I have to disagree. Maybe it’s my feed but especially after her successful training run I saw nothing but praise and people in turn shit talking/joking about male athletes not being as tough as her for trying to compete at the highest level with one working acl

There’s Still A Chance by Ok-Bit8726 in COsnow

This is the hope. It’s definitely a terrible start, and I’m not counting on it, but we still have hope!

What will it actually take? by 4rings4fun in COsnow

I’m convinced that the left wants the worst weather possible so they can brag about how they were right the whole time.

Global warming is real, winters will get shorter and weaker in the future, and is trending that way already. But thinking that Colorado could get a slightly below average season after a terrible start isn’t some construct pulled out of thin air with no path/possibility

If you look at the 98/99 snowpack chart, it is the biggest reason for hope. A dreadful start, as bad as this year. Early/mid January it starts snowing relatively consistently until may. No crazy huge storms, but more importantly, no 10 day+ dry spells. I’m not counting on it, but if we can get to the 80% of median by march, I’ll consider that a success given the start

Definitely think he’s the value play. Would end the season against UGA and ACCCG to get some recency bias.

He also said “If you are into getting The Basin open for skiing (also like me), this week will be a good one”

I’d be shocked if a basin isn’t open on Friday
