I'm predicting SNOW for the Super Bowl!!!

[flvegan]

It's going to be 30 m'fing degrees here tonight. I love watching football played in the snow!!

:eyes:

[LeftyMom]

1. It's 60 outside here right now.

Just thought I'd mention that. :D

[flvegan]

5. Yeah, and Sac town will never host a Super Bowl

because you can't provide the weather American football fans crave.

[LeftyMom]

7. Also, we lack a football stadium that holds more than a few thousand.

And sufficient hotel rooms. And a football franchise.

[BeachBaby]

14. Hey - at least you have reasonable excuses.

Philadelphia has all of those things, yet we will never see a Super Bowl. It sucks.

[LeftyMom]

15. That's because you have Philly sports fans.

:shrug:

If San Francisco gets around to building a new stadium to replace the ashtray by the bay, maybe they'll get one? That's as close as I'm likely to get, and I might be able to go that way- my Dad's had niner tickets forever, so he'd get to buy Super Bowl tix for face value if they hosted.

[BeachBaby]

17. The Niners are my favorite away team.

I have a whole bunch of Niner gear.

Since their hey day, I haven't seen much of them - they only televise on the East Coast when they're worth watching, apparently.

[LeftyMom]

18. Well, you haven't been missing much.

*sigh*

[BeachBaby]

20. They'll be back.

They're just going through their rebuilding process. After having talent like Montana, Young, Rice, Stokes, et al....they need time to find replacements. Those guys played the most beautiful football games I had ever seen.

Meanwhile, the Eagles DO have what they need, and they manage to fuck it up every year. :eyes:

[LeftyMom]

21. I know.

I took LK to his first game last year. My kid sister actually bought this jersey for him the day I told her I was expecting. That's the kind of fans my family are: their first thought for supplying the new baby was vintage Niner gear. :rofl: He has matching gold pants and a helmet, too.

[BeachBaby]

35. Cool pic!

Looks like he's sportin' a mohawk?

Love the jersey. Hope he enjoyed the game. :)

[LeftyMom]

37. Yeah, he's had one for years.

He had a great time. :)

[krispos42]

28. It was 46 here today

Minnesotans were all confused, wondering what that liquid stuff outside was...


:-)

[GOPisEvil]

2. Wow - that is colder than it is forecast to be here tonight.

How 'bout that?

[flvegan]

6. Our "freeze warning" is the news of the night.

But only because Ben Affleck isn't in town murdering hookers.

[GOPisEvil]

9. I spent 28 years in Texas.

I have heard enough "OH MY GOD - IT WILL BE UNDER 32 TONIGHT!!!! BRING IN YOUR PETS AND PLANTS!!! LEAVE A FAUCET DRIPPING!!!!! IF YOU DON'T WE WILL ALL DIE!!!!!!!" newscasts to last a lifetime.

[flvegan]

16. Heh.

It "snowed" (a/k/a a bare dusting) up in north Florida a number of years ago, and you'd have thought the world came to an end. People were trying to find snow tires. Snow tires for a dusting that was gone by 10 am. Hilarious.

[TZ]

3. I'd love to see a SB played in the snow

I would love to see a SB come to DC one day. Football is an all weather game!
BTW..HAHAHAHAHAHA! Nice to see after all your its 60 degree today comments that you are getting a taste of REAL winter.
Suck it up florida boy! :rofl:

[flvegan]

8. Well, you'll sure as hell never see a World Series played there.

:rofl:

God I kill me.

[TZ]

12. PFFFT!

Man if YOUR pathetic Tampa Bay Rays can be in the WS so can we (hopefully in this century....:))

[flvegan]

13. Keep the dream alive, Zoot.

Impossible dreams can come true.

This is the DU member formerly known as Lordy But the Nationals Suck.

[LeftyMom]

4. Is this code for "cocaine snorted off the gigantic fake tits of one of Tampa's many strippers"?

Because yeah, I think we can safely assume that's part of the pre-game festivities.

[flvegan]

10. Post-game for me.

[LeftyMom]

11. Assuming you were into coke, strippers or giant fake tits. Which you're not.

I know all of your weaknesses, *insert evil villain laugh here* and those aren't them. Sorry.

[PaddyBlueEyes]

19. I hope so..

that bodes well for the steelers..

[flvegan]

22. w00t!

Let's go Steelers!

[Rhythm]

23. Do you people even HAVE heaters in your houses?

30 degrees in Tampa is like 0 here...

which it was, last night. *ugh*

[flvegan]

24. Yeah, but they're worthless compared to a proper furnace.

It's basically air passed over heated coils and pushed into the living area.

[Rhythm]

25. Ah... so useless AND drying...

A word of advice... hoodies can be your friend. They beat the hell out of those wearable blankets on the infomercials!

[LeftyMom]

26. He does have a really nice hoodie. I don't want to think about what it cost me.

[Rhythm]

27. Probably about as much as some of the ones that Lyric and i have...

For what they charge, you'd think they made them out of spun gold...

[LeftyMom]

29. I grabbed this one at a concert, and of course concert merch is rediculous.

But it's nice, and he likes it, and I used it to win an argument (he told me not to buy him a t shirt, so I didn't) so it was well worth the crazy overpricing.

[Rhythm]

30. Rage?

yeah... concert merchandise is re-fuckin-diculous...

[LeftyMom]

31. Nah, I picked it up at a Rise Against show.

Great show- teeny tiny bar in a converted warehouse, packed to the gills.

[Rhythm]

32. Those are always the best shows, though...

Charlotte's best clubs always involved some reclaimed industrial/warehouse space...
and the best place i've EVER been was formerly an old factory in Atlanta, which is basically three clubs in one!

[LeftyMom]

34. I know.

I went and saw them again a few months ago in San Jose, and while that was still a pretty small show- 4K people in a college gym- it wasn't nearly as great as the really, really small show.

[no name no slogan]

33. Shit! It may be warmer in MN than FL tonight!

It's still in the mid-30s here. It was up to 45F during the day today.

[flvegan]

36. It got into the 60s today, but tonight...brrrrr.
