  1. Damn! EDC getting it done. Ex-Packers pass rusher Za'Darius Smith returning to Ravens on four-year, $35M contract https://www.nfl.com/news/za-darius-smith-ravens-ex-packers-pass-rusher-returning-four-year-35m-contract
  2. Still work to be done, but 9 picks gives them options, and the draft class is pretty deep overall in their areas of need. They might not be done in FA either, but any additional signing will probably be the more typical shop for value to add depth without breaking the bank type deal.
  3. Ravens sign Morgan Moses, a solid move after signing Marcus Williams. He will presumably replace Villanueva at RT, so a definite upgrade. They filled 2 major areas of need in FA, and now have a lot of flexibility heading into the draft, with 9 picks in the first 4 rounds .
  4. The advertised h5 look on the EPS is somewhat interesting for the very end of the month, but meh, its almost April. Doesn't excite me, but something for a few here to track I guess.
  5. I haven't read it but someone mentioned it, maybe in a YouTube video I was watching, and I did search it and read a synopsis. The only reading I do these days is either weather related or technical stuff related to work.
  6. If only we could approach the speed of light, I suppose we could effectively avoid aging. Ofc we would essentially have no mass so vanity concerns are kind of moot at that point lol. Esoteric stuff but interesting.
  7. The math is necessary if one wants a profound understanding of how the physical world works. Ofc that's not for everyone. I was teaching process control theory today to a diverse group(mathematically), and when I put up a slide depicting a simple system with a first order response in Laplace notation, the reactions ranged from 'that looks Greek' to 'yeah I remember seeing that once'. I have a bag of tricks for teaching the concepts even for those who are somewhat math deficient.
  8. Best to read it and not make assumptions. Click bait syndrome. The probability is pretty low based on historical data.
  9. I don't recall off the top of my head. Psu I am sure can give the particulars leading up to it. I was in Baltimore until early afternoon that day, and it 'wasn't happening'. Driving back east it became a light to moderate snow, but my yard was suppose to get a foot. That ended up maybe 10 or so miles east, so it didn't miss by much here. At least I salvaged a low end warning event.
  10. It was precarious as I recall, but everyone was sort of spoiled from the previous winter, so believing it would happen was easy. Suddenly we were on a heater where big snow events seemingly materialized with ease lol.
  11. 2016-17 was pretty good too. Also had the big beach snowstorm in early Jan. I was in Rehoboth back to back Januarys for both of those storms. Eastern parts of the MA can get in on late developing/ Miller B events, which are common in Ninas. The storm no one wants to mention in December 2010 was good for much of Delaware, especially to the east. Even had 5" here.
  12. This would be a good move. Major area of need, and a guy we hated to see go.
  13. ^Your self imposed rule about not posting snow maps beyond 5 days didn't last I see.
  14. He will probably fall off a cliff like Manning did. He can't move well in the pocket anymore, so TB better have an all world OL.
  15. He is an unlikeable, disingenuous egomaniac. What happened to being a better husband and spending more time with the kids? lol He was always coming back, just a matter of where imo. I think he wanted to play in SF, but they probably wouldn't meet his demands. Denver was no longer an option so there sat TB, a team with no starting QB. Also the timing of him announcing this- he shat on NCAA selection Sunday, taking the limelight away from those kids and shining it on himself.
  16. No takers, so it wont happen lol.
  17. Maybe Roethlisberger can unretire next.
  18. It got pretty mild out that way compared to the airmass we had yesterday. Probably mid 40s with a SW wind. Show us another photo of your yard later today. It didn't get above 35 here until around 2pm yesterday, and I have no snow on the ground.
  19. It likely won't materialize, but that look would have been nice a few weeks ago.
  20. High of 38. Been outside most of the day. Brisk but awesome with the warm sun. Cut up and stacked some oak to be split (later) for next winter, and continued to pick away at the mulching.
  21. Yeah the 84 storm was fun but also depressing as a Colts fan. We knew that was inevitable though, as the drunken asshole owner had been shopping them around for years. May he rest in piss.
  22. Since I have lived over here, I have seen one snow "event" in April (the 5th maybe?), and it was 2" and fell in the evening. Cant recall the year but probably early/mid 90s. Once it stopped it melted. Barely a trace the next morning lol. It was wrap around from a big, slow moving storm off of the NE coast that retrograded. Very odd way to get snow and could probably only happen in the Spring. Have had some good March snow events in the past several years ofc, including the one in 2018 on the 20th. I remember a 3" snowfall at the end of March and it was pretty localized over this way- it fell at night(1990 maybe?). Other than that the only significant late March snow event that stands out was when I lived up in Carroll county, and it was the 1984 March 29th (Mayflower) storm. That was around 6", and probably the most sloppy wet snow ever- more like compacted slush during the daylight hours. Ratios were probably like 4:1.
  23. That look will probably never come to fruition, but how funny would it be if it did when it would be of little use. But yes pretty much all of the long term guidance is suggesting a chilly period for the end of the month. We need a pretty anomalously cold pattern to get it done at that point though. My interest is rapidly waning and the chances of getting significant snow in the lowlands at the end of March is pretty low.
