That's great news and is a great experience for her! Trying to get mine to look at the abroad program they have in London. She initially wanted to and now is not so sure.

Unpopular opinion here. Sign Trevor Bauer at league minimum. If he hasn't learned and still is a jackass, the release him. He wants to prove himself again and might be worth the risk.

Cowser is still hot!

Just on a teams call with some of my development team in NYC area...It was wild seeing the effects of the earthquake as it hit. 4.7 is large for this part of the country and I'm Hoping that there isn't a lot of unseen damage since a lot of the buildings up there are a lot older and were built probably without considerations of earthquakes.

Yes! That came out of nowhere.

This line went straight down 70 from both of you and now we have some nice rumbling thunder and lightning here too.

My son's teammate has a brother who starts at UConn this year....#12 --> Spencer. He played at Rutgers and transferred to UConn this year. I hear he is projected to be a third round pick. Their older brother played lacrosse at Loyola for 4 years, won the Tewaarton award. He then played a year of basketball at Northwestern. He was playing G-League ball for the Warriors and was called up on a 2 way contract a few weeks ago. Scored his first points and Chris Paul got the game ball for him. Amazingly athletic gene pool.

It makes no sense why the Bears gave him away for nothing. Fields was worth a lot more than that.

Just flipped to snow in Mt. Airy.

I thought that the fire alarm "escape" knocking the senior citizens was good too.

According to Phil.....no snow. :-)

Red skies in the morning......?

Concert was great! They played Intolerance :-) The only bad taste in my mouth was that they couldn't set up all of their stage and lighting because the Baltimore Arena is so small to fit everything. Funny thing is that this popped up today on Youtube and these guys get it --> Not everyone is wired for Prog Rock. Too different form the mainstream music with all the basic timing and autotuning. My 18 y/o daughter somehow fell in love with RHCP and Weezer. Saw both of them with her last year. She has tickets to Greenday/Smashing Pumpkins this summer. Also loves Billy Joel and is starting to listen to pink floyd. Somehow I must have raised her to appreciate more than Taylor Swift :-)

If you haven't listened to their latest from 2019, you should. It's really good. Going to see A Perfect Circle, Puscifer and Primus in April in Atlantic city as well. Never seen a Perfect Circle, so happy to get the chance.

Goes all the way back to 1996 and my first horrible fantasy football team. :-) The team was so bad that some of the folks in that league tried to change the name to ToolSh1ts.

Anyone else heading to CFG tonight to see Tool?

Merry Christmas everyone!

Sorry I didn't see this. Was in bed with Covid since Thursday. The rumble was in Mt Airy and some folks in New Windsor heard it as well.

Anyone feel/hear a very loud rumble which lasted about 3 seconds at approximately 3:45? the house shook, and others a few miles away felt it as well. USGS has no earthquake listed, so just curious. @Eskimo Joe, Any fire activity that you know of? My mother usually calls me when something close comes over the scanner, but she didn't.

I say we just forget about the Reaper and crown you the "Reefer". You can help everyone relax come late December relax if we don't see any snow.

It really is. I don't have any education in weather but really enjoy coming here to learn and post observations. I really wish that some folks can understand what banter is and where it should be posted. I'm sure that I am guilty of bantering outside of that thread, but ti does get cumbersome trying to read through the "junk" to get to the legit posts and real discussion. It would be nice to be bale to create a thread and only let certain folks --Mostly Red Taggers and a select few be allowed to post within. That would definitely keep down on the noise.

BWI: 44.3” DCA: 33.6” IAD: 44.2” RIC: 26.4” Tiebreaker SBY: 23.5”

Seems like getting some of the young ones from the farm system is paying off. I wasn't expecting much this season and still am not holding high hopes, but will be happy as long as it lasts. I do think that Ovi will take longer to get to Gretzky though than most people think.

Picked the middle child up from Towson this afternoon and it was bad. Then turned around and went to pick #3 up from Philly. I left at 4L30 and didn't arrive up there until 8:45. We just pulled in. Hit that heavy line on the way back on 95 near White Marsh. It was intense and the visibility was probably only about 100 feet at times. Off to bed.

Just saw a commercial for a NFL game on Friday afternoon.....I really miss the days when football was just on Sunday afternoons and Monday night.
