As I watch our chances for snow go poof as usual I'm plotting another Tug Hill trip to Locona NY. I know Katabatic is down. Who else is coming to snow camp? I'm thinking over the next couple of week things are going to get wild again up there. This time I'm taking snowshoes. 

PM me - plausibly interested for sure, especially with some notice. Happy to meet up beforehand sometime to confirm we all like each other too.

Came here to say this exact thing. Bias gets involved for most in here, even some of those who really know their stuff. I think it’s fine to have a thread like this where people can give their analysis but also express emotional reactions. It would just be really nice to have one thread that’s JUST analysis without all the added noise. 

It’s a horrible idea, honestly, and no shade to you or whoever suggests it when it always comes up. This is a community to talk about the weather - hobbyists, meteorologists, weenies, everyone in between. If you don’t want to see someone’s opinions mute them, but we start deciding who is worthy of posting and splintering threads off… nobody will be happy.

lol, love the boo birds from the world’s best fans

Wow what a play by the Niners.

[CAPE]

Hard not to pull for them with all the injuries they have/have had all season.

Plus Shannahan is a much for likable guy to root for compared to Sirriani 

 

[nj2va]

Ugh, another interception.

Sorry. Reflecting on it now, my suggestion was probably too polarizing, and you’re right—it wouldn’t make people happy.

He is a top tier HC in the league.

As a Commanders fan I was hoping he would take over for his Dad but of course Snyder ruined that.

Man, another WC game coming down to the last possession.  What a great weekend of football

[Jrlg1181]

Yes  ! 

[Scraff]

Eagles. Bu-bye. Thanks for trying.

Suck it Philly

It’s a great day when the Eagles lose

I guess they're gonna wanna tar and feather Sirriani now? Lol

[CAPE]

I don't hate the Eagles, but the Niners are tough to even be in the playoffs. They have a great coach, and the reason I want Klint Kubiak as coach of the Ravens is because he is from the Shanahan tree, plus he became the OC under Mike Macdonald, who the ravens should have made HC instead of letting him walk. Plus he made Sam Darnold look really good and less mistake prone, which is a major accomplishment lol.

He is a weird coach. But he has gotten to 2 superbowls and won one in the last few years.

Nick isn't going anywhere. Patullo on the other hand...

Can't imagine he's (patullo) gonna stick around. That would be unbelievable.

Lifelong birds fan here and that outcome was entirely predictable. Game was a summary of their season. Their good defense gives the offense ample opportunities to win, and the (highest paid as a share of salary cap) offense in the league can't execute. Pathetic!

Yeah. I mean a learning curve was to be expected and continuity in a coordinator can be important but would bet an awful lot that he is not here next year.

What I’m currently having trouble understanding is if you read what I actually said. I said clearly in that reply that there’s absolutely a place for all that and that the current thread should not go away. I just think it would be nice to have a separate thread just with the pros  so people can have the option to get less biased analytical breakdowns. 
 

I’d never suggest shutting down anyone’s voices in here. Seeing all the weather enthusiasts come together is a great thing. I apologize if my opinion came across like I was wanting to shut certain people up in here. I guess it just gets exhausting coming into the analysis thread to see it be overwhelmed by emotional reactions a lot of the time. I will take your advice and just start muting the accounts that tend to clog it up the most with that stuff.
