Scary looking debris signature on that one after it came through Troy. Local weather guys just let out an audible gasp when it came up on radar.

Sounds like it dropped down around Lakewinds golf course. Damage around Camp ASCCA and Horshoe Bend. Luckily not many folks live up that way. Looked nasty on radar for about 10-15 minutes.

Passed probably 10 miles to my north. Got a little uncomfortable for a second.

Sitting here at Lake Martin near Dadeville wishing I would have stayed in BHM. How much longer am I going to be sweating out whether the stuff west of us comes our way?

Can’t happen. Top 4 SEC teams must be in separate regions.

I've started thinking about getting sweet 16 tickets in Atlanta. Looks like it's sessioned and I'd need to buy both to guarantee anything? Has anyone bought tickets yet?
I bought mine a couple of weeks ago. You can either buy tickets for Friday (2 games), Sunday (1 game) or buy all 3 games as a package. There are no single game tickets for Friday as far as I’m aware.

Looks like it is actually a rule if the top four teams from a conference are seeded as a #4 or better.

I've read people say that the top 4 SEC have to be in separate regions, which would flip Michigan St. and Tennessee in this scenario. I don't know if that's an actual rule though.

Eh, it’s a little confusing. There is a 31L and a 31C but not a 31R. 31L is tiny runway that looks like a taxiway if you’re using 4L to taxi. Still a massive frick up but I can see how it could happen if you’re task saturated and having a bad day.
Midway is actually even more confusing than that. The runways in that section are 31L, 31C, 31R if landing from the south and 13L, 13C, 13R if landing from the north. Therefore, 31L and 13L are on opposite sides of 31/13C. I could see a scenario where the PJ pilot heard to cross 31L and read it in his head as to cross 13L. Still, not holding short of 31C is a massive frick up.

You like Duke because they’ve been blowing out teams? You realize Arkansas would be one of the toughest 2 or 3 games Duke has played since December?

Overrated implies that there are other teams that should be ranked ahead of them. By any objective measure, that’s just simply not the case. That’s the biggest problem with your opinion
Will I get screwed by the ESPN playoff tiebreaker?
Posted by wareagle47 on 12/9/24 at 8:11 pm
Looks like my league will end in a four way tie for the last playoff spot. I’m 4-0 against the three teams I will be tied with, but have scored the least amount of points amongst that group on the season.
The way I interpret the rules on the ESPN site is that the H2H tie breaker is invalid if the teams have played an uneven number of games against one another and it goes to total points scored instead. Two of the teams I’m tied with have played 5 games against the tied group while my team and another have only played 4.
Seems like an odd thing to throw into the tiebreaker scenarios. Not sure why it’s not just win %, but I’m thinking I’m going to catch the short end of the stick here. Anyone else experience this?

re: Suddenly Flush with RBs - Which One to Deal?
Posted by wareagle47 on 11/1/23 at 8:03 am to Jumbo_Gumbo
Bumping this back up to revisit after this week. Would I be crazy to offer Gibbs for K. Allen? I don’t love the uncertainty around Gibbs usage once Montgomery comes back and feel like Allen’s usage rate will only go up with Williams hurt.
It doesn’t feel like Pollard would be enough to get Allen after a couple of poor weeks and I think I’d like to hang on to ETN.
Alternatively, I’m wondering if I might be able to buy low on Kupp and get him by offering Pollard.

One of the other guys in my league has T. Hill, K. Allen, and Nakua. Could propose an Etienne for K. Allen?
Other potential trade partner has Kupp, McLaurin, and DJ Moore and is hurting for RBs.

Suddenly Flush with RBs - Which One to Deal?
Posted by wareagle47 on 10/23/23 at 9:19 pm
All of a sudden I find myself with what feels like a deep stable of solid RBs. Currently on the roster:
- T. Etienne
- T. Pollard
- J. Taylor
- J. Gibbs
- B. Hall
- D. Achane (IR)
I'd like to try to move one of these for a WR2. I'm light on WRs, with D. Adams and C. Godwin as the starters and less than desirable backups after that.
Which one of these RBs would you fade the rest of the year and look to deal? I was thinking I'd wait and see if Gibbs puts up another solid week next week and then try to sell high before Montgomery comes back but interested in other opinions.

re: Alabama Basketball Shooting - Brandon Miller Involvement
Posted by wareagle47 on 2/21/23 at 9:53 pm to ReauxlTide222
I find it weird that nowhere does it seem to state where Miller actually was during the shooting. Did he just drive up, leave his car and run off? How would he not know about the shooting if there are supposedly bullet holes in his car?
I'm not claiming he's lying or anything but just seems like there are details missing that makes things not add up. That lack of clarity makes its easier for the media to get out into the open field with sensational accusations.
If I were the university (or Oats) and Miller is clearly innocent of any wrongdoing I'd want all of the information out in the open for everyone to see. The fact that it isn't seems odd to me.

I find it odd that the article said nothing about Miller’s state of mind or concern for the situation. For all we know he’s furious, scared, or freaking out and just wants Miles to get his shite and frick off.
If this were the case wouldn't it be more likely that Miller would have immediately driven off after dropping off the gun? Not hanging around long enough for his car to get shot at?

Long way to go but both Jerry Palm and Lunardi's most recent brackets have Auburn in the 8-9 range in Birmingham. No way they would do that to the #1 seed right? Those first and second round games in Birmingham would be wild with both Auburn and Bama playing there.

Question for the experts in this thread. Planning to gift a bottle of bourbon or whiskey to a business associate of mine who knows much more about this stuff than I do.
Any recommendations for something that would be appreciated by someone like that? Willing to spend up to $200.
