Now that we have a place in Perdido I would never go back. I think it's perfect here because it's still relatively uncrowded, but it's also super close to Pensacola.
We did the same thing. Used to love 30a but it’s a mass of humanity now. We take the family to Perdido Key and it’s one of the last places down there that still feels like it was 20+ years ago.

Yeah, if you’ve only watched episode then you probably formed a bad opinion of Ro. But keep in mind he was talking about his Freshman year. Episode 2 will change it.

Good for Sprinks. Need more mets to call out weather entertainers like Spann.

Yep. Love how they set that story up.

Watched the first two and had to stop so I could get some sleep. Was getting too amped up.
This is a top notch documentary.
The Rolando segment in the second episode will have you ready to bust some heads.

Moved my baby girl to Fairhope in August for school. Now, I am an absolute nervous wreck. I know my wife or I are going down before sunrise to get her. I can't believe this shite. Ughhhh.
Unless you’re on the bay, you’re generally fine in Fairhope because it’s inland. Biggest threat is falling trees. Better to be safe than sorry but don’t worry yourself about it too much if it remains a Cat 2 and it moves fast.

UA just released another statement. Kickoff is still set for 6:30.

At this point it looks like shifting kickoff back an hour might be the best option for safety but I think they’ll just roll with 630
It keeps nudging East as well. I think the game will spared at this rate.

It used to be worse. He would post screenshots without the names and it would be the less unhinged takes. Then the hoards of followers would pounce.

For sure, he’s not on Fauci’s level. But he’s just as good at making the “Get in there and make it about you” meme a reality. Honestly, I’m not anti-science or anything like that but I do think the TV Met industry has become too focused on engagement and promoting “Severe Weather Alert” days that feed the “We’re cancelling out of an abundance of caution” culture that too often harms small businesses even though there isn’t a drop of rain or a flake of snow. Spann is the face of that around here.
Anyway, let’s get back to the game since it looks like the forecast is more favorable. Sorry to derail.

Don’t want to derail the thread anymore but Spann goes the extra mile to make himself part of the story and doesn’t like detractors. He even goes as far as doxxing people and calling employers of people who have disagreed with him. He was straight up shaming people who suggested snow/ice leading up to Snowmageddon.
Basically the parallels are they have been very successful at building a brand, making a lot of people trust them, and creating the dynamic that pushing back at all is questioning the science. They both have an unhealthy obsession about their public perception and being a celebrity.
This is from living in Bham for most of my life and knowing people who have worked with Spann.
John Hope he is not.

Somebody said it on here but he really is Alabama’s version of Dr. Fauci. It was the most true thing I’ve ever read on this site. The parallels are uncanny.

For sure. He would also never lecture people about the dangers lightening at sporting events and then use the lightening delay at BDS to create funny social media content on the field.

Rick Karle even piggybacked on Spann’s “concern.”

Newest info shows less intensity with it speeding up.
If this storm is a non-factor on Saturday night then a local met is gonna be really upset.

This isn’t a political statement but at this point I hope Trump decides to stay in DC. Way too many other things for officials in Tuscaloosa to worry about outside of that.

I’m thinking the game is pushed back an hour at most. This storm will be a fast mover and be out by kick off. Tailgating will be a no go but I bet it doesn’t get pushed to Sunday.
If the storm is in North Alabama by afternoon, the game will go on as planned IMO.
The issue is we are probably under 24 hours from when they need to make a call on this because of all the logistics.

The track still calls for most of the storm to be in Alabama Saturday afternoon with Tuscaloosa still affected. If this current track holds for another day, they’ll move the game to another day.
