I feel like a lot of teams will battle to get better seeds in the playoffs, but the Panthers don't care as much (like last year). They can win on the road and at home if their defense is locked in (like last year).

It helps make them more rested come playoff time.
I believe the thinking is why would you let him set the narrative? If Trump came out by himself, he could have set the narrative and put more pressure on Putin.

Now, on the other hand, maybe Trump knew what Putin was going to say (for the most part) and it knows it goes a long way in working to solve this problem.

Based on the past, I think you have to trust Trump on this.
So, Trump is paid for by Israel? It's not that everyone has said the same thing about Iran for the past few presidents, and he is the only one with the guts to do anything about it.

Ok.

It is a war. It is a war between Iran and Israel and we decided to get involved.


That is different than we are at war with Iran.

It seems that Iran did a theatrical counter attack and now the US isn't looking to strike again. Will that change? Maybe if circumstances change. But as of now, we are not at war with Iran and our involvement was to do what no other nation was capable of doing.
I would only be at war with them if I tried to destroy them completely (not just bomb a few spots I thought were crucial to a nuclear weapon).

Have we dropped bombs on a country before and not been at war with them? (That would be a "yes". The last few presidents have done this as well.)

Will this escalate into a war? Maybe. Maybe not. But it is not a war at this moment (it's why Trump didn't need Congress' permission).

And by the way, Shreveport might improve with a bombing run.
Iran has been at war for 40+ years and are currently in a war with Is real. We have not been at war nor are we’re currently in a war with Iran.

It's insane that we have entered another middle east war because of simple shite like this.


What war? We dropped bombs in their nuclear facilities. We didn’t start or enter a war.

I never care about the announcers, but he’s been awful most of the day today



He hasn’t recovered from Houston losing to the Gators!
They should Florida the 2 points they would have scored but the refs stopped the play. That was ridiculous.

(Before anyone comments, I know they won’t do that.)

This aged like milk as Montgomery signed with UGA this morning. Allegedly turned down a deal from UF worth 6 figures more than what UGA offered.


Well, UF has a good, young QB in Lagway and flipped FSU main QB target. If Montgomery wants to play, going to UGA seems like the better option.
Can anyone tell me where to find current wind speeds of a smaller location (I’m in Sebring)?
Not sure how accurate my weather app is (it’s showing 80+ mph).
I’m in Sebring, FL. It’s 11:45 pm and we’re getting hammered by winds. The Fox Weather app says 92 mph. Don’t know if that’s true but it sounds like it outside.
The weatherman on one of the local Tampa stations just said that because the main rain storms are on the north side, the thought is it may move north toward those storms. Does anyone know if that’s a thing? Never heard that before.

ride this thing out in Port Charlotte tomorrow.

You planning to ride it out where the hurricane is hitting

All the local station (from Tampa and Sarasota) still show the eye hitting near Sarasota. Is there a new track that shows it hitting closer to Port Charlotte?
quote:

Damn thing keeps sliding south. I have friends down in Fort Myers/Cape Coral that lost everything in Ian. I hate this for them.


The further south this thing goes, the more worried I get that Sebring might see the eye.
Where is the best place to get the latest track as it crosses Florida? I’m looking for rain totals and expected wind more inland than Tampa and Sarasota. Thanks in advanced!

Per Ryan Hall, all Waffle Houses from Tampa to Cape Coral are closing.


Now it just got real.
Is this thing moving further south or north of Tampa?

Hangit


quote:

It is now moved just N of me. That is better for you but is a suckopotamus for me.


Where do you find the latest track? There's a lot of different models out there.
