    MNF is there next week, I would imagine if the damage not just for the stadium but the area is as bad as they say they will make a quick decision and shift it to Baltimore

    Sat at rain delay at a college football game and the field took on a ton of water. Maybe not that much, but enough to flood everything inside the 10-yard-line to the end zone seats.

    It took a little over an hour, but once the rain stopped, the stadium crew cleared it out pretty quickly.

    Water likely won't be a problem on the field. Damage everywhere else likely will be.

    Memphis at USF already got pushed back to Saturday, but I’m having a hard time seeing them produce a playable field that quickly.

    More likely they switch to a neutral site.

    Had high winds and rain all night long, and at some point the power went out. Wind and rain have stopped, seems ahead of forecast.

    If George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic aren't scheduled for a benefit concert at Tropicana Field by the end of the week, there is no justice in this world.

    Also, local Waffle House is closed.

    Jacksonville is spending a fortnight in London, so that would make sense as a neutral location if needed.

    Doesn’t Catturd know that the wind speeds keep changing because Democrats are raking the wind?

    1. Dog 1 (who hates the rain) went out to the backyard to pee three times in the storm.
    2. Dog 1 saved all his poop for this morning's real walk. Two bags' worth.
    3. Dog 2 will have nice ponds to splash in for the next few days.
    4. Our dead tree in the backyard that I REALLY need to have cut down didn't fall on the house.

    About as successful a hurricane as could be hoped for.

    The double-bagger always seems to happen at the early stages of a long walk.
