Well we have a high of 32° tomorrow, so there’s that lol.
@Drewbydoo looks like you may get your wish tomorrow!
Im not a fan of either team playing tonite, but I can’t stand the thought of an all B10 final, so I gotta pull for ND.

Which loss would you consider worse, ND/NIU or our #1 BB team getting blown out by Florida?

NIU 100%. Blowouts happen in basketball. Alabama got blown out multiple times last year but made the Final 4. We could just as easily blow Florida out at TBA. That loss to NIU was worth about 1.5 or 2 losses imo. Other than losing to a FCS team, that was as egregious as it gets. The amount of talent Notre Dame has compared to NIU, it’s not even debatable.

That’s what I figured you’d say, but the day we lost to Florida, it really sucked. Now that a few days have passed, I agree with you.

Also, upsets/surprise results are more common in college basketball than football because any team can have a cold shooting night and basketball is more prone to being dominated by one player when they are hot.

Are electric scooters pulling a sled(s) considered safe?

Before I moved, there was a pasture across the street that kids used for fun when it snowed. They'd take 4 wheelers and rope and they'd pull sleds like a boat pulls a skier. Looked like some fun to me. Made me wish I were younger. We did a bunch of stuff that folks today wouldn't consider "safe". We even didn't wear seatbelts in the car!! Of course, we didn't have seatbelts back then, but point is that we somehow had fun and survived.

Well, it snowed over night. Didn't hear a peep from Mother Nature.

Looks to be 2-3 inches outside. Nobody is up playing in it yet.

I'm sure school is out today. Around these parts all you have to do

is say snow is on its way & every thing will shut down.
