I will bring it up because no one is talking about it. With Milton expected to hit Wed, do we expect to play Sat?? Arrangements would need to be made soon if it's going to switch to Denton or something else. 

The team would need time to get out.

I would think at this point plans should already have been made to move the game. If nothing has happened, I fear this one gets moved to later in the year.

This hurricane is not going to be nice to Florida.

I guess I just don't understand why no one is considering flooding. Does Florida not flood? I mean just because the storm is gone doesn't mean there won't be high waters left over. But I don't really know, just going by what Helene left behind.

Because south Florida.....is not expected to get that much rain from Milton. (this could change). As of right now......I looked up the 10 day for Boca......about 1/2 inch of rain between now and Friday. On the other hand.....Tampa is expected to get almost 9 inches of rain Wednesday. I know those rainfall estimates are somewhat iffy. But that's why.....I think our game will be fine. USF and UCF on the other hand.....

Thanks for the clarification. What about airports and flooding?

The scene itself is funny enough, If you know that bit of info it makes it funnier though.

When the movie came out, having Barbara Billingsley deliver that line was the joke. But everyone knew who she was then. Now it is like you said, basically some kind of trivia point.

My son lives in Ft. Lauderdale and they are expecting rain and wind but nothing serious. He is scheduled to fly to Panama City Thursday and as of today Delta said there should be no problem. However hurricanes are unpredictable and also spin off tornados so we will see.

I edited my post to make more sense.

      Fun bowl games, not quite so fun playoff games. Maybe there's still something to be said for the bowl games after all.

      It will take some time for the fans of these schools to adjust to losing a few games a year when they're in the new "P2" consisting of maybe 40 teams max. However, filling an average 80k stadium for maybe 20 games/wk is only about 1.5M people demanding tickets for each week's game. Out of over 300M people, I suspect they can still keep filling the stands, other than the few days of "dud" games or bad weather. Now, I'm not sure about TV ratings, but there's so many T-shirt fans of these top 40 schools that I think they'll still watch. I hope this greed and the extreme powering of the top few schools ends up biting them in the a$$, but I'm afraid they'll be successful. I don't mind them breaking away, I just wish they'd be forced to give up any relation to the school. Go create a stand-alone semi-pro league independent of the universities. I haven't followed pro sports in decades, but my quick check shows the Cowboys have been varying between 6-9 and 13-3 for the past 20 years with minimal playoff success but from what I hear, they have plenty of demand for tickets, even when they suck. I realize they are a somewhat special team, but then again, so are these P2 teams, so I think the comparison is reasonably legit.

      Lot of fun bowl games so far. Toledo vs Pitt last night was incredible. This was another great game as well.

      Portal QB Emmet Brown - San Jose St

      Think this is staff trying to balance the QB Room out Have a 1 year starter, plus solid backup, the back up plays Sr Year while Jimmerson is the back up. Then after a few years to develop Jimmerson is ready to rock. I think Jimmerson may win the job as a RS Freshman over this guy. But it provides you with some solid QB play for competition as well as depth.

      You don't have to, but the reality is that is where this is headed.
