ABSOLUTELY!

The wife and I made our exit in October of 2022 for coastal GA, so I'm forever done with shoveling snow.

I never really put on more than a sweatshirt to go out and shovel predawn with temps between 15 to 25 degrees. Now if was before sunrise and barely 5 degrees I might put on two sweatshirts and shovel faster. :lol:

Below minus 10? I'd just pick up the phone, call work and tell 'em the car won't start (which could have been true 30% of the time).


Oh yeah, go SMU. Crush the Eagles; pluck every feather!!!

Slight chance of rain. About 30%. I can live with that.

That helps, but we need the wind to remain at the level of a light breeze.

Have you guys checked your tickets? It looks like SMU end zone seats are in sections F55-56. In the baseball layout, we'd be sitting between home plate and third base!

I know HC RL stated he coached at Fenway before, but is substitution a challenge because teams share the same sideline? I think that is what Jeff Hafley is describing in this interview.

Anyone want to clarify the issues at Fenway with regards to substitution> And is this a big deal?

With Rhett coaching, we've got a chance. Sonny was awful at finishing seasons at SMU.

Boston is a great place to visit, not so much in late December. At best it will be cold and cloudy.

We haven't won a bowl game since 2012 and have had really ugly games 2 of the last 3 we've played in, so hopefully this is the group that can change that. I'm expecting a low scoring (for us) slobber knocker type of game but will call it 27-20 SMU
