Lunar eclipse and comet tonight

August 21, 2017. It will be be GLORIOUS! Please let the sky be clear on that date. I witnessed a total eclipse of the sun at Myrtle Beach in 1970. Yes, I'm old. Put this on your bucket list. I'll be going down to Anderson, SC to see it. If the weather there is not clear, I'll have to go westward to see it. Right down the middle of Heartland, USA. WOOHOO. Don't miss this, it will rock your soul. Solar eclipses are astoundingly beautiful, are very rare, and unlike lunar eclipses, they are only visible to a narrow strip on the Earth.

We were at a concert listening to some Jazz with some Sinatra thrown in, and I took a break to go outside and view the eclipse.  It could barely be seen.  

Yeah, it was pretty wimpy. Moon was in penumbra rather than umbra, so it wasn't even in Earth's full shadow. Brightness of moon was only knocked down by 4%.

    • I don't think Dave touches the defense. That might be a mark against him but definitely a huge red flag for evero. He refuses to run anything other than soft zone and when you don't get pressure that's an awful scheme
    • You don't have to convince me. I think not picking up the option should absolutely be firmly on the table but I just do not see Tepper and Morgan doing that for previously stated reasons. Therefore I'm not going to bother entertaining the notion. Just hoping we actually get real viable competition. If that doesn't happen at the minimum then my perception of that is complete and utter professional malpractice.
    • It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”
