Holy crap!! That's scary. Long ago, when I was younger. I did a ten day backpack in the North Cascades. We were having lunch and looking at a mountain side where all the trees were broken in half. We finally figured out it was an avalanche that did it. What power!

Avalanches are terrifying. I used to do a lot of backcountry snowboarding but quit when I found out my wife was pregnant. That just changed the risk assessment calculation big time. We were pretty conservative with our decision making but the Colorado snowpack is fuging SKETCHY at its best. You take someone from Washington or California and have them dig a pit in Colorado and they just look at you like "What the FUG??!!!" while you're looking at the same pit like "Hmmm... better than I expected." 😂

      J Person article on Canales and game plan and Rico

      By strato · Posted

      I think you know. Apparently winning is secondary to Bryce’s development. Same as it has been.     In a way it may be good because we didn’t need to make the playoffs and extend this fuging charade about Bryce being the guy. Better in the long run if he gets enough rope to hang himself with.

      Dave Canales is not the problem. He just isn't

      I know DC is overthinking this and he really needs to be OC or HC, but how do you call plays with a QB that in all reality, shouldn't be starting. Bryce is wildly inconsistent. He should lean on Rico and the run game, but if he does and wins, it presents a false narrative that Bryce is better than he is and he's potentially stuck with him for another season. If he doesn't, he looks incompetent as a play caller, but it exposes the ugly side of his QB situation that he really does need a QB that can execute at minimum a basic NFL offense with some decent consistency.  I feel a little sorry for the guy because he was anchored with Young this season and even more weight with Dalton getting a 2 year deal. He has very little to work with at the most important position on his team and it's not his doing. The trade deadline was approaching and it was plainly obvious we needed to do something but we didn't for whatever reason.  I don't think he's a complete bonehead and don't know what he's supposed to do. Win games and potentially keep Bryce or lose them by putting the weight on Bryce's shoulders. Either he succeeds or fails.  As a coach I know you're supposed to play to win the game, but do you win now at the ultimate long term detriment to your team and locker room?
