It's gone snow.

Seriously how are they going to have a game Sunday?  The players can't practice (or so I've seen on the news sites) and is it going to get warm enough to melt the snow by then?

The board for volunteers to get paid $10/hr and free tickets to shovel snow is overloaded right now, taking dozens of attempts to get someone.

 

If it is like the past: You'll reserve your name and they'll tell you a time to show up.  They'll work 24/7 on multiple shifts, turn on the lights and shovel at night.  Then use giant custom made slides to make it go down to the field where it will be trucked out.

 

They are off Tuesdays normally, the roads will be open by tomorrow (probably tonight).  They'll practice tomorrow, did a lot of film today, some players still got together.  This is not all of Buffalo.  This would be like Matthews and Balentine getting a blizzard with the rest of the area having nothing but blue skies or a little bit of dust.

i was up in Canton, NY a few years ago on a business trip

there was a bar with an old picture hanging on the wall... it was a snow scene with just a guy sitting on what looked like a fire hydrant/log. when they asked the bartender about it, he said, "oh no... that guys sitting on top of a telephone pole."

I think anyone raised in WNY has a photograph of themselves walking down the street doing one of the following:

A) Touching a street light

B) Holding a street sign in their hand

C) On top of a vehicle.

D) Standing/Jumping off their roof in to snow.  (if you've never done this, do this.)

Kiko Alonso...

 

 

 

After getting a quick workout in at Ralph Wilson Stadium on Wednesday, Alonso presumably: Went home, walked outside into sub-freezing temperatures, removed his shirt, and sat down in a snow bank. As if that weren’t enough, Alonso then covers his legs entirely with snow … and playfully calls for his dog.

I don't know if ya'll know Alonso much, but he is pretty much ...dense.

I dont understand why cities like buffalo dont have some roads or bridges heated like some in Norway have?

Doesn't have to be the entire city but key roads here and there.

Politics.  Let me explains NY politics to you.  They're very different then anything you've ever heard.  (see: NY's gun laws)

 

In NY you get someone with a crazy whacky idea.  We'll use heated bridges.  Then you get that person trumpeting up the idea thinking of the children.  Then there is a committee formed at a huge expense.  Then the committee finds it would be a good idea to suggest this idea to the NY State House. At that point it is then examined again for millions of dollars and studied to make sure it does not discriminate against homosexuals, minorities, religion, non-religious beliefs, women, men who may one day be women and women who may one day be men, as well as smurfs.  If it is alright by them then they suggest make some new bill.  At the point that it gets to the next level the entire State looks at it and realizes it is West of Albany so they do not want to do anything with it.  So, it goes back to the House.  The House amends it to include building a new art studio for transgenders Dutch Authors of the 14th century and then passes it back up.  At that point it flies to the Governor.  Cuomo then looks it over and decides that the road may allow cars to carry bullets, but not guns, and then strikes it down.  In a huge plea with everyone it gets all the way back up to Cuomo with the Dutch Authors and now a re-educational program for Cubans to remember their heritage complete with a new annual parade in NYC and an act to clean up the Hudson (again).  Voila, the Gov signs it.  It's a law.

 

Then Elaine and her life partner, Susanne, sue the state because the new road has crosswalk signs that feature a man and a woman and take it to court.  The State is then ordered to pay the couple $1.7mm in damages and the road is scrapped.
