Steelers vs Bills postponed to Monday

[G2]

Yep.

But leave it to some of our fans to put their macho silliness on blast in this thread for all of us to see.

Dude, so far this is a dusting.

Officials don’t have the luxury of hindsight. They have to make decisions before an event happens.

The whining over the league/state deciding to move the game is really hilarious.

I'm mostly having fun with sarcasm, because its easy. And I hate the Bills and their fans. But at least they can roast.

What’s the reason for moving the game? Obviously the weather. But is it for the safety of the fans? Safety for players getting to the game? Safety during the game? Have they said anything

I read something day or so ago, that so much snow is expected, and that causes the safety concerns, not the cold.
They would rather people stay home on sunday, all people int the area.

It'd be funny if the real snow storm comes on Monday lol, then what would they do

They have to play it. The state of emergency is what got the game postponed. But what if it comes on Monday? Play it, with or without fans.

Is it more so that fans, and even media, can't fly in or get to the stadium, as opposed to cold weather.

Accurate. It's not good here right now. Even for the people who live here and know how to navigate it.

 

[hutch1254]

Just saw live footage of the stadium. Its treacherous weather. Looks like an Antarctic storm going on. I don't think the cameras could even show the game.

Accurate. It's not how cold it is or how much snow. That's not the issue. It's visibility. The wind is moving snow in a manner where I can't see you if you were standing 3 feet in front of me. It's happening mainly in and around the stadium and the major roads that get you in and out of that area. In the meantime we're still walking around in shorts like usual.

It might!

The whole HighMark parking area and roads is insane. New stadium construction is ongoing right beside the current site. On a perfect day traffic is a total nightmare so this is a good logistical decision. I was at the Cowboys Bills game and egress from parking meant not moving for over an hour just in rain. Can’t fathom how insane this would be in a blizzard

Such a soft society anymore.

Would you want to play in that crap??

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Post of the afternoon

No, it isn’t.

 

[Beaker42]

Only a ***** doesn’t play in this weather

Whatever

 

[Beaker42]

Let them play in the elements. I say do not deny football weather loving fans from watching a football weather game.

Viva No Domes!

The game would be absolutely unplayable and unwatchable.

So now the first game on Sunday is the Packers victory over the Cowboys.

And weak trolls like you would be celebrating too. I guess the Cowboys have been triggering your anger for months and then making the playoffs.

Don't worry, your Commanders will be two games better next year kid!!

That's what you are hoping for?

Sybia, how hard is it to walk on water?

 

[Motorola]

Lmao at all the "macho" weirdos in this thread. Good that this has been postponed a day. This isn't just normal snow. This is blizzard conditions and a safety concern traveling wise to and from the stadium.

All the people saying they should play this are sitting on their couches in their warm homes, Clowns.

And - what if this very severe snow accumulation occurred the Saturday before and that Sunday foor weeks ago before the Cowboys game in Buffalo?
Members here would have blown up the board with if no postponement was done.

 

[Sydla]

Sybia, how hard is it to walk on water?

Easy. Just need the right shoes.

 

[G2]

As was predicted, just over a foot accumulated, not sure why all the hysteria. They do a good job amping people up, calling things a blizzard or the storm of the year.
Winter in WNY has been ridiculously mild. The Lake won't even freeze.

 

[shabazz]

1000% and this commissioner definitely sits down to pee.

It's a good match for the NY governor that stands up to pee.
