    Latest NHC track projection has the previously scheduled gametime position of the center of what is left of the storm close to Springhill.

    Decision looking better with every passing hour. And the $$$ decision looking even better than that.

    [QUOTE=HogDawg;1261596]Oh sure. Wait until the very last minute so none of us have adequate time left to cancel our hotel reservations without penalty. This is exactly why you're not in charge, DogsWin.

    You are DAMNED RIGHT, because if I was in charge WE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN PLAYING THIS GAME ON A THURSDAY NIGHT TO BEGIN WITH!!!

    I'm getting into the heart of the storm now. I'm at work (the big airport) and we had to turn the generator on after losing power at 6:30pm. So we are taking the beating now and will work hard to get this thing availible for commercial service as soon as we can.

    Guys - come on...for the safety of the fans and the players. The 30 mph wind and the rain at 80 % chance of heavy rains and is something I really don't feel safe in. They did the right thing. The game will be on a Saturday and the chance of a really nice crowd is improved...

    Not any more. It's headed straight for SBC.

    It's not headed here. All we have is rain and some eastside wind, but we won't get much else. The lights haven't even flickered...so we just turned them out and ate dinner in the dusk of the Quarter!

    Don't forget about 60% chance of "thunderstorms." If aTm would have driven to Shreveport, the game would have been cancelled due to lightning in the area there would be no make-up game. It would have been written off. And the safety factor has to be taken into consideration. Not just for the locals...but for everyone driving. I hate it & it sucks but I think they made the correct decisions.

    That we can agree on. I've hated the "Thursday" thing from the beginning.

    I'm sure A&M would have agreed to that. This ain't Madden.

    You'll be able to "stubhub" them just fine on this site. And we don't charge a fee.
