Feel so fortunate not to be in these frigid conditions sweeping through so many places; feel for you if you are having to deal with it.
3rd year serious drought.... day after day mid to upper 30's in the evening mid 60's in the afternoon.

john litweiler, just days after his house and contents were destroyed is now hosting his regular gig. john is a trooper!!!
Oh geez....so sorry to heat this

Different strokes, I guess.
I'm going to the Kings-Ducks outdoor game later this month, which I imagine will be fairly garbage in terms of ice quality... but it'll be enjoyable nonetheless. I don't think I'll experience -21 Celsius temperatures like I did at the Heritage Classic, so I got that going for me.
I do agree that the sheer quantity of these outdoor games will render them fairly inane after a while. The NHL really needs to scale back on these things... once every couple of years is plenty.
....or 1 singular EVENT per year
That said those 'north of the boarder' want an outdoor game badly, so 1 in USA & 1 in Canada each year or alternating I think is more reasonable.
I actually like that the conditions aren't predictable like the indoor rinks....puts hockey for those few games in the same realm of football or baseball where wind/weather may come into play. In the winter classic they changed ends at the 10 minute mark in each period...pretty cool wrinkle I thought.
-
Can't have it both [3] ways ....dangerous Chargers/Chiefs practice squad/Chiefs 1st stringers just not a very good team.
Niners/Carolina two terrific defenses, but we'll not see a baseball score like we did last time. 9ers had no wide receiver threat and other key injuries last time out.

Wednesday 10 AM - 2 PM Pacific TimeArtist interview takes the final hour of the program with a Q&A with our guest followed by exclusive play from his/her music01/08/14For our first interview/artist feature of the year, we'll be calling Portland Oregon to speak to this returning guest to discuss this fantastic new album which comes to us from Origin Records. -
I'll be honest; I don't get the appeal of outdoor NHL hockey. It's like playing an NFL game on the dirt road outside Bobby's house.
The players and coaches unanimously love it, as they (almost) all started out playing outdoors.
With the weather being the way it was both teams kept things pretty simple which to me was really enjoyable to watch.
In an effort for the NHL to 'kill the goose that laid the golden egg' they're doing this Stadium Series, at the end of the month and then again in March.
Kings/Ducks at Dodger Stadium
Rangers/Islanders, then 2 days later Rangers/Devils; both at Yankee Stadium
March 1 & 2
Pens/Hawks at Soldier Field
Canucks/Sens at BC Place

The Winter Classic was a fantastic show yesterday!!
Did anyone catch it?
I'm glad Toronto got the 2 points as goaltender Bernier was head & shoulders the best player on the ice IMO.
Funniest part was to me, hours afterwards NHL network had a post game show OUTDOORS near the rink....to see the co-hosts in parkas chatting it up in the frigid weather was pretty silly. During one segment, they had 2 participants from the game who were named to the USA Olympic team who were typically hockey player polite, but were very happy to be done.
I get it to have reporters nearby for immediate reaction after the game as NBC did, then they had an indoor place and a podium indoors for coaches and player interviews.
Question to NHL....stadium holds 100,000+ seats....might there be an indoor area to set up your post game panel?

I saw that the odds of a win were right around 1 - 300,000,000
No Problemo
FWIW which equals NOTHING in reality, one of the winning tickets was sold about 4 miles from my home.....lightning strike missed me by just THIS much!

My 2 cents:
Seeing RIP in the headline even with (rumor) alongside is disconcerting and easily reads as if his life or death remains unknown, when, in fact it has been confirmed that he's alive. If the thread is to remain, the head should be adjusted to simply "Horace Silver" or "Horace Silver Is Alive" or something ...
Fixed.
Activist jazz fans should see to it that the man and his music are properly represented here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_premature_obituaries
Wiki had Horace RIP early this morning and took it down.

That did not happen.....last year SF defeated Atlanta to represent in the last Superbowl
Yes SF & Seattle are in the same division and play each other 2x each regular season.
