The Irish-Catholics Prepare…But wait…

24:37-42 37 For just as the days of Noah were, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day in which Noah entered into the ark, 39 And they did not know that judgement was coming until the flood came and took all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

A bit dramatic, sayeth ye? No my children, not at all.

As of the 11am update from the NHC, Matthew shall visit the port city of Wilmington at around 8am; Saturday morning. The spaghetti strands are compacting for a run up the I 40 and East.

We should expect an announcement by 5:00 this evening, or no later than 9:am Wednesday. I suspect that there will be no football for C-F on Saturday.

Stay tuned….

    speaking of “hate”…. the collegiate version…

    NOLES at the HurriCanes — Saturday night 8pm…

    Wonder how they might pull that one off, given the Apostle’s “intervention”?

    ———-
    Back in Rawlee….
    looks like the second half could get sloppy…

    Miami is getting butt-pounded on Friday, and maybe again Sunday, right? Saturday night is perfect, as long as the stadium is standing and they can bus in enough crips and bloods for there to be “atmosphere”

    Don’t know about the sloppy second half (Don’t GO THERE….), but here is the “stats” for 2016. Pardon what SFN SW does to the formatting…..crimes such as these should be punished by honey and ants…

    Key Stats (to me)…..total for 2016

    NOTRE DAME
    Total Passing – 1639 Yds; 9.87 Yds/Attempt; 60.9% Comp; 14 TD; 4 INT; 166 Attempts

    NCSU
    Total Passing – 1188 Yds; 9.07 Yds/Attempt; 72.5% Comp; 10 TD; 1 INT; 131 Attempts

    NOTRE DAME
    Total Rushing – 838 Yds; 4.4 Yds/Carry; 11 TD; 191 Carries; 6 Players

    NCSU
    Total Rushing – 832 Yds; 5.0 Yds/Carry; 12 TD; 166 Carries; 11 Players….HMMMMM

    SO, what do you make of it…? Seems about even to me. SO, the D gotta be the difference….There are SO many Defensive stats and situations….but here is the one that shows up first….

    Notre Dame is currently # 106 (UNC is 105) @ 460 Yds/Game

    NCSU is currently #20 (HUH….did I read that RIGHT?) @ 321.5 Yds/Game.

    NEVER would have thought that….and MAYBE I read it wrong. SO, here are the references….so you can verify, if you do NOT trust me….

    Stats don’t mean squat when ya play Texas and Duke, ECU and Wake. Does it? This is an eyeballer, and probably the last for both.

    Do y’all still have an 8 squirreled away?

    OK, CD….No offense, but I get kidded about being difficult to decipher and, in another land, have been told that I needed a Navajo Code Talker to decipher my zig-zag logic…..

    Therefore, I totally agree….Stats don’t mean that a TG Male gotta squat to pee in the lady’s room, even when he IS feeling his feminine side (whilst feeling his subservient…but necessary appendage)…..WHAT is your prediction….TO paraphrase Howard Cosell, “I never played the COLLGEE Game..”????

    On a slightly also relevant note, USC has cancelled the Saturday tilt against GA and rescheduled for Sunday. Ray Tanner (USC AD and Ex NCSU BB Coach) was formally advised by Gov Niki that the 200 SHP troopers would NOT be available and that the “direction” of the Interstates MIGHT not be back to normal….

    Rain pants are now triple saturated with fabric guard….

    Man, if you trail out that model far enough it has that thing circling around and heading back where it came from around Haiti. NOT TOO GOOD!

    ^The Apostle or his descendants should be back to North Carolina either in 7-8 days after revisiting West Palm Beach or in 10-12 days if he decides to go towards Mobile first…

    Some discussion seems to indicate that there is a woman influencing the Apostle’s decisionmaking — Nicole….

    Ya’ll know… “Large” events such as this bring out the best and the worse in people… and some humor…

    I’m told a Late middle aged couple was interviewed on TV down in South FLA yesterday. They moved from Wisconsin a few years ago and have never “experienced” a hurricane of any size. The man proffered proudly something to the effect…”Not going to be a problem for us, you guys have never been thru a big snowstorm! We have seen a hundred or more of those”

    HA!

    100 snowstorms !== 1 Cat2 Hurricane.

    One of them lawn mover size snow plows won’t push trees out of your driveway or off your house.

    But if there is ever a snow (NOT ICE) storm, he will show the natives or naturalized transplants HOW TO DRIVE IN IT.

    Probably a ex hockey player too macho for a helmet…

    Should be some decent weather for the game tomorrow. Gusts into the 30s with inches of rain falling. The Canadians are showing 9″ total for the event. The Americans are showing around 6″. Yummy.

    12Z 4K NAM has a nice swath of 8″ through the area. 12Z GFS has 6-7″. The RGEM shows about 5-6″. We’ll see what the Canadians say in a bit. 🙂

    Canadians have 7-8″. The Europeans are last to bat. They’ll probably have less.

    So you are predicting an 8 win season does that include the bowl game?

    Oh mercy,no. No prediction of the kind. However, that 8 needs to be glued to your finger tips.

    Adventuroo the game seems to be 12 come hell or high water….LITERALLY! Heaven forbid moving it to Sunday but I’m sure there are many other factors in play, I guess…whatever. I bought pops and my frog toggs rain suit today, hopefully it’ll be a wet messy party come 4pm.
