Some schools will go to great lengths to avoid having you as the official.

That's what I told my partner. All three games of mine that were postponed were with the same guy. I think they fear our tandem.

After 50+ Northern New England winters, I am entitled to enjoy it, too.

Will both of you please shut up.

Here's a photo of my backyard. Don't know where these odd birds came from. Never seen them before. Usually we just see chickadees, blue jays, and cardinals.

Just had tomorrow cancelled. Three nights in a row cancelled because of this blizzard. Not all bad though, would have had a long drive tonight, and a long-ish one tomorrow. Can't say I don't mind saving the gas.

My games for tomorrow were canceled. Looks like Friday will be a wash but Saturday is still on.

Good luck to all you guys losing games. Hope you get some makeups......

Last year's snow-mageddon in the DC area cost me ~15 games I never got back - and your situation is much worse.

Be safe all.

Tomorrow was canceled? Are you watching Groundhog Day?
