Over in London, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. And I thought some of the company-named stadiums over here were strange.
Last time they crossed the pond it was straight-up ugly. We'll see what happens this week. I am officially in the "unwilling to say they can for sure win a game the rest of the season" crowd. Because they sure seem willing to play down to bad opponents. And their game play, signalling, etc. are wildly inconsistent, when the mark of the professional is consistency (sometimes also excellence, but always consistency).
What does it mean if the holy water sizzles when it touches your skin? (Asking for a friend.)

Tottenham Hotspur is an EPL club in London, usually just referred to as the Spurs. Soccer clubs over there and Europe have some bizarre names.
Ravens are in their usual mode of being able to beat almost anyone while also able to potentially lose to anyone.

That is some serious sky is falling stuff
I'll bet a year's paycheck they win another game the rest of the season.
I don't think that is what EY is saying. I took his statement to mean he cannot isolate one game where he is sure we will win.
How sad it is that some individuals believe that scientists, scholars, historians, economists, and journalists have devoted their entire lives to deceiving them, while a reality tv star with decades of fraud and exhaustively documented lying is their only beacon of truth and honesty?

That's correct.
They were so bad against the Steelers, I believe they will lose any future game where they are that bad again, regardless of the opponent. And I don't know why they were that bad. I wonder if Harbaugh does, and don't know that for sure, either. But if they can figure that out and fix it there is still time to put together a good season, too.

I think it comes down to this team being their own worst enemy. They are very rarely outplayed. There are a lot of reasons for that, but ultimately that kind of stuff has to fall on the head coach. Especially when it has been a years-long issue.
Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.
A near about-face this week. Waiting now to see if Hamilton catches a suspension for whatever he did that got him ejected (it looked like leading with his head and cracking his opponent's head). Certainly his paycheck will be a lot lighter.

Solid win but the game did have that "inevitable loss" feeling in the second half from the point of the Lamar INT to until Tannehill got hurt. Thankfully they were able to do the rare course correction to win the game.
SF and Philly lost yesterday to some not-good teams. Buffalo barely beat the Giants and KC has some offensive issues. As up and down as the Ravens look, they are still as good as anyone in the AFC. They just have to not beat themselves.

rocketwolf: Yes Eastern Shore thereof, so far no reaction even at the injection site same with wife.

Sprightly: Glad that you were both able to receive it, rocketwolf. I forget - are you in MD?
Feb 18, 2021 15:59:54 GMT -5
rocketwolf: OK Wife Sister and I got our first shot this morning at Walmart. They are kinda slow and spastic about getting it done but it got done for us. We had registered on online mine "disappeared" from the comp. I had the email copy to prove it. It took an hour.
Feb 18, 2021 14:36:29 GMT -5
Sprightly: It is between 28-44 days max. I don't know that 44 days at the earliest is necessary. Having said that, we will know when a large number of people do or do not have a reaction at 44 days.

Sprightly: Spoke too soon. I will be on a 9:00 a.m. call and then on the couch for the day.

Sprightly: Had my second vaccine this morning, WKDWZD. At 12 hours later I am feeling okay. My arm seems to be getting sorer as the day goes on. No fever thus far. Just really tired. We shall see what the overnight brings.

Sprightly: WKDWZD - Here, the second Moderna vaccine is given at 28 days or so after the first. Three of five people I know who received their second became quite ill some 36 hours after the injection. Fortunately, the flu-like symptoms only last less than 24-hours.

Evil Yoda: I hope you at least got the Spider-powers, WKDWZD. 'Cause that's what I'm looking forward to.
