now a weather delay. Pussification of America almost complete.
I believe this is something different.
I think that these mid-game "severe weather delays" are part of the Global Warming Agenda, which has now been rebranded as "climate change." This is another one of those cases where a bureaucracy, whether the causation is pure evil or simply inane overgrowth (perhaps a blend), simply out-kicks its coverage.
Here is one of my anecdotes: I attend New York Red Bulls soccer games in Harrison, NJ, which is a suburb of Newark and its airport: a crow's flight of 2-3 miles. Last year, there were THREE separate mid-game weather delays. The NY Red Bulls are small potatoes, but I noted after the first that a big game in Germany at Munich's mega-stadium that weekend was delayed for the same reason - perhaps some synchronicity. The stinker to me is that Newark International Airport let its last flight depart the better part of an hour (iirc 32 minutes) AFTER the sports game on the more distant side of the weather pattern. I looked it up during the drive home after leaving "mid-game."
The first NFL mid-game weather delay EVER was in 2018, in the season opener between Miami and Tennessee (September 8). Two different lightning delays, btw.
I just wrote a bunch of stuff and then deleted it, but I believe this "weather" BS is some combo of fake (it can't actually hurt us) or manufactured (designed by our government to hurt us on purpose).
But you could just ask AI when fans have ever been hurt by weather attending sports.
Why do the weather advisories tell fans to "get inside" their stadiums on account of lightning, but at no time in history has any gov told people not to drive their floating metal boxes?
(if anyone has any scholastic-level override to my thoughts, i will not be hostile and in fact pledge you a beer)
