    If you're wondering why they moved the Buffalo game to Monday:

    .Heavy lake effect snow and very strong winds expected.
    Total snow accumulations of 1 to 2 feet in the most persistent
    lake snows, with local amounts approaching 3 feet where the
    bands persist the longest. Winds gusting as high as 60 mph early
    in the event will diminish late tonight. Blizzard conditions
    will be possible at times, especially tonight and
    Ring the bells that still can ring
    Forget your perfect offering

    Tough to not die too. Sub zero temps with freaking waves of water on the field. I don’t think anyone would survive being wet for 3 hours in that.

    I wonder what that field is going to be like. It's artificial turf so they can push the water off. But can they get all the moisture out of it so it's not icy? It's gonna be about 20 degrees at game time on Monday.

    That wasn't waves of water, it was the tarp flapping in the wind.

    Guys who don’t wear sleeves in -20 wind chill are dumb asses. Very light weight sleeves make a big difference. I’m a northerner, upper Michigan growing up. People comment on how light im dressed every winter. Cold doesn’t bother me much. But it’s idiotic to not have light weight sleeves in -20 wind chill.

    Agreed. Even with all the supports, temperatures this low are dangerous. Mental toughness is great but doesn't change the realities of convective heat loss. Not to mention the impact on performance.

    There's gonna be a lot of frost bite cases coming out of that stadium tonight.
