;	Really Tom? This is utterly shameful; just freaking pathetic; Triple Crown & Collision were forced to endure similar IF NOT WORSE conditions and they still played whereas this ON AGAIN OFF AGAIN TMT/7pt game continues to waffle around at the convience of who? The players? TMT? 7 pt? Within all fairness, this is a true black eye for the league! These accommodations need to be across the board b/c if this were the case last week, why didn`t you make exceptions for Triple Crown & Collision? Sad just truly sad

;	Shut your face or show it. Both teams say in the parking lot for about 30-45 min until 9 to try and let lightening pass it didnt, the end. In fact it was even raining hard at all by the time 9pm came but the lightening didnt stop. You dudes have very strong opinions behind a keyboard. Why don`t you speak up that way your opinions can be taken seriously.

U mad bro?

;	becaue it`s an idoit opinion and moreso an anonymous opinion. anybody who thinks its ok to play in lightening is an idiot. and to compare it, by saying on again off again TMT/7pt game is ridiculous. to compare it to tc/collision game is ridiculous. there were 2 games postponed last night, not just our game.

;	When lightening is in the vicinity, play must be suspended for at least 30 minutes. If there was no lightening, games would have started on time no matter how much rain and wind there was. If there was no lightening after 8:30, games would have started at 9:00. There was lightening just before 9:00, which meant games could not start earlier than 9:30. Under these circumstances we usually cancel the earlier game and wait it out to see if we can play the later game(s). Based on the radar images both myself and Carlton were looking at - more was on the way, so we cancelled the later games as well.
