Not surprised after what happened

I am surprised. Beef up security and clear the stadium for threats, but postponing the game is what terrorism is about - using violence to instill fear and disrupt lives.

Bourbon Street isn’t that particularly close to the Dome. But I think it might be more be about the use of Bourbon Street as the after party location.

I am thinking there is something more not getting reported. They literally went from an hour ago saying they were on schedule to 24 minutes ago postponing.

I don't see any major news outlets reporting it as postponed

Appears it will be rescheduled for tomorrow.

Well without getting too NS… it’s a federal issue once it’s deemed terrorism. So I’m thinking the FBI and the fed pretty much told them or strongly advised them to do it.

Still not reported as postponed anywhere.

It seems that everyone is waiting for the official reschedule date and time before posting the article

I just googled it and saw several New Orleans stations reporting it will be Wednesday...

I hope you are correct because these was zero chance of me staying up until 1am tonight. Playing this game so late was idiotic. People have to work tomorrow

 

[CB4]

Officially postponed for 24 hours until tomorrow night.
Edit: I assume tomorrow night because the statement said “24 hours”. I’m sure much of this will be determined by the universities and ESPN.

I guess they will always err on the side of caution when the safety of their citizens and tourists are concerned

Postponed per ongoing news conference by NO officials

I understand the reasoning behind a "do not cave" stance on this. At the same time, I know many probably wish it could be cancelled. Obviously, that's impossible but, wow...how sickening.

 

[PA Tide Fan]

Brett McMurphy is reporting tomorrow night but no time mentioned.

If I had not had to go pick up some drugs at CVS, I would not have even known about it. Not one mention on the nonsports board.
