How hard was the wind blowing?

There must have been a jet stream blowing South to North. The first Shaw punt travels 71 yards IN THE AIR... then Bobble overthrows a pass that went over 50 yards. I dusted off the screen on my tv to make sure I wasn't seeing things. The cameraman was too busy zooming in on the center's mouthpiece to see the rest of the field or the flags on the poles.

Me thinks its a play on "tiny bubbles" with TM being from Hawaii........but I've been known to be wrong at least once....maybe twice.

Throw a bunch of toys in front of a toddler... and it'll always grab the Shiny Bobble, instead of the better toy.
Brint and a couple of others had us convinced that Trent was the next coming of Michael Vick cuz he was "quick", despite obvious and glaring weaknesses in passing, decision-making and leadership. E-Grizzers latched onto Lord Wahlberg's (sorry Brint, its part of the Super Scout personna you've cultivated) comments and went with it. Therefore, they went for the Shiny Bobble, instead of the effective quarterback that wins conferences and championships. We'll NEVER win a chipper with a JJ or a TM as a QB, just like Michigan won't win one with Denard Robinson.

2. Shay Smithwick-Hann... better known as "Hyphenated".
3. Adam Brzeczek... better known as "Guzendheit".
4. Brady Gustafson... better known as "Viagra", after WaGrizforLife said his arm strength would give "Grizmayor a hard-on".

Remember, this is JUST an opinion like everyone else's on here. I like to play along with all of you that I'm some kind of expert. But, I have played (pretty well), head coached (not so well, you're only as good as the horses you have on the field), reffed (kind of like being a teacher, its what you do when you can't do anything else), and won a lot of money in Vegas betting on it since I study the game and watch video a lot (part of the playing and coaching part. I tape and watch the Griz games 2-3 times a week).

Punish me for not wearing Maroon goggles like 90% of the fella's on here, but I'm stuck in reality where I live. I'm a Darby native and a lifer Griz fan. I'm the same size as Monte Bullerdick cuz I got drunk on my ass with him one night at a softball tournament. So I certainly ain't gonna be dunking any basketballs.

Now, back to the original question... Was the wind blowing??
 
Light breeze. Calm in my seat, actually looked at the flags a couple times and they were lightly 'flapping' (sorry can't think of another word) in the breeze.
 
Official game stats say 5-10 mph. The wind was blowing harder up off the field. During the first half, probably around the end of the 1st q (actually just before the punt that Nguyen fumbled), a strong wind developed up high (I was on the patio of the upper deck at that time). The wind was also swirling. Despite the bigger wind that continued the rest of the game, the flags on top of the goal posts didn't indicate big wind, but they indicated inconsistent wind.
 
Dang... I can't even spell it right and I do crossword puzzles in ink.

Shiny Bauble!

There was one weird anomoly hurricane level wind recorded right after the infamous 4th and 2. It happened when all 25,000 sighed at the same time.
 
The punt was named the Shaw Shank Redemption.

Coach needs to tell our punter to aim towards the left sideline. In case of a shank he still gets 30 yards with a chance of hitting an oposing player. 101 of punt coaching. Of course that may be to advanced for our ST coaching group.

The Win fumble was in a 65 MPH wind. We all know he has never had a fumble. Just ask Alpha's drunk mexican girl friend.
