This will be fun to see and it will be early enough for young kids to see. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate.

An eclipse that coincides with the BYU-Utah game has troubling implications. Astronomers tell us that lunar eclipses, particularly those that begin early in the evening, cast a reddish shadow on the moon. Prophets tell us that the moon will turn blood-red at the commencement of the apocalypse. An unlikely Ute win and the end of the homecourt streak, combined with a blood-red moon overhead, suggest that I should change my travel plans from SLC to Jackson County this week.

Fortnately, the Lord tells me he can get "me" out of this mess, but He's pretty sure you're %*&@ed.

I forgot that that was the night of the U/Y game. A blood red moon may signify the end of the world, but it's a good omen for the Utes.

The big question is do I record the game or the eclipse? I can't watch both at the same time.

Record the game, loses at the Marriott Ctr are more rare than eclipses. That way you can play it over and over, and smile every time.
