Generally better perspective than the BTN cameras picked up.
Think I'd hold my tongue with comments about lack of zip on passes and such.

Many of those who were ripping on Ramsey's lack of zip on his throws have forgotten what it's like to attempt to throw a throughly waterlogged football.
The steps turned waterfall next to us was impressive all night.
Those that complained about receivers using the "breadbasket" to catch passes needed to be there to understand why.

Ramsey even said after the game that all the footballs got so wet/heavy that it was like throwing a shotput, especially by the 2nd half.
Bad weather games always look fun on TV. When you are playing, coaching, witnessing...not so much. Great win.
Precipitation is a good illustration of the limitations of film & video imaging. You can't see it, not like the naked eye can anyway. We often times fall into the trap of assuming that images we see on TV, in photo's/ etc. are exact replica's of reality, but they aren't. Sometimes when you meet famous/often filmed people in person you're shocked at how different they look in person than they do on TV & in photo's. Supposedly light has to do with this phenomenon, but I'm skeptical about that, because if that's so it should be the case with everyone, not just some people. Anyway, this is a subject that fascinates me because it's a bit of a mystery(my dad's a retired professional photographer).
