Snowstorm forces postponement of Atlanta-Washington NBA game
The bad weather on the east coast is playing havoc with both pro and college sports. From AP-
The game between the Atlanta Hawks and Washington Wizards has been postponed because of the blizzard that battered the Mid-Atlantic region.
The NBA said on Saturday that neither the Hawks or Wizards could fly to Washington after their games Friday night. The Wizards played at Orlando and the Hawks hosted the Bulls.
The game will be rescheduled for a date yet to be announced.
A record 2½ feet of snow or more was predicted for Washington.
A slew of mid-Atlantic men’s college basketball games slated for Saturday afternoon were also postponed or canceled, including Florida A&M at Morgan State, St. Bonaventure at Saint Joseph’s and James Madison at Towson.
The Atlanta Thrashers were stuck in Virginia after playing the Washington Capitals last night. They only got to Atlanta around 6 p.m. tonight and are currently playing the Florida Panthers.
2 and a half feet of snow. Are scientists sure it isn’t global cooling instead of global warming?
