Of the century, as in the last 13 years, or of the last 100 consecutive years? The latter is more impressive than the former.

What do we want? Global Warming!
When do we want it? Now!!!

First Super Bowl played outdoors? Too much hyperbole from the foreign press.

Whom, unlike the domestic media, at least report something.

Y’know, I was thinking...

I read a book a while ago called “The Biblical Flood and the Ice Epoch” that suggested that before the great flood the entire planet was covered in clouds (the waters above mentioned in genesis) with no direct sunlight, ever. And tradewinds ran north and south, giving a temperature variance between the poles and the equator of around 3 degrees.

So, with this polar vortex we’re freezing our hineys off, the “warmer” air had to go somewhere. The pole didn’t just become a big vacuum. I understand Alaska is getting record warm temps. Wouldn’t it be fun if the planet was returning to its original equalibrium in a way.

No, I don’t believe it is, but it’s an interesting thought experiment

It looks like if Global Warming gets any worse we’re going to freeze to death.

Don’t worry in the end 2014 will be recorded as the “hottest year on record”.

"the first Super Bowl to be played in an open-air stadium"

That's just not true.

The Global Warming Channel is predicting lows of 31 and rain/snow showers for Pooper Bowl night.

So, gametime will be in the mid 30s.

Better cancel it, there will be thousands of hypothermia deaths, and the half-time dancers will have to cover their boobs.
