If you're getting a good amount of snow from the evening into the night, do you do an initial shoveling?

Night shoveling is best enjoyed as a spectator sport, I find.
We don't really get a "good amount" of snow here, but if it's more than 3", we'll shovel in multiple sessions because we need the workout
I used to if it was going to be a large amount of snow. But now I have a snowblower so no shoveling for me.
These days I usually send the kids out to do it.
Won't lie, I was expecting a CoC about Tofu Coagulant.
I ride hard for Nigari...
You know, if there was an actual Commissioner of the MLB who cares about baseball instead of a puppet for the owners (I know I know all Commishs are just puppets) that person would block the Arenado trade.

I don't do shoveling. I have people who do that sort of thing for me.
MLB on Friday proposed to the union a 154-game schedule with full pay, delayed by a month and extended by a week, sources say. Also, with expanded postseason. Union considering.
You get an asterisk! And you get an asterisk! And you! Everyone gets an asterisk!
I thought I read that the universal DH was part of the proposal, but maybe not. I'd rather have 162 than 154, but it's not that big a difference. I wonder if neutral-site playoffs figure into it, since a month delay pushes us into November, and it would not be easy to have playoff games in northern cities in November.
It sounds like the postseason would end only about a week later than the current schedule in the proposal.
I like the idea of a 154 game season, and I’m agnostic on the universal DH. (The idea floated in a recent Jayson Stark column was interesting, but I prefer an NL-only implementation.)
But an expanded postseason and neutral-site playoff locations are both hot garbage, and I hope MLBPA tells Manfred to stuff the offer up his nose.
I wouldnt mind a 154 game season. Places some importance of winning games in the regular season (albeit a small importance)
Sports reporter Mel Antonen has died of Covid
From USA Today:
Antonen kept reporting and writing throughout his illness with COVID-19 and an auto-immune disease so rare that his doctors told him he may have been the only person on Earth with that combination.
