For those of you who have Peacock, they now have multiview for the games that are airing via Peacock only (i.e., games on USA or NBC aren't part of multiview).

It's glorious.

Pretty dicey weather expected for tomorrow's Merseyside derby. They're talking about 60-70 MPH wind gusts at times on the west coast of the UK.

Dycheball may be hard to do in that weather. When the ball is hoofed, it's either going to basically go straight up in the air or go into the seventh row.

One of the Everton supporters I was talking to mentioned bringing Tim Howard out of retirement as he'd be a guaranteed hat trick in a match with weather like this. Gonna be an early start here though with kickoff set for 6:30 AM CT.

I always try to get to the gym when it opens at 7 on Saturdays because I can get on the elliptical and watch the 6:30 game while getting my workout in. One of the few advantages of watching Premier League in the US.

Everton-Liverpool postponed indefinitely because of the wind storms hitting northwest England.

Today's Merseyside derby officially postponed due to adverse weather conditions. Tens of thousands in the UK are without power and many have been urged to stay home, especially in areas of western and southern Wales.

2nd sacking of the day. Russell Martin gone from Southampton after today's 0:5 loss at home to Spurs. Saints were down 0:3 within the first 15 minutes of the match and down 0:5 by half.

Sounds like Martin thought the tactics he used to get the Saints promotion from the Championship would work in the Premier League and he refused to bend from his tactics.

It was 0:4 at the 25 minute mark and the fans began leaving. It was a bit crazy to watch.

Not sure what is the bigger surprise in the Premier League this season between Nottingham Forest, who is currently 2nd in the table, or Manchester City, who is underperforming compared to what they've done the last 4 seasons.

Nottingham for me is a bigger surprise, City even despite this amazing streak of bad results is in the 5th heading into today, Rodri does not make the team entirely but he is the engine. I think Pep has actually done a very poor job in adjustments and they are getting caught often out of position at the back. No tears for city dropping from me however.

Tottenham with another home loss, this time against a Newcastle team that really didn’t play that well.

If I’m Ange, I’m probably making sure I have any personal items off of my company laptop tonight.
