Chipper Jones Saves Freddie Freeman From Snowjam 2014

The HQ is stuck in Snowpocalypse 2014 down here in the south...

And there is a lot of collateral damage and story-telling to go with it...

You saw what Jim Cantore had to go through in Charleston with a drunken college kid...
Point, set, match, side kick, Cantore...

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman was telling the universe in his Twitter account that he was stuck in it with the rest of the planet...

So, who came to his rescue after 11 hours of being stuck...???
Soon-to-be Texan Chipper Jones...
Evidence below...

Quoting Chipper: "He hugged me all the way home..."

Wouldn't you...???

SIU Bus Stranded 5 Hours In Snow

((HT: WSIL-TV))

This is what happens when you lose in s blizzard...

Southern Illinois lost to Illinois State and ended up getting stranded in a snow bank for FIVE HOURS before a tow truck large enough could pull the bus out of the elements...

Seriously...
Here's proof of the game...


Players and staff members spent the night sleeping in a nearby church.

Tom Weber, SIU's assistant athletics director for media services, says the players started traveling again around 6:30 this morning after stocking up on food. But heavy snow in central Illinois meant the bus was only traveling about 15 mph.
