My stomach is in knots, cant Ben wear heating pads on his hands during the sideline breaks and ditch the gloves?
I found the best way to get hands acclimated to frigid cold was to soak them in 32 degree water for about five minutes. Warm them up slightly with the aid of stretching and blowing on them. Then dipping them again. After about five times, I warm them in heat and put on some heavy duty hand lotion to keep the skin from cracking badly. I only put the gloves only when I feel that burn I felt in the initial soaking, usually when the wind chill is BAD.
I know of construction workers that would nail their hands because the cold is so numbing in this weather.
Weather acclimation will be determining factor on both sides.
And the forecast only calls for a chance of snow, so there may not be moisture flying around during the game.
I havent been this jacked since the last Steelers Super Bowl game!
