Re: UNCC Mayo Kickoff game now Friday

not sure why in quotes. Mecklenburg county is our largest contingent of alumni, Its also where a fair amount of our unaffiliated fans live. I like playing at BoA once every 5-7 years. IMO we should have told UNCC for a long term deal it needed to be 1-1-1 or more games in Boone since we average ove...

Re: UNCC Mayo Kickoff game now Friday

I think they pander to this "huge alumni base" in Charlotte who don't contribute or engage in App athletics. Hope it works out for them. I agree though, it's better in Boone. not sure why in quotes.

Re: Tickets home games

I received 2 emails today allowing me to print the tickets at home. My guess is, since each year I go in and have them print them for me, they flagged the account.

Re: Preseason Projections

That bottom 10 is more about trying to be funny rather than really analytical about teams. It’s always been that way. I’ve been of the opinion that little to no analysis is done on any team outside of the usual 20 or so who vie for the championship. We have too many folks here getting butt hurt ove...

Re: 12 NC high school players sign NIL deals.

You can't put 10,000 $100 dollar bills in an envelope and the unlimited transferring around has hurt the sport. Comparing then to now is apples and oranges. It's not jealousy either. The sport used to teach life lessons about teamwork and comradery, societal stuff that doesn't get taught anywhere el...

Re: 12 NC high school players sign NIL deals.

If you give a Senior a $1.2mil 2-year deal. Does that allow you to direct where he plays in the 2nd year of that deal?

That would be the only way I can make any sense of this. No actually it still makes no sense.

Re: Peacock Lot

I miss paper tickets. While I like the convenience of digital tickets, I too miss the nostalgia and memories that paper tickets have. I go to the ticket office at the start of the season and pay to have them printed for the year. So much easier to distribute at tailgate when there's no cell service.

Would you take the L at Charlotte for a W in Boise?
In half a heartbeat.
I have an almost visceral disdain for the 49'ers and respect for Boise. Makes it tough, but I agree.

Re: QB1 battle?

You get that experience with game time. Aguilar had the “real-world” experience over Burger because of JUCO and Swann has the experience over Kohl because of starting at Vanderbilt. We know now why Burger was named the started over Aguilar - the staff wanted players to fit their scheme instead of f...

Re: Appalachian Energy Conference 2025

The climate advocates biggest obstacle is the hypocrisy of their political class. Common sense is on their side, albeit at a much-reduced rate than I think they like to admit. The sea-level rising advocates building ocean side mansions and flying to rallies on private jets is a terrible look. But i...
