Most of the crime at the transit center involves G4S Special police beating poor people up and charging them with resisting a police officer. Otherwise just a few open containers and failure to pay fairs. Do you actually believe that? If so, it's from listening to your criminal clients all day and ...

"private owned and deputized" should never have to be used in the same sentence. Such is life in corporate America. After I posted the question I found some information on the internet. I did not think to search Google until I hit send on my question. And yes, I have been cruising the internet since...

What is G4S, as in what do the letters and number mean, or is it just a private security force?

We need to fund a dome for golf first if you ask me.

Here is one study though not conclusive suggests public transit did not have an effect on crime rates.

There are some other studies online but that is all I have time for at the present. Other studies may tell a different story.

I don’t know if I resent or resemble the old guy part of the meme.

My life has lead me to the sticking it line more than should be happening.

So you're sticking to us for him going to Duke for money.

Given we sponsor all the sports it would be nice to be top three each year, though remember the sports with few schools does not really help much either. Even if we won MSOC we are only getting 6 points. Better than 1 or 2 points but not like winning 12 points.

I am on a big anti Prig-5 rant of late, and this one has me torn. I guess I am leaning WVU though.

I want to make a proposal for YC/MMB- Until UNC-CH self imposes some penalties, heck anything really, we only refer to them as UNC-CHeat. So instead of "Heels Bite the Dust in Charlotte no less" as a thread title it would be titled "UNC-CHeat Bites the Dust in Charlotte no less" Thanks for posting i...

Softball and Baseball now included though very early in the season of course. We have dropped a spot in overall points due to the start of baseball and softball.

Bubas Cup

I think this one tops them all except the Miracle on Ice. That was college kids beating an NHL all start team at the heart of the Cold War. It’ll never be toppled. A mismatch like that might not even be played again. On the one hand if is hard to argue between college kids and some professional pla...

I suggest an umbrella.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

(Actually it took me a few minutes of being away from YC reading about neutron decay and then it hit me what you were getting at. Stupid keyboard!)

I attended an AP workshop at UMBC a few years ago. I was there for a week and lived in the dorms. Just how much can I celebrate with the "We did it!" phrase fans use.

Not really sure how much this will change life at UNCC but I would think it would make it a bit more attractive to attend UNCC. Besides night-life this will be a good selling point to students desiring internships in downtown Charlotte. Then again, I just love things that move on two or more rails, ...

Should we not have the 100 day countdown before we have the first prediction?

Though I do appreciate the enthusiasm.

I know some of the recent posts had been lost due to some tech issues with the server but I did not think we had lost 5 years worth of posts. :lol: Well if we did lose 5 years worth of posts I can recap. 3 bowl wins in FB and softball took the series from ULM in game three in extra innings. Outside ...

I was thinking Duke Divinity was a separate thing from the rest of Duke now but on the same grounds but it seems they are still connected.

I added to Bubas point won for GaSt and LR by virtue of winning the basketball tourneys. I could add softball and I should since we are sitting high right now after the weekend but I am going to wait until both softball and baseball has SBC play which also gives everyone some time to look at the res...
