Quote Of The Day

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23

I haven’t traveled outside of Florida this last year so its bazaar to me seeing these restrictions in place. So, yeah, drop them already…

Its bizarre that you should feel that way.
Can we send you the resultant hospital bills once we end the restrictions?
I really don’t like paying higher taxes and insurance rates because people are just dumb as fuck.
Stupidity is the ONLY reason normalcy in the fall is in question.

Is that a population density thing? I would think it was harder to stop the spread in Europe due to people living in cities, trains, etc.
Then again, they actually took it seriously.

They’re also not doing as well on vaccine distribution (I know Ireland was at barely 200,000 people vaccinated a few weeks back.)

Problem is europe did what they do best over here – death by committee – on buying vaccines – meanwhile UK gives the universal finger to brexit haters as they are better positioned with their vaccine program.
Meanwhile my doctor finally got their 2nd round of vaccines 4 weeks ago. It could be cmas time before we see a big dent in vaccinations over here…. but our beer is 10,000 times better than anything from the US, so we have that victory.

Side question for any NFL fans or anyone who went to the 2014 Belk bowl: how’s Charlotte’s stadium?

It’s a typical NFL stadium – not much joy, and pretty sterile. It’s right uptown, which is cool, but if you are going to tailgate, better scout a parking lot now, or be prepared to pay $30+ and walk.
LikeLike
Pretty much sums it up. Highly suggest out of town visitors stay within stadium walking distance if possible and just hang at a brewery/bar for your pre-game festivities.

i’m close with someone very high up in Clemson athletics. He told me last week that if North Carolina won’t allow a full stadium, Clemson and UGA had agreed to move the game. Atlanta is out due to the voting stuff. Jacksonville is the contingency that is being worked on.

Given the way the payout is structured, that doesn’t surprise me in the slightest.

Jacksonville? I would prefer Nashville over Jax any day of the week even with the 5,000 to 6,000 less seats. And selfishly, Nashville is a much quicker drive.

“… even with the 5,000 to 6,000 less seats” is why the schools don’t share your point of view on that. 😉

I’d even be willing to play at Clemson, if they gave us an entire side of the stadium.

This North Carolina place is getting weird, first they took out tobacco, then milk, ( except for Eastern NC ) textiles, furniture and manufacturing. Now all that’s left is tourism and thanks to Covid you can’t tell if your in Virginia, New Jersey, New York, Ohio. Do I need to go on ? Moved from Augusta back to my grandfather’s farm in 85 to help take care of them and had to stay, still taking care of my mom at 90 and uncle 88. He raised 6 kids on a small crop of tobacco and milk cows. Any ya’ll had the pleasure of working a dairy even a small one ?
Anyway, it’s not that I am racist, red neck, BLM, Antifa, transgender, gay or straight but I don’t fit in. Last Thursday there was 4 ( 2 driveby’s and 2 road rage ) shootings, 2 killed in Asheville. It’s crazy.
Stopped by my neighbor’s mailbox to say howdy for a sec and on a small little two lane country road I got honked at, driven around, cussed and shot a bird from a older guy from New Jersey. We are over run by Yankees bring their 💩 down here. While they are running away from places even worse.
So no, I won’t be near the “golden triangle” Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill, might as well include Charlotte. It’s hard enough in the Western End of the state. I feel safer in Athens and certain parts of Augusta than I do on I-40 east of Hickory.
Go Dawgs.

I’ve gotten my 2 shots here in NC. If it would speed up the end of COVID restrictions, I’d get 10 more. Governor Cooper said that if 2/3 of adults are vaxxed, the mask mandate comes down. We’re at 47.5% now.

The mandate doesn’t really come down, you still have to wear them in indoor public places. I guess we can go outside without a mask? I need a better guarantee before I get a jab….

I live in Charlotte and was born here. Gov Cooper is a bought and paid for chi com. The state I grew up in is closer to NY than Ga now politically. Read what he said again. He did NOT say what you think he said. We’ve been privy to his side mouth politician talk for years now. His happy talk is stale and he moves the goalpost constantly. The game will not be full go on any level. This is the same guy that cost downtown Charlotte tens of millions of dollars playing politics with the repub convention last year. Dem and Repub business owners alike. (When we really could have used the revenue). As a small business owner, I can without a doubt tell you that myself and thousands of others like me have zero respect for this corporate crony. He doesn’t care about his constituents, at all. Nor some college football game or the economy of Charlotte. Also, Raleigh has and still does have pe..s envy of Charlotte. So anything to hurt Charlotte is A-OK with the state government. Should be a great game, but it deserves a better venue. Atlanta would put on one hell of a show that Saturday.

Card carrying lifer. He wouldn’t be there at all if the governor before him didn’t s—t the bed on the Target bathroom issue a few years ago. Our gov is a career back-room pencil pusher but won easily playing the same sex bathroom card. An unknown nobody, but Daffy Duck would have won opposite Mccrory that year. The press executed him over it. And once again people voted their emotions, not their brains. Sad. Not the state I grew up in.

Have a question for the vaccinators? I see old people all over wearing masks. Have they not been vaccinated its been months where they have had the ability to do so. And if they are vaccinated then WTF the masks? And if its because its not 100% successful then when do the masks come off. When will it be 100% successful? And if the “at risk” people and anyone that is so afraid of the virus have already been vaccinated then WTF are healthy people who trust their immune systems being told to get the shots. F joke. Same people that say nobody can tell a woman what to do with her body are telling others what to do. F joke.
