    Way off topic: Data Centers

    I don’t argue that some sort of development is normal and necessary with proper regulation. What I do argue is location. I don’t want a data center across the street from me any more than I want a Waste Management facility or a nuclear power plant.

    Way off topic: Data Centers

    I live about 3 miles from Parkland HS. Nobody wants a data center in our area. My concerns are noise, water consumption, energy consumption and real estate values. What misconceptions are you referencing?

    Skydiver gets hung up on VA Tech Lane Stadium scoreboard

    If no one got seriously hurt, then it's not a bad accident. More of an embarrassing accident. Potentially bad. I'm bored with this fascination with JF. I liked him and supported him when he was our coach. He was fired. I'm tired of the back and forth sniping. I wish him well except when we...

    FC/OT: Virginia Tech president steps down…

    Good point. A couple of decades ago, before satellite radio, I used to listen to Carton on WFAN in NYC. Back then, before jail, I thought he was a jack ***. Very pro sports oriented and anti college sports oriented.

    FC/OT: Virginia Tech president steps down…

    Is this the same Craig Carton who was sentenced to 42 months in jail for wire fraud, securities fraud and conspiracy?

    '26 Hodge Trophy Finalists; Fan Vote Now Open

    I was very happy to see Mendez lose in the finals and "disqualify" himself for the Hodge. Seems to me OSU and Mendez himself were appointing him the winner before all the matches were wrestled. Their arrogance was grating. If you talk the talk you better be sure you can walk the walk.

    2026 NCAA Championship Session III Thread

    Totally agree. If a wrestler doesn't have legitimate national title chances then he can't crack this line up.

    Hodge Race widens

    If freshman of the year was voted before the Big Tens, I would think Blaze would have bested Davino since Blaze was undefeated and beat Davino head to head.

    Would this be a good real estate investment?

    Kinda looks like where we are headed.

    Japan Travel Advice

    Thanks for you input. We are only spending 4 days in Tokyo. We won't see the entire city, but that's okay. I think we have a full day private guide in Kyoto that includes a visit to Nara. We are staying in a ryokan over a natural hot springs in Hakone. We have a 6 hour cruise on lake Ashi...

    Japan Travel Advice

    My wife and I are spending 15 days in Japan next month. We will be in Tokyo, Hakone, Hiroshima, Osaka and Kyoto. We are looking at dining options. There are plenty of inexpensive restaurants and reasonable street food options. I started to look at nicer restaurants and the budgets are $125...

    USC, UCLA, Washington, Oregon

    Please forgive me for asking a question that I'm sure has been previously addressed. The four West Coast Big teams did not compete in the wrestling championships this past weekend. Do they not field wrestling teams or did they opt out of the wrestling part of the conference because of...

    NFL Combine - Penn State guys and others

    Maybe. Isn’t football a game of constant adjustments? Nick and the staff had ample time to counter opposing team adjustments. The reason for his regression is open to debate, the fact it occurred is not debatable.

    NFL Combine - Penn State guys and others

    I feel our fans have a short memory. For their first two years Nick was the superior back. In years three and four Nick regressed and Kaytron got better.
