    OT: Walmart

    Walmart used to be where Lowe’s is. They moved to build a Supercenter. Side note: West Point used to have the smallest Walmart I’ve ever seen. You could have a conversation with someone on the other side of the store. Was still that way till the early/mid 2000s.

    OT: The Hobbit - and all these memes I don't get - short explanation

    The Hobbit trilogy is terrible. Just a cash-grab. As others have said, the tone of the Hobbit is very different from the LOTR books. They made "Lord of the Rings: The Hobbit: More Everything!"

    Can we all agree Hubbard is not a “great”’player?

    Q is our #3 all time leading scorer behind Jeff Malone and Bailey Howell, so I'd say that's a safe take.

    OT: Name a Movie or Series better than the Book.

    I read King and Crichton for years and enjoyed some of it. Lately I have realized a lot of it is just not very good. Timeline for instance was just full of internal inconsistencies, flat, unlikable characters, and overly contrived situations. The Dark Tower series turned into a self-indulging...

    If P4 football programs don't break away

    Dabo's "sit out a year" after a transfer is a pretty good solution, I think. Not really a new idea, since that how it was for many years, but it would solve a lot of the current issues. First, it doesn't interfere with NIL. NIL is a settled right, and rightly so. So any improvements must...
