    Very OT: Anyone familiar with Northern Virginia?

    Arlington is definitely the place to be. Namely Clarendon and Courthouse - kind of like how Hoboken is to NYC. Rosslyn is nice as well, a bit more quieter/corporate. Ballston/Virginia Square are okay. One other neighborhood to consider is Shirlington. It's nowhere near as fun as...

    OT: Amazon HQ2 - 20 Finalists

    This. As messed up as NJTransit, PATH, Amtrak and NYC subways are, at least they exist. What mass transit systems other than a handful of bus lines and light rail systems that may go a mile or two exist in Atlanta, Austin, Raleigh, Columbus, Miami, Indianapolis, DFW, and Nashville exist...

    OT: Anybody drive/own a Tesla?

    I took delivery of mine in Fall of 2013. Have just north of 40K on it now including a road trip across the country and back. I've had zero problems with it other than the charge door not closing properly which was fixed in 35 minutes. Service is awesome. Also, for those that live in NJ and...

    Big Ten, Fox close to huge TV deal

    I really hope that it is NBC Sports. Anyone who is a fan of the English Premier League in soccer knows they have done more than an exceptional job in their coverage and analysis. Their current inventory is limited to things that aren't as popular in America like Indy car racing, moto racing...

    Article: For Big Ten, Jim Delany, new deal is a stunningly big deal

    When Delany retires as commissioner of B1G, and if he wants to come back to home to Jersey, RU should offer him a position at the Business School to teach a class on negotiations. What a beast.

    OT - Tesla Model 3

    Actually you'll be surprised how many charging stations there are throughout NJ and the rest of the country. There are roughly 32,000 charging stations in America. In comparison, there are 168,000 gas stations. Some links to find stations...

    Better Big 10 road trip?

    I would go with none of the above and go with University of Washington. It's during Labor Day weekend, so one less day to take off from work. Plus Seattle is stunning during that time of the year. Plus you have the opportunity to tailgate on a boat. There is a music festival going on there...
