Re: MLB 2022 Season
I believe that MLB should ban goggle celebrations for anything before the LCS's. :?: Beer and champagne spraying, plastic sheets on the lockers, players wearing goggles... It's a joke. But as we said later in the thread, the easier answer is to ban cameras and reporters from the locker room if they...

Re: Coronavirus COVID-19
Good God, why are we rehashing this again? There is study after study and comparison after comparison that shows neither lockdowns nor masks had any measurable affect on the virus or it's spread/demise. 90% of folks around here are still wearing masks indoors (grocery, mall, etc). I'm not one of th...

Hence why he said “not realistic AT THIS POINT…”…. I believe Trip posted "While the goal should be 100% renewables, that's not realistic at this point." Baldy posted "A society relying on 100% renewals is not an obtainable goal." I agree with Trip. It isn't realistic now but is ...

Re: Sun Belt 2022 thread
You're thinking of individual towns/cities like NYC as being metropolitan. That isn't wrong, but the Wikipedia above states a metropolitan statistical area, which is different. I get what you're saying, i'm in the Charlotte Metro area and this is our data Population (2019) 22,284 • Density 1,134.62...

Re: Sun Belt 2022 thread
There's a high population density that makes it "metro". Not really. MB has a population density of 1,291 people per square mile (31,783 total pop). For comparison, Potomac, MD (my hood) has a population density of 1,827 (45,824 total pop) and I'd laugh my ass off if anyone called us a &q...

Re: Sun Belt 2022 thread
ACC and Pac10, for sure I'd believe that. B10 and BXII... very possible. SEC... take ANY team in the country and put them in the SEC and chances are they don't make the playoffs. Alabama has been the outlier. Georgia, Auburn, LSU... all struggle to make it out of there. Of course this is all specul...

Re: Sun Belt 2022 thread
EDIT: In my opinion, Coastal, Appy, UL-L, Marshall, and other SBC teams (depending on the year) are just as good or better than NDSU. That's where we differ. One or two of the ones you mentioned are maybe on par any given year, but that's it. NDSU would most likely beat 9 out of 10 SB teams right n...

Re: Sun Belt 2022 thread
If you're trying to say that Appy, Coastal, Marshall, UL-L, etc. aren't of the same caliber, then I'm not sure you've been paying attention. You said they were equal or better to NDSU. I do not think that is accurate, at least at this point in time. NDSU > 90% of the SunBelt. The SB opponents will ...
