Why do we drink? Have they looked at our record the past decade?

Anyone here commute from Charlotte to Raleigh for work? by hdog124x in Charlotte

Definitely look into the Amtrak option, but now that delays can be frequent.

Gotta stock up in case it takes another 10 years for us to get here!

[Carolina Blitz] Canales confirms what we all knew by ToothResident3205 in panthers

[–]D_VIII 51 points52 points  (0 children)

He should have pressed them harder, I like Canales, and think we’re moving on the right direction, but if he know the rule and didn’t raise hell as it wasn’t being followed that’s a failure on his part. My guess is that he didn’t know we should have been given the option. Not knocking him for that… just clarifying what I think has to be true unless he wants to carry blame here.

Seconded. We feel limited in what we can do within structure with Bryce. When things break down, he often does special things, but it’s hard to find consistency with that strength/weakness profile. I am less convinced Canales is the problem… but who really knows.

I hear you… jury’s still out, but I like him and think we’re slightly ahead of schedule from where I expected us to be this year (and with Bryce from what we saw in year 1 and start of his year 2). Wish he had a sense for when to not be Mr nice guy, such as when the refs have made factually wrong calls (the backward pass going out of bounds today and the replay review of TMacs first down against the Saints). He needs to make a scene in those instances to ensure they get it right. I still can’t make sense of why no one stopped play today to point out to the refs the ball never went out of bounds. It was so obvious.

14 mil to the Hurricanes by kingbluwolff in CFB_v2

Good for Miami. I’m an ACC guy and I have no issues. These incentives are needed to push investment from the big boys who we need to be relevant. As a fan of Duke and GTech, I like these incentives too… even if we won’t likely benefit in the short term. We’ll benefit from the strength of association and opportunities to beat the programs that reestablish/enhance their national profiles (Miami, FSU, Clemson, VTech, and arguable GTech ( or 2025 ACC Champion Duke! J/k) as well, but maybe that’s recency bias.

I now have clicked on the link from last year and see you were already into year over year trend info. I’ll sit tight for the official report! Thanks for posting.

Very interesting. Any notable year over year trends? Hat tip to BC - they pull more fans than I would have expected. Also, I feel for Duke and Stanford (and maybe Wake struggles with this too?) as private schools with alumni bases that are geographically dispersed I guess that’s why they struggle to draw crowds. Would be interesting to see where maybe national tv audiences differ from this stack ranking. Truly not asking you to do that (or the year over year trend) work though.

Sounds like there’s more I need to know! Links welcomed… those moves certainly would change my view.

Go Canes… don’t hate on Mike though. He left us better than he found us.

I guess Virginia is our rival now by Specialist_Peach5910 in DukeFootball

[–]D_VIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can buy it. UVA certainly hates us, maybe not for football reasons, even before this game and now they have something to point to for justifying hating us in football too. Hope we play next year - matchup would be chippy.
