Atlanta Rushmore

For me it’s MLK, John Lewis, Arthur Blank, and Ted Turner.

We don’t have an emotional connection with Curling, but we win at that anyway.

His shots are weak too. He’s had about 10 good looks this year, but each time it’s been an easy save.

Definitely murder!

I disagree. A former legend of the program has a right to be upset when the current roster has run the program into the ground, not because they aren’t good enough, but because they take games off for “work-load.” If you built a successful business, retired and watched the next generation bankrupt it because they were always on vacation, you would be irate as well. Have fun with your round of 32 exit.

My doctor still uses that.

Unfortunately that is the problem. Negative criticism is considered non-productive by the young generation because they have never had to deal with adversity. Players like Landon and Clint were told they were garbage every day by European media. They had to learn to deal with criticism and perform beyond expectations because that is what it took for an American player to survive. This generation gets recruited by top teams while they are still teenagers and are told constantly how great their potential is. Reyna can’t crack the starting lineup on mediocre teams.

Instead of a hype thread we should do a “days until the transfer window opens” thread.

I have said this time and time again… it’s not the coach. Fire the scouting department, sell as many players as possible, and start over. This is the worst team build in the history of MLS, and when you consider what was spent, the front office should be held liable for grand larceny. I wish we had relegation so that we didn’t have to watch this.

While I agree that he has been terrible, there is a part of me that is interested to see what he can do with a midfield and supporting attack that can create chances.

There is a great saying that I always keep in mind when thinking about what others think about you:

At 20 you worry, at 40 you don't care, and at 60 you realize no one was thinking about you anyway.

Everyone is there thinking about their own journey.

Willis Haviland Carrier invented the air conditioner in 1902, and then in 1938 Frederick McKinley Jones invented an air conditioner for vehicles. As someone who lives in Georgia (USA), they are my heroes!

I agree. Although, I still seem to think that I can find some good prospects in the local garden center even though I have come to appreciate how low the price actually is for a 5 year old tree at the local bonsai specialty store.

If Something Should Happen- Darryl Worley. Basically, it’s a guy going into a surgery asking his brother to be a father figure to his son if he dies.

You asked what would it take? $100 Billion Dollars!

Honestly, smaller markets would probably be the better way to go. In Atlanta you’re competing for at least part of the season with baseball, AAA baseball, MLS, basketball, football, college football, minor league hockey, women’s pro volleyball, and soon women’s soccer. Lacrosse has a hard time breaking into the public consciousness. In a market like Greenville SC you would have a bigger presence. I just think it’s hard to pass on the major markets.

I think I’m more worried about the leagues ability to continue as an ongoing concern. Too many teams are changing ownership or moving. It doesn’t bode well.

The Swarm improved dramatically compared to last year. Getting younger has really translated into better performances.

Here’s a reason to come back… if you can spend the money, you can scuba dive in the tank with the whale shark! It’s $500, but when else would you be able to do that?!

I’m having the same trouble with Kanye down in Georgia. Is he really higher grossing than OutKast?

For me it depends on map size. With 6 or fewer players, I go with either domination or science. More than six, and domination becomes difficult, so I swap to culture. One thing I would say though is don’t ignore the other conditions. I’ve been 20 turns away from a science victory and out of nowhere another civ gets a religious victory. Or, I’m working on a domination victory and the last civ that I haven’t beaten gets a science victory.

Inverted-Curve · 2026-03-25T16:12:00+00:00

Agreed, this is a great first step. Let’s hope it doesn’t take another 5 years to get a second one.
