Raleigh Stadium/Arena/Sports Discussions

I get more out of TBJ. Don’t want to pay for two news outlets like I don’t want to pay for two audio streaming services. :stuck_out_tongue:

I currently go both ways TBJ and N&O
TBJ may have to go by the wayside as I think the N&O has more to offer? JMO :wink::+1:

The Canes are seeking to host an NHL Stadium Series game in January or February 2021. No potential opponent has been named.

They’re just asking for a couple hundred grand to get Carter Finley ready for an outdoor game should they be awarded one.

Temp actually has very little to do with ice conditions. It’s all about direct sunlight and humidity.

You guys do know that you can just open a private browsing window (safari) or incognito window (Chrome) and you can view any N&O article, right?

When I try it works for maybe a second and then says I don’t have any articles left. This happens on incognito mode.

Downtown South is weak I’ve given up hope for it really cause there no MLS now if Malik was serious and not trying to insult him but if he was more competitive even with competition from Tepper instead of being weak and giving maybe we wouldn’t be in this situation, but it is what it’s is, still fighting for Raleigh baseball I wanna be an investor in that.

Why waste a day or two traveling (and the $$$)? I’m glad to read they are staying here for it.

Then it should be a “staycation”, not a “retreat”. No?

What part of retreat implies it can’t be local?

Retreat usually implies movement longer than a couple city blocks.

Don’t get sassy with me, @R-Dub. I’ll Tweet bad things about you!

Idk, we call rooms in houses “retreats”.

Maybe those that have houses with East and West wings, I don’t know. I could start calling the bathroom “my retreat”, but I’m pretty sure my son would just roll his eyes with scorn.

Just a fancy term for an isolated space free from the distractions of the main living area. See also: Study
