    Columbus by way of Lima
    It is (most dump trucks are around 10' in height) but Hocking Street provides access to 33 which provides access to 315 which provides access to 71/70/270/what have you, as well as 670 W just a little further down 33. Dump trucks wouldn't be heading towards downtown on Nationwide.

    There's a lot of 'pre-work' going on right now, mainly beefing up Hocking Street and leveling out our stadium site. I think they might have put in larger storm sewer in the area too.

    Next time I head that way leaving the office, I'll take a drive down there. Nationwide Blvd has been closed from the east side of the railroad underpasses to Hocking St for a while but I noticed the other day it had been opened back up.

    Is this positive fluff article allowed here? It mentions that Crew have been silent on specifics..... thankfully it does not make wild accusations about the silence.

    Because you know, journalism or something. Truth. All that jazz.

    If nothing else, that picture from the change of hands announcement, this job is aging our Coach Caleb. Not sure if his heart took that Pedro PK last night. Has someone checked on him?

    Reading this thread, I take back what I said about wanting the stadium to have Wi-Fi.

    He dressed for last night's game as if he had a cold. He was wearing a jacket with the collar popped.

    I noticed that. Also I noticed you said it was hot. Perhaps he was in the shade? Or he likes jackets. The jacket he wore was something I would not mind having in my closet.

    A question--is this true of the new administration, the old administration, or both??

    It's understandable that Caleb is aging. Pedro is the only player on the team who hasn't regressed under Caleb, and last night even Pedro almost let us all down.

    Hopefully his wife or the Green Apple Martini Brigade can let him know, that even as he's been completely exposed, he has a 5 year contract. He should feel safe.

    Time to pause on the hang vs. the world routine. Boy it is tiring. Make it a about soccer or pipe down.

    Because you were either too thick, or too weak to own up to the critique and kept deflecting. My money is on the latter.

    It's your schtick. I just refused to allow you to change my point and try to obfuscate my argument with gaslighting. It's your defense mechanism to always try to come off being right and just. It's played.

    At least Jack had the balls to face a critique honestly and provide legitimate insight today. I applaud Jack. What times we live in when I now view Jack Sticker as more emotionally mature than the mighty Scot Sedley. What amazing times indeed.

    EDIT: @hardhead just read your *serious mod voice* warning. I'm done. But, I'm not going to let my words be twisted by the master, so I'm stating my very clear point this one last time, again, for the back row with their hands over their ears going na-na-na-na-na-na-na. Hopefully there will be no reason to revisit this yet again, but I'm not holding my breath. If you'd be so kind as to let this last one stand. Thanks.

    So you are saying you still don't have an answer for where articles related to the stadium should go, if not the stadium thread?

    Of course some people are gonna disagree with the article. It's a message board. People disagree on message boards. Some people also agreed with the larger point made in the article about Bez's gibberish and lack of follow up questions.

    But as to where articles about the stadium should go, if not the stadium thread? You'd probably be best served saying you agree with Jim's post from earlier that you chose to mock instead.

    It was sunny and about 78 at the start of the game. The benches had the sun at their back but it would have been warm at field level. It was still sunny but lower in the sky and about 74 at game end. No need for a jacket at all.

    My argument was never about policing content nor it's locale. To figure out what I was talking about, reread all of my responses to you today where I never came close to saying any of the words you keep trying to put in my mouth.

    Ok @hardhead. He can bloviate and repeat non points from here out. And go on some point by point exposé of what he contends was my meaning. I'll leave it as is here and walk away.

    You said it was a trolling article which you disagreed with. You repeated the trolling article argument close to 10 times, while at the same time conceding the main point of the article.

    That's what made your dismissal of Jim's post so hilarious. It's also probably goes a ways to show why you have such difficulty answering the question presented to you.

    I was sitting at field level in the handicap seating next to the Nordecke. The sun was in our face until after halftime but when it finally went down both my kids put their sweatshirts on.

    I don’t think the benches were ever in the sun.

    Peace, love and understanding, my friend. And there was nothing funny about it. Expect nothing less from your home away from home.

    @Kyle Crew or @hardhead, or whomever...
    If you're going to remove my final post to this response written while I was composing what I thought would be my last, kindly remove this one too. KTHXBAI.

    Same old bi weekly shoot the messenger routine with a special guest second gun man. Trust me, there is next to no substance in the previous two pages.

    On this we agree. Though we certainly disagree on the finer points of that statement.

    I saw EndGame tonight. With my husband. Without kids.

    What happened on here? Actually no. I do not care. I am too happy right now.

    Keep firing, assholes.
