Charlotte is growing like crazy, and there are a ton of things to do, so don't bring up stuff like "there's nothing to do in Charlotte" and other bs like the weather.

^the charlotte nightlife is getting pretty sick in uptown charlotte. The lake nightlife is awesome as hell though, right on par w/ downtown raleigh. the only reason i would say uptown isn't is b/c it's so damned expensive.the lake is awesome though around cornelius where i grew up. there are several decently priced bars right on the lake where a lot of the party crowds like to chill. if you can go during the day it's even better w/ all the boat traffic coming in and out. the 4th was awesome as hell on the lake.

didn't see this anywhere else, but herbstreet has us as the team to watch on their "under the radar" clip on espn.com basically said, that we lost 6 games by a touchdown or less and all we were lacking was discipline last year and that tom O'brien will fix that problem and are bringing back a lot of talent.

^^^^There is more to do in Charlotte than Jacksonville. Jacksonville isn't much warmer, and Charlotte is much more centrally located geographically. Atlanta could be decent, but they already host the SEC Championship so that is off the table. I'm not a big fan of Tampa (not much better than Jacksonville, and further for everyone), and the Citrus Bowl in Orlando is a hell hole. DC could be OK with a good facility at the Redskin's Stadium and decent geography, but you are moving into cooler climates. Also, DC really doesn't care much about college sports (well, at least the media doesn't). Miami wouldn't be terrible, but the champ already goes to the Orange Bowl most years. Really most of the decent stadiums in the ACC area are the home of one of the schools, or in Florida, or otherwise occupied (Atlanta). Really the only locations that could host it on the East Coast would be: Miami, Tampa, Orlando-debatable b/c the Citrus Bowl is pathetic, Jacksonville, Charlotte, DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, NY/NJ, Boston. In light of this, I'd rank the attractiveness of ACC Championship locations as:1) Charlotte2) Jacksonville3) Washington, DC (well, Landover)4) Miami5) Tampa6) Baltimore7) Orlando8) Philadelphia9) NY/NJ10) BostonJacksonville is the status quo, so may actually gets bumped behind DC. Anything behind Charlotte is a distant second. None of the other locations offer the total package of community support, geography, facilities, and accomodations that Charlotte would offer.[Edited on July 25, 2007 at 11:28 AM. Reason : .]

Not really football related, but State related none the less. I think we should have a billboard on I-40 going toward Raleigh, sometime past the Chapel Hill/Durham exits that shows some students doing research/studying and says something like "NC State...We're Miles Ahead" . Kind of an indirect slap in the face to UNC and Duke.Now back to football, how do you all think Stone will do at TE this year? He could catch the ball fairly well, from the few times I saw him get the ball thrown to him. Maybe he could end up like that one TE for the Jacksonville Jaguars that was originally a QB in college, but was drafted to be a TE b/c of his size and agility. Everyone remembers the karate kick looking move Stone did to get more yards.[Edited on July 27, 2007 at 8:02 PM. Reason : ]

Suggestion for the band; please learn and play "Tequila" in the stands. Imagine the student section dancing in the stands to that and yelling tequila during the song.
