    The McCaskeys tried to do a mega suburb development after they were affordable; interest rates are up, general investment is much more focused on AI. I think the missed their window on AH unless they find a partner. They think it needs to be the state. what a mess

    This may seem argumentative, but Daley was right to destroy Miegs

    My point is there are viable LRT options and lines for SF, CTA just needs to design their stations well (hire me 😉 also check the scale your looking at, they really arent that dissimilar

    Surge events are a big deal to LRV operators. Not long after UDub station opened, an Apple Cup (UDub vs Wazzu) game caused such a mess that ST has been investing millions into understanding how to handle them (ah hm, me included as a consultant). It’s really about how fast you can get people off the platform. But it’s made a sore impression on people going to Husky games, and likely has had an effect on Seahawks, Sounders, Mariners, etc https://www.soundtransit.org/blog/platform/what-went-wrong-link-after-apple-cup-what-were-doing-to-ensure-it-never-happens-again

    LRV is still vastly underutilized during gameday. I know this, because I am currently designing the new CID station and we are looking at event overflow (line 2 CID will be about 1/3 mile from Lumen), but its not as much as you'd think in terms of passenger amounts (I have the passenger count on my computer). Its sad that LRV isnt used more for events, but it just isnt yet. So while Lumen has Stadium and line 1 CID, SF has Museum and 18th, which are nearly identical in distances to what Lumen has (maybe a tad more, but were not talking MILES here, maybe 100 yards more) Also, train stations can be added to existing lines, or completely remodeled and upgraded to handle the event numbers. Thats literally what I do for a living ETA: King Street station is near Lumen as well, but thats Amtrak and nobody takes Amtrak to a sporting event

    IDK, Lumen Field and T-Mobile park dont have much better access than SF does and they are doing fine. Both are located just south of DT seattle and site right next to each other. The only real pain is if there are events in both parks, like a Mariners game and a Taylor Swift concert which did happen the same day/night.

    Great game im happy for Sam, even happier the Vikings gave up on him
  8. minnesotacubsfan
    The packers are thin on dline, I would love to grind them to dust over the course of the game
  9. minnesotacubsfan
    I hate the rams more than anything.

    These announcers are horrible. If they aren’t fellating Puka they’re talking about Sam Bradford
  12. minnesotacubsfan
    I wouldn’t mind a + 100 yard game form the old man Moore
  13. minnesotacubsfan
    I think it’s laughable. One of the things they mention as a positive for the AH location was moving NW put them in proximity to “a lot of their fans”. Now they are going to make every one drive to Gary? Yea, no.
  14. minnesotacubsfan
    Not the entire city, but pretty much the entire industrial area yes

    The Bears have screwed this up so much they’ll end up staying in SF for the next 30 years
  16. minnesotacubsfan
    Rodgers being proud of himself for catching Miami with 12 on the field was sad. It’s like, is that all you have left?
  17. minnesotacubsfan
    UNLESS you have a healthy #1 in the blue and orange then he only has 1/2 the field to look at
  18. minnesotacubsfan
    you stop it with a pass rush. Since the bears cant do that with 4 dl, expect lots of blitzing
  19. minnesotacubsfan
    gotta get him ready for the playoffs!
  20. minnesotacubsfan
    all that, and he has some insane skill players who can make that catch, like Moore.
  21. minnesotacubsfan
    actually, great comparison I'm impressed at how high Moore got off the ground to make that catch
  22. minnesotacubsfan
    The running narrative for decades has been that Chicago can't develop a QB, and when the media sees Caleb make risky throws like the TD to Moore, they groan about how "ill advised" such a throw is. Caleb's overall numbers aren't great either, so it just fits their narrative what doesn't fit their narrative is that Caleb and Co continue to win and have done so against the bottom and top teams in the league, so they keep hedging against that. Let them

    very happy to be in a position this late in the season where we have a very meaningful game at SF against GB
  24. minnesotacubsfan
    Was Watson hurt too for gb?

    You act like it’s new in the nfl
