@MLBRaleigh @nut_history @baseballinpix @FOS @TalkinBaseball_ There can be two truths
1) Charlotte's ballpark is beautiful, one of the best in baseball, but cannot be expanded to MLB standards and land isn't suitable even if demo'd.
2) The propery is owned by Meck County, and there is plenty of land in uptown owned by the county.

Coby White ended his Media Day press conference by saying, "Shoutout @rodboone" as he left the podium.

[Steve Reed @SteveReedAP]

At the end of today's media presser, Coby White says "shout out (to) Rod Boone." ... We all are missing you here today, brother.

Here's the moment #Hornets guard Coby White threw out support for former Observer beat writer @rodboone who's position was eliminated. Coby gets it.

When your paper of record shares stories from 16.5 hours away as though they happened locally, it’s no wonder the loonies on this hellscape website think Charlotte is such a bad place to live.

[Y’all Weekly @yallweekly]

Are Toll Lanes an asset with lasting value for our community, or are they more trouble than they’re worth? Clayton Sealey (aka @CLTDevelopment) says go back to the drawing board.

@ABuschBoyd But at this point there is really nothing we can do unless we can get home rules exemption from Raleigh to make our own decisions. We need city friendly representation in the General Assembly.
