@DylanByers Problem isn’t exclusive to this bar. A couple years back, I asked a Delta SkyClub employee to put CNN on one of their many TVs. I was told they were forbidden airing any “political” or “controversial” content

@treeaston @AJentleson I guess I’m curious… did this not matter as much to Dems during ‘88 DNC? Or ‘12 DNC in Charlotte?

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@BDAHT False. Brooklyn Village was in Second Ward. Spectrum Center is in First. Also, how you framed this (implying homes and buildings were bulldozed for SC) is super misleading. It was a sea of surface parking lots before

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@jmart IMHO, it starts with new faces in leadership, practicing what you preach and creating a unified message that actually resonates

@CSOonX Can they not do a Final Four in any other city that isn’t Indianapolis, Phoenix, Houston or Atlanta?

@LaughAtLefties @jackbutler4815 @WSJFreeEx So predictable. Resort to character assassination and attacks on intelligence when you can’t stand to be challenged. No wonder you have to hide behind a fake screenname 🤡

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@maustermuhle @BrianneKNadeau Let’s see… more people in a building and fewer ways to escape during a fire or emergency. What could possibly go wrong?

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@LaughAtLefties @jackbutler4815 @WSJFreeEx Ah, internet tolling. Always handy when you're not able to intellectually engage

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@bobEbaybay @jackbutler4815 @WSJFreeEx Multiple reasons. Truss bridges, like the old Key Bridge, are cheaper. But they're not as strong as its replacement, a suspension bridge, which is costlier to engineer and construct. New bridge will also be taller ($$) and shipping canal widened ($$$) for today's modern ships

@CoachRexWalters At the end of the day, it's a business decision. And college sports, like it or not, is a business. I doubt it's anything personal.

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@nba__whiteboy IF this is what they're doing -- and it's a *big* if -- it totally sucks Hubert has been placed here. But it might be the best for both sides. Hubert is allowed to leave with pride, saying he made the decision on his own. UNC can claim they tried to make it work, didn't fire him

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@OrmondInsider My guy, this makes absolute zero sense. All of the speculation around Hubert's future is embarrassing for him -- it's near impossible for him to come back next year. Donors can tell you whatever they want, but the only people who matter are those in UNC admin and athletics' dept

@tpinsonn bring the 💨

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

Hey, @espn, I got an idea…

How about when you sign commentators, put a clause in their contract that forces them to adhere to retweeting and posting stuff rooted in fact?

Otherwise, I have no reason to trust them — or take them seriously

[Jay Williams @RealJayWilliams]

This is why I said NIL has killed the mid major cinderellas from deep NCAA tournament runs.

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@DMVAdventures I agree with everything in this. A good place if it’s *along* your route. But by no means would I go out of my way for it. The real killer: A regular, non-big box gas station with the restrooms of Buccee’s and food quality/selection of @Wawa

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@the_transit_guy Yeah, maybe. But consider this: Architects can -- and often do -- make a structure transparent when a final design hasn't been chosen. They include it to show massing and how the eventual size of the structure will affect the site

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@davidhogg111 So, a couple things... 1) I'm also not thrilled about parking decks taking up prime waterfront space *and* obstructing views of this great facility, but many sububanites (fans) drive. 2) Architects (sometimes) make renderings transparent when final design hasn't been decided

[Evan Semones @evansemones]

@BlackAndNative1 Yes. Peep the logo on top from Google StreetView (circa 2009):
