Not even a dusting in Cary. Zero flakes.

Oh I agree totally. I think it was all an avalanche of change precipitated by federal involvement.

I absolutely agree with this theory. They dont get good enough year round weather to invest in a huge theme park and have it be a consistent draw. They have to find something that will make people stop and stay so that they will gamble. I do not know what that will be. There is just not...

Thats kind of what Im saying...they dont have those people. The location they are saying the casino will be has less than 1 million people within 90 mins. The big metros of Raleigh and Charlotte will be well outside of that and already have closer options that are established and branded with...

Ain't that the truth. There isnt a single person in the US who has changed their view on Trans people. The only difference is that right wingers stopped demonizing them daily and moved to a different target.

Yeah...the marketing laws were probably the biggest thing. Remember Joe Camel being marketed to us as kids?

I have no idea if your narrative is correct but I have laughed my ass off reading and watching/listening.

To be fair, without really thinking hard, neither would I.

I get that but I hope you get that would be a different business model than most other major casinos. Being a stopover point halfway to somewhere is not really the casino groove. Folks like that dont spend a lot of time at the machines. There are a couple in Kansas that are kind of that way...

Yeah, thats great, but i wasn't speaking about the future Robeson county with my comment. I was speaking about your drive-by liberal insult. I share your positive hope for Robeson County. I dont think a sizeable casino ever gets off the ground though.

Yeah, i hear ya but historical paradigms matter as much right now as a fart in the wind.

I think it's pretty laughable to believe that liberals believe money solves all ailments. Hell, at this point, liberals are the fiscally conservative bunch by comparison.hurdles. I do hope the increased funding to the area is used wisely to benefit the people. They deserve better than the...

Casinos have so much competition now. It isnt even a slam dunk that the Lumbees would open one anymore. Honestly, do you know how much crime they would have to deal with in a casino on I95? The entire I95 corridor is rough but Roanoke Rapids/Rocky Mount/Fayetteville/Lumberton all in a...

He has been STELLAR tonight. Big shots, great assists, great floor presence. Two wins over top 10 teams in 3 days. They have a loss, yes, but I still say they are the best team in the country.
