Not your grandparents CC team! Haha

add The Beach Boys @ the Chester Fritz.

Yup, I hope and expect it to look good.

I think if North Dakota lowered it to 1% (instead of this way way too high 5%) the investment and oil/gas extraction would increase exponentially overnight...regardless of the price of that extracted oil per barrel is on the open market!!!!. Boom Baby Boom!

Well that picture brought back some memories! Got any interior pictures? I think I was in there once or twice when I was 10 and that was about it, vaguely remember it. The only time third street is busy enough to warrant it closing is Friday and Saturday nights.

GF did have some smaller bands outside rhombus guys blocking the street this summer which was cool. I'm guessing Downtown Development Association put it on.

Town Square can be nice for the "family friendly." I like the idea of using the street and incorporating the bars. Event would have to be free though as buildings and bars would be blocked off to get into from the event.

I've always thought GF could use more of this. Lots of small towns have popular street dances, and Grand Forks could put on a hell of one if they wanted to. Close down third from Demers to University. Rope it off. Allow free roaming in between the bars and drinking outside, invite a loved regional band like Hairball and say screw the noise ordinance, and party til 1am! Throw up the christmas lights that cross the streets downtown that are currently up. Packed street crowded downtown for a block or two. The optics could be great.

Construction jobs down by 24% in Grand Forks in the last 12 months. More than all other 358 similar cities in the US. http://www.jamestownsun.com/news/4399751-grand-forks-metro-lost-most-construction-jobs-us-last-year

Foreigner at the Fritz. Dwight Yoakam at the Fritz. TIm & Faith at the Ralph. Keith Urban at the Ralph. Little Big Town at the Ralph. Not to shabby for upcoming Concerts/Entertainers for a small town on the prairie.

Looks like that new management company has been working overtime: Five Finger Death Punch/Shinedown Thomas Rhett Bill Engvall Rodney Carrington & more!

Perfect time for UND to break their five game winless streak.

Turns out Big Johnson Foles called the Trick Play: http://www.totalprosports.com/2018/02/06/micd-up-turns-out-nick-foles-called-philly-special-trick-play-himself-in-super-bowl-52-video/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=TPS&utm_campaign=twitter And it sounds to me like its called the "Philly Philly" (as in Dilly Dilly).

Chicago, New York, LA have multiple teams so they have a greater chance to be on those lists. Making Philly and Boston the impressive ones.

Get out your google maps. Set the destination 1.2 hours west of GF. Drop a pin. Draw a radius from that point to include 50 miles. Look at any or all towns. I would guess Grand Forks is growing faster. And I would guess that is what moser's metric is above all else. Population growth.

Downtown is very "vibrant." A lot more than it was 30 years ago. It keep becoming more vibrant all the time as developers keep building down there. City leaders don't want a library in a mall. They want a Library they can show off. They should build it on 42nd near the Alerus, another building they like to show off. Instead of looking an hour south, look an hourish to the West of Grand Forks. It might turn your frown upside down. and with that said, here is a thread I started over a decade ago on SiouxSports, that I'm sure you'll find interesting. Fargo just took FedEx air away from Grand Forks: Put that down in the "Hurt" column.

If your the Eagles, the main thing you want on your team is someone who can win you a Super Bowl. They already have that. Why would you trade that away? They don't know when Wentz will be 100%. As the other guy said, maybe Wentz will be more injury prone after the injury. Why would you go from a known backup QB to an unknown backup QB? Don't you want people whos "stock is high" on your team? Only reason to get rid of Foles is if you can't afford him.

The NFL. Its the one factor keeping Minnesota from hosting more Super Bowls. You can guarantee stadium officials were hoping for "unseasonably warm weather" only to find the opposite.

Yeah I think Shannon Sharpe was talking about how the medias response to Cams post game press conference. Shannon Sharpe is saying the same thing you are: "Is the media going to criticize Tom Brady?"

Coldest Super Bowl in NFL history.

Not a Prius, but didn't take long for me to find one: https://twitter.com/bataviasbest/status/960377278508171264

Comedian Kevin Hart was denied by security for trying to get on the Trophy presentation stage, Made it on the NFL Network, claimed he was drunk, and dropped an F Bomb on live tv. Successful night for him so far.

It's starting... http://www.totalprosports.com/2018/02/04/eagles-fans-are-burning-the-city-down-in-celebration-video/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=TPS&utm_campaign=twitter
