  1. Clemson had a really good class this year, it wasn't top ten, but it was top 15 I think.

    I think Pryor is going to Ohio State. He was all set to sign with them on NSD, but decided to wait at the last minute.

    Clemson did have a top ten class in fact, most recruting sites have them 2 or 3.... like ESPN and rivals

  2. Virginia shouldn't be that high. UConn handed that game to them yesterday. Two bad snaps in the shotgun for UConn on the last drive, otherwise a decent/mediocre Big East team goes into their home and beats them. Virginia should be number 25, tops.

    Why shouldn't they be ranked that high? A loss is a loss. At the end of the year, if they run the table (which wont happen) then they should be ranked up there. If UCON gave them the game, then they should have loss. Because of UCON play (the loss) they are not ranked in the BCS. So it's no need for should of could of would of.

  3. Virginia Beach 10th best city for job hunting

    #10 Virginia Beach, Va.

    Virginia Beach's economy relies in large part on trade and the military. Recently, some corporations have set up back-office operations in the city, partly to take advantage of the military spouses who are available for part-time work. The Virginia Beach metropolitan area includes Norfolk, Va., and Newport News, Va., and extends into North Carolina.

    Unemployment rank: 16

    Cost of living rank: 42

    Median household income rank: 59

    Income growth rank: 10

    Job growth rank: 25

  4. I am 32 years of age from Beograd, Serbia and am currently working for a Virginia Beach land developer whose wife saved my life during the 1999 NATO intervention in the Kosova War. She left the country with a flesh wound and I left behind her with a bullet having gone clean through my shoulder and now I'm working for her husband and I love land development and Urban Planet and America in general. I'm not a ###### but I cried when I walked into Farm Fresh Grocery Store... all that food... incredible. Only in America!!! I thank you for the opportunity to read and to be a part of these forums.

    Welcome and we are glad to have in this forum.

  5. After reading the consultant firms statements I'm fine with the city's decision not to approve this development. They should also reject the trash dump a.k.a "terminal" for that area. In this case having nothing built there is way better than the alternative. Say NO to trash Portsmouth!!!!

    I too understand why they rejected the development, but damn a trash dump. I guess they need money bad.

  6. I read the article in the newspaper today about the overhaul of downtown newport news. I really think they should make the waterfront into a strip. Something like Va Beach. There's no destination that has an attraction like that on the peninsula. I would really hate to see the waterfront only served to a few home owners instead of sharing it with the whole city and the rest of the peninsula. If the city does this right, this area will be in for something very nice.

    I don't think that would be a good idea. Let VA Beach be VA beach and NN be NN.

  7. I think that we could support a baseball team before a football team.

    As much as I love baseball, it is a past time sport. There are more football fans in the area than baseball. The sport of baseball is very expense to mange. Football is an easier sport to support for the reasons hoobo and Greekboy80 have named. Football is just a more sensible sport. Baseball has too many home games for this area to support. People go for the skins, cowboys, and panthers just because we don't have a team. Even if people didn't like the team, just because we had it the seats would be filled. Norfolk for the NBA or now the NFL.
