Didn't they already pull the project? And Rock Hill is moving forward with the interchange? Wow, never done business in SC but it sounds wild as hell lol. 

Yeah, I guess the ship was already in motion and it's too late to turn....or this is a way to put pressure on Tepper and waste taxpayer dollars at the same time.

My limited understanding is that the county may step in and do what Rock Hill couldn't or wouldn't do to make it happen...they just have to beg and renegotiate with Tepper. Maybe this is a little in motion and good faith in those discussions? IDK, trying to make sense of governments is a path to insanity from what I have seen.

Here in Wake Co. They build a off ramp for a neighborhood that was stoped for like 2yrs (Wendell) but after some time the neighborhood is being built now and I'm sure they are happy they went and built the off ramp anyways.

That’s my understanding as well. It certainly would explain this latest development.

It happened in Colorado. Brand new interchange between I-70 and CO58 to support a new Cabela's that never happened.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
