I'd like to hear your opinion of the area.

I have been contacted about a contract to hire position there, and am unsure of the area. I know it has UNC Pembroke close by, but that is all. I have generally not heard anything good. Not really any bad though so I come to the huddle where theres always someone to say something bad about anything.

So are the schools crappy? Is the night life non-existent? Would you rather drive around this area of the state as opposed to through it?

James R. Jordan, Sr., the father of basketball legend Michael Jordan, was murdered on July 23, 1993, at a rest stop off Interstate 95 near Lumberton.

i don't know B. I just looked at info on wiki, and according to it...the average household may not be able to afford a computer. They may never see the thread.

Yeah, you have a point...

I'm only a little familiar with the area... aside from traveling through there on occasion, I have done a little business with Robeson County and dealt with some of their county employees and spent a little time there in downtown Lumberton. It's not a bad little town, but like I said, you're used to Wilmington, and it's by no means a metropolis, but there's a pretty big difference between the two.

LIAR!! Random drunk guy at the bar came up to me on sat tapped me on the shoulder and told me Jordan's dad was still alive I said "ok thanks for sharing" he continued to ramble on about how changed his face and Michael paid for it. Pretty sure it was Venom talking to me.

its sounding like I don't want to be full time for this place. may have to contract for them though until they offer the job IF it makes sense. meaning they'd have to cover living expenses. rules of unemployment pretty much obligate me to.

      Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts?

      It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
