You are right. I think it was called Capital City Brewery.
Come to think of it, there have been several things there since Glens Bombay Club

at one time, that center had Hooters, Clicks, Sullivans, Fox and Hound, melting pot, and Poets/Glens Bombay. Not sure if they were all operating at the same time but it had to be close. In the late 80s, early 00s, that area was jumping.

Also, there was a Ruby Tuesday in the parking lot at the corner of College and Corporate.

There are a few places.
Little Dooey
Bulldog Burger (somewhat like the Chimes)
Bin 612
These places are in the Cotton District. There are shops and bars in the area.

Also, there is Taste and Harveys. These are a little nicer establishments.

re: Greg Sankey believes the SEC’s ESPN deal is undervalued.

I think the next billion dollar bidder is going to be Netflix or Prime. The pure value to be gained in subscribers from the SEC rabid nature will elevate those services. The next round is not going to be channel driven, but platform driven.

I think you might be right. Netflix or Prime could easily bid on it. I just wonder if they have the equipment and logistics network needed to broadcast multiple SEC games on a given Saturday. It would be a big startup cost for them. But they can afford it.

I would be interested to see if CBS is willing to place a large bid to get the SEC back. There is no way they are happy with the games they are getting.

It's not like he's playing at State for free and turning down $5M+ offers from other schools. State may not pay him quite as much as he would make elsewhere if an Oklahoma or Michigan decides to offer him 8 figures, but it's not going to be "a lot of money" vs "a little money". It's going to be a lot of money to play at State which he loves, vs slightly more money to play somewhere else as a mercenary.

I think this guy is right

Yeah it was a great movie. As a young kid, I thought the daughter was nice. I wonder if she was ever in anything else?

I hope State ponies up and pays him to stay. I think his loyalty will mean something. State will have to pay more but maybe not as much as some schools are offering.

State deserves some good luck.

re: Holly Rowe showing off them curves yesterday morning

Posted by Dingeaux on 9/21/26 at 8:43 am to ghoast

I think she does a good job and appears to be a professional. However, that choice of clothing is definitely not a good idea. I think just about any woman would think that was not a good choice. I was honestly shocked when I saw that. I assumed she was too classy to wear something like that in public

i wonder what the backgrounds of the people are? usually on these shows, there's at least one survivalist woman who knows what she's doing.

did they just scoop up some random people and drop them off on an island?

re: Manda

Posted by Dingeaux on 9/11/26 at 12:24 pm to AlwysATgr

i find that the one pound packs of Mandy are not great. There are 3 links that are straight and skinny. I find the larger packs, maybe 2 pound, are better. The sausage isn't skinny and it appears to have a different color. If I buy Manda's, i only buy the 2 pound packs. Someone earlier said it was rope sausage.
