    I have an old Aussie rugby coach that’s in Austria now and he’s always posting about Russian propaganda against America.

    Barkers closed. This one hurts. The owners just retired.

    I'm sure they will at some point. Probably don't want to be bothered with anything for a while.

    Ressler had an interview on 92.9 prior to their home opener last week. He is determined as hell to develop the Gulch. He said it verbatim, then was asked about how Amazon would impact the plans and said he would obviously welcome it. Also made it seem like he had his sights on refurbishing CNN Center (which I also wonder what its future entails). Just made a huge impression on me how much he and his brother was to make investments surrounding the arena.

    Her or Fort.

    Neither have a chance. It's going to be Bottoms and Buckhead Betty in the run off. Too many people fracturing up the votes after the two main people. Bottoms/Norwood have 50%

    Aman/Fort/Woolard and maybe another all have like 10 or so.

    It annoys me. I wish the stupid fucks with 10% could pool together.

    None of them particularly stand out from the others. If I was an Atlanta resident, I would choose from the following:

    - Norwood
    - Bottoms
    - Aman
    - Woolard
    - Hall

    The first two are the best local politicians, but can you imagine these two on the national/global stage. The next two are good managers of city operations. The last one is the great all around guy but has no clue how to run a political campaign.

    I'm not a huge fan of his, but I'm still expecting Kasim to jump in despite what he has said in the past.

    I dont like that Norwood wouldn't even support Ossoff over Handel.

    Man the rural parts of Georgia would freak over a black women as the Governor.

    Posted before but Abrams took some heat for not really condemning protesters at an Evans event. Race is obviously going to play a huge role in either candidate's chances unfortunately.

    Thats not even the biggest problem with her. See her refusal to disavow Trump (the guy who lambasted the City of Atlanta) or kicking the can on badges of the Confederacy.

    Listen to her speak. It would be pretty abhorrent if a person like that were elected Mayor of Atlanta.

    And yea, Abrams is basically being given the nomination by the Ga Dem establishment.

    Think Evans would be the better selection.

    Kasim reiterated again today he is not running for Governor.

    Had my apartment broken into last night and my keys and car stolen. My roommate and I were asleep in our rooms. Not the best feeling to wake up in the morning and your keys aren't there and your window was forced open.

    My neighbor is getting his house renovated and one of the contractors left his van running by the curb while he ran inside to grab something. 2 minutes later he comes out and it's gone. This shit is getting out of hand lately. It was obviously dumb to leave the keys in the car like that but it's in a relatively nice neighborhood and he was gone for 2 minutes and there was someone just waiting to pull that shit

    1 - Lots of Land around there, but lacks direct connectivity unless you count the walk to Ga State station
    2 - very very interesting. Esp with the Quarry about to open. Just no existing Office Space around there at the moment
    3 - interesting that the Stitch concept is something the city is buying in on
    4 - this makes a ton of sense, esp with current office space at BellSouth. Just add in 11 and 12 here.
    5 - Cant see it. Just make it Movie Production HQs
    9 = Yes please
    10 - like Turner Field, has to be contingent on CoA investing in Transit connection to Marta
