    Shit, hope he’s ok...the article made it sound like he was recovering comfortably. Eventually he’ll probably hand the franchise down to Nick (son). Also can we just skip the Finals and get straight to the draft? Summer League? Our frontrunners at #5 are Jarrett Culver, De’Andre Hunter, and Cam Reddish. With Zion, Ja, and RJ out of the way, the Lakers are presumed to be taking either Hunter or Darius Garland. Even with the disappointment of falling to 5 and LeBron’s Lakers drafting ahead of us (barring a trade), we have solid choices. Do we go with high risk but high upside in Reddish or a more “bust-proof” player like Jarrett Culver, who may be the most versatile player in this draft. Also Culver and Hunter likely would instantly improve our terrible defense.
  2. Thanks, I’ll never be able to unsee that.
  3. Don't forget about the Walkie-Talkie. ?
  4. I don’t know, Dive Coasters are cool and a giga-diver would be something, but I want the KI giga to have more elements like ejector airtime hills, intense/banked turns. More like Fury at Carowinds? But at this point I guess the design is already going ahead!
  5. I can’t help but feel slightly envious of Nashville and the other cities getting 20+ story Kenects that dwarf ours, but it’s no use to think that way.
  6. ...that looks a lot shorter than Ohio Bell Tower considering the difference of just 12 feet between the two buildings.
  7. Mods, ban this man.
  8. Yes (just used it last night!)
  9. Belongs better in a plains/heartland city (Indianapolis’s Banker’s Life Fieldhouse) than The Forest City. I know the term doesn’t technically have any relation to actual fields, but that doesn’t change my opinion.
  10. How’s this for a new team name?
  11. We need some creative solutions...The Rock, The RockMor(e), The RockHouse? I don't like The Rocket or anything involving "rocket" really...
  12. Time for a f#&king crusade!
  13. The state of our river was an inspiration for the creation of the EPA in 1970; it's oddly satisfying that 50 years after the last fire, some of that overhanging stigma tied to the river/region/city is being lifted.
  14. Yeah, I personally would prefer the laneway concept if it was somehow a direct extension of E 4th, but since that's unlikely, how cool it would be to get from Superior all the way down to Huron through three consecutive blocks of arcades!
  15. I'd rather have a full-on laneway like the Melbourne ones they hinted at, or a real state-of-the-art modern arcade than this awkward, enclosed, overshadowed sort of laneway we're at now.
  16. This could look pretty bad, but I want to see something more unique -- like London's City Hall.
  17. "Loans" could be center aligned below "Quicken"
  18. Nah man, civil disobedience is where it’s at. I propose we peacefully form a human chain at all entrances to the lot.
  19. (@dtCLEresidents has several thousand followers and has retweeted recent NEOtrans articles)
  20. So sorta like this (another one of Westlake Reed’s conceptual renderings for the site)
  21. I would prefer tall-but-slender structures of 12-15 stories, or even in the mid rise range, over a massive 100 ft tall wall here, especially with it being across from the cemetery. Looking up E14th, it just has a better look imo.
  22. Based on initial feedback, this is the best version of nuCLEus we've seen yet. After the accidentally-leaked renderings in January, I recall a spokesperson responding that they had gone through something like "several hundred" potential designs. I'd love to see some of those!
  23. This angle looks great! They really went for a NYC feel in this rendering.
