Welcome OneZG.

Absolute cesspool.

 

I'm certainly glad we have an investigative newspaper in Fort Worth again.

I am also glad for I have felt that investigative reporting or news that makes the local power brokers squirm was an uncommon thing here about.


In Topic: College Sports: Big 12

24 July 2021 - 11:40 AM

My sole scenario now that the Big12 has been eviscerated by the OU/UT ploy:

 

New Conference (Empire Conference)

 

North - Washington, Washington St, Oregon, Oregon St

West - California, Stanford,UCLA, USC

Central - Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Arizona St

East - Baylor, Oklahoma St, TCU, Texas Tech

 

The ludricrous idea that to have Texas recruits and exposure, you need the Longhorns. Ridiculous! 

 

With the East Group in place, you get plenty of Texas/Okla exposure without the Longhorns Drama.

Poster #9, your point of view has been heard. You want to put lipstick on a pig..got it!  But you don't win a discussion by invoking "the hate accusation". Stop the inflammatory bullying! Present your argument without making it personal.

 

There are plenty of people who may feel as you do; and there are plenty of people who may not feel as you do. Such is the arena of public debate.

 

If the optics are terrible, frivolous and if the words out of their mouth are insensitive, then it is not the fault of those watching or hearing  them, but the fault of those who are exhibiting the silly behavior. Creepy and wasteful reality TV -The Househusbands of the Atmosphere; the Flying Kardashians.

 

I will stand by my opinion until the "3 berks" learn to demonstrate class in front of that segment of the public who care enough to watch their grandiose puffery.


In Topic: Meacham Airport

24 July 2021 - 10:01 AM

 

Here is the scandal as reported by NBC5DFW - https://www.nbcdfw.c...y-says/2456827/

 

Wow, that Welstead guy sounds like a crook. Glad he's gone.

 

 You might blame for hampering Meacham progress since evidently he was too busy self-serving himself and hoping that he would not be caught.  Airlines are not clueless and would have had some idea about the shenanigens surrounding the private jets interest and how and who they are ramp serviced.

 

Two major carriers had and may still have interest in Meacham during Welstead tenure; Walstead probably never returned their calls.  Airlines are not ready to fight against all of the self serving groups based at Meacham while it is actively going on. You might reasonably surmise that Meacham would be further along the way if not for the corruption; and add the fact that Mayor Price poured cold water on the building interests of potential carriers.

 

As for daily flights, NBCDFW (2018) reported City think 50 per day.
