Papa Doug's Austin hotel faces drainage problems
Maybe Dougie could buy the local daily in Austin, and use it to sing the praises of his hotel to the people of Austin.— May 3, 2013 10:02 p.m.
Padres ownership offers contract extension to Chase Headley through the media
The Padres are setting the table to trade Headley before the trading deadline. Fowler is an idiot--going to the press about the club's "desire" to sign Headley long-term should never have happened, as Headley had already made it known he did not wish to discuss a contract during the season. So Fowler flaps his gums, and has backed the club into a corner. Headley, per his request, will not discuss a contract until the season is over. Do the Padres want to risk having him go to arbitration next year, where he would probably get $12 mil, $13 mil, or maybe more, or trade him for whatever they could get for him? Don't forget, this is the same Padres club that says they must "build from within". Headley is about as much as "from within" as they can get. They drafted him, developed him (except for wasted time in the outfield), so now it's time to put up or shut up, but not until after the season, as per Headley's request.— May 3, 2013 10 p.m.
Desert DINKs
Record attendance at Petco Park--April 6, 2009; 45,496, so yes, the population can all fit in the park (but a few may have to stand).— May 2, 2013 5:11 p.m.
Housing values in Western metro areas soaring
Even with the extremely low interest rates, who will be able to afford these homes? Has there been a jump in wages that would allow another wave of home buying from regular residential homebuyers? I thought wages were pretty flat in this area--wouldn't this lead to another round of foreclosures and the sounds of bubbles popping again?— April 25, 2013 4:34 p.m.
Talk low and slow at Longhorn Cafe and Saloon
My only comment would be that Pal Joey's is in Allied Gardens, not Del Cerro. That would be too much excitement for Del Cerro anyway.— April 24, 2013 12:05 p.m.
Ramona Unified School District board votes to cut teachers’ salaries
Steve--that is true, but sticking the teachers with a retroactive pay cut for the whole school year is not.— April 24, 2013 11:45 a.m.
Economy hops: thank craft brewers
Well that settles it then--instead of expanding the convention center, let's do something that REALLY makes sense. Build more microbreweries!!!— April 22, 2013 11:42 p.m.
