Also, I found this metro population braketology game that is pretty fun to play. I got 60 of 63 correct the first time I played it.. It’s a fun game to fill in time before the CSA/MSA estimates come out on the 18th.. From the US Census- https://www.census.gov/dataviz/visualizations/057/?CID=CBSM Cia...

This upcoming season could see a dramatic uptick for the Jays after the “growing pains” of last season.. CU could potentially have all 5 of their starters back for this season if Martin Krampelj returns. Epperson will return from his injury. The addition of Omaha’s own Shereef Mitchell at point guar...

I’d love to see Omaha/Creighton snag one of these debates

I live very close to Sterling Ridge and I agree with many of the comments. This development is coming along nicely...

We’re getting close!.. The new US Census CSA and metro population estimates are coming one week from this Thursday (on April 18th).. It’s been a long time coming. Usually these estimates come out the 3rd week of March..but for whatever the reason, they were delayed a month this year. As soon as they...

I finally made it to Tired Texan for lunch yesterday. I was very impressed.. I ordered a half slab of ribs and they were fantastic. The dry rub seasoning was delicious and the ribs were fall off the bone good. They offer 2 different BBQ sauces- one regular and one on the spicy side. Both are house m...

"normal retail turnover" should never equate to roughly 40% standing vacancy rate. Period. That's the definition of burying your head in the sand. And, you have one person painting a rosy image of Oak View. Again, I can go off of roughly the last 7 years of a slow decline with nothing tha...

Well, all points notwithstanding, Omaha had terrible and extreme weather this year in February and March..and I do suspect this had a fairly substantial impact on flights and flight loads for the Air Canada service route.. And before I start feeling nervous that OMA will lose its Air Canada route, I...

I think the restaurants that failed probably would have failed at most other locations in the city. I actually enjoyed a couple of them. Chicago Dawg was in a bad bay for the kind of restaurant it was, it should have been more in the middle. Crave was a blah type restaurant. Some of the other place...

That said, I think Coyote is right. No NFL help, it makes things very hard. Im not sure I agree with this anymore. I used to. But now, not so much.. We’ve already had a league that fed into the NFL with, supposed NFL support, called NFL Europe. That folded.. As did the XFL, the UFL and now the AAF....

Of course, the league could fold before the end of April.. Meaning all of this talk would be pointless :lol: ... Ciao..LiO...Peace I don’t think they will fold soon. They just got a new big infusion of money, and their TV ratings are pretty good. Now will they be around next year? The magic 8 ball ...

I don’t know that I’d base my Air Canada OMA flight recommendation due to loads this winter.. Especially in February where Omaha set the record for the snowiest February in history..then March with the extreme flooding issues across Eastern Nebraska and Western Iowa.. and I haven’t even mentioned th...

We have been to 712 in CB numerous times. It is always very busy. Food is good. Everyone we've taken there has enjoyed it. I believe it is owned by the people who have Barley's in the 100 block in CB. Sounds great!., Thanks everyone for the feedback. I certainly look forward to 402 opening. Seems l...

I heard a developer from California is in the process of purchasing the Crossroads development and erecting a 2000 foot skyscraper the shape of a p e n i s.. In honor of old time TV and Comedic entertainer Milton Berle.. Who was reported to have the longest schlong in Hollywood...

Is this the same restaurant as 712 Eat + Drink in Council Bluffs? It sure looks like it. Their web page has an almost exact same description of the place as this 402 eatery in the VP coming soon page- http://sevenonetwocb.com/ Have you or anyone ever visited the 712 location?... Ciao..LiO...Peace

I drove by that location a couple hours ago, and there was a moving truck in front and several workers were literally moving and wheeling restaurant items (chairs, tables etc) out...

I’m not surprised Hoiberg took the job at all..

7 year $25 million dollar deal at $3.57 million a year ranking him the 11th highest paid HC in division I college basketball..

He’d be stupid NOT to take it...

I happened to be in the area.

I didn’t see a thread for this one.. When I was reading up on new stores opening up at Village Pointe, this one caught my eye- 402 Eat + Drink.. It appears it will be another option that will serve food and have an extensive craft beer tap selection and craft cocktails.. I’m all for multiple variety...

Fewer tornadoes are hitting Nebraska as the deadly storms shift east, researchers say That W-H piece is a good read. Written late October of last year. I missed that one.. It sure seems, especially within the last decade or so..the most severe, long track tornadoes have occurred in the Deep South s...

I can’t remember the last time Omaha had a Tornado watch or warning in the month of March.. I don't remember the last time we were under a tornado watch, period -- must have been at least two-three years -- let alone one in March or April. I think you’re right on that, lol.. It’s been unusually qui...

Anything we get in March is just a bonus. I always forget to keep perspective; Our sever weather comes later, as our most active month is June. I don’t know that I’d use the word “bonus”, lol.. But I agree. Growing up here in Omaha, clearly, the most active severe weather months are May and June.. ...

Very nice photo update Brad

It’ll be interesting to take photos 5 years from now at these same angle locations and compare them to these 2019 photos; to see how much the landscape has changed...

My biggest hope for OMA, is we don’t lose Air Canada service... Ciao..LiO...Peace If you want it to stick around, everybody needs to use them! I booked a trip for two people to Montreal on Air Canada from OMA and I'm driving over from DSM. I've also talked a friend that was going to Europe to use t...

I’m gonna go with my traditional guess of 1 person. Lol. Well, at least you’ve lowballed yourself.. In any case, 3 weeks away from today.. I can’t wait. I suspect a notch higher growth % this year.. Keep those predictions coming!.. I think this measures well. Symmetry between the Omaha Metro hittin...

I believe these two population milestones are closely tied together..

Based on current projections-

The Omaha metro will probably hit the 1 million mark one year before the state hits 2 mil.. Think 2023; then 2024..or thereabouts...

Even if the building commission approves this latest proposal in May, there are still an additional hoop to hurdle- City Council approval (along with a final approval from the County Board)..

Still a ways to go, but we’ll see...

Sloppy play by the Jays in the first half with 12 turnovers.. Yet, they’re up on TCU 33-30 at the half. CU needs to clean this up in the 2nd half.
