Overheard in Atlanta recently conjectures on the new Charlotte NBA franchise. One man commented that the city had finally attdved and while sitting at the Atlanta Braves/ Philadelphia Phillies game, I could not help but wonder what it would be like to have mnjor league baseball and football in the Charlotte area. The time has come to get to work on a multi-purpose stadium designed for football and baseball use. People sell Charlotte short, but it rises out of the foothills of the Piedmont like an oasis. We need more dreamers like George Shinn. With an NBA franchise in Charlotte, Greensboro, Raleigh and Winston-Salem would be great areas for franchises in the Continental Basketball League that could give the Char lotte franchise players for the rough years ahead for the NBA . expansion team. ,r > % Congratulations to Bast Mecklenburg goalie Cathy Ho ward who blanked South Mecklenburg 5-0.
