Update on Sportsbook & Bar @ the XL Center

[Ha Who]

So you can’t just admit you’re wrong to continuously criticize the lack of development that is literally not possible because of litigation?

In all fairness, the rest of the development has been put on hold. Also, there have been issues with the proposed supermarket. From what I understand, parents were complaining because a supermarket was too close to a school. It’s too bad because this would’ve cut down on the food desert in that area.

That’s not my problem. I don’t care how or why there’s no development. End of the day? There’s no development.

There’s a saying that goes “don’t tell me about the labor pains. Just show me the baby”

Pratt Street has always been one of my favorite streets in Hartford. I used to spend time at No Fish Today, Lord Jim's and Vaughan's before the first two closed. I was there last November before a UConn Men's hockey game using the tables near Vaughan's. And I agree it was a good way to spend some time before a game. But I grew up in Hartford so I have no issues with spending time there.

I can’t believe you just said Lord Jim’s. I was throwing back beers there before I was 21 in like 2002. What a throw back. Always thought the 2nd floor bar was a cool one.

That says a lot about you. And none of it is positive.

If you’re following along and have seen deepster’s latest reply you’ll see he isn’t interested in fairness.
