Watch the vid -- it doesn't insinuate "biggest".  From an urban planning perspective, Charlotte has one of the worst examples of sprawl gone wrong but they've been correcting.  Vid title is a bit click-baity.

Yeah I watch a lot of his stuff. His voice though ... wow. I'd think LA and Jacksonville are two of the biggest. And yes, Charlotte's is wrong on so many levels. Lived there 18 years and I was always ... this is Charlotte of the 1970s trying to house Charlotte of the 00s.

As a land developer 'sprawl' is a mixed word. 

Sprawl is usually referred in a negative way as it insinuates things being spread out and being ineffective. But I would argue that most citys that are not land locked against a mountain or ocean need to accept sprawl because people dont want to build up. 

A land planners wet dream would be to have an entire city only take up 1 square mile and be 1 mile in elevation but thats not the reality for most cities in North America.

Anyone who thinks any eastern city sprawls has clearly not been to a city like Denver or Phoenix. The Denver and Charlotte metro area have similar population sizes while the Charlotte metro area is roughly 3000 square miles and the Denver metro area is closer to 8500. 

It's not shear size.  Having lived in Denver, Southern Cal, DC/Nova, & Chicago, it's a multitude of factors.  Sprawl classification has many facets.

      I think Bryce looked better since he's been back.  But I don't have much faith in him.  He needs to be consistently better.  If he finishes the season improving game after game, then we're in a good spot. If he doesn't, then we need to move on.

      So what's the plan with Moton?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Has the ball on every offensive snap.  Calls line protection schemes and adjustments. Often squares up against the biggest man on defense. On running plays is often tasked with making second level hits. Sometimes wears a bear costume and buys ads in the local paper declaring this will be a playoff year. Sorry, kinda missing Ryan Kalil there.
