Yes, this will make me sound like I'm 117 years old but I still want Hoops coaches to wear suits on the sideline. The college game always had outliers like Bobby Knight and Bob Huggins in their attire, but having most of the Coaches today look like your local Golf pro is weak.

Speed cameras are a proven tool to make our streets safer. As kids head back to school, we’re focused on protecting everyone. Whether you walk, bike, take Muni, or drive, you deserve to get where you’re going safely.
