"Samuel Miles Cunningham and Adam J. Morris are now friends. You suggested this friendship."
I feel like a pimp.

Just what Adam needs.
News Feeds of Agreen and miles’ wall postings.
Joe Morgan: (On Jay Bruce) I think he will. He brings energy to the team, and besides that, he is a pretty good hitter.
Ken Tremendous: I like that the #1 reason he will help his team is: "energy," and the distant #2 reason is: "ability to hit baseballs."
Now Adam can "know your status"
with facebook’s status alerts!

Hey, we're friends now!
The only reason I became friends with you was to see a picture of you to see if you were really as legendary as you proclaimed, but all you have is pics of athletes.
Weak. Freaking. Sauce.
The 40 Trumps All!!!
I also was extremely disappointed.
I expected to see a beast of a man residing behind Miles TO front. Only to be disappointed by more pictures of simply “not miles”.
This is the Texas Rangers, professional destroyers of hope, we're talking about. - BAC

the massive amount of diaries totally unrelated to the topic of texas rangers baseball is more likely his reasoning.

That's the problem Miles
It’s not just the threads that are clearly labeled. It is infecting most threads on this blog.
I disagree
the majority of baseball related threads consist of lengthy discussion about baseball issues.
+ 1 absolutely!
There is a wealth of baseball talk on here. Sometimes you have to break it up with a little humor so we don’t all become droned out stat geeks devoid of personality.

Miles has a ton of personality. Too bad he’d not allowed to share it.
"I am right even when I'm wrong."
the unstoppable MILES
He's like Volquez
He has a ton of potential and got rushed to the Majors. Came up, flat bill, baggy pants thinking he was the baddest man in town. Got lit up, and yet people were still excited because it was fun watching the future as fans…. Then the GM says enough of this shit and sends him to A ball and designates strict rules he has to follow to make it back to the Majors.(AJM banning Miles from saying BANG) Miles may fulfill his promising, promising potential, sadly however it probably won’t be for this blog… I won’t be surprised if AJM is working the phones this winter with Rev on a trade….
hahaha good analogy
But this time Volquez stays. He’s been banned from Halos Heaven he can’t go there.
Lone Star Ball is nothing without Miles. He ain’t going anywhere. Someone has got to make us all laugh. Miles is hysterical!

i doubt it was him
i don’t think i’ve ever seen him delete an entire post. maybe comments though…

was Adam, I’m ok with it.
If it was Zywica, I’m going on a killing spree.

Yeah,
I’m pretty sure it was Zywica.

Networking.
The law is an almost purely referral based business.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."

Do you not see...
how keeping up with old contacts in a fashion that doesn’t involve a whole lot of time spent on upkeep would be a benefit?
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
In theory
Yes.
Facebook, though, is populated disproportionately by sub—22 year olds, and it’s a pretty unprofessional upkeep medium.
LinkedIn...
is what most of the people that I work with use, but Facebook is less unprofessional than myspace. Either way, if it turns into one or two referrals over a 2 or 3 year period, it’s likely done its job.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
I know...
you seem to know a lot about what it takes to run a successful law practice.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Heh
You crack me up. Can’t actually answer an argument, so just insult the guy.
I bet that kind of immaturity makes for a great law practice. You tell me, though. As you said, I wouldn’t know.
The only people...
that would associate with Adam through Facebook would have Facebook accounts of their own. So why would they not refer Adam business because they thought Facebook was unprofessional?
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Hot but married
Southern culture is one that promotes early marriage. Like if a girl over 22 out here isn’t married or at least seriously involved in a relationship that everyone knows will lead to marriage, everyone looks at her like she’s a freak. It kind of sucks. I do all right, but I miss Florida.
The 40 Trumps All!!!
early marriage = early divorce
the 30 year crew should be bustling – as long as you can handle kids

ugh
I’m 27. I want no part of a 30 year old divorced chick and her kids who already hate me cause I’m not their real dad.

Speak of the devil…
The chick I’m trying to get next to right now is 20.
The one I really want though is the new girl at the gym. So cute. She looks like a gymnast. I have to test out the Seinfeldian theory about gymnasts at least once before I settle down. It’s one of my goals. But that chick doesn’t give me the time of day. It sucks. I hate starting conversations with chicks at the gym, but this chick won’t even give me a chance. And I’ve tried, too. I’m like a week away from just going and flexing in front of her to see if that’ll at least earn me some eye contact.
The 40 Trumps All!!!
you've got to make her laugh
so if flexing gets it done…go ahead.
I couldn’t ever pick up a girl at a gym. I had a friend pick up 2 girls once, and I ended up going out with the other but he did all the work, and I had a cougar give me her number…never called her. Other than that, ZERO luck at gyms.

Isn't your GF really short?
Just go to a strip club and if she gets mad when you come back smelling like alcohol and stripper just be like, “What? I left you a note on top of the fridge...”
The 40 Trumps All!!!
Uh,
I go for the girl with a better plan to pay for her tuition.
Time you enjoy wasting was not wasted.
so people get on facebook
to watch other people but not to actually use it? it’s not a terrible analogy I guess but still seems weird
Rare Gnats Sex
Heh, it probably was a terrible analogy
But what I meant was that what people do with their recreation time isn’t always a good indication of what they want when they get serious.
I’d bone down on a stripper, but I wouldn’t date/marry one.
I might be facebook friends with a lawyer, but I wouldn’t choose a lawyer who was all about facebook. Seems kind of unlawyerly.
Plus I wanted to work a strip club reference into this thread. Class it up a bit, you know?
The 40 Trumps All!!!
i see
well, it depends on what type of relationship you are maintaining.
If you are just staying friends with high school or college friends, then facebook shouldn’t be a reflection of your professionalism one way or the other. So, just because you have a facebook, I’m not going to assume you suck at your job.
However, because we’ve kept in touch, the next time you need an attorney, you might think of me – especially since you know me from before and generally trust me (maybe). I could see how that sort of networking would be good.
Now, if you’re joining law groups or befriending people you don’t know trying to get business – yeah, a little strange
Rare Gnats Sex
Plenty of
My family’s clients search specifically for Facebook and Myspace accounts when determining who they’ll go to, because they feel that’s an indicator of bad judgment.
I know you think you’re always right, but at least consider that intelligent people can disagree with you.
I know you think you're always right...
Pot, kettle…
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Whatever, Brett.
Your family has plenty of clients who disqualify attorneys based on Facebook accounts. Ergo, it’s bad business practice.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
How many is...
“plenty of” clients, anyway? How many clients, exactly, are we talking about that disqualify attorneys based on Facebook accounts?
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
I'm not their bookkeeper
But I know it’s greater than the 2 or 3 having it might bring in, according to you.
And I’m not speaking for any attorney or business except one that I’m familiar with. You’re doing the same thing. It doesn’t make either of us “right” except by validating our own experiences.
Well, how many...
specifically?
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
I've heard my uncle talk about it
More than 3 times.
Why you’re fishing for a specific number, I don’t know. It doesn’t do anything to bolster any claim you’ve made.
How many more than 3 times?
5? 15? 20?
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Stupid.
I don’t work for my family.
I see your bit here, but it’s really pathetic and, I’ve got to say, you’re really coming off like a shithead in this thread.
So, I’ll just let you squirm on the line.
So...
it’s more than 3, but how many you won’t say. Which doesn’t really lead me to believe that Facebook is poor for networking purposes on a professional level.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
I'm also interested...
in how you frequently speak for others when you get into a discussion like this. “You really look like a shithead in this thread,” etc. You seem to value how others see you very highly, which seems in contrast to your iconoclast, I’ll argue with everyone bit.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
I'm speaking
For myself. You’re coming off as a shithead. My guess is it’s because you are a shithead, but I won’t jump to that conclusion.
In any case, my suggestion is to heed your own unsolicited advice: stop arguing for argument’s sake.

"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."

You're not
Very funny. Sorry, I’m sure everybody’s always told you otherwise, but when you’ve got all day to write a retort, and that’s the best you’ve got…well…stick to the day job. Whatever that is.

The thing I love
Is that you’re clearly more immature than me, but you never fail to dole out those life lesson nuggets.
You’re the older brother nobody wants, and that’s endearing in a way.
You’re OK in my book, ben.
I'm okay in your book?!
Will you be my myspace friend, then?
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
i don't get this
you asked him for his opinion, he gave you his opinion. where does he force his belief on you?
Rare Gnats Sex
well
I know you think you’re always right, but at least consider that intelligent people can disagree with you
I don’t see where he denies that.
Rare Gnats Sex
or even where he supports having a facebook account
he’s just giving a reason for having it
Rare Gnats Sex
my point
i don’t get the statement you quoted.
larger point: you seem to be picking a fight where the other person didn’t want to argue with you in the first place.
Rare Gnats Sex
I don't see how you
Can claim that, particularly since I asked an open-ended question to nobody in particular and ben was the first to respond. I countered his argument with one of my own.
and he did the same
and the back and forth was fine – just trying to figure out why you went with that line, which changes it from a cordial conversation to a fight (as evidenced by everything said after that)
Rare Gnats Sex
My last
Appeasement of you:
Look what I was responding to. That sarcasm wasn’t a calm, rationale argument. He was clearly attempting to undercut any opinion I had on the matter.
Hope that satisfies you.
Here's...
what you were responding to…
” The only people…
that would associate with Adam through Facebook would have Facebook accounts of their own. So why would they not refer Adam business because they thought Facebook was unprofessional?”
Sarcasm, not a calm, rational argument?
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
OK ben
If that’s what you think I was referring to, good for you.
I’ll try to be less argumentative and hope anybody else reading this understands what I meant.

ElectricOkra.com
Well
My family’s clients search specifically for Facebook and Myspace accounts when determining who they’ll go to, because they feel that’s an indicator of bad judgment.
This is an issue I’m fairly familiar with. I’ve written on the issue of social networking sites and the info contained on there being used in divorce litigation, and thus researched on how third parties will investigate people on there.
It appears that it is a fairly widespread practice for employers to do Google searches on potential employees, and to look them up on MySpace and Facebook. I’d be surprised if there weren’t clients, or potential clients, of mine that haven’t looked to see if I have a profile on MySpace or Facebook.
However, the general practice seems to be that folks want to see if you are putting information on your profile that is unseemly, in poor taste, or generally unprofessional. I do not believe that there are many, if any, people out there who downgrade someone simply for having a profile there.
It is a simple and straightforward way for me to help connect with a lot of folks from high school, college and law school, along with folks I know from other walks of life. To suggest that it is a sign of “bad judgment” to have a Facebook account suggests that one is a little out of touch.
by Adam J. Morris on Jul 2, 2008 8:28 PM CDT up reply actions
No, it doesn't.
It suggests that someone disagrees with your view on the matter.
Your experience is one thing, and mine or anybody else’s is something else. I’m not sure why you just assume you’re more correct.
Shut up, Adam.
Brett’s uncle told him that more than 3 people have disqualified attorneys because of Facebook. Your years of legal experience, plus presenting CLE’s about social networking sites, is irrelevant.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
If that's the logic
Then your opinion doesn’t count either.

I worked in the legal field...
for 7 years. If we’re arguing from authority, that gives me about 7 years more than you.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Well..
My uncle has been an attorney for 25 years.
Why is his opinion and experience less relevant than yours or Adam’s?
Because he's
probably behind the curve when it comes to online issues, in general.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Hahaha
That’s your best argument?
A half-witted, baseless assumption?
Tell me—what else do you know about my uncle?
Even Adam must be cringing with this line of logic.
I'm curious
What does he do, what is his opinion of online activity and social networking sites, and what does he base that on?
by Adam J. Morris on Jul 2, 2008 8:49 PM CDT up reply actions
Family law
Haven’t the slightest clue about the other questions. I don’t think you read what I said.
“What does he base that on?”
I’m not sure what “that” is referring to. He never said, and I never claimed he said, that Facebook was unprofessional or anything else. Just reporting what clients told him. The context was that they were relieved he didn’t have it, which is why, I’m assuming, they told him.
Takes no qualifications to report that.
If he's instilled in you...
these thoughts about social networking sites, I feel pretty safe with that assumption.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
This whole thing...
is amusing to me, in light of the fact that it was your facebook and myspace profiles that got you caught trying to inflate your resume.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Hey, make sure...
you tell him about which year you’re in in law school, and where you worked on Capitol Hill, so that he can suitably impressed!
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
huh
Aren’t you an under-22 year old?
"You’re the only here who contributes schtick only." - brettgardner
From what I could find on...
Facebook demographics, about 14% of their users are 25-34.
http://www.istrategylabs.com/facebook-demographics-direct-from-their-system/
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
That's the demo...
that Adam went to lawschool with. Those are the people he would want to network with.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
I do understand.
14% is still a significant percentage. By that rationale, we shouldn’t watch baseball because 90% of the people who play the sport are under 18.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
I should add...
though, that I have more legal experience than you do, participating in the day-to-day running of a law practice.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Okay.
You’re going to have a great career in the legal profession. Being an asshole is a great source of referrals.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
Well...
you seem to take great pride in your “argumentation.” Other attorneys don’t want to work with people who feel they have to argue with everyone, all the time. It’s a beating, and those attorneys tend to have poorer reputations.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."

No
On this site LSJ is Baseball Jesus.
He earned his nickname through months and months of telling everyone what they really thought about issues. I once tried to tell Baseball Jesus that I liked Ian Kinsler, and he told me that, No, he was sorry but I hated Ian Kinsler. When I told him I think I know who I hate/don’t hate, he just laughed and told me that obviously I didn’t.
So, yah. He earned it.
All you did was type the name into the text box.
The 40 Trumps All!!!
Yep, Basball Jesus is taken
Unless you want to put together some sort of smackoff, where you and LSJAKABBJ do battle in an epic attempt to out-Jesusify each other, that moniker is taken, anonymous new guy.
How about we all address you as anonymous new guy until you come up with a new handle? All those in favor say aye.
Don't knock masturbation, it's sex with someone I love .
Aye

Sorry I am pretty new to the board. I just thought I was ripping off Mike Rhyner’s nickname.
by Baseball Jesus on Jul 1, 2008 10:12 AM CDT up reply actions
Haha That’s okay, I guess… the rest of the board branded me that as a derisive term awhile back, I just got kind of ebraced it, and got used to it.
This should provide some new confusion though, if you’re going to be posting regularly: do people mean LSJ Baseball Jesus, or the Baseball Jesus? Heh…

Alright...
Well, I don’t like you. You know any good jokes? My stand up is struggling and I need all the help I can get…..
You are not Baseball Jesus.
LSJ is baseball jesus. There is nothing more to say. Change your handle.

outsiders perspective
care to try out Baseball Jebus? cause it would save a lot of meaningless thread chatter.
Between this and the ben/brett argument, it really killed the hilarity of this thread. Just saying.
"Why do you need the stereo and the tv on?"
"Cause I like to pawrty."
so what happened to get miles power rankings removed?
and he should most def. put up new ones…

I'm just glad
we could get a quality post like this one to replace it on the rec list.

Was there ever an answer to why Miles' fanpost was deleted?
"Chase Irwin: You pissed me off, I just can't remember why." - Miles.
Z can't handle the truth.
That’d be the story I’m goin with.
"And I stopped beating my wife just a couple of weeks ago." -John McCain
if it's gone, then so be it...
but, don’t be a coward and not give a reason for why it was deleted.
"Chase Irwin: You pissed me off, I just can't remember why." - Miles.

They seen how you roll…
LONGHORN TO COWARDS: I IS HARD, AND IF U DON’T BELEE DAT, GIMME YO PHONE NUMBER AND I’LL CALL YOU UP, AND WE’LL SEE WHO’S REALLY HARD. ON THE CELLIE.
Wut.
p.s., you’re a noob.
Don't knock masturbation, it's sex with someone I love .
The reason is probably self-evident...
for instance, it was probably chock full of douche-baggery and jackassery.

k, i apologize for calling you a coward then.
even though i would still like to know the reason where there’s posts like that all the time.

...i’m expecting gold… and i get brettgardner and ben arguing over who’s dick is smaller…
I garantee
if Sharky wrote that same power rankings thing, it wouldn’t have been deleted.

Why don’t you take a couple of days off, Frito?

Cause he's hilarious
Come on, there’s only so many baseball related discussions to be had on a given day, especially during the dog days of summer.
Let the kiddies play.

For real man...
Miles is funny…. You shouldn’t let him get under your skin.
"Mr. Hicks, you watch, I'm going to be a leader on this team." Kinsler
No one here gets under my skin
I taught HS math for a couple of years out of school, and I heard this sort of stupidity all the time – but only from the least clever kids. There are really funny teenagers and then there are doofuses who are funnny in spite of themselves. miles doesn’t manage to be funny in spite of himself.

Hah no
Oakridge is a pretty nice school though, from what I know.

Well...
It’s better than the ben vs. brett “I’m smarter than you” pissing matches.

I'll bring the hookers.
See ya there, guys!
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
It's a matter of taste I guess
but at least those go slanting off to the side and you just skip on down past them if you want. With miles it’s sprinkled “I should own the Cowboys” “I should coach the Lakers” “I want to nail some girls” “I make it rain” “[some horrible player] is a beast” EVERYWHERE.

You've asked me that before
As I said then, no. But the fact that you refuse to cool it and the fact that a couple of goof balls constantly egg you on does drive me nuts. I can hardly get through a thread without being bombarded by your stupid declarations and those kids cheering them on.

Jeez, Zebra Cakes
I didn’t know it was that big a deal.
I always felt like the OT stuff enhanced the LSB experience. It lets you get to know the other posters a little, therefor making it more fun to discuss baseball issues with them. It’s not just anonymous internet conversation anymore, you know?
Personally I much prefer Miles’ shtick to Sharky’s or HurlerHurley’s or Josey’s or theAhmad’s.
