I meant the film maker

dude even interviewed his mom. There’s a lot of interesting stuff written about the IVerson case. A lot better than the documentary.

Straight Outta LA was the same way, Ice Cube was good as a voice, but I find that the best documentary narrators do not involve themselves.

Steel Home- you asked what I meant by "process."

You have to grade JD’s actions at the time he made them, not after. JD can’t control how the players play after he trades for them or trades them away, so you grade the thought process that brought about the trade.

Take the Lee trade as an example. JD knew we needed an ace to go to for Game 1 of a playoff series and Lee was the best on the market. So he traded a prospect he knew Seattle loved along with three other prospects (only one of whom will probably be worth much, if anything) and went all-in.

How Lee does after the trade is irrelevant to the grading of the trade itself as it relates to JD. He doesn’t play the games.

I agree

I just mean that as of right now, they haven’t worked out.

It wouldn’t suprise me if Lee dominated in the playoffs, and that is the main reason we got him.

(3-8) just shows how he hasnt really improved our team record, now he has pitched good games where we have lossed, but still for the rangers his ERA is now around 4.50

And lee needs some rest right now, either put him on the DL, or just sit him out for a couple of starts

But my fucking Financial Aid and scholarship is being withheld while they investigate a semester THREE YEARS AGO that I had to leave early because of medical reasons, so I have to spend all my money on school for now.

Ouch.

I actually had to withdraw this semester after I didn’t get as much financial aid as I expected and had other financial troubles. It cost me a semester of school and a job at the Abilene Reporter-News.

The most annoying part is I went through the entire medical withdrawal process.

It’s not like I just left. It was the only semester I ever failed to complete in three years, and it was THREE FUCKING YEARS AGO!

So here I am promised 10,000 dollars so I go back to school, and on the Friday before the first semester, I’m told “oh, wait, we have to investigate this before you can have the money we promised you.”
