So a bunch of LSBers are meeting at angrydome island apparently saturday night?

Saturday’s game is a day game…

I'm assuming that I take the cash option and end up with about 40-50 mil after taxes.

First, pay off all debt and buy some really fancy paper to print my 2 weeks notice on.

Second, buy second home somewhere cool (temperature-wise), like Colorado.

Third, buy a comic book/gaming shop.

Fourth, become Comic Shop Guy.

I don't like that Ford has mocked us two draft-and-stash Euros.

I want to say it seems lazy, but we have done it quite a bit.

But if Honeycutt and JaJuan Johnson are both there, I’ll be pretty mad if we go Mirotic or Bertans.

He's several notches below Honeycutt for me.

I don’t like reading that he makes dumb plays. Still, somebody today compared him to Tyrus Thomas, and that would be delicious.

Where'd you read he made dumb plays?

I haven’t heard that about him… of course the press here is going to be super positive on him, as he was easily our best player last year.

The first thing that popped up in my mind

Is that Ford said his basketball IQ seems to be an issue.

by brettgardner on Jun 21, 2011 2:20 PM CDT up reply actions  

I could see it

He’s probably not the savviest guy, but I didn’t notice any glaring issues either. Of course, I don’t claim to know basketball all that well either. He’s got some offensive skills, and can block shots though. I’d prefer to see the Mavs get somebody a little bigger (he’s tall but skinny), but they could definitely do a lot worse.

by colonialbob on Jun 21, 2011 2:31 PM CDT up reply actions  

from my perspective, given the pretty thin crop for this draft

its apparent that more than likely, whoever we draft is going to be somewhat of a work in progress. Like you, i dont want another draft and stash euro. Sure, there are guys ahead of jajuan i would like a honeycut or a morris.

but jujuan seems like a pretty level headed kid who has a serious knack for scoring in many different ways, and would be a great addition to an already pretty youthful bench.

There is this crazy girl who I went out with once months and months ago.

And she texts me out of the blue quite frequently, and I really don’t ever respond. Mostly because her texts are huge red flags. For example – last night she sent me all these texts in the span of 15 minutes, and I didn’t see the first one until she had sent the third one:

1. Hi
2. Why do u hate me so much?
3. Why can’t we just be friends?
4. Sorry for bothering you.

Can you imagine if you were actually dating this chick? She’d flip out if you didn’t immediately answer every text. She is crazy….

No, we went out for drinks once and sent her on her way after.

I guess I should clarify that some of the texts she sends me are photos of herself naked. This has been going on for like 4 months now….very rarely are they naked photos, but not complaining about that part.

I was always jealous of the guys who hit HR’s, but once I found my niche- smack the ball towards the outfield gaps, and run as hard as I could- it didn’t bother me so much.

Since most softball outfielders can’t throw for shit, I’d usually get a double or triple if I hit the ball correctly.

I don't know, here's a quick rundown of the rules

Spread a deck of cards face down on a table (or the floor like we did when we were young…ha). Each player takes turn pulling a card.
1-5 = Person who draws takes that many drinks
6-10 = Person who draws delegates drinks to other players (can be all to one or some to all)
J = I Never: Person who draws says something they’ve never done, and if others in the circle have done it, they drink.
Q = Questions: Players must carry on a conversation composed solely of questions until someone messes up. That person drinks and you move on.
K = Categories: Choose a topic (MLB teams, names, etc.) and go around the circle naming things in this category in alphabetical order. The person who messes up or blanks drinks and you move on.
A = Rule: The person who draws this card gets to make a rule for the rest of the game. For example, you might drink everytime someone says “the” or one guy I know made us play the rest of the game sans shirt.

Ah, here they are, per Wikipedia
Ace “Waterfall” To perform a “Waterfall”, each player starts drinking their beverage, depending on the direction of the game (whether you are picking cards clockwise or counterclockwise). No player can stop drinking until the player before them stops drinking.
2 “You” The player who drew the card assigns someone to take a drink.
3 “Me” The player who drew the card takes a drink.
4 “Whores” All participating women must drink
5 “Jive” Play the hand jive game until someone messes up, that person has to drink.
6 “Dicks” All participating guys must drink.
7 “Heaven” All players must point toward the sky. The last player to point must drink.
8 “Date/Mate” Pick a person to drink with you for the rest of the game.
9 “Rhyme” The player who drew the 9 says a phrase, then the players go around in the circle saying phrases that rhyme with the original. No phrase may be said twice, the first player who can not come up with a phrase, or says a phrase that doesn’t rhyme must drink.
10 “Categories” The player who drew the jack picks a category such as “sports teams” or “bands from the ’90s,” the players then go around in the circle saying items from that category, the first player who can not think of an item or says something not in the category (or if all items have been exhausted) must drink.
Jack “Make a Rule” Create a rule that all the players must obey until the end of the game. Example rules include, “If you touch your face, take a drink” or “If you swear, take a drink,” etc.
Queen “Question Master” Whoever draws this card becomes the “Question Master”. Whenever they ask you a question, you are not allowed to answer them. You can still talk to them as long as you’re not answering a question they asked you. If tricked into answering a “Question Master” you must take one drink. This person is the “Question Master” until someone else draws a queen.
King “cup rule” cup rule
joker “remove” remove a piece of clothing. no socks, shoes, hats, accesories. Only tops or bottoms -

I’ve never played the Joker rule…

I'm really bad at explaining shit so hopefully this make sense.
Played with three or more players, preferably. However, two can play by each playing more than one hand. Deal out all the cards evenly (hence 5 players, 5 even piles). Each player has his her own pile. No looking at your pile.
One person starts by turning their top card over. For example, a 5 of clubs. The next person turns over a 9 of clubs. Therefore the 1st person must drink 5(sips) and the 2nd person must drink 9. Lets say the next person also threw a club (a Jack). Then everyone once again must drink their number (Aces high).

The first two people have now drank twice off of their one card. Hence the name connection…, if any card around the table is CONNECTED (not across) to the card next to them by suit or number, then they must drink their number. Very simple game, 2 rounds will cause even the best of drinkers to feel something.

First time I played it, I ended up drinking 3 beers within the first 15 minutes; I think we played for at least an hour that night.

I don't like C++ cause the std::vector type "template library" stuff has a tendency to give you really really really annoying and long compiler errors when it screws up.

And then I’m saying: most statements are really short and fit on one line, like

x=5
x = x + 3

Every once in a while you’ll have a long one where you want to split it onto multiple lines to make it easier to read.

But since the former case happens more often than the latter case, I like languages where by default it uses endline as “end statement” and you have to use a \ or something to continue a statement across lines.

Holy shit, dude

If you don’t end up agreeing with me, I am going to be forced to assume you are either a headstrong or just dense.

That is exactly what it says. It describes each sample. Then next to each question, in parenthesis, it says which sample they asked the question. For the question we are concerned with, it says:

Prevalence of Online Dating as a way of Meeting People Among Singles (General Study:
N=2525)

General Study. General study =

General Survey: 2525 US adults age 18+ with incomes > $ 30,000

No qualification about whether they had previously online dated, unlike the previous sample.

However, since general study includes single people, and the question makes no sense for single people, the question was further restricted to “recently commited relationships.” I know that because the column heading says:

Recently in
Committed

The questions in Table 5 and Table 6

were only asked of the General Study Group, which is the last group, which consisted of 1500 single people and 1025 newly commited relationship people who earn over 30K but have not necessarily online dated in the past.

It’s not being applied to the other groups. Forget the other groups. Think of this as 6 independent questions with six independent samples.

by ab03 on Jun 21, 2011 3:23 PM CDT up reply actions  

Oh I think I see.

It’s ignoring the other 10k sampled people because they were questioned for something else, so they took the 2525 people as just a random sampling of the population, so that’s where they got the 1 in 5?

by FuturePants on Jun 21, 2011 3:24 PM CDT up reply actions  

Yes

If you used all three samples, then you would have a disproportionate representation of married people and online daters. The last sample is their best approximation of the general population, minus people in poverty.

On the rare occasion I go to a bar

I have a hard enough time sending winks and messages online. Digital rejection is bad enough. Face-to-face would be worse.

Well, one of them I worked with, but we were actually already close before we got assigned to the same place.

Also, working on a ride is not the same as working in an office, so it wasn’t an issue. If anything, it was a bonus. Nice to see a loved one in the middle of a long day.

My fiancee and I don’t work together, though. We work in the same theme park, but that’s it. Different roles, different areas, different departments.

Most of my college years (and some years while I was out) I worked at a ranch in New Mexico.

It’s a bad description, but for these purposes think of it like summer camp.

Anyway, that’s what it was like. Soap opera. Constant drama. The girls outnumbered the guys, and were all extremely fit, intelligent, friendly, and active. So no guy lasts more than a couple weeks single, but the relationships also come and go rapidly. Plus, they’re all college aged, so there’s a whole lot of emotion flying around. Also the bonus drama of it all ending after three months.

I've had to take a bus for a normal job, and it was unpleasant.

Crowded, inconvenient, a lot more time than it would take me just to drive, and a necessary evil. At times so crowded the damn bus wouldn’t be able to fit everyone waiting and I’d have to sit around until the next bus.

It’s one thing if you have to take the bus, but I don’t blame him at all for not wanting to if he can get out of it.

I'll regret this when it completely goes off subject but I have a question

I’m by no means a beer snob but I do enjoy places that carry tons of random beers. In Pittsburgh there were a few places where I could walk in and mix and match beers of my choosing (most of which I’ve never even heard of) Some I loved, and some I hated but I always enjoyed the experience of drinking things I’ve never had. My question is this… are there any places around like this? (Dallas preferably) I don’t necessarily want to have to drink them in the bar though. I’d much rather get a 6 pack and have it at home

Mine's gotten worse as I've gotten older

And it wasn’t good to begin with, though for about the past 10 years, it’s been pretty much illegible to anyone but me. And sometimes even I have trouble.

If I’m writing something that absolutely has to be legible, like filling out a form or an address on an envelope, I’ll print very slowly and in all-caps, but that’s not feasible in most day-to-day situations.

NBA Draft talk

- Ford’s latest has us taking Mirotic, which I like a lot even though he wouldn’t contribute for 2-3 years.

- Says the best deal that Minny has on the table is Gortat and #13. I don’t really know what to think of Gortat anymore. Seems like it wouldn’t be enough but there is some value at 13 with Valuncieunas or possibly Tristan Thompson. I think I would go ahead and pull the trigger if I were Minny.

I’m just saying the Hawks have won a lot of games playing Smith and Horford next to each. But they had no choice. Horford is a 4 who has had to play 5. Love wouldn’t have to play the 5 nearly as often with Darko there. Williams can play the 3 when matching up with more traditional teams.

CFB is getting dangerously close to the same thing that's plagued international cycling

at first, only a few cyclists were doping, and they smashed everyone. Then more started doing it to keep up, but there were some clean. Now every pro cyclist (more than likely) uses PEDs. They no longer offer any competitive advantage..they just ensure a level playing field.

Soon every single program in CFB will be violating NCAA rules just to continue to exist in D1

I didn't realize that she is only 42

I would have guessed older at this point

you sure? over 1,000 comments in less than 3 hours.

That’s gotta be a record of some sorts. Right?

My (Dodgers fan) friend's reaction to the McCourt nonsense:
I think Orel and Garvey got the money…IMO they have an interest in a winning team again, let alone just saving the franchise.

Orel absolutely DOES NOT have the money.

Garvey

that might be even more ridiculous. At least Orel benefited from some modern salaries

by ab03 on Jun 21, 2011 5:14 PM CDT up reply actions  

If you believe his son

Orel’s ex-wife benefitted a lot more than Orel did.

LOL

I’m sure they’re just sitting on a few hundred million.

Does Garvey even want to own a team or am I supposed to take this as humor?

MOAR OT TOPICS TO BOOT!

New David Feherty talk show starts tonight – Interested? Care less?

Rumors are running around that the Stars will be playing the Coyotes AT RELIANT STADIUM IN HOUSTON for a pre-season game on September 23rd. Think it’s time some of us LSB’ers invade AJM’s hood and raise some hell. Any takers?

Is the Summer turning to shit as far as the hype vs results with the blockbuster movies? Only time I’ve stepped foot in a theatre was for “Bridesmaids”. And I don’t see anything on the horizon that makes me go gah-gah, except “30 Minutes Or Less” and maybe “Bad Teacher” and “Horrible Bosses”.

Silly british sounding golf guy.

He’s the one usually doing banter with Gary McCord.

I'm very interested in the Feherty show.

I’m so in on the Stars in Reliant. Where did you hear this?

Heh

It goes deeper. People take out their frustrations with Josey on their real-life acquaintances, which propagates forward, and before you know it you’ve got more marriages in an easily-smashable state.-Closure GT on 12/14/2010 9:48 AM
