mike adams since 2009 - in 137 innings
2nd lowest FIP of any pitcher (first has 37 total innings) at 2.26
8th lowest xFIP of any pitcher at 2.90 — first is uehara at 2.49

Where did I say he was a bad pitcher?
I said he’s been hanging some pitches lately. And it’s true. Four XBH’s allowed in 8.1 innings since coming over, and a LD rate of 25%. A 5.53 FIP to boot.
But it’s 8.1 innings. I realize this.
Don't poke the alien.
its a fucking tiny sample size
TINY
career LD% is 16.9
last 3 years (including partial w/ SD this year) – 13.6, 15.8, 20.1
career HR/FB%:
7.1%
as a ranger: 22%
like THAT is going ot stay the same.
career BABIP:
.250
BABIP as a ranger: .308

you are looking at 8 motherfucking innings

You're reading far too much into this.
Making some bad pitches and having them whacked has been the theme for Adams lately.
That doesn’t mean I think he sucks, or I regret trading for him or something.
Don't poke the alien.
LSJ is not overreacting. But I will.
I don’t give a shit what Mike Adams has done before he was a Ranger.
All he has done for the Rangers is blow games and dick.

That's good
Lets get it out of his system now so when we’re in the playoffs, he’ll be unstoppable.

But his track record is as good as it gets, and his skills are repeatable.

Hey SLC, have you ever played the Europa Universalis series on the PC?
I will be playing EU3 extensively this weekend.
I haven't...
what type of game is it, or what’s it about?
"The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance."-Socrates
It's a real time strategy game based on real history.
EU3 starts in 1399 and runs through the mid 1800’s. You can play as any of the 200+ countries around the world, but the European ones have a decided technological advantage. Although it is real time, you don’t have to go around collecting resources. You just collect taxes based on how many provinces your country controls. It combines warfare, diplomacy, and investing in technology. Once you reach a high enough technology level, you can send explorers to discover and colonize the New World. This is the third Europa Universalis game that I have played, and I have absolutely loved all three. I have to warn you though; it is a huge time suck. I just found out about EU3 a few months ago, and I have already spent well over 100 hours playing it.
Is it new?

It's actually a few years old.
Which is good because you can get the “complete” edition on Amazon for under $10.
Europa Universalis III: Complete
There are 2 more expansions after this “complete” edition, and I would recommend getting the “Heir to the Throne” expansion, but not the “Devine Wind” one.
I love it, but it is super addicting.
“I will let one more month of gametime pass, then I will stop.” Nope.
I may have to check it out...
I’m used to the addictive games, after all, my weekend was going to be spent wasting away at Civ V.
"The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance."-Socrates
It's a great game for us history buffs.
You can either play with historical leaders and historical “lucky” countries, or you can play with random ones so that history turns out completely different. I am currently playing as Brandenburg. I am emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, and I am trying to unite Germany early.
can you compare it to the civ games?

It has been a few years since I played Civ III.
But from what I remember, warfare, colonization, and technology investing is similar. The big difference is that you are playing with the actual planet Earth with the countries as they were in 1399, and EU3 is heavily into historical detail.
Nice, I think I'll check it out...
is it available on steam?

Random hypothetical I'll pose to everyone:
let’s imagine a situation where Vick for some reason signs with the Cowboys upon getting out of prison and does his third QB enough for Jerry to be a muppet and release Kitna at the end of 2009 because he likes Vick. Then 2010 comes, everything happens as it does, and Romo gets hurt against the Giants. Vick then comes in and despite Wade’s badness, does super pears on the league like he actually did with the Eagles, and gets the Cowboys into the playoffs, where they lose in the wildcard round.
In this hypothetical, how would you handle the QB controversy?

I don't know that it is shady
He wanted Vick’s public rehabilitation to succeed, and discussed the options. He suggested a backup role for a team in a large urban area with a outsize african-american population. It just sounds to me like trying to ensure Vick is in a position where he can succeed.

Forced, influenced, doesn't really matter to me.
The commissioner doesn’t need to be interjecting himself into free agent negotiations.
Vick was suspended and reinstated by the commissioner

Congrats on your anniversary.
My wife of 8 years likes baseball, but she hates football. With a passion.
My wife's first love might still be soccer
but the first football game she ever saw was the Pats-Steelers 2002 AFCCG. She started following the Pats because I did, and it all went from there. She gets more excited and upset about individual games than I ever could. She was also a “Yankees fan” who had never watched any games, but put it on that they were the only team she’d heard of in Argentina. That has, of course, changed since then.

you'd be surprised how many applicants get bounced on the ol' "I'll lie about it...they'll never find out"

You're skipping a few steps.

2.) let them shower with you and get all nekkid and shit bc they know you won’t try anything
3.) Wait til they try to “convert” you
4.) Use penis
5.) Conduct seminars and PROFIT

"...out of the shadows of unprecedented success, the sun shines down upon this team waiting to thrill anew." - ghostofErikThompson
this brings up an interesting point
how often do you see naked women? There’s this massive perception out there that women who have gay friends are like “It’s OK to change in front of him because he’s gay and he won’t care.” does this actually happen? Also, how many women have set out to turn you straight? If these are real things, it seems like faking gay would be a great way to get tons of pussy.

I've been around women undressing when I was modeling...(other models)

HA!
I had a computer my freshman year of college. It had a 256MB hard drive.
Of course, I think that was more a function of my being poor than anything else.

They need to make the education system a competitive business
with certain oversight of course, but it should be generating revenue for the state and be competing to have better, brighter students. If we just pour money into it, it does no one any good.

Why should it be generating revenue for the state?
Do you work for a bank? “Hey, it’s great that college kids these days all owe us a ton of money, let’s make that apply to primary school too!”
No, I wait tables for a living.
Look, I’m not against providing an education for those that can’t afford one to an extent, but schools have to start getting better at how they educate students. Creating a competitive environment and making parents decide where to send their kids is the best solution I can find right now.

I haven't seen particularly good results from the for-profit college business.
Nor does there seem to be any lack of competition in the not-for-profit college world.
At the very least, I wouldn't mind looking more into school vouchers, especially for families that otherwise couldn't afford a private school education.
I’m no expert on public schools and the economics behind it, so I’m open to all critiques.
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
Likewise
we shouldn’t turn education into an idol because it’s education. It’s still a service being provided, not an entitlement. So, do the best to provide it in the best possible manner while making it worthwhile to provide it.

Well I'm not sure the opposite end of the spectrum is working too well at the moment.
We see more federal regulations levied against states by the Dept. of Education, and kids are spending more and more time learning how to pass a horribly dumbed down standardized test, so their school qualifies for funding, instead of getting a truly enriching curriculum.
If nothing else, the day I have a kid (if I ever do), I’m beginning the saving up to send them to private school. I made it in spite of the high school education I received, but I don’t want to subject my kid to that if I can help it.
Schools need to make the curriculum challenging and stimulating. Largely, my public school education was not that, whatsoever. I know it varies from school district to school district, but I have a huge issue with standardized testing strong arming schools and putting learning worthwhile concepts and skills on the back burner.
I couldn’t imagine living in Dallas and dealing with the horribly corrupt DISD on a daily basis.
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
My perspective is skewed because the best thing I ever did for my education was get out of private school,
after going to a school which simply couldn’t afford to offer as varied or in-depth a curriculum.
But even private schools aren’t generating revenue for the state. That is the part that sounds truly preposterous to me. Any revenue generated for the state is an unnecessary cost put on the backs of the parents as far as educating the kids is concerned.
I'd be interested to see college dropout rates for public versus private.
Also to add in factors like public kids who took all AP/Honors, all regular, or mixed (me!). Just to see how much of a difference there is.
I can safely say that the AP classes I took in 2 years of HS were the most rewarding ones and helped prepare me for college better than any others (duh).
The regular class high school curriculum, for the most part, is a joke.
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
Right, good point. Forgot about that.
Man I wish I took those.
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
AP classes weren't available at my high school
Therefore, my freshman year of college was basically spent learning how to take notes and study for tests — things I’d never had to do before. It was a rough learning curve.

Here's one thing that would make that tricky:
private schools can kick kids out much more easily than public. I was friends with people who graduated from public HS after just one or two years there because the private school said “screw it, we give up on you.”
Are you talking about public/private high schools now?
I’m confused.

All primary schooling in this subthread.
Eric Prince wants to go from the current model of public schools + non-profit private schools to a full-blown for-profit, revenue-raising system.
Let's bring this discussion to OT 2.

I’m not sure how I feel about that. I understand the need for revenue, but I know too many families who probably couldn’t afford schooling for their kids in that case.

until highschool I was homeschooled.
In the event that I am one day lucky enough to have a child, I will be homeschooling. It’s expensive as all get out, but worth every penny. I was in algebra 2 by the time I was 13. When I went to HS, they only let me test out of Algebra 1. So I had to repeat geometry and algebra 2, essentially setting me back 2 years in mathematics.
Federal regulations and state wide standardized tests are not doing us much good. Nor is having a summer break as long as we have, but that’s a different point all together.

As for what competition I'm seeing from the non-profit college business...
see the entire below discussion about advertising, and the insane amount of campus upgrades and construction going on at just about any college (and here is where the discussion could diverge into Ben’s favorite bubble topic, but I digress). Or see any of the myriad of “best college” rankings that are somehow lacking in for-profit schools.
It’s a pretty cutthroat business.
I would have a real problem
if the college I was attending spent my tuition dollars on advertising. I want that money to go toward campus enhancements, retaining good professors and life-changing opportunities.
Although I’m kind of biased since I attended and work for a not-for-profit university.

sherman isnt horrible
but 42k is a joke.
i will not give that school a penny at 42k. i would rather support my grad school program at that rate. 42k! you cut 3 programs that made us different (well, cut 1 and drastically changed 2 others)
including the program that was the most important to me.
42k is a joke. i have already told one person whose daughter is considering SMU, AC, Trinity, etc that at 42k they should not even consider or visit AC a second time.

That hardly makes a difference, though.
They can shuffle money around on their balance sheet however they feel like it, but it’s still money they take in being spent on advertising. Why does it matter to you whether it comes from tuition, donations, or parking tickets?

Advertising may mean more students
More students = more tuition.
More tuition = more money to spend on “campus enhancements, retaining good professors and life-changing opportunities.”
not just more students,
but sometimes better students.

As a senior, after I took the exit exam as a junior mind you, we STILL had to have test prep days in one of my classes.
Even as a dumbass high school student, I knew this was a joke of a test.
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
I remember finishing the social studies section in about 45 minutes.
Got exemplary or whatever on it too. The section that took longest was English mainly because almost everything had to be a short answer; still finished before lunch though.

OK, plunger talk
How do you hide the plunger in your bathroom? It never looks quite clean, and leaving it in the garage kind of leaves your guests up shit creek (heh) if they need it.

I was with my gf at her aunt & uncle’s in Tulsa, they love going out for breakfast. I’m not a big breakfast person since I don’t really like eggs, which is like 95% of what diners do. I decide to get a cinnamon roll, because I was like “well hey, that’s a pretty tasty thing that I like, and I’m not that hungry so one should be fine.” Their idea of a cinnamon roll was a loaf of cinnamon bread as big as my face drowned in melted icing. It was not a cinnamon roll at all.

She is a textbook xenophobic Russian. When I showed her the stories about Russia leading the world in HIV & heroin addiction, she didn’t believe it. Then she said it was most likely the Tatars (Muslim/Mongol/Russian mixes) who were inflating it.

Well we don't really know what the code is supposed to do, so it might be a legitimate bug, but my point
was more to say that when things like this come out, it usually tkaes them a few tries to get all the features that people have come to expect.

Thought some of you may enjoy this...
Thursday’s (Aug. 18) Texas Rangers-Los Angeles Angels game produced the Rangers’ highest-rated telecast of the season on FOX Sports Southwest, according to Nielsen Media Research.
The late-night game, which ended shortly after midnight CT, averaged a 6.4 household rating in Dallas-Fort Worth, surpassing the team’s previous season best 6.0 rating on July 24 vs. the Toronto Blue Jays. It also was the best rating for a Rangers game on FOX Sports Southwest since a 6.6 on Aug. 31 2010 against the Kansas City Royals.
An average of 166,300 homes in Dallas-Fort Worth watched Thursday’s game. The telecast received its largest audience from 10:30-10:45 p.m. CT when it averaged a 7.2 rating and 186,500 homes.
It also was the most-watched program in the market from 9:45 p.m.-midnight CT, and finished as the second highest-rated program of the day behind the Philadelphia Eagles-Pittsburgh Steelers NFL preseason game, which averaged an 8.2 rating on KDFW FOX 4. The Rangers-Angels game out-rated the Eagles-Steelers NFL game in three of the five quarters when they went head-to-head from 9:00-10:15 p.m.
Oh great.
So now, we’ll have even more people yelling about how Mike Adams sucks and JD bungled another trade.
