Pro Quality. Fan Perspective.
Around SBN: Interview With UMD Athletic Director, Dr. Debbie Yow

10/11 JD, Work in Progress


I've been working on a Fanpost for about a year now on what Basketball IQ means. I have about a page of text talking about Manu Ginobli and Anderson Varejao, but the essential thesis is that Basketball IQ means never following the rules. I'm not doing it purposefully to make people mad, but I do hope that's an eventual outcome.

Star-divide

On an unrelated note, this is my first Junk Drawer post ever. Most of you will find this mundane, as everyone has had a first JD and they were probably more interesting than this.

 

Post your concept of BBIQ, or don't, or fill out my Beatles poll; I'm writing an article on The Beatles for a conference in November.

How ya feeling 92?

I’m still feeling it, but pretty sure I’m coming out of it. Battling a sore throat and cough and just general malaise. That Nyquil was a life-saver.

I did not say this. I am not here.

Contains a bit too many ingredients for my taste. I usually just take the painkiller (it’s paracetamol in Nyquil’s case, which isn’t the right one for me). The problems will go away on their own after 3-4 days anyway, and if not one has something that requires more than OTC medication.

Arizona scored after completing an insanely long drive. It must’ve been at least 12-14 plays.

Polk returns the pooch kickoff to the 45. Locker gets the ball and starts gunning the ball all over the field. Every pas was perfectly on target, rifled across the field. We’re down 12 and he hits Kavario Middleton (he will be a star, really athletic TE) for a 25 yard score to cap off the scoring drive. 1:20 scoring drive, about three minutes remaining.

Arizona gets the ball with good field position (about the 40) because of bad kick coverage. On their first play from scrimmage, they passed the ball on a very short out pattern. The receiver went down for the ball, but as he hit the ground he lost control and it flew up into the waiting arms of a UW player. INT for TD, UW goes for two and Locker throws one of the most gorgeous fades in the back of the end zone imaginable. UW up by 3.

Arizona gets the ball, advances to the 45 but the QB loses composure and throws a pretty bad INT.

Hey mort, great post.

I could go over there and make another comment but I like it live.
Ok, some say it was long.
Really though, it didn’t seem long. When it flows like that (well written), nothing seems long to me.
Great insight to what all of us are missing.

I liked brp’s write up also, and you two seem to be hitting on similar cords (Blake/Andre comparison, Oden’s condition, etc.) which has me stoked.

Romance me with that Roy rainbow shot which took flight from way beyond the arc and sailed so high that before it came back down to earth sealing the victory, it kissed the rafters and said "You're mine baby."

Thanks 1342

Rereading it I coulda’ done it a lot better, but I can’t let myself try to do a perfect fanpost.

Oden is still raw, but no huffing and puffing. Wonderful news. And once ya see Miller play, i think all but the most ardent/stubborn BOOFs will agree Miller is better.

I could still see Blake starting to add shooting and to keep the best playmakers separate though.

Blazerfan1 posted a photo of Oden yesterday.

OMGosh, his body fat looked to be .00000000001%
He’s either getting in shape or he needs to leave those diet pills alone.
All in all though, Just him being in good conditioning notwithstanding working on his game, is going to bring this team to a new level. Throw in Andre, Batum’s growth, Webster’s unkown, LMA, etc, etc,
There were a few games last year towards the end where the Blazers looked like a Mean Machine. I expect to see that a little earlier this year.

I have to admit that I'm not that into the Beatles

I like some of their songs, but it’s not like they are on heavy rotation in my playlist. I have the White Album on CD and Vinyl (don’t know which edition right now), and I’m sure my mother has a lot more at her home.

It might be because music at some time in the 20th century has made the transition from being driven by melody to being driven by rhythm, and to me the Beatles mostly still belong in the former category. Today we are much more used to the latter. That might be why a number of their songs sound a bit boring to me: The weak baseline.

I honestly never go the total craze around the Beatles. To me they are a very good band, but were never the godlike superstars that I had to know and own everything about. I wouldn’t buy their albums more than Stones albums. I wouldn’t buy Beatles Rockband or an anthology more than an edition for Metallica. Most definitely not.

One of my favorites all around, I like Harrison’s songs the best. Definitely a great bass line.

Even though it is the second most covered Beatles song, I actually am going to counter Tinfoil’s comment below with my opinion that Something sounds better with George than without George, which is almost like saying that the song is done better by the Beatles than anyone else who covered it.

On an unrelated related musical note: Last night I figured out the fascination people have with Lady Gaga

When falling asleep I zapped into MTV Hits (nice channel, just clips, next to no commercials. Like the old MTV) and they played “Love Game” and “Just Dance”.

It’s Christina Aguilera and Kylie Minogue wrapped into one, both in looks and performance. I fear some record label manufactured it to prepare for the time when those decline (likely has started already), since a few years ago her style was very different.

Is Double Teamed the worst basketball movie of all time?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0281905/

It’s based on a true story about two WNBA players, but the minutes I have seen had awful game action full of bad shots, no system, and corny “we are a team” scenes. It’s pretty obvious the actresses didn’t have much to do with basketball until now, although one has a nice release. An opposing coach just got a technical foul with 2 seconds left, and they awarded two free throws for that to the heros. Huh? Is that a girls high school rule?

According to research conducted by Professor Don Easterbrook from Western Washington University last November, the oceans and global temperatures are correlated.

Who knew? The stuff that covers 70-something percent of the surface of the planet – sometimes miles deep – has an influence on temperature? Amazing! It’s not like we didn’t learn about vaporization in elementary school.

I don’t know what an album is because I’m all digital like, but honestly, I’ve never listened to a Beatles CD or tape. I had that 1 CD and heard most their songs, I just don’t know any of them by what album they were in. Pretty much any music I have that was released before 2000, is some sort of greatest hits thing.

Our training staff is gonna choke our players...
“The first three hours, I was bored a little bit,” Batum said. “The last 15 minutes, it was cool. It was the first time I saw another American sport.”

Before the Dodgers scored two runs in the bottom of the ninth inning to secure a 3-2 win, the game was slow enough to put Cunningham to sleep. Literally. The rookie forward ducked into the back of the suite, draped a towel over his face and passed out. Rookie mistake.

Moments later, the towel on Cunningham’s face was gently raised to expose his mouth and team trainer Jay Jensen lodged a tortilla chip in Cunningham’s mouth. Laugher erupted, but the rookie did not wake up. So someone — his identity has not been revealed — removed the chip and replaced it with a jalapeno.

The oozing juice and scorching taste prompted Cunningham to come to.

“It was hot, man,” Cunningham said, laughing. “Jay Jensen decided the chip was funny, but then they figured I would choke on it because I didn’t wake up. So they put a jalapeno in there. I have an idea who it was. I’m not gonna divulge my sources, I’m gonna wait until they fall asleep and get some pay back.”

Stat question

on a crazy end of game play with a bunch of laterals and stuff, do players get credit for rushing yards? like, if a receiver is running, then laterals to an RB and the RB runs for 8 yards before lateraling again, does the RB get credit for 8 rushing yards?

Yeah they do

It’s stats like that that really piss off stat heads. Another thing they will do is say some guy throws for over 300 yards in a win that ends in him taking a knee 3 times, the final stats will say he had -6 yards rushing.

My parents would never fork out the dough for a color TV. We went to my grandparents who had a color TV, and I could never see the difference.

I can’t begin to tell you how lost I was as a child growing up.

It’s a safe bet few have been as lost as me, and that’s the bigger reason for not knowing the Beatles than being into jazz. I didn’t know hardly any jazz musicians either.

A friend of mine asked me to go down town with him. In this record store was huge poster of Jimi Hendrix, I had no idea who he was but the poster was so cool I had to get it. He was in that blue oversized shirt playing at Woodstock.
My dad would always say "is that your brother." Then one day in front of the poster he told me the story of the birds and the bees, so to speak.
He told me that he was not racist but people should marry their own kind. I said, "dad, that’s what racism is."

To be fair my dad is one of the most generous people in the world, and he would break his neck to help anyone, and I mean anyone. We just didn’t see eye to eye on that particular point.

Maybe I'm alone here, but I dislike it when Barack Obama is called "black."

Semantically, Obama is a biracial African-American; he is as equally white as he is black. I’m a stickler for semantics, though.

I agree, BUT

He looks black, and thus was treated as a black man growing up, and appears black. You have to know that he has a white mom to know he is mixed, as he looks sufficiently American-black (who most have a touch of white in them).

“Black” is a catch-all for African-American’s who look black. They’re mostly ALL mixed.

I’d find it stranger if he ended up with straight hair and pale skin.

Toronto sports writers are silly:
Portland is a club on the rise with one of the most talented guards in the game and a highly respected coach on the sidelines. Yet they had trouble spending nearly $10-million in cap space this summer because players and agents seem wary of linking themselves with the club. Surely part of it is the aftermath of the Miles fiasco, but GM Kevin Pritchard has begun to get himself a reputation as an arrogant malcontent who sees himself as bigger than his club and his club as better than the league.

one guy started Moss, Ochosinco, and Crotchery(?)

The other started Ochosinco and Calvin Johnson. Used Bradshaw and Cadilac Williams in the two flex spots…

Starting Crotchery was clearly a mistake for him, it probably would have locked up a W…

It was out of place

But it coincided in a time of Schultz’s life where he was, indeed, abducting and murdering little red head girls, so it had a autobiographical slant to it that Peanuts’ afficianados enjoy.

I will agree, the gravitas of that particular story line was off the charts, and the biographical touch lent it a sense of urgency and authenticity, but ultimately I found Snoopy’s pantomimes tasteless.

The cathartic potential for Peanuts was practically unlimited, especially during Charlie’s frequent bouts of rage. In a time where children were rarely medicated for systematic violent outbreaks, Schultz was very much ahead of the curve. It was always compelling to observe the hermeneutic complexity as Charlie towed the line between sanity and pure animal carnage.

Dad: “What are you watching, Mafalda?”

A guy that I work with has been buying this underwear at REI that you supposedly don't need to change or wash for 2 weeks.

I think they are Japanese, I remember some story about a Japanese astronaut testing them on a shuttle flight. Still even if that’s possible, the whole idea totally grosses me out. I like wearing clean underwear, I could see it being handy on a really long hike or on a trip to a very primitive locale but other than that just change your shorts man. Also they are $25 a piece!
