Junk Drawer 8/29/2009

PrintAs NBA fans, we tend to categorize guys as overrated and underrated regarding the credit they receive as basketball players. With that noted, I'm curious as to who y'all consider to be overrated and underrated posters at Blazersedge.
Personally, I think that I'm rated just fine by most people. Most of y'all have found me to be an obnoxiously brash, yet fairly intelligent poster who makes a fair amount of sound points -- while occasionally being wrong at times, though -- which means that I'm an overall above average, albeit not outstanding poster.
At any rate, here are my nominations for overrated and underrated posters.
Overrated: BlazerFan1 & tominhawaii.
Underrated: BlazerFanSince1970 & two4larue.
On a side note, my favorite posters are Magnum, Mortimer, Norsktroll, & jksnake99.
I have countless other favorites, too, although those four rank at the very top of my list.

the problem with this topic
is that nobody is truly “rated”.
one would have to go through and compile a list of BEdge “superstars”, vet role players, rookies, horrible contracts, etc. etc. to find out where people are “rated” by the community.
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
we could kinda base it on posts and comments
then have complicated formulas

I've said it before and I'll say it again
PoliSam and Storyteller are off the charts in terms of posting effeciency. You don’t always notice them because they have low “usage” but everytime they are involved in the offense, good things happen.

While they have low usage, people still justifiably respect them; thus, they're not underrated posters.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
Yeah, that's why I put BlazerFanSince1970 and two4larue as my most underrated posters.
They post a ton of smart comments, but don’t get much respect from the community as a whole.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
you're the type of person who would definitely notice the underappreciated among us

Overrated: Fatty and jscot
Fatty explanation: When I first joined BE, Fatty had just banned himself for a year. During the break, he was a legend. Fatty was the greatest! He is a hero! A martyr! A man of his word.
When he finally came back, he slinked into a random junk drawer. Wah wah.
Jscot explanation: He’s been saying he’s FROTW for years now. When is going to be the actual ROW? Seriously.
Underrated: LaMarvelous and BlueBooYay
Explanation: Prolific game day heros that sometimes get forgotten about during the doldrums of the offseason.
On a side note, my favorite posters are: junk drawer regulars.
Seriously, people who don’t junk are like people who go to a theme park and skip out on the fastest roller coaster. Lame.
how can you mention LaMarvelous without including a grossly excessive number of exclamation points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I definitely gotta agree about fatty
I, too, came after fatty’s self ban and I would consistently hear about his greatness. Well, a few people disagreed, but the majority seemed to be pro-fatty. I bought into the hype machine; let’s face it that’s what many Blazer fans do. Let’s just say I was rather underwhelmed when I saw him in action.
I also agree about the junk drawer regulars.
"It’s a good ol’ fashioned Rip City beat down!"
I guess I didn't remember people saying he was great
His rep definitely went up after he left, because he stuck to his word and he’s easier to love when not confronted with it all, but that’s funny he got so built up.
He’s just fatty. But, he became a celebrity because of his unique style and he WOULD be right about stuff. But… he’s fatty.
Cuz he gets up in your grill, phoo!!!
Just his bad spelling, weird typing style, the way he’d focus on certain players or management, and how mood swings.
Plus, it was different when this place was a lot smaller.
I got sick of the
Fan BoYz this, and FaN BoyeSS that stuff. and real ballerz this and tru ballers that.

He's always got a thing he says over and over
Back in the day, it was Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, for Nash and Patterson.
And he hated Martell and Travis.
I think trk, poster and howlingfantods are underrated BEdgers
trk has a great handle on the various advanced stats, as does poster. howlingfantods does as well, plus he provides a needed distinct prospective from the majority of BEdgers, as his posts often make me look like a huge homer.
Yeah, howlingfantods makes us look like we regularly fellate LaMarcus Aldridge.
That aside, I agree with you that those folks go unjust unnoticed for being non-homers.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
Agree completely.
Nothing wrong with blind, unabashed enthusiasm for the home team. But sometimes it’s healthy to sit back and recognize the occasional wart.
Yes! Yes! In the face!
howlingtod takes it too far sometimes
sometimes he is spot on and yet I still feel like popping him in the face
I used to dig him
But Howling is often always flat out wrong, and loves to do the tired “YOU HOMERS DONT GET IT LEMME TELL YOU HOW IT REALLY IS”.
Trk and Poster are great though.

i know because I met one in a california nightclub. i asked if she was single and she said “for the night I am because my man is home cleaning up after our doggie who has a huge butt sore”
I don’t know who I felt worse for in that moment, the dog or the guy who has to live with that lawyer.

Want to read a dumb story?
I got nowhere else I can complain about this because the internet tubes would rat me out.
We have a friend that my wife knew from Portland that is going to college at UH who dogsits for us. She is an airhead. I think that’s the nicest way to classify her. She housesat while we were in Portland and is staying with us until tomorrow, because she sublet her normal room until then, while she spent her summer on Maui.
She took my wife’s car today to start moving into her place and called me around 8:00 PM and told me I was going to be really mad at her. She parked in some sort of school zone and got the car towed.
She didn’t know what to do and was scared to talk to the police so I called to find the car. The cop lady asked what time the car was parked there and housesitter said, “Just from 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM.” After I got off the phone I asked her if she had been looking for the car since 3:00 PM and she said no because she was studying and went to dinner at 7:00 PM.
The towing fee was $160.00 and she got a $50.00 ticket. When we got home from getting the car, she did the dishes and went to bed. She’s avoiding me like I used to avoid my parents after I got in trouble. I’m trying to think of a way to screw with her, and don’t care about the money because I’ll make her pay me back. I think she’s more worried about me being mad than I am.
Pretend like the police found drugs in the car with her prints and that she's going to have to meet with a detective tomorrow.

Never got my car(s) towed so far. But I know the police lot is really far outside and expensive in most cities I stay in, so it wouldn’t be that much fun to get it back.
Would it have been cheaper if she called earlier, or more convenient to get it back? Or did she just delay her own moving plans by not having a car?
There's Gotta Be More To Life
She had no idea when the car was towed
She just guessed because that was the towing time of the sign she parked next to. I don’t think it would have been cheaper. They have a scam here where they tow your car and then take hours to get it to the impound yard but you can pay $50 plus the $160 to have them bring your car back.
I once walked up to my car and they had a tow truck backed up to it
I had to pay $50 to get them to get out of my way.
I got a dumb ticket at Powell's the other night.
I parked across the street on a private lot…tried to pay but the dang machine wouldn’t take cash or credit card…so i just risked it and ran in for 10 minutes and came back out to a 33 dollar ticket. I really really don’t want to pay it.
My building painted the curb red and I got a ticket
Wrote a letter, took photos of the signs and curb and they still made me pay then painted the curb black. I wrote a lot of profanity on the check and ripped up their letter and sent it back to them.
Back in college a friend thought the local cable company (Falcon Cable)
Was screwing them over for some reason (don’t remember the details).
So, he drew a falcon with a huge weiner flying by and forcibly inserting it’s member into his rectum on the bill and mailed it in. It was funny because the drawing was real bad.
I write messages all the time on bills
My wife had a $16 dental bill. I didn’t see any of the old bills just one for $4.50 and late charges for 3 months bringing the total to $16. I circled the late charges part and wrote, “You suck donkey” on the invoice.
I hate that
We had a doctor’s office swear they’d been sending us a bill for months and we had never gotten it. They acted like we were lying.
The electric company here
Sent me a bill for almost $400 saying my meter was broken. I called and asked what was up and they said that they replaced the meter and came out one day, saw what our usage was and then averaged it out for the last 6 months. The problem was they said my average was like 60 KWH for those 6 months but before that and after that, I never even reached an average 50 KWH in a month.
I sent letters explaining that they needed to recalculate and called and all they would say was that they couldn’t help me because my account had a “Overcharge Investigation.” No one called or wrote, someone just decided they were correct and started billing me late fees. When I finally got someone on the phone, she was an idiot and said that they gave me a high average because oil prices were high back then. After about 20 minutes of trying to explain to her that her logic was wrong I told her to “Never mind, I’ll pay the {cuss word} bill, you’re all a bunch of {cuss word} idiots.”
I do online bill payment so in the memo section for the next year I wrote, “Your company {cuss word} sucks.”
The city of Portland replaced our meter for free.

They replaced it for free and even came out to verify it was working correctly
They screwed me over by making up a number to recoup their perceived losses from the old meter.
at my old work, when we got bills that were wrong, we didn't pay until they fixed 'em.
simple, effective.
we did get a ridiculous late fee tacked on that i called and got taken off
but a serious one? nope.
we did have a guy screw up some doors he put in our houses. that was a mess.
Checks are funny. They all but died out in Europe. I pay most of my bills electronically as a money order or like a subscription where they can withdraw the money from my account.

I spilled a glass of red wine over the carpet in my mom’s house years ago. The spot is getting worse by the year :)
I can only imagine what blood and wine would do to the couch I have now. It doesn’t even tolerate water. I’ll have to get it cleaned by some special fancy-pants company some time over the winter.
There's Gotta Be More To Life
The couch was actually the easiest
And one of the cushion covers was by far the worst stained out of everything.
It’s a cheap-ish couch, 3 years old, but it must have some sort of stain blocking thingy. Most of the blood wiped right up with some Oxyclean, and I ran the covers through the washer and they’ve come out perfect.
The CUSHION underneath the badly soaked cover, on the other hand, is still dripping blood. I have it drying outside still.

it would have been better if he added one more act to show more of the Basterds
but that would have made the movie about 3 hours, which is probably too long.
the problem was that he also had to explain the whole subplot where she owns the theater and they decide to show the premiere there, otherwise the rest of the movie makes no sense.
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
It was a while ago when I saw it
But the British set-up scenes for that mission could easily be cut, but they were cute.
You don’t need many scenes with her and the theater to set up the premiere. But, he’s powerful enough as a director to not need to cut whatever he doesn’t wanna cut, even if it may help the movie overall.
hmm that's true about the British scenes
the whole conference with Mike Meyers and Winston Churchill could have been edited out, and it could have just explained the British agent’s story in about 30 seconds…
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
Ya don't even need to explain it really
Just have the Nazi suspect this guy for some reason, and let the scene play out like it already does, and you learn he’s British once he’s caught.
The scene exists just to do stuffy British dialogue for fun. It doesn’t serve any other purpose.
I like the scene, but if one DID want to cut the running time or make time for more Basterds, that’s an easy cut to make.

seriously dude
we almost bought a quarter-acre lot ON the columbia river (like, bam walk out your front door and you’re on the walking path that goes along the river) for 80k.
The ground is flat and sandy there, so construction is a cinch. A 2 story 2500 square foot house was going to cost us like 140k ish in construction costs…added onto the 80k for the lot and BAM. 220, maybe 225k by the time you’re done and you have a beautiful house on the river.
as it is, we decided to go smaller
and bought a 1846 ranch for 160k.
Brand new, had only been used as a model home for one of the homebuilders. And it was a nice model.

Getting ready, driving slow
Stuff like that. The mom was super dumb at the rehearsal/welcome dinner the night before so things were tense.
i don't mind having a place where anyone is welcome or having some park area/chapel/whatever where anyone can hang out and pray/worship/whatever
but i hate the modern thing of “we all worship the same thing” and “no one is wrong” etc. Or having a “multi-faith service” where no real specifics are used. Christianity claims to be the only way…so either it’s right or it’s wrong.
accomodating everyone

Through our wedding search
I didn’t see many churches that would bend their rules or make it non-religious. We didn’t plan on getting married in a church… whereever we were gonna hold our reception was what we planned.
Turned out, we had a nice house to use for the reception, so we could get married someplace like Wayfarers.

It was a service that mentioned God but not religions specifics
We aren’t religious people, specifically.
I don’t mind a church opening the doors to anyone to allow them to be spiritual. A lot of people like spending time that way without being told what to do otherwise.
my dad pastored in Eastern Oregon for 12 years
it was an old country church complete with a big ol’ bell that got rang every sunday 15 minutes before church
That place either needs a new theological statement. Or they need to just do away with it and just be a wedding house. Don't throw the name church on yourself if you're going to be all mushy.
—>The Bible is the inspired Word of God that provides inspiration and help to lead better and more fulfilling lives. The literal sense of Scripture tells the story of the people of God, and contains a deeper meaning that illumines the journey of the human soul.
—>God gives everyone the freedom to choose their beliefs and live their lives accordingly. Salvation is available for people of all religions
I’d like to know how they reconcile those two statements with Acts 4:9-12
They're a Swedenborgian church
They got their own way.
Making it fit what you think it should be is part of the problem. They can do what they want.
To some
Saying you need to be a Christian to not go to Hell is as dumb as saying you can’t wear cotton poly blends, or can’t touch a woman on her period.
You can't

I guess...just makes me shake my head sometimes.
Jesus wasn’t a guy who minced words…he said I am the way, the truth, and the life and no one comes to the Father but by me…..makes me wonder how people mis-interpret that.
I do get that people get caught up on old testament stuff—that can be tricky.
But when Jesus steps up and says something straightforward like that…how do you miss that?
The first bar I ever got into
Was when I was 19 and I slipped a $10 to the bouncer under my ID. He let me in. I got pretty drunk and saw the bouncer in the bathroom later. I said “thanks for letting me in buddy.” He mumbled something that sounded like “don’t talk about it.”

Well I ain't no Bible scholar
But everything he said was second hand. It’s a good recruiting tool to say you HAVE to believe in him to not burn in Hell.
I just think it’s a silly notion that allllll the people who ever lived who never had annnnnny chance to meet or become a Christian are burning in Hell because of where or when they were born.
BUT, I am fine if that is what one believes. I just like for them to be fine with someone NOT believing that notion.
Probably why Paul said "how beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news"
and who knows—I certainly don’t know everything or how God will judge, but it will be fair and just and I do know what I’ve been given—I know what I need to do.
And yeah, I’m fine with someone who doesn’t believe the notion. But the trite example holds true—-if you see someone walking towards what you think is a giant cliff, it’s a good thing to talk to them, then yell, then tackle them before they fall off. I would think you’re a bad friend if you don’t at least warn them.
BUT WHAT DOES JESUS THINK ABOUT CHUCK NORRIS???

You’re gonna get some rockets right at ya in slow pitch since everyone will be pulling the ball. Wear a cup, no matter what (you won’t want to, but wear a cup), and go hit some slow pitch at a batting cage.
What is the best position to play for a noob?

Ya just gotta be ready
And you will get hit in the nuts at some point, guaranteed. Wear a cup, Sabonis!!!!
2nd base is the best place for the weakest person, because almost everyone is right handed and will be pulling the ball. Not very many grounders hit to 2nd base, and it’s an easy throw.
3rd base needs a good arm and quick reflexes and you can’t be scared of the ball. That’s all!
On the grounders, just keep your glove down and use your body to block it. It won’t hurt. Get in front and watch it into the glove, then get it in your hand and throw hard.
Inexperienced people
Try to field the ball to the side of their body, not wanting to be in front of it. It is awkward and harder and if you slightly miss it goes right past you.
So just take one for the team and block it with your body.
Great.

The baselines are short so if ya don't field and throw it cleanly
They’ll likely make it to 1st base.
BUT, if it gets past you, they could easily make 2nd base or if it’s right down the line maybe a triple. So, keep it in the infield.
We have a practice tomorrow at noon

last time I played
Practice was easy, the real game was painful. I pulled muscles I didn’t know I had.
you pull 'em fielding or running 'round the bases?
My biggest injuries are my wrists…i always end up playing in the rain and when you hit one hard, it sucks if you have a stiff handle
both
It was a tournament and we had to play 3 games and by the third one, I had no lateral movement.
That's usually where the weakest is stuck
So MY slow pitch softball team in college, Champion team the 2 years we did it, would aim at the right fielder. And since everyone tries to crank it in slow pitch, you’re always trying to hit it hard past the right fielder, who is usually one of the weaker players (often the mandatory girl).
If you’re playing people who don’t/can’t aim it at RF, then it’s a safe place to hide someone. Otherwise, 2nd base is best since all you get are accidental grounders from someone not hitting it well.
generally, in most rec softball leagues, there aren't many teams who are capable of goint oppo with power consistently
There will be those few teams (like yours) that can aim the ball with power, but if your team has noobs on it, you are probably going to lose to the good teams anyway. With most opponents, I’d rather they be trying to aim the ball at the RF (in my experience all but the very good softball players tend to pop up if they are focusing on trying to aim the ball instead of just hitting it hard) as opposed to pulling the ball with power.
If you are a good team in a really good league with one weak spot, I can see putting the weak link at 2B, but if you aren’t facing a team full of former high level HS/college ball players, putting the noob in RF is the way to go.
Actually, catcher is probably even better.
You'll still get pop ups and line drives to RF
So ya want someone who can get those, I say. 2nd base gets weak grounders off the end of the bat, and you always have the short stop cover 2nd base for force outs.
Our first year we didn’t think we’d have a good team, so we did the ‘fun’ league, but we crushed everyone so the next year we did the competitive league. It was more fun since you really had to earn it, and people could really hit the ball. We certainly didn’t have the most former HS players (I think we only had 3, including me), but everyone could hit it in play at least and get on base AND our secret super duper weapon was having the best woman players… I think the rule is ya needed 3 playing at all times.
Catcher is a good spot to hide someone too, except in a close game. You’d hate for a play at homeplate to fail because someone can’t catch a throw.
Also, our league didn’t count hits over the fence as homeruns, which I liked. It encourages line drives, better hits.
I wanna join a softball team now!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree
She is insanely overrated. Clearly more so than amy.jo just because people forgot about her. I just think calling amy.jo.johnson a ‘hot girl’ is just a bit much for her. Cute.. sure. Mostly pretty, yea. Hot? Not sure if I buy that.
But she is hardly ugly. Probably does not even deserve mention among the top 5 (or probably even 10) hottest right now. But definitely not ugly. Certainly fake also.
"...the primary focus of all obstacles is to induce labor, so progression can be born." - LiL C
Fine. I see this is where we must compromise
Perhaps it’s because we define attractiveness in different ways. I prefer a cute looking girl. Perhaps it’s because then I feel like I have a better chance haha. I also like Kate Beckinsale, who I think is somewhat like that but also can be “hot” (whatever that means).
But yes, I’ll agree with you that Amy Jo Johnson isn’t hot, but that’s fine with me.

Kate Beckinsale is a great example of a girl who can do cute and hot well.
We definitely define attractiveness differently as I am more likely to think a starlet is hot the less chance I think I have with her.

you just reminded me of some bad surprises--
One younger guy I knew via the interwebs, got his girlfriend pregnant. Over time, he talked about cleaning up his life a bit, going back to school, getting a good job, etc, etc—all in anticipation of being a father. She grew bigger, and he was equally filling with joy and excitement. And then, in right at the moment of anticipation, there was an unexpected silence. A few days later I tracked him down after a lot of emailing and whatnot. It was a really sudden silence from a consistent characeter. Long story short: The baby was black. He and his girlfriend were white. True story. I’ve never heard from him since… It was one of the worse stories I think i’ve had broken to me via the interwebs….

After some consideration
I don’t think I understand the usage of underrate/overrated:
It seems like it’s a passive way to attack something by defaming those who celebrate him/her. Example: I’ll say BRP is overrated, just cause I want to attack him. But really, I’m just inditing all of you for either liking him, or not celebrating my point of view. It’s much easier just to say either BRP plays dirty, or that you are all a bunch of fools. Calling someone under or overrated just seems like a way to talk hip per contemporary conventions. What it means, and what is trying to be said by the rater, are more than not two different things.
great point
BRP is probably the most overrated person under discussion. Rated very highly and certainly a great contributor, but not exactly playing the same type of game as the stat/contract/high levels of research guys.

God Gives People AIDS
In a revealing interview, God is now taking responsibility for the spread of AIDS. Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) has long been considered a punishment from God to smite those who need smiting, but God had remained quiet until this exclusive JD interview. .
So, God, we understand you have something to say about AIDS.
God: Yes, that’s right. People should understand that I give them AIDS for being evil. I’d like to set a few fact straights. First, I don’t love everyone. That’s a complete misread of my book. I actually hate lots of people: especially the poor, black, and gay. And women. Definitely should have left the whine off of that one.
Well, this is shocking. I mean, we all just assumed that God is love because that is what everyone says.
God: Yea, I hear that a lot. Completely not true. Sure, I love somethings, but I’m really about a lot more than that. Like causing tsunamis and AIDS so that they disproportionately kill poor people and gays. And blacks. It really pisses me off when people say that I’m black or that Jesus was black. I mean, the last supper would have probably been a BBQ if that was the case.
Wow, God. so I guess there’s no equality in heaven?
God: Oh definitely not. Heaven is basically like Augusta National when it was great before Tiger Woods.
Fascinating. Anything more to say about AIDS?
God: Well, there is really no point to scientists coming up with a cure since the only point of AIDS is to kill the infidels and 25% of their children. I’ll just keep mutating what you all think of as the HIV retro-virus until it has accomplishment its goal.
And, what is the goal that you are shooting for with this plague of destruction?
God: Yes, we are projecting that there will be no gays and 75% fewer poor people in Africa by 2022. We’re hoping to annex large regions of the center of Africa for a religious theme park ala Jim & Tammy Faye. Then I may start working on killing off rock ‘n’ roll and role playing games. So much smiting, so little time.

Hey, if you are still in here
I have seen the TO video, and he is getting killed for it here
I get the paper, so I don't care!
hmmmm...haven't been around here
he looked pretty good in it…
just turn the sound off i guess…
loved the through the lane hanging stuff…
last year all i heard was that he went home fishin..so maybe he was feelin a little defensive and underappreciated…didn’t really get to ask him … :-)…
liked the straight vertical no leg flail jumpers too
""..Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own . . . "
The hate on TO is really starting to piss me off
I love what you said though.
I also stand by my belief that if someone hates on Travis that they are probably racist. I don’t mind folks not liking him on the team and wanting him traded, but just being hateful means they torture animals and support apartheid.
I don't know
I just like sticking up for the underdog. I guess that is why I am a Blazer fan and not a L*ker fan.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
I just don't understand Blazers fans
They ripped on Outlaw for not working out last year and this year they are ripping on him for not working out like they want him to or for not being at the PF. Last I checked only Blake and Webster were there.
Like I said above, if someone thinks Outlaw is a bad fit on the team and want to replace him that is fine. The outright bashing is overrated.
Never feel bad about shameless self promotion
I do it all the time.

Unsourced rumor: Blazers are offering (unguaranteed?) contracts to Ime Udoka and Juwan Howard
Aka training camp invites a la Shav & Co. last year.
There's Gotta Be More To Life
hahhaha is she still around?
i remember she was the hottest thing since the oven in 2004ish, and then she kinda’ just disappeared.
I remember Juwan Howard talking about wanting to mentor younger players a few years back when he came to the Bobcats so maybe he would be a nice fit.
I am surprised contenders dont go after a steady guy like Udoka who still has something left. He would probably never leave then bench here, but might see spot minutes some where like cleveland
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
I will talk about DeJuan Blair no more forever
the key is the "something left" part
Udoka was flat out dreadful for San Antonio last year. There’s a very real chance he’s done as a useful NBA player.
I think both are good for the end of the bench
To be honest, I don’t care about anyone past the first 9 or 10 players because I would hate to see anyone but those guys on the floor in anything but a blowout.
That kind of goes along the same lines as some folks ripping on Outlaw in his workout video. They keep saying “What will happen if LA goes down?” How many teams are still championship contenders after their starting power forward goes down?
by tominhawaii on Aug 29, 2009 10:05 PM PDT up reply actions
yeah, but if Aldridge goes out for, say, a month
you want to be able to win some games during that time. Travis Outlaw and Dante Cunningham as the backup 4 options is something I’d be looking to change.
Who though?
We’re talking about a guy who should expect 10 minutes a night and then in case of a LA injury put out starter quality production in his absence?
Wasn’t the salary cap created for that reason?
by tominhawaii on Aug 29, 2009 10:10 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm of the opionion that a trade centered around Travis Outlaw could bring that type of player in return
as well as open up for minutes for a superior player in Batum.
So you want to trade down?

I don't get what you mean
I think trading Travis Outlaw for a more conventional reserve PF would be very beneficial to the Blazers.
I can see that
I stopped believing in trades. It’s like when I found out there was no Santa. Only with trades, it is a yearly letdown based on a fantasy.
I’m in the camp that won’t complain if Outlaw is traded because he might not fit. I also think there is a chance that he could become an unstoppable scoring threat off the bench. He was already more than half way there.
As far as Batum, I think it is up to each guy to earn his minutes. I don’t have a problem with anyone sitting on the bench if someone is playing better than them.
by tominhawaii on Aug 29, 2009 10:22 PM PDT up reply actions
He started Batum over Outlaw last year
To me that means Batum just has to beat out Webster who hasn’t played for a year. At the end of the season, Nate told Batum that when he came back he was the starter. I’ll find the quote if you don’t remember it.
If there are no trades, I think Batum could start all season and get his minutes and Martell or Outlaw get a DNP-CD. The only way I think Batum gets benched is from injury and there is already an issue with his shoulder. The playoffs are a different beast, I could see him not starting because of the match up like with Houston last year.
I’m starting to think that maybe folks hate Outlaw because they see him as a threat to Batum and Rudy’s playing time. Not you necessarily, but it came to me now, and it is on topic.
by tominhawaii on Aug 29, 2009 10:35 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm not worried about who starts
I’m worried about minutes and who finishes. You might be right about Outlaw and why some people dislike him, but for me, I would just like to see Nate play Outlaw less… and one way to do that would be to trade him.
I think this subject should be a fanpost
I don’t think I’m a better fan than you or that you’re a better fan than me. I don’t think I look at big picture and you look at the task at hand, or whatever the opposite of “big picture” is. I think we both want the Blazers to win and we’re passionate about our team.
I seriously had no idea people cared about stats the way Ben and KP do until I heard their last podcast. They are passionate about something that I only care about in the off season. I think it goes beyond stats though. Folks want Outlaw gone for more reasons than stats.
It’s probably not even left brain/right brain. Maybe it’s personality types with some other stuff thrown in like social aspects and whatnot. I bet video games have something to do with it too.
I think I took a big tangent here. Some fans see the team as family and other fans see them as employees. Maybe someone should make a graph.

I can’t name one meal you get fruit with.
I don’t want to start a tomato or avacado war, but i think you find fruit as an accent to many foods—raisins hide in a lot of dishes. In a salad you can find all kinds of fruits. More interesting restaurants will incorporate fruits in non-traditional ways. Torro Bravo does bacon wrapped dates…

i learn things:
…however, for scientists the word “fruit” also has a precise botanical meaning, which is considerably different from its common meaning. While peaches, plums, and oranges are “fruits” in both senses, many items commonly called “vegetables” — such as eggplants, bell peppers, and tomatoes — are technically fruits; and so are also most cereals, and some spices like pepper and chili.

don't have a choice? if you want to have a conversation, you've got to have some kind of knowledge of what you're talking about.
Example: Rich Franklin left elementary school teaching to fight MMA. Mirko Cro Cop is member of Parliament in Croatia. Obviously they have a choice. MMA only pays a liveable wage to the people at the top. 99% of the fighters make less than $1k per fight, and work side jobs to pay for the training. Nobody is in MMA because they have to be.

one of my very best podnah's
is a former Taekwando national champ,I have always wondered how the ufc guys would fair against a large black belt master
by southern oregon on Aug 29, 2009 11:08 PM PDT up reply actions
UFC guys today are generally competent in most forms of martial arts.
I’m no expert on Taekwando, but I would think that it wouldn’t be very useful against a wrestler. MMA is a lot like chess, every style has its weakness, and it’s hard to be great at all of them. Fighters like Georges St. Pierre are as good as they are because they are very good at everything, and weak at nothing.
Some guys are sooo good at one thing, that it takes awhile for someone to beat them (Brock Lesnar and Chuck Liddell are examples of this).
The original UFC shows would pit one dimensional fights against each other to see which style would win. almost every time, the fighters who were good at wrestling or jiu jiutsu would win, because the boxers couldn’t do anything on their back.
One of the funniest fights ever was a 600+ lb sumo wrestler fighting a 185 lb. brawler (this was pre-rules UFC, obviously). The street fighter got the sumo guy to slip and fall, and that was it. Sumo guy couldn’t stand up, so the little guy just pummeled him into the ref had mercy. Fortunately, with weight classes and state sanctions, you don’t see mismatches like this anymore, at least not in the U.S.

Some one needs to mug that guy so he understands when something is actually messed up
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.

lots of these are just crazy/annoying/funny situations more than something that shows how much your life sucks

someone needs to raise the bar so that we can laugh at actual people with terrible lives so that those of with only bad to mediocre lives can feel better about them.
The FML just posted does not accomplish that.

this one is more FML
Today, for the first time, I hugged the man I have been in love with for four years. It was a congratulatory hug at his wedding to my best friend. FML
Love.

that makes me feel better about my government cheese eating ways
I can sit in my stained wife beater whilst generic cola spills out of my toothless mouth and really have a go at that loser

Today, I was trying to have sex with my boyfriend, David. I moaned his name and he whispered, “I’m not David.” Then, with an Italian accent, he said, “It’s-a-me! Mario!” FML
Love.
