Junk Drawer 9/28 - I Hate Christmas

PrintI hate Christmas. It is the worst holiday ever. I hate that is is in the winter. I hate that I have to fly to some cold place in an airport filled with jerks, on an airplane filled with sick people, to spend the day eating too much, and opening gifts that I don't want.
I hate spending the day with family when there is football and basketball on. I hate that I can't watch every game because of Christmas. I hate that I can't go to the Blazers game on Christmas because I have to spend that day with family.
I hate wasting vacation time on Christmas when I could use that time and money spent flying home, to do something fun.
I hate Christmas cards. I hate sending them and I hate getting one from someone that I forgot to send one too.
The same goes for Christmas gifts. It's no longer about giving someone something from the heart; it's about giving them something better than someone else gave them, or buying them exactly what they want because they'll just return your heartfelt crap.
I hate Christmas shopping.
I hate Christmas traffic.
I hate how everyone is pissy around the holidays.
I hate Christmas carols.
I hate that Christmas crap comes out in the stores around Halloween.
I hate Christmas decorations.
I hate when idiots on either side say a Christmas tree is a religious symbol.
I do like that you can rearrange the letters in "Santa" to spell, "Satan."

Did you folks hear about the school singing about Obama?
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090926/ap_on_re_us/us_obama_school_song
I just saw it on CNN. I understand bringing Obama up during Black History Month, I don’t think I like that the song had some policy stuff in it, but I don’t think it is as bad as the critics are saying. The CNN parents said her son was “brainwashed” and others said it was an “indoctrination” song. The best is what the guy said at the end of the Yahoo link I posted because he is unemployed, has nothing better to do than hang out a grade school, and he brought up Hitler.
I like that the teacher has retired, and must remain anonymous

All right, it's time to clear some misconceptions.
1. I haven’t updated my MySpace in ages. I should probably delete it, but I’m a lazy guy.
2. I did use to work as an independent care provider through a subsidy of DSHS known as Community Support Solutions: http://www.cssow.org. On occasion, I’d head back to my parents’ house at the other end of town and watch my mentally challenged — or “special needs,” even though I’m not fond of that overly PC term — 17-year-old sister, who suffers from a genetic disorder known as Prader-Willi Syndrome. I no longer do it, though.
3. I now live with my 84-year-old Grandfather, as my Grandmother on that side of the family has been dead for several years. Together we equal one complete person, with that being myself congnitively and himself financially.

i had dinner with a ukranian and a russian last night
they believe that 9/11 was trumped up by the gov. in order to start wars.
on a personal level, they are very nice people… just like to hang out, eat good food, etc. but they have a deep distrust for our country. it’s sort of sad. i wanted to hung them and say “the cold war is over friend”.
but other people around the world don’t respect us very much right now. hopefully president obama will help fix that.

In order to attempt to sound smart or clue’d in. That’s all.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
Russians also don't believe Americans helped win WWII
we tried to tell him about the whole Pacific Theater and he kept saying they lost 50 million people in WWII and they are the ones who beat the Germans. Just cause they lost more people doesn’t mean they lost them effectively. I think you have to give at least some credit to the Western front. Can’t blame him though—that’s what 50 years of Commie propaganda will do for you, i guess.

Well, there is a common misconception ( among mostly Americans ) that the US came in and "saved Europe from Germany".
True, the US played a big part in ending the war, but Russia played a MUCH BIGGER part. They had been grinding it out with Hitler street by street, block by block for years, and beat him back before D-day. Had Germany not committed most of its military resources to the Eastern front, The AEF would have faced a MUCH, MUCH more formidable force than it did.

Er, I don't think he said anything that's "revisionist"

"We don't back down to nobody." --Joel Przybilla
isn´t true that
Stalin and Hitler had made a deal that gave each a part of the Western Europe and HItler broke the pact?
We should thank Hitler´s stupidity and arrogance and not the Russians for the WW2 outcome.
And then we should thank whatever childhood mentor created this attitude of
stupidity and arrogance, not the traits themselves, nor the Russians, nor the Americans.

Stalin killed how many Russians during and immediately following WWII?

wow
that is not what I said at all
I stated a fact, and you are going off on quite a tangent.
I doubt that US was directly involved, but I sure dont doubt that our government leveraged the crap out of 9/11 to enact laws and policies that would have otherwise had a hard time going through.

well
my russian friend believes 9/11 was a government conspiracy (not the date in itself, but the attacks on 9/11)…

"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
This is from a report on a football coach. But I could imagine that about certain Blazers officials, too
“He has a PhD in conservatism, both on and off the field. If you asked him whether his favorite color was red or blue, his response would probably be something along the lines of: “We’re going to continue to analyze those colors on a daily basis until the correct choice presents itself. We like both colors, and we’re happy to have them both as part of our system.”

I don't like christmas either
I enjoyed it while my daughter was between the ages of about 2 and 12, cause she really liked it. But now I don’t like it again. Too much commercialism, pressure to consume, etc. And I do not enter a store between November 26 and December 27. I stock up on necessities and shop on-line if necessary.

Yup
Same with birthdays. They should stop being celebrated at 21.
Once Santa goes away for the kids, Christmas should be just about sports.

However, the Celtics were successful with this plan. It seems like the only recent example where it works. Maybe it was because they practically blew up the entire team, and started from scratch.

I'd put a big * next to Malone and Payton.
They were going to win it all until an injury to Malone caused him to miss his trademark mid-range jumper and couldn’t handle anyone on d. They had no depth after him…
And Payton… well, he was toast by then.

Ah, but Malone only cost them $1 mil.
They just didn’t have others available. Devin George and Rick Fox are not a healthy Malone, and Kobe was being all selfish trying to prove his worth while Shaq was fuming.
Funny how the drama was about the stars already there as opposed to the big names they brought in.

oh, what a special holiday
top 10 reasons why Christmas sucks:
#12 – Christmas songs actually make you spend money :: From malls to street corners the tunes of the holidays remind us that we have gifts to buy in order to show our holiday spirit
#11 – Jack frost nipping at your everything :: Shopping in cold weather sucks, but so does Christmas in a warm climate (I’m in San Diego…it just doesn’t feel right.)
#10 – Starbucks is the most festive place on earth :: With 6 disgustingly festive drinks, 10 holiday mix/remix CD’s, and a plethora of decorations and themed mugs, its almost the perfect place to shop for loved ones (relax…I said almost!)
#9 – Christmas lights cannot be left up all year :: It would be so much easier if we could just turn them off and leave them up for the other 11 months, but noooo!
#8 – There is no Santa! :: When you’re an adult, wish lists are like holiday order forms. You might as well give me a gift card and save me the effort of returning the uh…"surprise" you bought for me on the 24th.
#7 – There are not enough weekends in December :: People have started to send out "save the date" emails in October… that’s just not right.
#6 – Jingle guilt, jingle guilt, jingle makes you pay :: The same sad looking little old men and women get posted by the salvation army every year to ring jingle bells that remind us that we are evil if we don’t put something in the big red bucket.
#5 – There’s no tradition of dressing slutty :: Ladies, you do it for Halloween, why not Christmas. I’d be very happy to unwrap a present with little more than a bow on it.
#4 – Egg Nog and Brandy :: Contrary to popular belief, this combination makes NO ONE happy. Not even grandma.
#3 – Hoe Hoe Hoe :: Because Christmas music has no shame and you get the Top 5 Christmas Rap Albums featuring "Christmas on Death Row"…really?
#2 – You get judged by the size of your package :: Good things come in small packages only works if its jewelry.
#1 – And the number one reason Christmas sucks (but we love it anyway)…because we have to wait 353.25 days to do it all again.

If parents pay
Their “estate” (depending on how much they have, but if parents are paying, then I’d assume a pretty good amount) shrinks. It is money now vs money later. Either way, the kids are still paying, but they might be too ignorant to realize it.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
I share your pain.
It’s the same thing for our kids and any other kids who actually study hard and sacrifice free time to do their homework, only to learn that no one else on their team has done anything. The teachers tell them they sympathize but won’t grade individuals on their share of the work. Whatever the team gets, each member gets. So my kids end up doing everyone else’s work. It’s outrageous.
Then there are the kids who try to copy my kids’ test answers and papers and get mad if my kids won’t provide them.

I wasn’t going to put their names on it either, but the one person who did contribute insisted the others get credit out of sympathy. When I turned in the project both of them were right there to make sure they got included and then talked with the teacher lying about how much effort they put in it. Now I’m mad again!

The date does have to do with ancient beliefs, but little with pagan holidays.
It was believed in the Greco-Roman worldview that people were conceived and died on the same day. Dates for Good Friday placed the event on the Julian calendar at March 25th. Though since Good Friday and Easter were also in conjunction with the Jewish Passover feast, the Lunar calendar has historically been used for those dates. However, since early on, the celebration of the Annunciation to Mary has always been held on March 25th, and still is today. Nine months later places the birth at December 25th. Numbers don’t work out exactly that way, but that’s the rationale.

is seen differently by different denominations. I don’t think baptism being directly related to salvation is an overarching theological tenant. Not all christians believe baptism is essential to salvation (ie being “born again”)

During his crucifixion, Jesus told the repentant thief
“Today, you will be with me in Paradise.” No mention of the Romans taking the thief down for
a few minutes so he could be baptized.
Baptism is something new Christians do to publically symbolize their transformation into a new life in Christ. It follows the by-faith acceptance of Jesus as their Lord and Savior but is not necessary for that acceptance to occur, otherwise deathbed conversions would be pointless.

Christ is a title.
The Hebrew is משיח or as it comes to us in English, Messiah, in Greek it is χριστος, both mean “Anointed One” And generally it is prophets, priests and kings who get anointed. So, “The Messiah” or “The Christ” means “The Anointed One.” Which was generally assumed by Jews to be a coming savior, though Jews today do not see Jesus as that Savior, while Christians do.
μὴ φοβοῦ, μόνον πίστευε.
my best friend is Mormon
and they believe that the LDS church is the true church of christ… that the catholic and protestant branches went away from christ’s teachings, so an angel, “Maroni” (not related to Laurence Maroney), told Joseph Smith where to find some gold plates in NY that had the book of mormon on them.
so they “restored” the church of christ and believe that all others are not the true church. Is that true or did Joe Smith make that stuff up?
by SonsofShawnKemp on Sep 28, 2009 9:41 AM PDT up reply actions
Depends if God really spoke to Jospeh Smith.
Could have, I suppose. As far as corrupting Christ’s teachings, manuscript evidence from as early as the early second century (100 AD) have shown that what we have as the Bible has stayed consistent for over 19 centuries. Don’t know where a charge of corruption could be sustained, given the physical evidence. Whereas we have no gold plates with which to even use as evidence.
Now, that isn’t necessarily a problem for the post-modern mindset. It simply takes the argument from objective to subjective. And it’s hard to argue in subjectives, so one is left to their own feelings on the matter. The nature of the argument changes. And whether that is good or bad, this is not really the place to get into that.
μὴ φοβοῦ, μόνον πίστευε.
right
Mormons claim (and i have nothing against them and my best friend is one) that the bible is still the gospel, but it’s watered down with centuries of manipulation, while the BOM (book of mormon) is pure.
But the Book of Mormon talks about things on the American continent that there is no physical evidence of them existing here prior to eurpopean discovery. So it’s seems made up. The gold plates? No evidence. Thus, I agree that manuscript evidence from the actual bible is just as strong, if not stronger than evidence of teh BOM.

As a Mormon, I don't feel disparaged with this conversation
but I don’t understand why there seems to be such a hang up over seeing the physical plates from which the Book of Mormon was translated. Even if they were able to be examined, it seems to me that all you would be able to tell is that they look old, and have writing on them. You wouldn’t be able to verify the translation for correctness, so you would need to take it as a matter of faith that the translation is correct. Which puts you in the same position that we are now, having to believe in something that isn’t seen.

Where is the faith element in saying “I don’t think God exists and therefore I choose not to ‘believe’ that he does” ? There are lots of things I don’t put faith in based on lack of evidence. That doesn’t mean it takes faith to say the Loch Ness monster isn’t real.

I think that it all depends on how you define as proof
Not everything can be verified in the same way. How you verify if it was cold outside is very different that how you verify that you love your wife. The differences in testing methods doesn’t make one more or less real.
To me, it is far more important to focus the strengthening of your faith than it is to focus on finding physical cooraboration for the events described in scripture. Finding physical proof of scriptural things are nice, but focusing on them doesn’t provide the anchor to your life that faith/religion provides.

Yeah, it’s interesting. The sticking point, is that Iran signed a treaty in the 70’s that states they will not seek nuclear ambitions. So, on those grounds, they’ll be punished. N. Korea renounced this agreement a few years ago. The other countries that didn’t sign it, were Pakistan, India, and Israel, all of which have nukes.
by EvilKaramazov on Sep 28, 2009 1:37 PM PDT up reply actions
Israel never admitted to having nuclear weapons
But as the past has shown, they would bomb the crap out of every country that tried something, with conventional weapons or not. That’s why I thought Hillary’s remarks about Iran during the election were funny. The US President couldn’t even get woken up, turn on the light and find the red phone or red button before Israel would have launched the retaliation strike against any neighboring country attacking with missiles itself.

Yep. Israel seems to have a lot of say in US policy.

Donell Taylor, 27, is a 6’6" SG who played for second-tier teams in Greece in the last two seasons and has NBA experience with the Wizards (98 games over 2 seasons).
Quinton Hosley, 25, is a 6’7" (some reports say 6’6", but plays bigger thanks to his wingspan) SF/PF out of Fresno State who played for Real Madrid last season. He is a physical defender and draws comparisons to Matt Barnes.

Muggsy has a career defensive rebounding percentage of 7.9%. That is very good for a player his size ;)
In one year when he had 9.2 he was better than Collins while playing 77 games.

13.4. 11.2 in total, which puts him in the bottom 25 of all time for players of that size who actually got playing time over their career (say 5000 minutes). Hedo is bottom 5. Bargnani is bottom 10.

Yeah, Donell Taylor seems like an idiot both on and off the court.
In that case, there’s no justification for inviting him to training camp.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
I think most curious training camp invites can be explained that way
It’s a year’s worth of cash to compete in training camp and get cut for some guys, and then they go play in Europe somewhere.
We are going after JamesOn Curry?
Taylor’s agent is not exactly one of the power brokers in the business
Brian Chase – (Primary) JamesOn Curry – (Secondary) Marcus Dove – (Primary)

I ain’t seen Norsk hate on Travis… and thinking he’d do better elsewhere isn’t a mean thing, I say.
I want Travis to succeed.
Travis would do well elsewhere
and he does have value… there are just too many reasons that make Travis an important piece of the PTB puzzle

I think core has to be limited to LMA, Oden, and Aldridge. Travis fits chemistry-wise but less so positionally.

"Junk is not, like alcohol or weed, a means to increased enjoyment of life. Junk is not a kick. It is a way of life." William S. Burroughs
But do you think LMA could play alongside Aldridge?
Maybe this is why negotiations aren’t getting finished? Because if we take one, we have to take both?

We have Blake as a spare part… so I suppose we could combine him with Nic to give him the wicked three point shot.

Outlaw
He said Kobe is the hardest to guard because he can hold the ball for the whole shot clock and most players you only have to guard him for four seconds.
Lame
He speaks the truth. Anyone who’s watched football has watched a QB hold the ball long and make a pass that shouldn’t have happened because the defense isn’t used to defending that long.
He gets beat up for poor BBIQ a lot
But he speaks about it very well. Whenever asked about it, he gives clear reasoned answers why things happened, what the play was, and he was doing what he was told to do.
He is quick witted. It would be unlikely he could be a smart guy off the court, and then be a total idiot on the court after playing so long.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
ppl just don't like the way he talks
there seems to be a hint of not liking him for reasons other than his smarts… he is plenty capable and smart. ppl are just prejudiced.

Apple should rename snow leopard to snow job. Works fine for most stuff, but if it gets a hiccup it's a disaster. Should have waited a few more weeks before installing it on a machine I need to get things done.
"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
But, but.....those commercials said Macs never crash or have viruses!!!
You mean those ads weren’t true????
Yes! Yes! In the face!
It doesn't crash and has no virus, but installing it on a machine with a lot of apps isn't the best idea
Not necessarily Apple’s fault, some developers just still use procedures that should have been abandoned 5 years ago. And finding out which one it is drives you nuts.
"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
It's essentially a service pack that changes a lot of things under the hood, and that gives some apps problems
Now my filesystem on a productive machine is slow as crazy, and I have to kill apps and reinstall them one by one and read up on what might be the problem. Works great on a laptop that doesn’t have 10% of the apps I have on that machine, e.g. few background processes and no virtual machine.
"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
is this a straight update on a macbook? or are you using bootcamp/parallel? just curious to see if having a windows partition would create that slow down
I have VMWare on my iMac, but I doubt that is the problem, it’s just the hardest thing to rescue since Time Machine and other backups want nothing to do with it. I suppose it’s some corrupted plist (preferences, etc.) or a background process that was still written before OS X/X-code. At least startup now is fast and smooth again, only once it has started you constantly get the spinning rainbow ball. Feels like Windows hourglass :)
"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
BTW sorry to hear it
Usually those upgrades go pretty smoothly. The bad part about Apple is that when it does crash… boom.
At least it doesn't suggest formatting the drive when it doesn't start. I haven't lost anything but some time.
"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
Pretty even keel there now, actually.
Starting with Vista, you can boot the install DVD and repair your OS without reformatting. It’ll fix boot sectors, restore to a previous state, etc.
Happily, even Microsoft has moved away from “you need to reformat” except in drastic scenarios.
They only steal from the best ;)

Tools of the Mind
Interesting article from NY Times about developing self control skills in children—something many are seeing on the decline:
At the heart of the Tools of the Mind methodology is a simple but surprising idea: that the key to developing self-regulation is play, and lots of it. But not just any play. The necessary ingredient is what Leong and Bodrova call "mature dramatic play": complex, extended make-believe scenarios, involving multiple children and lasting for hours, even days. If you want to succeed in school and in life, they say, you first need to do what Abigail and Jocelyn and Henry have done every school day for the past two years: spend hour after hour dressing up in firefighter hats and wedding gowns, cooking make-believe hamburgers and pouring nonexistent tea, doing the hard, serious work of playing pretend.
The key to success in life is pretending things that aren't true? Pass

I do not take someone imitating me with the intention to make others believe it WAS me
As a compliment. I take it as violating my name and reputation.
It may be intended as an “ode” to me, but I do not want anyone else using my name. It is mine. It doesn’t matter what the intention is, or if the comment was good, it wasn’t ME who made it and it was written to make people think it was me.
I don’t even want to know who did it, I just don’t want it to happen again.
This has happened before in real life. Nothing good comes of it. I’ll just let everyone know I am serious about not wanting anyone using my screen name with the intention to confuse, because it undoes whatever I have established with my good friends here in the Blazers universe.
I know I likely sound like I am making too big of a deal about it, but it is important to me. It will get out of hand and only cause trouble.
Being referenced, made fun of, pretty much anything is fair game. But not using my one and only screen name to make people think that the Mortimer guy is saying something that I am not saying.
It goes from complimentary homage to creepy very quickly.
That’s why I am making a big stink right now, since I suspect it wasn’t done with bad intentions. But I can’t let it slode next time.

How hard is it to fix the "cuts off the side" thing?!
Something you may not know. If you’re logged in and using a 1024×768 screen, the whole web site is messed up. You have to scroll to the right just to see the fanposts. Been that way for at least 4-5 months.
So I suspect everything is slow to fix here for some reason. There’s still no ignore list…
I don't have to scroll to the right, everything fits on my screen
But since, maybe, the last upgrade, when a post is all the way over I can’t see
past the black border on the side.
I’ll mess with some settings, because it is ruining my quality of life :-(
I also have that black-side-border thing
Seems like none of these problems are getting fixed.
I’ve been meaning to mail the tech guys and ask about it… perhaps it’s specific to BE or something. Maybe I’ll get to that tonight.
Yeah, I just don't know much about 'puters
To know if it’s an easy fix or what.
All me knows is, it didn’t USED to be dat way!
Negros didn’t eat at my lunch counter, and I could see what I was typong when the thread was way over to the right.
When my comments get way over to the side
when I am typing the box moves over with it so I can still see what I am typing.
I have the same problem in Firefox… I haven’t tried any others

per wikipedia
It is unclear whether there is an etymological relation between the term mullet as a hairstyle and the slang used to denote a stupid person in the late 20th century, There are also no known etymological connections with the Mullet fish. Conflating the two into one, a mullet wearer and a mullethead, is a product of the 1990s, several decades into the style’s popular appearance.

im worried
the ducks are getting too much hype now as the pac 10 favorite pac 10 power rankings i wouldn’t put them ahead of usc until they beat usc or usc loses again. Also harsh stuff for u beavs, getting put 9 out of 9 just for losing a few gams is tough stuff
So much of the rankings in college football is just guesswork
and nobody really knows anything. I don’t think that the Pac-10 power structure has changed. USC is the best until proven otherwise (i.e. more than 1 loss). The Ducks can still score a lot of points, but can they be consistent? And OSU is starting slow. What else is new?
SC has got a tough game at Cal

"...the primary focus of all obstacles is to induce labor, so progression can be born." - LiL C
Tom, if you're looking for something
that is legal to buy and easy to get I suggest whipping up a batch of Ayahuasca brew. (vine of the dead)
You will need some Mimosa Hostilis Root Bark. 1 oz. $7.99
http://www.iamshaman.com/eshop/10Browse.asp?Category=Roots%20Barks
and you will also need some Syrian Rue. $1.99-2.99
http://www.iamshaman.com/eshop/10Browse.asp
You want to cut up the root bark and boil it. When the water gets low strain it and save it. Do that two more times with clean water leaving you with small amounts from each. Combine them and put it on simmer until it’s a drinkable amount. About 30-45 minutes prior to drinking you want to take a gelcap or two filled with the syrian rue. This is a form of DMT. It’ll take you to depths that other psychedelics simply can’t. Lasts for about 6-8 hours.

I tried some of that 20X strength before.
Some guy I used to work with had some. He came up to me while still shaking from fright the night before. He handed me the rest of what he had and asked if I wanted it. I took it of course. Looked it up to read up on the effects and whatnot. It seemed harmless enough and would only last a few minutes.
Before I could exhale I was quickly slipping away to another dimension. At first it seemed as if a 100 pound bag immediately got dropped on me. It took all my strength just to move. Looking out my sliding glass door in the living room it looked like the garden of Eden out there. Then it was as if my living room was being sucked towards my front door through the peep hole.
All this time my cat was resting on my lap. By now my only thought was, “not my cat, not my cat too!” Crazy stuff. It’s amazing how quickly it comes on and just as quickly goes away and after a minute or two you’re completely sober once again.
yeah

Someone just forwarded me an article that has a 1994 eastern conference semifinal between the Knicks and the Bulls as part of the case. Funny
Major conflict between Phil Jackson and Scottie Pippen about the identity of the team without a clear leader (Jordan). Featuring Bill Cartwright as “the veteran”. There are also images of vultures to illustrate the article, which seams fitting.
Ronald A. Heifetz and Marty Linsky, "A Survival Guide for Leaders," Harvard Business Review (June 2002)
Maybe I should copy the relevant sections and post it on Blogabull. Or maybe Nate and KP could learn something from it.
"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
Wow, apparently Jackson had called time in a tied game with 2 seconds left and ordered Pippen to make an inbounds pass to Kukoc to take the final shot. When play was about to restart Jackson looked out and saw only 4 guys, then noticed Pippen at the end of the bench miffed because he wasn’t chosen to take the final shot. Jackson had to call another timeout, asked Pippen if he was in or out with Pippen saying he was out, and brought in a reserve player to make the pass to Kukoc who hit it. Instead of confronting Pippen, he had the whole team discuss it and find a solution because he felt it was an issue between the players not helping each other for the good of the team w/o their superstar.
(It would have been an even better story if the Bulls hadn’t ultimately lost to the Knicks in 7)

They want to raise our DVR rate from $3/mo to $15/mo
and our telephone bill from $5/mo to $25/mo. We’re already paying something like $130 or so for TV, landline phone, and Internet. We’re talking about dropping back to limited-basic TV and canceling the DVR and phone.
by MiledAnimal on Sep 29, 2009 11:18 AM PDT up reply actions
That's nuts
I’d say get DirecTV and League Pass, because you’re in the Bay Area and won’t get blacked out.
I own my DVR box, and they sell them at CostCo for like 80 bucks (or rent it if ya won’t wanna own it), and it’s 5 bucks a month for the DVR service. You’ll have to go elsewhere for landline and internet, but as far as TV goes, I am happy with my DirecTV and their service.
Plus when I moved last time, they had my new apartment/condo hooked up with a new satellite on the super tall roof and I was all hooked up and ready to go that day for free.
Cable always took forever to hook crap up, and the customer service was awful. My parents have had problems with Dish Network, but they also live in the semi-countryside, and I’ve been purty happy with my DirecTV DVR and League Pass set up.
I've thought about switching to DirecTV or Dish
but I’ve had a lot of tears over the years ironing-out problems with the computers and Internet service and I’m scared to fix something that works. Plus I know nothing about satellite services. For example, would I need to replace my cable modem with something else? My router? Does the feed tap into the cable outlet in each room? I’m assuming the answer is yes to all of those questions, but I’m wondering where the other shoe will drop.

I’ve done the DO THIS OR ELSE thing a few times too, but not too often… usually only about Blazers stuff. When they didn’t pick up the Blazers channel, I said I only wanted to watch the Blazers and because of them they are forcing me to pay 120/160 (forget how much) for NBA League Pass when all I want to watch is the Blazers. I am so peeved I am going back to cable etc.

Have to configure a bit since I have to look for bye weeks. Maybe Housh and McFadden for Thomas and Holt or Ward?

McFadden and Bell for Thomas and Ward might also be an option if it gets through quickly

bell is pretty much second fiddle to thomas now
thx, but no thx :-)
Kobe is my profile pic because of this beatdown I received.
True. But I could also give up McFadden if another player who fits my bye weeks comes back in a package (i.e. not Henderson)
E.g. Housh (WR) and McFadden (RB) for Thomas and Holt seems like similarly ranked and producing players in total.

score quickly so Dallas gets the ball back and starts throwing it around the field

The second pass was bad, but the first one was very catchable
And their offensive coordinator has to ask himself why he designs good reverse running plays all over the field but chokes there.

Yeah, Romo isn't bad at rushing. Failed design, failed catch.
"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
three times at a QB sneak with a good QB like Romo… that’s an option.
I would have liked to see them get him on the edge… maybe a naked bootleg with the tight end running an out pattern toward the same side and the other TE as a safety valve.

Nellie doesn't like Monta and they are miffed about his mofa accident and cover-up. They haven't said anything about Curry yet, and I suppose he would have accepted almost any team. Ellis wants out, and they slowly seem to agree.

I like when a dude has one good season and then becomes a prima donna
I wonder if the GSW beat writers have a hard time spontaneously yelling out “MOPED” anytime Monta is speaking.

Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
I will talk about DeJuan Blair no more forever
The Dallas Mavericks already have Jason Terry, so there's no need for Monta Ellis.
If I’m the Golden State Warriors, I’d look to blow it all up by dealing with the Miami Heat.
http://www.realgm.com/src_checktrade.php?tradeid=5247602
That won’t ever happen in a billion years, although both franchises might be better for it.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
If the Mavs can get Monta Ellis or Jackson for cheap, Cuban would do it.
"I think he can still play" - Kevin Pritchard on Juwan Howard
Stephen Jackson makes more sense, as I've mentioned before here.
http://www.blazersedge.com/2009/8/31/1008635/rank-ds-first#20484730
Yet, because Greg Buckner has already been waived by Dallas, a revised trade proposal whereby “Captain Jack” ends up a Maverick would send Kris Humphries, Shawne Williams, Nathan Jawai, unprotected first-round picks in 2012 and 2014, and $3,000,000 in cash considerations to Golden State.
http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=yb3pdgr
While “S-Jax” would add some spark to the Mavericks, Mark Cuban should still focus on acquiring another big guy to help Dirk Nowitzki shoulder the load.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
He seems correct though
A Monta/Curry starting backcourt will be awful. Neither can guard the SG and neither is a PG.
I like Monta more now.
he’s actually right.

He sounds very reasonable too
I’m being serious, he seems 100% right. He’s more mature than Nelly is, to realize SOMETIMES you HAVE to play in the halfcourt, and SOMETIMES you have to guard someone, and if both guy are 6’3" (which means they are 6’1"), and neither are playmakers, it might not work.
He seems more aware than I thought he’d be.
I kinda figured him to be a… lower BBIQ player. I was honestly impressed.
Still hate his game.

Before his injury
I found him in that Kevin Martin/Durant type of player, because he was so efficient and shot such a great percentage from the floor.
Not a great shooter like them, but great raw scoring numbers and percentages, but no defense or passing. Fools gold.
Discussion this morning on the Gary Radnich show
about Stephen Jackson saying he wants out of GS because they told him when he signed his contract that they would bring-in more help to get them to the playoffs. Radnich and others made the point that he’s being paid well to play well regardless of who they bring-in or don’t. The big problem if Jackson doesn’t quiet-down is whether they can even move him with that five-year deal.

Ok...after last weekend's football
I stated that I hated the phrase “after further review”. It is stupid….you “view” it..then you “review” it. “Further review” implies that you reviewed it twice.
Anyway…this week I hate the phrase …“Ohhh! That was almost intercepted!!”. Usually the defender barely touched the ball (most of the time with only one hand) …let alone catch it it. Al Michaels is especially bad about this.

The blowhards who have already called TKO on the Oden/Durant debate are embarrassingly premature in that assessment (3). A second season, 100% healthy Durant only had a +2.7 PER in comparison to a first season, 80% healthy Greg Oden.

That was nice and fair
I don’t even think they’re on their way to the playoffs with their current roster.
It’ll depend on who they draft next. The main keeper is Westbrook, and I can’t say how Harden will turn out. Jeff Green needs to be sold high.
Green needs to be sold high. One more year and he isn’t a young player anymore… his current level of production is mediocre at best. Unless he dramatically, dramatically improved this offseason, his reputation far exceeds his game.

It was twenty years ago today,

They’ve been going in and out of style
But they’re guaranteed to raise a smile
So may I introduce to you
The act you’ve known for all these years

"Early to bed, early to rise, makes a woman healthy, wealthy, and wise. That's why you all are wiser than me. It's cloudydays."
they all have their own hands, but they come from different mums
these are the daves I know I know
these are the daves I know
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
I will talk about DeJuan Blair no more forever
Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please
He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He say “I know you, you know me”
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me
"Early to bed, early to rise, makes a woman healthy, wealthy, and wise. That's why you all are wiser than me. It's cloudydays."
My next entry

I have some guys on bye week - but you have too. But I want to keep my defense, so probably no kicker next weekend.

I had the first pick in the draft though. My wife has the worst team ever. Sunday I checked the scores and everyone was in the upper 20’s and 30’s and my wife’s team had 5 points.

I found a 2" long beetle in warehouse where I used to work……instead of stomping it like everyone wanted I scooped it up wit h piece of cardboard and walked it to the big roll up door….when I got half way there I remembered that beetles can fly so when I got to the door I kinda flicked it into the air to see if it would fly…it did …for about 2 feet….when a giant bird swooped down and ate it …people say i had a surprised look on my face

NFL next Monday night: Packers vs. Vikings
Being a very-long-suffering Vikings fan I’m happy they are winning and have the QB position -arguably their weakest spot – finally covered. But it is a bit of selling one’s soul to the devil. Will he be Santa or Satan next week? (TIH?) Will Adrian Peterson spike him with a wooden stake if he throws a ball right at Al Harris?

Roy
Oden

Then I think BRP may be right
Though I wouldn’t be surprised to see Joel start, but I want it to be Oden.
Maybe not enough time has passed by then to have Oden FOR SURE supplant Joel.
if Miller starts with Roy, it will end all the media buzz...
i think Nate need to do it at the FanFest instead of stringing it along if Miller really deserves the 1 spot
I _hope_ it's this lineup:
DRE-BONE
ROY-BOT
BUTT-TOMB or WEBBY-STER (happy with either)

Wow. that aricle from RealGM about the Thunder was actually… well-researched and… good.
He hit all the talking points… Westbrook being better than the overrated Green, Durant’s playmaking and defense, not counting on a rookie to come in and be perfect at the 2…
i am now a fan of this Christopher Reina.
"If the Lakers are Hollywood, then we are South Central." - Clipper fan.
I agree
The only thing he got wrong in my book was that it is a given that they’ll be in the playoffs someday.
Like I always say, if they don’t draft some actually good players, they won’t be. Someday, yeah, but just not based on who they got now. Most overrated collection of young talent I can think of… maybe since the early 00 Clippers.
In udder words
Durant/Green/Westbrook as the 3 best players = no playoffs for loooooong time.
They’ll be broken up or a better player replacing Green sooner or later.
hmm
