Strange Habits Junk Drawer 1/13

PrintDo you have any strange habits? Do you do things that no one else does (to your knowledge)? Share your odd behavior with your fellow junk drawer denizens and take solace that everyone is just as strange as you. Or, if you can't think of an odd habit of yours or don't want to share, just tell us your bad habits.
I wet my toothbrush both before and after I put paste on it.
I can't go to bed without going number 1 beforehand. I just can't get comfortable with urine in my bladder.
I think checkout clerks judge me based on the food I buy.
I talk aloud to myself at odd times. For example, I will "convince" myself of what to get when ordering food or eating buffet style.
I'll just throw this bit of information in as well. Did you know nearly 50% of people wipe after number 2 standing up? Isn't that odd?

It's good to do the occasional rinse with hot water though
It helps get more stuff off the brush. You can still rinse it with cold water afterward.
Oh good!
Cause while I prefer every beverage I drink to be cold, I like brushing with hot water.

flossing then brushing seems like extra effort

Carl Perkins = Hero
There is a great Jim Jarmusch movie called Mystery Train where a Japanese brother and sister make the pilgrimage to Graceland in Memphis. The sister can’t wait to get to Graceland but the brother loves Carl Perkins, wants to see Sun Records, and does great tricks with his Zippo lighter.
Rock and roll is here to stay, – Elgin

My wife and I will still quote that movie at random times
One of us says “Elvis Presly” in a Japanese accent and the other has to reply “Carl Perkins”. It’s like Marco Polo for cinema geeks, but with no water. Or blindfold.
Okay it’s nothing like Marco Polo.

I'm amazed how underrated King of the Hill is.
It’s a more linear show, with less insane storylines and random cuts to pop culture.
It’s no Simpsons, but it has episodes that can compete with most animated shows. And it had an amazingly long run for a network show.
this is true.
King of the Hill was a good show. I didn’t watch it enough. But the episode where Bobby learns women’s self defense cracks me up.

They definitely have their ups and downs
But there’s a lot of quality entertainment mixed in.
I think a lot of people get the wrong impression of the show based on the previews, or by watching a few minutes.
It's on cartoon network
my wife watches it every night.
Great show, but it really grows on you, it doesn’t have the instant wow factor of other Fox animated shows.

Strange habits...
1. I am a grammar nazi in real life. On Bedge I’m pretty lax, but I will point out every little grammatical mistake I see or hear in real life to whoever will listen. Drives the gf nuts.
2. I do this weird thing with gum where I spread it out over my tongue like I’m about to blow a bubble but don’t. It’s just fun.
3. Water bottle fanatic. I always have a case in the backseat and a case in my bedroom. I always have a bottle with me wherever I go. I have four on my bed with me right now as I type this.
Probably others…those are the ones I can think of off the top.
Ha ha, good catch!

My roommate (girl) used to believe that
And it annoyed my (not yet) Wife and I, because she would go use the bathroom naked in the middle of the night, often walking past one of us if we were awake.
Then she got a kitten who had been weaned too early, and still suckled. Let’s just say Suckling Kitten with sharp little kitten teeth and exposed nipples did not make for comfortable sleeping.
She started wearing PJs and we still have the kitty 15 years later (roommate is long gone).

the squalls would some times come in these super narrow bands where it would be raining hard at the swimming pool, but not on the roof.

Dank — stupid word unless you are describing the Olympia, WA basement I lived in with 10,000 fleas and millions of mold spores. Sneeze/itchy paradise for a poor college student. Actually, dank is a great word when it is used to mean dark, damp and smelly.

1.) I sleep with only underwear on, even during the winter. Clothes make me uncomfy in bed and I learned years ago that it’s just easier to do without.
2.) When I am lounging, I need a blanket, even if it’s 100 degrees outside.
3.) When drinking beer out of a can, I pull the tab off and play with it. When I drink beer out of the bottle, I peel the labels. Every single time I do this.
4.) I will not take a break at work until I finish a task I set for myself. No matter how long it takes me, I will not leave my desk, even to pee until it’s done.
I have more, I just can’t think right now.

Hello Colleagues. Game tonight; feels like it’s been forever since our last one—I could just be that my football season is over, adding my attention…
hello
indeed, a game tonight. i am flush with the anticipation of the possible return of a certain Spaniard, one Rudolfo Fernandez.

i'd say about 33.3333333333333333%
and I think it’ll only be for 8 minutes at most if he does. He might hit a 3. I’d guess if he plays it’ll be a couple minutes to spell Brandon in the 2nd quarter and then a couple more near the end of the 3rd.
the 15th will be the first game he comes back for 10+ minutes I think.

someone is going to get squeezed out, and probably be unhappy about it.

probably.
i’m hoping all that happens at first is that Brandon’s minutes get reduced to about 38 or so. And then for the rest of Rudy’s minutes, Martell will probably take a 6 minute hit, and, with any luck, Blake’s minutes get cut way back. But what you’re referring to is most likely what will happen: less Bayless and Miller (which will make my friend Tom happy).

I dunno
The Blazers are conservative with injuries. I am not sure if he plays or not.

this is a different type injury though.
from what i’ve heard, it’s more about him feeling comfortable and being in game shape rather than fear of reinjuring right away. i’d expect if they think Rudy can go and be effective, they’ll give him limited minutes. Even Rudy said he thinks he could do 5-7 tonight.

If speaking on the internet is an expression of free speech, then are those who cannot afford internet connections being discriminated under the 1st amendment? Could Comcast be sued for limiting free speech during peak periods to those who pay more money?
I love thinking about how the internet screws with the Bill of Rights. BTW… I’m all for the Bill of Rights and the internet. Stop judging me.

Since the internet isn't owned or even ownable it would be hard to impose a ban on it for individuals.
It's a tune-out fest.
i think it’s more along the lines of being unable to get a comcast (or equivalent) account for internet. you could have a friend or roommate get you internet at your residency I guess, or you could live in coffee shops.

i think if they could have it their way, the US government would control the internet access in the states. i know DARPA has looked into possible systems of control. I know a number of politicians (mccain foremost) feels internet neutrality (the ability to go where you want, surf what content you want) is a possible threat.

The idea of a government restricting what you can see on the internet, feeling that open internet content is dangerous, absoloutely terrifies me.
It's a tune-out fest.
The beauty of the internet is that it doesn't belong to anyone, unlike television or radio, it should never be censored in the same way.
It is not something for governments to meddle with as another way of controlling a population.
It's a tune-out fest.
It's been imposed before

schadenfreude, from truehoop via the Toronto Star:
“In the wake of Monday’s dispiriting loss, Hedo Turkoglu, who went 2-of-9 from the field in a team-high 38 minutes, clarified his thesis. ’It’s not like I’m (criticizing) the guys or the system or anything,’ he said. ‘In this situation, I can just do this, and I am trying to do my best.’ What he’s saying is as clear as it is disingenuous. You could be kind and call him a realist, but his ‘I-can-just-do-this’ act is defeatist. The idea that he can’t play better than he has played on any given night, in any given system, is ludicrous. Teammates are making that point by stretching themselves, at least occasionally. One small example: Though Andrea Bargnani defines himself as a shooter, and though he missed 10 of his 14 field-goal attempts in Monday’s loss, he persevered for a career-high 17 rebounds. ‘I didn’t play good offensively all game, so I tried to do something else,’ said Bargnani, in a small revelation. There’s a novel concept for Turkoglu: Try to do something other than bemoan the alleged limits of a role.”

I was on the fence when he was signed
I would have to say it seems he has helped with the first quarter slump, but other than that, I hardly notice a difference. The record is the same as last year, but the team has been decimated, so it is hard to tell.
Personality wise – I don’t love him. He seems kinda jerkish, and not in a likable way, more like a annoying way. I would imagine that when he comes into the room the general feeling/vibe doesn’t improve.

Hill gets a clean steal from Kobe at the half court line (Kobe was standing there dribbling)
And took it down for the dunk while Kobe fell to the ground.
Ah, saw it on the highlight reel on NBA.com.
I think Kobe definitely flopped there to get a call. Pretty pathetic, he was picked clean on a lazy dribble.
It's a tune-out fest.
ahh, but check Hill's forward foot as he planted it behind Bryant
There may have been some dramatizing, but I think when Kobe tried to step back for balance he couldn’t move his foot back, so perhaps it was a legit fall. But it was definitely a legit steal.
I told everyone in the JD that would listen that the only thing Kobe hurt last night was his ego
They had lost 3 in a row on the road, and were getting handled by the spurs. So he decided to have some “back spasms” to get out of taking responsibility for a the 4th loss in a row. He’s a baby…

I didn't see this posted anywhere:
Randolph was waived to prevent his non-guaranteed contract from becoming guaranteed Jan. 10. Should Randolph clear waivers, he could then be re-signed by the Blazers to a 10-day contract. However, a source informed The Columbian it is unlikely the team will attempt reacquire Randolph.

He was in the GDT during the Cleveland game
Sounded like he’s a big LBJ fan and defends him regularly. He did the “if he was on your team, you’d love him” post during the GDT.

My weird habits:
I too wet my toothbrush before and after brushing my teeth. I also have to tap it twice on the side of the sink after. Idk why. OCD or something.
When I’m alone in my house I sing as I watch television. Especially when I watch sports. Usually I’ll have a “lucky” song. Like when GB and Arizona were playing a couple days ago. I came in when GB was down 17-7. I started watching and singing, “I wanna hold your hand” they tied it up. I had to go to my DVR to delete some shows before I could record the overtime, and in the process, paused my singing and the Packers lost. Sorry GB, I can’t babysit you through every game.
I went to the malls and I balled too hard
'Oh my god, is that a Black Card?'
I turned around and replied, why yes but I prefer the term
African American Express
who doesnt wet their toothbrush??

Is all of the hate
Surrounding Pete Carrol’s decision to goto the Seahawks and Lane Kiffin’s decision to goto USC just fluff?
I’m not entirely informed on Kiffin but i’m getting the impression that the media is just mad that Carrol didn’t stay long enough for them to crucify him when the inevitable “Reggie Bush cheated the NCAA” story came out.
Keep the faith.
Kiffin has a 11-21 record as a head coach
In the NFL and College, not exactly a stellar record.
He was USC’s O-Coordinator but not the best one.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
But he has assembled a pretty good staff
with one of the best OCs of the last 20 years (Chow) and one of the best DCs of the last 20 years (his dad). Ogeron can recruit as can Kiffin (although perhaps not totally by the book).
So it seems that Kiffin can almost just hand off things to his coordinators and the team will do well.
Chow is not certain yet
Neuheisel is trying to keep him.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Reports are it is far from certain
Its hard for Chow to be good since UCLA doesn’t have a QB.

As a Seahawks fan I'm skeptical
The last time we gave the keys to one guy (Holmgren) it didn’t turn out so well. I think that, if they could have kept Mora Jr. and gotten a high-powered GM who could turn things around personnel-wise, they would have been better off.
I guess it’s still possible they will hire a great GM but will that person want to report to the head coach? I hope so. – Elgin

here’s a habit you’d like: When i buy a new book, I open it in the center, flip a few pages to toward the beginning and run my hand down the spine (where the pages come together). i repeat this until I get to the front cover, then i open it again in the middle and do this process towards the back cover. It helps the spine in the long run, so you don’t create creases and break the pages away from the spine.

Does specialization early actually help?
Players like Jordan and LeBron both played multiple sports in HS and it didn’t seem to harm them.
Of course there is the arguement that they were such tremendous athletes that they would have done well regardless of how they prepared.
i believe it’s best off if you allow the kid to play multiple sports early on, instead of specializing in one sport. especially if that one sport is baseball.

although I think that most of the pressure to specialize is due to parents hoping that by specializing their child will be able to get a college scholarship.

Can’t separate the two. Unless you can identify a practice that is significantly better than the system in place, all you can do is make assumptions based off of one’s biases. If you believe the medical system is at fault, then that’s what you believe and good luck finding evidence to change your mind. Accidents and injuries happen, and as long as they’re theoretically avoidable, the system can be placed at fault. In hindsight, whenever something goes wrong, it was the product of a wrong decision and the person who made that decision should have decided otherwise, so time to point the finger.
Kinda like blaming a coach for all team failures regardless of overall success. Theoretically there’s a coach that will realize the success while avoiding the mistakes, so it’s just a matter of finding that perfect theoretical coach. Which of course doesn’t exist.

this makes me laugh
The guy who wrote this piece about the ass grabbing incident is a total douche..and if a teen age boy grabbing the ass of an older male stranger is acceptable to him, he needs to get into therapy…… can we say closet pedi?…if you think this comment is a bit over the top, go back and read the "article" as many times as it takes for you to understand that this was NOT normal or acceptable behavior on the part of the "fans" and it is NOT alright to excuse this type of "personal space" intrusion. Had these kids gotten his attention in a more appropriate manner, they would probably all have autographs and the hack who wrote this would have no "story"
And just a footnote…living in the same general geographic area as LeBron, I never cease to be amazed at his overall congeniality when approached by fans in public…there is no discernible security detail (posse) surrounding him, he is obliging most of the time (sure he says no sometimes, but does he really HAVE to stop what brings him out in public every time someone makes a demand of him?)..and he tries to avoid the spotlight as much as is humanly possible when on "his own time"…this from someone who has seen him in public numerous times

I do like topical shows
But I don’t think South Park is quite as witty. Often it simply ends up with graphic violence or some other “shock value” scenes, then whatever message Trey and Matt want to make, often in an overly-simplistic matter.
And this is from someone who still enjoys some of the episodes, and really enjoyed older episodes. It doesn’t help that I outgrew their “edginess”.
don't worry
that is all I know. I can’t spoil anything if I don’t know anything.

that, in and of itself, is a spoiler. i saw a promo picture related to Lost that I considered a spoiler.

it was the one that looked like The Last Supper
the inclusion/exclusion of characters in the picture i considered a spoiler. As well as the theme and whatnot, though that’d been brewing most of the series. the positioning of the characters was also interesting.

If anyone's following the Chasse fiasco, now they are trying to switch venues
Not really looking to argue the conclusions of the case because that is asking for trouble, but the fact they want to move the trial seems ridiculous to me.
Maybe they should move it to Timbuktu where they don’t have the internets.
Seems to me the city of Portland is just terrified to confront this issue head on.

right, that's what i mean...Idaho has the internets too
granted Idaho leans right and is probably a more sympathetic place for this kind of trial.
also with all the senseless police assasinations in Wa, that is probably also a more sympathetic zone for this trial
problem is that the prosecution has to come back here when its all over.

I obtained my position after wresting it away from my default predecessor in a bloodless coup, after a unanimous vote of no confidence by the HOA, after the first order of business for him was to enact a salary for himself and his wife. I’ve always aspired to be a benign leader with a legacy of conflict resolution over rules enforcement. I keep my hands off cause I don’t believe in needless conformity.

That's his story.
History is always written by the victors. I bet he tripped on the self destruct button, knocked Galvatron over, then fell on the Matrix, which turned him into Rodimus.
Then later, he told everyone, “Let me tell you how heroic I was! Someone make it into a movie.”
STUPID KIDS
Optimus had Megatron beat, and the stupid kid needed to get involved!
I think he had it planned out from the start, to steal the Matrix.
Then why didn't he run with it
when he SAVED it from destruction when the dying Optimus was trying to give it to Ultra Magnus?
Because the rest of the Autobots could see him!
He was power hungry, but they would have chased him and taken it from him. Then they would have never been dumb enough to let him lead.
The dude is an evil genius.
They should have known better, too.
He never turned into an ultra Ultra Magnus after he took it. I mean, they’re Transformers, you’d think they’d have realized the Matrix didn’t Transform him into anything else.
Ultra Magnus was the Autobot version of a bad rebound relationship.
Looks like Optimus Prime didn't go a very good job of developing those that he led
He never planned for the day that he wouldn’t be around to come driving in and save the day. He couldn’t learn to delegate.
Sure, he's not perfect
But have you ever saved the universe just by picking up a stereo and playing “You’ve Got the Touch”?

It's not on the menu, but if you ask they won't question it.
And it’ll say “animal style” on your ticket. You can find the codes online, there’s animal style, the flying dutchman (no bun, locarb), a breakdown of the burger numbers. They’re all made up by past employees who had their own codes, and it got around to all the restaurants but they never bothered advertising it.

Watching different game
I was thinking Dallas’s Josh Howard.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
I suppose it's possible that
the nature of his body and hands make it very difficult to have a good shooting touch, just like no matter how much I train, I’m not going to be able to dunk.
You won.
by Roybot on Nov 11, 2009 1:41 AM PST
Athletic limitations and technical skills are a little different. It is a strange case though.
He has huge hands which you would assume would improve touch, having a greater surface area covered should mean a greater control. Maybe his giant musculature promotes a lesser ability to feel differences in “touch”.
It's a tune-out fest.
I dont know dude
try shooting a tennis ball…it aint easy
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
I don't think that hand size is much of a determining factor for shooting a jumper
People have tried to blame Shaq’s free throw shooting on his huge hands, but Dr J had huge hands as well and it didn’t seem to have the same impact on his game.
I guess you would have to compare the size
supposedly Rondo has the same problem due to his large hand size (maybe include shape as well) that makes it hard to keep the ball on the fingertips to get the appropriate amount of backspin.
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
interesting. Andre Miller has big hands and even longer fingers, I wonder if that hurts him.
Can’t make that form pretty, though.
#52 #10 #25 #88 #5
When you learn to shoot “jumpers” by watching old Dumars tape then you know you are in trouble.
I would think the long fingers would not hurt him as it seems like the problem might be huge mitts compared to finger length, but I am just spitballing here.
my assumption is that the length and jointedness (totally a word) of the finger allow you to keep the ball away from your thumb and palm.
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
interesting.
I am taking physics and chem this term. what did you think of thermochemistry? My prof makes it out to be the hardest thing in the intro chem series.
#52 #10 #25 #88 #5
what topics are being covered? I remember the thermo portion of our chemistry to be rather formulaic, and I only understood it much later when the different types of free energies, Gibbs, Helmholtz, etc were explained in a stat mech/thermo course.
Otherwise, like most chemistry, it seemed rather ad hoc at the time. If you get a chance, ask your prof why the octect rule works. I have found no good reason why it should, which seems interesting since it seems to work pretty well…for the most part.
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
right now enthalpy and entropy. Thermodynamic laws for the first half of the term, and it does seem rather formulaic.
#52 #10 #25 #88 #5
yeah, those arent bad, but they are bad for people who arent so hot at algebra.
It is actually interesting when approached from a first principal perspective, i.e. derived from basic laws, as all of those free energies depend on what variables are conserved in a process, but it takes more rigor and thus time than most survey chemistry courses can take.
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.

Every team in the NBA makes a run at some point in every game
considering we were playing 2 players who were just barely coming off of injury for the majority of their ‘comeback’, i’d expect us to struggle. Kudos to Nate for not panicking and putting starters back in until he absolutely had to.

It got down to 11 with a good 5 minutes left. Inexcusable.

LMA made some sloppy plays too, it just all fed into the other without a stable hand with the ball.

It helps that Cunningham and Pendergraph are good. Blair is a monster though.

From what I've seen in maybe 10 games this year
Blair’s bad defensive rep is true. He’ll be a great rebounding/scoring role player off the bench, but I like Pendy’s defensive ability more.
#52
Blair will be a far more productive overall player imo
but given our current donut status, Pendy might be more valuable.

As long as he doesn't get the itch to want to start permanently
I think he’ll help whoever he plays for a lot.

I was on the island of Caye Caulker in Belize three weeks ago.
It’s an absoloutely beautiful place but the biggest thing in Belize is the blue hole. We had to go and see it. Luckily there are tours with local companies to go snorkelling and diving there, you can opt for speed boat day trips or 3 to 4 day sailing trips. Wanting to get the proper experience we took a sailing trip with a small company. Once we reached the boat the morning after arranging everything we realised something was wrong, the boat was easily twenty years old, normally not a problem but after such heavy usage it was deteriorating a lot. We got on anyway, figuring the captain new what he was doing.
The first day was brilliant, sailing through the Caribbean and watching the crystal clear water for fish or dolphins. We had a great time taking in the sun and the occasional thunder storm. We slept over night on the boat and woke up early so we could reach the blue hole in time and do some snorkelling. We were going pretty fast, mostly using the engine on board but once we got onto open sea, no longer shelterred by islands or reefs we could use the sails more often. What cap’n had neglected to tell us is that this was a shortcut that had to be taken to make the trip finish on time, we weren’t told about any short cuts, the boat wasn’t designed for the open sea, at least not in it’s shape.
Things began to shake violently, the cables couldn’t take the strain of the movement of the mast. A few snapped, a few more snapped from taking more strain, eventually the mast was left without enough support. We were in the middle of the sea, the water a good 100 metres deep and fairly healthy shark grounds. We were also 18 kilometers from the nearest island. The wind kept going, making the mast creek louder and loude. Eventually the base snapped, the bolts had come lose and the mast was free to rip it’s way through the hull and cap size us.
At this point the captain put the engine into full work mode, but it was too old and eventually after 3 km it set on fire with a leakage in the fuel system.
We were stranded, drifting further out, with no transportation. The sail had ripped free from the mast too and was unrepairable. The mast itself was slowly ripping free from the hull and began breaking through the cabin.
That wasn’t a particularly survivable situation. But, we found enough rope and managed to tie down the mast to the boat at certain points. It was still broken beyond repair but we weren’t under the threat of capsizing any more, or drowning.
The captain managed to find a spare bit of hosing in the hull and fixed the engine. We drifted slowly towards a deserted caribbean island with a little engine power. We stayed on that tiny island (200 square metres) for a day and a half before we set off again, using the smaller boat we had previously been dragging along to tow us to Belize city.
We never made it to the Blue hole and I am considering legal action to retrieve my money. 300 US.
Still, scary situation.
It's a tune-out fest.

-Did Rudy play well?
-Bayless, did he continue his good first half?
-Roy didn’t play much I see.
Hmmm?
#52 #10 #25 #88 #5
Rudy moved well!
Bayless and Blake both didn’t handle the full court press during the final minutes of the game, playing sloppy and letting the Bucks get within shouting distance.
Roy went to the locker room to get his hammy taken care of; we didn’t put the bad guys away till Dre came in and settled things down.
#52
During the GDT
I kept saying “ok…. put dre in…. c’mon….”
And then we did finally, and we won easily.
#52
Rudy was quiet but fine
Bayless struggled when the tide turned in the 4th. Miller had to come in to stabilize the team and stop the bleeding.
Roy left to the locker room to get his hamstring attended to. Didn’t sound serious, but he wasn’t returning.
let’s hope that hammy be k.

Martell, Rudy, Bayless, Nic, Andre… they are all dynamic players who can impact the game on one end of the floor. Steve is a nice caretaker backup. Let him be good at what he is good at.

I only watched the first half, when he was great. I do see that he played pretty poorly in the second.
Even if Bayless isn’t playing well on a particular night, I think this year should be at least used to give the young kids playing time to figure stuff out.

going all AK and quoting myself, last May.
My issue with Steve is his late game performance
Let’s look at some examples:
Indiana – Steve was given the ball on the inbound pass with under a minute remaining, a one point Blazer lead, and Indiana forced to foul. He fumbled his dribble into the hands of Marquis Daniels, giving up an uncontested layup. Fortunately, Brandon made up for this with two free throws.
Houston (Game 3) – Down three and with under twenty seconds left, Steve pulled up from about five feet behind the arc, releasing an airball which would clinch the Houston win.
Clippers – Ugh… not much more needs to be said.
Dallas – Travis stole the ball from Kidd, giving the Blazers a shot to win. Steve hurried the ball up the court, attempting a risky pass into the teeth of the Dallas defense. Oy.
Now, because the the losses are painful and thus memorable, I may be forgetting Steve coming up big in clutch moments. I do remember Toronto. Can anyone help me remember some of his other good moments?
In clutch situations, Steve’s performance wasn’t good all season, as shown by 82games.com’s "clutch" statistics.
In the last five minutes of a game and teams within five points of each other, Steve had the following notable statistics decline:
-His "hands rating" dropped from 28.6 to 13.3.
-His free throw shooting dropped from 84% to 64.7%.
-His passing rating dropped from 11.7 to 4.0.
-HIs FG%and eFG% dropped from 42.8% and 53.6% to 35.7% and 44.6%, respectively.
Just something to consider.

My eyes tell me Juwan is killing us on defense, and his on/off stats are pretty poor in general.

Howard has been everything we’ve asked him to be and more… I think we ride him as long as we can until his legs fall off (should be 3 or 4 more games) He has experience and makes the smart plays consistently, while JP and DC make occasional brilliant plays mixed with dumb rookie ones

Howard has not in any way shape or form been anywhere near the realm of awesomeness, let alone goodness
He’s been mediocre, which is way better than I expected and has been a very useful stopgap for a severely undermanned team.

PER isn’t +/-, it’s a statistical aggregate. Single game +/- has very little meaning, too much statistical noise.
I’m not sure what you mean to say here. Juwan had very few minutes before Greg and Joel went down, so ti’s not like his seasons stats are unreliable. Jeff has been better this year than Juwan, per minute. There’s no reason not to give Jeff a chance to see how things would turn out.
I get that we all love that Juwan has played better than we expected. That doesn’t mean he should play over a younger player with better production. It’s not that Jeff has potential, it’s that his playing better right now.

Cabby, come on meow...
Howard has been crucial to this team’s success since Joel went down. He is the only player on this roster doing a decent job at filling in at center. Since Joel went down: he is 46 of 90 from the field, and the majority of those shots are keep the defense honest jumpers from 10-15 feet. Opposing Centers have to respect his mid range jumpers, simple as that. The beauty of it all is that he is smart enough to know when he needs to take the jumper and when the defense is respecting him enough for him to keep the ball moving. He has been a joy to watch, his mistakes are next to nil, they respect his shot, he moves the ball, they give him slack, he hits the jumper at a solid percentage. Whats not to like about that?
On top of that, his rebounding also effects the blazers. When he gets six or more rebounds a game, we win(7-0). When he gets less than six a game, we lose(0-4). Six rebounds is obviously an arbitrary number, I admit it. But so far, it shows that when Howard rebounds at an even decent-mediocre rate, we win games. When he doesn’t, we lose. I believe Howard has been the 3rd or 4th most important player since Joel went down. Pendy is down around 7th or 8th, even though I love the kid. I wouldn’t mind a few more minutes for him, but Howard has been better than you or snake give him credit for….

But, of course, if I could make a dunk on his face I would. - Rudy
a lot of our losses since Joel and Greg went down have been on the defensive end, where we can’t stop anybody. Juwan’s offense has been nice (and its unclear with how sustainable it is, seeing as it’s far above his career rates), but his defense and rebounding kill us.
Whats not to like about that?
On top of that, his rebounding also effects the blazers. When he gets six or more rebounds a game, we win(7-0). When he gets less than six a game, we lose(0-4).
So, shouldn’t we put in the player who consistently rebounds at a much greater rate?

When I pointed out Juwans rebounding, my objective was to point out how easy it is to manipulate stats to show what you want. When it comes straight down to it, sometimes you just have to trust what you see. I see Juwan contributing more than Pendy over the last 10 games, eventhough I love me some Penderbeast.

It’s no worse a major than some others already available.

You got it.
I’m very surprised a university hasn’t attempted to offer this. It would be the first major for which coaches would actively encourage their players to get A’s in their daytime classes.
Bill Simmons posted this list last year during the MVP column
Think of all the under-25 guys we watched over the past two decades get thrust into a “You’re a little young for this, but you’re our franchise player, so um, how ’bout you be our leader?” and flounder miserably. We are talking about DOZENS of guys, a few of whom had more talent than Roy, but only five rose to the challenge without veteran help: KG, Chris Paul, LeBron, Wade and Roy. That’s the complete list. (Unless I forgot someone. Which I’m sure I did.) To Roy’s credit, some believe Portland is THE playoff sleeper and it’s mainly because he’s turned into such a killer closer. Stay tuned.
3 out of 5 players stayed in college at least two years, and the two high schoolers are one of a kind players. Even Kobe had to spend a few years getting ‘seasoning’ before he was good.

Quick has a story too
Roy said his right hamstring has never really recovered from last season, and was aggravated on Jan. 2 against Golden State. Since then, he has played through the soreness, which turns to tightness at the end of games. On several occasions this month, Roy in the fourth quarter has needed to be stretched by assistant athletic trainer Geoff Clark.
