Putting Junk Behind You Drawer - 10.20.2010

PrintSo I don't think this is working out... but it's not you; it's me...
Word of the Junk: misanthropes
The daily Junk Drawer (JD) fanpost is the place for true off-topic conversation and people's random thoughts. Its purpose was simple from its infancy; a place where people could come and chat about all of the "whatevers" that didn't fit with the rest of the site and even be loose in terms of byplay and humor. The goal was to foster community...to let people who wanted to get to know each other outside of what they could discern from the strictly basketball posts. We've had happy JD's, sad ones, drawers that looked like a sharing circle, drawers that resembled open mic night at the comedy club... and people have really become a family here.
So if you have a one-off thought, consider posting it here. Everyone else is doing the same, so you will find the JD an eclectic place where you might read something interesting, pointless, profound, or just funny within a few moments. The rules about importance and significance of the topic are suspended in each JD but keep some of these basic rules in mind:
- Be mindful that every image posted slows down the JD, so use discretion in how many you post (you can also link to images you want to share so that they will not overwhelm the JD). When you do post images, put something in the subject line of the comment so that the image can be minimized.
- Ad hominem attacks and swearing will never be tolerated
- Remember everything you write is visible publicly
- Don't use the JD call out or talk about users from other BEdge threads.
As you try and navigate through the junk drawer, remember that you can use 'Z' on your keypad to mark a comment as read and move to the next one and hitting shift-A will mark all comments as read.
Junk because you were going to anyways, h8rs. But remember that when things seem bad they are never as bad as they seem. Like, have you noticed how today's date is 1020 2010? Noticing the small things is one of the keys to a good life and a good junk. And remember, the NBA season is less than a week away.

That's tough.
Although I’m unemployed myself, it’s not too bad due to family circumstances allowing me a certain set of responsibilities that’s coupled with room and board. For most people, however, being unemployed is a drag and makes life difficult, which can be a rough go.

Poor baby ...
To illustrate that sometimes unpleasant interaction, James took the unusual step of retweeting some hateful Twitter messages to his 900,000 followers on Tuesday afternoon. On Wednesday, the Miami Heat star said he did it to show people what he deals with on a daily basis.
“I just want you guys to see it also,” James said after the Heat’s practice Wednesday afternoon. “To see what type of words that are said toward me and towards us as professional athletes. Everybody thinks it is a bed of roses and it’s not.”

Netflix released 3Q numbers today.
“In fact, by every measure, we are now primarily a streaming company that also offers DVD-by-mail," said Reed Hastings, Netflix co-founder and CEO.
hopefully that encourages them to put newer movies out to steam.
I’m streaming kid shows right now for my daughter. And I’ve had the same two dvds for about a month now. And one of them I haven’t even watched yet.

They don't need encouragement... from what I hear, they're moving as fast as the studios let them
On Monday Nov 1, they’ll have Alice in Wonderland available. That’s a fairly quick turnaround.
Recently saw a nice talk by a Wired editor that Netflix just caught the right moment when DVD players got 20% household penetration and prices dropped below $100 and DVD manufacturing cost little
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
There was definitely some luck involved along with the ingenuity.
It was also very smart to not include the words delivery or mail in their company name. They were very forward thinking.
I think Hastings calculated on that, along with DVDs being much cheaper to ship than VHS enabling his business model
Amazon bought a company named Lovefilm. Always feels like I’m getting erotic movies in the mail.

Sources tell me the Blazers will waive training camp invites Raymond Sykes and Steven Hill as early as today.
Source tells me the Blazers are considering “a couple different” options with Patty, at least one of which involves keeping him

If they waive Pendy to keep Patty that would be a bit odd, but another sign PA loves himself some flashy little players
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
There definitely is some weirdness in their attachment to Patty
Either both KP and Cho are a big fan of his, or someone above them is. So you’ve made a reasonable assumption.
Perhaps PA is concerned that he’d lose out on the next Aaron Brooks?
Suffice it to say, it's Paul Allen who bankrolls this operation.
It’s his baby.
"Some things you can't unsee, bro." (The League)
Oh absolutely.
If he wants the player, they’ll make it happen somehow. We all accept to some extent that we’re living inside a small part of PA’s world.
lol small... we just spectators and cheer him on....

"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
Not like that
I’m sure there is a couple of teams interested in him. If he has some leverage value then it should be used while it is still high. I don’t think he would be signed to be traded alone. He’d be part of a package.

There are dual core 1.5Ghz phones on the horizon, and triple-core may be on the way. With the triple core, there would be two fast cores that can be shut down, and one slower core that will stay on at all times and would actively load balance the other two cores, so the phone is immediately responsive to any needs.
awesome.

The company making it agrees, since it's in the top 3 most popular apps all the time
A Japanese company recently bought ngmoco which makes WeRule and similar titles for the iPhone for $400 million. Nice and fast cash out for their venture capitalists, who only put up a $100 million fund for ALL app developers they funded about 2 years ago.

Interesting. The link worked. Are these to be installed and wired up by me (or a professional)?
Or are they already set up to be plugged in?
They have a transformer that plugs right into a normal socket so they are much easier than the old style low voltage stuff which required a hard wired transformer.
They are touch activated and you have a choice of lighting color, including one that mimics incandescent bulbs. The wire that goes from the wall wart to the light is very thin, and you could possibly run it in behind some base board if you have it.

If you have cable and order NBA League Pass
Do you go through In Demand, or call the cable company directly?
And if so, have you tried enabling NBA LP BB afterward to any success?
That's what I did last year, and NBA LP BB told me I never signed up
I’m debating if I should try the opposite this year. It took me more than a month to get LP BB fixed.

so I grabbed Heath Miller on waivers last night. I could have gotten Watson though and didn’t and he is gone

thanks

lololol. grab I dropped him earlier in the season for Dustin Keller. and some people in the JD called me stupid for it.

I got lucky and traded for Dustin Keller because he was the other team’s BPA, and a week later finley went out for the year

It's true, my v key doesn't work properly
I thought you dropped Witten?
Regardless, an injury doesn’t address the issue. Either player could’ve gotten hurt.
haha, I’m stupid. I think it was Witten I dropped. lulz. Even so, Keller has been better for me than whomever I dropped.
Go Blazers! Secure the Win!
doesn't matter.
Witten’s been good since you dropped him, likely better than someone else on your roster. So you could’ve platooned them, or traded one for value.
I've rotated trough Witten, Lewis, Moeaki, and Witten again
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
he’s still a free agent in that league, and he still hasn’t been very good.
Go Blazers! Secure the Win!
he had a great week two weeks ago and got 14 points, but he’s been average 5 points a week. Keller, except one crappy week, has been pretty high scoring. I could pick him up this week if I wanted to for Keller’s bye, but I picked up Benjamin Watson instead ‘cause I don’t want to root for Witten to score on the Giants
Go Blazers! Secure the Win!
I think the difference is mindset
I see targets as really important. Keller’s production has largely come from TDs, and as we’ve seen the last two weeks, they’re far from a guarantee. Witten is still getting a lot of looks in the offense, which I like. Now, saying that, I have Keller and I hope that he’ll continue to score TDs.

I also despise the "lean in for a free foul" move, and the "yell at the refs while the players go play D" move.
Even when blazers do it. I’d be more than happy if the first two were banned (the last one was this offseason).
well, the “yell at the refs while the player go play D” move doesn’t help win games. the other two can.
MPOTCP>PGOTF
If the player didn't think it helped them win games, they wouldn't do it.
The other two just have immediate gratification.
I used to argue with umpires even in little league, and I didn’t think it helped win the game. Its just a reaction a lot of players have.

I think that in the NBA, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
The coaches and stars know that complaining gets them better calls down the line.
I don't know if comparing an amateur baseball game to the NBA is fair
Ask Tim Duncan and Phil Jackson think lobbying the refs is helpful.
I guarantee they’ll say “no”. :)
Has a ref ever said "oh you are right, I take back that call"?
Players aren’t stupid, just frustrated and unfocused.
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
As I said above, it's not about immediate gratification.
It’s about a long term practice to make sure the refs are seeing your point of view.
And of course, I don’t like it either. But it can be argued that it’s effective.
I'm sure eventually it wears on them though
In which case you either get it better cos they don’t wanna deal with you or much worse as revenge.

it's definitely hard to understand the strategy at first.
at least it was for me.
One key thing I’d note is that it’s a lot easier for a hitter to hit an opposite-throwing pitcher. So righties hit lefties, and lefties hit righties. That’s why they bring in a left-handed reliever to face a right-handed hitter, and vice versa.
Wow.
So I mentioned this a while back: I’m watching a TV series on Netflix, and out of nowhere one episode will have a missing dialogue track, so you can’t hear voices.
They finally fixed them… all but one. I finally decided to have some fun with it, checking at least once a day (which dings them to pay for the whole episode), and clicking “report problem” afterward. Still, over a week later, no fix.
And today? Instead of fixing it, they switch that one episode to “DVD only” and left it at that.
wow, that’s lame. what tv show? miley cyrus? and you were too embarrassed to say?

I haven't said because I have a rule that when I'm watching a show, I won't say the title, for fear of spoilers appearing. :)
I did the same thing with BSG last year. I will talk about the show when I catch up. It’s a throwaway show, but a fun one so far. But it has all kinds twists (including a really big one coming up) so I’m keeping quiet.
ooh okay, that’s a valid reason. That’s a very annoying way for Netflix to handle it though. I hate the “only on dvd” thing a lot.

It looks like they do indeed source from higher quality to avoid double-encoding off DVD sources:
Our best sources are electronically delivered mezzanine files, or high quality D5 tapes, and the highest bitrate encodes of these sources really look as good or better than DVDs. Digibeta tape sources can also generate good encodes, but some sources just are not as good, regardless of the bitrate used for encoding. We also encode from DV tape and even on occasion from DVDs. We get HD sources for many titles, even if we only have the rights to stream SD. The HD sources permit a better SD encode than working from SD soures.
Nice thanks

fbb tends to place a high value on the 3 ball, plus the gargantuan difference in pace is a huge edge in Curry’s favor.
fbb underrates Roy and overrates Curry relative to actual value in winning NBA games.

Curry is strong in threes, FT%, assists, points, and steals. He hits all of the “good PG stats” that you want in fantasy.

There’ll be some serious reaches and waiver fury early in the season.
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
yep
the value at 1/36 is way better than 18/19 though, especially in FBB. Having LeBron, Durant, Paul in such a big league is a MONSTER advantage.
Depends a bit on your strategy
The short list includes Wade, Kobe, Dirk, Deron, and Dwight Howard
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
I think Yahoo gets it right with Wade and Dirk.
Wade’s a maniac because he gets blocks and steals from the guard spot.
He'll maybe get fewer attempts, but also easier shots where LeBron or Bosh create space for him
Bosh is likely going too high in a number of leagues, since he doesn’t block shots and his points will decline
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
he'll definitely have lower raw stats
but he’ll get blocks, steals, rebounds, assists, and points, along with some threes, and FT/FG that don’t hurt you.
The decline in usage will end up in more threes and better FT%, so that might make up for the drop in points.
I was wondering if Wade's assists will go up
But it’s hard to say. He’ll probably have the ball in his hands less.
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.

the white macbooks from back in late 07, early 08 had cracks that would develop on them. just a design flaw. so they fix it for free as long as you have on with a serial number from then.
they pretty much replaced everything under the case. new touchpad, keyboard, and whatever goes around those and the screen.

He'll turn it over a TON
but I believe in his defense and he’s uncatchable in transition. His speed really is surprising to see.

The guy will score in bunches, however, as well as dish a fair amount of assists.

I don't think he's a good real player
he was good fantasy-wise for the first half of the year, but fell out of favor with the coaching staff and killed us.
His efficiency stats are awesome, but he sucks at defense whenever I watch him. I dunno.
If you want someone to bounce ideas off of, I don't mind co-managing again

yeah…and Strong asked him how he felt about the Blazers looking for another big man. AWKWARD PAUSE…he said he felt he earned a spot on the team last year and in training camp. He went on to say, he didn’t do this to himself, it just happened and he believes if he works hard he can be back in 6 to 8 months.
wake me in 2011
That's got to be tough on him personally, but business is business.
"Some things you can't unsee, bro." (The League)
ugh, he's certainly got some points. From a business perspective though this really gets tricky.
Do you keep a guy who can’t give you anything this year and holds you back from doing anything to shore up his position just because he’s a good “character” guy? On the other hand he will still get paid right? And get paid quite a bit more than the average American who I believe earns around $46,000 per year. Also even if he’s released that won’t preclude him from earning a spot on another team or even the Trailblazers once again, and really he’s a guy who wouldn’t have earned such a spot if it weren’t for all the injuries the team had last year. So many sides to look at, I haven’t come to an easy decision myself about the whole thing, and my decision doesn’t have any impact. Would not like to be management on that one.

There is quite a bit of art to it, and a lot of finesse to do the really good stuff. I’m still in awe of good baguettes.

I've tried to make them, but pro bakeries have special ovens that really help with the whole thing.
They use steam ovens which you can mimic at home, but it’s not quite the same. Also making em takes at least 24 hours and it’s some of the most delicate dough I’ve ever seen. Also the flour you use really has a lot to do with the way the bread turns out, not just the type of flour but the technique with how it’s processed, where it’s produced and the fineness to which it’s milled.

I felt more comfortable this year, despite not being in the interface
I tried to join, but it considered the draft active after the order was set, and I had to wait until the end to join as co-manager.
we'll be strong in blocks, steals, threes, rebounds, TO
average in FT and FG, bad in points and assists.

Switching weekly, 9 stat categories, and results carry over
So if you win your matchup 5 to 4, you don’t get one point but it carries over as 5 wins 4 losses for the rest of the season. Then gets added up. I think division winners automatically qualify for playoffs and then it gets filled up.

yes, this is true. it’s literary "criticism’ writing. I’m supposed to read stuff and summarize the main ideas. for the 3 I don’t have the materials for, that is. the 4th one is just writing a response to the play I saw last Thursday, which will be hard because I really hated it.

I wonder if MLB baseball could work in Omaha, NE.
It couldn’t be any worse than the disaster of poor fan support occurring right now in Tampa Bay, FL.
The only issue is TD Ameritrade Park isn’t being built to fit a larger capacity, as that’d’ve been the smart move if the objective was to someday bring a professional sports team to a small, yet potentially viable market. Heck, if football has worked this long in Green Bay, then baseball could work in Omaha.

Not bad for autodraft, but have to balance it a bit. Let’s see who’s interested in trades…
My team
Russell Westbrook
Gilbert Arenas
Rashard Lewis
Al Harrington
Dwight Howard
Andrew Bogut
J.R. Smith
Ben Gordon
Marvin Williams
Spencer Hawes
Ersan Ilyasova
I mean, they’re all starting level players. I always say “forget about it” with turnovers, and my FTs will be rough with Dwight, so I hope Ben Gordon is playing a lot and the others can help too.
#52
Are there more good players in the NBA now?
Last year, the last 3 rounds seemed like it was full of the dregs… this year, I took Ilyasova last, but there were other good dudes too.
#52
Grrr
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
Don't like the Arenas, Lewis and Smith picks but I guess those three could single handedly win you 3's in a given week.
Love getting Gordon, Hawes and Ilyasova (assuming you got them in pretty late rounds). Marvin Williams could end up being a good pick depending on how Atlanta use him.
I got all 6 kinda late... especially Ben Gordon, who I wondered if he was injured and I just didn't know it
He was on the board a long time, especially since he’s on a bad team with nobody and he will hopefully be healthy.
Arenas is a wild card who can give big time production… he’ll get steals, 3s, FTs…
Lewis is 3s obviously, and the random game he gives more.
JR Smith I wasn’t crazy about either… I was at a friends house and distracted the whole draft, and it was my turn and I didn’t realize it so I got a dude I’ve had before. He won’t ever break out fully, but he’ll get a lot of different stats and have huge nights.
#52
I'm guessing no one likes Gordon cos he was hurt/sucked last year and is playing with Stuckey/Hamilton/Bynum
I think he will be a damn good fantasy player this year. Probably not for me though. Still haven’t got my strategy set yet though.
I prolly got too many 3s now
Maybe.
Lemme check my draft order… drafting #9 in a 20 team league sucked, because it took so long between picks. I think I took Westbrook second, since he gets a lot of assists and everything (but a bad percentage and turnovers).
#52
Here is my draft order
1. (9) Dwight Howard C
2. (28) Russell Westbrook PG
3. (45) Andrew Bogut C
4. (64) Gilbert Arenas PG,SG
5. (81) Rashard Lewis SF,PF
6. (100) Al Harrington PF,C
7. (117) J.R. Smith SG,SF
8. (136) Ben Gordon SG
9. (153) Marvin Williams SF,PF
10. (172) Spencer Hawes C
11. (189) Ersan Ilyasova SF,PF
Arenas looks high, but ya gotta consider how many teams there are of course.
#52
A good center rotation, with a few scorers, and then some pick ups who just gimme whatever stat I find I need most
Has been my recipe in the past. I didn’t win the JD league last year, though. I won other leagues 2 years in a row, but they were mostly dummies.
#52
Dwight Howard might only be the true stretch
Since his FT% and turnovers might knock him out of the top 10 for the entire NBA.
I think the rest of my players have a good chance to finish above or at where I drafted them (if Arenas is healthy, he should be at least #64 in fantasy).
#52
Was it that bad?
I remember it wasn’t top 10 for sure… but what he does well, he dominates, and I always just boot turnovers anyways. His FTs will hurt though.
#52
At least you always had time between picks
On the ends, we had crazy long waits, then just a couple minutes to figure out the next pick.
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
I think it was harder to do two in a row with Cloudy and me yelling at each other
No, Cloudy, DO NOT PICK GORDO IN THE FIRST ROUND!
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.

It's hard for me to look at teams and figure out what's good
I can decide if it would make a good regular team, but it’s harder to glance and know how they’d do in all the categories.
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
damn we both totally let him slip
You have an excuse as you were autodrafting.
"You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style."
He would have been an appropriate addition to Tin and my's team.
So would Josh Howard.
"You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style."
I reached a bit with Holiday and Teague in the autodraft, but i think they’ll have good seasons. The thing is I only have like 1 big man. Beasley and Villanueva are not exactly rebounding PFs.
Arenas is a good pickup at 64. I like Lewis at 81. Think he should rebound from last season.
Bibby is crappy and Teague should get some of his minutes would be my guess
Jordan Crawford might take some of those too though so I don’t quite see the point either.
Yeah, I got a lot of bigs
That’s another drafting strategy, since people tend to not have a lot of good bigs. Then I can trade one, or just reap the benefits.
#52

I honestly was a little worried again this year cause I didn’t look at any rankings and didn’t know any rooks that might be good picks.

I used to go by tominhawaii. My real name is still Tom.
Were you drafting second?
Lots of guys there who have been so-so but have the opportunity to get big minutes/stats this year. I like that. Not the best team of the bunch on paper though.
I don't know
I did autodraft.

It looks pretty decent to me
Better than your team last year, fo sho!
Nene has been a fantasy stud, with his FG% and all round game. Bynum, if healthy, produces, and CP3 is amazing if healthy.
#52
I don't think Prince will do much fantasy wise
And ya might find someone better than Ridnour on waivers. I ain’t sure how much Brewer will play, but he’s good for at least a steal and won’t take a lot of bad shots.
#52
I agree
Lotsa 3s from each, Jamison rebounds… I have a feeling Jamison will be hurt more than usual because the season is really for nothing, so minor injuries become injuries a vet will sit out for… and Bargs will have some awful 2 for 14 shooting nights.
But it won’t totally kill the team, and his versatility is nice for a team.
#52
And him being the focal point
Means just more numbers… though I doubt it’ll be efficient (but, oh well).

Meh

If I have him then Brandon adjusts or is traded
Thats probably not the reality for the Blazers though. They would have to work it out…..both are intelligent and want to win so they get it sorted.
I just wanted to see if it would work
It did.
Roy and Paul together would be magical every night. Angels would sing, puppies would dance, and kittens would wet themselves with delight.

Look above
Not real people. Can’t be if they don’t want CP3 (which is not the same as not wanting to give up Greg for him just in case anyone was gonna go there).
"Ghosts Have Shadows, Too"
Wayne the Ghost quietly closes the front door behind him, and silently stares at his ghost wife, Esmerelda, washing the dishes. Home early from work, he thinks she doesn’t realize he is there, and he just watches…
He wants to reach out to her… but he can’t. He doesn’t know what to say.
Esmerelda the Ghost hears the front door click, and the familiar float of her husband is a sound she has heard countless times before… but for reasons she can’t quite explain, she doesn’t turn to acknowledge him. She pretends to not know he is home, feeling his dead stare from behind.
She continues to wash the dishes.

That's very sad
Especially the picture of them, when they were so happy and in love. I hope their communication improves, and that they find happiness with each other again.
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
Haha, I really ain't
Just because I think people should end useless relationships while young, so they can move on to BETTER ones, don’t make me depressing!
Staying in lame relationships is what is depressing… you’re married and got a good one, but most don’t got a good one and should go and find a good one and not stay with a lame one. Dig?
#52
I getcha
But you do seem quick to label a relationship a lame duck when someone gripes in the JD. I agree in principle but gotta be careful you don’t assume a relationship is lame at the first sign of difficulty. There is a lot that goes into a relationship and it ain’t all fun is all I’m saying.
Plus this cartoon is just so sad!
I did that with GB because he has expressed such sentiments over a long period of time
I remember you not liking that, but he wasn’t happy and hadn’t been for a while.
Every relationship has problems… staying in one for no reason other than you’ve been together is silly. That happens a LOT, me included. There are normal problems, and then there are ones that pretty much mean the entire relationship is flawed.
I’ve had plenty of loooong relationships, with mixed results. Relationships are perfectly good and I always support them. But if someone is sticking around out of habit or they don’t even really like the person… I say, end it!
#52
And because it seems obvious
I was of this opinion before my own personal relationship problems.
#52
Well I'm screwed then!
Didn’t do a whole bunch of dating before I was 18….or at least it was veeeery informal ; )
I know
Just trying to bring some levity. I think it totally depends on the person and generally hate arguments that suggest you shouldn’t do things till an arbitrary age or until you have had x number of previous experiences to base your decision on. Not that that’s your bag at all, I just tend to react/not be able to keep my mouth shut when I see stuff of this nature.
Just so you know, I wasn't really talking about the GB thing
I didn’t know you weighed in on that TBH and I was fairly out of the loop anyway. There have been a couple of times I’ve just heard you say something like ’you’re young, just get rid of him/her’ in response to an ‘ugh, my bf/gf is so annoying when they do x/because of [insert personality trait]’ type comment. I agree people need to get out of toxic or boring relationships sooner because its just a waste of your life but when people have a whine and a moan it doesn’t always mean they’re unhappy or don’t like the person they’re with.
That’s my 2 cents – I think you are doing a good service just so long as it’s aimed at the right people.
I doubt I've done that to anyone here where it wasn't correct.
I mean, who has relationships they’ve talked about here?
Porgy? GB? The one dude who was just buying a ring to shut his GF up? I mean…
I don’t think I ever took normal griping and turned it into “oh dump that dude/skirt”.
#52
Porgy is one where everyone over-reacted a bit
I dunno dude, I probably don’t have the experience like you or GB to really talk about relationships. The comment up there probably comes off preachy and I’m sorry for that. Just seems like you don’t really think young people should get tied down, which isn’t always true IMO.
As I said, its only a couple of comments so I’m not saying you’re a constant downer or anything (you’re the ray of sunshine around this place!) and I certainly don’t have heaps of examples. More of a feeling based on limited sample size I guess.
I think I am very supportive of everyone's real relationships, and will be there for my pals
But my perception may be incorrect.
I think the right young people can definitely be happy for a verrrry long time, and it’s no biggie. Everyone is different. What I don’t like to see, a pet peeve of mine if you will, is when young people are in long relationships with someone who actively makes them unhappy.
And that’s a lot of relationships, sadly. The good ones should be celebrated and encouraged!
My young friends who have gotten engaged/married in the past, ever since my friends started doing that in college… I have always urged them to wait, except for a few instances. Just because there’s no harm in being “sure” with such a big decision.
I still love you MB and I know you got a good thang going!

This one definitely ain't autobiographical
For one, I always do the dishes because I do them best, and nothing like this has ever happened to me. I can just imagine it.

I'm thinking about proposing the following trade to Ark
Mine: Nash and JRich
Ark: Tyreke and Kevin Love
Thoughts?
I don't know if I'd do it if I were him
Love is a fantasy beast. Then again it is Steve Nash.
Its a pretty balanced trade.
If Ark needs assists and especially 3s bad then it might work
problem is Nash and J Rich are at the peak of their value while Evans and Love could both improve quite a bit cause they’re still young. And on the flip side Nash’s age could finally catch up with him.
I wouldn’t do it if I were Ark.
Can I get an Armon?
I think I'm the same
Who knows with Nash though – he’s pretty ageless and might even go back to scoring more with Amare gone.
that increased offensive work load makes me think this will be his last elite season
Can I get an Armon?
Who knows
His commitment to staying in shape in terms of diet and work ethic are best in the league. I say he has a couple left in him and he might go longer than that.
yeah, that’s what I was thinking too regarding Amare, even more for JRich. I was between offering JRich or Gallinari, thought the first would appeal him more.
JRich could have a nice year
Depends on how they integrate Turk though. I definitely don’t think Ark would do it for Gallinari and Nash, but what would I know?
shoulda started with the lower offer and then countered with a slightly better one, but one you can still live with
or an offer you KNOW he wouldn’t take so that a decent offer looks amazing by comparison
Can I get an Armon?
it's hard to decide in a vacuum
Does Ark need 3 point shooters that bad? Can you afford to give up assists? Does he want 2 Suns players?
Personally, I think K. Love will end the year as the best fantasy player out of that bunch. I would do it if I were you and had someone to help with assists.
Can I get an Armon?
the thing is, i’ve drafted 3 more pgs. And need some help on the rebounding front.
And he has DeMarcus, AK, Biedrins, and Okur.
It’s tough to put Nash on the block, but I need a decent big man. Brook Lopez by himself won’t cut it. And i don’t want to punt rebs that much.
Am I having a brain meltdown or is there an AK other than AK47 in the NBA?
You do need another big man, but Ark’s big man combo isn’t that great without K Love. Okur will be out for a while, Cousins will be inconsistent especially early in the year and Biedrins is a nice 4th big but not much else. If Cousins immediately starts destroying fools it could be a different story though…
Can I get an Armon?
since you need boards more than a 20, 5, 5 guy
I would target K love and pick someone besides Evans from his squad to trade for
Can I get an Armon?
i have a soft spot for the guy, had him last year.
yes, i know, i know, FANTASY IS NOT ABOUT EMOTIONS. what can i say? i’m a romantic…
Dang, I just figured I should have studied the injury reports better. Didn't know some guys I took would be out so long.

Mhm, I think I see a pretty creative out-of-the-box option for the first month
After then, it fluctuates a lot anyway on the waiver wire.
Alternative would be to upgrade my guard crops to get more assists.
"Listening to the media only increases your odds of failing at whatever you are doing" - Mark Cuban
Done. I don't like it: Shelden Williams. But with everyone out, he'll start at PF for the Nuggets.
He’s averaging 29 minutes, 9.9 points, 8.8 boards, 1.3 steals, 1.3 blocks in pre-season. I take that.
My guard options were not that great, will observe how this develops the first few weeks.

Also, this Matt Hasselbeck cameo was weird, yet gut-bustingly hilarious due to its randomness.

I see that Deanna Favre is using her husband's amusing indiscretions to shamelessly peddle her new book.
Here’s the story.
This, by the way, is the money quote that caused me to cackle like the soulless heathen I am: “I can tell you that faith, I’m a woman of faith,” Deanna Favre said. “And faith has gotten me through many difficult struggles. It will get me through this one.”
Ugh, maybe it’s just me, but I can’t stand either one of them; they deserve each other. Yet, clods throughout the Midwest — and all across the U.S. — will slobber up this insipid tripe, so more power to the Favre’s marketing machine.

No, but maybe Devin. Though indications point to them putting together just a 2-team deal, or Melo having to wait until next year.

For fantasy’s sake, I really hope Mike Miller makes a speedy recovery.
"You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style."
are there more injuries than usual this preseason? Sure seems like we’re hearing about a lot of them.
the guy who I think was an absolute steal is Hinrich.
Threes, steals, and a lot of minutes to accumulate other raw stats? He’s going to play a lot, judging from the Washington roster.
Hehe, yeah. There's a lot of injuries going around, and the Yahoo tool doesn't have them yet until next week or so.
As a public service, some guys who still should be out a while and aren’t really worth owning and definitely not worth starting yet:
Perkins (February)
West (injured, 10 game suspension)
McGuire (Bobcats)
Boozer (December, though of course he’s quite valuable)
Jamision (knee, questionable for start of season)
Beaubois (foot, November, still in boot)
Andersen (knee, December)
K-Mart (knee, January or later)
Harrington (foot, questionable for start of season)
Jerebko (achilles, could miss most of season)
White (December)
Amundson (December)
Udoh (December)
Rush (5 game suspension)
Bynum (late November)
Hobson (out for season)
Maggette (doubtful for start of season)
Redd (knee, out until at least all-star break)
Flynn (hip, out until at least end of November)
Azubuike (knee, out until at least December)
Childress (questionable for start of season)
Oden, Joel, Pendergraph, duh (one site says Oden out until at least mid-December)
Dalembert (out until at least mid-November. My fail)
Evans (1 game suspension)
Ed Davis (out until at least mid-November)
Okur (questionable for start of season)
Josh Howard (out for start of regular season)

Whenever I try to think up a latin secret message
I always find better sayings on line then I can translate anyway so this is a pretty common Latin quote.
"You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style."
i love'em
brings back memories from HS. It was a mandatory subject in my sophomore year over here. Not anymore though.
Yeah, I loved taking Latin in college.
I’m also pretty far from being able to read it with ease. But I love breaking out my Wheelock’s Latin textbook and testing my ability to remember the declensions or some ish.
"You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style."
It's definitely a truth of life.
And it felt appropriate given the drama we’ve had here lately. Sometimes dumb painful moments are just what people need to grow.
