A New Hero Super Junk 12-17-2010

I was gonna fanpost this a few weeks ago but now that it has expired, it's here in the junk.
This junk was inspired by A New Hero post by Kampeska. I figure after 10000 post on the issue, it's worth a recap in pictures...right?
The daily Junk Drawer (JD) fanpost is the place for true off-topic conversation and people's random thoughts.. with a goal to gossip like a family.
The rules about importance and significance of the topic are suspended in each JD but keep some of these basic rules in mind:
- Photos are awesome.
- Photos attacking other BEdgers, Blazers and NBA players are awesomerrrr.
- I'm sorry 323 for my mass email. I had no idea...My immaturity only lacks the proper pictures.
- Use the JD to ban yourself.
- Tom can do whatever he wants because he finished a marathon.
- Stop hating on BRoy and all our players. Just support the team and have fun.
- Jump off our bandwagon so we can run you over
- Rich Cho is a true mastermind.
- Being intense is the new cool
- This junk is meant for Southern Oregon
As you try and navigate through the junk drawer, remember that you can use 'Z' or 'C/X' to mark a post as read and move on to the next one. Hitting shift-A will mark all comments as read.

also, what happened to tom?

Which would be funny. He was clearly hurting in his last game.
So it’s not surprising they’re sitting him.
If there's any speculation, it'll be about him possibly shutting it down for the season.

Should be an interesting three games.

I still love me some Roy and hope he gets his head straight...
but it will at least be a bit refreshing not worrying about how he will perform on any given night…I’m sure it will help the rest of the guys mental state’s as well because they don’t have to worry about it either.

Whcih is why we can't let them
Unless we really do get a good offer.
His value really can’t go but up honestly.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Amare was damaged goods
Kerr said the best offer he ever got for him was from Golden State for Biedrins and Wright and a pick. Might have been the Curry pick, but still junk.
Yeah, remember how Cleveland apparenlty had a deal
Of Hickson for Amare. Would have been a total steal…
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
That's a heck of a lot more than they got for him though.
Different situation with Brandon though. We’re not in danger of losing him to free agency like amare.

Yup
And of course I would call the Blazers as an opposing GM. Would the Bobcats trade Matt Carroll’s terrible contract packaged with Diop’s terrible contract for Roy? In a heartbeat. Would Cuban trade Stevenson and junk for him? Likely. But is any offer a quality offer?.
I just want Eddy Curry in a blazer uniform ;)

I bet Minnesota is one of them.
They could trade and then claim we traded them an injured player! If they keep doing it, it’s bound to work sometime.
He was even traded for useful players!
If you're not careful, Andre Miller can really sneak up on you
Lon Babby had a lot to do with that.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
I'd only move him for expiring contracts.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
That and future assets, of course.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
I still think that the Indiana Pacers make the most sense, but only if owner Herb Simon is ...
willing to absorb his salary. Of course, I’d like to make it a three-team deal whereby the Portland Trail Blazers retool its roster in the process.

At least it gives us flexibility...
but I don’t think I could stand watching Dunleavy, Foster, and McBob while they are here…

The one team that could really use Brandon Roy is Milwaukee, as it plays slow and ...
is badly in need of an offensive lift. Under Scott Skiles, the Bucks are also good enough on defense to hide Roy’s poor play on that end of the court.

Milwaukee is a small-market city that could use an offensive-minded star ...
player, too, which’d suit Brandon Roy’s needs. Scott Skiles is also a master of masking bad defensive players, while the Bucks have got Bogut anchoring the middle to go along with good coaching.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
Philly likes that deal!
Gives them some great flexibility. I like Iggy but I’m not willing to give up on Batum just yet. But he is still probably the most tradeable ‘asset’.
#20
I don't see any point in selling Roy when his value is so low
You really only do this if you think Brandon will never be any better than he’s been recently. I’d rather gamble that he improves at least moderately.

Adam Carolla: What has 5 balls and rapes Mexicans?

He has some pretty good jokes in his book, most of which can’t be posted on BE for use of the zach word in various combinations. I like zachstick. He also makes a pretty good point that most people aren’t racists, they are just donkeys but a minority would naturally perceive them as a racist if they get mistreated all the time. I think listening to it is definitely funnier than reading it. He also has a nice monotone voice, so I’ve fallen asleep to it already twice and woke up when 20 more chapters were finished (in audio form it’s broken down to about 55 tracks).

Yep. They should be favored in all three, but at least two are losable
And Minn isn’t a guarantee, just a likely win. Unless Martell goes for 24 in the third.

But then boo him as he fouls out (this is what happened when Drexler came back, I was at that game).

Day 1: My knee hurts
Day 2: My knee is great. Stop limiting my minutes.
Day 3: My knee is sore, but I would play much better with a fast PG who can make shots.
Day 4: I had a great game
Day 5: I had a crappy game
Day 6: I apologize for earlier comments about my teammates. My knee is fine.
Day 7: I think I need some rest, my knee is bothering me

"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
DRE DAY
what day did he lose the streak… it should go down as Dre Day!
The tensions are so high because the stakes are so low!
hmm did any other important things happen on that day in history
…

don’t think so. Dre’s day it is. In infamy.

I could see him quitting before he got fired
which I never would’ve thought a month ago. His job just keeps getting harder and more thankless, and no matter what we think of him, he’s got enough of a reputation to be on most HC shortlists.

That's occurred to me, but he's not the quitting type
Loyal to a fault, in fact. But I’ve felt even since pre-season that he wouldn’t sign another contract here, even if the season went well.
Wiggada Wiggada Zers!
He won't quit for financial reasons.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
Pshhh.
People quit their jobs all the time even though it’s a bad move financially — especially if it’s only going to be a short-term hit. If he was worried about financial security, he would’ve pushed for a long-term contract, instead of doing just the opposite.
Wiggada Wiggada Zers!
That's a fair point.

One of the brightest galaxies in planet Earth’s sky and similar in size to the Milky Way, big, beautiful spiral M81 lies 11.8 million light-years away in the northern constellation Ursa Major. This deep image of the region reveals details in the bright yellow core, but at the same time follows fainter features along the galaxy’s gorgeous blue spiral arms and sweeping dust lanes. It also follows the expansive, arcing feature, known as Arp’s loop, that seems to rise from the galaxy’s disk at the right. Studied in the 1960s, Arp’s loop has been thought to be a tidal tail, material pulled out of M81 by gravitational interaction with its large neighboring galaxy M82. But a recent investigation demonstrates that much of Arp’s loop likely lies within our own galaxy. The loop’s colors in visible and infrared light match the colors of pervasive clouds of dust, relatively unexplored galactic cirrus only a few hundred light-years above the plane of the Milky Way. Along with the Milky Way’s stars, the dust clouds lie in the foreground of this remarkable view. M81’s dwarf companion galaxy, Holmberg IX, can be seen just above and left of the large spiral. On the sky, this image spans about 0.5 degrees, about the size of the Full Moon.

New main page post up by Ben linking to a Ken Berger rumor about a Miller for Gortat trade.
Always intense.
That's not a bad deal, if we could somehow acquire a starting PG
I suggested deals for Gortat last year, and it might have also been one with Miller where we got Nelson back in the package too.
Also, I bet Jerryd is pissed when we trade Dre away ;)
A three-way trade with Washington.

Kirk Hinrich to Marcin Gortat on the high pick-and-roll all game long.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
the Wizards will be surprised to find out that Hinrich running a pick and roll with an above average center is a really, really great play.

How is JaVale McGee at setting screens and rolling to the basket?
I must admit I don’t pay much attention to McGee.

It's not a halfcourt pick-and-roll play, but here's a transition bucket between them.

"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
I'm just funnin
I’m already on the record not really liking Hinrich, and the recent Roy news makes me like him even less.
i keep dancing on my own
Yeah, he's certainly not a pure point guard.
Yet, since he’s only under contract for $8 million next season, it’s what I’d call a low-risk/medium-reward move.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
that makes some sense
and I think we agree on the 2012 offseason as the one to target when teams will be having firesales to get in compliance with the new CBA, and the draft will probably be much better.
i keep dancing on my own
so from that perspective, Hinrich’s contract expiring makes sense, though maybe you’d rather just have the money.
i keep dancing on my own
Even if Portland is nothing but a one-and-done team for the next ...
two seasons, Kirk Hinrich as a stopgap 1 while the franchise figures out the best course of action heading into the long-term future is fine by me.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
More speculation than rumor actually. He does say rival league executives think Miller would be an ideal fit for Orlando.
One interesting little tidbit from the article-
According to one source, Roy’s contract is insured against injuries to either knee. That’s an insurance policy the Blazers never want to have to dust off. Better to put the ball in their franchise player’s hands and see what happens. What have they got to lose?

I don't think it is
It says the final year would get guaranteed (among other possible criteria) “if the team obtains a permanent total disability insurance policy of at least $17,000,000 from an insurance company with an AM Best financial strength rating of A- or better” according to Mark Deeks. That’s a sign they currently don’t have such an insurance.
Also it has a $4 million respectively 15% trade kicker (whichever is less). Put that on top of a max contract attached to Roy in his current state, and you have a problem.
Are you pulling that from Shamsports?
His summary seemed a little abbreviated.
Wiggada Wiggada Zers!
Yup, that's his site. Also writes for NYT blog and knows a lot of contracts.
Can’t know for sure since the NBA and their insurance provider (used to be AIG, don’t know now) don’t release the list of the excluded players, but sounds like the Blazers currently don’t have at least Roy’s final year covered. And this is way too detailed to make it up as “I heard it as a rumor”.
Agree on the detail, etc. Just think it only applies to final year.
Wonder if Storyteller has any more insight.

Haha, no. Except for occasionally preventing that any hair tries to start a unibrow campaign.
I wish they were straighter occasionally. As a bonus content, here is one question Timbo took out in the editing. I would like to point out that “Gortat” gets mentioned:
Would you like to take this opportunity to instruct Mike Rice on the correct pronunciation of Dirk’s last name?
Like it’s written :-) The Mavs media guide says "Na-VIT-skee". I would rather say "No-wit-ski" (with the o more like in north than in no). And the i in Dirk is rather long, a bit like in deer or diesel. Nowitzki is really rather a Polish name than a typically German one, though names with that ending are fairly common especially in a certain region where Polish immigrants worked in the mining industry. Two current soccer national team players have similar names. I’m sure Gortat could pronounce it well.
wait, are you not pronouncing the “W” as a “V”?
—Section 323, whose last night just might have three Polish Ws in it.
hahaha

At least you are not Ms. Szczerbiak or Ms. Szczypka (once knew someone with that name).
It’s a v sound, but in German a lot of words (starting) with v sound more like f. So to me it looked odd. And it’s pronounced just like wit. And nobody says Nah – witzki.
I’ve heard his name said often by German TV announcers, but I’m no linguist. You could also say it’s pronounced with a v like in vitamin, but not an f like in fit.
Heck, Timbo was right to take this out. I’m not great at phonetics.

What is being said about the Mossad throwing the deadly shark [into the Red Sea] to hit tourism is not out of the question"
- Mohamed Abdul Fadil Shousha, governor of Egypt’s South Sinai Province, claiming the Israeli intelligence agency could be behind a series of shark attacks
Yup, no ocean park, zoo, aquarium or what have you can successfully hold big sharks in captivity, but the Mossad can.
This is fantastic

MAC Sporting Goods in Montgomery, Ala., on Thursday added to its selection an unusual item: a T-shirt for the Oregon Ducks, who play home games 2,600 miles away.
Oregon, of course, plays the Alabama-archrival Tigers on Jan. 10 in the BCS championship.
Peggy McLendon Lanier, an Alabama graduate and store owner with her father and brother, said the Oregon shirts are mainly for fun.
"We wanted to order some anyway, but we’ve had a lot of requests," Lanier said. "My roommate from college is in Pensacola, (Fla.), and that’s what she’s getting for Christmas from me."
The shirts are selling well, Lanier said, which is notable because the store is closer to Auburn, Ala., at about 60 miles away, than to Tuscaloosa, 135 miles.
"We like Oregon," Lanier said. "Even here, we know about Ducks."

they make good tempeh. Also some sausage sort of products which I think taste fine, but I don’t ever buy them.
I don't know how to react to that.
At first I was gonna say “that’s amazing.” But it’s not really amazing, it’s amusing, but saying “that’s amusing” seemed weird and sarcastic, as did “that’s cute”; neither really communicated just how amused I really was by the giblets. Then I thought about it a little more and I thought “that’s stupid” because it’s like some tofurkey manufacturer just thought way too hard about how to get cute with the whole idea, but then I realized I was being cynical because, I mean, c’mon, jesus christ you’re buying a tofurkey, the manufacturer can get as cute as they please.

Funny sayings from my 3 yr old son this week
- after my 7th grade girls practice: “dad, why are they so bad??? why can’t they shoot?”
- he asked me after dinner, “dad, what do you want for christmas?” me: “nothing, just want to hang out with you and paige.” him: “but dad, we’re not toys. you have to ask for toys for christmas.” me: “uh, you’re getting clothes” him: “noooo way, tell santa to return them for toys”
- his sister: “you’re so naughty, you gonna get a lump of coal” him: “i don’t care…i don’t know what coal is…dad, what is coal?”
- "why doesn’t chuck e cheese talk? why doesn’t micky talk? why does mcdonald look like a clown? why doesn’t he talk? why is goofy a cow?
- “why does this santa look different from that santa we saw?”
- “auntie linda is mean, i think she got me diapers for christmas. i don’t wear diapers. i’m 3. aunti linda can poop in her pants.”

I've heard that "you gonna get a lump of coal" before this year, discussing a guy who wanted the complete Playboy edition from his wife
Is that a common saying?
Yes
It’s what Santa would bring a child who had been naughty that year.
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
yeah, it’s really common.
basically, it came from st. nicholas coming down a chimney to put money into a poor families home

My mom would pretend elves were watching us when it was around X-Mas and we were naughty
She’d go STOP IT RIGHT NOW— ooh, what’s that! Oh my goodness! That elf saw you do that! Look! Look!"
And then we’d run to the window and try to see the elf.
She’d also call Santa on the phone if we were naughty.
One year we got candy coal in our stockings for funsies.

My youngest sister would grab the phone and call Batman if she thought mom and dad were being mean.

that reminds me
My little brother was poking around the fireplace yesterday.
me: “what are you up to?”
“I’m setting a trap for Santa.”
“Alrighty…”
“[big brother], do you know what time he’s coming?”
“I dunno…I’ve never met him.”
“That’s ‘cause you’ve been naughty.”
“Well what are you??”
“Nice. And cute.”
Question: What’s your answer to “does Santa exist?” That conversation might be coming soon.
hahahahhahahah
i’m gonna tell them, Santa is a jerk that has been stealing daddy’s thunder.
but probably next year, i’m gonna have the 5 year old wrap up a gift “from Santa” to her brother and say, Santa is the spirit of giving, and spreading happiness…Those guys dressed in that outfit at the mall is trying to do the same thing, just spreading joy. you can do the same. santa can be anyone…just like anyone can be whatever they want to be.
then she’ll punch me in the face and say, “i knew he was too fat to fit through our fireplace”
3-Time BEdge Pop-A-Shot Champion
that might be a little young
cause, she’ll likely ruin it for her friends, and then you’ll have to answer to their uptight parents.
you think so? she’s already asking questions that make it seem like she knows.
“make sure to put out some oatmeal raisin cookies dad, because i want to eat a couple of them since he won’t eat it all right?”
“Santa at Woodburn didn’t know what Lotso Hugs was…Lets go to that guy in Washington Square”

Of course he does
Turner is a ball dominant 2-guard. Putting him next to a good spot-up shooter/cutter like Batum is a fine idea. Thye would make a good defensive duo as well – more variety on both ends than with Turner and Iggy.
Stay the course
I don’t believe Batum is a better spot up shooter, he just gets less defensive attention and is asked to take easier shots in the Blazers system.
I’m not sure there’s a single thing Batum does better than Iggy.

I'd need synergy to say anything definitively
But I’m pretty confident in saying that Batum is a better 3pt shooter than Iggy. He also has better shot selection, although whether that is role related we don’t know. Love to find out by bringing him to PDX!!

Might not be direct from Cho but putting a couple of proposed deals out there is clever.

My recent laptops have been ruined with McAfee
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
Yeah they're going after Microsoft, but I'm not sure they'll succeed
They’re probably extra mad because Microsoft’s a/v product is better than theirs. Much to my surprise and amazement in some ways.
Back in the days Microsoft had to unbundle the Media Player in the EU. So they might.
But Microsoft is now making it pretty easy to select browsers, anti-virus tools, etc. during installation to prevent anti-trust/anti-competition lawsuits.
Yep. They're not bundling A/V right now, so I suspect there's no real trouble
They can offer any free product they want, and even make it easy to get. Norton is extra upset because they’re offering it through Windows Update, but only if they don’t see active A/V software on the machine during a scan.
Norton is probably the worst-coded security product out there,
and they make a lot of their money by paying OEM’s to put their antivirus on computers (which can then be labeled as having virus protection) only to have the license expire after three months, at which point they’ll tell you you’re in big trouble unless you pay them 50 dollars.
McAfee is also a poorly coded a/v product now.
Microsoft offers a free product that’s much less intrusive, doesn’t slow the machine down, and is 100% free for home users. Norton etc are unsurprisingly upset.
Oh yeah I know F-PROT well. They've done some good work over the years
Their e-mail scanner was the best thing going for a while there.
They may still be great. I just haven't set up an e-mail server in a while.
Come to think of it, I’m overdue for that.

I also sleep well, but I have a case to finish next week and still need to prepare
Currently researching old material, which is kind of boring so I can junk on the side hoping to be mostly finished when the game is on. And I’m not the “I go to bed early and stand up early to finish it” type like e.g. my mother. I need to see progress before I feel good about calling it quits.
yeah i like getting it all done
or practically done before bed, i know i won’t get up early for it, so might as well leave it as ready as possible!
Hope the case turns out well, “ánimo”!
I tried Australian fish and chips
before i tried British… it was awesome and we had like a kilo for 4 aus dollars or something like that… crazy good :)
i am actually thinking about flying over to meet you guys this summer
i just have to see if it meets my budget, and that of my best friend who’s even poorer than me at the moment!
ooh that sounds nice
I have an extra room, and I live about 10 blocks from wesley matthews, but I am not sure what my family would think of that arrangement, plus I don’t think I am adventurous enough for you.
Don’t worry about being poor. ALL of portland is poor at the moment. She’ll fit right in.
we were actually looking into couch surfing :)
our other option is Italy and Greece, but we’ve already been to a lot of northern Italy together, and my friend needs to practice her english!
hey, we practically invented the mexican language
don’t worry about knowing English. Just come here! (not during early june – it rains crazily).
You won’t have a problem finding a place to stay. There are plenty of helpful peopleless couches.
Portland right now seems to be in a good situation. Safe, good food, nature and stuff (hikes in the mountains or walks on a brisk beach, don’t bring your bikini), Powells books, etc.
ah
well. hmmm. Whatever happens, please try to make it in time for the championship parade.
Seattle is a cool town 3 hrs north. Sequoia forest and the northern cali coast is awesome. That ain’t far, by american standards. Plus, there are tons of cool bedgers to stay up all night and philosophize with.
ouch, that migh hurt after a while
Just KIDDING! it was a joke about promiscuity. Get it?

"Roybot can do whatever she wishes on this site. She’s on the V.I.P. lounge list." -Dave
I drove down highway 101 once. It was cool. There were a few boring areas, but the cool stuff like the redwoods, and the coast views are worth it. Plus you might stumble upon some real life humboldt county hippies in a commune. You could couch surf there. Once you get to the SF (Bay Area) maybe you could kick it with a few other bedgers down there.

the guy was in his apartment, the cops were in the hall. they saw the fake gun when the guy cracked the door. they shot from the hall. a neighbor took a picture of the hall after the shooting and saw something like 16 shell casings in the hall.

I think Orlando are petrified of Dwight Shaq/LeBronning them
So they are doing the same thing Cleveland did – panic trades. Arenas makes sense stylistically. If they did a Miller/Przy for Nelson/Gortat trade it would make more sense. Miller/Arenas backcourt kinda works.
Stay the course
I don't know why everyone hates on Jameer.
Jameer is perfectly serviceable. I can’t imagine that Arenas would be better than Vince.
as an Agent Zero fan, I'm glad he's relevant again.
But I don’t see how he makes sense for the Magics.
Not yet. But seems a real possibility to go through tomorrow according to Wizards and Magic bloggers as well as Woj.
Maybe Cho is trying to get into it an re-route Gortat.
I hope it's Joel Przybilla & New Orleans first-rounder to Washington and Marcin Gortat to Portland.

"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
Cos to me an Arenas-Jameer backcourt is a way to get Dwight even more unhappy
He is already complaining about the defense allowing too much penetration. A Gortat/Nelson deal would be great.
Stay the course

some notes
Rather subdued atmosphere at the beginning of the game. I know it’s the Timberpups, but there were still a lot of empty seats and the crowd was even less into it then I expected. They really pumped the music to try to get some energy flowing. Then LaMarcus did what the dj couldn’t do by scoring 12 straight.
Martell got a nice ovation from the crowd, and he acknowledged it. There was a moment when LA checked in between free throws and gave a Timberwolf a hug. I was gonna groan, “why are you fraternizing with the enemy??” Oh. It’s Martell. Awwwwww. ’S all good.
Oh my Rudy. Inside, outside, driving, dishing, DUNKING. Somewhere above — probably Sec 314 ‘cause it’s always them — they got a brief “RU-DY, RU-DY” chant going in the fourth. Probably woulda lasted longer if there wasn’t stoppage right as it picked up. There was also a very loud cheer when the jumbotron showed that Rudy had a new career high. (I was gonna explode when LA hit his career high, but wadayaknow, he ironically doesn’t set a new high because he was too nervous about setting a new high.)
For any who care, Larry Miller was sitting next to Rich Cho who was sitting next to some guy who I don’t think was Paul Allen. I couldn’t tell. All white peeps look alike. Thank you LM and Cho for making identification easy for me.
Can't blame us in the crowd at the start
They have to earn us back a bit after some of those losses.

Two excellent games. I didn’t see the Dallas game but the highlights and the boxscore look great. He was very good tonight. He’s had excellent games before though. On the season, his stats are still the worst of his career. We’ll see if this trend continues.
I really hope it does. I'm wondering if the most recent occurance allows him to step out from the shadow...
May be wishful thinking, but the last couple games we’ve got to see the player all of us have hoped he would become. Won’t take it for granted yet though.
If this continues, I propose we rename the motto for this season, “A New Hope.”

Oh Marty
First, he watched Minnesota drop a close one to Portland after career-nights by LaMarcus Aldridge and Rudy Fernandez. Then after the game, Webster learned his McDonald’s All-American ring was recently sold on e-Bay.
“Oh, man. I know exactly who that was who took it too. I only had a couple people living with me at the time,” an unhappy Webster said.
Standing in the visitor’s locker room at the Rose Garden, Webster talked more about the Blazers than the current struggles of the Timberwolves, who move to 1-15 on the road this season and 6-21 overall. And while it was weird for many to see Webster sporting a Minnesota jersey, he was direct in what he misses most about Rip City.
And it’s not all the injuries.
“The only thing I miss in Portland are the fans. The fans have always been great. The emotions are no different if we were playing any other team on the road, and that’s how I took the approach,” said Webster, who finished with 19 points and 9 rebounds in roughly 30 minutes of play.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
It's nice he said that about the fans, but it does imply he wasn't happy with his role on the team.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
Yeah I don't think the team was happy with his lack of consistency

Porter ugliest and worst sideline reporter in history of Blazers or Ever? Discuss...
Besides they aren’t winning the title this year anyway so by default they avoid the only other definition of "waste" that matters.
—Dave
TP just doesn't bother me as much as he bothers some people.
I don’t think he’s great, but I don’t think we’ve ever had a great sideline reporter.
I don't think people with a lot of talent end up as local sideline reporters
Porter is just filling in time till he can get a basketball ops position in the organisation.
Stay the course
I assume he's basically waiting for another role too
TP’s coaching career hasn’t gone well, but he seems to be very well-regarded as a person inside the organization. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him in another position later.
Wasn't Michelle Beadle a Nets sideline reporter?
I wouldn’t say she’s especially talented, but I think she’s got a fairly charismatic personality.
She does have a good personality.
I’d take her over Jenn Brown or Erin Andrews, too, both on and off TV.

Bayless has excellent offensive numbers during his short time as a Raptor. I expect them to fall somewhat, but stay decent. The team will still suck.
I think they look a lot better with Calderon in there
Also, Andrea Bargnani is not a franchise cornerstone, in case anyone is still wondering.
Stay the course
He has an even worse case of thinking he's better than he is
It wasn’t really a poster either, as Bayless gave up the chase once he elevated

I'll sport a mustache if you do!
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
That'll be lovely
One of my buddies had a brother who got married a couple years ago. The groom brother made all the other brothers (5 or 6 in all) grow staches. It was a class affair.

I know at the very least
When I have kids, we will do a Sears family photo of us all in bad sweaters with dad-style mustaches.

Right now my mustache isn't flesh coloured, but it's too blonde
It needs to fill out. I shouldn’t have shaved my beard off, because now I just have a weak stache and no beard.
#20
It takes the right look for someone to pull off a straight mustache well.
Going with a beard is almost always the better option.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
I've probably mentioned it before
But I shaved off the rest of my beard for Halloween once, just leaving the stache. Most of my friends/coworkers didn’t realize it was my Halloween costume, but they were afraid to say anything and hurt my feelings. I look like such a creep with only a stache.
Somehow my dad managed to do it for most of his adult life. He had something of a Tom Selleck going on, and it really worked.

I was out tonight and no one seemed to notice, except for those I already told I was doing it.
But it just isn’t dark enough yet. Just looks like I didn’t shave well, especially since I don’t use a razor razor for the rest of my face… I stubble everything.
#20
That was one of the nice things about having a goatee for a while
I felt like it allowed a little stubble everywhere, so I just “shaved” with clippers. Then I got even lazier and grew the rest of the beard.

Hey guys, I'm wondering
I was trying to think of good romantic movies… not really rom coms, but actual romantic type movies that I enjoy. I am coming up blank. I need it for research kinda sorta. What are ones you guys enjoy? I am just blanking, I feel like.
#20
I can't think of any off the top of my head that are just romantic movies
And not rom coms. Do you have any examples?
Maybe the Notebook, one of the most horrible movies I’ve ever seen?
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
I'd count the Notebook as a romantic type movie, yeah
That ain’t s rom com…
I am blanking on good examples is part of the problem. I’m trying to think of good non-cheese romantic movies.

I found a list to go through

We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
It’s partly also a rom com, but episodic mixing different stories
You can find fantasy + romance, drama + romance, etc. Just romance is pretty rare.
Anything besides Rom com is what I'm trying to think of
A movie with some funny parts is fine, but not out n’ out rom coms… they are like sitcoms to me usually.
#20
Brokeback Mountain
Pretty Woman (maybe too rom com)
Cruel Intentions
The Cider House Rules
May or may not be strictly romance.
We should bring in more scrub big men; they make good curse fodder.
Mhm, Cider House Rules is a very good movie but I remember more the drama and coming of age elements
Yeah, I don't think of it as being primarily a romance
Very much a coming of age, and one of my favorites.

She only watches movies where someone gets married at the end
That reminds of how funny one of my female Japanese roommates was… we were watching Robocop, and when Robocop and his lady partner were being nice to each other, my roommate got all excited and went ‘OOH, are they going to get married?!?!’ and she looked so happy.
I think ending Robocop with a marriage is the only way that movie could be improved. She wanted every movie to have a wedding.

I thought there was a nice conversation there about fans of different sports and pace/scoring.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
In football, the rule changes now seemingly benefit a high-scoring passing attack (e.g., New England). There are very few run-oriented teams anymore, with the New York Jets being the prime example of a moderately successful one.
In baseball, a ballclub’s offense and pitching are independent of each other — although with position players balance is needed between guys who are good hitters and guys who can field well — thus, the speed of the game doesn’t make an impact on win-loss record.
In basketball, though, teams that rely on the tried-and-true method of running a power-oriented offenes and playing good defense are frequently slow paced. Unlike in football and baseball, playing at a slow pace can often be beneficial to wins and losses for a basketball team. Even a bad team is better off playing slow, as it lowers the amount of possessions per game in the hopes of winning some upsets.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
I'm glad someone else caught that

But I’ve never liked Brooks’ game, so I’m willing to go with it.

But putting up career highs in AST% and my favourite defensive metric likes him quite a lot plus his defensive on/offs are awesome.

2000 vs 2010 by some numbers (from a Time issue looking back at their old reporting and what they did right or wrong)
Price of gas: $1.48 per gallon vs $2.89 per gallon.
National debt: $5.7 trillion vs $13.8 trillion.
Unemployment: 4% vs 9.6%
Average student debt: $16,928 vs $24,000
But at least the average after-tax income has improved for about all income brackets (after inflation)
Stamped letters mailed: 55.1 billion vs 29.8 billion
Gold: $284 vs $1366
Dow Jones: 10,940 points vs 11,178 points
Billionaires: 306 vs 1011
Opium farming in Afghanistan: 82,000 hectares vs 123,000 hectares
Tallest building: 452 m vs 828 m
Terrorism: 423 cases vs 10,999 cases (about half in Iraq and Afghanistan)
Countries to legalize same-sex marriage: 0 vs 10
And so on.
In terms of the reporting, they left out some stories I would like to have seen covered and updated but it’s pretty good.
Weird, with no car!
I am basically stranded in the middle of the ocean.
I got friends who will drive me around, but I hate asking. I feel so annoying. I am getting a car soon, but it’s been weird without one. Plus the bus system sucks here, and I don’t live where there is a subway. I’m too close to the ocean.
OTHERWISE, I work 7 days a week and stay real busy. Plus I proactively keep it pretty street, because that’s where I’m from.
#20
Still no car?
That sucks bruh. Nothin worse than not being able to get around when ya want.

Finding time when I am free and my friends who can drive me to dealerships are free has been tricky.
Plus I had to send my sister some money for her studenty loans.

Buying cars is the sucks. I’m trying to do it atm myself.

So many people trying to make sure you get ripped off while they tell you you're getting a bargain

Yuh
It’s crazy annoying.
Plus i owned my car outright before, no more payments. I can afford a car payment, but it was nice not worrying about it.
Most any car I get will be an upgrade over what I owned, but I’d much rather just have a silly old car and not deal with all of this.

This is true for me
My car ain’t broke but it’s getting ooooooooold and we need a bigger automobile. Trying to so trade ins is impossible too.

Yeah, I go through ads and marvel at the asking price for POS cars/trucks
10 year old cars with 100k+ miles for 10 grand. What?

That’s like 160k kms. 100K your money is about 13-14k here. That is nuts.

Lovely.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
I get not allowing personal attacks, but the word "rude" is arbitrary.
What’s rude to a thin-skinned person is perfectly acceptable to someone who isn’t as uptight.
It doesn’t matter what I think, though, so forget it. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in life, it’s that what I think doesn’t mean squat.
Guess that’s why I’m a misanthrope.
"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."
Well, that was why I added "blatant"
Some small level of rudeness is allowed, especially in the JD. But we’re trying to foster community, and rudeness tends to tear that community down. It’s not a utopia here; we need rules to make sure the conversation flows, and people feel they can comment without reprisal.
That's fair.
Admittedly, it is a fine line.

Now it seems to be a three-team trade is in talks that sends Hedo back to Orlando
