Blown Up Junk - 12-6-2010

So is blowing it up something everyone is looking forward to now?

The daily Junk Drawer (JD) fanpost is the place for true off-topic conversation and people's random thoughts.. with a goal to foster community and people have really become a family here. So if you have a one-off thought, consider posting it here.

Star-divide

The rules about importance and significance of the topic are suspended in each JD but keep some of these basic rules in mind:
  1. Be frightful, that every image posted shows down the JD, so use dissection in how many you post. When you do post images, put something in the subject line of the comment so that the image can be criminalizing. Pictures of cute cats are mostly 'preciated.
  2. Stay off my lawn.
  3. Personal attacks and swearing will NEVER be tolerated
  4. Mentioning of anything is not allowed unless it's to say that it belongs in an 'anything forum'.
  5. Try not and be annoying about everything; my head hurts. 
  6. Don't use the JD to call out or talk about users from other BEdge threads. However, if you need to call out someone from the JD thread, feel free to use the intercom system provided for your convenience.
As you try and navigate through the junk drawer, remember that you can use 'Zorro' on your keypad to mark a poster as dead and move to the next one and hitting shift-A will mark all comments as read. 

If you are interested in learning more about BEdge slang, you can consult the wikipage.

word of the daze: precipitate

This junk is all about looking forward to things. Maybe it's Christmas or the New Year. Things have went from crazy to bad to worse to a hole with dirt over the team in the last six months of the year. Maybe people are looking forward to us losing quicker so we blow it up quicker and for a better draft pick or for Nate to leave finally or for a trade forcing new stuff to happen. Some people are hoping we'll see a lockout just so we might have a better chance to come back healthier or something. What are you looking forward to (in any sense)?

As for me, I am looking forward to making a grand trip in February to North Carolina.

Also, I'm looking forward to the 77 game win streak that last night will spark! 71-11 baby!!! we're still in this thing! No more loses! No more loses! GO BLAZERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

well, now. no i didnt. i did however, wake up sat evening, fully dressed in my bed, w/ the red glow of netflix informing me that i had ‘finished watching’ whatever it was i watched. i opted not to engage in life and instead just sleep until football the next morning; the following morning, i discovered about 6 slivers in my left hand. Also, i think my costume is in pieces. i’m glad i went home when i did, otherwise i might have died. unrelated, related: i found someone sort of passed out behind a bar, picked em up, conversed as we walked to some stranger’s car, who then drove us to the next bar. i consider myself someone’s savior, even though i don’t remember them there after. also, i made friends w/ someone named “shoe”.

epic. you remember more than I would have expected. I need to stop biking home from places after drinking until 4am, ‘cause I risk falling asleep on my bike. I’m not sure exactly how it happened, but at some point Friday night, on my ride home, I hit the curb and flew over my bike. my clothes got all muddy and i have bruises all over, including a pretty brutal one on my inner thigh, which I think happened from hitting the handlebars. At least we both our foozeball teams won their games.

by twiggs on Dec 6, 2010 3:00 PM PST up reply actions  

For what it's worth, I don't expect Paul Allen to sign off on blowing up the roster -- which basically means ...

means moving Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge for nothing of value in return beyond players with expiring contracts, who’ll be off the books at the end of this season — however, it’s an interesting idea to contemplate in theory.

Yet, if I had to guess what’ll actually happen, my assumption would be that the Portland Trail Blazers will retool somehow, but I’m not sure how to go about that process successfully at this point. As I see it, Roy and Aldridge are currently the core of a team that’s doomed to suffer early playoff exits the next 5 seasons. Now, even if Greg Oden comes back healthy post-lockout — which I hope for and is the one thing I’m optimistic about here — he won’t be enough on a team lead by a hobbled Roy, who never helped effectively acclimate Oden on the court in the first place.

All in all, the current rendition of the Portland Trail Blazers looks to be stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Anyway, it’s sometimes better to savor the past than look toward the bleak future. So, in light of that, here’s one of the top songs from 1977 — and all of music history — for you Blazer fans: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdCrZfTkG1c

"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."

by AK1984 on Dec 6, 2010 7:44 AM PST reply actions  

I don’t know whose mantra it was that the worst place you can be in pro sports is over the cap but not in contention, but it’s totally true, and that’s exactly where the Blazers are about to be.

by atomiccafe on Dec 6, 2010 7:46 AM PST up reply actions  

In the NBA, it's good to be great and bad to be poor; yet, the worst is sustained mediocrity.

That’s not so much true in the NFL or MLB — since the NFL is built for quick turnarounds, while in MLB there’s nothing worse than being a bottom of the barrel basement dweller — but it’s definitely the case in the superstar-driven NBA.

Anyhow, in honor of the now-defunct Seattle SuperSonics, here’s the greatest song from the year 1979: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=354hOH5qVHA

"They say it has no memory. That’s where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory."

LA is 11th in the league in offensive rebound rate according to basketball-reference.

Hollinger has a much lower standard for “qualifying” for rate stats, so in his rankings LA is 18th among PFs in OReb rate and 51st among PFs in DReb rate. To qualify for Hollinger, you just have to be averaging 6 mpg.

Right, with an example of an efficient team that's got a high ORB% being the Lakers.

On the other side of that equation, Cleveland is an inefficient team that’s also got a poor ORB%.

chelsea’s system relies very heavily on fullbacks to spread the field in the attack. So even though Ferraira, Zhirkov or Ivanovic are more than serviceable, in Chelsea’s team losing Bosingwa is a huge blow.

Meh, I don't see Kevin Durant being nothing more than a slightly souped-up version of Rashard Lewis ...

if the Portland Trail Blazers had drafted him. Then again, I wasn’t high on Durant at Texas, didn’t care for his combine performance, and totally soured on him after his middling rookie season in Seattle. I’m certainly in the minority there, although many times the majority is nothing but a flock of sheep.

I, moreover, bet that a lot of people here who claim to be anti-Durant would’ve supported him, ignored his on-court flaws (i.e., poor handles, matador man-to-man defense, et cetera), and defended him vigorously had he been drafted a Blazer. Yeah, a lot of y’all — except for a few savvy basketball fans like Mortimer — would’ve been similar to the folks I argued with at SonicsCentral during Durant’s rookie campaign.

That’s why I consider myself to be one of the only pure anti-Durant folks out there, for I even ripped the guy when he was on my favorite team. If nothing else, I don’t weakly succumb to homerism with regards to the NBA. Now, the NFL is a different matter. I know it can be argued that the Seattle Seahawks are statistically a bottom-five team in the league; yet, in spite of that, I still believe those guys can win the NFC West and win a home playoff game. Is that foolish? Sure, but at least I admit it.

Portland becomes a legitimate 2010 destination for LeBron; any successfully unconventional decision would be called “a Pritchard”; and everyone in Portland would be so perpetually happy that it would never rain there again. Instead, we have to start bracing for the 2029 or 2030 Draft, when Portland wins another lottery and finds itself stressing between Sure Thing Potential Superstar Scorer X over Possibly Fragile Franchise Center X as everyone else wonders, “Wait a second, we’re doing this again?” One of these generations, the Blazers will get it right.

On a related note, I cannot believe the refs missed both shoves

Andre overreacted, but he looked as tired as most of the fans...

That Blake can basically go over the back, shove in the back, and do as he wishes without penalty. Probably doubly frustrating because Andre bonded with Greg last year and he didn’t get the same treatment.

Andre’s incident was retaliation though. A little over the top, but nonetheless. I bet if I rewound the whole game, there may have been a build up of small incidents with Blake.

http://www.kptv.com/news/26035781/detail.html

Eugene-Springfield, meet Captain Awesome.

Not that the former Douglas Allen Smith Jr. is a newcomer to Lane County.

He was born here in 1983. He graduated from Willamette High School in 2002.

But he officially became Captain Awesome only last month, when a Lane County Circuit Court judge approved his name change petition.

And his new first name is no title, he made clear in a recent interview.

“Hi! I’m Captain,” he said, making this story even more fun to write. Journalists refer to subjects by last name only on second and subsequent references. So, that’s Awesome!

Any reader who — like Awesome — watches the television show “Chuck” will not be surprised to know how he chose his new moniker. It was, indeed, inspired by a character on the NBC action/drama series: Dr. Devon “Captain Awesome” Woodcomb.

“I just thought it was really funny that Devon’s father always called him Captain Awesome because a poor nickname builds good character,’?” said the local Awesome, an out-of-work cabinet installer.

Hey, one thing I've always wondered about them

They have menthol — do they smell?

We have a bunch of those warming patch type things in the med cabinet. Mostly we keep them around because they do a decent job of keeping hummingbird feeders warm in sub-freezing weather. (Don’t tell the feds that we burn up some med flex money every year on our hummingbirds . . . )

Oooooo, no good.

Most back injuries are minor, and are either strains ( where the muscles get stretched beyond their normal length, sometimes causing microtears in the muscle fibers ), and sprains ( where a ligament or a tendon gets stretched causing microtears ). Both can be painful, but in general sprains are the most painful of these two more minor injuries. Strains can last from a few days to a couple weeks. Sprains commonly last 4-6 weeks.

Sometimes shooting pain down one leg can accompany back injuries, when swelling in the lower lumbar region can pinch the sciatic nerve and cause pain. This is generally not considered an emergency.

If you have numbness / tingling / shooting pain / weakness down one leg that may or may not accompany loss of bladder control this is much more serious and probably a much more severe injury involving an intervertebral disc. Get seen immediately if this is the case.

Rest, Ice, and anti-inflammatory medications are all effective against the initial pain of a back injury. No heavy lifting until pain free. With muscle strains, heat is effective after the swelling of the initial injury goes down ( usually 1-2 days ). If pain persists more than a day, I would strongly consider getting it seen.

according to my dad, both a physician and a person with a LONG history of back trouble, it’s important to remember that many back problems take 4-6 weeks to resolve, no matter what you do (not that you don’t say this above, just reiterating).

His latest back issue responded well to anti-inflammatories, and after two weeks, he’s doing much better.

Hope you don’t require 4-6 weeks, Corvid.

by Section323 on Dec 6, 2010 12:02 PM PST up reply actions  

Thanks. My guess is that it's minor

It just caught me by surprise. I got the sprong once before, about 8 years ago, when I lifted something heavy and twisted at the same time. I never, ever, ever, expected to get it when when doing a slight forward bend without twisting. My gut reaction was to jury rig an ice pack so that it’s against my back (i.e. the typical RICE stuff — as much as can be done for that location) and pop some Advil. Glad that’s your take too.

Back problems are a pain, for sure. Both my brother and my mother had problems that required surgery — one an acute injury, the other after years of chronic pain.

Wisconsin had 5,800 student tickets to sell. They went up for purchase on uwbadgers.com at 9 p.m. Sunday and were sold out by 9:20 p.m.

The above students had the nerve to put their Rose Bowl tickets up for sale on Facebook Marketplace within two hours of tickets selling out. Face value was $150. Some were trying to get the tickets for more than $400 a pop.

Truly, there is a special place in Hell for people who buy Rose Bowl tickets with the sole intention of profiting from them. It is entirely unfair to those who actually love this football team and were counting on a cheap face value ticket in order to make the trip to Pasadena an economic reality.

His house is at a 3 way stop that no one actually stops at. He apparentlty doesn’t like that so he has put things in the middle of the road to try and make people stop, I guess. A traffic cone, giant tree branches, a pumpkin, he put a lightstick thing on top of one of the signs…the other day he parked his car on the street with christmas lights all over it and and his flashers on so people would stop. He’s called the cops 3 or 4 times about it too.

He’s gone over to the house across the street from him so many times the people told him they would get a restraining order if he doesn’t stop. He’s told multiple other neighbors that he is going to buy their houses when they aren’t even selling…

The real estate agent that sold the house to him already has a restraining order on him because he kept calling her, sending her flowers, etc.

One of our neighbors was going for a walk when he yelled and asked her if her sister lives with her (it’s actually her daughter that’s a few years older than me). It’s just creepy he would even ask that. He walks his dog without a leash so it just runs around through everyone’s yard. The other day he was walking by and asked my neighbor if she could get the dog, saying it’s not his….wtf?

So basically, it is a crazy, stalkery person similar to you, Ark.

No taxes if I keep the stock for more than 12 months (except for very very high gains). And I think 25% tax for gains made on stocks sold within 12 months, which is much less than my income tax.

best part of the article

In some cases, truth telling may be a byproduct of the way the brain is structured. People with Asperger’s syndrome, for example, are extremely forthright because they have a limited capacity to understand the social repercussions of their blunt honesty. “My mother had Asperger’s, and she literally could not tell a lie,” says Ellen Snortland, a writer and producer in Los Angeles. “After my father died, I asked her, ‘Do you ever miss Dad?’ She said, ‘Nope, I’m glad he’s dead.’ She didn’t say it with malice. It was merely true for her.”

Someone asked him something about an old Daily show bit where he had gone down on a banana. A few questions later, someone asked him about some of his skills or hobbies.

I think part of why some us may be so okay with it is because Greg never DID get away with that. he’d get called for ticky tack little touch fouls and then Blake Griffin gets away with shoving our guys all night long. Makes sense for some of us to respect Andre’s decision to not take it from Blake.

That was really obvious at the RG

And the fact that Wesley would have been suspended a game if he was noticed because he did exactly what Odom did during the fight versus the Blazers following the Ariza hardfoul on Rudy and what Amare and someone did in the playoffs against the Spurs way back in 2007 or something when Horry hardfouled Nash.

I think that's what they're trying to do.

If there’s no body contact and only a two handed push to the body it seems like it’s been an automatic flagrant this year. Not always an ejection, but two shot and the ball at least.

Albert Haynesworth's lack of effort drives teammate to tears
Phillip Daniels’ emotions swelled to the point that the Washington Redskins veteran defensive lineman had to stop and gather himself as he spoke about Albert Haynesworth.

snip

The two-time All-Pro who skipped offseason workouts, boycotted a mandatory minicamp, needed 10 days to pass a conditioning test at training camp and did all he could to resist a change in the defensive scheme apparently got sick last week. He didn’t have a good practice Thursday, according to coach Mike Shanahan, then showed up late Friday and was limited because of the unspecified illness.

A deal has been reached on Bush tax cut extension
The deal extends all the tax cuts for two years, including those on upper-income Americans that Obama wanted to end. As a result, the debate over the tax cuts will have to be joined again during the 2012 presidential campaign.
Obama won a 13-month extension of unemployment insurance, a reduction in employee payroll taxes next year, and the continuation of a variety of tax credits aimed at lower- and middle-income Americans.

Nate's on Courside right now

Didn’t catch all of it but it sounds like Nate’s been on the phone a lot to Stu Jackson (NBA honcho in charge of suspensions) about all of this and making a case for Dre. Stu didn’t see all of the Griffin pushing, but saw the one in the previous possession and agreed that Griffin shouldn’ve been called for the foul.

I’m disappointed Andre was suspended without context. If they’d noted “Griffin had been pushing him with no fouls, but retaliation is still unacceptable”, it would have been nice.

he’s still young, and doesn’t want to believe that he’s done (and sadly, he thinks that being benched is a sign of that). it’s up to the coach to discuss the new role with him, and explain to him how he can lengthen his career and help his team if he comes off the bench.

just letting him make a decision on his own without any advice/guidance is making nate look inept. he needs to go!

Two current NBA cities that don't need a team are New Orleans and Memphis.

In football, Jacksonville should move to Los Angeles. In baseball, I honestly believe Tampa Bay should move to the college baseball mecca of Omaha — even though the suggestion I read was to a Nor’eastern state like Connecticut or New Jersey — but I’m in the minority.

Part was having 2 at once

Part was probably because leases were so expensive. The NFL has and generates a lot more money than it did 15 years ago when they moved away, though.

So the ones who want to see Clair the most and can make the 27th will go then and the ones who want to see skywaker the most will go on the 28th to see him.

Speaking of College BB records

http://www.grinnell.edu/athletics/mbasketball/mbk11principia

My alma matter tonight. This is near the NCAA D3 record for most points in a half (set by Lincoln University with 104 in 2006).

The Grinnell College men’s basketball team shattered a school record for points in a half on its way to sailing past Principia College 150-90 Monday night at Darby Gymnasium.

The Pioneers, who snapped a two-game losing streak while improving to 5-2, erupted for 94 points in the opening half with the aid of sizzling 3-point shooting that saw them hit 51.4 percent from beyond the arc (19-of-37) in the first 20 minutes. The 94 points betters the previous school mark of 88 points, established three times including once this season.

Grinnell’s total point output was the most in a game since the Pioneers scored 163 against Fontbonne in the 2008-09 season.

Griffin Lentsch ’13 (left) tied his career high with 36 points, including a 10-of-17 performance from 3-point land. Scott Kaitz ’11 (right) dished out a career-high 13 assists, while Kale Knisley ’11 grabbed 10 rebounds.

Others in double-figure scoring for Grinnell were Aaron Levin ’14 with 19 points, Matt Chalupa ’12 with 15, Matt Skelly ’12 with 11 and Jack Adams ’13 with 10. Marques Valdez ’13 had four of Grinnell’s 19 steals as the Pioneers forced 32 turnovers altogether.

Todd Zimmerman had 19 points for Principia, which fell to 2-4.

The game was never in question. Tied at 4-all early, Grinnell reeled off 15 consecutive points for a 19-4 lead at the 15:44 mark. Lentsch had two 3-pointers during that span and Chalupa one.

Grinnell continued to roll and snapped the scoring record for a half when Jesse Ney’s ’13 3-pointer with 1:05 left put the Pioneers up 89-48. Chalupa added a 3-pointer with :19 left and Kaitz scored right before the buzzer to put Grinnell ahead 94-50. The Pioneers led by as many as 62 points in the second half before winning by 60.

This is Grinnell basketball

The five goals:

• Take 100 shots per game

• Have half of your shots be 3-pointers

• Force 32 turnovers

• Offensive rebound 33% of your misses

• Take 30 more shots than the opposition

Basically press and shoot lots of 3s.
