The Donner Party is the most interesting story ever.
Here are some highlights.
April 15, 1846- The families of James F. Reed and George and Jacob Donner, 31 people in nine wagons, leave Springfield, Illinois.
May 29 Sarah Keyes, Reed’s mother-in-law, dies and is buried at Alcove Spring
Oct. 5- Reed threatens to kill Louis Keseberg after he finds out that Mr.Keseberg beats his wife. Reed later kills John Snyder, the Graves family’s teamster, in a dispute at Iron Point and is banished from the train.
Oct.6-13- Unable to keep up, Mr. Hardcoop is left behind in the desert; no one will go back for him. Wolfinger stays behind to cache his wagon only to be murdered by his companions, Joseph Reinhardt and Augustus Spitzer.
Jan. 24- Louis Keseberg, Jr. (Louis Kesebergs son), dies.
Feb. 20 Catherine Pike dies.
April 17- William Fallon and the Fourth Relief party reach the Donner Camps, finding only Louis Keseberg alive among the mutilated remains of his former companions.

true....
but it wasn’t even on guy doing the murdering! Reed did, then they just left a guy behind, then these Reinhardt and Spitzer guys killed someone. then they find Keseberg with a bunch of corpses (i’m assuming he ate them).
and those are just some of the highlights!
i wonder why this isn’t a movie yet….

especially if they didn't try to make it all sympathetic.
and the last scene was just people finding Keseberg among the corpses. Pain the Donner Party people as villains rather than intrepid pioneers forced in to doing the unthinkable.

Hi DTL
You look good today. Especially your thighs. Can you help me get this chair into the back of my wagon? Just hop up in there.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
DTL, with a wary look in his eye, gets in to the back of the wagon, and, fearing a machete in the back, makes sure to turn around and look at ASH in the process. He sees ASH holding a machete.
. DTL [his voice wavers]
What’re you gonna do with that machete, Ash?
. ASH [voice cold, his eyes glazed with hunger, words monotone]
I aim to kill you with it.
ASH climbs in to the back of the wagon. DTL quickly backs away, but ASH is quicker. A struggle ensues. The struggle is taut, arms and legs flying in short compact movements, with DTL trying to knock the machete aside. We can feel the weight of the fight. DTL knocks the machete away but then receives a thunderous jab from ASH, which knocks DTL to the ground. With no other option, in self defense, DTL kicks at ASH, connecting with his groin. ASH doubles over. DTL scrambles for the machete, grabbing it. ASH is now cornered. Both are breathing heavily. The air holds a tension DTL, now with a maniacal look in his eye, advances on ASH.
DTL
You’re dinner, [edited for bedge]
DTL lunges at ASH, the machete already above his head and quickly descending. ASH raises his arm in defense but is too late……

James Reed was pretty awesome though.
After he was banished he briefly fought in the Mexican-American war before organizing a rescue party in the Spring. He ended up saving his family.
Ironically he also saved Keseberg who was basically the reason he was banished in the first place and didn’t end up stranded with the others in the mountains.

Oden is running.
He took a step in the right direction Wednesday when he ran on the treadmill for the first time since undergoing surgery in December to reattach his broken left kneecap.
Oden now practically lives in the weight room, working to strengthen his leg. It’s a long shot, but he hopes to return before the season ends.-indystar

i can’t imagine what it would be like if he actually comes back. i gotta think that would do wonders for his psyche. and if he comes back effective, i bet it would go a long way in shining up his national reputation.
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
Yeah.
His conditioning won’t be great though, especially if he’s just now running. It would be amazing though, even if it was just for short stretches.
by Nick Van Excellent on Mar 5, 2010 8:06 AM PST up reply actions
his conditioning wouldn't be there, for sure.
but if he progresses quickly, he might be able to appear in the final game of the regular season. i doubt it will happen, but it’s kinda cool to consider.
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
It would be so cool from an emotional standpoint.
Oden needs that kind of mental support.
by Nick Van Excellent on Mar 5, 2010 8:16 AM PST up reply actions
If he is physically able, I would trust the team would welcome him back. There may be a negative response if the team says, “well, thanks for working so hard, but let’s wait till next season.”
Bringing onto the floor for a few minutes at least would be great.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
Shocker
Z back to the Cavs. I like how the writer tries to add drama to the story. Nice try.
It’s likely the Cavs will accept him back with open arms. General manager Danny Ferry agonized over the decision to trade Ilgauskas, a former teammate, close friend and the franchise’s leader in rebounds and games played, to Washington as part of the deal for forward Antawn Jamison.
Now, Ferry has a chance to make everything right.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
oh the agony that Ferry must have gone through.....
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
Well, after all Ferry had thrown more than 100 million after Ilgauskas over the course of his career.
Then it’s not an easy decision to pay him $500k for 25 more games.
Also it’s funny how much Washington got for Jamison (and Drew Gooden) in the end: A poor man’s Travis Outlaw in Al Thornton, the rights to the mighty Emir Preldzic, probably a #29 or #30 draft pick depending on where Cleveland ends up this year, and cap relief. I wonder if Dave isn’t wrong in his belief how much we would get for trading LaMarcus.
The NBA needs to fix the loophole
that allows guys involved in winkety wink trades to return to their original teams after getting dumped by the team that traded them. It seems to violate the spirit of the equal value trade clause and circumvent the rule. I think guys should not be able to return to their team of origin that way during the same season at least.
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
I believe I agree
Unless I am forgetting some GOOD reason to allow a traded player to rejoin his team in a winky wink deal.

No… it’s a bad loophole that needs to be fixed…

Because if you don't allow them to return in a truely non-winky wink deal
then you are unfairly restraining the player from joining the team that he wants.
Of course, I can’t think of a deal like this that where they didn’t seemingly have a tacit understanding of how things would go down, but imagine if there was one. JUST IMAGINE
isn’t that what the salary cap is for?

That is to keep the rich teams from just outspending the poor teams
but what if over the summer LeBron runs into BRoy, LNA and Oden in Hawaii and decides “These are nice guys, plus Nike headquarters is just down the road so I can save a lot of time when I need to go there for a meeting, AND I would have a lot more minutes on my cell phone bill. I should sign with the Blazers.” The fact that KP might have signed Camby to a 5 year deal and taken up what cap space the ‘Zers may have the day before doesn’t stop LeBron from signing for the minimum and taking Dieners spot.
Hee hee
"These are nice guys, plus Nike headquarters is just down the road so I can save a lot of time when I need to go there for a meeting, AND I would have a lot more minutes on my cell phone bill. I should sign with the Blazers."
#52
whats more
is that with Phil Knight’s kids away at college, Phil has a spare bedroom for LeBron to crash in and probably a used Honda Civic that LeBron can use to drive to practice/games. Think of how much money LeBron could save in Portland! He would be a fool to sign anywhere else.
true, but if we were to then trade Lebron to another team who bought him out, I’d be fine if he couldn’t resign in Portland till the end of the season

D'Antoni is proud of his system: I think we’ll win a championship this way. Now, not today. But that’s where we want to get to."
I would love to see how he wants to do that when LeBron and Wade don’t sign with him. Is his system enough to win it with Sergio and Bosh? With Gallinari and Amare?
Perhaps he thinks his system doesn't need the best players to win
He believes in the system more than he believes in players winning!
The last few years doesn’t prove anything about his system other than it still needs great players to run it. If he thought he was gonna turn around a crappy NYK roster just with his style and coaching alone, then that says to me he thinks it’s more than it is.
#52
And in particular it seems to demand a Steve Nash quality point guard. Duhon plays better this season than Knicks fans make him seem, especially as a passer. But neither he nor Robinson had much success in leading the team to wins.
w0rd
Duhon, at the very least, can run the D’Antoni pick and roll. He gets assists. And Lee can finish with it. But the rest… they need more. They need Nash.
He hasn’t had, like, an actually GOOD point guard since Nash, but it’s not like Sloan’s offense which still got his team to .500 back when AK was the only good player.

Amare and Joe Johnson.

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
they'll trade for Rubio.

Who said you can’t relive the mistakes of the past? Boston is currently reassembling the 2001 NBA All-Star team (Wallace, KG, Finley, Allen, …) and D’Antoni could get his old 2004-ish Suns back!
The three top players in rebound rate this season
1 Marcus Camby, POR, 58 games, 22.2
2 Greg Oden, POR, 21 games, 22.0
3 Joel Przybilla, POR, 30 games, 21.7
Rest of the top 10: Dalembert, Howard, Love, Blair, Noah, Duncan, Brockman.
This could be funny next year. Though I still think Camby will walk, that should really help the rebounding and could help to start more fast breaks.
juwan is number five? awesome. i mean: awesome!
"I told somebody to stop crying," Pendergraph said after the game. "Actually, I told them all to stop crying."
It is a good thing LMA doesn’t rebound or else he’d make those guys look bad.
wink wink.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
You think he’ll walk? What will the demand on the market for him be?
I get the paper, so I don't care!
after the nix miss on lbj, wade, bosh, and amare
and they are stuck overpaying for joe johnson and boozer, then they will be able to offer camby a boatload of cash

You know who might be a good young PG for our system? Lou Williams
http://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/tiny.cgi?id=MKknq
Bayless could become as good with experience, but so far Williams is the better shooter, draws just 1 foul less per 36 minutes, has a better assist ration, turns it over less, commits less fouls, and has far less usage. And he’s the only top 10 PG in PER who seems somewhat available for the right price next season.
I think Bayless becoming Lou Williams is EXTREMELY reasonable
PLUS Bayless is a better defender now, and will only improve.
Took Lou 4 years to be a starter… Bayless is developing faster while coming into the league at a similar age.
I do agree though— a good combo guard like Sweet Lou could fit us nice.
#52
Then we just need to get Scott Skiles to have us defend!
I dunno how he does it, with Ridnour playing PG.
#52
Shockingly, Luke is statistically better than Devin Harris this season in terms of almost any efficiency. TS%, AS%, To%, PER, …
It makes sense
Harris’s stats are bad. He might be going the way of the Hinrich, statistically!
I think he can bounce back though. If he’s a Blazer, he better!

is he gonna replace Cutler?
or play wide receiver?

did you ever play mutant league hockey for the sega? The secret, when playing on the highest difficulty is to simply murder the computer’s players. Suppose for a second that you stop playing any defense, and just allow shots on your goal. Now the goalie will block about 80 percent of those. So, in the first period, you try to keep the puck on their side, without really worry about what’s going on in the game. In the meantime, you murder everyone on their team. By the second period, you might be down 4 goals to none, but suddenly, the computer has no players other than a goalie (you can’t kill the goalie). You spend your remaining time shooting on goal, endlessly. Score as much as you want at this point.

Those insurance stories aren't all that uncommon.
My favorite inappropriate line ever said directly to me is as follows:
tinfoil: Can you described the person that you rear-ended?
Insured: Oh, it was one of the people from 9/11.

when i was rear ended a few years ago the woman driving blamed her car for not stopping in time…
her: “I hit the brakes as hard as I could, but the car kept going”
me: “you put it into a 4 wheel slide while tailgating me doing 70mph coming up to a construction zone”
her:" but it wouldn’t stop when I hit the brakes"

There are lot of factors, and each company does it differently.
The easy ones are age and gender The easy way to think of it is you look at who gets in the most accidents, and make those people pay more so that everyone else can pay less. There are others things, such as credit scores and marital status that some companies use. There is a huge correlation between people with bad credit and people with extensive accident histories, moreso even than age and gender.
In your case, paying out a claim isn’t what would make the rates go up, negligence is what would mak your rates go up. It’s very socialistic. People who are in negligent accidents pay more, rather than spreading everything out equally.

Anyone remember the movie HOT TO TROT?
It just popped in my head out of NOWHERE. No idea why it did. But for some reason I just imagined one of the last scenes where the talking horse that Bobcat Goldthwait rides wins the race because it had buck teeth poking out across the finish line.
Man, that was a bad movie, even as a kid, and I must’ve watched it 80 times. How did I watch it so much? Did we record a copy off of TV? Was it always on TV? I forget.

Did you ever see the movie "Hamburger"
I think that was the title. It had Dick Butkus and one especially naughty restaurant scene. It may have been called “Hamburger University” or “Hamburger: The motion picture.” I forget.
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
saw it
Remember the song too. “Hamburgers, born American”
I remember when the big cucumber died and a baby gherkin was born.
Have you seen H.O.T.S.?
No, but it seems eerily familiar
when did it come out?
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
I thought I saw all the sexually charged teen exploitation movies of that era
I saw Hardbodies 2 was on Encore recently. How bad was that?

So regarding the Hoth attack....
I was reviewing some Hoth battle war film and remain unconvinced about a couple little “issues” his highness Sir Mortimer insists I accept unflinchingly and without reservation.
Mainly, I argued the Imperial walkers were taken out by head shots from the rebellions speeders, but Mortimer says they were shots to the neck.Stop frame footage is inconclusive at best. The first attack on a downed walker shows in freeze action a double barrelled shot aimed squarely at the walkers head, but mysteriously vanishes before impact. A second shot from a higher angle appears and mysteriously causes the walker’s head to explode. I call foul. This is clearly a poor piece of CGI and for whatever reason one of the cheap way outs for Lucasfilm to get past the whole Hoth attack and onto Luke’s boring encounter with Yoda at Degoba.
My other problem that needs less scrutiny is how could the tow cables bring down the walkers to begin with? Where the harpoons made from some sort of material that was strong enought to stick into the reinforced steel legs of the walkers that rebellion lasers couldn’t even mar?
I call posh, but I’m not going so far as to say Empire wasn’t a great movie. Just a couple technicalities.
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
i just read the headline.....

I change my vote on the best Star Trek series to.....
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
Those weren't harpoons
they were magnetic tow cables. So there.
However, why they didn’t have some sort of high explosive device attached to those magnets is beyond me. I mean they have mastered FTL travel, but they can’t even construct a proper missle. This is like something straight out of Avatar.
Luke says
“set your harpoon for the next pass”
“activating harpoon” and then it sticks to the walkers leg
not hearing anything about magnetic cables
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
check your stop frame footage again
clearly the harpoons have a blunt edge, which must mean that they are magnetic.
Also Mort is right they were neck shots. Proof
I stand uncorrected
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
clearly you are assuming the harpoons have blunt edges
because there is no good shot of them. Also, how could they have cinched up so tight upon releasing the cable? the cables would have just slid down or snapped. C’mon.
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
Are you sure that there are no good shots of them? You should review your footage
Also because the harpoons are verifiably magnetic even Lucas isn’t dumb enough to make them pointed when a flat surface would have a much stronger connection.
ok they're magnetic
I’m just trying to get to the truth
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
What truth are you trying to get to the bottom of?
What I don’t get is lightsabers. So you have this beam of energy that will cut through almost anything instantly. Why do they only use them as hand to hand weapons of the Jedi? Wouldn’t they be useful as a projectile weapon to cut the legs off of an AT-AT?
It started with the Hoth attack
I thought it was a lame sequence. I’m trying to figure out where the kill shots on the At ats were placed.
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
The kill shots were at the neck.
Why they couldn’t simply drop bombs on the neck, or shoot them from the sides is another question.
AT-AT were very impractical

That’s what I’ve been thinking, too. She seems to be like a good mix of Christina Aguilera and Kyle Minogue right now and is more than a one-hit wonder, but it’s unclear if she will have that staying power. Though when I first saw Shakira in “Whenever, Wherever” I also though “oh, who is that Britney clone, she might not survive long”. Her nickname back then was “the pan flute [female doggy]” among some music producers I know. Later I saw her live in Mexico City and was convinced that she’s actually talented as a performer and songwriter.

If you need auto-tune, you shouldn't be singing.
by Timmay! on Mar 5, 2010 2:59 PM PST up reply actions 1 recs
More people use it live than you would think. But I agree, in the recording studio it’s become a terrible epidemic and you should be able to do without it if you can repeat your takes. Last week I zapped into “Future Hits” or something on MTV Hits, and the top 3 were all way too autotuned R&B pieces.
Yep, it's definitely (disappointingly) spreading to live performances
Though not to all of them. From Time’s auto-tune article:
But when track after track has perfect pitch, the songs are harder to differentiate from one another—which explains why pop is in a pretty serious lull at the moment. It also changes the way we hear unaffected voices. “The other day, someone was talking about how Aretha Franklin at the Inauguration was a bit pitchy,” says Anderson. “I said, ‘Of course! She was singing!’ And that was a musician talking. People are getting used to hearing things dead on pitch, and it’s changed their expectations.”
Somebody will not use it and get super popular. This is just a phase.
Official Adrian Wojnarowski Hater.
The Ardent Optimist.
I'm not so sure.
It’s pretty much a given for every artist that their producers will run their vocals through auto-tune. Not just new artists either, a lot of veteran artists. If the veteran artists are doing it, it’s likely simply a new phase of post-production.
I would blame T-Pain and the guy who did it for Cher. Timbaland probably loved it too. Not sure someone like Rick Rubin would use it, he rather tries to put the musicians in a certain mood and is no post-production wizard.
The general consensus is the same as yours
The person who produced “Believe”, and T-Pain, with the rest of the artists latching on to it afterward.
who did you have to kill when that was your cover job?

Yeah it isn't going away
I think that one of the biggest impacts of the move to digital music/iPods is that it is moving music away from the album format and towards catchy songs, songs which benefit the most from Autotune and other post-production magic.
It won't go away
But its popularity will certainly decrease. People will eventually latch onto something else.

your running off a skewed sample though because up until Blake was traded, Jerryd’s minutes were erratic and more than a few of his stretches were in mop up duty

It’s weird that people act like Rudy could be the PG of the future when his demonstrable skill is shooting, which is less useful and easier to learn than getting to basket. And Rudy doesn’t have an NBA level handle! And Jerryd is 3-4 years younger! He will get better.

The full game is a lot of fun.

If you get further into the game, the female voice who is talking to you will go through some problems.
My NBA Top 5 Newsletter wants to promote Kevin's Top 5 plays of the season ;)
http://www.nba.com/video/channels/nba_tv/2010/02/17/20100217_durant_top5.nba/
- is his crossover on Miller, but overall I’m not terribly impressed by these plays. #4 and #5 are basically broken up plays where Harden sets him up, the others are scenes where he uses his quick first step.
Other topics the NBA would like to stress: Thabeet developing his game in the DL (yeah, right), mic-ed players, Bird and Magic, and the two Italians in Toronto.
Memphis? I think they should have drafted Rubio or Evans and said so back then. I also recommended trading up for Griffin, which was not a good idea considering how easy they were able to land Z-Bo and how well he plays for them.
Portland: I heard about Durant first and thought he would be very good and still think so, but I was for drafting Oden and still am because I think both can be very good and potentially win titles. And we need a very good center which is a rare component with a lot of guys not panning out. But I’m not convinced it’s just the “4 mile point in the marathon” like Dave wrote, and I don’t think Dave would be happy if you had told him Greg would play 1 out of 3 seasons while Durant earns the star label after the draft. For me it all stands and falls with Oden’s ability to stay on the court for which he must be healthy and out of foul trouble. Per minute he is already awesome (he exited the season with a PER above 20 and a visible defensive impact), but that’s not what wins games and more of a theoretical discussion. If he can do that, he’ll be Patrick Ewing/Robert Parish 2.0 and be very valuable. If not, we could get less efficient but more reliable production from a number of bigs and are looking at Bowie/Jordan 2.0. Still too soon to tell, but if Greg misses a lot of the next season too the public opinion will be set against him. In that regard, coming back for the playoffs and playing about as well as he did against Yao would do a lot for him and his standing in the league.
but this won't happen right?
In that regard, coming back for the playoffs and playing about as well as he did against Yao would do a lot for him and his standing in the league.
I don’t think so since the current status of his rehab seems to be “walks without crutches for short distances” and “runs on a (zero gravity?) treadmill”. But for his psyche I think it would be very good though I dread our training staff rushing people back ahead of time at the same time.
I've collected some questions for an economics JD. Not yet sure when I can post it, and if I should provide the answers immediately.
It’s not really serious analysis anyway. I would also like to discuss scenarios at some point. It was interesting to hear that the Blazers seem to use that quite a lot to think about what would happen provided player A does this and team B does that.

Cheetah!
Well, Hedo is kind of his dream scenario. DX currently says “Theodoros Papaloukas” as his upside. He has some point-forward potential, but also big question marks especially on defense at about the same age as Nic. And 12 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists in Turkey is good but doesn’t exactly scream Next Scottie Pippen.
Sure, also some guys who would qualify as “undersized bangers”. But problem is that the less skilled guys are handsomely paid in Europe, so they have not that much incentive to try and make it in the NBA where they probably would wash out within 2-3 years. I mean, guys like Darko and Jasikevicius are stars at home or in their leagues and didn’t make much of an impact in the NBA.
i hope after their next game the headline is
“Darko sits, wolves lose anyways”
followed by
“other team only plays until halftime, wolves lose anyways”

Ouch.
Have to wonder how it will affect, if at all, Ricky Rubio. I’d think he wouldn’t be worried about it.
No, he has the talent to be a surefire starter and he would demand the closest thing to guaranteed minutes he can get. I think it could be both a good thing and a bad thing. The NBA wants players who are ready to take over a la Scola, and does not want Euro players who linger around. Rudy kind of played in Spain until he was having success and ready to come over (he has the malus of playing behind Roy, but his talent is there). Sergio arguably came over too early.
On the other hand, some guys who have the talent to make it might decide against it, simply because they can be a star at home with less risk/work. I’m looking at Victor Claver and a few bigs.

There was just a crazy story on Wheels at work about the trade between Chicago and Seattle in 94 that would have sent Pippen to the Sonics and Kemp to the Bulls.
Evidently it was a done deal, so close that both teams had already made press presentations and highlight reels, but the story broke in both cities before the ink had been put to paper on local sports radio stations, with the Seattle owner panicking due to fan outrage and he pulled out at the last second. Wow. That trade could ( probably would ) have changed the face of the current NBA. Seattle would probably still be there and maybe with a banner or two.

Yes. I liked a lot of the stories though it’s not the all-encompassing basketball almanac. And in some of his current columns and podcast he seems surprised how fast things can change that would warrant changes. E.g. now he seems to think that Shaq might not be the great teammate after all and Kobe the evil plotter who drove him out of town.
I do like his writing style, just not the Blazer hate. Maybe I'll read it if I see it for cheap.

by EvilKaramazov on Mar 5, 2010 2:23 PM PST up reply actions
cats are more like people so people want to study them more.
dogs are friendly and cool and awesome and loveable. They are like kittens that never grow up. if cats could stay kittens, they’d be way cooler. but anyway, people don’t care as much about dogs because there is nothing not to like about them. with cats, we celebrate the good things because it helps us forget about all the bad things.
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
if cats are like people, but we don’t watch dogs because there is nothing not to like about them, then it’s necessary that there are things to not like about people which is commensurate with how much we’re interested in them, on the webs.

he should study Chuck Hayes

He's already a better offensive player than Hayes
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
no one should study hayes on offense
however, his ability to play tough defense at the center position while giving up 5-6 inches to his opponent is very impressive

Its not Hayes’ fault the Rockets are careening towards the land of ping pong balls and April tee times for golf.

Hmm. She's cute as a button. Without makeup and a bunch of bling. Her bag,
however, looks like it’s from Coach. $$$$$
#52
For a family with as much money as they've got
Coach isn’t an expensive bag, is it? Less than Louis Vuitton?
#52
Coach is one of the least expensive name brands.
I think her purse is actually Louis Vuitton which is a lot more $$$$$ (aka thousands as opposed to hundreds).
#52
I ain't heard of Sandstorm or Bridge
I would only know about Coach and LV (I think Louis Vuitton’s are super ugly, with the LV all over it, most of their designs) because of the ex.
#52
I have bought a Coach purse before, for my ex
And it was expensive, but expensive for me, not for a millionaire.
#52
Coach purses are about $300-$400 on average probably.
Expensive for us normal people! But Louis Vuitton are like $2,000. A mortgage payment!

I thought she liked LV, but I had heard her wrong
And I had bought one from Pioneer Place, but it was, like, $500 bucks. It was dumb.
Luckily, she admitted that she actually didn’t like LV and didn’t want me to spend so much on a present, so we returned it and got a Coach at the outlet mall at the coast.
#52
Coach outlets ftw!
My brother bought a LV wallet when he was a dumb teenager. Even I thought it was a waste of money.

It was a medium sized purse, too... the LV one
It was too big for her, actually, which was another reason to return it.
I thought it was so ugly.

ESPN gets it
In their Insider article on Rookies, small excerpt:
Emphasis mine.
But the fact is, Oden was playing at an All-Star level when he went down with his latest knee injury, and he still has a chance to be very special. If we lump him with his rookie class of 2008-09, instead of with the 2007-08 class (he and Durant headed up the draft in 2007, but Oden missed what would have been his rookie season), then he has a chance to come out No. 1 in his class and give the West one of the dominant big men in the game.

And usually the fans are cool with a coaching change unless they’re really attached. By the time a coach could be on the block, the fans are never attached anymore.

TORONTO — Raptors forward Chris Bosh was sent to a hospital with severe stomach pains before Friday night’s game against the New York Knicks, the seventh straight game he’s missed.

The other games were with an ankle sprain. Stomach pains aren’t fun, but unless he has a major disease or a problem with his cecum it’s probably over fast with an antispasmodic and some rest.
Is it bad that this made me search for who has missed time because of one?

My Dad has a story about an obese woman who went to emergency with stomach cramps
She was starting labor and did not know she was pregnant
by southern oregon on Mar 5, 2010 4:10 PM PST up reply actions
i asked someone this very question.
she is a nurse. she said that sometimes women who are very obese have very irregular periods anyway, so the time between periods might not be out of the norm. but that still seems very out odd not to notice.
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
An irregular period (bouncing between 20 and 40 days) is one thing
but more than 200 days seems like a stretch.
that's what i thought too.
i’m just relaying the information i heard. who knows…..maybe there is a level of unhealthiness for a woman that would bring on that level of irregularity.
oh the mysteries of women……
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
i've heard similar stories.
i heard one where the woman was at home, went to the toilet cause she thought she needed to go #2 and a baby came out.

Maybe we should trade for Collison
Anybody think about this?
Official Adrian Wojnarowski Hater.
The Ardent Optimist.
Its a better idea than many of the ideas for trades
in that it has a snowballs chance in heck of happening.
But one of the big problems is going to get salaries to match up because Collison makes almost nothing (in NBA terms). So then the Blazers would have to take on one of NOs bad contracts and give up some good talent (Bayless+Rudy), but then do the salaries match?
Next spring they'll have JPEC to take back a bad contract.
Assuming Collison isn’t simply having a Jennings-level start to his career then settles back down.
I had forgotten about Przy's EC
something like Przy+Rudy+Bayless for Collison+Posey as the principals seem to be the basis of such a trade.
Even though I know Przy has an expiring deal next year
When I just read “JPEC” as a way to take back a bad contract, I thought “nuh uh, Jeff Pendergraph makes like a million bucks at MOST”.
#52
I'm worried Joel won't get back to 100%
And if that happens, within minutes he’ll becoming JPEC to the whole fan base.
Collison is pretty good. He was underwhelming in his last two college years though. I didn’t think he was this good.
Official Adrian Wojnarowski Hater.

Maybe he just got bored with college basketball
or he hated playing in the same backcourt with Westbrook and J’rue Holiday
I might be overestimating him

He took a step in the right direction Wednesday when he ran on the treadmill for the first time since undergoing surgery in December to reattach his broken left kneecap.

Opening paragraph
PORTLAND, Ore. — Greg Oden slowly jogged on an anti-gravity treadmill earlier this week as his Portland Trail Blazers teammates wrapped up a morning practice session.
#52
That's what I figure, but I haven't researched it fully
I presume it gives him full range of motion without stressing the joint with too much weight.
I know Nash uses one to run on
For his back and old man joints. And Grant Hill.
YAY we’re just like the Suns now!

You are in some kind of suspended harness I think. Though you could get a similar effect from using an orbital trainer.
Actually it is based on what astronauts rest to exercise in space
The is a blurb about it in this month’s Costco magazine. Apparently the marketer’s dad had the prototype of the NASA version just sitting around in the garage and the marketer decided to use that as a way to get experience for his masters program.

Ben said that Dave detailed him to the sports conference
although it is unclear what that actually means.
Or the people there who think of numbers as religion will make him put faith in them even more!!!!
#52
I think the conference is misunderstood. Most of the idea is how to put numbers in context. That’s why they have Lewis, Simmons, Morey, and Polian on a panel. They’re talking about how numbers are overused and misused for a portion of the conference.
#52
To enlighten those MIT dorks
Though they would need some graduates from real ivy league schools for that ;)
I kind of like adding some guys who tell the nerds what stats don’t yet see, though you don’t have to tell that to Morey. I also hope someone asks Cuban if he really thinks Dirk and Kidd are top 3 in the NBA like his Z-score said.
Of course he does
here is how Z-score is calculated:
- Make LeBron #1
- Put Dirk and Kidd really high
- some statistical stuff
also ...
greg now has dreads and he’s running and hoping to be back by playoffs
33 year old jewish man born in brighton!!! go yanks!

Generally I don’t like dreads though. I want him to have a high top fade. There hasn’t been a better haircut since then. Even do the Gumby, that’s good too. Sumthin’ early 90s.
Or a full out FRO. And don’t comb it, let it grow wild so he looks like he was just captured in the jungle and put on the basketball court, like a wild animal.

The broken legged one is doing well
they put him in a smaller splint earlier this week and he apparently can put as much weight on the leg as he wants to, although he hasn’t tried just.
Good!
That had to be tough with a lil’ monster. They don’t sit still real good, if you haven’t noticed.
My friend I stayed with the other month, his 3 year old son got his arm broke while wrestling with the mom. She felt real bad and now he can use it against her forever.
#52
He has handled it pretty well
He crawls around on the floor dragging his broken leg behind him, and he has his trains and he Legos to play with so he seems pretty happy.
I think that because his leg hurt so much when he broke it that he is really cautious about putting any weight on it, thinking that it will hurt again.
Especially for a two year old
I think that it is similar to when an athlete gets injuried, it takes a while before they trust their body the same way. Although with adults you can reason with them a bit, which you can’t with a little tot.
Have you thought about likening him to a little girl, with an angry tone to your voice?
It worked on me as a child.

Then you are not reinforcing gender roles strongly enough!
Belittling your son’s manhood starts in the home, you can’t expect the schools to belittle him for you, Tingey.
I helped my friend’s kid learn to ride his bike, and it was tough to get him back on it because he remembered months ago how he scraped his elbow on it and started crying. I finally convinced him, but that pain memory wouldn’t leave him.
That is nothing compared to what your kid experienced, so that’s gotta be tough to overcome. But once he does, he won’t think about it no mo’. Kids remember AND forget real easily!

For one, the kids wouldn’t say they’re on a “field trip”. Because they aren’t, they’re having a video feed with those Chinese kids. They are liars.

That teacher needs to control her class better, letting Ellen Page disrupt it like that when they had a scheduled meeting with that Chinese classroom, and letting a kid just walk up to the button that connects them to that classroom.

Jeff is a real bright guy who finished an Econ degree in 3 years
by southern oregon on Mar 5, 2010 6:33 PM PST up reply actions
I am not saying anything about Pendy's intelligence, perhaps his Econ degree helped his case
but I just find it odd that in what is looking like the biggest change to the CBA since the lockout 10 years ago that at least two teams are handing these duties over to rookies or players that aren’t well established in the league.
Did they win? It over?
I just turned from the Knicks blowing it, to the Pistons blowing it, to now the Kings and Mavs.

Checked out our standings in the Bedge league
DANG DTL has a good team! Lebron, Rondo, David Lee, those are all stat whores and efficient.
#52
i don't know what you were thinking....
i’ve gone back and looked at the draft recap a couple times to see how i ended up with both those Rondo and Lee. those are actually the guys that made my team. that and getting Love in the 5th round.
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
I thought Rondo would be bad for turnovers and Rose would build on his rookie season instead of decline. Oh well, I’m still decent though I haven’t managed it much after Christmas.
Rondo is bad for turnovers. for that matter, so is Lebron.
but Rondo makes up for it by being great in assists and steals. plus he rebounds very very well for a PG. i’ll give a way a stat to lock up 2 others and get great help in a third.
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
I always give up turnovers
I sometimes end up winning that stat, but not usually… the best players turn it over a lot.

i decided to give up turnovers and FT% as i was drafting.
just worked out that way with the guys that were available, plus I wanted Rondo and Lee anyway.

your team is still really good though. 3rd best in the league isn’t it?

i’ve been very very lucky not to have major injuries. after Love was back anyway. and except for Brewer. but no injuries to my main 3 guys.
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].
I just looked
Yup, you remembered correctly. Lee first, then Prez helps by autodrafting MARION and RASHARD LEWIS, and then you got Rondo.
Nice work!

On the day that Dwyane Wade was announced as the main representative of Jordan Brand in Miami while the Cavs were in town for a game (the game in which Wade had that ‘nasty’ dunk on Varejao) and Michael Jordan was in the crowd, LeBron grabs the media and announces that he’ll be retiring number 23 and that he thinks the whole league should. I have to admit that i was initially impressed with LeBron ability to keep the hype from blowing his ego into the stratosphere, but it’s overwhelmed him. Last seasons pouty exit from the playoffs was the end of my LeBron fandom.

Harden over Reke and Beaubois traded for Mullens
Has any GM had a worse draft in the last 50 years?

The Mavs also got a second round pick from OKC. Makes up a bit for the two they wasted on Shawne Headcase Williams.
Mavs totally ripped OKC off there
Unless Mullens has something more that he doesn’t seem to have. Beaubois was my exotique pick for the last draft, I wanted us to get him, and I was upset when OKC got him. I was glad they traded him.

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].

Did you hear Durant is like Jesus
According to ESPN he’s that good. He is kind of like Jesus in one way, neither has ever played a playoff game.

Don't fall into the media trap
I love Durant’s game. Doesn’t mean I think less of Oden because I think Durant has a chance to be a great scorer in this league

I agree
I think Durant=KG, very good player who can never win a title as leader of a team.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Pierce was really the leader
In any case, he couldn’t do it alone. Although I doubt OKC costs themselves five picks chasing after someone like Joe Smith.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
nah
KG was the leader

At bashing his head into the basket support
Before every game, yeah.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
It was an odd setup because it didn't have the typical
“I am the best player on this team” edge to it. Garnett was the best defensive player on that team by a mile and Pierce/Allen were the offensive leaders on that team.
Watching the WCC Tourney online
Close one between San Diego and Santa Clara. The announcers are idiots, talking about “this newfangeld 10th foul rule in college.” Its been a double bonus for years boys.

Morehead State-Murray State is going to be a good ballgame
If you watch just one conference tournament final this weekend, make it that one.
Firmly in favor of making a coaching change at the end of the season.
