LIVE Olympics THREAD. WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS!

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 22, 2014 -> 10:25 AM) Sometimes you just have to let him skate around with the puck and do his thing. Not easy for the other Americans since they are all used to having the puck. He will drop a pass behind him and they don't expect it and overskate it. He's had the puck again a ton today. -
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 22, 2014 -> 09:52 AM) I read $10B was the proposed multiple for DropBox and I crapped myself. Its a f***ing cloud. Maybe I'm a newb, but what the hell is such a difficult barrier to entry. Yes, they have market share, but how the hell are they a $10B (or even worse if it is truly valued at $20B) Company? Where is the logic. Earnings have been growing at a pretty high clip but you or I could start a company up and figure out how to do what they are providing and there are a lot of different people who have big server space out there that could jump into the cloud game to really keep them from ever having enough margins to be extremely profitable. Plus...I think even with all of their sales growth, DropBox is a $200 - $300M per year company in revenues. I can't imagine what Net Income is and EBITDA has to be significantly lower. The multiples of these tech companies are absurd and there is zero logic to them. Cloud software companies are very valuable, of course that's what Facebook is. Dropbox has entered the enterprise space in the last couple of years which is why they are valuable. Cloud intelligent content management is hot.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 22, 2014 -> 09:44 AM) He's been kinda quiet during the Olympics. Had some chances, but hasn't got on the board. saving them for the NHL playoffs I hope. He was most of their attack vs Canada. It seemed at times like his line mates didn't know how to play with him. He's kind of unorthodox. -

Just stay healthy. -
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 21, 2014 -> 09:15 PM) The outrageous claims are enough to let you know it's a gimmick. Legit things don't need fantastical claims. The plan is anorexia, no sleep and what little exercise you can do with no energy.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Feb 21, 2014 -> 08:58 PM) He has a chance to be pretty damn good.. He would be our best SF on the roster probably. I would be happy with that pick. He can shoot the three with consistency and can score. Not a bad pick.
-
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 21, 2014 -> 07:20 PM) Don't they generate like 400M in revenues. That is an absurd multiple. None of this recent tech stuff makes sense. Drop box valued at $10B. I hope it continues through our IPO.

Reading the details, it's no carb starvation. No thanks. It's not sustainable and would make everyone miserable.

Yeah but how ridiculous would your diet have to be for that philosophy to be true? That can't be healthy physically or mentally

The Sox play on the west side of Phoenix, but I really hate staying over there. For my money I like staying at the Talking Stick casino and resort in scottsdale. Its worth the drive.

QUOTE (supernuke @ Feb 21, 2014 -> 01:11 PM) Canada controlled the play but the lack of goal scoring still has me quite concerned. Understatement. Quick was great though. -

I am really happy I dont have to cheer for that style of hockey anymore. I prefer puck possession and active D men instead of whatever the f*** that is. -

Probably should have been the gold medal game but the US just looked uninspired. i wouldnt be surprised to see Sweden win the gold after a let down by Canada. Stay healthy guys -

Pretty poor effort by the US regardless of the outcome. Look tired, listless. -

The US plays such an anti-hawks game, its frustrating to watch. -

Canada is packing all 5 skaters below the center line forcing the US to work on entry. Its working. -

US is fighting the puck right now, luckily Quick has been good. -
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 21, 2014 -> 10:53 AM) Kevin Spacey and his group went around and proposed it to networks, HBO, Showtime, etc, and were declined. Then they went to Netflix and Hulu and Netflix wrote them a blank check for two seasons. He told that story on The Daily Show this week. Thats what I thought happened. Thats crazy to me, especially with him as the star and the EP. Netflix has scored on a few of these lately.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 21, 2014 -> 10:07 AM) 8 episodes in season 1? You've seen nothing yet. Good to hear, I was hooked after 30 min. How did Netflix get exclusive rights to this show? It's crazy to think the networks passed on it.
-
QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 20, 2014 -> 01:39 PM) For me, it isn't about the politics. It's about how diablolical the main characters are. Francis Underwood almost makes Walter White look innocent. The Political undertones are my favorite part. I watched 8 episodes this week already and plan on killing season one tonight and maybe tomorrow. The plot is awesome and I can already see some foreshadowing that will get exciting later on.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 20, 2014 -> 09:10 PM) I honestly don't use the showtime app anyway. Just seems Apple TV should have everything. It would be cool to have since Showtime has good content but for some reason they havent let those companies have access to it.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Feb 21, 2014 -> 07:57 AM) We're planning on going to Cleveland and Sandusky, OH for vacation this year...hit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Cedar Point, and maybe even an Indians game. As far as Cedar Point, has anyone stayed at one of the hotels on the property? I like the idea of being right there and getting the packages offered for discounted park admission. But, it seems like a lot of the reviews for those hotels are iffy. Any suggestions? Slyman's Deli. You'll thank me later.
