Disappointed, but I liked how the end of the season went. SIU showed a lot of improvement after a dreadful start and non conference record. And yea, Jake Odum is a punk and Smithpeters got burned by a terrible call when Odum grabbed him

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 07:24 PM) We Bulls fan just never learn. Tiger Woods will date a black girl before the Bulls land Carmelo. I don't think it will happen, but it is fun to hope for. And admittedly it became interesting over the past week, out of nowhere

Teen Sues Parents
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 02:09 PM) IIRC your parents' income counts against you when trying to get student loans up until age 25, so she does sort of get f***ed over in that sense. Her parents won't be paying but, because of her parents' income/wealth, she won't be eligible for subsidized loans and grants. One of my parents' friends did something similar with their daughter, or at least the father did. He makes good money ($150k+), she got straight-A's through every step of school, but he refused to pay one penny because his parents didn't pay for his. So instead his wife got a full-time job just to pay for their daughter's school. And it's not like she went to Harvard unsubsidized or something, she went to ISU. edit: my wife's parents didn't pay for any of her school, either, but she had a decent inheritance from an uncle that passed in the 90's that covered most of it. The point is there are many options, and in the end college is optional, not mandatory. Me and you both have no idea what she is eligible for, has applied for, been denied. All we know right now is this girl is saying that her parents owe her college tuition. To that, I disagree

Teen Sues Parents
The way I look at it is that she is no longer a minor under their guardianship. Unless they signed some sort of contract guaranteeing that they will pay for her schooling past high school, then they dont owe it to her. I have no idea why they chose not to pay for it, if they are not financially able to do so or if they had a falling out, but she has many options to get her schooling paid for through grants and loans. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 02:05 PM) No I already said before that this seems pretty dumb, but there was a lot of talk about how entitled kids are these days, how could they expect this? etc. but then oh by the way my parents paid tens of thousands of dollars for my tuition, room and board. There is so much of the story that is unknown by us though. She could be(and given the nature of this lawsuit, probably is) a total B****, and they might have gotten sick of her act. My dad paid for my schooling, and I was very appreciative of that because I know that he didnt have to do that.

True, but I would really be wary about signing a contract with the Oakland Raiders. The ghost of Al Davis still hangs around making things crazy

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 06:56 AM) Yeah, if my agent was a string bean I'd be looking to make a change as well. Or, if i started the offseason thinking 4/100 and halfway through spring training I still have no team, then I would change my agent too.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 6, 2014 -> 12:28 PM) I know this is true but also know that I'm going to be convincing myself that there's a chance up until the obvious happens. I cant imagine Melo has really enjoyed his time in new york. He has one good season sandwiched between two mediocre and miserable seasons. I think there is a chance, but Melo will have to want it.

everyone knows it comes to money for Melo. If he feels like he needs the Max, then he needs to accept that he probably wont be winning a championship any time soon.
