2011 TV Thread
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 30, 2011 -> 10:15 AM) I was losing it through the entirety of Parks & Rec last night. Sunny was just ok. Same old s***, really. I'm close to dropping Community and The Office. I just don't care about those anymore. Frank Reynolds' busted up face had me rolling the whole time. I wish they would have incorporated a scene towards the end where his nose started uncontrollably blleding while he was emceeing on stage. We caught Whitney last night. Painful.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 30, 2011 -> 09:07 AM) That run game can keep Brady off the field I agree with that but the Raider secondary is already banged up. This could be a blood bath.

Any chance the Raiders upset the Pats?

Technology catch-all thread
QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Sep 29, 2011 -> 03:40 PM) Get the Galaxy and call it a day. Then again, I think they're also supposed to get the S2, so I might just wait for that. I could be wrong on that though. No you're right. Wait for the GS2. I have Sprint's version and it's insane.

If only they could do a 3 man booth with Wimpy. I'd be very happy.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 28, 2011 -> 01:42 PM) I like the specificity of my 375 applications better. That number seems too unrealistic. It's all round numbers these days.

Don't love him but I could see why they'd want to keep him around. The average fan loves him.

Unemployed Need Not Apply
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 28, 2011 -> 01:37 PM) In that case, for the reasons I mentioned, they really are stupid. It also means that those companies have no confidence in their own recruiting and screening personnel and procedures to hire a good candidate. I'm trying to play devil's advocate here. You get 500 resumes for 1 position to fill. 300 of the resumes are from people that are currently working, making their current employer more efficient and profitable...adding value. 200 resumes are from people who haven't worked in 2 years. How sharp are they after that time off? What skills have they learned during that time? Not saying this is what they're thinking or that it's right but I bet it's part of their thought process.

Unemployed Need Not Apply
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 28, 2011 -> 01:33 PM) I wondered the same thing, and I honestly can't figure it out. Maybe someone can illustrate for me why the policy makes any sense. I just assumed that employers considered the unemployed as the bottom of the barrel.

Just wanted to add a "Good riddance!" to Greg Walker. Seemed like a nice guy but he wasn't very good at his job.- Ozzie Guillen Released from Contract
QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 28, 2011 -> 10:37 AM) I still can't get over he did it the night before Buehrle's potential last game. Money is #1 in Ozzie's book.- Ozzie Guillen Released from Contract
QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 28, 2011 -> 10:26 AM) guillen was not shown the door he left and quit on his team two with two games left. he cut a deal with Florida and strong armed JR his "father figure"to let him go. guilles at the end of the day was all about money and left the White Sox the same way he did in the late 90's like some spoiled ass child that thinks everyone owes him something The fact that nobody even cares to bring this up in teh medai shows that it was time for him to go and nobody really cares I love this post. Too bad greg will completely ignore it. He hates facts.- In Memoriam: 2011 Chicago White Sox

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 28, 2011 -> 10:07 AM) The Help-Wanted Sign Comes With a Frustrating Asterisk This seems like a pretty terrible trend. I'd imagine there would have to be some way to incentivize businesses away from these sorts of policies. I read somewhere that either a city or state is trying to pass legislation to make this an illegal practice.- Jeff Cox Spills the Beans??
QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 28, 2011 -> 09:58 AM) Where are there reports about his managerial style? Haven't seen anything published. Which one are you referring to? Sandy? If so, that's just my uninformed impression. - I have Officially Conceded the Season is Over
