2010-2011 NBA Thread
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 23, 2011 -> 02:26 PM) What I don't understand is Kobe being fined $100k by the league, Joakim getting about the same I reckon, and yet LeBron calls a reporter's question "retarded" and the NBA doesn't care? If you are going to throw blanket punishment to protect minorities, I don't see why the "retarded" comment would go unpunished. No joke. What is the difference between using one of them to mean stupid versus the other one? They both use the assumption that the underlying group of people are somehow automatically less smart than you are.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ May 23, 2011 -> 01:41 PM) That's going to be a problem since they're not even on the job search radar right now. People post profiles there but nobody recruits from there...it's more like a personal networking site so people can feel important or something, I'm not even sure. I've had a LinkedIn profile for years and never actually searched around the site, and really don't care to do so. Monster and Dice are FAR more popular job search engines. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't even think of using LinkedIn to search for a job...it's the last place I'd go. That's the big problem as I see it. There is a lot of competition already in the market they are going into. It is much harder to make money that way.

You are also there to teach other skills besides the knowledge in a class, work ethic being one of them. If he doesn't work, he doesn't pass IMO.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 23, 2011 -> 12:56 PM) I don't think you mean this as literally as you seem to, but this is kind of a ridiculous statement. Potential growth doesn't have value? "Value" is a completely fabricated construct anyway. So LinkedIn has 40 times the growth potential as Apple? I don't buy that for a second.

Alexei Ramirez, maturing hitter
QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ May 23, 2011 -> 12:43 PM) Of course, I expect a dramatic increase in Gordon's OBP, or I wouldn't consider him for the two hole, and Morel's is bound to go up, or we'll go with (overuse) Omar. I wouldn't make the Beckham move today, let's see how Gordon performs over the next few weeks. Really liking his defense. Plenty of OBP potential in that lineup, IMO. Lexi's at .354, and if that doesn't go up at all, it's still OK for the time being. He's on pace for more walks than Juan has ever had in a season in his career. And does anyone here expect him to hit for a lower BA than our over-the hill LF? I wouldn't rule out Morel in the looonng run as a two-hitter, though not likely this season, but who knows? I'm not THAT worried about the two hole, that's Ozzie's bunting position and, as others have pointed out, Lexi's not not so good at that anyway. Hell, why not just switch Lexi and Juan for the near term? Maybe even try Teahen there a bit when he returns. To be fair, you are measuring him off of his hottest streak of the year.

2011 White Sox Catch-All Thread
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 23, 2011 -> 12:32 PM) United Airlines. The official airline of your Chicago White Sox. It sounded like the weather was really bad. I read someone else say that the Rangers got diverted to Little Rock for the same reason.

2010-2011 NBA Thread
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 23, 2011 -> 12:22 PM) And by and large, they still haven't ran the pick and roll with Boozer, who is one of the best bigs (along with Bosh) in the league at running a pick and roll offense. The Bulls need to add another threat throw, where you have another slasher on the initial pick and roll so that Boozer can make the next pass when necessary and try to find the ocassional easy lay-in/point in the paint. That is one coaching point I haven't gotten is why we don't use Booz in that set at all? He can shoot and he can pass, which is exactly what you need. The only other big we have who can do both is Thomas.

2010-2011 NBA Thread
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 23, 2011 -> 12:16 PM) That's why they need to abandon the pick and roll, or at least limit it substantially. Spread the offense out and let one of them guard Rose one on one. He'd eat them alive with his speed. For the pick and roll to really work, you have to have two guys who can hit a jumper. Otherwise there really isn't any deterrent to going under.
