2012-2013 NFL Thread
QUOTE (daa84 @ Sep 24, 2012 -> 11:43 PM) There's an enormous amount of observational bias in this as well. We know the refs are replacements, thus missed calls seem that much more obvious. What is most likely true is that we fail to realize how many calls the normal refs miss, and also tend to overreact/over estimate the number that the replacements are making That said, there is still an obvious difference Regular refs makes plenty of their own bad calls, but they understand the basic rules of the games. They don't give extra timeouts and challenges left and right, they don't put the ball on the wrong 44 yard line, they don't take 7-10 minutes to make a relatively simple call. We've had three solid weeks of refs not knowing the rules and blowing major calls in multiple games now, all so that the teams can save about $100,000 a year.

When what goes what other way? I'm not following.- The Democrat Thread
The message of the comic is that Romney's 47% of irresponsible, lazy, worthless Americans living off of government subsidization because they don't pay income taxes includes guys like him. The economy doesn't need more guys like Romney who continue to hoover up most of the wealth in the country while receiving the lion's share of the benefits of tax expenditures. I think most of his $4m charitable donations went to the LDS. Given the size of the commercial operations they run, the amount of money they spend on fancy buildings and the political campaigning they bankroll, I think classifying it as selfless charity is a bit dubious.- The Democrat Thread
By his own definition, yeah. Which is why his definition is pretty dumb.- The Democrat Thread

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 24, 2012 -> 08:51 AM) My TE's f***ing sucked (Gates, Celek) which cost me a win. Add to that Colston still looking like s*** and now I need a WR. I have the same TE's. They definitely didn't help my cause this week.- Technology catch-all thread
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 24, 2012 -> 08:39 AM) With all of the hikers out there, maybe someone can help me. We do a decent amount of hiking with the kids at the state park. What I'd like to be able to do is find an app that I am able to tag/flag certain points along the trails for points of interest, that way I can view how far away those certain points are on a different day when we are out hiking. Does that exist in a free app? Google's "My Tracks" is free. GPS-tracking of your route, time, speed, elevation gain, etc. and it can be exported to google maps and google earth. e.g. here's one of our hikes in Yosemite from this year: https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=213524...783d1&msa=0- The Miami Marlins thread
