Trayvon Martin
QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Feb 17, 2014 -> 03:34 PM) SVU will do it. They've already done Trayvon Martin and Ariel Castro episodes this season. Wow are you kidding me? That's so tactless.

Jim Bowden predicts Jose Abreu as favorite for AL ROY
QUOTE (Tex @ Feb 17, 2014 -> 09:29 AM) I tend to agree. It does come down to where they have been playing. Japan certainly qualifies as above US AAA ball. TUC would strongly disagree as he as clearly stated that the NPB sucks dick.

Trayvon Martin
QUOTE (mr_genius @ Feb 17, 2014 -> 02:57 PM) haha, it's inevitable now. Law and Order has a tendency to pick these up. Remember the Anna Nicole Smith episode right after she died? Yeah, it's happening.

So if the AG did file it would that mean you would stop b****ing?

2014-2015 NFL Football thread
QUOTE (iamshack @ Feb 15, 2014 -> 11:01 AM) The texts about Vegas are the most illustrative to me. Incognito is just insulting him in a 1-on-1 situation and Martin is like "Yeah, I miss being demeaned by all of you." I mean come on dude...you think that is going to make these guys respect you? Additionally, the texts to his parents. He clearly has some emotional issues that make it almost impossible to function in this environment unless he's got some teammates or coaches really looking out for him. Victim blaming eh?

2014-2015 NFL Football thread
Man, I don't know what universe Incognito comes from but if anyone talked about my sister like that, they'd be six feet under. Martin was trying to suck it up this whole time but the reality of the matter is, he shouldn't have had to.

Job Hunt Thread
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 12, 2014 -> 02:00 PM) Be prepared to walk away, and do NOT bluff. Yeah I would not bluff. It sucks though because my division is 5 people including our division head. One person leaving is pretty detrimental but if I left too, that might be bordering catastrophic. I wonder if I do this right if they will cave.

Job Hunt Thread
Professional question. So I stated earlier that I got a pretty dismal raise for having such an excellent review. It turns out, they probably used the money pooled for my division to give another member a promotion raise. She decided she's leaving now and I was thinking of asking for a salary adjustment. I figured the straight forward approach would probably get me laughed at. I am going to get an offer letter with a greater salary and hopefully use that as leverage for salary adjustment. This job is good but the pay is just crap. That's why I would like to stay but the monetary reasons are starting to become glaring each day. I'm not saying this idea is or isn't good but I wanted to get some input from people who have been in this s*** a lot longer than I have.

Asking Prices Beginning to Fall
QUOTE (Marty34 @ Feb 4, 2014 -> 12:43 PM) Four years ago, no. The Sox were tapped out of cash after they signed him and still needed help. They still need lots of help, but they have cash to spend. You probably want to spend your cash on actually "help" and not spend money just to spend it. I'm pretty sure that's how you end up bankrupt.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 30, 2014 -> 04:45 PM) "Man, you'd sure have egg on your face if I didn't make a dumb, bad throw!" I don't know if Sherman's going to be able to recover from that mentally by Sunday. Sherman is probably laughing his ass off.
