SDS

BTW, they don't sign one contract - they sign a series of one-year contracts. Also, the terms are often lengthened to spread out the signing bonus money for cap reasons.

considering your avatar, I'm pretty sure your sense of "creepy" is broken.

At least this one lasted 4 years... Not sure if I'm going to stay in optics, too few opportunities w/ a few too many family disruptions. I did get my TS/SCI CI clearance and I'm considering getting into the software/networking/computer side of life (trying to leverage my clearance). However, the guys at dice.com are suicidal about the state of IT and programming. Is it really that bad? Does anyone know if it is better here in MD? I'm I screwed if I don't have my B.S in C.S. and a litany of other certs?

what world do you live in that you come up with those numbers?

bestfares.com they have a last minute travel section too...

for those who watch The Office - there was a great quote a couple of weeks ago when Pam was discussing the reason why Dwight had both keys to the office and what would happen if Dwight died. Dwight's reply was "If I'm dead then that means the rest of you have been dead for weeks..."

nobody builds a real weapon without govt. contracts. Too risky... If you are at the testing point, then you are already in bed w/ the feds.

maybe... All of them? That is a long, long list. I have this more planned as a drop down menu of the most popular ones.

does one like this exist? If not, this would be a new feature and it would require me finding someone to up keep it. (I have a poor track record of doing this myself ).

front page stuff only.... sorry.

for that weekend or for the full year? Assuming full year.... a link to this: http://www.nfl.com/schedules?seasonType=REG&season=2008 ??? Can that be in a drop down menu (2-clicks) or is that really a single-click item that should have it's own front page real estate?

In my efforts to redesign the site, I want to make sure the necessities are one click away (stuff that isn't front page material of course). Could you take a moment and let me know what links/features you currently would like to be only a click away? (as opposed to being nested in menus, 2nd page, etc...) For example, the schedule, the roster, buffalobills.com, etc...

Well, obviously, the money would be different. The networks would initially bid less because of reduced time, so the NFL would get less, and then the players would get less. OTOH, maybe more people could bare to watch a game w/o TiVo then...? Maybe viewership would increase and the remaining commercials would be more valuable and thus demand more money?

12-1 against the Bills over how many years and how many different head coaches? Solid work NYT.

I still have to get off my ass on the caps...

He spoke at my HS graduation back in '87... We liked it, but then again - what did we know?

I think he's just busting your chops now...

I've never played soccer beyond the backyard and I have no idea if what you wrote has a lick of truth to it, but that was one helluva rant.

well, yes, but if the point was to make some "serious coin" - I doubt the revenue from that 3% would increase substantially. If they wanted to double their income they would have to sell enough merchandise equivalent to all the other teams combined. Given how far fetched that scenario is - "serious coin" would not be made by Ralph.

1st prize went in the mail today... bills_fan: PM your shipping details for the hat.

NFL merchandise is shared equally. The Bills get 3% no matter what their unis look like.

for privacy concerns - you are fine with that.

the higher frequency helps (most scanners don't go that high), but you should check the specs. I don't believe entry models carried the DSS.

No comprende... I'm not sure what you are referring to...

everyone needs to distinguish between the board and the front page. w/o that info - the feedback is meaningless.
