This is a ****ty trial

Toure's not helping by saying, "yes mr chairman." Might be mitigating risk but you're still benefiting from the short position (provided you're not also long underlying)

GS are no saints, but the SEC has nothing. A market maker need not disclose his counterparties.

Bloomberg tv has it live. 1:39pm - Did Goldman do anything wrong in the process of synthetic CDO’s, Sen Jon Tester asks. Mr Sparks said the bank didn’t do anything wrong but that it did make some mistakes and deals that didn’t work out. Now Mr Tester wants to know about the history of synthetic CDOs and how they actually work. Mr Sparks struggles to answer succinctly and Mr Tester calls the whole practice gambling. Ok so you want to judge an entire firm based on something you don't even know how it works???

Anyone else enjoying the witch hunt? http://blogs.ft.com/gapperblog/2010/04/ms-...ng-latest-news/

Something created by Habs fans last year. The truth about Zdeno.

Bastard I'll get you back

Ok well if he ends up being a superstar and avoids running over people with his escalade, i'll owe you a big apology

Is there one out there without terrible music?

Depends on your viewpoint. I always base myself on defense > offense. Therefore, a top DE/LB is better for me than a top RB. Anyways to be honest I don't watch college football so i can only say so much based on the evaluations on espn/cnnsi but I was just hoping that the defense would be shored up.

I see what you're saying, I just don't think that he will be able to contribute because of everyone else around him. A playmaker complements a good team, a playmaker has little impact on a bad team. I.E. Adding Randy Moss to the Oakland Raiders compared to the Pats. Of course I hope you're right and the coaching staff knows what they're doing.

I didn't follow the Saints that much but I don't recall Bush being a contributing factor to their SB run. I think he's a great complement if you have an already effective offense but will the one dimensional offense that is the Buffalo Bills be able to produce more with this guy?

Wouldn't Lee Evans, Marshawn Lynch, TO ... considered playmakers? Something Buffalo has lacked for a very long time is a QB, OL and TE. Without that, what difference will a playmaker make? Losing 34-7 instead of 34-0?

How many of them were DC Tom?

Amazing that I went to Italy and never ended up going to Rome. I will soon though, very soon.

I think goalie analysis is something that escapes many. I remember the days when Grant Fuhr was enough to win a cup, obviously you'd need a 90 goal scorer in front of him though

Why waste time worrying about poverty and global warming? NSFW

Well you could do the following : 1) Play soccer 2) Get abducted 3) See huge round booties in thongs on the beach 4) Go to carnival and refer to # 3 That's all i got

I don't know if I would take my children to Brazil though (if I had). Many friends of mine have went and it's great but more for the party atmosphere and weather. If I had to go somewhere for a family visit, probably Tokyo.

Brazil.
