  1. Take a nice break from the retard rodeo?
  2. Um, I don't think spending a first round pick on a spread offense QB with an injured throwing arm would be wise at all. He's out 4-6 months after wednesday and its possible he'll even miss the combine.
  3. I'll take Reed with hands and marginal speed vs. Parrish's good speed with no hands any day of the week and twice on Sundays
  4. Too bad Firefox doesn't have a grammar check program as an add-on
  5. I appreciate all the insight guys, it has given me a few new angles to look at. Quick update. Went for my interview at Aldi today...interviewer/district manager is a no show, knew he'd be a no show and doesn't call me to let me know. The store manager got a hold of him and told me he'd call me later today to reschedule. I understand people get busy and what not, but really was it that tough to take 30 seconds call me to let me know, especially after I wanted 40 minutes just to find out he wasn't coming.
  6. I agree, McCoy is one of the better QBs out there in this draft, but he's going to need to be in the right system. A West Coast passing attack would be ideal outside of a spread offense for him. His stock really slipped after a poor performace against Oklahoma, but he's still looking to be the only 1st round QB in 2010. I still like LeFavour and Hiller thus far
  7. Faustus, this page has a link to a ton of federal auctions. Just pay close attention to what you bid on, and if you have the means, research the property thoroughly prior to bidding. http://www.ustreas.gov/auctions/
  8. Ugh, isn't that the age old question. Truthfully, when I went to WVU for Sport Management my goal was to become an Athletic Director or work in a front office in pro sports. However, to even sniff a job like that, you gotta know someone who knows someone who probably slept with someone. I'm still looking in that field, Teamwork online pretty much lists everything. Just haven't gotten a hit yet. Otherwise, what I'm looking to do is just about any type of management. My education has been in business administration and technology management, but most of my work experience has been in law enforcement. The toughest time I've had is trying to tie what I did as a police officer over to the business world. I'm hoping that when I get my MBA this spring that will help me some too, but I'm not holding my breath. Just an example of a typical week for me doing a job search. I check the area classifieds, I check craigslist, I check USAjobs.gov, I'll check the big three job searches, then linkedin/indeed, teamwork online, and a few companies I've had interest in. As I wrote this post, I received an email from the department of homeland security about some contract specialist positions and they are requesting more information from me. this, plus the Aldi interview is the most attention I've gotten since last October.
  9. I'm not too worried about Danny Paille coming back to haunt us
  10. Havent but that'll give me something to read. ThanksLana Oh, also, I have a tentative interview set up with Aldi, but wasn't told what the position was. Waiting to see what this is all about.
  11. I think job fairs are much better too. I was recently at one down at WVU and thought I had made some good contacts, but no calls or emails even after follow up. Love the Polo shirt comment. LOL. I saw plenty of them walking around the career fair too.
  12. Haven't had much luck with DICE, most jobs are looking for more experience than I have in IT. Well, paper experience. Quick rundown of skills. Bachelors in Sport Management, MBA-Technology Management to be complete in March. All my IT type work has been done on my own so technically no professional experience. I would like to get my certs, but i'm kinda strapped for cash for those at the moment. Work experience includes Law Enforcement, some retail and service industry, and an internship as a Database Administrator.
  13. Aint that the truth. I really need to work on networking, something I neglected near the end of college.
  14. My job search has really taken a toll on me since July and I think I've looked at every possible site with no real prospects. Monster, Careerbuilder, HotJobs, Linkedin, and Craigslist have netted me a lot of applications, but only 1 interview...for a minimum wage job...for which I was declined (talk about a kick in the balls, I swear finishing my MBA is a waste of money) Anyways, does anyone have any recommendations for job searching that has gotten them good results? I need a new place to start looking so I was hoping you guys might have a few places I should try looking.
  15. I know. I feel bad for the next kid who's dad leaves a flying saucer unattended in the backyard for him to play in.
  16. I don't think losing haynesworth caused Collins to not be able to hit the broadside of a barn with the football.
  17. I agree Fouts is actually entertaining to listen to, its just he didn't seem to know anything about the teams except what was on the paper in front of him.
  18. Not so much giving up on him as I am not wanting to see a work in progress getting our QBs killed. Let him learn in practice.
  19. I don't know. Fouts thought it was pretty dumb to not have the best punt returner in the league out there today. apparently he didn't catch the past few weeks highlights.
  20. I agree. I don't really want Bell out there if we can help it. Anyone able to figure out WTF Bell was doing on the Fitzpatrick pass they called a fumble at first? Personally, I'd look for a vet at LT rather than another draftee right now. need some experience out there. Not sure who's available off the top of my head. I'll look tomorrow.
