  1. Maybe you should more often because I had no clue that their sack numbers were up. You learn something new every day.
  2. Compare the guys throwing the ball to all the receivers mentioned already.
  3. I'm all for Elroy snapping and going on an cross-galaxy killing spree.
  4. If this team is a laughing stock, what does that make the 11 other teams with worse records? Yeah, we're all sick of this lame excuse for football, but last time I checked, a good portion of this league sucks. It's not just the Bills.
  5. And the best part? They'll somehow get a tv deal out of all of this. I expect no less.
  6. It's just the way I am. It's not really about upsetting them though. I just want to make sure things are left in a way that things can be continued if I do leave. My name will still be attached to this work after I leave.
  7. Yeah, I guess I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
  8. Are they out of ideas or are they just giving the public what they want to see? There's a reason why shows like American Idol are ratings machines, the american public is stupid.
  9. Part of the problem there is that there really isn't much of a team setting here. It's 3 or 4 doctors and me doing the work for them. They'll all know immediately if I mention something to any of them. I don't know, maybe it's a slight flaw in me that I don't want to suddenly take off, leaving them in a tight spot with no one to finish what I do, since I'm the only one here who actually does that work. I know I need to look out for myself first, but this is a move that would be so out of character for me. I'm also in an interesting situation where the profs I would go to from school actually colaborate with my boss on several projects. If I'm asking anyone for a reference, word will spread. I'd much rather have the news come from me instead of having it heard second hand. I guess I'll deal with that issue if/when people start contacting me.
  10. I hope you don't mind if I borrow this thread for a second. I'm looking for some pointers too. I'm at a point where I want to start looking for a new job. I've been at mine for 5 years and I really feel like I've done just about all I can there and it's time to take that next step. This is the first job I had out of college. Is there any good way to make it known to the current boss that I'm going to start looking? I'm sure I'm going to need the reference at some point, so suddenly asking for that would be an obvious tip off and doesn't seem like the best way to let it be known.
  11. Technically, you didn't even ask a question.
  12. They named the planet Pandora and didn't expect trouble somewhere down the line?
  13. Assuming that his family life wasn't already in shambles. But anyway, I'm a bit confused why it matters what the girl looks like when she's hiding under a desk the entire time.
  14. Just a minor clarification on the rule. A player with junior eligibility can be returned to his junior club at any point, even after he has played in 10 NHL games. It'll never happen though because was that player hits 10 games, it counts as a year of service on his contract, essentially starting the clock ticking towards his free agency status (7 years of NHL/AHL hockey). I guess that could happen if a player really went into the tank and the team needed a roster spot badly.
  15. Was the Kazmir for (not that) Zambrano deal his to or was he already gone at that point?
  16. I like to think that people are smart enough to realize these things when this much legal trouble is on the horizon. But then again, he hasn't exactly earned that assumption from me. Still, this guy's level of media whoring, posting on the TMZ website seems below him. He doesn't get any face time that way.
  17. There's no way his lawyer would let him say anything.
  18. I never played much super nintendo, but I did play a Link to the Past on an emulator. I can see how that would get a #1 spot. I still like the original better though. There's so much nostalgia in that game for me. If I was making an NES list, that would be my #1.
  19. I'm about to get back into the job search for the first time in 5 years and not looking forward to that process at all. Luckily I have that experience now, but I still expect it to be a pain. It sounds like I had some of the same issues you're mentioning. One thing that eventually paid off for me was finding sites focused on listing jobs only in the field I was looking for. I don't know what they would be for you, but if you can find them, it will probably help.
  20. Depending on how they're counting, 2nd in 3 weeks would go back to either Miami or New Orleans.
  21. I have no idea how they pulled that off, but yeah, great work there.
  22. Is there any way to see the entire list? I can't find that option anywhere. I really don't feel like clicking through 100 pages. I will say that it's definitely hard to argue with #1. Mario 3 was an absolute beast when it came out.
  23. Yeah, I think the jokes paint a very clear picture of how most people are viewing this situation.
  24. Is it possible you're misinterpreting his comments? His column in today's paper implies that Sanchez isn't ready to take them to the playoffs today. It's not talking about where his career might go in the future.
  25. It was just a slip up by the refs. They had to deal with a potential brawl on the field and slipped on the details when it was finally time to announce the call. Fair catch or not, you have to let the guy catch the ball, so it's still the same penalty either way.
