Failed City Detroit grovels for bailout
....lybob replied to DaveinElma's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Harvard MBAs bean counters decontenting and Blandernizing the product- and it might be happening again at GM after they started making decent product again, Bob Lutz offered to un-retire to stop the insanity - of course it's not only an American thing cause it happened at Toyota the bean counters took charge and a bunch of their pushed out engineers fled to Hyundai where they are treated like gods and pushing Hyundai to compete with everyone. -
Residency requirement for Buffalo teachers?
....lybob replied to Beerball's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I wonder about this, maybe science and math- but I know it's almost impossible to get a Job in the Buffalo school district in History, English, Primary, and to a lessor extent Special education- we graduate a huge number of teachers in this area and most are going west or south, plus in special education we cycle through young teachers who stay a year or two then go west or south- some come back once they fatten up their resume but many find they can live without 5 months of cold gray weather. -
The drafting was pretty bad but so was position coaching and (strength and conditioning) players should really see huge improvement from first to second year and significant improvement from second to third year- but a number of Bills draftees actually looked weaker with worse technique as time went on- I'm really interested on how Troup, Bell, Carrington, Spiller, and some others are making progress- on other teams I've seen guys gain 20lbs of muscle between 1st and 2nd year with no loss of athletic skill- I can't think of any Bills off hand who have in the last 10 years- I remember hearing Preston Duke gained 20lbs and being excited only to have him look 25lbs fatter.

What I want to know, is with all the hardcore creationist out there how come no one has sued Monsanto for prior art.

Actually a huge problem at the school I worked at, children that should be getting 10-12 hours sleep were getting 6 plus whatever they got sleeping on the bus or desk.

well actually only the good Christians get raptured up on May 21 2011, everyone else dies in some sort of misery between then and Oct 21 2011 when the whole world is destroyed- so you might only lose 14 freaking months.

Bills doctors clear Bowers knee
....lybob replied to BeastMode54's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm never sure what they mean when they say a knee is medically cleared- McGahee knee was finally healed but he was a 4.6 typed guy after it healed while before the injury he was like a 4.3 type guy- Bower for me he had to run under 4.75 to get consideration for top 5 (he was hyped as a guy who runs 4.6-4.7) but Bower ran a 4.9 for his pro day now if he runs again before the draft and goes in the low 4.8s well then I could at least feel he is regaining his explosiveness, Fairley's shoulder injury could probably hold him down a little bit because he hasn't benched at all- it's just another layer of risk, you get Bower at 20 and he comes back a 100% and you're a genius- you take him at 12 he never regains his explosiveness and you're a moron. -
I don't care too much about CEO pay unless the company is getting a government bailout or I own the stock - There has been legislation proposed that would give shareholders a greater say in CEO compensation but it can't seem to get much traction. The compensation for U.S. executives are greater than European or Asian executives for a given sized company about double that of their European counterparts and more than double their Asian counterparts. I'm less concerned with fairness than fraud even legalized fraud like accounting rules that allow companies to hold loses off balance and misuse of restatement of earnings.restatement of Earnings Restatement of earnings becomes an issue if CEO compensation is influenced by the original statement and there is no clawback provision for a lower restatement.

Dear Oscar the Crotch, you disparaging anyone for emoticon usage is hilarious. Sincerely Yours, Anyone with the misfortune to have read your posts

When the draft process first started Fairley was overvalued and Dareus was undervalue now the reverse is true- neither guy is Suh but they are both pretty good- Fairley IMO is not Sapp but may be a an upper-middle class Darnell Dockett- Fairley may be slightly more naturally athletic than Dockett but hasn't as yet put the weight room work in. The shoulder injury and coming to combine about 10lbs less than expect hurt Fairley while Dareus helped himself by coming 10lbs heavier and maintaining his athleticism. BTW I have trouble finding a good pro comparison for Dareus - the Best I can think of is falling between Cullen Jenkins and BJ Raji

What are you kidding this is the one thing that makes perfect sense- yes as long as it's polluting someone else's ocean- btw didn't you get the memo, we are saving the oil closest to us for last, it's one of the few things that might save us from irrelevance in the future. -
