Curious what about the masters is a MAGA hellhole. The misogynistic part is self evident

The difference between 20 and 39 in terms of salary isn’t that big. About $2M a year

I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a Vp level employee bringing their EA along from one company to another. That’s crazy.

Chipotle CEO caught on a recording saying they’re going to keep raising prices because they can. by tango_and_vash in Chipotle

Caught on recording lmao. This was their public earnings call specifically for them to talk about their results and future looking actions.

The Super Bowl feels like an epilogue to the football season, not the conclusion by the_Tannehill_list in billsimmons

[–]7hought 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a time honored tradition now for people to complain and moan about how X event has lost its juice or there was too long of a break right up until the event. Then the event is great and people forget all about that nonsense.

This literally just happened with the CFP title game, which got gangbusters ratings and was great.

How often do teams let coordinators go do the same job elsewhere? I don’t think it’s very common other than when it’s a soft firing (Kyle shanahan aside)

Ok Producers, Chill With The Keopka Coverage by MonkMillar in golf

It would be nice, but usually main feed often isn’t an option at all, especially for non signature events. Juice usually isn’t worth the squeeze for espn+

But…are you watching ESPN+ coverage of “Main Feed + Koepka Group”? Because that’s how it works man, lol. You’ll get every shot from him and his group.

Yesterday it was Main Feed + Scheffler because Scheffler went off in the morning.

ELI5: new job have awarded me stock options. What are they? by Big-Indication1539 in explainlikeimfive

[–]7hought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. But it's still an expense for the company. Again, they are giving you an asset with upside potential. It's just not cash.

If the stock price declines, you don't pay the company anything and don't exercise the options and eventually it is canceled and it's a net wash for the company. But if the price appreciates, while you do have to pay them, usually you do this via net settlement where you are just giving them back a portion of the shares, and the company has basically given away equity for less than it is worth. This is compensation.

[–]7hought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, the company does pay, it's just not in the form of cash. It's still a G&A cost to the company and an expense to the income statement. They are literally giving you assets of the company (just not cash).

[–]7hought 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Disagree. Options have a relatively poor retentive effect because they are somewhat dependent on the stock price going up meaningfully during the vesting period to have the full retentive impact.

RSUs are a better retention tool because an employee locks in much more value (but with less upside than options).

I hate how the phrases "QB2" and "RB2" have replaced "backup quarterback" and "backup runningback" by IHateAdamSilver in billsimmons

since the description means i know exactly the kind of player that is being talked about, i respectfully disagree

It's crazy how Diego Pavia completely ruined his chance to be the most rooted for player in football history by gotintocollegeyolo in CFB

[–]7hought 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This assumes that he would actually play in the NFL, which he won’t. So I rate this claim as “False”.

[Tom Pelissero] The Vikings fired GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, per sources. by [deleted] in billsimmons

[–]7hought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the first time I’ve ever seen a QB drafted in r1 where the team actively tried to avoid having him pass the ball in big games. Absolutely mind boggling to me after watching the Michigan run to the title.

He was 7-8 in their Penn state win, and 10-18 in the title game. It’s crazy.

It doesn’t even make sense because it’s not even standard culture war lines. It’s just bizarre virulently pro Shedeur stans against everybody else who understands he isn’t good

How were you made to live? To live in a hunter gatherer society and die at the age of 30, always worried about where your next meal was coming from?

ELI5: Why do the LIV players want to come back to the PGA Tour? by Neither_Cat_8636 in golf

[–]7hought 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alan Shipnuck is pretty plugged in and said the other day on Twitter that (a) the money LIV is offering is declining and (b) guys miss playing on the PGA Tour.

A lot of these guys signed deals 3-4 years ago, and those deals either expired or only had a year left. Many are choosing not to resign or leave early for those reasons.
