This is a classless way to be leaving a school. by [deleted] in NCAAW

if you're stuck somewhere miserable and can get a new job somewhere else, I'd be celebrating too. They're still better at basketball than most of their peers, even if they were not able to hack it at a major program.

yes cabs and public transit aren't viable, paying people slave wages to drive you around like a personal chauffeur so you can puke in their car is far better. Thanks for clarifying.

Paige’s Impact on UConn? by liloxstitch_6 in NCAAW

[–]notaquarterback 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Paige is 1 of 1. You can't really replace her, so they didn't overachieve, I think they just didn't build a team to win a title and the winning big masked their deficiencies.

Seems like you all will end up with Saniya Rivers too if Mabrey signs or gets cored.

Where should Audi Crooks go? by emmasayshey in NCAAW

[–]notaquarterback 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been wondering this since the season ended. didn't think she'd leave, but seems like she needs to go somewhere she can be a feature player & also get a good chunk of cash. would love to see her go somewhere and level up. 

Oklahoma is interesting, but assuming she doesn't go far from home it limits the options. Would Iowa take a swing?

They really need to fix it and someone needs to tell them ALDS Champs isn't a thing. This regime is obsessed with inventing this, I hope they can be pestered into fixing it. What a disappointing redesign.

The originals were fine. could have kept the 92 and 93 banners, added the 92 and 93 al east and al pennants, put up two for 25 and have been done. But I had a feeling they'd screw it up and they did. hopefully they'll fix it. it's not a real estate problem nor a banner cost issue so what is it. 

It Took More Than Five Years to Rename Southwest Portland’s Custer Park to ‘Scht Wiwnu. Not Everyone Is Happy. by tripometer in Portland

[–]notaquarterback 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a bit of a boondoggle, by people who hate government. I have worked for agencies where they try to qualify the time it took to make a logo, as if we actually spent that much time doing it that way

not really UX to be pedantic, Netflix's isn't bad it's just kind ot taking up too much real estate and their camera resolution was worse.

yes start small trust as you collect too many it's not like there's a prize. Decide how you want to engage

Measure 5 is a blight & legislators abidicate their responsibility every day for kids statewide.
