  1. Posting this in the football thread since this is where it's gonna have the biggest impact: http://www.offtackleempire.com/2014/3/26/5550452/breaking-news-capa-wins-at-nlrb-northwestern-players-to-vote-on Thoughts? Obviously this is just the start, and THIS PARTICULAR RULING only applies to private schools, but it sets a precedent and it will likely hit the Supreme Court here before too long. IMO, unionizing is a very dumb and shortsighted solution to the athlete-student-slave problem. This creates just as many problems as it solves, just at the other end of the spectrum. This might not be a huge deal for the huge big name schools, but this is absolutely going to kill the smaller schools' unprofitable programs.
  2. I personally don't think it's a big deal. His job is to bring successful coaches in, who's job is to bring successful teams is, all in the name of generating money and building the brand. I'd be more alarmed if it was some astronomical (read: 7 figure) amount, but $18k is less than a molecule of a drop of water in the figurative money bucket at OSU.
  3. I'll jump on the G2 train as well. Amazing phone at a great price. Best battery on the market right now too, even outperforms the Maxx in any real world testing. Mine has lasted > 48 hours (wifi/bluetooth off, ~4 hours of screen time during this period) on one charge before too. Camera is comparatively slightly worse than others on the market in low light, but definitely not unusable by any means. Some people have complained that the speaker isn't loud enough but it's been more than fine for me through both the headphone jack and loudspeaker. Stupid fast processor, big beautiful screen, 32gb onboard storage, multitasks great. Now if Verizon would freaking port 4.4 already... 10/10 would recommend.
  4. Fuck this shit I'm moving to Texas. Someday.
  5. I'm a bit of an adrenaline junkie. Always had a sweet spot for sport bikes because they are the cool, got my first learner bike (2010 Ninja 250R, special edition lime green, should you guys ever see it at a meet) last fall, looking to get a GSX-R 600 or ZX-6 this year. The bike I bought is stupid clean and I love the open air. Hocking Hills is super fun on a bike.

    Missing Plane

    Yeah that seems incredibly risky and quite a hefty heist to pull off for sole ownership of a royalty-free patent for optimizing the number of dies on a wafer... Interesting as fuck though, good info.
  7. Would love to drive the 86 for you if something falls through.
  8. Subaru releases a turbo version, Scion releases a convertible. Check this post in 1 year.

    Missing Plane

    Be Jones, spend life savings on GTR, be forced to fly broke dick 3rd World Air.
  10. First thought when I saw your comment was of disgust, read the article, and I actually have more respect for the filmmakers than I started with. Can't wait to see it. Thanks for posting this.

    Missing Plane

    Attempted terrorists didn't know how to fly a plane, instead tried to transform into a submarine (it kinda looks the same without wings amirite?), fucked up and killed everybody without blowing up the White House as the spirit of Osama asked them to do. No virgins for them.
  12. Slightly off topic, but what's your real world MPGs in that car? Debating on getting a slightly used one...
  13. Like 2900 RPMs at 70, 2013 Ford Focus 2.0L, 5 speed manual transmission. Cruise control at 70 will net me 32 MPGs+ all day long. I can hit, and hold, 40 MPG in this car with cruise at 55. EDIT: 89 octane, to clarify since these are also flex fuel vehicles. Haven't really played around with e85 too much.
  14. It all comes down to the energy markets. Surely you've heard of the shale gas revolution?
  15. I want to hear ZERO bitching from Europe after we save the day if this shit starts to get heated. Don't want us to be world police? Then do your fucking part in keeping these shitheads at bay, too. The Putins and Jong-Ils of the world will continue to exist so long as the world allows it. Nut the fuck up and these upstart clowns wouldn't be doing this shit.
  16. I have the G2 and it's absolutely fantastic. Better than the S4 in every category, except MAYBE the camera - and even that's up for debate depending on the kind of photos you take. You can make this phone last 3+ days very easily if you absolutely needed to, processor is a beast, and it runs absolutely any game you can throw at it perfectly. I wouldn't be surprised if this thing could run some PS3/Xbox 360 games when emulators get more ironed out.
  17. Long shot with the age, but has she been spayed by chance? If so, I'd love to see her.
  18. Fuck that shit. Bad enough I'm being forced to pay for citizens who choose not to work, but illegal immigrants now? Fuuuuuuuck that. This fucker needs impeached.
