One of those times when stiffness isn't a good thing

I'm in the absolute minority thinking we are a different team with Gainey. I think he creates separation better. Definitely like his shot over ZZ's.

There are just times ZZ has to be the offense. Its a nice change of pace.

Ive said since D1 I like our smaller lineup better than big. Get Zadrunas out on the perimeter, or creating his own looks versus running the offense through him.

well was half right

Crazy. Thank you CRB and TBA!!

For anyone who wasn't able to see today's beatdown of Florida (or at least the second half), if you didn't record it, remember that our man Freak has it. #22

This has been an amusing discussion as it appears your complete focus has been on compensation which reflects your lack of experience (imo). I would suggest you demonstrate how you could implement process changes that increase efficiency, potentially reduce headcount and add value to the organization.

These are the traits I wanted when replacing or adding staff. Worked my way up the finance ranks of a MNC (staff, internal audit, corp, M&A, outsourcing/insourcing, global finance services) and then went into consulting. Improving an organization is more important to management.

Well yeah, because this is just about if I get the offer.

I've already situated my resume and selling points to efficiency savings via automation and improving forecasting abilities with analytics. There are plenty of CI and improved analytical opportunities to this position that the prior employee had little sense of. She only had intermediate Excel skills, zero adv statistical, programming, ETL, RPA, or AI knowledge.

I'll certainly be doing as you mention and selling them on improvements, but all of this will be discussed prior to any negotations. Value-adds will already be well known.

Appreciate it

I bought my friend an elephant for his room.

He said, ,"thanks"

I said, "Don't mention it."

Broome literally walks everytime he touches the ball... unbelievable it's never called

That play where Mash saved it and Bishop gave it back to Cade for the slam is one of the best of the year.

Just a hell of a play by Mash...the reflexes to steal that pass. He's about near perfect on the defensive end of a basketball court. Just relentless.

What a great play, all three of those guys!

smaller lineup is faster and fresher, we've not been able to run with teams

Just a section of the finger right? Not the whole finger?

Yep i think they took about half of it. Regardless, he would have been paid the same $$$ to sit on the bench or couch. He cut it off so he could play (vs the cowboys IIRC) in the playoffs and he did. Lott and Atwater were killers. Theres some good video of Steve Atwater meeting RBs in the hole (and in the air on FB dive plays) and blowing them up despite giving up 20+ pounds to them. Those guys knew how to impact the game by being physical. WRs were scared to catch the ball on crossing routes and deep balls...ducking to avoid contact instead of stretching to make the catch. It was fun to watch them play.

* I think it was Lotts ring finger btw...not his pinky. Dont see how that matters much for a DB though...a finger is a finger. Losing a thumb would suck.

So does Edwards (I think) #22 on Kentucky

Is the bball team 17-4 or 4-17?

Yeah, 18-4 now. As for the haters and sad sacks, not merely crickets, but…
