Around SBN: How The Kings Beat The Coyotes: Lather, Rinse, Repeat

2012-chevy-corvette-daytona-prototype-front-top-623x389

The 24 Hours of Daytona is a great sporting event. It's also probably the only thing on TV today that's worth watching. This is a thread for that, as well as squeakyfouls/hockey skillz/assorted drankin'.

I hope to God Brighton beats the Toon today

Mostly because there needs to be at least one non-Premiership team in the FA Cup, and considering that Brighton beat a team I liked (Wrexham) in the last round I want to see them do well.

Judging by past history

Chelsea will draw Brighton or better yet Crawley Town. Then they’ll get Sheffield Wednesday , followed by Leicester and a beatdown of Brum in the Semis because Chelsea isn’t allowed to face someone in the top 1/2 of the prem until the final.

There they will face a squad who had to navigate a minefield of teams like Liverpool, Arsenal Spurs and win 1-0.

the whole world is totally against you bro, I honestly don't know how UK can survive it.

Kilicli was suspended for playing in games with a pro. Not due to benefits he recieved, but because he was on the same team as someone on a professional contract.

Kanter was paid $33k himself, though not under the terms of a contract but in a manner likely designed with an eye towards avoiding NCAA scrutiny later in life.

See the difference?

by better red on Jan 28, 2012 2:27 PM EST up reply actions  

that last part is a bit off

“likely designed with an eye towards avoiding NCAA scrutiny”. Not really sure I would agree about the reasoning. Because, the team stands to benefit from a player not being eligible for NCAA but talented enough to play pro because the pro team has to buy out the contract.

by Cap Town Cat on Jan 28, 2012 2:58 PM EST up reply actions  

the reason for the payment structure is conjecture on my part

My understanding was that Kanter was not on contract but re-imbursed travel fees well in excess of those deemed necessary by the NCAA. I would assume whoever was handling his financial affairs structured that payment arrangement with an eye towards Kanter playing for a college team in the states.

Makes sense. Hell, that’s how I would try to set it up.

It's actually pretty weird

How he got paid and how the money got handled. Not saying weird in a “uh, oh shaddy shit is going down” way, but in a “wow, that is some OCD record keeping” way.

I agree with the rest of your distinction, though. I think it is an important distinction between paid some amount to play on a team vs not being paid but playing on a team with someone who is professional.

Whether or not one should get a pass and the other shouldn’t? I have no clue

So, do you remember when, right after the Rose Bowl, Wisconsin's Assistant AD abruptly resigned and an investigation was launged

Turns out he was accused of sexually assaulting a male UW student at the Rose Bowl party. The student has so far decided not to press charges. Wisconsin is now reviewing whether to change the rules that allow University officials to throw parties for their staff.

This is weird to me.

I don’t disagree, but I’ve also heard the exact opposite argument pertaining to the NFL. There was a TV segment once where they said that WR is the second hardest offensive position to learn (after QB), with all the route adjustments, different releases, etc.

You may be right.

I don’t follow Nascar enough to know all the tendencies. But Pastrana I thought was going to die several times in rally. It’s like, maybe go just a touch slower so that you don’t wrap yourself around a tree before you can learn more.

Block did the same thing at first, but I have to say that he’s gotten significantly better. I don’t think he’ll ever devote the time to really get good with all his other income streams, but he got points in two of the last three rallies.

It's sort of intrinsic to the nature of the show, and the definition of the "brony" audience

It’s entirely possible to make a cartoon aimed at young children that can also be amusing (or at least not painful) for their parents, older siblings, etc. to watch.

However, normal parents don’t go onto the Internet and sperg out over how Spongebob is fuckin’ hilarious lol. Maybe it’s a very small contingent that sits there and dreams up erotic fanfiction of the cartoon, but that doesn’t make much difference in my own assessment of the Internet fandom.

We beat a top-5 Duke team at home the previous year, so it’s not like we hadn’t beaten a good team in forever.

However, it seems to me that the basic “winning” strategy for making an IPA these days is to throw all that out the window and just add hops until it’s off the end of the spectrum.

I haven't tried all the Dogfish Head offerings

maybe because 3/4s of what they make seems to be this or that IPA, and other IPAs have disappointed me. I’ll have to give them another chance.

I have had the World Wide Stout, though, which is equally unbalanced, but to the other extreme. It has like a million kinds of barley and it’s completely motor-oil black. Didn’t matter because after half a bottle I felt like I could see the entire universe.

by Salt on Jan 28, 2012 5:40 PM EST up reply actions  

If you're asking me for an earnest interpretation,

I’d say the first five rules support the notion that strong ideas are conveyed the best when they are conveyed as clearly as possible.

The sixth rule gives writers license to trust their instincts.

by Attie Hat on Jan 28, 2012 6:11 PM EST up reply actions  

My interpretation is that

There is nothing inherently wrong with the passive voice, with more complicated sentence constructions, or with longer words, and all those things exist for reasons. Also, while clarity should be valued, it should not be the only value. To say that those rules are some special edict of “good” writing is just too much.

It’s cool that Orwell qualifies it by giving some additional license, but he’s merely echoing what every other style manual says as well.

by Salt on Jan 28, 2012 6:22 PM EST up reply actions  

Well we wrote this in 1946, so I would say the style manuals have echoed him.

I don’t necessarily disagree with you, but I think Orwell was speaking to the trend of writers masking the weakness of their arguments by making their work unintelligible. Stong ideas should stand to be highly accessible. Limiting your audience is a crutch to avoid too much scrutiny.

(Note: I’m not claiming you support the habit of writers obscuring their arguments. I’m merely offering a defense of Orwell.)

by Attie Hat on Jan 28, 2012 6:29 PM EST up reply actions  

Strunk and White has been around since the 1910s

And Chicago Manual around the same time. But I have no idea how their texts have evolved over the years. It could be that they followed Orwell’s lead.

I would agree that these are good guidelines to follow in non-fiction writing, or in rhetoric. But even then, there are plenty of sentences where they would lose their intended meaning if rendered in the active voice. Many people who cite these kinds or rules don’t even understand what the passive voice is. And there are times when the correct shade of meaning is only available with the use of an unusual word.

I guess I don’t disagree with the overall intent of the rules, but I tend to resist the trend of the rules becoming some sort of immutable religion that draws a line between “good” and “bad” writing. They do nothing of the sort.

by Salt on Jan 28, 2012 6:39 PM EST up reply actions  

Totally agree with you.

I use passive voice frequently, and I think to good effect. I’m speaking more to Orwell’s purpose for writing, not exactly the substance. I think we’re largely in agreement.

by Attie Hat on Jan 28, 2012 6:43 PM EST up reply actions  

The passive voice is used in mathematics, as a matter of conscious choice.

Because what is occurring is more important than who is doing it.

It's really it's own kind of fish. There's only two species in the genus

It’s kind of like a more oily Red Snapper when done right. You have to have a smaller fish for it to taste good, as the bigger fish have tougher meat that is actually closer to chicken in consistency than fish.

Quizno's problem

is that they were unwilling to accept being in the “more expensive but better” niche. You are not going to compete with Subway if your product is not superior, and when Quizno’s decided they HAD to compete with $5 Footlongs, they lost the war immediately.

Since iced coffee comes out cold, it won't melt ice like hot coffee and destroy the point of getting it black.

Sometimes standard brew put in the fridge, sometimes they brew it cold.

Iced coffee can tend to taste funny because it sits out for a while before you drink it.

Because of that, I go with iced Americanos on Ice since the heat melts ice only to the point that it’s a little stronger than regular coffee; cold water topping it off doesn’t water it down a ton unless you are Starbucks because they hate putting in enough ice.

Yeah, but I did a lot of coldbrewing experiments, and it still didn't tatse great to me.

And a few smaller places just let their coffee that has been out too long sit in the fridge, call it iced coffee, and charge a premium.

One technique we've seen: brew it WAY over strength, way stronger than normal coffee

then when you put in normal ice cubes, it evens out the taste. I don’t brew my own cold coffee (just get it iced out), but that might work.

I had to listen through it first before I linked it, just in case my partner (who does the editing) did anything strange with it. He randomly puts in sound clips at times he thinks are funny.

I let him do it, as long as it's tasteful. Sometimes he has to be reminded of that.

There are a few joke “commercials” he posted in our early episodes that reference a satire website another friend of ours has. The joke is the guy is an American actor in Japan who stars in bizarre, soft-pornish samurai movies. So this “commercial” had a woman’s orgasming voice in the background the whole time. You might miss if it you aren’t listening for it, but I told him that was WAY OVER THE LINE.
