  1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZhrwS5W2Xk I'm dying over here

    Both the PS4 and Xbox One are sold at a loss, but that's not what Sony nor Microsoft are concerned about. They purposely sell at a loss to acquire a large install base. Most of the money is actually made in software sales and licensing fees.
  4. What an invasion of privacy, I can't believe this story got leaked. It is relieving knowing Monroe didn't hurt anyone though.
  5. "I don't condone hitting women" well done P- "BUT"
  6. Anyone else notice that Danny Ferry has sort of become a real life Ron Burgandy?
  7. There's nothing inherently wrong or politically incorrect with wanting more draw among demographic groups or seeking out resources to increase interest levels among said groups. It's what advertising is all about. When businesses want more sales, they evaluate demographics and strategize accordingly to accommodate for any bodies that could see improvement. I see no difference in a team hiring a player for marketing purposes and a celebrity being hired to market a product, service, or organization because it has the same effect. This isn't defending Levenson, what he did was stereotype African Americans and viewed them as incompatible with white people. I agree with you that a player's talent and fit is what should decide his signing, but not all organizations have this mindset. Winning basketball is more important to the Mavericks and their owner as apposed to... well, us and our ownership. There is no positive context for our situation, I wasn't trying to imply that. There is no excuse for what was said and I will not defend it. I was simply answering the question you posted as to why the nationality of a free agent might sometimes come into play during free agency.
  8. If you don't think Jeremy Lin's nationality and marketability come into effect during his free agent negotiations, you're lying to yourself.
  9. I'm not sure if someone's posted this already, but here's Kareem's take on Levenson.

    Don't expect any love from 2K, last season they had Mike Scott's 3 point attribute at 38..
  11. I'm in the Gwinnett area (around 30 miles from Atlanta) and I try to make it out to ~5 games a season. Between going to school full time and working part time, I can't really find the time to attend more unfortunately. Once I finish my degree and get a real job, the Hawks have themselves a new season ticket holder.
