    the thread about nothing...

    Random pet peeve of mine...even though I'm a big sports fan too, I think way too many people take sports too seriously. This goes for NBA, NFL, MLB, whatever. At the end of the day, you "support" the team but the truth is your favorite team could care less who you root for, they just want you in...

    What's the biggest L you've ever taken?

    The most recent L I took was a car accident I got into, that was definitely my fault. :lol It was early morning, so I figured I'd get gas before work. I pulled into the gas station, needed to make a U-turn to get to the pump I wanted. Went pretty quick on the U-turn and hit a concrete...

    Being in Silicon Valley (San Jose area) -Standard of living here is absolutely incredible. -So many top-notch employers around, especially if you're interested in a tech company (Facebook, Apple, Google, Tesla, you name it, it's probably here). -Diversity -One hour away from San Francisco -A...

    Jordan Brand will be remastering (building better quality shoes) starting in 2015

    Nike/JB has been super slick with the way they've increased retro prices and used the limited release strategy to create hype to sell their shoes. I don't think the strategy can last long-term if they hope to continue the brand and be successful the way they have in the last 10-15 years (with...

    2013-2014 NBA Season Thread - Congrats to the Spurs, DBD is still a buster

    Shaq wouldn't have won without a Kobe-type player on his side, just like Kobe wouldn't have won without Shaq in the post. Even though talent and skill dictates who wins in many games, championship teams are formed because they play together well as a TEAM, not as individual players.

    2013-2014 NBA Finals - Spurs SMASH Heat 4-1 - San Antonio Spurs NBA Champions [RIP Dwyane Wade]

    It's a team sport, you have to surround yourself with other great players to win a title. It's unfair to knock LeBron for that because all the other superstars had help as well.

    3 years isn't a lot but if you can write a good app and explain your job well enough you'll be fine. I have 3 this year as well- I think it definitely hurt me at some schools where the average is higher, but at some schools it isn't a big deal. Just to give you an example, Duke's MBA program has...

    To me, it's funny how a lot of the people getting on Bron have Laker avatars...coincidence?? If you're an athlete and a competitor, like LeBron or anyone else, you want to be out there on the floor especially for a Finals game. Anyone who's even played pick-up ball knows the feeling when you...

    Wow...well, spotlight's now officially REALLY on you Kaep, if it wasn't before. Now, the 49ers better win a Super Bowl in the next six years (hopefully more), otherwise this deal is a huge flop.

    2013-2014 NBA Season Thread - Congrats to the Spurs, DBD is still a buster

    Kobe's had Phil Jackson (one of the greatest coaches in history) as his coach for all his titles, and played with an in-his-prime Shaq to win his first three titles. Duncan's definitely been fortunate as well having Pop as his coach and being able to play with David Robinson to start his...

    2013-2014 NBA Season Thread - Congrats to the Spurs, DBD is still a buster

    As good of a record Scott Brooks has compiled (in large part due to being able to coach 2 superstars), I don't think OKC is ever winning a title with him as head coach.

    I think Heat in 7 again this year. Gonna be a hell of a series The OKC Sonics curse continues. I said a couple years back I didn't feel KD/Westbrook would win a title together, and I still feel that way. On paper it seems like it would work out, but they're too over-reliant on Westbrook and...

    I think the future of the MBA is going to be online, but the power of a top school full-time still won't diminish in my opinion (obviously I'm coming with a slightly biased view as I'm intending to go FT). But it's the experiences, connections, etc. that make the full-time experience better. I'd...

    Anyone here go to a prestigious university?

    Went to UCSD for undergrad. Not prestigious like a Berkeley or UCLA, but I'm satisfied overall with my experiences there, looking back at it 4 years later. Made great friends, had a solid foundation. Hoping to get a prestigious name under my belt for grad school, however, and have the chance to...
