Actually, its because people have voted with their wallets and their votes decided that crappy service for the lowest price is more important than anything else...

A great article that points out a lot of good points, except for this line:

Question: Can NBC get their shit together and capitalize on ESPN basically giving up on hockey and soccer (World Cup notwithstanding)? I like the NBC PL coverage and maybe there’s a chance here to make a bigger deal of it. I think NBC/NBCSN would do better with MLS, as well.

And yet Darren Rovell, the cockroach’s cockroach, will survive these cuts and outlive us all.

Oh, I LOVE how you judged without a simple Google search ...

When I read pseudo-tech criticisms like this, it makes me worried.

It’s not that you were wrong, but that you were spectacularly dick-ish in your wrongness.

you accepted a full time job without having ANY idea what your paycheck was going to be?

Yeah fuck quality! Fuck better design and better fabrics and better stitching! Fuck having a hoodie that will last for years and years! Fuck it all! So unreasonable!!! I don’t know shit about fabrics or clothing so I have the authority to say this is fuckig stupid and anyone who buys these hoodies is a fucking…

Any person who cares to have quality, well-made clothes? You don’t have to be a hipster to spend money on something that is going to last years longer than your average $40 hoodie.

I lost it at “You think Bill Cowher or Mike Ditka or Green Bay just waltzed into cozy jobs?” This is the actual thought process for the part-owners (fans) of their team.

Until the airlines start giving me the leg room I need, and at my height that should be a given, I will continue to use the overhead for my laptop bag...especially on long flights. Now here’s your tip: CHECK THAT FUCKING SUITCASE IN THE CARGO HOLD WHERE IT FUCKING BELONGS.

Actually If you’re subscribed to more data, you’ll be getting a better deal. I’m on the 15gb/month plan right now and it costs $100/month. I can either upgrade to 16gb/month for $10 less or jump to 25gb/month for $10 more.

Can someone explain why this comment has so many stars?

Inbox Zero is a time suck disguising itself as a productivity tool.

I do that too. Everything on one credit card that I pay off every month. Instead of cash back, I’ve amassed 150,000 frequent flyer miles on my credit card. I’m going to be doing a free round-trip to Hawaii in first class next year, paid for entirely by those points.

Or that one guy who ALWAYS has a laundry list of questions that are completely pointless or off topic and just drag the meeting on longer when everyone wants to gtfo of there....

Or anybody else for that matter. Ask questions but don’t monopolize the instructors time. Hint: if you are asking questions 5/1 of anyone else in the room. Write them down and ask after the class/presentation. (If that’s an option.)
