If we're considering butterfly effect, I agree stocks are the best way to go, but they take more time and startup money. I think you'd still need to come up with some way to get initial seed money quickly to get your past-self to buy into your letter (and keep following your advice). You probably need to give some…

Easy work around...just say "Apple to 600" or whatever it's at when you write the letter. Speaking of which, is the letter dated? That'd obviously be good context for many of these items...e.g. If you just said "Buy Apple" and knew the letter was dated today, you'd sell it today.

Agreed. Sadly, it won't ever happen. Look how long it took for changes with the BCS happen...I think it would take some sort of sustained multi-year BCS idiocy to get enough people to care to participate.

/Eugene Robinson takes notes/ "So, you're supposed to get arrested AFTER the big game, not BEFORE? Weird"

I believe it's spelled "'sploding"

Sorry, I meant part of the player's union and have their own separate union. Not sure why I said "unionized" there.

Without having read the CBA, arbitrators typically come from an independent entity like JAMS or AAA and have specialized labor experience. They are then either mutually agreed upon by both parties...or they can be random (and each party can strike one)...or sometimes they are permanent fixtures (like baseball's drug…

Re: the coaches. Regardless of whether the coaches challenged their suspensions, this decision would not impact them since they are not unionized or governed by the CBA's dispute resolution/arbitration provisions.

Agreed. Read the NFL.com article, and you'll see this ruling just requires Ginger Boy to reword his suspension. So, let's dial back the "massive victory" stuff.

I still say tortellini (and then ravioli). High stab-ability, filled with deliciousness, and then potential to be covered by more deliciousness. Only downside is when you go to fancy pants restaurant and they give you like 4 ravioli or tortellini because they're "handmade" and charge you $50 (Note to fancy pants…

I stopped after reading "get your hot Italian sausage" and after I spotted the words "donkey" and "nazi". I'm not sure what kind of porno you're writing here, but I don't want to spoil it for myself by reading anymore.

Yup...just as there are Vick Eagles jerseys at Falcons games (in fact, I saw a split Eagles-Falcons Vick jersey at last year's game...what the hell?)...you know, because Vick was sooo good to Atlanta and certainly deserves Atlanta fans' continued support. So, yeah, given that Peyton didn't kill dogs, have STDs, and…

It's not just possible, it's almost certain. Let's see...highly touted prospect shipped to Atlanta and basically becomes an even more embarrassing out-of-shape joke. He is cut for the first time in his career (by the Braves)...and has to sign a measly $1.25 million/1 year contract with the worst team in the league…

+1 "after losing 20 lbs during the offseason"...hmmm...I wonder if there is substance that could help me lose weight but maintain (or even increase) muscle/recovery at the same time?

+1 When I saw the casual dismissal of a 2.1% uptick in LD, I knew this was going to be bad.

And...Al Horford is Dominican. He played against the US Team in Olympic qualifying.

Can you explain "technical birth"? Did his head start popping out in NYC...but then his mom held it in until they could get to France? Honestly, that would explain a lot about Noah.

I see someone failed Look In The Lower Left-Hand Corner 101 today.

THAT'S RACEEST!!

I read it exactly the same way. I'm now having trouble getting the mental image of a flag fapping out of my head (How would that work?! Would the flag be fapping one of its stripes?!).
