They aren’t calculated risks because they will not dethrone the current leaders. MS is not bringing nothing new to those industries. They have a better chance of selling an XBone in Japan than they do competing with Apple and Google. Unfortunately for you, business sense is on a different level than common sense. MS…

They throw money away for a myriad of dumb reasons across their enterprise, so what is your point? The Nokia purchase, Windows Phone OS, Xbox pay for exclusives, Windows 8, Bing, etc. are all draining the surplus created by their operating system and Office Suite. Those cash cows are not as profitable as they once…

Who knows but for a company with billions of dollars under their mattress and who loves to throw money at devs for exclusives, they made no attempt to at least be a nuisance on their competitor’s turf. Not that I care. I fux with Sony.

Unfortunately in the U.S., the home team is only where the executives live. The product, if human, could never run for president.

I think he’s saying that Microsoft can’t expect to use the same marketing approach in Japan and expect to be successful. Basing a counter argument purely on nationalism isn't the answer either, Microsoft has the money to present a better product to the Japanese people. They just don't want to. Even Coke tweaks it’s…

Uh, DJ started the day with a share of the lead, expanded it to two and then proceeded to bogey 3 of 4. Then he missed two good birdie chances before tying the match, only to give it away when all he needed was a two putt from 12 feet.

Fox’s coverage of the U.S. Open was like trying to watch an HD movie with a dial-up connection. And to think we have 11 more years of this bullshit.

Golf has shot up to the top of the list. He gave DJ the kiss of death shortly after the turn when he said DJ had control of the tourney and he only had a two stroke lead. Spoken like a true ignoramus of the USGA.

Ain’t that ‘bouta bitch

White people get unhinged at the most benign shit. Get a credit card application in the mail? Call in and cuss a muthafucka out. Can't get tickets to Billy Joel at MSG the night before? Call in and cuss a muthafucka out. Get asked to move from 3rd base to the outfield? Call and cuss a muthafucka out.

You got it twisted homie. The MVP is not the most valuable player to his team. It’s the most valuable player in the series. He wore down the team’s best player, made him shoot an abysmal percentage and he was on the court making positive contributions when GS needed them most. That sounds like an MVP to me.

So maybe he should play team basketball instead of me basketball. He went Me Against the World when he has Tootsie Roll stamina.

I prefer AI, I’ve called him that since his college days in Arizona, less I digress.

Wrong. He is not a clutch shooter and uses the Magic Johnson facade to justify a pass when his team is down late. Though he will shoot in a tied game as there is zero risk and all reward. I’d prefer JR Swish on a catch and shoot.

No he wasn't because Irving got hurt, who had him with no help.

Question. Does he get to the finals if Love and Irving were out at the start of the playoffs?

Yeah and who missed the shot?

MJ would be hotter than MJ during Thriller. He went for your heart. He DUNKED on any and everybody. He didn't bitch about being tired. He made his team get better. He wasn't afraid of taking the big shot. That's why he's the best, and it took me a few years to accept it because I formerly though Magic was the best.

Oh yeah, the 8th place East team back then would waltz to the Finals now.

Taking 196 shots to score 215 points (169 minus FTs) is not an all time performance. Constantly wearing down at the most crucial stages of the game is not worthy of historical recognition. Losing in 6 games including three straight is not going to get anyone the MVP.
