A bird in hand is better than two in the bush.


That's actually my favorite saying but I hate it because when do you ever get to say it?

speaking of ESPN, when they bring up some fucking stupid useless stat, and pass it off like its going to decide the game. like, new england is 13-1 when the wind is east-west blowing over 10 mph.

yeah, I know what you mean.

Even worse, I remember a while ago (maybe a month or 2ish), they were having one of those dialogues or something talking about Tiger Woods and his complete domination at the beginning of the year. He had another tournament and then one of the majors after that. One of the questions one of the person asked is if he should *purposely* not win the first tournament so he wouldn't be due to not win the major. obviously I don't remember all the specifics, but I'm quite sure it went something like that.

The problem with all the ESPN shows (sportscenter most notably) is that they are all marketed towards kids and the very, very casual sports fan. they get way too worked up in the celebrity sports drama and sob/feel good stories, and their highlights and analysis leave a *lot* to be desired.

This reminds me:
"what are you doing?" - teacher
"nothing" - me
"exactly" - teacher

another one for the retarded sportscasters... Bill Walton something along the lines of "Yeah, When you outscore your opponent in each quarter you usually win the game."

NASA computers have a 200% redundancy. Meaning that for every calculation 3 computers process them separately, then "vote" on the best answer. Don't knock redundancy.

I'm a geek. I understand redundancy. These examples were not even close to the same thing though.

Something else I hate is e-anything or i-anything.
