Is there such a thing as reverse advertising? Because I swear, I'm beginning to hate the Polaris company for the way their add constantly takes over my browser page, to the point that I'm beginning to hate snowmobiles in general and Polaris in particular, and I'm starting to hope the company never makes any money if only so they can't afford the G*D* advertising.

Ray Rice has been released from his contract this afternoon. All it took was graphic video evidence of him instigating an altercation with his girlfriend before knocking her out cold.

I'm not sure why it took until this. The video released today doesn't really show us anything we don't already know.

I agree. This should have happened back in February when the assault took place. Let's realize something though, Ray Rice did not get released/suspended because he beat a woman, he got released/suspended because TMZ got their hands on a copy of the video and made the evidence that Goodell, the Ravens, and the police had access to months ago available to the public.

Embarrassing moment for the NFL and the Ravens organization.

Some of the users in the Geek Emporium were raving about it, I've looked into it but haven't bought one as of yet.

my fat ass is sitting on a Markus right now. We shall see.

so Notch (the creator of Minecraft) is leaving Mojang when it gets bought by Microsoft. He cited a YouTube video in his statement that I feel also oddly parallels what's going on with fancy stats. Teams are likely having an effect on their employed internet celebrities however.

(language)

You could easily switch 'Phil Fish' with a further along 'Tyler Dellow', although without the structure of an NHL team backing him and so far, probably coaching the amount of expression he makes.

Let me know how you like the Markus, I'm the market for a new desk chair.

As for Notch leaving Mojang I'll believe it when I see it. He has no reason to sell aside from simply making even more money than he is. Phil Fish is a poor comparison, Fish is an ******* who thinks his ideas should be treated as treasures while Notch is more into the business side of things.

Notch IS leaving Mojang, and I wasn't comparing Notch to Phil Fish. I was comparing Phil Fish to advanced stats bloggers, particularly Tyler Dellow, who have found themselves employed by NHL teams over the recent months.

Notch's blog is probably down with traffic, but here's the text: http://pastebin.com/n1qTeikM

Wow, I never expected that. But I can understand his point of view, he built something and it got big enough to where he wanted to step back but then fans got angry at him for that so he saw that one of the best ways of being able to leave would be to sell the company.

For how much I know about Fez and the man himself(nothing), Phil Fish's name has caught my attention a disproportionate amount of time.
