who all on here is the master of their domain? I'm not!

wasn't DE Darrell Daniels a JUCO? He was a very good player.

3rd down 4 yards to go and we throw a 2 yard pass and end up shy of the first down.

you learn well. Always go for the cheap, easy, sure thing. Absolutely nothing wrong with going hogging.

very good grasshopper, always good to get the specifics. In this scenario they are the same quality in layingish, however, with the ugly one the lights are on and two of your friends are hiding in the closet taking pics with camera phone. One even sneaks out and smacks you on the left buttocks while the other sings the UNT fight song.

Good scenario but let me add a twist. What if you are 100% certain the ugly girl will put out but only 25% the better looking option will? Do you load up on the alcohol and go for the sure thing or roll the dice on the prettier girl?

could you imagine the mayhem if Auburn were to hire a coach with a 3-21 record? He isn't going to get any college hc gig until he vastly improves his record.

according to earlier posts we are only bringing in $72K per game (which I don't believe is correct), not sure what expenses are but have to be pretty high, so that leaves us no profit each game.

That's just as bad then because we had 5 home games, that's $72K per game, or about 4838 tickets sold at $15 apiece. That isn't counting any parking revenue. I'm not trying to argue or be a smartass just stating that I don't think $362K could possibly be ticket revenue for 5 home games. I could be wrong, my wife tells me I am all the time.

Then we are giving away a lot of free tickets and parking if we only had $72K in revenue. At an average of say $15 per ticket, thats only 4800 tickets sold all year long. On a true P&L statement, revenue, expenses, and profit are all listed.

I would guess that is profit, not revenue.

Rose, Meager, Philips, Mahan,

That was 7-8 weeks ago. Many things change over the course of an entire football season. Ole Miss beat Florida but that doesn't mean Ole Miss should be ranked higher. Yes, UT did beat OU week 5 but if they were to play today, I have no doubt OU would win. I hate both schools so I don't care who goes.

beecase whe r stuped

but here again we put the blame on schwab. Its not very hard to research exactly what mutual funds you have available in your 401K. Lets take Fidelity as an example. I can research the 50 mutual funds available to me. I can see exactly what companies make up that mutual fund. I can research those companies and see if I think it is a wise investment or not. No matter what the fund managers say, I can be informed on my own. People can't just sit back and let other people tell them what to do with their money. You have to take a little initiative and do the research and come up with a plan on your own. You are right, you can't short you holding in your 401K. However, you aren't limited to just holding a 401K, you can buy stocks outside that, or you can short stocks outside that. Many different investment strategies out there to make money, or lose money.

why is their 401K down 40% over two years? I'm not an investing genius but when the market started tanking, I moved funds from some higher risk, higher return vehicles to more bond dominated, safer investments. I also shorted some long holdings to hedge any losses. Like lifer said before, you can make a ton of money in a down market or you can play it safe and minimize your losses. Buy low, sell high. You can also short stocks when they are lossing value.

First off, congratulations on being a well informed, educated buyer. You knew what you could afford and didn't let the builder (don't know why they would be telling you what you could afford, that is usually where the HLC comes in and works his magic) but you didn't agree to buy more than you could afford. No harm no foul on anyones part. Lets be honest, most of the people getting into ARM's did not do it as an investment, hoping to sell the house after a few year of appreciation. They did it because they weren't satisfied with what they could afford so they got stars in their eyes and bought more than what they should have. No matter what a loan originator tells someone, only the individual truly knows what they can and can't afford. On a side note, I've been looking into buying a HDTV for awhile and everytime I go into Best Buy and Circuit City, I tell the associate what I want and what I am willing to pay. How come they are ALWAYS trying to upgrade me to a larger, clearer, higher resolution TV? If I let them talk me into spending more than what I can afford, who's fault is it, mine or the associates?

so the borrower has absolutely no fault in this? Come on, haven't we as a nation placed the blame on other people long enough? I have worked at a mortgage company for 7 years, maybe we should hire you to teach us about MBS's and selling them in the secondary market.

Exactly, in the end, the borrower was the one that made the decision and signed the mortgage contract. Living in the metroplex, everyone should realize that a huge number of people knowingly buy things they can't afford, but hey, it sure makes them look good to the neighbors (the same neighbors that bought more house than they could afford also). Time to stop blaming the banks and mortgage companies for the ARM fiasco and start placing the blame where it belongs, on the borrower.

the negativity does get old but doesn't the baseless positive posts get irritating as well? It seems that some people just don't want to admit the Dodge experiment was a failure and it needs to be fixed asap. Old timers have stated on here the problems we faced in the 50's, 60's,70's, 80's, 90's, and now. Seems like if more people got fed up and started bitching and complaining more and more to the right people, we could finally get these problems fixed so we won't be having them 10 years from now. Maybe its just me but I can't just sit here and watch this train wreck and put my head in the sand so I don't notice it. As long as I spend money on this program, I'm going to bitch and moan all I want. Maybe if we had more people willing to complain in the 50's, things would be better today.

TD's buyout can be easily remedied. Just re-assign him to equipment manager ( I believe NT can do this based on his contract) and let him get pissed and quit. This would eliminate us having to buyout his remaining 3 years and start the search for a real college coach.

Hey now, I have an aunt in politics and she's not ego-driven.

Busy interviewing? I hope

you think K-State would let things get that bad before lowering the axe?
