    Bad news for breakfast cereal

    So you’re telling me free market forces have nothing to do with them closing the plant? Somehow I doubt that.

    We buy in bulk which helps.

    Bad news for breakfast cereal

    It does not help that there has been a significant decline in demand for cereal for the past 2 years, and increased competition from cheaper store brands.

    Apparently shifting production to existing facilities in PA, MI, and…Canada?!

    Best non Power 5 teams of all time

    It’s amazing what a great run Boise State put together there for awhile. 2010 and 2011 they were like a point or two away from crashing the whole party.

    OT: Best Steak in Omaha

    I have no personal experience, but my boss swears by the Drover. And he is like a real-life Ron Swanson.

    Anyone watching the USA and LaCry James!

    I realize some people get emotional about things. You have a personal connection, I get it. I’m on record as saying I much prefer the NBA of yesteryear as well, for many reasons. That’s why it’s hard to say, yet still true, that players today are better. Not the ones at the top, but the further...

    Anyone watching the USA and LaCry James!

    Shot selection not in terms of good vs bad, but in terms of 3 pt shots. Posting near-equal FG % from different eras is not indicative of equal performance. It’s like comparing Shaq’s FG % to Steph Curry’s and concluding that Shaq is a better shooter. When the proportion of 3pt shots is so much...

    Did you account for the variance in shot selection (3 pt vs 2 pt shots) between these different eras?

    OT: NBA Playoffs

    It means that a player excels on both ends of the floor, something that very few players do. A player that sucks on offense is not a two-way player either. The vast majority of players don't excel on both ends; its not a participation trophy.

    OT: NBA Playoffs

    First, yes, I think Reggie Miller would thrive today. And to address another poster's comment, yes, I think Larry Bird would have been great in any era. The whole extent of my thoughts on this topic have included that the best players in any era would be very good in any other era as well. It...

    OT: NBA Playoffs

    I don't buy the whole "the 90's were so physical" argument. If you watch highlight reels of guys throwing elbows and committing flagrant fouls, it's going to seem like it. But if you watch actual games, it's just a lot of standing around. Guys on the perimeter get tons of space. Even within...

    OT: NBA Playoffs

    No, I don't think Jeff Hornacek would train the same today. If he was born in 2001 instead of 1963, he would have played more basketball as a youth, and had the benefit of decades of advancements in sports science, nutrition, coaching, and analytics. And he would have been playing against...
