Our computer switch-over is in process. The IT vendor has had a guy here almost full-time over the last several work days to load-up the new machines with the designated software. The idea is to make all of the desk-tops almost identical so that there's not the constant question of which computer has which software. It's always surprising how many different programs we each end up using on a regular basis. I think that the server-switch is tonight.
I had been on the side of "Who Cares?" when it came to the NBA strike/lock-out. That's unfair to the little people who staff the arenas or work in the ancillary businesses that depend on the league operating. So for the sake of all those employees in the related activities, a shortened season is better than no season. But just to confirm the obvious, I won't be on line at Ticketmaster for Bulls' tickets.
Not that I was ever a Herman Cain fan, but the guy has hit a bit of a rough patch on the Political Trail recently. We live in a different time. Politicians, athletes and entertainers (talk about redundancy!) are all free game and the paparazzi are always there. Once there's blood in the water, it's a race to Hangman's Tree.
And I've never been a Syracuse fan. But I wonder if Boeheim can survive? If you're fully in charge, and there's a felony (or more) perpetrated under your watch, how do you avoid the ax? While there appears to be no evidence of convenient ignorance on this one, I think Boeheim will fall by organizational protocol.
Two games for Ndamukong Suh. But he's appealing to the league for leniency. Now that's rich! I'm sure that the player's union is pushing the appeal. But really. If this guy has the idea that he's being misunderstood, take the two weeks off and retool your image machine. Right now, it ain't workin'.
Now headed out to run with 2 and The W. Maybe more here later.
