Really interesting article
Imagine telling a lawyer she’s been traded for two promising law students. Or a salesman that he’s moving from a software company in Seattle to a tire company in Cleveland. In sports, it happens all the time. To find out how it’s done, we asked Ed Wade, general manager of the Houston Astros, and Frank Wren, his counterpart with the Atlanta Braves—as well as some of their scouts and players—to reconstruct a swap they made just before baseball’s July 31 trading deadline. The process begins with Wade realizing that his slumping Astros need to unload players such as star outfielder Hunter Pence and speedy center fielder Michael Bourn to build for the future.

They’ve had this campaign for three seasons now. I don’t know about other teams, but the Boston Bruins have also kept the same campaign for three seasons. Unsurprisingly, both the Sharks’ and Bruins’ campaigns are considered to be the funniest, most original ad campaigns in the NHL, so it makes sense why they keep them.

I think I was the only one who thought the lilies were planted there by the cartel…

The only postseason series I could get into was the Dbacks vs Brewers and the Rays vs Rangers

Because I wanted the Dbacks to lose and the Rays to win. 1-1. I don’t really have any strong feelings towards the Rangers or (nor?) the Cardinals. And it’s hard to hate the Cards like some of the people here because the 87 Giants vs Cards NLCS took place before I was born.

LSAT test prep recommendations?

I’m looking at Blueprint and it’s definitely looking like the best option right now in terms of price and quality. I’ve got a strong bias against Kaplan for various reasons, but that’s still an option. Any suggestions?

The first six innings are overrated.

by apistat on Oct 23, 2011 11:11 PM PDT reply actions  

I would suggest you take a practice test under LSAT test conditions/timing and see how you do first

If you score 165+ taking a prep course would be a waste of your time/money, in my opinion, because any improvement you see you could probably achieve on your own after taking many more practice tests.

Just my 2 cents. I know a ton of people who did the Kaplan LSAT prep and were happy with it.
