The H Word

PrintDespite Dan's courageous effort to avoid using the H word this morning, Tony La Russa has emerged from his basement twittering confines (he's like us now guys!) to drop some knowledge on recently back from vacation Joe Strauss. In an unusual turn of events, Joe Strauss decided not to singlehandedly decrease VEB users production tomorrow and post the story prior to midnight.
Unfortunately, "the story" really just sets a timetable for Cardinal withdrawal from negotiations. It's a brief exit strategy so refresh buttons across St. Louis will soon find reprieve:
Amid growing signs that the Cardinals and free-agent left fielder Matt Holliday were on the brink of a franchise-record contract to keep the former batting champion in St. Louis, manager Tony La Russa acknowledged Monday that any deal should be finalized sometime this week.
[...]
Negotiations have touched on a variety of frameworks, ranging from five years to eight. Boras has pursued a minimum $18 million annual average value within a longer deal. Any deal is also expected to include a full no-trade clause.
Again, there's nothing particularly earthshattering here given the ambiguity of the contract details but it certainly seems like Scott Boras has finally blinked in the negotiating process. Resolution to come forthwith.
But wait! Continue reading and you'll find some GM-speak a little further down.
La Russa has remained unswervingly optimistic about Holliday's return, even when Mozeliak projected that possibility as "less than 50-50" and Boras last month said the organization was understating its financial resources.
So maybe no resolution forthwith? Perhaps there are more late nights ahead?
I hope that cleared things up for everyone.

I don't think the club is going to do that
That’s just what Boras wants. It simply won’t happen when there’s no serious bidders vying against the Cardinals for his services though.

i hope you are right
is he really $10m better than luddy and nearly that compared to cameron? don’t think so, but seems all our eggs are in that basket. nothing new in this, bourous continues to stall.
I may be in a rut, but at least I know where I'm going
Don't be silly
There’s a mystery team, an independent league team, two Japanese teams, and a little league team from Florida interested in Matt Holliday. Scott told me.

It's 17-10 because of crappy offensive execution
With the QBs missing on easy passes. I hate the gimmicky blue field, the gimmicky trick play stuff, the soon-to-be bitching about no Nat’l title shot despite the fact that Bama or Florida or Texas would blow them off the field, apparent near 100% rate of ugly girls and their colors.

It was great
my buddy came walking into the bar I was at and I told him that TCU and Boise got a BCS game and asked him who they were playing and where… He immediately said each other and the Fiesta… I’m pretty sure if I’m running the Fiesta Bowl I’m pretty tired of getting the crappy teams no one really wants dumped on them… I think the Rose Bowl needs to get in their ear and get them to back out of the BCS so we can blow this thing up and go back to the old Bowl Alliance… who’s with me?
"When I knocked a guy down, there was no second part to the story." - Bob Gibson
I was just gonna say: is this a case of two very good defenses?
or is it that these two teams just aren’t as good as advertised and all the bemoaning the lack of a NC shot for these teams was misguided. Hate to say it,. but I’m leaning towards the latter. Bama would destroy either of these teams.
I don't know.
From what I saw earlier TCU has a pretty good defense. However, it was raining and that was during our period of not-as-awesome-as-we-really-are and we could have easily won that game with just a few more things going right for us.

Not afraid to nitpick
I hate this
Oklahoma and Texas, though perenially more talented than us, always play their most flawless game of the year against us, then play like shit against lesser and comparable teams. Drives me insane.
it was 43-42, it was a heck of a game
oklahoma didn’t play like shit, they got beat by a better team

But Oklahoma did play like shit, they spotted Boise State 14 points by coming out without caring about the game………..and still were a 4th and 18 from victory.

but i really forget how that game started, i just remember peterson having an great game & them going back & forth at the end & in the OT

It's January
Why don’t we call Boras’ bluff and offer a take it our leave it front-loaded 5 year deal averaging $18MM? Like $22MM, $20MM, $18MM, $16MM, $14MM. Offer no-trade protection and a 6th year at $10MM or a $1MM buyout (similar to the second year of Beltre’s new contract).
I am still concerned about handcuffing our team and I have to think Holliday takes this deal and if he doesn’t we will be OK with the superfluous Plan B.

i agree i not understanding
i know if aav gets too low others may enter the fray, but hfhs, what pennies are they arguing about? bourous is just trying to drag this out so more derosa, berltre options go off the board and he gains leverage. mo has to pull the plug, and soon (like tomorrow).
I may be in a rut, but at least I know where I'm going
frontloading not needed
…but I’m not sure a deal over 6 years is, ESPECIALLY at 18 per. I guess we’ll have to see what the final offer is, but I don’t see McPhail or anyone else being bold enough to drive prices that high. That said, if we come anywhere near 17/7 and then are unable to extend King Albert, I will, for the first time in my life, question my allegiance to the laundry. But given pujols’ drive for another WS, management may be in a damned if they don’t situation. I’d really like to know what this smart plan B is.

you also have to take out the catholic school girl thing because christians & catholics are really two different religions, most just don’t think they are & lump them in with the same group

did i cross a line? sorry, not what i was trying to do
i was just trying to explain the difference & didn’t think it was over the line. i always thought the religion ban, which i fully support, was in place so we wouldn’t go off the rails debating different philosophy’s back & forth & ripping on others for what they do or do not believe. since az is here & dan was around am i close guys? i didn’t think explaining that a popular belief about all women that go to church being sluts being incorrect fell under that. if it did, again my bad.

TCU is in Dallas though, so it’s not really the south. it’s Texas, which is totally different somehow. i’m not sure how, but just ask someone from Texas & they’ll fill in the blanks. and Texas is well known for the attractiveness of their women, and the TCU cheerleaders/dancers/whatever they are lived up to the hype

What system are you using?
I have about 220gb of music on my external drive (I will never listen to it all in my natural lifetime). I have the ED connected via my computer into my high end stereo system, and I prefer going on a roll, song to song. The progression depends on how much I have had to drink, but always a lot of Hendrix, Zappa, amd Moby, for some odd reason (age showing). Sly and the Family Stone and P-Funk always in the mix.

it won't ruin the point of listening to a good system
but it will “reveal the limitations of the source material” more, as they say….
/not at all an audiophile
weird, I thought I already replied to this heh
but yeah, if you have a collection of mp3s less than the highest compression rate, you will hear lots of digital distortion in the highs, unnatural mids, and muddy or slightly distorted bass most likely (depends on the original recording of course).
if you have 320 kbps mp3s, it is much less noticeable on my system (kenwood receiver with JBL speakers, or sennheiser headphones) but you can still tell. FLAC files sound much better, but I’ve seen some sites such as Warp Records actually give you the option to buy .wav files instead of mp3s, which makes sense because flac files don’t play on some music players

by Cards Fan in Chitown on Jan 5, 2010 1:52 AM EST up reply actions
my non-research backed position is that
“CD quality” (44/16 PCM) and some threshhold bitrate for mp3 (256-320, somewhere in there) in a double-blind test would be awfully hard to tell apart, even with a trained listener and a strong sound system. I mean, I know <128k mp3s always destroy cymbals and other sibilances, they just never sound right. I frigging hate that bad-mp3 sound, it’s like listening to a cassette that’s been sitting in the sunlight in the car for six months.
But OTOH I was blown away listening to In Rainbows the first time @ 128k: but that was with a high quality conversion, extremely high quality source material, and mixing/arranging was chosen specifically to work with mp3 (I saw an interview w/ J Greenwood in New Yorker where he specifically said they did simpler arrangements for this reason—sparse mixes translate better to mp3 than dense ones). Etc.
Personally I think the future (w/ the redonkulous computer gear coming out these days) is in beyond-Red Book quality PCM .wavs (like 96/24 and up).
/soapbox
yeah
it depends a lot on what the original music sounds like as to how it sounds in compressed form. if it is complex, acoustic material (mainly jazz if that is the case) then it is most noticeable. I can usually tell 256k, especially if on headphones, less so on speakers. I must have really good hearing, because I have been to 100s of loud shows and I count myself fortunate to still have good hearing!

the higher the frequency
the more obvious the distortion will be. Also, material that’s mastered hot also suffers relative to more dynamic music.
I have that annoying thing where I can tell that a tube tv/monitor is on a quiet room, but I will cop to having a notch or two in my upper mids some place from playing drums with no plugs. (When I play with earplugs in I play 5 times as hard as I should….) I do try to make sure I listen to absolutely nothing at least a certain amount of each day.
yeah
as a musician I don’t know how people play with earplugs, I lose all nuance in my playing… and that’s an interesting point about the drumming, I’ve noticed drummers who use earplugs usually play much louder

it doesn't fucking sound right!
People that don’t play drums don’t get that drums push back when you hit them….so you get this mechanical feedback to how you’re playing in addition to the sonic feedback….then the earplugs go in and the touch sense and the hearing sense are all out of proportion to each other. It drives me crazy. The second I find myself getting into what I’m doing, I get way too loud.
also

the cymbals are usually what gets me
but yeah, snare is dangerous because it’s white noise… one of my buddies in a noise rock band only uses one earplug, because he has similar issues that I have with not being able to hear exactly what I’m playing… but he’s going to run into some interesting lopsided hearing problems some day heh

Only once, when I had everything set up on a card table that had a plastic

Our phonograph is old, close to 30 years, and it does have a ground wire, which connects to the MixMeister. I’m using the Audacity program that came with Ion, rather than the iTunes setup. Had to download the LAME mp3 encoder, still haven’t tried converting the Audacity files yet, though.

Re-reading your post
I’m not going through a receiver, the Ion handles everything without a receiver. I use the Phono switch on the Ion, b/c no pre-amp in the turntable. If your turntable has a pre-amp (I guess the Ion usb turntables have them), you use the Line switch.

Ok, that was a little weird. She looked like she was supposed to be a
celebrity who somehow got into the BSU band, and was handed a drumstick and told to hit the thingy in front of her. Are you sure she’s not famous, or something? She has that Conan O’Brien, 1864 baseball sort of look on her face..“some say a waste of time, others say, an incredible waste of time”.

This reminds me of a Jeff Dunham segment.
In football, the object is for the quarterback, otherwise known as the field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his recievers with deadly accuracy in spite of the blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.
In baseball the object is to go home! And to be safe! "I hope I'll be safe at home!"
-George Carlin (RIP)
Yeah, he kind of sounds like a jerk
but he is funny, and sure as hell good at what he does.

He's not funny at all.
Everyone is acting like he’s a breath of fresh air, when in reality, his jokes are stale.
Now with extra feisty!
I would totally disagree
But then again, I am not the hardest guy to make laugh in the world.
i don’t think he is necessarily a breath of fresh air, but have you seen one good ventriloquist in your life? I sure as hell haven’t, and just because his jokes are unoriginal doesn’t mean they aren’t funny.

Hey hey hey!
I saw his act for the first time last year. I mean, the first time I saw it, I am gonna admit I thought it was hilarious. They aren’t watch them over and over again hilarious, but don’t discredit them.
Carlin however, is on a different level.
My top 5
George Carlin
Brian Regan
Jim Gaffigan
Lewis Black
Dave Chapelle
Dunham would be about 13 or so.

Why are the Cardinals in such a hurry to sign Holliday (speculation)
we don’t need him that badly, lets use that as leverage to lower the price. If some other team wants him at what he’s asking for right now then they can have him.
We need him very badly.
Our offense wasn’t all that last season. And there’s no way our pitching will be as good this season. So we’ve got to make up the difference somewhere. Holliday’s bat does that for us.
Now with extra feisty!
