Season feels like the start of 2004-2005 with some obvious differences

we need david west to hipcheck curry into the scorers table

Leading to Draymond and AI's suspension, I like this plan.

[Lostwingman]

Excusing Curry outshining DPOY in advance; seems a bit weak to me coming from him.

Man, you're soo eternally butthurt you really can't see what he's saying?

Leading to Draymond and AI's suspension, I like this plan.

yeah, that'd be a good tradeout, I could sure see Draymond doing that and that would fluster Curry getting knocked on his ass like that

[Arcadian]

you can't really win if you're smart and male

You need to find the "sapiosexual" girls...they do exist.

[jhfenton]

It's college, like that happens... especially to me, people don't really like smart guys that aren't dorks because they see them as y pompous assholes... you can't really win if you're smart and male, you're either an introverted dork or an arrogant ass machiavellian that people tend to plot against. Meh. At least I did get some money this week. Nice win tonight, tbh.

You know where the girls aren't intimidated by smart guys? Ivy League schools.

You missed your chance.

If Curry goes off on Kawhi then you just tip your hat tbh. Ain't no one beating the dubs if Kawhi can't contain him.

Princeton ? nah... I'd rather go to UNT

[ParadoxEN]

168 IQ,

chose UNT solely for the money and the opportunity to get away from everyone from my huge HS; those were my two sole criteria really at the time. My mom was unemployed my senior year after having taught the past 7 years. Was rejected by Stanford after being put in that lottery system... got into Vanderbilt and Princeton, would have had to pay too much to go to either place even with good scholarships and ins utional grants. If I had it back, I would have definitely gone to A&M for social/atmospheric reasons and triple roomed with my 2 good friends from HS -- though I would have profited far less. My Texas 5-A+ valedictorian free tuition waiver was only good for Texas public state schools. I also didn't want to go to UT Austin because I frankly despise UT and also calculated that I would have actually gone in the hole by $2k over a three-year period (that would have had to have been paid by loans since my mom is dead broke and I have no father). Texas Tech is just too remote and out of the way. At least UNT is up I-35. UNT seemed like a good place from the start because it was far away from my HS in SA and they offered by far the best financial aid package. Going to school for free is one thing, but profiting by as much as I have has been such an accomplishment personally for me that I can't really complain too much.

In 2001, Princeton became the first university to offer every aid recipient a financial aid package that replaces loans with grant aid that students do not pay back.

An average grant of over $46,000 for the Class of 2019: In 2014-15 the average aid grant covered 100% of tuition for freshmen receiving financial aid.

83% of recent seniors graduated debt free: Princeton's no loan policy has made it possible for most students to graduate with no debt. For seniors who borrowed, the average total indebtedness at graduation was $6,600.

Lol brah, if you were really that poor, you cant do much better than Princeton, tbh

UNT has a business analytics degree which is offered at very few universities and is in very high corporate demand (business intelligence, etc) so don't kid yourself. Sure it's considered average overall, but that's mostly due to the low tier graduate school, the lack of a good science college (it's the "college of arts and sciences" and the math and science classes just aren't that good here), middling engineering college, and perennially bad athletics bring it down. The college of business is pretty awesome and the building (which I'm posting from) is brand new (finished in 2011), state of the art, and better than the other business buildings in the big Texas schools because alumni that graduate from our business program are very successful.

"business analytics" lol

if its offered at very few universities, very few people are going to know about it.

You think some company is gonna turn down Ivy grads because their school didnt offer "business analytics"?

Hopefully in June it will feel like the end of 2004-2005

Do they even have girls there? Or are those primarily male dominated with 95% of the females ugly, dorky, and androgynous.?

Tuition... perhaps. But you've got to take into account a lot of other things besides tuition going to a place like that... rent is going to be up the ass expensive, food more expensive in NJ than TX, and heavy logistics expenses as well.

You forgot to log off your account earlier 4th floor info comms. Got tempted to post a troll thread tbh...

Damn, you were there too?

[Spurtacular]

Just throwing sh** against the wall and hoping something sticks....

My 1992 class was about 45% women, smart, sexy Harvard-Radcliffe women. And there's always all-female Wellesley College nearby if you want to branch out.

[Cry Havoc]

and perennially bad athletics bring it down.

What the is this tripe?

There is not a single academic ins ution worth it's salt in the WORLD that gives two s about the quality of your athletic program (other than, you know, as a way to fund research). You think a Harvard degree is trash because they suck at sports? You think a Michigan State degree matters more because of Tom ing Izzo?

For someone so open about how "wicked smaht" he is, you clearly have a very flawed idea of the educational system. Academia and sports might as well be on different planets for how much they influence each other.

Worst thread ever

[UNT Eagles 2016]

My 1992 class was about 45% women, smart, sexy Harvard-Radcliffe women. And there's always all-female Wellesley College nearby if you want to branch out.

there's an all female college nearby here in Denton, but everyone knows it's a bunch of uggos, feminazis and androgynous types/lesbians (none of which mutually exclusive).

To be sapiosexual is a good thing, but the problem is that the females who are that way are almost always (at least socially) ultra left wing and -- even worse -- are often bisexual, which grosses me out to no end. Even the ones that aren't bi are likely to be weird and "alternative" and/or "hipster". I need an old fashioned kind of girl to be faithful to me. I'm not into religion but I could live with that as long as she loves me more than any deity or character in some multi-millennia old novel.

[SouthernFried]

The most successful people I know...didn't even go to college.

College is for the average Joe, like me. Your success is more determined by what you do outside of college. Unless you wanna be President of the US. Then which college you went to is ALL that matters.

[Venti Quattro]

The Warriors are not like the 2004-05 Suns.

They play on both ends of the floor, they just got off a championship and are playing at a blistering pace after those cunts from the Clippers gave them fuel to torch the league

While there are similarities, it's very, very weak at best.

To some extent I disagree, having a fairly successful athletic program is a way of keeping alumni donations up which does matter, when it comes to things like on campus amenities, and dorms as well as various other facilities. For your truly top elite academic schools its not a big deal but it can make a big difference for many mid sized universities and some smaller schools. It is also useful in keeping public awareness of your university up. Between two qualified candidates for a job the one who went to a bigger name uni will often get a nod from the HR interviewer.

I do agree that in alot of cases you don't see a huge amount of day to day interaction between the athletic department and the academic side at many schools at others you do. Lots of smaller colleges have classes that are taught at least in part by coaches or have coaches stand as speakers or interview pieces for communications, media and various development degrees as well.

[Gagnrath]

I guess you could be referring to the bible as a multi millennial old novel but to argue that its multi millennial is tough considering the way it was reformed and revised. Its also far more of an anthology than a novel. If you can cite a single novel more than 1000 years old please do because I'd like to know about it. I'd honestly really like to know of a novel before about 1475 a.d. honestly.

I did put a piece in there about funding research, should have opened it to a more general "funding", though.

Look at the top schools:

Harvard. at sports.
Princeton. at sports
Yale.
Columbia.
Stanford -- good at sports
UChicago
MIT - loooool
Duke - good at sports

I mean, the idea that sports has ANY impact on the standing that you'll have when you choose to get a job is bogus. Unless you're lucky enough to be interviewed by someone who had the same alma mater as you, even suggesting it is silly. The working world at large does not care about the quality of a sports team, for 's sake.

If there were ANY correlation between athletic achievement and reputation in the job market, you would either A) see terrible schools like Michigan State and LSU shooting *way* up in the rankings, or B) you'd see the elites making a move to improve their sports compe ion. It doesn't happen, and it won't happen, because again, they don't matter. There's no way I can put this more clearly.

Between two qualified candidates for a job the one who went to a bigger name uni will often get a nod from the HR interviewer.

Incredibly wrong. If you put two candidates on a business application, and one of them went to Ohio State, and the other to Columbia, all things being equal the OSU grad's resume is going in the trash as soon as they see those words. That despite OSU being much more well-known throughout the country. I realize this is a sports website where we all love to come and shoot the but the real world just doesn't work that way. Turning down Princeton (recently ranked as #1 in the country) for any school that isn't considered elite tier is just ing stupid. You can make contacts in 4 years at Princeton that would take a lifetime to achieve through other teams. I think the OP is full of it.
