Yeah I knew about the MS Surface ipads. I just lumped them all into Apple mode. Just because I'm lazy and it just doesn't matter what we call them. I don't even own anything Apple.

I keep seeing this crap of trading Rodgers to Vegas and they get Carr in return and I ask why do we want that cap hit? Also I am guessing the Raiders will have to ask Adams before anything as the reason he went to the Raiders was to be with Carr and left Rodgers at the alter. Now my guess as who would be the best trade partner to me would be Seattle. Geno is a FA after the year and the Seahawks have $50 million in cap space, they have 2 stud wideouts and a young back. They also have the picks to give up by using their own 1sts and 2nds. (They are currently standing with the #3 pick and could actually move all the way to #1 from Denver) They have Geno and Lock as FA so they have to sign someone, so trade for Rodgers for 2 years or 3 maybe and with the early pick grab one of the stud QBs to let him sit for a couple years. Would Rodgers go there is the question and I say he would as I think he would love to be able to play SF twice a year and to stick it to them.  So to me that would be the best case scenario especially if they lose their last 2 then we could get #9 overall. But then again people will say it will never happen because we would make Seattle stronger, but I am not planning for Super Bowl in Loves first year so let Seattle battle for it as we know he will choke in the playoffs anyway.

They now steal and bully their technologies away from small time developers (e.g. people like me) and small companies. They know they can drag litigation out with their big shot lawyers and eventually force small companies to "settle". They have done this dozens of times. 

One thing that I do respect and admire about Apple is they have brilliant marketing strategy. Granted, when asked why they charge so much for the iPhone, the head sales person remarked "people view iPhone as status symbol" and inferred they knew they can charge whatever they want and the clowns will still buy it up. Nowadays Samsung steals from Apple. Apple steals from Samsung. The phones are similar in features with the exception that Apple still forces you to be an Apple sheep whereas Samsung (for the most part) allows you freedom.

Terrified anyone might share a file. Fuck the Empire.

And about the Seattle rumor, no I don’t think so. I was just responding to dhazer’s suggestion.

I don't think any QB with great options is going towards Pete Carroll and his old school philosophy...

Basically run the ball and play defense for 3 quarters... and only wants to pass the ball to get them out of holes ... otherwise he just wants a game manager QB.
