  1. Pfft, as if Nickel's some special case....you like to mess with *everyone's* head AJ.
  2. As someone who works in a technical support position, allow me to say I love this phenomenon. It happens so frequently and always provides a laugh watching/listening to the other person try and explain it. Its like watching Mrs. Kravitz on Bewitched all over again.
  3. Totally echo MS's post. I'm proud to say that I've been a part of this site for almost 1 and a quarter years now. The primary reason people gravitate here is that the information/insight/discussion on not just Sprint but the entire wireless industry/technology spectrum the best you'll find anywhere, with a little something for everyone to be able to increase their own knowledge and understanding to something better than it was when they arrived---and that's the best thing about this place for me by the way; even if I weren't a Sprint customer, this would be an awesome knowledge/insight resource even then. But for the most part the actual community and people here are outstanding as well. And if you're like me, while it was the information that got you here, its the people/personalities that keep you here, from Robert on down. Thanks to everyone, and especially the staff/mods/etc that help keep this place running smoothly.
  4. As much as I dislike Auburn, the outcome of that game had nothing to do with luck on their side this time. However outmatched otherwise, they came to play whereas Alabama had way, way too many execution issues, for whatever reason. And honestly, the long field goal try wasn't the play that bothered me at all even in hindsight. What ground my gears so much is why they tried running Yeldon to the outside again on that 4th and very short play instead of just letting AJ take charge with the QB sneak. I was screaming at the tv for that before what ended up happening.
  5. This past weekend was the final week of picks in the Yahoo College Pick'em contest for the 2013 season, and Scott was the highest non-Premier member participant at the end, placing third. Therefore, as promised, I have just made a $50 S4GRU donation in Scott's name towards becoming a full fledged Premier member of the site. Those of you who played, it was alot of fun for me at least, and I hope next year we can do it again and maybe even have more participants the next time around! Congrats again Scott, hope this helps get you over the final hurdle man!
  6. I'll be fair and say that, if the right camera angle had been available, I do think Murray's knee was down before the ball crossed the chalk plane on Georgia's last TD and it would have been overturned, but the TD standing isn't anywhere near in league of luck with what happened at the end.
  7. Can I just say....I hate Auburn even more than usual right now. All games/teams have a little luck in the mix to some degree, but I swear, they're the most consistently luckiest SOB's in college football.
  8. I'm still firmly in the neither/PC Master Race camp here. Just built a new system a little over a month ago in fact, first one in about 4-5 years. And keeping a keen eye on the ongoing development of Star Citizen in particular.
  9. Daily Driver: A 2010 Hyundai Elantra Blue Dream Car: Two pronged answer here. (a.) To own (assuming I had the money), a fully restored silver-birch Aston Martin DB5 as seen in several Bond films, notably Goldfinger. Have always loved the look/styling of that baby. (b.) Not sure if I'd want to own one or not, but for one day of my life, I've always wanted to be able to drive one of these: http://bit.ly/1aB0Quw
  10. The sad thing is, that's not the first time I've ever done that. In this group it is I think but I've done it with my other normal yearly group with my Bama fan friends. I had an extremely busy week though and was pressed for time when I went through and did them this week.
  11. Ugh....score one major misclick for me when doing my picks, what I get for doing it in a rush. For the record, there's no way in *hell* that even if I by some miraculous moment of stupidity decided to pick Massachusetts to upset Northern Illinois that I would have spent 23 confidence points in doing so.
  12. I've not had a Moto phone prior to this one, but others have said the reception is not up to normal Moto standards. That said, it does better than my previous Samsung Epic 4G (1st gen Galaxy S phone) by a good bit in that regard. The only place I ever have any issue is sometimes in my building at work, but that has nothing to do with my phone nor Sprint either. I have to carry a Verizon based flipphone for work and it can get sucked down to 1/3rd or less charge just sitting idle in a normal 8 hour workday in that place sometimes.
  13. My question would be, how to-the-letter-of-policy are they in terms of even sending a warning (outside of obviously egregious overages)? And does someone in the process look at exactly where the roaming occurred? The idealist in me would like to think that if you say doubled the supposed limit for example (which would be 600MB on the old plans such as I'm still on) because you were traveling in an area in which there was simply no other choice but roaming, they'd let that slide and wouldn't even send a warning. Or even if it were more than that, to weigh your native on-network usage versus what you've done vs. roaming. Obviously if someone is consistently in roaming coverage comparatively, it would be hard to justify keeping them on, but it would be nice if there were some sort of logical analysis in the mix before someone was just arbitrarily warned much less dumped. Back to the OP, maybe they could institute some sort of dual-cap hybrid scenario that incorporates the OP's suggestion, i.e. roaming is free up to 250MB per month. Past that, its X amount per megabyte which is very reasonable/competitive and not hurt those that may travel to areas with only roaming as an option much, but those rates only apply up to 1GB of usage, at which point the per-megabyte charges jump to hefty/significant per-MB charges past that.
  14. You say that as if you don't believe its true. Shame on you for doubting him. Although...who said anything about just wings? Are you suggesting Robert isn't a leg, thigh and breast man too?
  15. If Ole Miss can beat LSU I certainly think they're capable of beating Missouri. I've not thought Florida as good as advertised all year, and I actually initially picked Missouri this week but had second thoughts and went back and changed it last minute last night with the same points spent on the pick both ways. >.< I did however pick Missouri to beat Georgia last week successfully. If Franklin hadn't have gone down last week I'd have stuck with them all the way this week.
