We could really use him for the stretch run. Seriously, isn't this the argument for some kind of idiot clause? I get that Thabeet is making gobs of money, even when he gets sent to North Dakota (how many Tanzanians are in ND?), but can't they come up with some escape/return/ejection/undrafting clause that let's guys, who were never ready in the first place, go back to college for the tourney? It's like expanded rosters for the playoffs!
Maybe I'm biased because UConn has so many of these guys: Rudy Gay, Donyell Marshall, Thabeet, etc. I'm shocked Stanley Robinson stuck around after last year. Despite his terrible year, I'm sure someone was telling him he had the right "length" and "ability."

Hey Cabbie
Posted by grill at 11:15 PMYou know what's coming next, right? I mean seriously, do not complain to me about my using the credit card system installed in your cab. It's in there exactly so I can use it. I get that it takes days to process, that's why I gave you a bigger tip than normal (and than you ephing deserved (taking the extra long way, thinking I wasn't paying attention)). Don't wait until after I give you said tip to sigh and say, "oh jeez, what the hell? It takes ten days to process, man!" I know this isn't unique to Boston cabs either. Cab drivers everywhere seem to hate it. I get it, you want cash. When I have it, I'm happy to pay with cash. But when I don't, just relax and deal with it, I'm sure I'm not the first (or last) person to pay with credit card.
And, by the way, you work in a service industry. So be happy that I don't take your crappy ass service as an excuse not to reward you for crappy as service. If you want to complain, GFY. I'm swiping.
