No. But that doesn't relate at all to what we are talking about.

Right. You dont think Keiland got the message?

that seriously happens all the time

without pulling strings, people get promoted because they generate business for firms.


9 times out of 10 the harder worker generates more money for whatever business they are in.


you have a lot to learn. I realize you are fresh at your job...maybe down the road you'll see what I am talking about.

if i had a company i'd promote the guy who was best for my company, which would almost assuredly be the guy who made my company the most money



which assuredly would be the guy who works the hardest.

there are hard workers who can make money

but there are a lot of hard workers who have the social intelligence/charm of a dead turtle and have no real promotion prospects

there are some fields that require both to really get ahead. sports/entertainment agents come to mind. hell most things involving the business side of sports and entertainment fall into this category

Nice. But the question is Egg... do you bring your own food to work, cook it in the common microwave, and then does the smell linger in the break room for over an hour after you're done with it?

ETA: And I've had a bad enough day already to not worry about the 666 curse.

you're right

let's say i'm going for a job against a person who works a lot harder than me but i have a better gpa, and i get the job. i don't think that's wrong, and that happens all the time

quote:

i'm basing my knowledge off what a lot of corporate lawyers told me. many of whom are the guys who worked hard, didn't be promoted, and ended up quitting as a result. i'm actually not in that kind of position at the moment.

in that situation, the hard worker

but i'm assuming that keiland will have the most net positive effect as a RB on the team. if he doesn't, then no, he doesn't deserve to start. and i've said that charles scott may be the guy to be the most positive back

but i strongly believe KW and Scott were our 2 best backs LAST year

Trindon Holliday does. I wouldn't call him a half asser though.

My point being that KW likely will (if he doesn't already) run a sub 4.4.

Maybe.. Still the fact remains that both Scott & Holliday both have better yards per carry average than KW in both 2006 & 2007.

First off, Holliday is not a "runningback."

Secondly, KW has averaged 6.5 ypc over about 150 carries. Scott's sampling size is a good bit smaller (he has more than 50 fewer carries over that time if I remember correctly).

By your reasoning, Hester must have really sucked.

where's the link that says KW doesn't know his assignments?


Go back about a hundred and fifty pages, someone quoted one of the coaches as saying that KW often ran to the wrong hole. Who thinks football requires a high IQ?

Since you mentioned intelligence, are you implying the lack of was the reason he went to Hargrave?

He went to Hargrave because of his age.
