I am thinking of applying for a job with Kroenke to work for the Colorado Avalanche and the Denver Nuggets. In the job description it asks that applicants submit a resume via e-mail. My instinct is to submit a cover letter and references page as well, but then I got to thinking...

I applied for a job with Kroenke once before and added the cover letter and references page to the e-mail, thinking it would show initiative. A week before the application deadline arrived they sent me an e-mail saying I wasn't being considered. I may not have been the most qualified candidate, but their rejection seemed a little hasty. Some companies add disclaimers like "anyone submitting anything other than the requested information will be immediately dismissed", but the Kroenke posting included no such disclaimer.

Now here's the kicker. The job I got rejected for was with the Colorado Rapids, a completely different organization and facility. So now I'm wondering: Was it the Rapids or Kroenke that didn't appreciate the extra information, or was I simply less qualified than the job description led me to believe?

My instinct still tells me to submit a cover letter and references page, so any input would be greatly appreciated!

I've been searching but have only found one, the St. Louis Dispatch-Post. Everything else appears to be weekly or online.

Thank you for your help.

I've had nasty experiences with buying albums because I liked the singles, only to discover that the rest of the album sucks.

Thanks.

The disc reader on my laptop has suddenly stopped working. I've tried games, CD's, movies and even a cleaning disc but the computer isn't reading any of them. I've done virus scans and updates and everything else I can think of. Thanks for your help.

I've surfed around the internet but nothing seems to fit what I need. What sort of place can do that for me (in other words, what should I search for?)?

Motor posed an interesting question about whether or not, for the fourth year in a row, an unassisted triple play would be turned at some point during the season.

It occurred to me that it also might be the fourth year in a row in which a tiebreaker game settles the final playoff spot. Perhaps it'll be the third year in a row that the Twins need to play 163 to decide the AL Central.

What do you think? In which division might a tiebreaker be likely this year?

Here's one of my favorites

I heard that as a rumor and I was wondering if it's true.

Is anyone else having trouble requesting delivery? I'd like to know if there's something wrong with my computer or if it's a problem with their system.

I got to the screen that lets me select the cards I want delivered, then when I tried to proceed I got only an error message. Now I can't even get back to the selection screen; I just get the same error message. Also, my cards no longer appear in "my collection".

Anyone else having this problem? Thanks.

Mine is Brandon Webb. One of the best sinkers in the game and an absolute work-horse. I hope he gets healthy soon.

He's been extended through 2013, after which he is expected to retire. I think he'll be in the Hall of Fame if he can stay healthy for these 4 seasons (unfortunately, that seems to be a big "if") and continue to produce to the point that he reaches at least 2400 career hits and maybe 600 career doubles. He also spent his entire career with one team; Helton stayed with a Rockies team that hadn't seen playoff action in 12 years (having already been in the majors for 10 years, 2007 was his first time in the postseason). He continues to show that dedication with this recent extension, even though, realistically, it is improbable that he and the Rockies will win a World Series by 2013.

From what I understand, the real difference in graphics and gameplay between the games applies for the more sophisticated PS3. On the PSP, there really didn't seem to be much of a difference between '08 and '09, so should I even bother getting '10?

Should I bother getting it removed?

I'll be going to Arizona for spring break to visit my girlfriend. I'll have some free time while she's in class so I'll be going to the Cubs vs. A's game March 8th.

Anyone else have spring training plans?

"I know I won't be here next year, so I'll just enjoy myself," Manny said according to MLB.com

The Nationals were playing the Mets at Citi Field on opening day. The game was tied 4-4 in the top of the 9th inning when a Nationals righty hits a solo shot to give the Nats the lead 5-4.

I am a fan of neither team, I don't know how the dream game actually ended, and I know they're not playing on opening day, but could this happen when the Nats first visit New York (April 9-11 is pretty close though, pretty close to opening day)?

Circular motion?

Kill or stun? How much of a role would size play?
