  • Why the heck did the Heat give Bosh that deal?

    He's an all-star, maybe; certainly not a superstar. Why the heck did he get this deal? Lebron is really the only one who deserves max money, to be fair, it's crazy for anyone who isn't the best.

  • Can the celtics get into the playoffs this year?

    I get it, they're bad, but hear me out. Rondo is brilliant and truly makes his teammates better, Sullinger can grab boards with the best of them (despite his height), Olynk is a good scorer and is getting better fast, Green is already a solid scorer, Bradley is an amazing defender, and they've got solid role players in Zeller & Smart (who are loaded with potential) and Wallace & Bass (who give good production and are great locker room presences). Why can't this team make a run at a playoff spot?

  • I want to upgrade my NBA 2k11, but how?

    Looking to upgrade from NBA 2k11, I love it but it's becoming outdated. I make roster changes to keep up with the times, but there are so many that it's impossible, especially considering all the players who weren't even in the league in 2011. I'd love to get the newest game, but I only have a Wii, and they no longer make it for that system. I'm not sure how to upgrade (I'm not willing to buy a new game system), any advice?

    Thanks in advance

  • should I get an antibiotic?

    I am going on my fourth day sick. I've been coughing up yellow-brown phlegm, have had increasing hoarseness (started out just minimal and has slowly gotten worse. today I can barely talk). I have minor nasal congestion and moderate chest congestion.

    Is it worth it to go to the doctor and asking for antibiotic?

    Side question: Would you advise for or against exercise (jogging)?

  • I am having trouble installing devpro?

    I have downloaded devpro before, but I am having trouble. When I go to devpro.org, I instead get to

    http://ygopro.de/en/ which doesn't look like the website I see in the youtube videos or the website that I remember. There is no simple download button, so I just click "mirror 1". Norton 360 says it is untrusted, and it wants me to download an additional program that I don't remember installing before. Am I overreacting? Is it safe? Or is this a bogus site that I shouldn't trust?

    Please offer any insight you can. I am sick of duelingnetwork, I want to go back to devpro!

  • which schools should I send my SAT II scores to?

    My scores are

    English Lit 780

    Math Level I 670

    Math Level II 650

    My schools are

    Brown

    Yale

    Amherst College

    Tufts

    Brandeis

    College of the Holy Cross

    Hampshire

    UMass

    The lit score is going everywhere, but where should I send the math scores? They're not overly impressive. And if I were to only send 2, which math one would I send?

  • could you help me with this Gladiator Beast deck?

    I'm not familiar with the archetype, but I fooled around with it and tested out a deck on dueling network this weekend, and it's doing alright. I mainly run frognarchs, but would like a decent 2nd deck, so i'd like to buy this soon. Before I do, could you critique this? I want it to be at it's best before I spend money on it. Any tips you have would be appreciated!

    Keep in mind, though, that I am building it on the cheap, which is why i don't have effect veilors, tiger kings, or prismas.

    Also, any tips you have to help acquire these cards in a cheaper way (is there some structure deck/tin out there that would be worth my while?) would be appreciated.

    Thanks so much!!!

  • Could you critique my poem?

    This is a poem I wrote. Honestly, poetry isn't my thing. I'm better with narratives and essays, but I'd like to become better at writing poetry. This doesn't really have great flow, I know, but I'm really not sure how to make it better. I'd appreciate your tips.

    My Shadow

    When I turn off the light,

    My black self is casted onto the far wall.

    He asserts himself onto my mind,

    With the antithesis of my learning left in his wake;

    Love to hatred,

    Acceptance to exclusion,

    And soil to ashes.

    With the light on,

    My shadow disappears.

    Perhaps I can water those ashes,

    And focus the light on them,

    And perhaps a sprout will form, weak at first,

    But given time and effort, a tree will grow.

  • How nervy is it to ask for a ride this early?

    Okay, I got invited along with three other guys from my school to this choral music festival at UMass Amherst. I would LOVE to go to this. However, here's the problem: I need to be at my school (5 minutes away) by 5:45 am. My mom doesn't want to wake up this early to drive me, and I don't have a car. I'm pretty good friends with one of the other guys and pretty friendly with another, so a ride wouldn't normally be a problem. It's just, at 5:45, I hate to ask someone's parent to make an extra stop so early. Also, the van we rented isn't coming back to the school, which would mean I'd have to tag along with someone else for the 2 and a half hour drive back from UMass at 830 pm (my family doesn't want to drive to Amherst to see the show/pick me up).

    I don't know what to do. I want to go so bad! But would asking for these rides by nervy? I don't want to tick off my friends' parents.

  • Have you noticed that a bunch of movies are trying to be The social Network?

    The Social Network was a great, creative, and unique movie. Then, Jobs came in and tried to replicate the whole idea of a thoughtful film about a (technological) visionary. Watching The Fifth Estate commercial, I'm getting the same vibe as the first two movies. I'm sure that there are more that I haven't seen. Is this a new trend for which we can thank The Social Network, or are these couple movies just trying really hard to be The Social Network? Or am I being dumb???

  • How can we get the old format back?

    For now I am using Answers Canada, but if that switches I am done with Yahoo Answers permanently. Promise. I've been annoyed a little by format changes on other sites, but this is a dealbreaker for me, Yahoo. Is there any way for us to keep it in the old format? Or an option to go back and forth between the formats? Anything that I, personally, can do?

  • Hurt my arm in basketball, got elbowed?

    So I play in a summer basketball league. Some larger kid ran past me and elbowed me hard in the arm (in between the shoulder and elbow). I was immediately sore, and the feeling stayed for about 36 hours. I noticed discomfort especially when flexing my muscles, clapping, and carrying laundry. It's now been about two weeks, and day to day it's fine, but I've noticed that the day after I work out, the soreness returns- it's not intense by any means, but definitely present.

    Any tips guys? Comments? Thanks!
