The New York tabloids are abuzz about Giants defensive end Michael Strahan's comeback, although The Post is certainly running circles around the Daily News in terms of fueling the fire.
According to Strahan's agent, Tony Agnone, GM Jerry Reese made the phone call everyone had been waiting for Monday.
"Jerry said, 'Hey, you think Michael would have some interest?'" Agnone told The Post. "Obviously there's not any Pro Bowl defensive ends out there except him. I'm sure there's a part of him that wants to play. Do I think it's a big part? No."
But at some point (like now), the Giants will ask Strahan to name his price. The number we keep hearing is $8 million, but ESPN's Chris Mortensen said he thinks the figure will be more than that. I've also read in a couple of places that Reese and Strahan were at odds when the defensive end skipped training camp last year.
Well, I talked to Reese about that topic two weeks ago in Albany. At some point during the 2007 season, Reese went up to Strahan and said, "I just want you to know that I didn't take that stuff you said personally."
Strahan later told Reese that he had a lot of respect for him and that he would never be able to do his job. All that to say that there's a mutual respect in place that allows Reese to feel comfortable reaching out to Strahan.
I do think the Giants will go out of their way not to pressure Strahan too much. They don't want to put him in a position where he looks disloyal by not returning. And I think that's the right way to go.

LAS VEGAS, NV -- (Marketwire) -- 01/07/13 -- 2013 International Consumer Electronics Show - AMD (NYSE: AMD) today launched the AMD Radeon HD 8000M Series of mobile graphics processing units (GPUs) set to deliver discrete graphics performance to a variety of notebook designs, including the incredibly portable ultrathin form factor. The AMD Radeon HD 8000M Series are the first notebook GPUs to be offered with the award-winning AMD Graphics Core Next (GCN) Architecture, which delivers exceptional compute power and performance while stretching battery life through AMD Enduro Technology (1, 2). Designs are currently shipping with ASUS and Samsung, with Lenovo and additional OEMs shipping soon.
Additionally, AMD announced the availability of AMD Radeon HD 8000 Series desktop graphics, available only through OEMs. The AMD Radeon HD 8000 Series features revolutionary GCN Architecture with support for DirectX® 11.1 for optimal acceleration of Windows® 8 platforms, AMD App Acceleration to enhance GPU performance, and features intelligent power management technology such as AMD PowerTune with boost(1, 3, 4). Both announcements represent a commitment from AMD to provide the ideal graphics solution for everyday notebook and desktop users, whether they're gaming, streaming online HD videos, creating presentations or editing photos or videos.
"Today's simultaneous launches of our AMD Radeon HD 8000M Series for mobile and the AMD Radeon HD 8000 Series for desktop graphics symbolize a major milestone for AMD -- we are now bringing the capabilities of our GCN Architecture, and full DirectX 11.1 support to a much broader market," said Matt Skynner, corporate vice president and general manager, AMD Graphics.

The AMD Radeon HD 8800M, HD 8700M, HD 8600M and HD 8500M GPUs are graphics powerhouses, ideal for users who are seeking to upgrade their existing notebook and want a superior, industry-leading graphics experience. Whether on-the-go, at work or at home, the AMD Radeon HD 8000M Series meets the everyday demands of any user.

Growing up in the Brewster Projects gave this comedian a nitty-gritty toughness By Kyle Norris • Mar 19, 2015 LEG Management Listen Listening... / 3:53 The first federally-funded housing projects for African-American families were built in Detroit in the 1930s. They were the Brewster-Douglass Housing Projects, located on Detroit's near-east side. If you want to hear why they were built, listen to our recent story here. Mary Wilson from The Supremes tells us about what she learned from growing up in the projects, in a story you can listen to here.

This Friday, an exhibition called Yusef Lateef: Towards the Unknown will open in the Trinosophes art space on Gratiot in Detroit. It will run through May 10. Rebecca Mazzei, co-owner of Trinosophes, thinks the exhibition will be important for all people to see – whether they're familiar with Lateef's work or not. She said the exhibit will speak to "why he was so important to the city and why the city was so important to him," though she added that he also brought some "important cultural movements to the national scene as well." Motown legend says Brewster-Douglass taught her "people are people" By Kyle Norris • Mar 18, 2015 Nationaal Archief (Dutch National Archives) Listen Listening... / 5:23 Today on Stateside, we're getting the inside scoop from former residents of the Brewster-Douglass housing projects about what it was like growing up in the Detroit projects. Their answers are overwhelmingly positive. Ruby Straughter lived in the Brewster-Douglass projects from 1957 to 1972. She remembers people in the projects taking good care of each other. "If a family couldn't pay rent, neighbors would throw a rent party and they'd give the money to whomever needed the rent paid." She says no one ever went hungry or made fun of anyone else for being poor. Straughter remembers parents were strict with their own kids, and looked out for other people's children as well. There was also lots and lots of singing in the Brewsters. People sang four-part harmonies on street corners, in the parks, on porches and in the stairwells, where the echo was best. But why was music such a huge part of living there? "Let's Review": Are celebrities obligated to be role models?

|Fast Break: Rajon Rondo's not enough vs. 76ers
|11.09.12 at 10:11 pm ET
Rajon Rondo may have continued his streak of games with double-digit assists, but the 76ers backcourt combined for 46 points, 18 assists and 15 rebounds, and the Celtics' defense let another playoff foe from last season reach the century mark in a 106-100 loss to their Atlantic Division rivals.
Jrue Holiday (21 points, 14 assists) and Evan Turner (25 points, 11 rebounds) torched the C's.
Rondo finished with 14 points and 20 assists while Paul Pierce (24 points), Kevin Garnett (19 points, 10 rebounds) and Jason Terry (13 points) all reached double figures, but the Celtics got little help from the bench beyond the guy who dubbed their reserves the best in basketball, as Jeff Green (1-5 FG) struggled once again.
A little help: Outside of Garnett and Lee, the Celtics started an atrocious 1-of-18 from the field, settling for far too many jump shots. Rondo (1-5), Pierce (0-5), Green (0-3) and Bass (0-3) all couldn't find the basket through most of the first half, and the Celtics fell behind by double digits for the third time in five games.
Wet paint: While the Celtics seemed content launching from mid-range, the Sixers attacked the rim. In the first half, Philly scored 30 points in the paint and added 18 fast break points — compared to 14 and two, respectively, for the C's — resulting in a 57-45 Sixers lead at the break. Evan Turner, in particular, victimized Pierce, scoring four of his six first-half buckets at the rim. In all, the Sixers outscored the C's 56-38 in the paint and 26-9 in transition.
Downtown daggers: Somehow, the Celtics failed to defend the basket and the 3-point line. In all, the 76ers shot 7-of-13 from beyond the arc, including a Jrue Holiday triple with five minutes to play that helped keep the surging C's at bay. In all, Boston opponents are shooting 34-of-84 from long-distance (40.5 3P%). Both the number of makes and attempts illustrates the inability of Celtics wings to close out on the perimeter.
First five: The Celtics actually started off strong defensively, holding the 76ers to a 1-of-9 shooting start and building leads of 6-0 and 8-3 on the back of Garnett, but as has been the case all season, things went south when KG took his five-minute sabbaticals. Sullinger/Bass and Bass/Wilcox combinations quickly turned five- and six-point leads into five- and six-point deficits with Garnett on the bench.
Making a point: In the third quarter, Rondo did everything he could to will his lackadaisical team back into the game. He had his hand in the C's first five buckets after the break (layup, jumper, assist, 1-2 FT, layup, assist). In the meantime, he notched his 10th assist, tying John Stockton for the NBA's third-longest streak of 10-plus assists (29 games) and recording his fifth straight double-double to start the season.
Terry time: Often referring to himself as a clutch player, Jason Terry put his words into actions. Twice he drew the Celtics within three points in the fourth quarter — on a 3-pointer that trimmed the lead to 83-80 and a 12-foot floater that cut the edge to 93-90 — as he reached double digits off the bench for the third time in four games. Perhaps more importantly, Rivers has given the all-important closer's role at shooting guard to Terry in the last two games, including all 12 minutes of the fourth quarter on Friday night.
|Irish Coffee: Celtics no longer intimidate NBA dregs
|at 8:37 am ET
When Jeff Green suggested "teams are no longer scared" of the Celtics after they lost to the Bucks, it seemed to be his interpretation of Kevin Garnett's postgame "pack of hyenas" speech. Under Doc Rivers in the KG era, the C's earned a reputation for playing defense with an edge, and without it they're just another basketball team.
So, when even 19-year-old rookies born in the Bill Clinton era don't fear the Celtics, who will?
"We know they're vulnerable," said Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal, the NBA's third overall draft pick in 2012. "We know that they are an aggressive team, but they are a lot older then we are, so we are going to try and wear them down. They have a decent bench, and their bench comes in and gives them immediate scoring — everybody has the green light. So, our plan is basically to wear them down and keep pushing the ball in transition and make sure our pick-and-roll defense is what it needs to be, especially on Paul Pierce."
Beal wasn't the only Washingtonian unfazed by the Garden banners or Celtics mystique. If the current C's players can't get inside the heads of NBA newcomers or make them think twice about driving the lane, then they're no longer hyenas on the hunt. Instead, Wizards and Bucks smell blood in the water.
Take Kevin Seraphin as Exhibit B. In two games against the Celtics, the 22-year-old product of France has totaled 35 points and 16 rebounds. So, when Garnett trapped him in the corner late in the fourth quarter, drew an offensive foul and tried to snatch the ball away from him after the whistle, he wasn't intimidated, resulting in a Garnett technical and an 84-82 Wizards lead with 1:07 remaining. Who's in whose head now?
|Doc Rivers has another unmistakable message for his team
|11.08.12 at 1:32 pm ET
This has been an early season of "message sending" for Doc Rivers.
After the first two games, the Celtics head coach talked about not trying to win games by playing one-on-one basketball.
On Monday, after barely surviving blowing a 16-point second-half lead in Washington Saturday night and watching the Wizards reserves dominate the Celtics second unit, the theme turned to the bench. "I'm not going to change the way I use [Kevin Garnett]. If our bench doesn't score, then we'll lose, simple."
Well, he got a much better effort from Chris Wilcox (albeit four minutes), Jason Terry and Brandon Bass off the bench on Wednesday night and it was the biggest reason why the Celtics won, 100-94 in overtime.
But what Rivers saw early on as his team fell behind and what he saw late in the fourth quarter were the two things he focused on afterward.
'Well, we won the game," Rivers said. "And right now that's the type of team we are. We're not playing great. It's good to win a game like that. We've won two like that. You knew coming into this night, no matter who you're playing, when you're play a team back-to-back games, you give them three days, you knew it'd be a tough game. But we made it so much harder. I thought we played for the first five minutes great, and then we went back to old habits. I thought our energy was terrible.
"I thought Chris Wilcox saved the game for us, singlehandedly, with his effort. And I thought it was obvious. He didn't do anything but played hard and played with great effort. And I thought that that leadership led everybody else into doing. Kevin, always, I always exclude him because he always plays the right way. But we've got to get more guys that play harder, better. I don't care about 'well,' you know, I don't care if we play 'well' or not, because that's just human. If you can make shots or not, it happens. But we just have to play with a better focus and we've got to run our schemes better.'
Next up for the 2-2 Celtics, the 2-2 Sixers, who are coming off a win in New Orleans Wednesday night and will be in town Friday night. What will Doc's message be? Stay tuned.
Doc Rivers made a point of telling his team Wednesday night that he didn't care how well they played but rather how hard they played.
His point was that if you play with great energy, good results will follow even when the execution isn't always there.
Brandon Bass got that message, even if it took overtime to do it.
Bass scored five straight points in overtime, reading his teammates and running down the floor, as the Celtics overcame the Wizards, 100-94, in overtime. He finished with 11 points and seven rebounds in 33 minutes off the bench as the Celtics reserves, including Chris Wilcox, finally found a way to help in a win.
"That's part of me improving as a player," Bass said. "That's what I want to do for this team this year, help any way l can."
After hitting one of two free throws with 2:21 left in overtime, Bass took a pass from Rondo after a Wizards turnover and went to the basket for a layup, putting Boston up, 95-92.
Then, after a missed shot by the Wizards on a chance to tie, Rajon Rondo hauled in the rebound and rewarded Bass who was sprinting up the court all by himself.
"Me and Rondo had switched on that play and he got the rebound so I sprinted out and finished," Bass said.
Paul Pierce said what he liked about Bass' play so much Wednesday was the fact he didn't think but rather played instinctively. Bass agreed.
"That was huge," Bass said. "That's how I'm going to be at my best, when I'm out there just reacting, just defending and playing with a whole lot of energy. That's what I tried to do.
"Be mentally tougher. On a team like this, watching the guys and how they deal with adversity, it can only help me and that's what it did."
|The newest Kevin Garnett analogy is a weird one
|at 1:12 am ET
You're in for something special when even Kevin Garnett admits, "That was a weird interview." Last season, he compared team chemistry to frying tortillas and baking cakes. This year? After the Celtics (2-2) escaped a second straight game against the depleted Wizards, KG invoked cable providers and DVR in one strange analogy.
"You can't speed chemistry up," said KG. "I think the more practice, the more you get familiar with each other. There's no hit the fast forward button here. You've got Comcast. Some shows you can't fast forward through. You've just got to let it go through and watch the silly ass commercials and be pissed, right? This is what this is.
|Fast Break: Celtics survive another Wizards scare
|11.07.12 at 10:21 pm ET
Thanks to double-doubles from the Big Three, the Celtics survived a second straight game against a Wizards team missing two of its best players. It wasn't pretty — and required OT — but the Cs' evened their record at 2-2.
Rondo's 18 points and 14 assists in the 100-94 victory moved him alone into third place in NBA history with 28 consecutive games with 10-plus assists (behind John Stockton's 29, Stockton's 37 and Magic Johnson's 44).
Garnett (20 points, 13 rebounds) committed what could've been a costly technical foul when he jerked his elbow in Kevin Seraphin's direction late in the fourth quarter, but two Paul Pierce (15 points, 10 rebounds) steals and a Rondo 20-footer with 26 seconds left helped force overtime as Rondo's 3-pionter at the end of regulation fell short. The C's defense arrived just in time to salvage the game in OT.
First things first: The Celtics repeatedly assure the offense will come once they can get back to playing the kind of defense that's been the trademark of their success the past five seasons. Wednesday night's first quarter was a start. Led by Garnett and Lee, the Celtics held the Wizards to 29.2 percent shooting (7-24 FG) in the first 12 minutes, building a 21-16 lead that should have been bigger if not for five C's turnovers.
Garnett gold: Since nobody else put forth any effort in the opening 24 minutes, Garnett exerted twice as much. By halftime, he had 10 rebounds, seven points and two blocks. His final first-half defensive stand was remarkable, singlehandedly guarding the right side of the court and eventually blocking a Trevor Booker layup attempt with two seconds left on the shot clock. Without KG on the floor, the C's finished minus-13 before the break.
Forward progress: Finally given an opportunity to contribute midway through the third quarter, Chris Wilcox ran the floor with Rondo, made his only field goal and got to the line five times for six points to go along with two boards and a block. In just four minutes of action, he finished a plus-11 — while Garnett sat on the bench.
Very Terry: After admitting it was an adjustment to mesh with a new system, Jason Terry finally asserted himself into the offense. He took 15 shots, made seven of them and scored 16 points off the bench. Somehow, the C's reserves still got outscored, 53-41.
As a member of Mark Cuban's ever-changing Mavericks, Jason Terry saw his share of rookies, castaways and veterans enter the turnstiles attempting to adjust to the Dallas system. Even last season, a year out from winning the NBA championship, the Mavs lost five of their top 12 rotation players. Now, Terry's the one adjusting.
"We had a lot of turnover in Dallas where we'd bring in new guys every year, it seemed like, so this is nothing new, but for me it's definitely an adjustment," said Terry, who averaged 15.1 points, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals last season. "And I know for the guys that have been here, it's an adjustment for them, because they're used to playing one way and now you're implementing guys who are used to playing another, so it's difficult."
Even if last year's Mavericks lost Tyson Chandler, Juan Barea, Caron Butler, DeShawn Stevenson and Peja Stojakovic, they returned nine players from the title team while adding Vince Carter and Lamar Odom. Yet, Dallas dropped from a No. 3 to a 7 seed during the lockout season and got swept by the Thunder in the first round.
"For us, it never jelled," said Terry, who made his desire to keep the championship core together clear at the time. "It never happened. That's why we were out in the first round. It can happen, or it won't."
This season, the Celtics returned only four players from the roster that lost Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals to the Heat. Even when you include Avery Bradley, Chris Wilcox and Jeff Green, coach Doc Rivers still has eight fresh faces in his locker room. What's to say this team never jells?

What To Look Out For Today - The Three Congressional Scenarios
From Citi's Steven Englander
What To Look Out For Today: Posturing OK, But Watch Out For Amendments
The key for markets when they reopen is whether the House passes the fiscal cliff fix. Bother Boehner and Pelosi have indicated they support bringing the bill to a vote but they have not endorsed it. There are reports that the House vote would be as early as 2PM but that seems unlikely given the need for debate and posturing. Other reports suggest a vote around 5PM. The key is not when the vote occurs or how much Representatives denounce the imperfections of the fix, but whether they get a majority to pass it. So it's a case of ignoring the rhetoric and seeing how many votes there are, and for reasons discussed below they are likely to be there.
The news that would tank markets when they open is the House passing the bill with significant amendments. It is unlikely that Democrats have the votes to significantly amend the bill, so any amendments would come from the Republican side. That would mean another round of voting in the Senate and quite probably an unchoreographed fall over the cliff. Markets would sell off badly on that outcome. House Republicans meet at 1PM before the House reconvenes, so be prepared for a storm of invective.
The Senate voted 89-8 overnight to pass the fiscal cliff fix. The provisions were pretty much as discussed Monday afternoon and a very good summary is found in the Washington Post link.
Technically, the US has gone over the fiscal cliff, as the IRS pointedly indicated early today, so House members will be voting to cut taxes rather than raise them. So between the dairy fix (which extends dairy subsidies), the Medicare doctor fix, the permanent AMT fix, the unemployment benefits extension fix, the estate tax fix, the capital gains/dividend tax pretty good fix, and so on, there are enough important Democrat and Republican constituencies that will be severely damaged that the House cannot afford to vote it down. The voting in the House will likely be closer as Representatives who may face a 2014 challenge will be given a pass to show a 'Demonstration of Character' but the odds are strong that the votes will be there.
The other reason that Republicans will likely vote 'yes' is that the sequester is delayed, not derailed, so those spending cuts will come on line in two months. In the meantime, they are obligated to find some savings elsewhere in the budget to lower spending partially in line with the sequester over the next two months. Combined with the debt ceiling, the republicans will have a couple of bites at the spending apple in coming months, so they are not giving up much by voting 'yes' today.
- A close vote before 6PM – Asian markets open up, catching up to the Monday S&P move; S&P futures probably have priced in most of the benefit of the fiscal cliff resolution. EUR CAD, and AUD have a bit of catching up to do with the S&P, but there should be little drama
- A rancorous debate that extends into the night – again the key will be whether the votes are there, however, reluctantly, but if it looks as if support is waning we will see sharp moves in markets. With brinkmanship the new normal, the sell-off will be partial on the view that a last minute rabbit will be pulled from a hat.
- Amendments or rejection – markets will sell off sharply. If it turns out that the House can't vote 'yes' on an acceptable, yet inelegant fix, the confidence that has emerged in 11th hour fixes will dissipate and tail risk scenarios will shift into baseline outcomes. This would be USDJPY negative, but risk-correlated currencies now price in 80-90% probably of a successful fix in our view, so the downside pressures will be large.

Hey, do you think Purdue has a chance today against Oklahoma State? I'm considering putting a bundle on the Boilers with the spread.
Oh, and the house will pass it. The massive buying after the bell yesterday kinda told that tale. The in-the-know already know.
Just imagine how much the 545 "legally" made in their day trading accounts
and to that point perhaps they want to drag it into tomorrow for one last visit to the trough
the gift that keeps on giving
Algos will love it...another 3 digit gain tomorrow.
Commodities up and precious metals holding solid... Oil nearly $92 a barrel. I think it's a trap
If you are interested in looking through the actual bill which passed the Senate, here is the link. http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/D?c112:4:./temp/~c112oifWqi::
Of particular interest is the extension of significant tax breaks for multinational corporations domiciled in the US.
The following link explains how this works in terms even I can understand.
Politics -- Show Biz for Ugly people!
Link dead. What is the bill number. Skimmed a dozen articles on this bill and not one mention of the bill number. Journalism is dead...
The Bill number is HR 8.
No need to read it. You can trust them.
Try this and go to 7.
As a Buckeye I'd say stand clear of that bet.
17 points...
But, yea, could be a blow out also.
Oh, and house will pass the bill.
It should be a good game either way.
It's only fair to give a shout out to the good folks at Capital One and AT&T for being sponsors.
My favorite last week was the Bell Helicopter Military Bowl.
(The JP Morgan Chase commercials are especially heart-warming.)
Next year can we expect the Homeland Security Bowl Week brought to us by MERS?
Oh yeah, they were talking about that. Audience participation at half time, burning, lashing and stoning the less patriotic, derisional, those of sanrky and cynical comments, the non believers and anybody else randomly scooped off the street who appears to be white Anglo-Saxon protestant male or just plain Christian or just gives a shit about more than Dancing for the Tsars.
It seems to me that a callous has developed around my mind.
I only absorb enough of TV and commercials to piss me off; the rest just bounces away.
Speaking of attendence...I see a lot of empty seats at the games. (They ARE green shoots but we aren't supposed to notice)
It's just an excuse to drink beer down here at Rattlesnake Ranch and I've got an ice-cold 18-pack to slam down.
In terms of overall deficit reduction, this looks a lot like about 60Billion off of 1.15 Trillion. The ratings agencies SHOULD cut AAA over this failure to cut the deficit sharply and immediately.
I have the fortune of going to church with my State Senator (not to mention decades of campaigning) whom I have tried repeatedly to get to grasp what 40% less fed money would mean (my buddy is Deputy Director at the DOR, Sheila's former Chief of Staff and he thinks I'm nuts too) and she was shocked last weekend that Boehners offer was rejected by the president...he already gave on the taxes... "I only recently realized they arent going to fix this."
"Sheila, I know you think I'm nuts but this does not end well. These are not real cuts and the tax increases are a further drag on our state."
Anyway...Game on Wayne.
Game over Garth.
Like the market has any bearing on the economy.
If there is a resolution it will just be to figure out what the capital gains tax rate will be so they can monkey hammer the market the extra percentage needed to cover the tax bill.
I'd like the capital gains tax rate to be 95% just to end the farce of the stock market as a source of wealth once and for all.
Excellent point. Since Bernanke can print indefinitely, supposedly without consequence, thereby driving the market to new highs forever, why not raise the capital gains tax rate much, much higher. It's a win, win for everyone, right?
yep, we're all gonna get DP'd.
It's like the tiny little band-aid in the box that you look at and wonder what could that possibly be used for.
But, but, but, the markets soared yesterday so I thought it was all perfect and fixed and everything
Three people trading, 26 year old interns maning desks and no credit market after 1pm.
Market perfectly efficient.
Kicking the Can wll be looked back on, years from now, as the perfect fix. Sound insane? Sure. But it has yet to fail as a strategy: Greece, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Ireland...and Japan, who have been Kicking the Can for 20+ years and STILL ranks in the Top 10 in standard of living. If Japan can be successful KTC for 20 years and counting, how long do you think the US can pull it off?
Smooth - the difference is that the USD is the world's reserve currency.
- The US has bailed out the EUR for the past 3 years or the EUR would be dust.
- Japan has a homgenuos population of Savers. They domactually buy their Gov't worthless bonds. Additionally, Japan has largely been a US protectorate since WWII.
- The US will ahve 6 to 12 months before "they" try to fix the inflation problem. Price ceilings? Forecd purchases (if they can force Obamacare) for the common good?
- The can is going to become very heavy. It is going to get very real.
Japan has a homgenuos population of Savers. They domactually buy their Gov't worthless bonds.
No longer, the elderly outnumber the young, and they have had to use that 25% savings all up to live on.
The Fed has bailed out the EUR for the past 3 years or the EUR would be dust.( and not 10% of the working sheeple have a clue.
I hope Congress refuses to pass that POS bill.
Show some fucking sack and force everyone back to the table to negoiate a REAL solution. That includes the debt ceiling. Even if it takes until MARCH.
I would not bet the corn-turd I cranked out this morning on that happening.
If SP 1400 holds when the dust settles Wed or Thurs..... then TPTB will have won again (fooling the sheeple), and panecea of kicking-the-can will control the markets for 2013.
What the chances of that? Like 1 in 1?
Does anyone that reads and posts to zh have any skin in the game? There are alot of edgy remarks, but I rarely see anyone one say, "I'm short the es, etc." Alot of "fuck bernanke........" Is everyone that reads zh "too smart to be in the market?"
I do know this:anyone short yesterday got their head ripped off. If I recall, alot of people predicted that there would be nothing done in congress last night---that the market would fall apart??? Just askin?
My guess is that the house will pass tonight and you get a es move up tomorrow by 1-2%
Short of an exigent event, the equity market will move up the remainder of the year 5-10%
Every citizen has 'skin in the game'. Considering Bernake is (illegally) buying equities with US notes, we're all 'in the market'.
Funny thing is, remember all the liberals crying and whining about Bush Jr. privatizing part of Social Security? But they support Obama going all in now.
Obama is like Bush cubed, and for all the reasons the Dems hated Bush, they love Obama, even though he's tripled down on just about every Bush policy.
Of course, this is abundantly facilitated by the lapdog MSM.
I got my whole life savings in the game as my career path has never offered a pension or health care. I pay for it all, 100% by my little lonesome, self employed ass in the investment business.
I own lotsa bonds, primarily munis with a good dollop of TIPS and a few long Treasuries, off set with precious metals, as I sincerely believe we're following in the Japanese model for which there will be premiums paid going forward for income and inflation protection, together, during a period of stasis within a Liquidity Trap.
As I've stated here, numerous times.
That's skin, son.
Every day when I wake up, long, short or flat, I'm all in.
Big deal, SmoothCoolSmoke....it's like doing card tricks for sheep in a pen and declaring you fooled em...who gives a fuck?
I think it is a big deal SD, the biggest deal in fact...it is what keeps TPTB the TPTB. All TPTB are ego-manics. The don't love power cause it gives them money. Quite the opposite. Money is just a tool to retain their power. If the SP headed directly to 800 coming off this FC BS then something might really change. They know that all too well.
Well you can just sit and be mesmerized byt a 'scoreboard' that the fuktard sheeple are concerned with on their drive home from slave labor I myself dont really give a fuck. '13,000 = 'I WIN!' Yea whatever.
What's in Boner's flask today...hard cider or Everclear?
Hard cider is a European beverage. Only homos drink it in the US.
What? You can still be manly and drink non-beer alternatives. It's very metro-sexual.
I used to get hammered on Strongbow at the Blue Moon Tavern in Seattle. Oh, to be young again.
edit: and I'm hardly homo at all.
Canadians drink it.
Funny how they openly make decisions based on "the markets". No more pretending it's all for the good of the common man.
Every speech is timed for the sake of goosing "the markets"
Every vote timed based on "the markets" opening.
TARP vote was the last time a major vote happened while "the markets" were open?
The Obama does not want the can to be kicked.
The senate voted as expected (or told).
Obama prances around, and spun the spin as directed.
The media is doing their part.
The market run-up was to show the retirees and the interested that Obamas way is right.
When it all falls apart,
The right wingers and Tea Party Extremists will be blamed.
The can was only kicked to get another 4 years.
Time to use the Bully Pulpit.
There is a season for all things.
First Change.
Now Forward.

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Hi there. This is your NFC North correspondent interloping on the NFC East and NFC West blogs.
Enough with the pleasantries. It's a beautiful and sunny 65-degree morning, unheard-of weather for a rough-and-tumble NFC Championship Game. Weather.com is predicting a high of 79 before the day is over. But unless there is a change in plans, this game will be played indoors with the retractable roof closed at University of Phoenix Stadium.
There are some legitimate reasons for this, especially from Arizona's side. Crowd noise should be significantly louder with the roof closed. And apparently there are sections in this stadium that face directly into the sun on bright, sunny days like this. Not good for fan relations.
But the Cardinals should know that crowd noise hardly affected Philadelphia this season. The Eagles' 13 false starts were the third-fewest among NFL teams this season. You wonder whether they would be more impacted by a near-80 degree day than they would be by a loud crowd.

Copper Slips From Six-week High On Investor Fear Of US Fiscal Cliff
After hitting a six-week high on Wednesday, copper dipped Thursday on concern that US lawmakers won't be able to reach a deal that staves off the "fiscal cliff," spending cuts and tax increases that are set to automatically come into effect in 2013.
Copper got a boost earlier this week on hopes that a deal could be reached to avoid the fiscal cliff and on signs that demand for copper is improving in China, the world's largest consumer of the metal. Thomas Keller, CEO of Chile's Codelco, the world's largest copper producer, said this week that China's commitment to urbanization and industrialization should give the copper market a "healthy boost" in the coming years. Keller also said that even if China's economy only grows by a single digit going forward, "there's still a lot of tonnage adding to the demand globally," SteelGuru reported. Thursday, the rhetoric between the White House and the Republican-dominated House of Representatives suggested that it will be difficult for the two entities to reach a compromise, and investor unease put downward pressure on copper prices. Danske Bank analyst Christin Tuxen said the base metals market will be looking at the US non-farm payrolls data that comes out today. He said it will be "instrumental in showing how the labour market is doing in the United States, and that is important for the economy in general," Reuters reported. On the London Metal Exchange, copper for three-month delivery was slightly down, at $8,061 per tonne late Thursday compared to $8,065.25 the day before. On Wednesday, copper touched $8,095.75 in London, the highest since October 19, although it didn't come near a September high of $8,422. COMEX copper for March delivery was down 1.1 percent at $3.6455 per pound in mid-afternoon trade in New York.
