Absolutely.

Dude, you still post here? I took a more or less six-month uninterrupted LOA, to finish the dissertation. I've been contributing, quite regularly, for the last several weeks.

Funniest article I've ever seen here. Of course, I don't come here as often as a lot of you. Nice job, though.

Are you sure you haven't been fired yet, Trans? I mean, sure you are still posting, but maybe they've fired you and they are waiting until Friday to fire you?

Submitted by Transmission on Mon, 05/15/2006 - 05:02 pm

Pretty sure. I've slept with so many people in pursuit of clawing my way onto the front page, they wouldn't dare fire me, now. So is the Friday Firing thing legit? They fire you on a Friday so that you have the weekend to cool down, and not do something rash like take a weapon into the office the next day? I can just imagine myself going on an ax-wielding rampage through TCR Central HQ, in LOCATION CENSORED BY ECHELON Ax as in lumberjack implement, not as in that stupid body-spray...

Submitted by Bleeding Blue on Mon, 05/15/2006 - 05:17 pm

I can say this, I've been fired once and it was on a Friday. I can also say one of my co-workers just got axed a week ago, and that also happened to be on a Friday.

Good thing if they do fire you, you long haired granola eating Badger!

Submitted by 433 on Mon, 05/15/2006 - 05:10 pm

So all you have to do is sleep with someone to get onto the front page? Who would that be? Or should I just try to make love to my keyboard? again

"So is the Friday Firing thing legit? They fire you on a Friday so that you have the weekend to cool down, and not do something rash like take a weapon into the office the next day?" I took a class this semester in Organizational Communications and that is exactly what they do.

Submitted by bacon on Mon, 05/15/2006 - 05:27 pm

this is the only thread i will read. instead of firing you on friday, they should just move your office to the storage room. And remove you from the payroll. It will take care of itself then. Slow and steady, no pain. What would you steal from work if they fired you?

Submitted by cubswinthepennant on Tue, 05/16/2006 - 05:22 am

Trans, some body!, we need a new discussion thread for today's game.

Submitted by aaronb on Tue, 05/16/2006 - 05:30 am

trans, Be wary if someone comes in and takes your stapler. another sure sign is if they move extra boxes into your office as storage. Or worse yet is if they move your office into the basement. That happened to my uncle Milton before he retired to the tropics.

Submitted by Transmission on Tue, 05/16/2006 - 05:14 am

I'm going to assume Rob G or Ruz is doing the preview.... What would I steal from the TCR Secret World HQ? Probably the inflatable Don Zimmer.

Submitted by Bill Lundburgh on Tue, 05/16/2006 - 05:46 am

yeah, transmission......I gonna need you to go ahead and ....... do this next preview......... and ......Im also going to need you to do it on saturday.........so if you could just come on in on saturday.......... and sunday to.......great.....

Submitted by Bob S on Tue, 05/16/2006 - 05:58 pm

It's about time someone had the balls to come out and post a "Fire Transmission" thread. Good job Trans.

Submitted by Kenosha_Stephen on Tue, 05/16/2006 - 05:57 pm

I say keep Trans....at least he adds some comedy on parachat ...wait, he's a Badger- sheesh! (Go Gophers)

Submitted by Transmission on Tue, 05/16/2006 - 05:57 pm

HAH! Ok, Ok, Fire Trans thread wins for comedy-per-post ratio, over the other three open threads.

    Folks, I've known Richard Lovelady since he was an 18 yr old Freshman at East Ga State College in Swainsboro, Ga.

    I was the WBB Coach at EGSC and Richard was their prize recruit from outside of Hinesville, Ga.

    My roommate was the Pitching Coach there.

    Richard showed up a skinny, loose lipped, 83mph Lefty. Pretty good basketball player actually. 

    My roommate became the head coach.

    Richard came back from a minor injury for his Sophmore year a more serious man. He hit 90mph and started mowing GA JUCO hitters down. It was really fun to watch.

    He was the first D1 signee for EGSC baseball (school had only had athletics for five yrs at that point). He went to Kennesaw St and became their closer. One yr later, he hit 100mph and KC drafted him in the 10th Rd. 

    He lost the high velo with a surgery a while back.

    It's so cool to see him in MLB. And now he's a Cub!! It's crazy to realize I actually "know" a Cub.

    He's a legit good guy.

    Easy to root for!!!

    Tim. Thanks for remembering Lee Elia Day. It will always be one of the most epic rants in all sports.  It took about 3 seconds to recognize him from your picture but I  did get it right. 

    Now that Les Grobstein is no longer with us, that might contribute to this grand piece of Cubbery fading.

    Just like fine wine, it should be savored...unedited. 40 years, wow.
