YAO!
It's not a good time to be alive if you're pining for a time when it seemed like less effort was to be rewarded with more than satisfactory financial compensation. It never should be, really. The light rain on labor day leads me to these thoughts. Paid vacation is a horrible concept; part of overcoming the fear of having done nothing with your life is realizing how hard you have to work to try and make memories; that european vacation/teaching english in Spain, the student loans that are in forbearance, the unfinished, unabridged War and Peace lying in a duffle bag.
What is good? William T. Vollmann is making ask more questions; every time you seem to reach a conclusion about some kind of morality (power, he posits, is amoral), you realize that your foundation still has lingering doubts; you build a home with the finest italian marble, perfectly aged oak 2X4's, neither of which stop the bomb from burning you and all your possessions in to oblivion. But seriously, what is good?! Fucking, eating and communication; how much can you really ask for?
Does anyone have a copy of the Broom of the System, that shit sounds interesting?
Oh shit, Darryl Morey is a celebrity GM! I blame Bill Simmons. I also blame Princeton, Harvard, Yale, and especially William and Mary.
SON OF ADELMAN reigns supreme, like nachos, on the bench.
Get to know RJ:
R.J. Adelman enters his first season as an assistant coach for the Rockets. In addition to his coaching duties, Adelman’s focus will be on the team’s advance scouting operations.
Before coming to Houston, Adelman worked as an NBA advance scout for the Seattle SuperSonics. He also served five years as a scout for the Sacramento Kings, including the final three seasons as assistant video coordinator in the Basketball Operations Department.
He joined Maloof Sports and Entertainment after practicing law in Portland, Oregon, working in private practice and as a real estate lawyer for GMAC Mortgage.
Adelman was a four-year letterman in basketball at Willamette University in Salem, Oregon, which won the NAIA Division II National Championship in 1993. After completing his bachelor’s degree in political science from Willamette in 1995, Adelman earned his law degree from the University of Oregon in 2001.
BOOOORING.
