Thanks guys... Was gonna get the A40 originally but couldn't find it local.

Didn't know the A50 was out... Will look into that :-)


I was severely disappointed at the mic quality of the XP500... $250 phones with a mic that sounds like a $3 walmart PC mic.


I put them up for sale on CL at 150, thanks for the advice guys.

I hear this a lot. What is this based on? Also, exactly how does this affect his on-field performance?

It's pure speculation on my part. He doesn't seem to carry himself with the confidence of a leader.

I think the effect on the on-field play is minute, but it most certainly exists to some extent in the amount of drive his teammates have, whether subconsciously or consciously.

LSU GranDad, I agree completely with him seemingly not taking charge. I think he has some issues in the leadership department as well as some anxiety issues that aren't necessarily unrealistic given what he has put himself into.

I do see those issues improving, but whether or not they improve enough is the question. I still feel he can be a successful QB even if he is not to improve much in the leadership area. Not ideal, obviously, and I have no delusions of him being a hall of fame QB, but I do feel he can get the job done given time and effort.

I'll make ya granny suck my dick ya know to whiten up her dentures. :lol:

So you're disputing that? What are your expectations of him given the WR and O-line situation?

To those wondering, the mentioned magazine revenue models have been a bit off base in this thread...

Canceling subscriptions DIRECTLY hurts SI, refusing to buy at newsstand price DIRECTLY hurts SI...

This is how the revenue works for all magazine publishers (with lowest percentage of revenue being all the way to the right):

Advertising > Newsstand Sales > Subscriptions

I've owned successful subscription sales businesses, and was regularly offered $0.25-2.00 for each year of a subscription I sold rather than having to pay the publisher, they paid me. So, 3 years of US Weekly sold @ $29.95/yr, my cost -$2.00/yr, I'm profiting roughly $128 on a $120 sale (later got my publisher contracts revoked for selling below authorized prices; they insisted I sell at $79.95/yr and a competitor reported me (magazine industry is 100% price-fixed).

Publishers make their advertising money based on total circulation numbers. This includes news stand sales as well as subscriptions.

EVERY news stand sale lost and EVERY subscription lost brings these numbers down and directly impacts their main revenue stream, as well as the minute revenue that sales and subs bring in.
