    Yeah, all that would be required is a little disclaimer at the bottom of the ad. It's not a big deal.

    No, the Ray Rice stuff was under the personal conduct policy. Not covered by the CBA. Stuff like drug suspensions is though.

    Brutul, your hypothetical employee isn't representing your brand nearly as strongly as NFL players represent that of the NFL. It's not a good analogy.

    Alright, there's a case to be made that this custom results in the mill making more money by selling the customer less than they expected, then.

    If you know; what happens to the extra wood? Is it waste, or does it get turned into pulp/whatever?

    Yeah. It makes perfect sense the way Borzak explained it, but if you'd asked me before today, I would've said that they'd be exactly 2" by 4", maybe with a small variance.

    Oh, come on. Stop rattling out the "it's not 2"x4"!" crap. The designation clearly came from the inches involved, and even you admit that it's the rough measurements at one point in the process. Don't get me wrong; I think the ruling is a bit silly. But there's a decent case to be made that...

    I'm just trolling you a little. No harm meant! I wonder why those arguments weren't made in court, or why they weren't persuasive to the judge if they were.

    I don't understand it fully myself; as it's been explained to me, iOS processes the guitar signal in a way that eliminates latency that Android (or Windows Phone as far as I'm aware) can't. I can confirm that there aren't any such apps for Android, as far as I can find. It wouldn't be the...

    If it's an industry standard the way it is, I think the judge's ruling is a little stupid and not likely to stand up in higher courts. The name should probably be a bit more descriptive, though, since not everybody buying lumber is a professional.

    I think my question is too niche-y, so I'll ask a broader question: What's the best Android phone right now on Verizon? I'd prefer something a little smaller since I'm short so I have smaller pockets, but it's not the end of the world if a larger device is clearly the best. I don't want to...

    That's interesting. I knew they were smaller than 2x4 would imply, but not by a half inch in either direction. That seems like a lot.

    Goodell clearly did the absolute minimum to "investigate" what Rice did, in the hopes of being able to keep a marketable young player in the league. I'd be shocked if it turns out that he'd never seen the full tape, as he claims. He might be getting railroaded a bit, but him resigning is...

    That's all fine, but I'm still wondering about the answer to my question. From what I understand, iOS is the only phone OS that processes music data rapidly enough to allow things like guitar rig emulation to work. I'm assuming that Windows phone won't do it either but I'm not sure. It's a...

    I'm kicking around the idea of a Windows phone, but I'd be reluctant to give up the guitar apps on my iPhone. Does anyone know if Windows phones have the inherent latency issues that prevent stuff like that from working on Android?

    I have less time to play now than I used to, as well; I'm going to school, have a new girlfriend, etc. But it's still great to just pick up the guitar for 20 minutes while I'm watching a baseball game or something and noodle around. (pun intended!)

    Honestly, it was a bitch to play. Not much left in the way of frets and a bit of a neck twist. But I got to play an almost bone stock first year Strat. The thread died mostly because I wasn't posting, I imagine. Long story short, I went through a period where I got pissed off and dumped...
