Sorry to change the topic here, but what the hell does tailgates mean? I'm from Australia, and I've never heard that term other than as doing something illegall. Care to enlighten me?

(Go Ravens!)



The eating/drinking/hanging out you do outside the stadium before the game is called tailgaiting.

Tailgating = stuff your face and get drunk with a bunch of other crazy fans in the parking lot before you go inside and and make a fool of yourself because you drank too much before the game

The best part is hanging out with the 'professional' tail-gaters, those folks that bring an RV stuffed with food and beer. Lots and lots of beer. 3 or 4 grills for the burgers, dogs, ribs and chicken. Pro games over here are pretty cool, even the Falcons and their lame ass team has awesome tailgates. The best - from what I've seen - are in hard core football towns like Pittsburg and Green Bay, though I've heard the best BBQ you'll ever get at a tailgate is in Kansas City. The college tailgates are different. More lively since it's a college town, less stuff since it's broke college students. You'll get alum that go all out with live bands and catered BBQ though. All in all the tailgating is a big part of Saturdays and Sundays in the states

matta, should you have heard of my researchers? You said you are in a different field. and if you are a PhD you know how specialized the research and literature are.

Anyway, besides your general douchebaggery (you are an angry kid!) it is a good thing you haven't heard of any of our researchers since they are mostly grad students, and the pros who publish in peer reviewed journals aren't in your field anyway. But good luck trying to break into this field just the same. Maybe you can do a paper on the environmental impact of rice burners or living with your parents.



It doesn't matter what field anyone is in. A good academic surveys all literature. I'm sure your papers reference stochastic optimization, game theory, psychometrics, econometrics, etc.

Besides, you're a little smug, here. So let me get this straight. You're just a student, not even a candidate, so that makes you either a first-week student, or at the start of your second year, but either way, someone who has done nothing, including publish. You go to a 3rd tier school, after coming out of a 2nd tier school (so you took a step down), and joined a not-so-methodologically intensive program, and you're talking smack?

What middle school do you go to?
ouch


lol It's nothing personal, that's my wife's school, so I've got to give you a hard time.

There's a lot of poly sci majors on here. You'd think it's a real degree.

Look matta, I'm not being smug. Or, at least I wasn't before. YOU ASKED ME what I do. I provided you a link without comment, and then you tore it apart. I didn't start this pissing match, but now I'm simply pointing out that you often act like a douchebag to others and that you have no leg to stand on since you live with your parents and seek family advice from strangers on internet message boards. Pretty straight forward.

Anyway, in your attacks you are just getting farther and farther off the deep end. Where do you get this stuff? I have no idea what you mean by my grad program being a step down from a second tier school. My undergrad was from a 5th tier school. So Rutgers is like friggin Harvard comparatively.

Regarding Rutgers, it is the 4th rated planning program in the country. But you'd know that if you knew anything about my field. WE are behind MIT and Berkeley, but ahead of Cornell, Harvard, Columbia etc... http://www.planetizen.com/topschools

A good academic surveys all literature, in every field and area of focus? Surely you jest. You just sound silly.

How do you figure you know what year of my study I'm in? I'm the executive director of a think tank that I founded and grew from nothing, and that is my full-time job. I do happen to be a candidate and working on my dissertation, and I have a few small publications. But who cares where I am in that, since I'm only doing that on the side.

erica, what state prison is half your team in now? Hey good luck on September 15! Maybe the NCAA won't take 15 scholarships a year and no bowl games for 3 years away from you. hahaha

Erica,

You are totally getting the hang of cutting down long statements to their core elements.
