The NFL is cracking down on players who wear the wrong headphones

http://twitter.com/#!/NQS88/status/521389506595799040

Yes, you read that correctly. The NFL is now fining players who wear the popular “Beats” headphones instead of those made by NFL sponsor, Bose. And players are incurring fines rather than switch:

NFL fines be damned, players are still wearing Beats headphones: http://t.co/KwWlXaeAT9

NFL players are still wearing Beats by Dre and daring the NFL to fine them.. http://t.co/iZP94wuP1K #redskins #NFL #HTTR

The NFL’s policy to fine players over this doesn’t make much sense, however. For every fine the NFL levies on a player, “Beats” gets tons of free publicity. There’s some speculation that Beats, which is owned by Apple, will pay the fines for the players, making this pretty cheap advertising for Beats:

It is hilarious how the NFL's ban & fine on players using Beats has caused Beats to get so much more coverage. #streisandeffect

— Wes Miller (@getwired) October 12, 2014

NFL QBs wearing Beats pre-game and getting $10k fine is the greatest advertisement Dr Dre/Apple or whoever owns em now could ever wish for.

— DAVIS HSU (@DavisHsuSeattle) October 12, 2014

If Beats is paying NFL players to take a $10k fine then that is fantastic marketing. Rule No.1: make sure people talk about your product.

— Matt Brian (@m4tt) October 12, 2014

But until we know if Beats is paying the fines and, in effect, using the ban as a marketing ploy, there’s a lot of negative sentiment directed toward the players on Twitter. i.e., It must be nice to have the kind of cash to laugh off $10,000:

@Deadspin must be nice to have thousands of dollars to spend because you want to wear some crappy over priced headphones as a status symbol

— Daniel Erickson (@Texanfuzz414) October 12, 2014

The beats ban in the NFL is stupid, but your more stupid if if youre ok with the 10k fine each wk to wear them anyways.

— Pam (@PRod85) October 12, 2014

You know what's ridiculous? I'm taking out loans to pay for my education but NFL players are paying $10,000 per game to wear Beats

— Kira Fad (@KayFad) October 12, 2014

@Deadspin and people wonder why many of these guys are broke after retiring

— Daniel Erickson (@Texanfuzz414) October 12, 2014

And this user discovered that anybody who decided to Google this whole NFL and Beats controversy gets reminded of the league’s other problem, domestic abuse:

Haven't been following this NFL "Beats" headphones controversy so I thought I'd Google it… pic.twitter.com/w3T8A9bW0z

— Eric Michel (@ericmichel) October 12, 2014

Great job, NFL. You’re giving mega publicity to a competitor’s product AND reminding people that the league has a domestic assault problem:

Massive fines by the NFL hasn't stopped players from putting Beats on their head…or from putting Beats on their wives for that matter.

— Joe Praino (@FixYourLife) October 12, 2014

Fix that Beats by Dre problem before it gets out of hand, @NFL. Ignore that domestic violence problem until it is thrust into the spotlight.

Getting A Job At Goldman Sachs Is Harder Than Getting Into Harvard

Nearly 270,000 people applied for 8,300 Goldman Sachs jobs in 2014.

BuzzFeed, Goldman Sachs, Stanford, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT

Despite a wave of trend stories about finance losing out in prestige to technology and the persistently poor reputation of investment banks following the financial crisis, a lot of people still want to work at Goldman Sachs, and very few get the opportunity to do so.

In a presentation given at a Credit Suisse conference in South Florida, Goldman Sachs Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Lloyd Blankfein said that “nearly 270,000” people applied for 8,300 open positions at the company, and that, of the roughly 3% of those that got job offers, “nearly 90%” accepted them. “We remain the employer of choice in our industry,” Blankfein said.

While it’s not a perfect comparison, Goldman is in some sense harder to get into than the elite schools that it draws on for many of its bankers and traders. Harvard admitted 5.9% of its applicants for the class of 2018, while Stanford admitted just 5.1%. Yale’s acceptance rate was just over 5%, with Princeton and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology both taking in just under 8% of applicants.

Last year, Goldman said its analyst program, which recruits a few hundred people directly from colleges and universities, made job offers to 4% of its applicants.

The difficulty of getting a job at Goldman comes despite the bank’s pay levels staying relatively low, alongside revenues that are basically unchanged over the past years. Goldman spent $12.7 billion on employee compensation in 2014, the bank said, or 37% of its total revenues. In 2007, Goldman’s $20.19 billion in compensation expense was 44% of its total revenues.

Hey, how’s that “Recovery Summer” working out for ya?

http://twitter.com/#!/whpresscorps/status/209317697895415809

In the wake of Friday’s disastrous jobs numbers, combined with oblivious White House spin, Twitter commentators this weekend are reminiscing about Team Obama’s vaunted “Recovery Summer” launched two years ago this month.

How is everyone enjoying RECOVERY SUMMER III?!? Re-elect Obama/Biden so we can have RECOVERY SUMMER IV, V, VI, & VII. #tcot #hewitt #sgp #p2

— Repeal Obamacare (@GreatHairGuy) June 3, 2012

So what ever happened to Recovery Summer 2010? Not really feeling it two years later… #tcot #Mitt2012

— Dustin Walker (@dustinrwalker) June 3, 2012

Flashback June 2010:

Vice President Joe Biden today will kick off the Obama administration’s “Recovery Summer,” a six-week-long push designed to highlight the jobs accompanying a surge in stimulus-funded projects to improve highways, parks, drinking water and other public works.

David Axelrod, a senior adviser to the president, said: “This summer will be the most active Recovery Act season yet, with thousands of highly-visible road, bridge, water and other infrastructure projects breaking ground across the country, giving the American people a first-hand look at the Recovery Act in their own backyards and making it crystal clear what the cost would have been of doing nothing.”

Remember folks, the 2nd anniversary of the Democrats' "Recovery Summer" is this month! Start planning your parties now! http://t.co/ilYBnSfj
