>In thinking about the use of Linq for retrieving data from SQL Server or in paticular via the Entity Framework, I have been wondering about the role of stored procedures. It has been my thinking for quite some time that using stored procedures was a best practice and often a requirement. Now with Linq, how is this practice affected?

Using Stored Procedures are often overkill when using ORMs, unless you have a crazy DBA who requires it.
