Output: Time for MAAR and Dawkins


Input: [Date] 28 weeks 19 hours ago [Body] Currently watching the BTN Big Ten Elite show on the 2013 runner up team. Loved the win, but there is definitely something missing from the team this year. I will say though that I really liked to see MAAR do his thing tonight. He's definitely an addition to this team, and I'm excited to see what he's made of once he grows some confidence and realizes he can really help this team. [Title]

Output: Currently watching the BTN

Input: [Date] 29 weeks 2 days ago [Body] Do you seriously think Alabama doesn't redshirt any of their players? A team like Alabama who not only recruits well but also develops well should have very few freshmen play in a given year because their depth chart is stacked with talented guys who have been developed. You are wasting years of players' eligibility (and player development) by burning through redshirts just because "it's not what elite programs do." So much wrong with this one. [Title]

Output: Do you seriously think


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I'm pretty sure the majority of the fan base, especially those who paid attention to recruiting, had a difficult time not seeing a future filled with success after that BCS win. I think that was a fair assessment given the success he had in his first year at UM. That's what fan bases do; success results in more success, and failure results in more failure. We live by the day way above what reality tells us where nothing is guaranteed. That's one reason there's so much emotion put into each win and loss by fans. [Title]

Output: I'm pretty sure the majority


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 2 days ago [Body] Not only that, but he will also force other teams to make changes because he will make them look terrible in comparison. [Title]

Input: [Date] 33 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Well sonofagun I already did my Christmas shopping. Must return gifts and repurchase now. On a semi-notsureifserious note, what if everyone on this board purchased some junk on Amazon through the mgoAmazon link.. that of course they were going to purchase anyway... and Brian set up a "Come Home Harbaugh" fundraiser via those funds. Think it could do some (positive) damage? I am not the creative type to come with what kind of legal actions could be done with such money, but Harbaugh's got to have some sort of Christmas wish list that we could partially fulfill. Dumb idea? Yeah thought so k thanks bye. [Title]

Output: Well sonofagun I already did

Input: [Date] 33 weeks 4 days ago [Body] I have found that the best option for getting what you want for Christmas is buying what you want yourself and then finding someone who is willing to not only give it to you but also reimburse you. [Title]

Input: [Date] 33 weeks 4 days ago [Body] We have non conference wins against Oregon and Syracuse not to mention a near win against Villanova. I think we are just hitting some growing pains with this young team - WE WILL BE FINE. If you think we are going to hit 20% from 3 all year... Coached by Sir Beilein... You're dang nuts. Defense looked good against a good shooting team. Once Harbaugh is announced as our new football coach, this team will come back to life. Of course if he isn't, well... Then God help us all. [Title]

Output: We have non conference wins

Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Isn't it odd that this thread was created by Coach Schiano, who is supposedly doing everything in his power to fill the coaching vacancy other than physically and forcefully planting his body in Hoke's office and refusing to leave until he's hired (or arrested)? [Title]

Output: Isn't it odd that this thread


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I don't think I cold have wanted one coach to be successful more than Brady Hoke. Such a classy guy, and you knew his influence on his players went well beyond the football field. Classy, classy man who truly cared for the University and his players. Really wish this could have worked out. He deserved any recognition he received today as his mark on those players is way more important in the grand scheme of things than the wins and losses. [Title]

Output: I have a suggestion for the "Matchups" section. Instead of puting "Wash." for when the teams are even or it's unknown, put "Even" or "Unsure", because (like an idiot) I keep thinking we're playing Washington when I see "Wash.", even though it's clearly a Minnesota preview. (Great work BTW. I enjoy reading these so keep them coming.)

Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Title] I Hate Myself [Body]

Output: For reading this.


Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Title] I Primarily Read [Body]

Output: Graphic novels instead of comics. My favorite graphic novel would have to be "Batman: The Long Halloween". The accompanying stories of "Batman: Year One" and "Batman" Dark Victory" are also solid, but nothing beats that Two-Face origin story. Coming in at a close second is a recent graphic novel called "ApocalyptiGirl: An Aria for the End Times" by Andrew MacLean. It's a great read with awesome artwork. I like to describe it as a mix between Samurai Jack and Adventure Time. Highly recommended.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 2 hours ago [Title] Not Sure [Body]

Output: Why you'd need a replacement set. Simply take your tickets to the game, keep them safe by bringing a folder or something that'll protect the ticket during the game, then store them until the season is over when you can frame them.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Well [Body]

Output: We had a good run there for the last 10 years. Time to fade back into obscurity again with 2 World Series and nothing to show for them. Yea, I'm in that kind of mood.

Output: When the board has less than 2 Nike themed posts at any given time.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Canton Class of '05? [Body]

Output: Looks like you and I have something very much in common. Coach Baechler has to be an institution in Canton by now, he's been there for some time. I never played football, and rarely went to games, but if his intensity as a gym teacher is any indication of his coaching intensity, then I can understand how he's had some successful teams over the years. At least he did a good job of keeping Salem in their place.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Is It Just Me [Body]

Output: Or do the years not make sense given Connor's supposed current age of 17? For this to be accurate, wouldn't Connor have to be 11 back in 2009?


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] This Thread [Body]

Output: Is quickly turning into a Negbang. So much salt (myself included) about this decision. I still trust in Harbaugh, and so should you.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Two Different Things [Body]

Output: A kid can list a school in his top group all he wants but it doesn't mean anything without reciprocation from the school. It's been known that Bama made a strong push for Kareem down the home stretch (in the last few weeks).


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I'm Sorry [Body]

Output: But this just reeks of bagmen. I'm not one to jump to that immediately but seriously, the late push by Bama snags a local kid who seemed like he was going Blue for so long.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Also [Body]

Output: He was the author of that original post and wanted people to know he appreciated the help. It's the long off-season, so even you shouldn't be THIS cranky about OT posts on a slow Saturday.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I'm Glad [Body]

Output: You enjoyed it. The rock nachos are amazing as well, with selections of BBQ chicken, brisket, or pork you can top it with. Also, eating a salad at a BBQ joint is blasphemous.

Input: [Date] 6 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Buy Vs. Rent [Body]

Output: If you plan on having kids (or have kids still in school), might I suggets avoiding Ypsi schools period. My future sister-in-law teaches in the district and attensts to how horrible the system is every day. Ypsi may have cheaper prices and all that, but at a cost, regardless of the BBQ. If you want something with charm that's close to AA but without the crazy costs, Northville, Canton, and parts of Plymouth are good. But chances are you're retired or have kids in college and all this is irrelevant, in which case, god speed in Ypsi!

Output: Just ask Notre Dame and the other 15 (estimated) football programs that are still paying Weis for doing nothing.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I Have To Agree [Body]

Output: When I want my BBQ fix, I head to Red Rock in Ypsilanti. If you're not set on eating in AA, I highly recommend trying Red Rock. Best BBQ in the area, IMO.

Input: [Date] 7 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Love It [Body]

Output: The more kids that we get that are hungry to prove themselves, the better. Hungry wolve(rine)s!


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 2 days ago [Title] It did? Please explain what [Body]

Output: It did? Please explain what point I missed. Brand recognition matters to an extent. Winning and player development matter more. The end. Harvard has great brand recognition. That data point means next to nothing without a competent football team to go along with it. But MSU is doing pretty well for themselves on the recruiting trail as of late even without a $100 million deal from Nike.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Or we could just win football [Body]

Output: Or we could just win football games? That would probably be helpful.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Porchetta on the pellet smoker [Body]

Output: Not the authentic Italian version with a suckling pig but I'll wrap a center cut pork loing in a huge piece of pork belly and roast on the smoker for 3 hours or so. I am a huge fan of the RecTec it allows me to not be attached to monitoring my fire for 6-12 hours when bbq'ing.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Oh, and run Bayshore in [Body]

Output: Oh, and run Bayshore in Traverse City in the spring if the oppurtunity comes up. That is a PR course and small scale marathon put on at a very high level.,


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 2 days ago [Title] We've only ever stayed at the [Body]

Output: We've only ever stayed at the RenCen, it is close and reasonable if you book through the detroit marathon link. The course is really nice, although most will tell you the back half is a little boring (it is) and sparsely populated by fans (true as well). Mostly flat course although the bridge will take its toll later in the race if you don't check your pace. You will have evil thoughts towards Belle isle forever - bridge incline mile 19 going on and 23 going off and will run into a head wind the entire time. I've run 5 differennt courses and Detroit on 4 occasions, I think it's a fairly hard course. Running my first Boston in 2 weeks so I'm interested to see how it stacks up in comparison. I was almost stopped heading into Canada by border police because my bib was concealed. I carry my enhanced ID for piece of mind by it probably isn't necessary although if you are stopped you are screwed. I've never seen anyone get stopped unless their bib is covered. Ambassodor bridge sunrise and coming out of the tunnel into America is unlike anything I've experienced in a race and for the cost I recommend.


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 1 day ago [Title] One of those future pros was [Body]

Output: One of those future pros was Griese, he started around 100 games if memory serves me right. Not saying he was a pro bowler but still it takes a little talent to accomplish that.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 6 days ago [Title] I have no love for Izzo, but [Body]

Output: I have no love for Izzo, but it sounds like he considers pre-college activity to be the source of the problem. I don't necessarily agree with his assessment but I don't think he is taking any sort of shot at Michigan. I'm also not sure how the question was asked but the part about Lavert probably get's the lead because he was a more significan player then Bess. He says identical things about both guys so he is either taking shots at himself and our coach or just commenting on the issue with no agenda what-so-ever. I'm not sure stress factures, tendonitis, or other over-use injuries are more common now but I think he has a point about taking time away to rest the body. Most of these injuries start as something the guys can play through so they do that and the cumulative effect sidelines them eventually.


Input: [Date] 30 weeks 6 days ago [Title] John Clayton already gave it [Body]

Output: John Clayton already gave it to you. He couldn't get an offer out of another NFL team because they all recognize his terrible personality will tear apart any organization he touches. So going back to college was his only option, you see? He literally begged Michigan to hire him.


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 1 day ago [Title] They basically made a front [Body]

Output: They basically made a front page story out of Schefter's tweet. I really can't remember if there ever was any integrity or investigative skill at ESPN back in the day, but now it is nothing more then sensationalized re-hashing of sporting events and news. They have nothing to offer when it comes to actual news stories and their "reporters" are ill equipped and trained to handle breaking news - they just don't have any practice at it. Didn't basically the same thing happen with Mantei Teo? Didn't ESPN refuse to report and acknowledge sources outside of their own? I get needing to verify sources and not just recycling the reporting of others if you can't independently verify - but the bigger problem seems that they aren't getting any information of their own. Well except for Wiley and they seem to be ignoring him.


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I thought that too but [Body]

Output: I thought that too but "staffers" could be any of 100 employees. Could be the water boy or it could be their anonymous league source. Or it is made up bullshit - I could go either way.


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 2 days ago [Title] It's been about a week that [Body]

Output: It's been about a week that Brian has seemingly believed that there is a better then good chance that Harbaugh was coming to Michigan right? All of that has been based on what are probably reliable sources, but he's been saying for days that his email box is flooded with credible pieces of info that point to Harbaugh returning to Michigan. So why last night does he post a front page piece stating that he is 99% sure that it's a done deal? He has been saying all along it is happening unless Harbaugh has a last minute change of heart. Yesterday's post doesn't happen because he go a 1000 more pieces of circumstantial evidence - Harbaugh could still change his mind. That post only happens because Brian has very very very good reason to believe it is signed, sealed, and delivered in writing.


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Only a handful of people [Body]

Output: Only a handful of people would have been in that room, so his information is still second or third hand right? Credible, but there is still a margin of error in that it could be false. But my guess is he has credible information that there is a written agreement and all of the circumstantial evidence bolsters that piece of information.


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Agreed [Body]

Output: And to take it a step further I fully believe there is a signed contract at this point. Brian mentioned that he doesn't have a picture of a contract, but I don't think he says those words and puts himself out there with 99% certainty unless there is something in writing. Even the athletic department seems to be too leaky at this point for it not to be a done deal. I think the rumor mill in A2 is in full effect because slowly more and more people who need to prepare for next week are being fed details - Hackett doesn't allow this to happen unless it's a done deal already.


Input: [Date] 36 weeks 1 day ago [Title] C'mon grow up and get some [Body]

Output: C'mon grow up and get some perspective, or get sober. Whichever helps more. HS football players sign with teams to get an education and play football at a high level. There are a lot of schools in this country which can give you an education on par with the University of Michigan, and I'm sure plenty of those have football programs that don't regress in developing their players. We are a shit-show right now whether you like it or not. Would you take a job with a company that was falling apart at the seams just because you have a sentimental attachement to it? Kids have to what is best for them. I hope we pull out of this someday soon but the recent history of this storied football program doesn't instill a lot of confidence or hope.


Input: [Date] 37 weeks 3 days ago [Title] So when people you don't know [Body]

Output: So when people you don't know continuously call your ugly-ass mom ugly you have no desire to rise to her defense? It's called civic pride. The fact that you call it a pretty crappy city means you probably grew up in Livonia or Farmington Hills and spent almost no appreciable time in Detroit. And having a measure of civic pride doesn't mean that you fail to recognize the many, many shortcomings that exist in the city. Thin skinned enough for you?


Input: [Date] 40 weeks 2 days ago [Title] The last six years might have [Body]

Output: The last six years might have done their best to slowly beat the youthful exuberance I once had for Michigan Football out of me. But today thanks to you CSree I am pushing all in. Beat State.

Output: Against my better judgment and good reason, I am upvoting this thread. Bravo CSree, bravo.

Input: [Date] 42 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I don't see where he even [Body]

Output: I don't see where he even hinted at cutting a kid's scholarship. But maybe prepare (through recruiting) so that he never has to see the field again until the last snap of the last game of his senior year?


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The second option would be to [Body]

Output: The second option would be to sear, then rest for 10 minutes to allow heat to dissipate, then place on indirect heat until reaching desired temp, then rest again.


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The rationale for searing [Body]

Output: The rationale for searing right before the meat has hit ideal internal temp is that a good sear happens at 500+ degrees. Which means there is a lot of intense heat raising the interal temperature very quickly but not evenly. If I start my steak at 500 and move to 300 there is going to be more risidual heat on the outer portion of the steak but that heat won't necessarily have moved inside. So you won't get even distribution and if you aren't very careful the outer half of your steak will be well done while the interior is medium rare. If you do the sear at the end of the cook you can pull the meat off the heat which allows you to halt (well at least slow down relatively quickly) the cooking process.


Input: [Date] 1 year 8 weeks ago [Title] I don't think most people [Body]

Output: I don't think most people here are going to begrudge anyone for getting theirs. It's just that in no other sport does a head coach make approximately 30X as much as the most highly compensated player (legitimately compensated). So the head shaking doesn't have as much to do with him making that much but rather making that much in a system where those in charge claim the players are more then adequately "paid" for their 60 hour work week then turn around and dump wheel barrels full of cash in front of AD's, Head Coaches, Assistant Coaches, Recruiters, Trainers, you get the point right? It's not like the conferences are getting the shaft on TV revenue either, they own the damn networks. So this is just another example of how flush with cash athletic departments are and how they have to find excuses to piss away the revenue while they cry about amateurism and how fearful they are that they will corrupt the innocent kids.


Input: [Date] 1 year 14 weeks ago [Title] But why would you think he [Body]

Output: But why would you think he would have a substance abuse problem because he tested positive for pot? I don't smoke the stuff and comments like this make me shake my head. This is 2014 right? If he got caught drinking a beer you wouldn't automatically worry that he was an alcoholic would you?


Input: [Date] 1 year 16 weeks ago [Title] Because I'm sure everything [Body]

Output: Because I'm sure everything you did when you were 20 years old was grounded in logic and reason. . .


Input: [Date] 1 year 18 weeks ago [Title] Opening day 97 we sat in the [Body]

Output: Opening day 97 we sat in the center field bleachers. Grffey flipped us off everytime he took the field, hit a bomb right at us in the middle innings and continued to talk mad shit the rest of the game.


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Title] Bizarre sounds about right to [Body]

Output: Bizarre sounds about right to me. I don't get it at all, you hear nothing out of the kid but his parents seem to be plastering their differences all over the recruiting sites. It's to the point where I'd rather he go to state if that's what he really wants then have his parents force him to choose Michigan.


Input: [Date] 1 year 29 weeks ago [Title] I'm with you 100% on this one [Body]

Output: I'm with you 100% on this one but I'm afraid we are in the minority. I've always argued these same points to people who think a playoff is necessary for college football. The last two teams out are always going to have a beef, look at the NCAA bball tourney. And if we aren't going to have super-conferences, byes, and home field advantage is it really that good of a system for determining a champion? College football is great because of the rivalries and Michigan wouldn't have any sort of postseason history if it weren't for the contrived bowl system - there are too many teams for rivalries to develop organically in a playoff system.


Input: [Date] 1 year 31 weeks ago [Title] Shane was warming up after [Body]

Output: Shane was warming up after the fumble by Gardner was upheld. I re watched this the other day and it seemed like Gardner was O.K. Because he had his headset on.


Input: [Date] 1 year 38 weeks ago [Title] The fans here are becoming [Body]

Output: The fans here are becoming accustomed to winning. They are more tolerant because they don't see a threat either, and with good reason. The little brother meme died on its own last Saturday. Mike Harts reality and this current one aren't the same unfortunately.


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] And just like a high school [Body]

Output: And just like a high school sometimes the readers of this blog feel they are untitled to voice their opinions as loudly as they can with no repercussions. There really is this belief that an open forum provides some free speech right, no matter how harmful that speech might be to the overall product. I think this blog would be better served sometimes with just a comment section after the front page content instead of a dedicated forum which grants every dickhead with an opinion a platform to rabble rabble rabble.


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I didn't like the DB fundamentals this season. From Game 1, it seemed like we were going to be a bump and run team on the corner. But as the season wore on, we would like up in jam coverage, but not get any contact at all. It looked more like "whiff and trail" than bump and run. [Title]

Output: I didn't like the DB

Input: [Date] 30 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Being a CMU grad, Sept 12, 2009 was a great day. Tailgated with college friends and watched CMU beat Sparty. Then we drove home (wife was DD) and watched the Tate Forcier comeback game against ND. Went to the bar to celebrate the victory with friends and watch Spartys cry into their beers. All in all probably drank for 14 hours that day. Hadn't boozed that much since college. But Jan 1 1998 post has to be tops.... [Title]

Input: [Date] 39 weeks 6 days ago [Body] The apology was meant to appease the MSU fan base. From the banner in the sky to the meatheads with letters painted on their chests, its clear that the MSU fan base is Hoke's number 1 fan. Who doesn't want their fans to be happy? [Title]

Output: The apology was meant to


Input: [Date] 39 weeks 6 days ago [Body] So is this press release a summary of what was said between Hoke and Dantonio at center field after the game? They sure had a nice long chat with each other. It's was nauseatingly long and awkward. Say good game and get the fuck out of there, Brady. [Title]

Input: [Date] 40 weeks 20 hours ago [Body] The shovel pass play to Jack Miller was a brilliant play call. No one was expecting that play. He just fell down after Gardner shoveled it to him. Damn natural grass field. That play would have been a touchdown on field turf. [Title]

Output: The shovel pass play to Jack


Input: [Date] 40 weeks 20 hours ago [Body] Holden, Ryan, Ross, et all are the worst line backing unit we've had in the 25 years that I've been following Michigan Football. Couldn't agree with you more about his play this season. I applaud his desire to pump up the team, but where was he when the game was only 14-3 and it looked like our team was waiting to audition as extras in the next Walking Dead episode? Apparently Gardner is the only one who is allowed to/has the ability to pump his teammates up after the game has started. [Title]

Output: Holden, Ryan, Ross, et all


Input: [Date] 40 weeks 20 hours ago [Body] It was pre-Dantonio, but safety Eric Smith ran onto the field after a victory at Notre Dame and planted a huge S flag on ND's turf. Bolden plants a tooth-pick sized stake with no flag and its grounds for WWIII and running up the score. [Title]

Input: [Date] 40 weeks 1 day ago [Body] You ever hear the story of BK's team meeting at CMU when he informed the team that he was leaving? HS teammate of mine played at CMU under Kelly. On the eve of CMU's first bowl game in 12 years, he throws together a hastily arranged team meeting that lasts minutes. He basically told the team he was leaving and ended the meeting shortly by saying "I gotta go, there's another team who is waiting for me" and he leaves. Ask anyone who was at that meeting and they'll confirm he is a scumbag. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] The same people that gave us 97.1 Media sure is loving this story, it made front page news on all the recruiting websites including on Yahoo. Also, it's today's #1 most popular column on freep.com with over 100 verified comments. [Title]

Output: CBS Detroit lol


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] It was Drew Sharp who asked first and also had a follow up. Then it was Jeff Riger with the final question. I think DB has done a pitiful job with this situation, they should've answered the questions yesterday and ended it there. Now with this presser, Sharp got himself another "most popular column" on freep.com. [Title]

Output: Yes


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] But, I would have to agree. He was another kid that grew up a Michigan fan but his coach hated the previous staff. [Title]

Output: I guess its too early to tell since he's still playing


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] Riger just loves to stir up contoversy. He always got Jim Leyland riled up asking dumb questions. I get that its his job to do this but he really makes an ass of himself. [Title]

Output: Riger just loves to stir up


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] Great for argument on Sharp's FreeP column (btw he'll get the most hits and comments) and sports talk radio beating this topic to death. It has been the number one topic on 97.1, Valenti now asking if MSU football has officially surpassed Michigan. Later on, Jamie and Wojo will take calls on... who's the better coach Beilein or Dantonio? [Title]

Output: Great for argument on Sharp's


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] This presser almost felt like RR era part two. The only thing missing was Hoke telling them to be more positive. I hope this staff learned their lesson, no more excuses you either win next season or its over for them. It might also be the end for Brandon... who knows if the new president would be willing to let him pick a new coach. [Title]

Output: You have a point


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] Sharp and Fithian were a disgrace. Signing day presser and they just kept on negging with the Gibbons questions (which Hoke clearly stated that he was not gonna answer). Once again it feels like the Michigan/Detroit media just love to be negative no matter what. You really don't see stuff like this in places like Columbus, Austin, Tallahassee etc... [Title]

Output: Sharp and Fithian were a


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] Everyone felt that way about Hand. Remember this post about his trip to Ann Arbor? http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/hand-settle-burrell-utl2-trip After reading that I was 99.9% sure he was coming here. Sadly something went wrong and we lost him... [Title]

Output: I also like Watson


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] Campbell committed way too early (probably got hyped up on the visit and influenced by Cole) and he's from Florida. I just knew he would want to visit FSU especially after the season they had. Hand, I would agree with. Maybe if we had a 10 win season he's a Wolverine but Saban has sent a lot of top players to the NFL and it seems like that was his biggest goal. Harris decommitted because we fired Borges (his coach and Al were close) but there is still time to win him back and I don't think losing had much of an impact with him. Malik McDowell has always liked MSU. He formed a great relationship with Nardzuzzi and might have committed to them earlier if it wasn't for his parents. We did everything to land the kid, ( I'm sure Mattison and Hoke did their best) but this was a case where the kid did not want to come here. We just have to accept it and move on. Next season is very important. We have to win at least 9 games and must win a big road game. Just win in Columbus fergodsakes... we have not won there since Drew Henson was our QB. [Title]

Output: Campbell committed way too


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] After the season we had, I would say this was a very good class. The only thing missing was a DE and maybe RB. If we had gotten Hand, it would have been an A, now I would give it a B. I think we got spoiled early... [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] From one of the premium message boards. The guy coached gang rapists (Chris Boyd case) at Vanderbilt and now coaches at the school infamous for shielding and enabling a child rapist. I understand negative recruiting happens but in this situation it really makes you wonder. [Title]

Output: insider info


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] Not only that but I honestly believe all this "drama" is fake. The kid has wanted to go there and his parents seem to be really enjoying the attention of the recruiting process. Good luck to him either way. [Title]

Output: He has been all MSU for a while now

Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] A big FU to James Franklin and his negative recruiting aka spreading rumors to Peppers that Michigan may face sanctions and Hoke may be fired for the Gibbons situation. I hope Hoke remembers this when we play them in the fall. [Title]

Output: thank god the kid loves michigan


Input: [Date] 5 hours 54 min ago [Title] Well having one playmaker a [Body]

Output: Well having one playmaker a year isn't such a bad wish. I'm fine with that. I think you could make an argument that finding one a year is actually a "need" to sustain a great offense. I hear your point though my man. I think we forget about Cole from last years class. Here's to hoping he shows those "playmaking" skills a few times his freshman year.


Input: [Date] 1 day 3 hours ago [Title] The thing that excites me is [Body]

Output: The thing that excites me is that we have so many players with a ton of undeveloped potential at nearly every position that this team is a complete mystery. With this coaching staff and their ability to develop talent from that potential (as shown historically), this team has... Well... A lot of potential. I really do think that Michigan is the perfect sleeper team. May struggle early but I expect things to click more and more each game, and it should be fun to watch.


Input: [Date] 2 days 19 hours ago [Title] Yeah, but were you high? [Body]

Output: Yeah, but were you high?


Input: [Date] 2 days 22 hours ago [Title] I understand the whole no [Body]

Output: I understand the whole no spiritual crap, but I do have to make one comment. If you don't believe in Christianity or what it's founded on, that's your deal and that's fine. But your comment tells me you completely misinterpret the reasoning behind the "mission." The act of "converting" someone to Christianity is a completely selfless act of service that is only attempted because of a general care for people; it has everything to do with the belief of what happens to those who don't follow Christianity - an act of love for people. And the "medical missions" are done for people regardless if they convert or not - it is not a requirement to sign on the dotted line seal it with blood in order to receive care. It is an act of service, again because of a care for the well being of others. There are bad apples in every social/spiritual group (even among Michigan fans), so don't assume every Christian or Christian act of service is littered in selfishness. Again, I respect your beliefs or lack of Christian belief, but you don't have to be a Christian to appreciate what Tebow did there in Indonesia. Mods, I apologize for the addition to the "no religion" policy. But I ask if you remove my comment then please remove his as well.

Output: Holy moly you guys. It was already known that he had a conflict with his SAT prep class that might prevent him from coming. That in itself told me he probably wasn't coming because those things don't tend to reschedule themselves because of a recruiting event for one student. The overreaction on this board is strong with this one. It's a freakin BBQ, not like he burned his Michigan gear or cancelled his official visit. Good grief.

Output: How do you know that heaven won't provide an unlimited supply of beer? And heaven beer at that.


Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Title] In my personal opinion, we [Body]

Output: In my personal opinion, we can think what we want to think and judge past performance to come up with an answer, but with this coaching staff it is a completely new ball game. I don't think there's any way to have a clue as to who will start in the fall. Completely new coaching staff. New offensive to learn. And what I'm assuming is a lot more teaching to be had. Any one of these guys could all of a sudden "get it" and end up the starter. Last years performances may have had more to do with the coaching than the talent, and I think we will figure that all out once we see who is on top and how they perform. This is the cop out answer if anyone wants to join me.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 4 days ago [Title] What if it is both [Body]

Output: What if it is both a chupacabra and a hairless coon at the same time? In other words... Chupacabra = Hairless Coon....? The legend of the Chupacabra is actually the legend of the Hairless Coon? Neg me if this is stupid, but I feel like the point is being missed.

Input: [Date] 4 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Even if he doesn't beat out [Body]

Output: Even if he doesn't beat out Rudock, he still had a great shot to play the next season. We do, however, have a lot of potential at the QB position and no doubt do I think we will be good at the position for a long time coming under Harbaugh starting at the latest next season. Whether it's Morris or Gentry or any of the 100 QBs under the roster, one of those guys is going to hit their potential.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Yeah, but then thee whole 30 [Body]

Output: Yeah, but then thee whole 30 commits in a month thing happened, so who knows what's going on anymore.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I personally feel that if [Body]

Output: I personally feel that if anyone has an opinion to make on a player on the board (who isn't paid to contribute) it's probably you mostly because you are a professional evaluator. It's just this attitude on these guys is way too pessimistic in general, and too many assumptions are made off of a star rating. In general I agree with what the ranking systems are for and I'd be an idiot if I said I wouldn't be more excited about a five/four star guy with a buttload of offers over a sleeper that came from nowhere; however, we need to trust Harbaigh on the guys we are recruiting a LITTLE BIT more than we are as a whole at the moment.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Sometimes it feels as if we [Body]

Output: Sometimes it feels as if we believe Harbaugh is a terrible evaluator solely because the guys he picks up are either ranked as a generic two star or unranked. Seriously? One of the guys gets bumped to a three star and we have to assume he isn't even that quality of a recruit? You guys need to start taking anti-depressants or something.

Output: That's quite a lot of Johnson's. Never seen so many Johnson's.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] You wouldn't be referring [Body]

Output: You wouldn't be referring to Jabrill Peppers now would you? I think there was some hints that at least he was going to get some exposure to the offense, and potentially make a "surprise" showing in the Spring game, but that obviously never happened. Based off of the conclusion from this discussion alone, I would be shocked if he didn't get AT LEAST a few reps a game in the offense. Harbaugh is known to not shy away from letting guys play on both sides of the ball, and this is probably the biggest weapon he's ever had with those capabilites. Personally, I believe if you throw Peppers on the offense a decent amount, you can make a capable offense very explosive and exciting in a hurry.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Well apparently Koalas are [Body]

Output: Well apparently Koalas are good for that as well, so you don't necessarily need to get married to enjoy that particular benefit. Although I'm not sure that's a safer option. Tough debate.

Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] This is pretty much what I [Body]

Output: This is pretty much what I was getting to above, which was probably after your post. Literally makes no sense if he changed his mind like his father claims.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I don't understand how you [Body]

Output: I don't understand how you can be that "committed" to a program with seven months to go until signing day when you change your mind the day before you "commit." Good luck to him and everything, but he made the announcement about the announcement prior to him "deciding" to go to Alabama if his father is correct based off that quote. Just makes no sense to me. These are the kind of things that might happen when you are forced to make a decision because it's time sensitive, not something you do seven months prior to your deadline. Color me skeptical, but again, good luck to him whatever he does.

Output: I agree with Cutler. I never really liked him as a player, but that's mostly because I don't understand him. I give him a lot if props for helping out with this camp. I think of all the quarterbacks, he is probably the most random so there must be something to be said for that.

Input: [Date] 6 weeks 1 day ago [Title] There are a few record labels [Body]

Output: There are a few record labels where I tend to like most of the artists signed by them. One of them in particular releases full album playlists for much of the music produced under their label on YouTube, and I have found and purchased a lot of good music because of the free resource that was provided for my use. This would be an effective way for small bands to get their music out there and in turn bring additional profits by being more exposed. YouTube is not the end all be all for me for music, so obviously I still am in need of another outlet to listen to their music via other devices. Because of this, I am more likely to purchase their music. Smaller bands and artists that don't get the radio play need a way for listeners to find them, and there are plenty of "free" tools out there to do that. When you go and rip their music for free, yes you may end up going to a concert some day or buy a shirt another, but you no longer need another means of listening which would reinforce spending money to support them since you already have a physical copy. So while ripping music may in fact help bring money into artists pockets by allowing them to gain more of a following and such, they still have that opportunity with all these other free media outlets available online that don't provide you with an actual physical/digital copy of their music. It would benefit them more if they were discovered using those outlets rather than just having their music "ripped" because there's still the need of purchase.

Output: A few things can be learned. 1) The names of ten quarterbacks attending the camp 2) Jersey numbers of said quarterbacks 3) Stats will be posted on the jumbotron 4) The camp is being held at The Big House 5) There are pods, and apparently more than one 6) There seems to be more than one attendee wearing camo shorts 7) The Aerial Assault QB camp is not a myth That is all I can come up with at the moment.

Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Title] The IMDB of Michigan sports [Body]

Output: The IMDB of Michigan sports statistics and player/coach biographies. There is definitely potential for that, and currently I'm pretty sure WD is the only person out there with the information already in hand. MAKE IT HAPPEN WD. It's your destiny.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Title] But these once again are all [Body]

Output: But these once again are all FINAL RANKINGS. Half of the "two stars" Harbaugh has picked up lately haven't even been partially evaluated. If you recall, Canteen and Brandon Watson had similar rankings a couple years back until they were finally evaluated later on. Canteen turned out to be a solid four star composite and Watson a high three star composite. Wait until these guys get fully evaluated before you crash all over Harbaugh's recruiting strategy. And while I understand that you used the appropriate tools to validate an argument and were a lot less distasteful and much more subtle about it, this collection of thoughts needs to be put aside for down the road as a whole. Way too many people up in arms about the whole thing right now.

Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Trio of Floridians from the [Body]

Output: Trio of Floridians from the same school, two of which were committed to other schools, took the trip to Ann Arbor together. All three at the end of the visit had offers, and the two that were committed two other schools (Metellus being one of them) decommitted the other day from said schools. Therefore, two more to go.

Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Video /= Generic 3* Those of [Body]

Output: Video /= Generic 3* Those of you who are boo hooing over this guy because of his rating need to watch his video, otherwise you're making yourself look kinda dumb... Love this pick-up. I'll be shocked if he doesn't get a large bump based off what I'm hearing from the camp circuit as well as the highlights I just watched. Dude can play.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Title] I thought the common thread [Body]

Output: I thought the common thread with these guys is that they are smart AND athletic. This kinda crap gets said after every three star or lower commits to any major UM sport. Have we not leaned to shut our traps until we see how things trend? These guys will all get heavily scouted now that they've committed to the most talked about coach in the sport. There is no doubt in my mind that there will be a few four stars out of these guys Harbaugh is pulling in from these camps as underrated recruits. We all love the starz; we all understand where you are coming from. Any of us who are saying you unbelievers need to shut it, we aren't saying that starz/more skilled players don't matter. We are just saying that before you believe he's recruiting a MAC team, wait for the final rankings to come out once the class is full and signed. Watch some of these guys get the bumps they are going to get, and then you will all be at much greater ease.

Output: Oh my gosh I'm crying from laughing so hard. Love you WD, but this is one of the best board posts of the year.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Title] OK so I made an idiot [Body]

Output: OK so I made an idiot statement that I questioned prior to posting anyway mostly because of the "RR" QB controversy and the fact that I knew getting most UM fans in a penis measuring contest will never go well. Cousins was not a bad college quarterback. That is the only statement I'm trying to make. If he was bad, he wouldn't have NFL starts to his name THREE YEARS INTO HIS PRO CAREER even if there wasn't much ahead/behind him. Bad quarterbacks also don't get drafted in the fourth round. I'm done talking now. Neg away/Harbaugh.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Title] My point was that he's in the [Body]

Output: My point was that he's in the NFL and is actually playing snaps. There were a few times even I thought of picking him up off waivers for my fantasy team because he was putting up pretty decent numbers while he was starting. If he wasn't a good quarterback, he wouldn't be in the NFL at all. Plenty of good college quarterbacks don't make it/transition to the NFL. He's no worse than Chad Henne at this point, and I don't think we would say that Chad Henne was a bad college quarterback. I just feel that sometimes our homerism gets the best of us at times.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Sounds like the perfect time [Body]

Output: Sounds like the perfect time to cash in...


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Yet Cousins has more NFL reps [Body]

Output: Yet Cousins has more NFL reps in his currently short NFL career than every Michigan QB in the last 20 yrs minus a constantly struggling Henne and, well, Brady. I think Cousins has at least proven himself to be a pretty dang good QB with Cook yet to get his chance. Just to clarify, I dislike State as much as the next UM fan.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I'm assuming that there's [Body]

Output: I'm assuming that there's still the possibility of other grad transfers to enter the fold... correct? Probably a dumb question, but I'd rather look dumb and have the answer than wait for another month for nothing just because I'm an idiot.

Output: I thought it was Koala, but I must be wrong.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 6 days ago [Title] So sorry for your loss, man. [Body]

Output: So sorry for your loss, man. Cancer sucks real hard. Lost an uncle and recently my mother went into remission from breast cancer. You are most definitely not alone in your suffering, and sometimes that is the most reassuring thing when dealing with something like this. There are plenty of mgoblogger's who have dealt with that same tragedy as well as people all around you. God bless you and your family, and my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Input: [Date] 10 weeks 4 days ago [Title] /Poke Poke Poke Poke PokeOne [Body]

Output: /Poke Poke Poke Poke Poke One and dones are still going to be one and dones, but more than likely overseas. I'm not sure why a kid would go to school for a semester just to jump right to the NBA, but there probably would be one or two - It is more likely they just train for a year instead. THEN there will be a buttload of kids that only play one year instead of two or two years instead of three. I'm not sure how that does anything but seriously damage the athletic programs, even if the focus is meant to be on education first. FINALLY, it has been said all over within these discussions that the freshmen would still be participating in practices and scrimmages and more than likely attend games. The NCAA would essentially have to ban all "redshirted" players from attending certain meetings/practices or limit their time schedules dedicated to their athletic progression in order to get some sort of academic benefit out of this. And if they do that, how does that help the kid out if his goal is to play in the NBA? You're limiting the "athlete's" progression and in turn hurting their futures as NBA prospects. This MAY even deter some of them from attending school and push them towards a short-term international career before shooting for the NBA as well; I'm not sure how this helps these kids academically. The kids that want to be in school will be in school, so they don't need a redshirt year if they have the ability to play and still plan to focus on their academics - Not only will you be hurting these kids but the athletic programs that are in need of immediate help. More than likely if the NCAA opens this back up, you will probably see the NBA react within a year or two by allowing players to play right out of high school (ala MLB), which will be silmilar to back in the Kobe/Lebron days where there was a flood of kids headed for the NBA before attending a college course. INSTEAD, the flood will be even greater and create an even larger issue because of the "redshirt" year requirement. These are my thoughts at least.


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Yeah, but not paid for by [Body]

Output: Yeah, but not paid for by their potential future employers. Those are taken out (and paid for) by each individual student athlete themselves.

Output: Are you sure you finished your degree?


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 6 hours ago [Title] These kind of actions [Body]

Output: These kind of actions represent more of the "little brother" persona than the "big brother" persona. If anything we should be doing whatever the heck we want because we are "big brother", and if "little brother" has a problem with it then let them be the ones to change to further disassociate themselves with "big brother."


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I'm 30 and haven't attended a [Body]

Output: I'm 30 and haven't attended a class in like 7 years and I still get those dreams. Difference is now all I have to do is remember that classes are over so I can find immediate relief instead of checking my schedule over and over again just to make sure I have it right for the thousandth time.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 2 days ago [Title] If there's one thing I've [Body]

Output: If there's one thing I've learned in life it's that sometimes it takes the lowest of lows to change lives for the best. Hope he comes out of this situation on top like I've seen happen so many times. Thoughts and prayers are with him.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I'm not a cub (that I know [Body]

Output: I'm not a cub (that I know of), and I don't even know what a cub is other than a child bear or a Chicago Cub. Nevertheless, I will upvote you because apparently anything with "Cub" now must be upvoted.

Input: [Date] 12 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I think I'm going to move on from this one. [Body]

Output: I think I'm going to move on from this one. I hope Frank Clark learns from the situation and makes the best out of the opportunities he has from here on forward.


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I hear what you're saying, [Body]

Output: I hear what you're saying, man. I really think this would have came up regardless of who drafted him and what round he was drafted. I don't think drafting Frank Clark and giving him a chance to play was the problem, but perhaps the interview just seemed off and drew bad press because of what came out of it. Nothing needed to be said in this situation besides "we did our research." Leave it at that. On a side note, didn't I read not too long ago that Frank Clark was speaking in schools about domestic violence?

Output: I think it would help if you went commando.

Output: You don't by chance do offshore fishing much do you? I recently got into buying/selling fishing gear to help pay for my hobby, and I'd love to do some marlin fishing sometime down there. I personally am fascinated by the lure developers from the Islands - some of the best offshore fishing gear from around the world resides there. I sell a ton of my stuff to Maui and the surrounding islands. Looking forward to the day I make that trip!

Input: [Date] 13 weeks 5 days ago [Title] It's not difficult at all for [Body]

Output: It's not difficult at all for most of us, but for some of us it's not quite so simple. It's easy to think logically in your own mind, but for some logic is misconstrued and addictions and psychological differences make it difficult for them to make positive life choices on a consistent basis. You do realize that ONE poor decision resulted in these consequences. One bad day. One terrible decision. There may have been another incident in the past, but this is the choice that resulted in him being dismissed. I may not struggle with a violent past where it is difficult to control my "violent" behaviors, but I do have my own daily battles because of both my encounters and poor past decisions. It doesn't matter what society perceives those battles as in comparison to others struggles, it is still a psychological battle to deal with those struggles and not falter. I imagine it is the same for most of us - we have our evils and things we try to improve upon ourselves every day. Last thing I will say is that the best thing you can do when you do make those big mistakes is not only learn from them but teach others about how to avoid those situations and how to be more aware of those things - if you help prevent one person from making those same mistakes, then you have turned a negative into a positive. I am glad to see that Frank Clark has started this process. End of book.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The only reason I think we [Body]

Output: The only reason I think we wouldn't be is because of last years cluster. Analysts in general don't pay a whole lot of attention to the "injury bugs" and probably would assume a normal projection due to gained experience. I think we will be at the bottom of the top 25 without him and around 10-15 with him in the fold, but my guess is with the lineup that will be put on the floor with him (and a bit of an unknown in Wagner) that we will probably surprise most people. I guess what I'm saying is that I agree with you, but I fully expect this team to be on some analysts final four boards at the end of the season. Again, this is WITH Brown. However, I still think we could breach that status with Williams instead of Brown. I'm going to be super pumped about that kid as well if we snag him instead of Brown. Elite shooter = Beilein magic.

Input: [Date] 15 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Something tells me he is [Body]

Output: Something tells me he is still growing into his body physically, and there's a lot of "expected projection" with this offer. Didn't the same thing happen with Teske who is now a unanimous four star still on the rise? I understand everyone's "freak out" with this pick-up, but 2016 is still a long ways away. This kid could be just on the verge of turning the corner as he's still developing that big body, and we could be extremely pumped about him in a year. I'm doing a wait and see with this guy. Sounds like he's about to blow up, so I'm not too worried yet.

Output: I'm going to go a bit out of most people's league here... Yojimbo/Sanjuro (For which at least part of The Man With No Name trilogy was based off of) - AKIRA KUROSAWA is the man. The Revenge Trilogy - The most well known of the three is Oldboy. Not necessarily a trilogy that has a lot of rewatchability. Of course to appreciate these, you have to not mind reading your movies.

Input: [Date] 19 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I know I shoukd know this [Body]

Output: I know I should know this being that I consider myself a devout fan of basketball, but what happens if the inbounds dude throws a full counter and makes it? I fully believe they would discount it, but it would be more entertaining to allow the basket to count with no time coming off the clock. In fact, go ahead and give them a free shot at it with the consequence being, well... You lose.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The problem is... We [Body]

Output: The problem is... We absolutely have no clue what his ceiling is, so there's no point in debating it. He could end up better than Kovacs (I doubt Kovacs was/will be the best walk-on that ever played football), or he could never play a snap. We just don't know. I know that with Harbaugh's help he is probably more likely to hit his ceiling than with most coaches.

Output: I liked bugs better.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Holy insane depth, Batman. [Body]

Output: Holy insane depth, Batman. First ever for Beilein at Michigan? Yes, believe so. Even in our most recent great years, our good depth was 7/8 strong.. so this heavily trumps that. I really wouldn't be surprised to see some early entry NBA guys next year from this lineup... Potential for Levert, Irvin and Walton. If Irvin plays like he has the last few weeks all season long, there will be some definite chatter with him. Walton was on the board before he got hurt and his play suffered from it. And Dawkins, man... I'm not going to say it wont happen.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Sometimes I wonder how many [Body]

Output: Sometimes I wonder how many of us on this board, especially those that tend to be more critical of others and their mistakes, have littered themselves with poor decisions that they try to hide (expecially from themselves). The truth of the matter is that there isn't one individual on this planet that hasn't made a regrettable mistake in their lives and hasn't faced adversity. David Harrison is doing everything he can to provide for his family and survive, and props to him for learning from his mistakes and trying to better himself with the situation he's currently in. It's easy for us to feel sorry for ourselves and sulk in our adversity and get nowhere. This man is facing it and trying to figure out how he can overcome it in order to support those he's responsible for. In no way is this funny. From someone who has learned from his own past mistakes and thankfully been able to learn from them and in turn been blessed from that wisdom, I seriously hope David figures out how to turn that intelligence of his into something that will help bring him the success and fulfillment he desires. He has obviously matured, and because of that he deserves a shot at fulfillment.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Walton > Spike... when [Body]

Output: Walton > Spike... when healthy. Even when he's not, he still showcases skills that Spike just doesn't have. Spike is a better pure point guard, but we have also learned that Beilein's teams thrive with a skilled athletic point guard. I guess the better way of putting it is that in no way should Spike ever supplant Walton as the starter where Walton is forced to sit on the bench. He was incredible as a developing freshman, and he has the potential to be an NBA draft pick if he's allowed to showcase that development when healthy next year. He was a projected pick this past year until he got hurt, and this is a guy that should only help is status with another year. Walton is going to be phenomenal for us next year, and I can't wait to see the development of this team with a healthy Walton and potential Levert return, not to mention Duncan Robinson and the possibility of getting this overseas kid. We seriously have a chance to be an incredibily special team again next year. And with the projection that Dawkins is currently on, I would not be surprised to see him blow up next year. Like gone to NBA ala Burke/Stauskas blow up. This year's team is fun to watch, but next year's has the potential to be extremely fun.

Output: One who requests their mother-in-law to take the shot is obviously not expecting a monetary return on investment...


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 7 hours ago [Title] I see what you're saying, and [Body]

Output: I see what you're saying, and I agree with a lot of it. However, there are still a lot of kids that want to make their college choice prior to their senior year, and that number seems to continually grow year after year. Some schools just have to be crossed off the list because of the fact that they can't afford to visit (especially with family). I think that the kids who want to see that gameday atmosphere and make those late decisions are still going to do that whether or not they have the opportunity to check out the campus on an official before their senior season. I don't think the timelines for a decision of many recruits will actually change much with earlier official visits, but it will give recruits and their families who want to make those earlier decisions a real good look at the schools they are truly interested in no matter the required distance traveled. Some families have the money to do those things on their own, and some don't.

Input: [Date] 23 weeks 21 hours ago [Title] Just because he doesn't go to [Body]

Output: Just because he doesn't go to school there doesn't mean he can't love the school. I've never stepped foot in Ann Arbor (nor the state of Michigan for that matter), but I would still call myself a diehard. Yes, he's extreme about his diehardism, but just because he didn't attend a UM class doesn't mean he should straight cut down the extremities and became a "normal" UM fan. He can't change who he is, and I'm totally fine with that. It's his life to live not ours.

Output: Yeah, well I enjoy reading WD's story more than yours, so WD wins.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 2 days ago [Title] To your point, I think that [Body]

Output: To your point, I think that if he is successful in the NFL... people will forget their lasting views of him at Michigan. The truth of the matter is that the offensive gameplan did not put him in a position to kill it on the field. Maybe he didn't make the most out of every opportunity, but look at Devin Gardners numbers and tell me Funchess was going to have elite WR numbers even if he did catch every ball. The passing game was terrible, and this wasn't either of the Devin's fault. Coaching, man.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I'm sorry, but Frank Clark [Body]

Output: I'm sorry, but Frank Clark was much better than an "above average athlete." I had no doubts about him getting drafted until that incident. He seemed to me to be another player that underperformed his skills, much like Funchess. I wouldn't have been surprised to see him snagged in the third round prior to what happened, and I fully expect him still to be grabbed by someone, undrafted or not, and make an NFL roster if he can stay out of trouble. Not just make the roster, but play some significant minutes in his career. He has plenty of "can't teach" immeasureables that will do him a lot of good with proper discipline and coaching.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 2 days ago [Title] All I know is there's a lot [Body]

Output: All I know is there's a lot "ifs" with this current team. I do think we are close to turning the corner, but a lot if development needs to be made with a lot of players in order for this team to play for the B1G title next year (with or without Caris). The one thing we know for sure is that a healthy Walton Jr will be am excellent improvement at the PG position, but I think that's the only for sure expectation as far as improvement goes. I do think MAAR and Dawkins will make that leap forward and turn into excellent players, but I'm really curious to see how Chapman and DJ Wilson look next year. I think Chapman will be better than most expect, but Wilson is a complete unknown with him barely playing this year - it may have hurt his projected development. Either way, I think next year will be a fun and exciting team to watch again. I don't expect to pick up any high level recruits being that it looks like we may get one with few options; therefore, I don't expect any real new faces that could instantly impact the team in a positive way. Duncan Robinson should provide excellent shooting, but his complete impact is entirely unknown as well. All that being said, definite improvement next year, but the extent is extremely up in the air. Player development may have never been more inportant given our current youth.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 2 days ago [Title] McGary will play both the 4 [Body]

Output: McGary will play both the 4 and 5. They lost Perkins, so it won't take too much away from him. He's already shown his skills in OKC so they'll find some time for him. Next season will be very interesting. He will probably take more from Collison as he moves toward old man status.

Output: I don't know about you, but when I'm pumped about something going on in my life, I sure as heck don't mind me talking about it if someone asks me to. Getting to speak about one of your ultimate passions in life is something that is hard to turn down. Plus, these guys have a history with each other while he coached the Niners - They know each other. If you listened, even his wife addressed Tim as if she's cooked a meal for him in the past. ...Now that I think about it, this may actually be more about helping Tim get his Podcasts a good headstart (this is the first one he's done) than actually all about Jim himself. Either way, Harbaugh.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I've watched the first 45 [Body]

Output: I've watched the first 45 maybe 8 times and the rest of the film probably just once (maybe twice). The first 45 though... Mesmerizing.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I vote for WD. Let's see what [Body]

Output: I vote for WD. Let's see what the kid can do in the spotlight.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I was just thinking that same [Body]

Output: I was just thinking that same exact thing. Brian----> Sports Media Careers as Harbaugh----> Coaching Careers.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] My favorite Chris Farley [Body]

Output: My favorite Chris Farley movie may in fact be Almost Heroes...


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Oh yeah? Well The Cable Guy [Body]

Output: Oh yeah? Well The Cable Guy is one if my all time favorite comedies.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I'm going to go ahead and [Body]

Output: I'm going to go ahead and guess that if you don't unknowingly like an "artistic" movie then you will some day. "Artistic" isn't a genre and therefore can apply to your interests if within the proper genre of your choice.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I don't know whether to neg [Body]

Output: I don't know whether to neg you or posbang you for your honesty. I have no idea why you don't think it's good, but it is in fact fantastic.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Not joking when I say that I [Body]

Output: Not joking when I say that I loved the heck out of him in Bad Lieutenant:Port of Call New Orleans. He was so jacked up in that movie. Couldn't stop laughing.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Well now I feel obligated to [Body]

Output: Well now I feel obligated to admit that I loved Man of Steel. LOVED I SAID.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 1 hour ago [Title] So here we have people trying [Body]

Output: So here we have people trying to get word across that we shouldn't tweet negative things at recruits, and in response we have people who blog about those feelings instead. Makes sense I guess, but I feel like half the point was missed somehow.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 1 hour ago [Title] I think what makes your [Body]

Output: I think what makes your comment more comical than it should be is the fact that you complained about Jay accidentally misspelling "Adidas" while you purposefully misspelled 1/10 of the words I'm responding to. I realize you're not trying to sell yourself here or anything, but it's still comical.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I'm not here condoning his [Body]

Output: I'm not here condoning his actions or saying the girl deserved it, but as a poster above stated, the girl was out of sorts and approached Mixon looking for an altercation (I believe she was drunk). It is known that she had a history of legal issues, so I say this with the understanding that she was not an innocent party in this incident. I will reiterate from my post above that Mixon was known to have a good background with no prior incidents in his childhood, so this was very out of sorts for him. Again, there is never an excuse to hit a female, especially in the manner that was done in this case, but I fully understand this as something to not expect in the future with him. This isn't a Ray Rice issue where the footage showed the actions of a completely cold-blooded male - there were faults in both parties, and the end result was Mixon going out of control with how he reacted to the female's actions. His suspension and jail time was understood and deserved, but I fully expect him to learn from this situation as everything I read claims him to be a stand out individual with good morality.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Going to be honest with you [Body]

Output: Going to be honest with you guys here... I don't think the mindset with Mixon is similar to that of other guys who have been involved with domestic violence. I live in OKC and I've read most of the articles and heard a lot of perceptions of this situation. I think OU fans are still excited about this kid, and the knowledge of him is that this incident was completely out of the norm for the kid and is not quite so cut and dry as "punch girl in face" sounds. The OK media all got to see the footage of the incident, and it was basically what they expected they would see. There was an article in the Oklahoman this morning with quotes from Stoops about how exited they are to have him back and how good of a kid he is. He does not have a bad background at all, and I will honestly be more shocked if we hear about another negative incident from him (especially to this severity) than if we don't. I completely dislike OU, but I am definitely open to seeing this kid have another chance. One incident should not be the end of a players career.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Half agree half not. The part [Body]

Output: Half agree half not. The part I don't agree to is that Harbaughs staff was on the "loser" end of the recruiting gig. I do think there's a bit if an ego issue with the standard mgoblogger's perspective regarding certain media outlets, and while opinions are voiced quite strongly on this one as well, I definitely think Harbaugh's staff did a great job flipping some guys we had (probably) never even heard of prior to a few weeks ago. We lost out on some guys, but that has to be expected with a minimal timeframe to recruit with a new staff (even with Harbaugh's reputation). OTHER THAN THAT... I hear you, man.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I read the sports page of the [Body]

Output: I read the sports page of the local Oklahoman that is provided to me in the handicap stall I am currently sitting in. Doesn't make me old, but then again if this wasn't a free service I wouldn't be reading... So I guess you're right.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Has anyone's balls turned [Body]

Output: Has anyone's balls turned blue on this fella yet?


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] This is like the complete [Body]

Output: This is like the complete reverse Hoke here. How many recruits do we have in limbo on NSD? 27? Geez... This will be a COMPLETELY NONproductive day tomorrow.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Also could be said that "if [Body]

Output: Also could be said that "if you ain't first... at least you won't end up blown up in the middle of a nursing home." Sometimes "ain't first" isn't as bad as it seems. At least in this context.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] No, we can't. That became [Body]

Output: No, we can't. That became most obvious when Jim Harbaugh became our coach. We haz all the bads. /s (It has become apparent to me that at times I must use this or risk neg-bombs)


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Sir Spicyweiner??? [Body]

Output: Sir Spicyweiner???


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] As someone who's wife is [Body]

Output: As someone who's wife is obsessed with Dance Moms, "the Devil's work" is probably the most accurate summary I've ever read regarding that show.


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 2 hours ago [Title] Do they not have any good [Body]

Output: Do they not have any good freshmen coming in? I think a lot of people thought we would be atrocious a few years where we scrapped together a very good team as well. I completely dislike that school not to mention their coach, but he is still a good coach. All it takes is a few players to step up and make a difference and the outlook could be completely different.


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 3 hours ago [Title] See also: Mitch McGary...? Oh [Body]

Output: See also: Mitch McGary...? Oh wait, he actually figured it out... I know both Donnal and Chatman have only three years of eligibility left and everything, but I think they still have a chance at becoming good if not great players. Beilein has a knack for helping players continually improve. Plus the fact that Chatman started at the beginning of the year kind of gives me the idea that maybe he was showing something prior to the beginning of the season that isn't what we are seeing now. Wait to see what these guys look like next year before you think that Beilein screwed up on those two guys.
