Input: [Date] 29 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I can't believe people are mad about this and think it is dirty for being "deceptive." Other common football things that are deceptive and designed to throw the defense off: Play action Pump fakes Hard counts Fake punts Fake field goals Pretty much any trick play They are all perfectly legal, and if the NFL thought they were too mean, they would eliminate them. New England did something unique that Baltimore wasn't ready for, and that is nobody's fault but Baltimore's. They could have called a timeout, or they could make sure the guys they pay millions to play defense every year can identify eligibility based on formation, especially when there is announcement that someone else is checking in as eligible, which immediately indicates somebody else must not be. [Title]

Output: I can't believe people are


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I have only taken the class once, and thus only have first-hand experience with the professor who taught the class, but the vibe I've gotten is that your experience will be greatly impacted by who's teaching it. (Same holds for EECS 281 if you decided to take it some day) I checked the class listing, and there appear to be 4 secions taught by either Ringenberg, Fu, and DeOrio. I have absolutely no idea who the second two are, but Ringenberg was my professor for ENGIN 101 and also taught other sections of 280 when I had it. (He may have even co-taught it; don't honestly remember) Ringenberg is a good professor who was generally very helpful when you needed it and also does a nice job with his lecture content, but his voice is a little monotone, so if you tend to get bored in lectures, beware of that. Other than that though, I would recommend him without any hesitation if you can swing scheduling his section. Projects, however, tend to be mostly the same except when they blow them up every one in a while, perhaps due to too much cheating. They are pretty managable though as long as you don't totally blow them off (especially the Sorry project, they give you enough time to not have to do it on Spring Break if you don't want to, but you better have done some of it before then if you want that to happen, as that is the most time consuming of the 5 or 6 there are, or at least where when I took it 4 years ago) Too bad for you Noble isn't teaching it next semester. Noble is one of the very best, and I am extremely happy I was able to take the class with him. [Title]

Output: CS Major Here


Input: [Date] 47 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I was okay with the decision to go for it, but I was a,azed at the play call. The clock stops for a change of posession anyway, so if you're going to go for it, you really ought to do a pass play with the option to scramle for it because it offers you a better chance of getting the first down and also burns more time for the play itself in the vent you are not successful. Given that the call was a run right up the middle needing 4 yards in a system not really designed for conservative runs right up the middle, pretty much every other option that didn't involve going for it was better IMHO. [Title]

Output: My $0.02

Input: [Date] 1 year 3 weeks ago [Body] I would send an e-mail, but my current e-mail account has for some reason gone totally foo bar, so I will try asking here. Any chance you could reseed the 2013 ND game? I caught onto these torrent threads late and after going back and finding that one it seems the pool has dried up. Appreciate your work! [Title]

Output: 2013 ND Game


Input: [Date] 1 year 17 weeks ago [Body] Still doesn't change the enormous contributions he's made in every other part of his game, and if you've been watching any of him playing, you'd know too he could easily have a handful of goals by now with some of his chances. He's the kind of guy who's having trouble potting his first goal, but as soon as he gets it, it could give him the confidence edge to start putting a lot of them in. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 19 weeks ago [Body] Yale was the last team in last year and won the national championship. If we had beaten ND in the CCHA Final, last year's champion wouldn't have even meade the tournament. Losing to PSU definitely makes me not feel good about our chances, but then slamming Minnesota does again. We're wildely inconsistent this year, but the nice thing about the tournament is you don't need to be consistent, you just have to be on the upside at the right time. That's how we managed to win it all in 1996 and 1998 but NOT win in 1997. [Title]

Output: Good News if We Make It


Input: [Date] 1 year 22 weeks ago [Body] I go down there and attend something at the convention center around mid to late January every year and I've never had a problem. Especially when you're there for an event at the convention center, most of the people around you aren't from around town anyway and probably aren't OSU crazies. Obviously there is always some risk, but I'd say its pretty low; no more likely to happen than if you drove around any other Big Ten town with Michigan stuff. I think most of the stories that go around come from football games. When I go down there for The Game, I am extra careful, because all the crazies ARE in town at that point and you are going right into the eye of the storm. For that you would want to take every necessary precaution and avoid any unnecessary risk, but for a convention, you'll be fine. [Title]

Output: Don't Worry About It

Input: [Date] 1 year 30 weeks ago [Body] There was rain, sleet, snow, and hail at some point during the game, and all I had was a windbreaker because it was actually not too bad when I left. Spent halftime in the bathroow huddled around a heater with everyone who didn't leave. There were maybe 20,000 left by the end of the game, and I stayed because the game was close, but of course the team didn't come back, given it was 2008, nor did they have the decency to let Northwestern pull away and let me leave. Oh, and literally the first 4-5 buses at CC Little showed up out of service. There were literally about 100-150 people, maybe even more all desperately trying to huddle under the tiny shelter (this was before the fancy ones there are now) and the numbers kept going up because some idiot decided not to make sure all the buses heading to North Campus weren't taking a break at the same time. The truely awful thing is, I initially forgot my ticket and had to go back for it. My roommate hadn't left because he decided he didn't want to deal with it. Should have taken that as a sign, but hey, at least I can say I'm loyal. (But seriously, they should have given everybody their money back who stayed for the whole thing as a sign of gratitude) [Title]

Output: 2008 Northwestern


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Body] He coached a Japanese team that he had also played for and the Japanese national team at the 1980 Olympics. EDIT: I guess that doesn't qualify as now, but I thought it was worth a mention anyway because Mel is awesome. [Title]

Output: Mel Wakabayashi


Input: [Date] 1 year 47 weeks ago [Body] It has generally been to my understanding that Yost wasn't as bad with religion as he was with race. The story I've heard is that he hated Notre Dame because their AD stuck his nose into some thing over rereunning a race at a track meet and he got so mad about it he swore to make sure they never got into the Big Ten when he was previously all for it and it was probably going to happen soon thereafter. Everything he said after that was pretty much gaming public opinion at the time to stick it to ND, but he was totally cool with Catholics or Jews on the team. He definitely wasn't a fan of African Americans though, and that has been well documented. [Title]

Output: Yost and Notre Dame


Input: [Date] 2 years 7 weeks ago [Body] And that's not being a homer. I've been there twice and both times was shocked at what a dump it is. I expected it to live up to its reputation in stadium rankings and what I got was a cynder block. The whole thing is solid concrete, and what few parts aren't concrete are painted grey to match the concrete. Even the routunda was riddled with cracks and off-color patches to the concrete all around it, while the upper bowl looks like it has gotten zero maintenence since it was first put in. Its cracked, chipping, and ugly. By far the worst stadium I've ever seen. This is out of Michigan Stadium, Spartan Stadium, Ross-Ade, Bryant-Denny (not for a game), and Bronco Stadium (also not for a game, loved the smurf turf though) for reference. Haven't been to enough other venues of different sports or the NFL to make a call on any of those, although I will say I liked the Superdome when I went for the Sugar Bowl, and I thought Progressive Field was pretty nice when I went to the Frozen Diamond against Ohio, in terms of non-Michigan, non-Detroit venues I've been to. [Title]

Output: Ohio Stadium


Input: [Date] 2 years 9 weeks ago [Body] So if they joined for just one sport, why are we so sure they're going to get into the CIC? I mean, it would be great if we DID allow them in, but what's stopping us from doing that anyway? The CIC still has Chicago in it, and whether JHU joins the conference for lacrosse or not, they certainly aren't affiliated with another major conference in any way, so they could just let them in anyway. While it is practically speaking all the B1G schools, its not like they couldn't make an exception if they wanted to. Also, if the conference is willing to take on an affiliate member for sports only a handful of schools are sponsoring... WHY THE HELL DID IT TAKE SO LONG TO GET A HOCKEY CONFERENCE!? [Title]

Output: So if they joined for just


Input: [Date] 2 years 10 weeks ago [Body] Wow, what a schedule. Think I need to get season tickets this year instead of going individual. Just hope the team is up to playing it, unlike last year. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 years 12 weeks ago [Body] I was pretty confident I'd get in, although I was a little insecure about my ACT score and decided to take it again just to be safe. I got accepted two days before my new score was released. Talk about a waste of $50 and a Saturday. Applied to MSU and MTU as backups but frankly never figured it'd be a problem anyway. I guess I thought of MSU as the backup, but in reality I likely would have gone to Tech in that case. Also, thanks to the internet, I knew before I got the letter I had gotten in. IIRC, they milked that pretty hard though. They just e-mailed me saying they had decided, then made you go to the website, go to a page, and then click on "View Decision" to find out... Also, totally jealous of your age. You were here at a rediculously good time on the athletics side of things. Hockey team coming off a national title coming in, and them and football getting one a piece while you were in school. HAVE PITY ON THE CLASS OF 2012, but have more on 2011 because that's actually probably worse (assuming 4 years) [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 years 17 weeks ago [Body] I think you can make the case either way, but what I felt ultimately made that a block was the guy make ZERO effort to twist to get to either side of Morgan even though he clearly should have known Morgan was likely going to beat him to that spot. If he shifted at all and hit Morgan more to the side, that's a block or a no-call I think, but the way he proceeded to knowngly crash right into the middle of his chest I think sealed his fate. [Title]

Output: I think you can make the case


Input: [Date] 2 years 17 weeks ago [Body] Thought it was pretty even, although they definitely let an awful lot go. I felt this game was pretty physical. Only truely horrible call was that foul on Burke. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 years 17 weeks ago [Body] Gotta remember the second one. [Title]

Output: Allegidly


Input: [Date] 2 years 18 weeks ago [Body] This season was definitely a failure for which the team deserves criticism for. True enough, the streak was never going to last forever, but we've had less talent than we did this year and won the conference; these guys just couldn't learn to play like a team until they dug themselves into a hole just a little too deep to get out of. Injuries didn't help, but they still should have been good enough to at least be more competitive than they were. BUT, there is a difference between being critical of the team and being a fairweather whiner. Completely ceasing all hockey coverage falls into the latter. That isn't legitimate criticism, it's completely turning your back on the team because they aren't living up to their collective draft statuses, and I think it is unbecoming of the largest Michigan sports blog, and particularly one that regularly covers hockey. The fact Brian came out and said he wasn't covering hockey because he was mad at how they were doing is even sadder. I can understand being less motivated to keep up given the cisrumstances, but just admitting you're rage quitting and mad you bought season tickets is pathetic. [Title]

Output: This season was definitely a


Input: [Date] 2 years 33 weeks ago [Body] But there's getting a break or two to fall your way and then there's the crap ND and OSU have gotten away with this year. Ohio I don't know got an excessive about of luck; only the MSU fumble really stands out to me. ND, however, has gotten every break and every call. They barely beat a terrible Purdue team, they only beat us by a TD even though we gave them 6 turnovers, they needed two gifts from the officials to beat Stanford and Pitt, and they managed to get USC one week after their starting quarterback went down with a shoulder injury. That is more than luck, that is backing into a title game, but I guess that's okay because you need a lot more than luck to beat Alabama. [Title]

Output: True


Input: [Date] 2 years 36 weeks ago [Body] That would be excellent. Do you have any more specific instruction to that site though? I'm looking at a map right now and I'm not seeing anything on sattelite that looks like what you're talking about near there. Searching for the location only yields two results that are on the other side of town. EDIT: Think I found it. http://www.columbus.k12.oh.us/specialolympics/ Google Maps search gave me the state-wide HQ which is across town. A general search turned up that, which is right where you mentioned and a VERY good parking location for $10. Very much appreciate the advice. Given your word on the people running it and the fact it is off to the side enough to be out of the way of passer-bys on the way to the stadium, that looks to be perfect and I will definitely go there. Thanks! [Title]

Output: That would be excellent. Do


Input: [Date] 2 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Should have taken the tickets. If going to the game means I have to wait until we win at the end to stand up and cheer, so be it, it is worth it to attend. [Title]

Output: Nope


Input: [Date] 2 years 37 weeks ago [Body] Notre Dame fans are unbareable enough when they aren't winning national championships and trash talk like they do. If they actually DO get another one then it is going to be that much worse and I don't want to deal with that. Also, this year in paticular, because I feel they are grossly overrated. Yes, I know, it is difficult to say that about a team that is undefeated, but they've had more than a championship team's worth of lucky breaks this year. It took a 2-minute drive to beat Purdue, a team we now know to be exceptionally bad. We dominated their offense and lost because Denard had the worst game of his career, and we frankly moved the ball at will when we weren't turning it over. They beat Stanford on an absolutely bogus goal line call. They beat Pitt because they were not flagged for having two guys with the same number on the field. They did, to their credit, beat Oklahoma. That game was not a fluke, they showed up ready to play and they beat them. That, however, is the only quality opponent they've beaten this year without help from the other team beating themselves or help from the officials. They are a good team, good enough for 9 or 10 wins, but they have gotten quite a few breaks to be able to call themselves undefeated and I doubt that is going to cut it if/when they play in the NCG. To be clear, too, there are a lot of title teams that survive a game on a lucky break. I'm not saying that should preclude you from being deserving of a title, merely that ND has had more than one, and a couple of them have been poor officiating (although not as bad as Colorodo's 5th down; that one deserves an asterisk next to their title). [Title]

Output: Because

Output: If Walton is healthy enough to play you bring him off the bench to spell Spike and Maar. It could be a big help just getting those two a couple of extra minutes of rest. Wisconsin is also vulnerable to dribble penatration and Walton brings more of that to the game than Spike. But I don't think it is realistic to expect Walton to play more than 10-12 minutes off the bench in this game.

Their is a difference between calling someone out for a bad idea wich is fair game justr like Ace did and being a jerk Brian is being a jerk in this. Brian of bringing down Dave Brandon fame is "joking " about ruining peoples careers if they support a idea he doesn't like.

I know he played exceptionally there last season considering he was a true freshman and undersized, but if Newsome or LTT really come on next year, the best line may have Cole on the interior with more tackle sized players outside.

Input: [Date] 3 days 20 hours ago [Body] My reading of the situation is the kid went and tried to hide it. He didn't tell the coaches he was going and told reporters not to let the info out. Similar to Pharaoh Brown visiting Oregon a few years ago without telling Hoke. I see nothing wrong with pulling a scholarship because of that, the commitment is a 2 way street. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 16 hours ago [Body] I think it's an 11 year deal with a 4 year option Michigan can exercise if they like. I've seen the 4 year option in a couple places and it seems that's the only way the 169 number makes sense when it's about 10 million per year. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Body] For anyone who wants to make the best burger you've ever had at home, I suggest trying out a sous vide burger. Great guide on how to make it here and you don't need any special equipment to make it. Just a cooler, a zip lock bag, a thermometer and a really hot surface to sear it on(like a cast iron pan). You get a burger cooked all the way through exactly the temp you want it, a nice charred outside, and it's easy to make a lot the same temp without over cooking or constantly watching the grill.

Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Body] After the word "would", using "of" makes no sense. And what I don't get about Cook being projected as a 1st round pick is the fact that he has a 58% completion percentage, which definitely won't cut it in the NFL. I don't see how he's NFL starter material, at least not for a few years which would make him at 2nd or 3rd round pick up. [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Body] I don't think it will be losing, but just look at SF where Smith was doing fine and he gets replaced by Kaepernick after going down with an injury for a game. Not saying it's going to happen, just that I wouldn't be surprised if someone overtakes Rudock during the season and starts. Unlikely for MSU, but the next few games would be a great time to get a new QB good experience. Ruddock can't be the future since he's only got a year, so if someone else is equal to him, it makes more sense to start them. [Title]

Output: I don't think it will be

Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Body] The drop in INTs from 13 to 5 is a really nice improvement. He won't be a QB picking apart defenses and winning games on his own, but he should take care of the ball, and be as good as the OL and running game allows him to be. My biggest concern on offense is the WRs without any real threats. [Title]

Input: [Date] 5 days 17 hours ago [Body] one of the "farm trucks" was an '82 Chevy LUV truck. Starting when I hit 14 or so, my Dad used to bring it to our back door every night and ask me to go park it up in the barn for him. I'd usually be gone for about a half hour, since there were 600 acres available for joyriding. It had a 5 speed and a 1.8 liter Isuzu diesel engine. Went from 0-60...eventually. And I hope to buy another some day. Literally, one day it got out run by a Deere. It was THAT slow [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 week 4 days ago [Body] people my age and older like to bitch about how stupid kids are these days. How selfish Milennials are etc etc, and yet those same people dont support schools while in city after city there is at least one shiny (relatively) new sports arena built on the backs of taxpayers at the request of billionaires. Of course they're stupid, you closed their schools and took their (likely outdated) books! (just kidding kiddos, dont get upset, im working towards a greater good here) Seriously, people have to wonder about this kind of crap? How is this possible? Why do we let our politicians be bought and sold by corporations like chattel? Everyone says the system is broken, yet no one seems to ever be able to do anything about it. If anyones got any ideas, Im all ears. We cant just let this country get run into the ground. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Body] because I had a '92 Cavalier in the very same color. Bought it used, and they had the typical GM rotting floorboard allows water to seep in issue, so when I got that car (It had been parked for about a year) there was moss growing on the INSIDE of the windows because with the moisture and the heat of the summer the car had basoically truned into a terrarium. Oh yeah, it also had an aluminum head. The problem with the aluminum heads was that if they'd get too hot, they'd warp, and not even replacing the head gasket would help. I remember being stuck in traffic in that POS, watching the temperature gauge climb towards the ionosphere, and turning the heat on even though it was 95 degrees outside to try and keep it running long enough to escape whatever traffic jam I was in and put more coolant in. When I took it to the junkyard, I asked if I could push the crusher button on it, but insurance and safety and blah blah blah [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Body] was my first favorite Wolverine. My best friend in Elementary school (in Ohio) was also a U of M fan, and he had one of the old Champion M jerseys that had "MICHIGAN" emblazoned across the front, but otherwise looked just like game day jerseys (survivors of the 80's you may remember these). He had #23 because he loved Jamie Morris (didnt' everyone?) I wanted one of those jerseys so, so badly. Living in Ohio made them pretty tough to come by. At Christmas that year, my Aunt and Uncle tried to get one for me, but they weren't willing to drive to AA from Sterling Heights to get one, so I got my very first piece of licensed M gear, a sweatshirt with the seal. Finally, the next summer, we spent a week up at Sleeping Bear, Mackinac, Charlevoix, Torch Lake etc, and on the way back to Grandma's in Royal Oak we stopped in AA at Moe's. I ended up with Gerald White's #22, which was fine by me, because back then I played fullback in Pop Warner. Cool story bro [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Body] price- 1600 tax (8%) - 128 dealer "documentation" fee- $175 (they showed it to me the previous day) title/plates - $42.50 Total- $1945.50 So when I offered $1800 "out the door" I was not offering more than the advertised price. Also, keep in mind this was a car I determined the day before was worth $2k to me, so I wasn't trying to negotiate for every last dime. At the time it seemed about the best I'd be able to do for the money I wanted to spend and actually get to keep some of my planned budget in the bank long enough to pay other bills with, so I was ok with that [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Body] the first day I went to look the sticker said $2500, and their first offer was 3k including title and fees and tax and whatnot. After checking the carfax and talking to the mechanic who filed 32 service records, I told them I could go to 2k total. They came back at $2500 and we parted ways for the day. Next day, I was still thinking about the car and went back on their website. i was considering calling the dealer back and upping my offer to $2200. On the website, I noticed that the price had dropped overnight from $2500 to $1600. I called the dealer and verified it was the same car. And he says "now we can do the 2k you offered, out the door. do you want it now?" I said sure, but Ill only pay $1800, I had to spend some money last night on Thomas the Tank Engine playsets. Dude paused for a minute, probably annoyed that I was still chipping away at him, but I got it (also, it WAS month end, definitely helped. Im no wizard, nor do I claim to be) [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Body] For most of my life Ive driven "beaters" (for lack of a better term). What I mean is a car I buy outright that might need a wrench turned here or an alternator swapped there, keep them for a couple years and repeat. Recently, I sold the only vehicle I ever had a payment on, a 2003 F-150, that had been paid off for close to 5 yrs (bought it used. Never buy new!) Anyhow, Im scanning Craigslist and Auto trader and the local fishwrap classifieds and here is a piece of advice you may or may not want to incorporate into your own search. I found I had more luck dealing with a dealer than a private seller. On the face this seems odd, as dealers would upsell their mothers if they're given the chance, but let me explain my reasoning. I had 2 main reasons for this (and if things hadnt worked, I wouldve tried another dealer, or gone back to the drawing board). This isnt meant to be gosepl set in stone, more "suggestive". First thing- most dealers just turn and sell the vehicles they take in on trade (especially if theyre over 100k on the odometer) to a wholesaler or auction and make a couple hundred a unit and dont deal with whatever problems they might have. However, there are some dealers out there (you can find them) that will keep a select few of their traded in vehicles and sell them off of their lot. Generally these are the "better" trades that either have a higher resale, or are in pretty good shape. For the most part, if a dealer thinks the car might be a lemon that could end up in negative press they'll jettison it, but if they think its decent enough (from a low price high mileage car perspective), they will keep it and try to see if they can make a grand or so. Lots of times you'll get a free carfax too. The second reason you may want to see what a dealer has on the wholesale lot is because instead of having to bum a ride of a friend or realtive to go look at a car 20 minutes away only to find out the reason there was no picture of the right rear quarter panel in the ad was because there was no right rear quarter panel, and having wasted all that time, you can go to one place and see 5-10 cars all at once and increase your odds of finding something decent before youre friends start ducking your calls. Now, the dealer is going to try and make a few hundy off you, and they may say they cant deal with you too much because their margins are already slim, but you can still make an offer. I find the "Ill give you xxx, out the door, including tax title and plates" the best angle. It helps make their silly dealer fees vanish in a hurry. 3 weeks ago, I did exactly this after selling my truck, and I ended up with a 2003 Taurus with 117k on the clock. The car is as loaded as Taurus' got in 2003, and I paid $1800 for it, from a dealer, who had the price listed as $2500. So, do with this info whatever you like. Merely relaying whats worked for me in the past [Title]

Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] Michigan fans why do you wish to play the waiting game!!! The team has some of the most talent in the country and if you honestly think that Michigan is losing due to lack of talent or system then you are an idiot. There are no excuses to ever have a losing record with this team. Michigan is a team that should compete for the B10 title every year and those of you who are making excuses for the coaching staff need to stop being so ignorant. Changes can be a good thing and in Michigan's case, change would be fantastic for the coaching staff. [Title]

Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] I love Michigan and no matter the record I will watch every game and watch it passionately. Every week it is just harder for me to support Rich Rod. I spend so much time and money into Michigan football and so do many others. That is why it hurts so much to see them play like this. If Rodriguez does stay I will support him and devote my time and money for the team, but I still think some changes are necessary in the staff. [Title]

Output: I love Michigan and no matter


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] I am not saying Rich Rod should be fired for sure. But, if the team looks as bad as it has in the past 3 weeks for the rest of the season, I might say it is time for Rod to go. I believe there are several coaches who could take this exact roster and make them a top 15 team. I really hope Michigan improves but everytime I get my hopes up they seem to get crushed every Saturday. [Title]

Output: I am not saying Rich Rod


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] I know people hate it when someone says anything they don't like about their beloved team. I did not come on here to make people mad I just want to figure out what fans like me are thinking about the team this year and what they think should be done if anything, because in my opinion what is being done isn't working and Michigan needs to look in another direction. But when I make a post I don't want people to call me an idiot just because I am saying bad things. I want people to explain to me why I am wrong and why I should look forward to watching games. [Title]

Output: I know people hate it when


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] I hope it does get better. I am not hoping for Rodriguez to fail at Michigan. I want Michigan to win games they should and in the games they lose they should deserve to lose while not beating themselves. Rodriguez has proven he can win at West Virginia, but in year two he has always shown great improvement with his teams. Michigan is improved on offense for sure, but defense has been awful and is getting worse. I hope Michigan wins out and wins a bowl game, but if they don't I just don't want to hear the same excuses that I had been preaching when I believed in Rich. [Title]

Output: I hope it does get better. I

Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] I am not saying in one practice a problem will be fixed. I am saying that after 3 weeks the defenses problems are getting worse and in no way better. Are you actually thinking the coaching staff is doing a good job with the defense lately? The players aren't idiots they want to play well and it is the coaches jobs to teach them technique and execution. I think the coaches are working on tackling and staying home in practice, but however they are doing it the players don't seem to be getting any better. I have a question for you. What in your opinion needs to change for Michigan to win these next two games, and to win in the future after this season. [Title]

Output: I am not saying in one


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] Agreed...I am tired of people making excuses for this team. It is not lack of talent. Michigan recruits well every year and when people say Michigan fans have no right to think they are better than any other is a little strange to me. The actual fans aren't better than other fans, but the Michigan football team should be one of the better teams in college football every year, and not the worst in the big 11 two years in a row. [Title]

Output: Agreed...I am tired of people


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] Offense did look better this week for sure but you act like its ok for the defense to suck and that Rich has nothing to do with that. He is the HEAD coach and I know Robinson is to be blamed for the large part of the defensive struggles, but Rodriguez has to be blamed as well. The team was winning both of these games at halftime yes, but in second half situation football Michigan has been awful lately. People are out of position, giving up big plays, and missing tackles. These are things they should be stressing in practices and they obviously aren't doing a good job. They made no adjustments of defense and they got burned bad in 3 straight games. My friend literally puked during the Illinois game because he couldn't believe lack of execution. [Title]

Output: Offense did look better this


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] I will always be faithful to Michigan but when I see great athletes and a great program pour so much money into their athletics and coaching and get beaten so badly, I want to think things will get better but they haven't and the team is looking worse especially on D.

Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] So are all of you guys telling me that any coach that Michigan had hired would bring in a new system and have this little of success. What homework haven't I done? What don't I understand? I supported Rich Rod this whole time until now. How is it acceptable for a team to look so unprepared for three weeks in a row? I understand every great program goes through a tough time once in a while, but this roster has proven they can perform well...they just haven't consistently which is a form of poor coaching. [Title]

Output: So are all of you guys


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Body] Michigan football took a beating last year and many of the loyal fans stayed patient and understood that Rich Rodriguez was in a tough situation with no quarterback. Well, now ten games into his second season a Rich Rodriguez coached Michigan team looks lost and poorly coached for the third game in a row. Rodriguez's excuses are running out and the majority of the fans in Ann Arbor are getting impatient. If Michigan fans liked to play the waiting game and wait for their team to be great again, then Rich Rod is their man. But, the Michigan faithful never want to wait, they want to win now and when they don't there are never good enough excuses. I have supported Rich Rod ever since he was hired until today. I have never been so disgusted watching Michigan games in my entire life and the pain that the greatest fans in the world have been going through must stop now. If Michigan can win their next two games I believe Rich Rod deserves at least one more year to show the world what he can do. If Michigan loses their last two games and does not make a bowl game, I can't see any other way than to let Rodriguez go. There are no excuses for taking the winningest program in CFB history with some of the most talent in the country, and then turning it into the laughing stock of a mediocre Big 10. Michigan fans deserve better than anything less than a championship contender. Rich Rods time is running out and unless the team can end the season in spectacular form, he should be gone. Many do not support the hiring of a new coach right now, but I feel that there are several qualified coaches who can bring this exact roster to a top 15 ranking. Michigan will always have talented players and they deserve a talented coach to lead those players to a bright future. Many fans are looking at successful and current head coaches to come in such as Chris Peterson of Boise State, Brian Kelly of Cincinnati, or Gary Patterson of TCU. These coaches could very well be the future of Michigan football, but I feel that the best choice for head coach would be Kirby Smart, defensive Coordinator from Alabama. Smart is a former Georgia Bulldog defensive back and has worked with Nick Saban for years, including in the NFL. Every position Smart has coached has been nothing short of spectacular and I feel that he would turn Michigan and their defense into a winner right away. Smart is only 33, but as Josh Mcdaniels is proving in Denver, age is overrated and studying under Nick Saban is a plus for becoming a head coach. I feel Smart would turn next years Michigan roster into an immediate winner and he could turn the program into one of the most respected again. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 days 15 hours ago [Title] Is Cole for sure staying at [Body]

Output: Is Cole for sure staying at LT considering his height? I know he played exceptionally there last season considering he was a true freshman and undersized, but if Newsome or LTT really come on next year, the best line may have Cole on the interior with more tackle sized players outside.


Input: [Date] 3 days 20 hours ago [Title] My reading of the situation [Body]

Output: My reading of the situation is the kid went and tried to hide it. He didn't tell the coaches he was going and told reporters not to let the info out. Similar to Pharaoh Brown visiting Oregon a few years ago without telling Hoke. I see nothing wrong with pulling a scholarship because of that, the commitment is a 2 way street.


Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Title] Not sure why he couldn't stay [Body]

Output: Not sure why he couldn't stay on to graduate from Michigan then do the 5th year transfer without sitting out. Get the Michigan degree and another year of football if he thinks he's healthy enough.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 16 hours ago [Title] I think it's an 11 year deal [Body]

Output: I think it's an 11 year deal with a 4 year option Michigan can exercise if they like. I've seen the 4 year option in a couple places and it seems that's the only way the 169 number makes sense when it's about 10 million per year.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Title] For anyone who wants to make [Body]

Output: For anyone who wants to make the best burger you've ever had at home, I suggest trying out a sous vide burger. Great guide on how to make it here and you don't need any special equipment to make it. Just a cooler, a zip lock bag, a thermometer and a really hot surface to sear it on(like a cast iron pan). You get a burger cooked all the way through exactly the temp you want it, a nice charred outside, and it's easy to make a lot the same temp without over cooking or constantly watching the grill.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Because it's not that good? [Body]

Output: Because it's not that good? Sure their burgers are greasy but the just don't have much flavor.

Output: One of my favorite lines from The Wire, and very true.

Output: Looks like you may be right.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 3 days ago [Title] What has Morris done to even [Body]

Output: What has Morris done to even earn being called an okay QB? For someone whose biggest asset is his arm, any time he has tried to throw more than 10 yards down field the pass is either an interception or nearly an interception.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 3 days ago [Title] The rule that doesn't exist? [Body]

Output: The rule that doesn't exist? It isn't actually a rule, similar to the idea of not ending a sentence with a preposition. http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/can-i-start-a-sentenc... http://grammarist.com/grammar/conjunctions-to-start-sentences/ The would of, could of, should of crap is really annoying, completely incorrect, and immediately makes me think of the writer as uneducated.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] After the word "would", using [Body]

Output: After the word "would", using "of" makes no sense. And what I don't get about Cook being projected as a 1st round pick is the fact that he has a 58% completion percentage, which definitely won't cut it in the NFL. I don't see how he's NFL starter material, at least not for a few years which would make him at 2nd or 3rd round pick up.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Not saying it will happen, [Body]

Output: Not saying it will happen, but Harbaugh has shown a willingness to switch QBs midseason and if he feels they provide an equal chance to win this year, he could switch Ruddock for Gentry or Morris.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] So how long until the [Body]

Output: So how long until the boosters get to this guy and pay hush money?


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I'm hoping the biggest [Body]

Output: I'm hoping the biggest improvement is the OL for Rudock. Iowa's OL was not good, if Drevno can get them to be above average the YPA should go up without any improvement from Rudock.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I don't think it will be [Body]

Output: I don't think it will be losing, but just look at SF where Smith was doing fine and he gets replaced by Kaepernick after going down with an injury for a game. Not saying it's going to happen, just that I wouldn't be surprised if someone overtakes Rudock during the season and starts. Unlikely for MSU, but the next few games would be a great time to get a new QB good experience. Ruddock can't be the future since he's only got a year, so if someone else is equal to him, it makes more sense to start them.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The OL at Iowa was bad, [Body]

Output: The OL at Iowa was bad, similar to 2013 Michigan with 2 NFL players and others not very good at all. Which makes it all the more impressive.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Could definitely see him [Body]

Output: Could definitely see him losing the job midyear if Harbaugh thinks Gentry or Morris is the future.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The drop in INTs from 13 to 5 [Body]

Output: The drop in INTs from 13 to 5 is a really nice improvement. He won't be a QB picking apart defenses and winning games on his own, but he should take care of the ball, and be as good as the OL and running game allows him to be. My biggest concern on offense is the WRs without any real threats.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Title] The Xavier Kelly recruitment [Body]

Output: The Xavier Kelly recruitment seems wierd. The three schools with crystal balls, Nebraska, MSU, and Oklahoma were all left off his top 8. Then since he released that list every pick has been Alabama. Is there actually news that he favors Alabama or is everyone just picking them because they are a good bet after suddenly showing up on the top 8?


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 1 day ago [Title] That's my hope for him, a [Body]

Output: That's my hope for him, a Stevie Brown type role.

Output: Any reason her sister didn't follow her to Michigan?


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Interesting, I thought MSU [Body]

Output: Interesting, I thought MSU and Nebraska were the major competition and they aren't on there. Unfortunately he just got a ton of people picking Alabama for him on 247 so that doesn't bode well.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Every major newspaper puts [Body]

Output: Every major newspaper puts unflattering stories below the fold or buried a few pages in. And it wouldn't be the first time that this blog has bumped an unpleasant story down with pictures of Denard or something.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Because the 247 composite [Body]

Output: Because the 247 composite rankings basically do all that, so it's repetetive. The major feature was averaging out all the sites to find a composite ranking instead of having to look at rivals, espn, scout, and 247. Might be nice to have a simpler version that just lists the recruits brought in from around the conference, kind of a B1G recruiting roundup once a month or so.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Our alumni do have more [Body]

Output: Our alumni do have more money, they also have better things to do with their lives than slip Benjamins to 19 year olds for playing football.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 4 days ago [Title] He's saying we heard the same [Body]

Output: He's saying we heard the same about Auburn as Michigan, not as OSU.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 6 days ago [Title] The scary lack of speed on [Body]

Output: The scary lack of speed on offense makes me hope we see some of our secondary players deployed as WRs on a few plays a game.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Realize that a lot of coaches [Body]

Output: Realize that a lot of coaches when they meet their wives are not raking in 6 figures. In their 20s, these guys are QC coaches or grad assistants. Or they are coaching at the HS level. They are lucky to be making 75k at that point. It's not until they reach the position coach at a power 5 school level that they break into 6 figures.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 10 hours ago [Title] Isn't that the same thing [Body]

Output: Isn't that the same thing Harbaugh is doing?

Input: [Date] 7 years 3 days ago [Body] Stanford is still trying to pay everyone back for The Band Play. And nobody should make fun of the Ballroom Dancing. Or the Men's Glee Club. M has the best. Bar none. And let's hear a cheer for a school that can make a kick butt solar car in a state that gets about 90 days of sun a year! THAT'S what I'm talkin' about! [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 years 3 days ago [Body] 200 words? Aww man. Is this graded on a curve? Actually, I think "diaries" should be just that. I think a breakdown of the game is great, but so is a breakdown of the tailgate, or some past stories of great days of M-dom. I agree that smack probably belongs on the message board. To a point. I have respect for other schools and their traditions and fan bases, but I don't think it can be expected to show "Big Love" to Sparty or Bucknut Nation. But I don't think there's much point in "You suck," "No, YOU suck" postings. [Title]

Output: 200 words? Aww man. Is this


Input: [Date] 7 years 4 days ago [Body] I like Inge, I'm just stunned that Pudge went. Shouldn't be. Anybody is fair game at trade time. I think more than anything they could use a shrink for the relievers and get their heads on right. Overall the underperformance of this group is frustrating. But they're still our team. Always have been. Always will be. :) [Title]

Output: I like Inge, I'm just stunned


Input: [Date] 7 years 4 days ago [Body] Does it give a little more credence to what Calvin said about his chances of becoming the head coach there given the tone of the athletic program? Hmmm. I'm just sayin' [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 years 1 week ago [Body] Yeah, Rich Rod never did the late night stuff here on MSN after the game. Mountaineer Magazine was always something a few days later. I think it's too bad. Anyone who grew up on Michigan Replay will feel a little lost for a while. If I were a local station I'd have some kind of highlights program and insert it there assuming the rules allowed it. I'm really not sure how it goes with Michigan. I know where I live any station could turn a special out any day of the week on WVU because I've seen it time and time again. It's not just the "offifial station" of WVU that does specials. So maybe someone could chime in with a Sunday morning highlights show with some guest analysis. Surely there are two local Michigan Men who could partner with a Bernie or Don Shane and do a 30 min recap to feed the need on Sunday morning. Then again I guess in the age of DVRs and such, they figure Thursday is as good as any. Thursday M football show? Against. Sunday M Replay? For. [Title]

Output: Yeah, Rich Rod never did the


Input: [Date] 7 years 1 week ago [Body] We should borrow Woody's phrasing and just call it: That school down south and leave it at that. Except for the fact that ND is also down south. Hmm. Or we could adopt the election year strategy and just refer to them as "our opponents." I vote for Braylon's take. Why should we refer to them? [Title]

Output: We should borrow Woody's


Input: [Date] 7 years 1 week ago [Body] Yes and no. If the military HAD been allowing guys to come out & play that's one thing, but otherwise it's just a bad pick by the Lions. They should have known the guy would have a job that he was liable for. I think of Roger Staubach. From the Wiki article on him: "He was a 10th round draft pick in the 1964 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys, but due to his military commitment, did not begin playing until 1969 as a 27 year old rookie. He was also draftd by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 10th round of AFL draft. After graduating from the Naval Academy, Staubach could have requested an assignment in the States but he chose to volunteer for a one-year tour of duty in Vietnam where he served as a supply officer for the United States Navy until 1967. He spent the rest of his Naval career in the United States, playing football on various Naval service teams to prepare for his future career in the NFL." So - draw from that what you will I'm sure he's everything we need from our military leaders. You don't get into that place without being the top of the crop. But it just seems that the precedent has been set way back. [Title]

Output: Yes and no. If the

Input: [Date] 7 years 1 week ago [Body] No but the couch burning friends a bit farther southeast of C-bus did dump trash cans on "The U" one game as they were coming out of their "Away" tunnel. Nearly started a brawl. Classy? No. Funny. Sorta mainly because everyone hates on "The U." The whole soccer Hooligan deal is pretty stupid. There's making noise. There's intimidating the other team with cheers and chants. There's spending hours on a blog page writing about your favorite team. And then there's the dumbasses who show up specifically to fight and either hurt someone or get hurt. This ain't Fight Club. I can find a way to "be alive" without having to roll with someone from the other teams so-called fans. That's just stupid. [Title]

Output: No but the couch burning


Input: [Date] 7 years 1 week ago [Body] Word. If I WAS a betting man I think if M has ANY kind of a kicking game and they don't fumble the ball 20 times they'll pull it off. The emotions of the team will reach new levels because they have something to PROVE. There are still a lot of guys who lost to App St. on the team and they don't want to have their images all over for weeks on end being seen losing an opener to Utah no matter how good the Utes are.

Input: [Date] 7 years 2 weeks ago [Body] Well, if anything if you look at it, it should be a swipe at the ethics of Alabama since both guys were courted there. And from what I have read from Brian in months gone by, Bama seems to sort of make up the rules as they go on rosters and nubmers of slots open, etc. A wee bit shady there. BTW, both guys also come from the same county in WBGVa if you can believe that. RR has had his share of "bad eggs" but he has been known to give those kids another shot much like Tressel. Sometimes that rubs people wrong... special treatment for athletes, etc. Hopefully he won't have the kind of kids who get in trouble but they ARE kids. Kids = trouble. I've heard his side of the story enough to know that calling him unethical really depends on what state you live in. I think his original statement should suffice: It's America and he wanted to change jobs. The rest is just pissing matches. [Title]

Output: Well, if anything if you look


Input: [Date] 7 years 2 weeks ago [Body] You're right about the returns, but they hold a certain number of single-game tickets for fans like me who could never do the season ticket thing anyhow.

Output: You're right about the


Input: [Date] 7 years 2 weeks ago [Body] Well, living here in WBGVa I have heard SO MUCH of this argument that it's amazing. There was quite a bit of head scratching though over Stewart even though his team just whupped OU. I think a lot of folks thought the Stewart hire was based on emotion. He certainly was cheaper. He fits the mold they want of a home town, home spun, aw shucks kinda guy - PLUS he didn't have a big time agent that would cost them a lot of money. He took quite a pay cut from what RR was making. He seems to be a really nice guy, but he will not have as much leeway in the losing department with fans. They will demand that another "big name" coach be hired because in their minds they have "arrived" with the Michigans, Ohio States and Oklahomas. We shall see. I think the scoring against OU gets credited to Calvin. Stewart was pretty much the cheerleader/motivator and there to manage the clock and decide on overall strategy, etc. [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 years 2 weeks ago [Body] All of the Barwis buzz - talking about all of the NFL players or NFL players in waiting coming to work out with him... once the NCAA starts getting a whiff of that kind of P.R., they'll come up with some dumb rule to make that illegal. Schools could then use it as a "recruiting tool." You know, like they did with the rule about Media Guides. Yeah - kids are gonna come to your school because of your Media Guide. Whatever. But your S & C coach showing off his street cred... that may be too much for the party poopers at the NCAA. I hope not, but it seems they pretty much dump on everything else that could be considered ANY way to attract kids to a school. Don't believe me? Go to the M Athletic Dept and see if you can get a signed football or basketball to raffle for your favorite charity. It'll take weeks if not months and you have to sign an NCAA compliance form stating that nobody in middle or high school who is an athlete will receive the ball - because that could be a recruiting tool to make kids want to go to your school. So it's not a reach to think they'll look poorly on all of the hype about who's hanging around the weight room. But I hope not. [Title]

And while I'm certainly not high on the WVU fan list, the STATE and the UNIVERSITY are two different things.... I just need to convince my WVU friend of that. That aside, I never had a problem with the new M road unis. But your comment does give me a little ammo to plug back at him with. If the new road unis are so "bad" or "ugly" and you still have some that look like it, ummmmm, doesn't that mean that THOSE WVU unis are just as ugly? LOL! That's why it's fun to have friends who don't share similar opinions on everything. We argue like cats & dogs at times but still enjoy a brew and hanging out. [Title]

Berman is annoying and probably needs to focus on radio. Harsh but there's a time when guys move from on camera to off and he's there. I'm not watching. Despite her calling him "Boom" I give her a pass. Mainly because she's easy on the eyes. A sexist thing to say, but she draws a particular audience. It's what they want at ESPN. [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 years 2 weeks ago [Body] A lot of news organizations seem to set up this mentality of "gotcha" and that anyone who makes bank is somehow doing so on the take or against the rules. TRUST ME if we printed the home phone numbers of the Editors they would have a coniption. Their argument would be that they are not public figures in charge of the public trust. However, newspapers have pretty much enjoyed a monopoly in their hometowns with regulators looking the other way. It's always been a case of the "do-gooders" trying to uncover something untoward - even if nothing untoward is going on. It's how they operate. They also have a very anti-profit mentality, execpt where the newspaper is concerned. If the football team or athletic department makes money, it's a bad thing. If the paper makes money, it's expected. Funny though how the marketplace of information has caught up with the newspapers and places like MGoBlog have taken over the position of being THE place for information about something folks care about like M sports. I know Brian is a fan but he's no shill. If something WRONG was going down, I know he'd call it out. Otherwise he'd be labeled as a shill and readership of MGoBlog would spiral downward. The paper in it's effort to appear "independent" continues to cut off its nose to spite its face. You can't stomp on the very entity that makes people want to read you for info without losing contacts within that entity or readership or both. It's OK to investigate how things are run. It's another to make insinuations and print phone numbers of the people in charge to CREATE an atmosphere that something is wrong when apparently it isn't. [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 years 2 weeks ago [Body] On some of the older versions you could mess with lineups on any team and save them. I don't know about the newer versions. I always made a 7" QB that had the body of a tank with like 99% passing, running, accuracy, stamina, speed., etc. Kind of looked like Jared Lorenzen only taller, and with talent. LOL! I never played the whole deal with recruiting, etc. I am not sure you can still do this on the new versions. [Title]

Output: On some of the older versions


Input: [Date] 7 years 2 weeks ago [Body] I don't care what they wear really. I'm glad M will make bank on the new purchases of the licensed goods. I also do see that it will be tough on some folks to rake $150 out of the wallet in today's economy. That's just the facts of life. Can't criticize folks for that. Unlike some comments I've read, I DON'T think you're "more" of a fan if you have the authentic or the replica or a Steve & Barry's T. As long as it's Maize & Blue, says Mighican on it, and you're showing pride in the team, I'm cool with it! Trust me, I catch HELL for wearing Michigan stuff to the gym in the land of Ohio State AND WVU but I wear it just about EVERY day. Let' 'em hate!!! I DO smell a LARGE sale on the NIKE versions though coming up VERY very soon. Someone let me know if you see one! LOL! [Title]

Be that as it may, I'm curious how many of you just f*ck with Ohio State's lineup and just make them a team you can crush again and again? How many "play them" straight up? I admit, I always create a QB that is just freakishly good for M and mess with the OSU lineup so I can see M win again and again... Watch, one day they're gonna make the game REAL and make that an NCAA violation so your next season sucks plus forfeits, etc. [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 years 3 weeks ago [Body] There was a series of like 3 games in the late 80s - early 90s that Iowa and Michigan had decided on last second field goals or game ending plays. I was at the Iowa game in Ann Arbor where M kicked the 43 yard winner in the rain and wind to win as the clock hit :00. There is no question that was one of the loudest crowds because we did the Wave and Bo was fit to be tied. It was one of the first times the Wave was ever done at M Stadium and he wrangled up his head set into a knot, threw it on the ground and stomped on it because we - the fans - got a penalty for making TOO MUCH noise.

Output: Heh heh heh! what do you think he means, tonight you? It's like he's threatenin' me or somthing.


Input: [Date] 5 years 23 weeks ago [Title] All of these are gone? [Body]

Output: I assumed the marshmallow thing was over (i was there for some of the more vicious frozen marshmallow incidents) but i had no idea the Bullwinkle song and slamming the opposing mascot into the goal post was extinct as well. I have to say the piped in music made me cringe but i accepted it, the lack of Bullwinkle time is anathema to me.


Input: [Date] 5 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Seymour was not really [Body]

Output: Seymour was not really utilized as a pass rusher in that defense. He was mostly tasked with taking up multiple blockers so that the LBs had gaps to attack. That being said losing Harrison, Vrable, Bruschi, Seymour, Hobbs, and now Mayo is really taking it's toll on the D. Dan Pees on the pass rush: "We can always improve in the rush, but also some of it designed by gameplan to play some coverage and some of it was designed to put some pressure on them. We didn't always get there like wanted to, but really we've just got to improve in both the coverage part of it and the rush."

Input: [Date] 5 years 50 weeks ago [Title] At the risk of getting nega-bombed [Body]

Output: I have worked in dealer service as an advisor for 7 years. I can probably answer a lot of your questions, so fire away. Blazefire, dealers are independantly owned and operated. Manufacturers have no ability to tell the dealers what to do. You can complain, and those complaints will be forwarded to the dealer, but they cannot force the dealer to do anything. bj, the dealer i work at would have charged you $100 to tell you that. gas cap = evaporative system leak. Diagnosing this usually means they had to pressurize the fuel system and follow for the leak. The tech is gonna charge 1 hour labor for that. that being said, when a customer tells me their service engine light is on my 1st question is always 'did you just get gas? is the cap tight? check it and call me back'. gordie, was the car new when you bought it? if so the remotes are probably covered under the factory warranty. i would guess at least 3 years, but i don't know what specific make you have. there are dozens of different extended warranties out there. some cover remotes, some don't. you can always call them directly and ask, it's possible the advisor is assuming they don't cover it cause so many don't and he never specifically checked. did you already try replacing the batteries in the remotes? if it's not the remotes themselves then yeah, i could see having to leave it off for a while, electrical diagnostics are a bear. hope this helps

Input: [Date] 6 years 3 days ago [Title] I don't know about the rest [Body]

Output: I don't know about the rest of you but I am hella-pumped about the upcoming season. I think it's gonna be somethign that for me Michigan football has not been in a while.... exciting. I think the offense will be dynamic and fst-paced, and the defense.... well the defense will keep us on the dge of our seats. Are we gonna be 12-0, 11-1 or even 10-2. no i don't think so. will i root for and expect them to win each individual game? of course. I'll be okay with 7-5 but i will expect much more. Go Blue

Output: that was a tough loss last night, i hardly see how they are bowing out. Also, average Red Wings age = 28. Average Dicks age = 31.88.


Input: [Date] 6 years 12 weeks ago [Title] there is [Body]

Output: no centerman on your second line Hossa, Franzen, Huddler are all wings (not the red kind, the offensive kind). You need to replace one of them with Drapes, Helm, or Flipper

Output: why are you feeding the troll?


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] What is this, lent? [Body]

Output: It's gonna be tough to give it up, this stuff is like water for me. I can switch over to Knob Creek, but I'm not gonna enjoy it (as much). Let's hope AA gets an anti-Ohio version soon so it can all balance out.

Output: That is one of my favorite MST3k.


Input: [Date] 6 years 37 weeks ago [Title] Woods will fill in [Body]

Output: for AD in the base package but probably not so much in sub packages. Crable is on IR as the previous poster stated, but from what I had gathered his special teams performance was lacking and one reason he hadn't seen any playig time even prior to his shin injury. Also, AD is not out for the season at this point but it's still early.
