Input: [Date] 4 years 12 weeks ago [Title] Suspended from all team activities for the entire season [Body]

Output: but soon to be shortened until Sept 2nd after he works his way back on the team.


Input: [Date] 4 years 13 weeks ago [Title] I hope [Body]

Output: that is their response. The longer they take the "can't tough this" attitude, the worse it will be for them. The best thing for them that they could do right now is to try to grovel. I'm hoping that they stand defiant!!


Input: [Date] 4 years 13 weeks ago [Title] Come on, guys [Body]

Output: Tressell is a saint. Leave the guy alone. Oh, and OSU thought of barring him from the spring game, but then decided not to. Its the thought that counts, right?

Output: I'll go with Miami (YTM)


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Title] We had near 50,000 last year [Body]

Output: and it was 35 and snowing If I was a fan at my first spring game, I probably would never come back. It was a horrible day the weather stupid print-at-home tickets that meant nothing, didn't even hear who won any of the prizes people begging for money every 5 minutes, I get it, its a charity fund-raiser, I'll give at the entrance, you don't need to bug me every 5 minutes in the stands cars lining the subdivision near the game all were ticketed by AA police barely an hour of practice, Coach Hoke said it was because of depth...huh? The guys were tired after that? It was really, really bad and it wasn't just the weather. I'm already questioing if i ever want to go again.


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Title] Yeah [Body]

Input: [Date] 4 years 17 weeks ago [Title] You really should register [Body]

Output: I get all kinds of emails with information and sweet deals.


Input: [Date] 4 years 17 weeks ago [Title] I think he was talking about [Body]

Output: I think he was talking about what Dion Sims was involved in.


Input: [Date] 4 years 17 weeks ago [Title] No [Body]

Output: I'm not a season ticket holder. I think I get the letter, because I'm registered at mgoblue.com and occasionally buy tickets through the website. I was shocked the first time I got that letter, but I guess Michigan was just doing everything they could to make sure no one mistakenly violates NCAA rules.


Input: [Date] 4 years 17 weeks ago [Title] I'm just a fan [Body]

Output: that occasionally goes to games and I get a letter once a year telling me that I am a booster. In this letter, it details what actions to avoid so that I don't violate NCAA regulations. If I'm a booster, then Sarniak has to be. The University of Michigan did not self-report any of the violations for basketball. They sat on them for quite a while and denied any wrongdoing for much of the time that it was known that Ed Martin was being investigated by the FBI. This put a dark cloud over AA and other coaches used this to woo recruits away from Michigan. This was another factor in the downfall of Michigan basketball. Even if they rule that Sarniak was a friend of the family like Jalen with Ed Martin, there are limits on what friends can give to athletes. They can't just do anything they want, because they've been friends for a while.


Input: [Date] 4 years 26 weeks ago [Title] shin splints [Body]

Output: Best thing I ever learned for shin splints...prevention is key. Sit down on a bench, stool, couch, whatever so that your butt is higher than your feet. Put your feet flat on the ground, raise your toes up as high as they can go and hold tight leaving the heel of your foot on the ground...hold...hold. You'll feel the muscles in your shin tightening, release letting your toes go back down to the floor...repeat this exercise for 3 sets of 12 reps every day forever...You won't get shin splints as long as you regularly do this simple little exercise. Hope that helps, sorry if repeated, read through and hadn't seen it As for your arch, your stride is probably messed up...when you run, your feet should be straight...not toe pointed out...common problem...also, shorten your stride...don't reach your feet too far out in front of you, use shorter stride and step more rather than a long stride


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Title] Cable Car Brewing Co. [Body]

Output: Small Batch Winter Brew


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Title] If seems like you bitch and [Body]

Output: If seems like you bitch and moan for every single kid that might commit or has committed that isn't a 4 star. Do you not like this kid because you yourself are a great talent evaluator or because you see a single number next to their name and assume you know everything there is to know about the kid? How about instead of analyzing every kid by a single number, you start thinking for yourself and develop a much more informed opinion of the kid before you pass judgement based on the 'star rating'. For instance, what are the kids offers? What is the actual scouting on the kid? Does this kid fit our scheme? Has this kid attended recent camps? If so, how did he do? Have the coaches been able to study just his film or have they also had the opportunity to see him in person? Also, if he is a three-star, is he a low 3-star, or he is just a couple of positional players away from being a four-star? What are the kid's weaknesses? Are these things that can coached up or not? I think if you go through each of those questions and form your own informed opinion for these recruits you might find yourself not being so unhappy about the lack of stars attached to their name. End rant.


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Heaven forbid a player wants [Body]

Output: Heaven forbid a player wants to get paid what he is worth on the open market considering the cash cow that is the NFL. Teams don't show any loyalty to the players so why complain about players not showing loyalty to the team?


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 4 days ago [Title] You seemed to convienantly [Body]

Output: You seemed to convienantly ignore the fact that those people you listed are all freshman or sophomores and that Walton, one of those highly rated players, has been playing with a bad toe all year. Even highly rated players can't be expected to to carry a team their first few seasons, yet that is exactly what has been asked of them. It has led to a few poor outings, but one can see the improvement and continued development. So yes, the scrappy underdog narrative is appropiate for this team.


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Drummond is well on his way [Body]

Output: Drummond is well on his way to filling that role. And he was drafted ninth overall.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Exactly. The people that [Body]

Output: Exactly. The people that complain about Avila are the same who think batting average and how many RBIs they have are super important to being a good hitter.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 4 days ago [Title] You are aware that Kyle Kalis [Body]

Output: You are aware that Kyle Kalis did something similar, except he switched from Ohio State to Michigan right?


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 4 days ago [Title] 1. I am just trying to say [Body]

Output: 1. I am just trying to say that Michigan isn't so stocked with proven running back talent that we can act like we are completely fine without him. Any talented guys we can add to the fold will certainly help. 2. We do not know for a fact they will get better coaching until we get a running back coach and see how they perform during a live game. Until then, we are just hoping that Fred Jackson wasn't a great coach near the end and anyone we get will have to be better.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 4 days ago [Title] That is all? As in that is [Body]

Output: That is all? As in that is all of the running backs on the roster next year and we may be in trouble because one is an unproven transfer, one just tore their ACL again, and the other two have been underwhelming over a large sample size? Or that is all as in, they had all these recruiting stars and all that glitters is gold?


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Just cause your user name is [Body]

Output: Just cause your user name is a guy that is a cold-hearted bastard on a television show doesn't mean you need to live up to that standard.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Trip to the title game was [Body]

Output: Trip to the title game was spearheaded by Burke, Hardaway, and McGary with Staukas and Robinson providing support. Trip to the elite eight was Stauskas, Levert, Morgan, and Robinson. Two entirely different cores that made those runs and its not even debatable.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Actually you can. You just [Body]

Output: Actually you can. You just can't keep turning these relatively under the radar kids into first round draft picks. Unless you are getting one and done kids routinely, losing six very talented kids in two years is very hard to overcome.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] We made two deep tourney runs [Body]

Output: We made two deep tourney runs with two very different cores. I believe that discredits your Matt Painter comparison, no?


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] You can't use experience when [Body]

Output: You can't use experience when we are ranked behind both of those schools and #322 overall in experience. Talent-wise are we better? Absolutely. Experience. Not a chance. And sometimes those young guys take a few years to turn the corner and play consistently good basketball. Michigan basketball has been lucky to have freshman and sophomores capable of stepping up in the past two years but lets not act like thats a given. Some guys take more time. Chapman will be one of those. His top 30 ranking belies his future potential. Not necessarily instant impact. Thats okay. But if thats the case, we are left with our three guards, Spike, and a bunch of raw freshman. When those four are on we can beat very good teams. But if one or more struggle we can lose to anyone. Just give it time. This season will be a roller coaster but I expect them them to improve given Beilein's track record and probably surprising you at the end.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Except Beilein has shown he [Body]

Output: Except Beilein has shown he can win a lot of games with an exceptionally young roster. To expect that to be maintained every year is just ridiculous.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] And your posts stem from a [Body]

Output: And your posts stem from a lack of a brain which would be an exaggeration if you didnt say the reigning big ten coach of the year is on the hot seat.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] This team lost a coin flip to [Body]

Output: This team lost a coin flip to a legitimate top ten tean and has beaten two solid programs in Oregon and Syracuse. If you are going to let two poor games in a 30 game season lead you to not care then I don't know what to tell you. Its within your right as a fan. But come on man. We have one of the youngest teams in the country coupled with one of the best coaches in the country. There will be progression. It won't be as sweet as the last two years but it will be eons more exciting than seeing this team under Amaker or a football team coached by Hoke.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] 2013 Michigan football wasn't [Body]

Output: 2013 Michigan football wasn't coached by a guy who had already won two Big Ten regular season titles or had gone to a national championship game two years prior.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Doesn't come close you say? [Body]

Output: Doesn't come close you say? So this team has played really well and lost a coin flip to a top ten team and it has now played poorly in two games against inferior competition. Experience would certainly help with this teams consistency. Oh and so would Burke, Stauskas, Robinson, McGary, or Horford. But yeah, having to play guys like Spike and Bielfeldt most of the game with no other viable alternatives has nothing to do with our performance...


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] This team has five schloarship players that aren't [Body]

Output: This team has five schloarship players that aren't freshmen. Three of those are two star flyer level players and one of those has improvred to be potentiallly an all-big ten player. In the past two years we have lost five players (4 first round picks and an early second round) early to the NBA and another one (Horford) because he thought one of those guys (McGary) wasn't going to the NBA. Does that justify these two losses? No. Is this rough to go through? Absolutely. But at some point these defections along with not recruiting like the Dukes of the world every year was going to catch up. Everyone just needs to relax and be willing to tough it out with this team. There will be more heartbreakers. And there will also be reasons for optimism. In Beilein I trust.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Sounds like another case [Body]

Output: Sounds like another case where the agent leaks these reports in the hopes their client (Cutliffe) gets an extension and raise.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 6 days ago [Title] 1. Making a bowl game does [Body]

Output: 1. Making a bowl game does not mean you had a good year or your team is any good. 2. If Michigan played 3 cream puffs + 1 power 5 non-conference opponent similarly to Illinois we would be in a bowl game as well. Or taken in reverse, if they played our non-conference schedule, they would too would be staying home this holiday season.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 10 hours ago [Title] If I were the Big 12, I would [Body]

Output: If I were the Big 12, I would hold off on adding any additional teams and begin fighting for the college football playoff to be expanded to 6 or 8 teams. If that can occur within a reasonable time frame, they wouldn't have to add two sub-par teams and their seat at the table is then assured every year.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 1 day ago [Title] If I had to guess it is [Body]

Output: If I had to guess it is because Saban is so far and away the best coach in college football that it can be a turn off to see them winning or coming close to winning a national title every year.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Its upsetting but at the end [Body]

Output: Its upsetting but at the end of the day how much will this loss actually swing our RPI? 4 spots? Thats a single seed line and easily overcome. I mean Kansas lost at home to TCU (approximately a comparable loss) two years ago and was only a Trey Burke miracle away from going to the Elite 8. Things are going to be okay.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Dhani Jones on that travel [Body]

Output: Dhani Jones on that travel show? I can't remember the name off the top of my head.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 3 days ago [Title] "Everyone has an opinion, and [Body]

Output: "Everyone has an opinion, and I am no different," Carr said Thursday. "If I had a choice, I would choose Jim Harbaugh. But it will be Jim Hackett's decision, and that is as it should be." Thats literally all he said when asked his opinion on the coaching search. Maybe you need to turn off your cell/computer if thats how you are going to react when a former coach provides a rationale answer to something he was asked.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I think you are being a bit [Body]

Output: I think you are being a bit harsh towards the OP considering you could say the same thing for 99% of the board posts since Hoke was fired.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Got to love spread haters and [Body]

Output: Got to love spread haters and their anecdotal evidence (Rich Rod failed here!) in the face of years and years of data points that indicate its an easer and more effective offensive system to run.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Michigan needs to get the [Body]

Output: Michigan needs to get the right coach with a system that will allow for us to win the most games a few years from now. I am fine with a less than stellar record next year if it means Michigan is set up for sustainable sucess further down the road. There are always a few bumps in a coaching transistion, and I understand the mindset of wanting to minimize those, but this can not come at the expense of hiring someone who offers Michigan the most potential once his system is in place.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Dear God man. You do realize that if you are [Body]

Output: Dear God man. You do realize that if you are playing football at a big time school, your college experience is largely going to be influenced by who is the head coach? These kids should reconsider their commitment any time a coach is fired or leaves a program.


Input: [Date] 50 weeks 5 days ago [Body] But of them only McGary was highly ranked when targeted by the coaching and committing to Michigan. The rest were underish the radar types. Still plenty of time before we call this years recruiting "bad" [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 42 weeks ago [Body] Excuse me??? No better than decent defense! We're 27th in the effing nation on points against per game. And that has been with a metric shit-ton of turnovers leading directly to points. Now, even without those we aren't what I'd call elite (a la MSU), but come on. It's a far cry better than decent. [Title]

Output: Excuse me??? No better than

Output: When Gardner had thrown a


Input: [Date] 1 year 42 weeks ago [Body] 5 touchdowns on 8 possesions with no turnovers. Take that rate on an average game and number of possesions (which is what, 12 possesions?) and you get 7.5 touchdowns a game....seems pretty damn good to me. Yes it was sloppy, but I'll take it. [Title]

Output: 5 touchdowns on 8 possesions


Input: [Date] 1 year 42 weeks ago [Body] Seriously guys?? Calm the eff down. This was a very good defensive performance. They had one good drive with 75 of their yards (and most of their 3rd down conversions). Outside of that they had 206 yards on 9 possesions with two turnovers and two field goals. I'll take that kind of performance any day; one bad defensive possesion a game is good with me. Yeah the defense played bend not break, but that was the gameplan. Looked like Hoke wanted a slow game (see no passes for Gardner in the first) so that the team would remain settled. For those of you complaining about Countess...REALLY? He has 4 picks this year and got beat on one play (which they didn't even convert). Any other catches in his area are usually by play-calling and he makes the tackle dang near immediately. He has been fantastic. Have some faith in this defensive coaching staff and how they call the game. It worked. Mattison is a top defensive coordinator in the nation and turned the worst Michigan defensive in history into a top 20 defense in the nation in one year. [Title]

Output: Seriously guys?? Calm the eff


Input: [Date] 1 year 46 weeks ago [Body] Yep, Michigan never had a quarterback who liked to run and got dinged up once or twice a game... [Title]

Output: Yep, Michigan never had a


Input: [Date] 1 year 46 weeks ago [Body] I'd say you're going way overboard. In this day in age a school would be crushed if it was caught for something like that. I'd like to think even Urban Meyer would have enough decency to care about Braxton's health [Title]

Output: I'd say you're going way


Input: [Date] 1 year 47 weeks ago [Body] What's the difference between SDE and WDE? From what I've read and heard it seems people aren't too excited about Heitzman at SDE but thinks we have three solid at WDE (Clark, Ojemudia, Tacopants). Why can't we just swing one of those three over to SDE? [Title]

Output: What's the difference between

Output: first double post. oops


Input: [Date] 2 years 3 days ago [Body] If you're going the advanced metrics, he was an above average player (above 16 PER). Knight meanwhile had around a 12 PER which is far from average. Also, he provides an ACTUAL POINT GUARD. Knight was not a point guard and we had no one else to fill that role. Now we have him as a starter, KCP at shooting guard and some backups like Billups for leadership [Title]

Output: If you're going the advanced


Input: [Date] 2 years 3 days ago [Body] He's an upgrade over Knight, that's for sure. We needed a starting point guard and that's what we got with him. Stop with the comparisons to Villanueva and Gordon...Knight is younger and cheaper than Gordon. Smith is younger and better than villanueva [Title]

Output: He's an upgrade over Knight,

Output: Awesome for the team! Now


Input: [Date] 2 years 13 weeks ago [Body] Agreed. Put Burke at the 1 and a rotation of Knight and Stuckey at the 2 (lets face it, neither of them are point guards no matter what they say). Who cares about the 3 and then Drummond and Monroe at the 4 and 5. Burke could run the offense but Knight and Stuckey would provide a very good handler/distributer at the shooting guard position. I think that would work great with our two bigs [Title]

Output: Agreed. Put Burke at the 1

Input: [Date] 2 years 25 weeks ago [Body] You could even argue it's a bigger deal to win it in NCAAB...many of the recent winners have gone on to great/good careers (or still need more time i.e. Davis (and yes, even Jimmer is getting there in the pros)). Then you look at some recent heisman winners...Bradford, Troy Smith, Tebow, Leinart...I'd be very curious to look at the success rates for NCAAB POY and heisman winners and see how it actual does trend [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 years 5 hours ago [Body] Preseason rankings are of the talent of the team. not a prediction of their outcome. so in a year like this with a tough schedule, people may think we are the 8th best team, but don't think we will finish with a good record because of that tough schedule. conversely, if we had a worse team but a very easy schedule, a preaseason poll should rank us lower, even if our record is expected to be better [Title]

Yes, they may have easier games but Michigan has some solid classes coming in and I'm expecting to average around 10 wins a year.

Input: [Date] 3 years 6 days ago [Body] ahhhh, gotcha. Thank you. that makes a lot of sense now that you clarified. thanks again [Title]

Output: ahhhh, gotcha. Thank you.


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 days ago [Body] Honestly? I would rather have Sypniewski. We have a very strong class for our secondary already, and Sypniewski is a stud long snapper. This is a position that we can't overlook since he will (hopefully) have 4 full years with 10ish snaps per game. Any single one of those screwed up can ruin a game, and ruin a season. Also, going back on our commitment to him sends a terrible message. We'd be getting into Alabama shuffle territory there [Title]

Output: Honestly? I would rather have


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 days ago [Body] I'm gonna say we have three exactly. Green, Webb, and another from 2014. Treadwell is probably going to keep dragging us along, and I don't see Mcquay coming to Michigan [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 years 1 week ago [Body] That's the main reason I like hearing praise for Morris and his progression. He keeps getting better and keeps working on his flaws. Everyone has known of his arm strength, but he keeps adding more to his repetoire. [Title]

Output: Exactly


Input: [Date] 3 years 1 week ago [Body] 2. Shane Morris, Warren (Mich.) De La Salle: Morris has the strongest arm of the bunch by far and he's not afraid to use it. The ball comes out quickly and with a ton of zip, but he has also been showing more patience and touch and his long ball hasn't sailed on him as it has in the past. Morris still needs to see more of the field, but he is improving working across his body and he has been smart about checking down when needed. His physical upside is better than anyone else's at the event. Read more: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/highschool/07/22/rivals-elite-11-quarterbacks/index.html#ixzz21N6XsHB1 [Title]

Output: Link?


Input: [Date] 3 years 3 weeks ago [Body] This is my first year really following recruiting, is it typical for the average rankings to drop over time from picking up lower star recruits? That seems to be the trend this year. Michigan and Ohio both used to be around 4, now they are lower. It seems counterintuitive to me, wouldn't teams be pickier as time goes by and pick up higher ranked recruits? Can anyone help me understand this? [Title]

Output: Avg Stars


Input: [Date] 3 years 5 weeks ago [Body] McGary--he looks like a gentle giant. a lot of his critics said he plays the game to softly, hopefully this isn't the case. I'd hope he is a bruiser. Robinson--the leader of the pack. I mean look at him, he just looks like a leader. hopefully he will be given his rise in the rankings and our expectations Stauskus--the cool disinterested guy. he just looks calm, hopefully he can be calmly knocking down threes for a couple of years LeVert--the goofy guy. no reason for it or any hopes hear. He just looks a bit goofy to me. i don't know what to expect from him Albrecht--the little guy just happy to be with the rest of them. he comes in without high expectations. i'm hoping he takes that as motivation to prove himself [Title]

Output: The difference between


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] I don't see any good reason for him to not go to college and go pro instead. First, we've seen it time and again where a player has a great tournament and then does basically nothing else near as good ever again. Next, getting a college degree (and the tutelage of the golf coaches there) is something he should definitely do over trying his hand at going pro right now [Title]

Output: I don't see any good reason


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Wow...didn't realize how against talking about Rich-Rod you all are. haha. Not gonnna make that mistake again! I was just giving my opinion, sorry you all feel so strongly against it. [Title]

Output: Wow...didn't realize how


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Actually, I was talking about the difference between Hoke and Rich-Rod. Like Hoke said (and i paraphrase) the team didn't sit near each other and didn't have that team feel like it did when he was an assistant at Michigan. Lloyd still had that feel when he was there (according to friends of mine who were on the team), but after Rich-Rod it wasn't. I may be reading too much into it, but this is how I take it. That's just my opinion though, and I respect that you have a different one [Title]

Output: Actually, I was talking about


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Wow. That just speaks volumes to how Hoke is a Michigan-Man wheras his predecessor, ehhh, not so much. [Title]

Output: Thank you


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] I hate to say it but I agree with you. I hadn't thought of this before; my initail response was that it was just a wink wink nudge thing. But now, I feel like this is tough but fair punishment by Meyer (if they hadn't run I don't think it would be as big a problem and the punishment would be unfair). Thanks for the good input and being a rational buckeye fan (I'm used to encountering the crazy bunch of fans that every team has, Michigan included). [Title]

Output: I agree with a buckeye?!?!?!


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] I'm a fan of the course playing this hard. You actually have to make your shots, darn near perfectly, to stay in contention. This way you have to stay on top of your game or you're done. And thus, you don't have players like Westwood and McIlroy just hanging around a few shots back despite shooting god-awful (I hate when this happens because they don't deserve to be in contention). So, players who are on their game and playing well are rewarded, which I'm a fan of. Disagree with me if you must, but I like hard courses. It adds thrill to the game that many call boring [Title]

Output: I'm a fan of the course


Input: [Date] 3 years 7 weeks ago [Body] Schools do reimburse for official visits. So, I guess my thoughts would be they should be able to extend the period backwards to include the summer before senior year. That way, recruits don't have issues with timing and such. HOWEVER, the first problem with this is that the coaches typically get some time off in the summer and that would be gone now. Also, if you just extend the period for official visits back you run the risk of just pushing commitments back earlier and unofficial visits back earlier, which would accomplish nothing possitive. So, it could go both ways, either good or bad. But I'm inclined to think including the summer (or a part of the summer) as a time when official visits can be taken would be a good thing [Title]

Output: Schools do reimburse for


Input: [Date] 3 years 7 weeks ago [Body] This change will never happen though because of the competitive advangtage that richer schools (i.e. Michigan and Ohio) will have over other schools [Title]

Output: This change will never happen

Output: First point, I'm on board


Input: [Date] 3 years 7 weeks ago [Body] I don't know, Beilein recruits have typically seen their stock jump as the year goes on (and these top 3 have gone from none in the top 100 to all of them). So maybe they keep rising? It's hard to tell since there is still so much time to go. And then who knows what Austin Hatch will do coming back from his injuries. Only time will tell there [Title]

Output: I don't know, Beilein


Input: [Date] 3 years 7 weeks ago [Body] I think one of the key reasons for his suspension is the multiple arrests. Typically college students hit the same problem as him (i.e. suspensions) once they hit multiple offenses. [Title]

Dunn on the other hand is the sleeper in my eyes....i think he will want to stick it to tOSU then back it up on the field.

DB being a Michigan man thru and thru knows how our proud football tradition weaves us fans together. We are the greatest college football fans anywhere and many of us are in pain from the past 3 years, granted we ARE going to the first bowl game, but pain nevertheless. I know none of us wants a repeat of that HUGE DEBACLE with Les Miles, our fans cannot take another shot to the chin like that. All you have to do is look to the Miami Hurricane boards to see what they are going thru with the Jon Gruden fiasco....WE DO NOT WANT NEEDLESS BLATHERING OR GUESSING OR PONTIFICATING....WE WANT A COACH TO LEAD US OUT OF THE DEPTHS OF OUR DESPAIR AND BACK TO THE GLORY THAT IS RIGHTFULLY OURS!!

Many a recruit has shunned what is considered his "lock school" just to be with Gus and his offense. No way he goes to a school rebuilding for the second time in less than 5 years.

Input: [Date] 20 weeks 3 days ago [Body] That fact aside, this type of thing is really nothing new. While I applaud the students at universities like Michigan for trying to be aware of real world problems, they have always tended to go a little overboard. I was there in the late 90's, and had several instances of protests busting into classes, open forums where the speakers were shouted down by chants instead of engaged in conversation, etc. I used to laugh at the similarities to the movie PCU every time I saw a young woman in a bandana screaming at me about the struggles of some third world nation while attending an elite university (most likely) thanks to her parent's corporate job or family money. [Title]

Input: [Date] 21 weeks 2 days ago [Body] For some reason I always remember some kid on their team that the announcers kept calling "the human bruise" who spent the hole game diving around for loose balls. (or maybe he didn't, but in my memory that entire game was a highlight reel of threes and that kid diving into the stands and sliding around on his belly). [Title]

I would not call the police for the non crime of my son damaging my garage, I would call the police for the crime of your son damaging my garage.

Input: [Date] 26 weeks 5 days ago [Body] So if you and your buddies showed up at Treetops tomorrow and your room had all of the cabinets smashed, the walls had holes in them and the ceiling was ripped down you would just go about unpacking and starting your vacation, or would you immediately call the front desk to bitch and get another room? Who do you think is using these rooms while they are being repaired? How do you not think this is costing them business? How have you survived this long in our society believing that you can just pay to "make it whole" and move on from any incident that does not result in bodily harm? [Title]

First of all, there is a lot more damage than the hallway ceiling tiles, and even if there wasn't, there is probably a weeks worth of cleanup and repair there alone. There was also smashed cabinets and furniture, holes in walls, etc. and that is only what has been shown. There is weeks of downtime and tens of thousands of dollars in labor involved. [Title]

Input: [Date] 26 weeks 5 days ago [Body] That was a serious crime, and acting like simply paying for the damages makes everything OK is why people have that "stupid rich kid" opinion of fraternities in the first place. If you have seen the pictures that is well beyond breaking a lampshade while having a few drinks. It was willful and disrespectful destruction of a facility and personally I have a huge problem with college age kids being that arrogant and selfish and thinking throwing money at it is going to make it go away. MSU expelled students after the Cedar Village destuction and I think UofM should consider that here. [Title]

Output: That was a serious crime, and


Input: [Date] 28 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I understand the fear about the returning QB's, but I think that too many people in our fanbase have become numb to the horror that is starting a true freshman QB. Even an elite caliber talent will struggle at times in that scenario. At a best case scenario you are looking at a freshman Henne type who looked like a deer in headlights in several losses that season. I am not ready to write off next season as a step to the future, so I would rather roll the dice on a kid with a year or two of college experience. [Title]

Output: I understand the fear about

Input: [Date] 40 weeks 6 days ago [Body] "I know, I know. You're probably wondering "what radical new direction will this knight errant take the hallowed Spartan program?" Well, let me tell you: every year Michigan State will jump out to a fast start by beating a bunch of awful nonconference teams. When they play at Notre Dame, they will win. Everyone will get all hyped up for the Michigan game, which they will lose. On the off chance they do not lose, they will arrange to lose to Indiana or Northwestern or some such team to restore the cosmic balance. After the Michigan game they will collapse wholesale. Sometimes they will go to a bowl in Detroit. Other times they will stay home and cry softly into their BEET MICHIGAN cardigans. They will never, ever go to the Rose Bowl, and every year MGoBlog will start its Michigan State preview the same way. Yes, friends, times are a-changin' in East Lansing." Holy cow. He was right, just had the wrong team. [Title]

Input: [Date] 40 weeks 6 days ago [Body] This wasn't meant to be a prediction post. I meant it more to point out how often the rankings can be thrown out in rivalry games. On the homer note, though, I never understood why people think it is some badge of honor to be a realist in sports. Being a fan of an athletic team is all about being a homer. You watch the news to be a realist... watch sports to root for your team. I always assume we are going to win until we don't. If I assume we are going to lose I should find something else to do with my time. If you want to be that guy in the corner with your arms crossed claiming you knew that we were goign to lose I suggest you take your ball and go home. That is off topic, though. [Title]

Input: [Date] 50 weeks 2 days ago [Body] Having played QB (only in H.S.) I can attest that having a struggling O line is a very difficult mental hurdle as well as physical hurdle. Even on plays where the line doesn't allow pressure, your internal clock and mechanics are already impaired by the relelntless beating you have taken on previous plays. My question with Gardner is will he be forever lacking that confidence and security ( a la David Carr, Ken O'Brien, Jeff George, Tim Couch - who all found themselves in the top 15 of the all time sacked in a season list before they were 25 years old), or will he be able to forget last year and start fresh. The difference between standing calmly in the pocket and stepping smoothly into a throw, and dropping back 60% sure someone is one step away from knocking your head off are two hugely different things. Statisticians count sacks and hurries, incompletions and completions, but it is hard to quantify that additional factor. I think he performed admirably last year under tough circumstances, but it might be tougher than people realize to recover completely. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 22 weeks ago [Body] It isn't good enough to just be there, though. Get something done while you are there. Make it worth it. Remind yourself how many kids would kill to be in you shoes and take advantae of your opportunity. Not just to get the degree, but experience the culture of campus, volunteer doing something worthy (I volunteered at Project SAFEhouse, the UofM emergency room, with a program at local elementary schools, etc. and probably got more out of that than anything I learned in a classroom), go to lectures and speeches, and make sure you leave in 4-5 years a better person than you are now. That is the trick. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 hour 12 min ago [Title] Ah, Bill Lee... [Body]

Output: Yeah, Norris seems a slightly different brand of eccentric than Bill Lee, but there are elements of Lee-type behavior in there. After all, Lee was the same person who wanted the Red Sox to give him 337 as a number so when people asked who he was all he had to do was stand on his head (I don't know that this would be Norris' style, but then I could be wrong). He also threw some great quotes in mix in his career too, and I can see Norris doing that as well actually. I mean, he did in this article.


Input: [Date] 1 hour 21 min ago [Title] Almost There Anyway... [Body]

Output: With as many bowl games as there are now, the base elements are already there - now we just need to find a way to get the committee to choose that many teams and then prioritize the bowls accordingly. For example, the winner of the AutoNation Cure Bowl can play the winner of the Gildan New Mexico Bowl and thereby create a situation where a C-USA team is playing a Sun Belt team to advance to.....wait no, this is an awful example.


Input: [Date] 2 hours 17 min ago [Title] Quick Question... [Body]

Output: Is that top photo from the early 2000s perchance? I ask because I was talking with someone the other day about running backs that also saw quite a few receptions through the years at Michigan and B.J. Askew came up almost immediately. I seem to recall that over his career at Michigan, he averaged close to 10 yards per reception.


Input: [Date] 2 hours 40 min ago [Title] Just Wow... [Body]

Output: “I knew a lot of people in the band were gay and they knew I wasn’t being serious,” Cominski said. “If I were writing to a broader audience or anyone other than a few close friends I would be horrified by those words.” - in reference to the homophobic stylings of their Nebraska parody See, there's little reason to believe this contrition is genuine. You should be horrified by these words regardless really, and yet that quote is from the person who wrote the song. You have to wonder if indeed he ever really asked them if they were offended. If he had and they said "yes", would it have altered his thinking as to the wisdom of publishing this "song"? I somehow find it difficult to believe that it would. The whole article....wow....just wow. There aren't words to sufficiently describe that level of utter depravity.


Input: [Date] 2 hours 55 min ago [Title] Windows 10... [Body]

Output: I actually found out - minutes before I was about to download it - that if I wanted to do anything work-related on my machine, Windows 10 support currently exists nowhere in our corporate IT structure. That is to say, it wouldn't even let me login remotely if I downloaded it. I did manage to update the laptop that is exclusively non-work at least - it hosed a few drivers though, so I'll have to work on that this weekend maybe, but otherwise not too bad. Hell, this one machine I am on now is running 8.1 and SAP seems to HATE Windows 8.1...we're a couple systems behind here.

Input: [Date] 3 hours 4 min ago [Title] They Still Likely Win... [Body]

Output: I would imagine that they still could beat Virginia Tech even with one hand sort of restrained but perhaps not completely tied behind their back. It does not help Virginia Tech's cause that Beamerball has now become so advanced in its evolution that it has transcended the need to actually score points, at least in regulation. Sadly for them, conventional wisdom regarding football demands that winning point totals should normally be expressed in whole positive integers.


Input: [Date] 4 hours 1 min ago [Title] Just Did That... [Body]

Output: I just gave about half a bag of old Michigan tees - some of them years old - to Easter Seals in the latest of the Purges Of Crap (as my wife calls them) happening around my house, the main focus being to not have 2500 sq. ft. of stuff in a 1500 sq. ft. home. No qualms about donating those as most of them no longer fit but there's always someone out there that can wear them and hopefully will do so. The more Michigan shirts out there, the better.


Input: [Date] 4 hours 37 min ago [Title] About That... [Body]

Output: I thought it was a pretty neat little survey, but I thought about this vry thing last night. It would be fun - if there was a way to feasibly do this - to get the same survey on the fan blogs of, say, 25-30 different Division I schools scattered across conferences and the country and compare it. I would think there could be some fascinating differences.


Input: [Date] 8 hours 14 min ago [Title] To Be Fair... [Body]

Output: To be fair, it is petty fascinating to see the array of services you can actually get through Twitter and usually faster than using, say, 800 numbers. We've used it at work to get IT help with some of our systems and we have had people report outages and other trouble to the corporate account and get help faster than through traditional channels. It's a pretty cool way to get spot assistance if you need it and most corporate accounts are manned during all the but the small hours (save for critical stuff, where you can get 24/7 help in some cases).


Input: [Date] 17 hours 41 min ago [Title] Very Nice... [Body]

Output: Always glad to see Wolverines getting a shot at the next level. I know he was at Houston's camp in May, but hopefully this evolves into something good for Taylor. Good luck and congratulations to him.


Input: [Date] 21 hours 21 min ago [Title] Near Grand Rapids... [Body]

Output: I had a pretty good experience and some great beer at White Flame in Hudsonville - that's actually not terribly far from Grand Rapids either, if you're concerned about an extensive amount of travel in the state and want to stay relatively local. Their oatmeal stout - Ugly Stick - was rather good, I thought.


Input: [Date] 21 hours 30 min ago [Title] Right Call... [Body]

Output: Like others, I was kind of beginning to worry that they would go out and try something brash like buy or worse, stand with what they had - that would have been the worst thing they could have done, in my opinion. Selling is definitely the right thing to do, although now they have to try to cobble something together in the next day and a half or so, most likely involving Price, I would think. Stranger things have happened in baseball, of course.


Input: [Date] 22 hours 32 min ago [Title] In The Coming Weeks... [Body]

Output: In the coming weeks, I think we might need to have some sort of open forum for other marsupials on the board - bandicoots, wallabies, possums, wombats....and so on - so we can talk about a formal policy for the treatment of this particular infraclass of mammals to prevent any tension. Let the mods know if there is interest - we can set that up.


Input: [Date] 1 day 1 hour ago [Title] As I Recall... [Body]

Output: As I recall, David Bennett is now a high school athletic director. With any luck, he hasn't had an occasion to break out that story yet because as hilarious as that press conference became, I can only imagine some parent asking the superintendent, "Ummm....is he alright? Does he really need a new screen door and this is just a poetic way of saying it?"


Input: [Date] 1 day 1 hour ago [Title] This Right Here... [Body]

Output: The single biggest disadvantage to ESPN3 might just be this. Although by contract in most cases ABC / ESPN gets the first cut, that seems like it is strictly for the main network, with the conference networks picking second. It probably falls off quickly from there in terms of game watchability most weeks, but of course this depends much on your own fandom. I've had the ESPN3 feed up during games - they do sometimes air the out-of-region stuff from the main telecast depending on your location.


Input: [Date] 1 day 3 hours ago [Title] Questions Answered... [Body]

Output: I've got two kids - 9 (daughter) and 8 (son) years old. My son has shown a lot more interest in baseball than anything else, so while I am guessing my might be relieved of really having to make that call about football at all if that trend continues, if he asked to try it out, I personally wouldn't object but I would want him to go into it understanding the risks inasmcuh as possible. Would I actively encourage it and nudge him in that direction? No - my father was a defensive end and his knees and back are chronic problems for him, so I don't need to go very far as to show him why I wouldn't actively encourage it.


Input: [Date] 1 day 4 hours ago [Title] Kraft's Statement.... [Body]

Output: NBCSports has Robert Kraft's statement here - LINK I have come to the conclusion that this was never about doing what was fair and just. Back in May, I had to make a difficult decision that I now regret. I tried to do what I thought was right. I chose not to take legal action. I wanted to return the focus to football. Nice little dig in the opener of this quote, I thought. This is in a portion of the statement where he explains that the reason he did not take action then was in the hope that the appeal would illustrate the silliness of all this. I wouldn't expect Kraft to take another position than this, of course, but there are other shots within it that don't quite conceal genuine anger from how it reads. I heard that stealing Mentos from the party store is a lifetime ban in Goodell's world too.


Input: [Date] 1 day 8 hours ago [Title] From Here... [Body]

Output: I want to say that Hackett has already done the single most important thing, and that is helping to lay down the foundation for what should hopefully be some great times ahead, and not just for football necessarily. More broadly than football (though the Harbaugh hire should not and will never be overlooked in terms of its importance), he has helped to reform the culture of the athletic department, giving it a considered and logical direction. Most anything Hackett does from here seems like it would be a bonus.


Input: [Date] 1 day 20 hours ago [Title] Not Really A Caption... [Body]

Output: It's not really a cpation per se, but looking at the photo, this doesn't really work unless Urban Meyer starts belting out "88 Lines About 44 Women" in the background. If he did this, I want to see the Vine at the very least....also, the Vine of reactions to him doing it.


Input: [Date] 1 day 22 hours ago [Title] Just Unfathomable... [Body]

Output: I like that the NFL has priorities - backwards, nonsensical ones, but priorities all the same. Clearly, mischief with the game balls is as serious...actually moreso than assaulting other human beings in the mind of Roger Goodell and how dare Tom Brady do something so dastardly to undermine the character and integrity of the game and those who play it. Actually, I hope "....and by the way, fuck Goodell" is now an appropriate way to close meetings, parties and other sorts of gatherings.


Input: [Date] 1 day 22 hours ago [Title] Bucket List Item... [Body]

Output: At the very least, it's another item to scratch off the football bucket list for me potentially - Army is the only service academy that I have not seen play in person actually, so there's that. I actually had not seen Air Force play in person until we played them, come to think of it. Like others have said, barring massive improvement on their part, this one is probably a cupcake, but I would take this over MAC or FCS opponents in the OOC schedule.


Input: [Date] 1 day 22 hours ago [Title] For Me Anyway... [Body]

Output: The road trip game for me this year (I haven't been able to do this for a few years because life and associated things) is going to be Indiana, primarily because that's he only Big Ten venue I've never been to, oddly enough (other than Rutgers - I saw a Maryland game when they were still in the ACC years ago, so I count it...sort of). I missed a chance due to a family emergency several years ago and just never got back to it.


Input: [Date] 1 day 22 hours ago [Title] If I Could... [Body]

Output: If I could, I would make it blog policy that any child whose first word is verified to be "Harbaugh" should probably be given automatic trusted user status as soon as they are able to have an MGoBlog account (whenever their parents decide that is, of course).


Input: [Date] 1 day 22 hours ago [Title] Fastest Car... [Body]

Output: The fastest car I have ever owned was the one I sadly I had to give up about 10 months ago because I didn't want to do the necessary engine rebuild - the police interceptor version of the Impala. It had that V8 they had to shoehorn in there, but it was pretty fast and turned flat and beautiful. The fastest one I've ever driven is my dad's 1968 Firebird, which I keep telling him I plan to sticker at the estate sale as "give to me".


Input: [Date] 2 days 8 hours ago [Title] After All... [Body]

Output: I would like to think so - after all, as I like to explain to people, the Jug is a Michigan resident and probably resents this attempt by Minnesota to hold it hostage and it is likely quite worried about the stack of unanswered mail now waiting at the foot of its apartment in Ann Arbor. Also, so many summer plans ruined by Gophers - the jug is quite upset.


Input: [Date] 2 days 18 hours ago [Title] Very Cool... [Body]

Output: Very nice spot. I wonder if they'll do a few more, as it is another way to get the team itself involved in building some further hype for the season. I really enjoyed the "Who's got it better than us?" at the end as well.


Input: [Date] 2 days 21 hours ago [Title] Same Thought... [Body]

Output: I had the same thought watching that video - I miss those lines. They were a big part of the reason that Thomas could, for example, average about 144 net yards per game in 2000 by himself. There are a fair number of things about Michigan football that the last several years have taught me never to take for granted, but these videos bring beck fantastic memories indeed.


Input: [Date] 2 days 22 hours ago [Title] Even Further... [Body]

Output: Actually, with as much excitement and general hype as there has been with this particular hire, I would not be shocked if they broke it out into two lines, one extending south from the stadium into downtown Milan or thereabouts, the other going east, extending down Stadium to Washtenaw and through Ypsilanti, terminating somewhere in the Ecorse & Telegraph area in Taylor.


Input: [Date] 3 days 41 min ago [Title] With Pictures... [Body]

Output: The embed codes that Twitter generates have a strange reaction to whatever Drupal module deals with embedded content on the board, particularly in the original posts - sometimes, if you wait a bit and leave the page open, the correct content should appear. Not sure if that's a version that needs updating or what, but it usually does work in the replies consistently. The slide show on the site is recommended for the historic images though.


Input: [Date] 3 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Fears [Body]

Output: To be honest, the team that scares me the most out of that bunch is Boise State. People tend to underestimate BSU, and they really are a solid football team. I still think last year's Boise St team was better though. I think I'd like a match up with Stanford much more than one with Kansas St. Just because if we're going to play in a BCS game, I want a top opponent to measure Michigan against.


Input: [Date] 3 years 38 weeks ago [Title] Rapid Reaction [Body]

Output: I can understand why the play stood as called, from a replay standpoint. But that was clearly a TD, and the official on the field got it wrong. He called him out of bounds without paying any attention to him knee being down. On the last play of the game, the Iowa defender was ALL over Roundtree, officials weren't even watching the fucking play. So I think Michigan got jobbed of a chance. But that being said, we still needed a 2-point conversion and overtime. Personally I believe Michigan didn't deserve to win, terrible play calling all day. Obviously Robinson has never heard of scrambling.


Input: [Date] 3 years 43 weeks ago [Title] Rankings [Body]

Output: A lot of teams ahead of us in the top 25 polls lost today. Look for us to move up quite a bit. Not sure if I should be excited or scared.


Input: [Date] 3 years 43 weeks ago [Title] Not hurting play [Body]

Output: It is very unlikely that an abscess would affect his play on the field at all, pre or post operation. It's just uncomfortable is all.


Input: [Date] 3 years 43 weeks ago [Title] 4th and Short [Body]

Output: My mindset for play calling has always been more on the aggressive side. Granted, I'm sure I wouldn't hold a coaching job very long. But to me, it makes sense to go for it on 4th and short almost every time when you're over the 50. Obvious exclusions would be kicking a game tying or winning field goal. And of course it's situational. But I just believe that your success rate will be higher when playing more aggressive in certain situations than conventional knowledge suggests. I have similar feelings against the use of the 'prevent defense.' (I'll save that rant for another time)


Input: [Date] 3 years 43 weeks ago [Title] Wishing teams would over look us. [Body]

Output: Thanks for the interesting piece jamiemac. I find it a little scary to be favored in the Nebraska game specifically, but I am also weary about vegas favoring us at Iowa, at Illinois, and at Northwestern. Since we haven't played a single road game to this point, this truly doesn't make sense to me. We're all Michigan faithful here, and we've seen what has happened on the field and over the last several years. So wouldn't you all agree that it'd be smart to bet against Michigan in quite a few of these games?


Input: [Date] 3 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Maybe Novak [Body]

Output: Maybe Blake Griffin's Novak?


Input: [Date] 3 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Perfect Video Followup [Body]

Output: M-Wolverine, you nailed that one! Is this Gophers video for real though? Don't they realize it does nothing but provide other schools with material to mock them?


Input: [Date] 3 years 44 weeks ago [Title] It should also include, do [Body]

Output: It should also include, do you like the "you suck" chant on 4th and 1 and the other team is going for it..... You'd think the people running the Band would have enough sense to wait until we stop them. This season alone, the band has done "You Suck" on a 4th down conversion 3 or 4 times, for which the opposing team has converted on all of them (ignoring 4th and a miles).


Input: [Date] 3 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Being in the middle of the [Body]

Output: Being in the middle of the student section after the ND win, I'd have to say I think the piped in music really pumped up the crowd. So I was a big fan.


Input: [Date] 3 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Yep [Body]

Output: One note of disapproval, and it's considered trolling. Just shows people on this site aren't open to other opinions.

Output: Sorry Brian, I don't agree with your poll, never have. I also don't agree with the fact that any one who voices disappointment gets their comment taken off.


Input: [Date] 3 years 45 weeks ago [Title] I'm assuming you pay no [Body]

Output: I'm assuming you pay no attention to Boise St?


Input: [Date] 3 years 45 weeks ago [Title] idk [Body]

Output: Brian, I love your blogs, but your BlogPoll every week just dumbfounds me. I think you're trying too hard to go along with the norm (essentially repeating the AP poll). You're a blogger, have your own opinion. You know just as well as the rest of us that Michigan is NOT a top 25 team. This appears to be going down the same line as the Rich Rod era. Beat a couple of crappy team plus Notre Dame, get ranked, lose to Michigan St., and subsequently every other B1G team. Our play on the field does not justify our rank. The only improvement in the D I've seen from last year is that we've forced some turn overs. And if anything, our offense has taken a nice little step back.


Input: [Date] 3 years 47 weeks ago [Title] Really? [Body]

Output: Come on man. Don't be one of the dull minded masses. Why does everyone give South Florida a free pass into the top 20? Why? Because they were handed a victory from a clearly overrated Notre Dame team? You drop Georgia out and put in South Florida at 18? Tell me, do you really believe South Florida would beat Georgia on the field?


Input: [Date] 4 years 16 weeks ago [Title] xD [Body]

Output: Oh yeah baby!!! Love Michigan getting a big time win!

Thank you guys for giving Michigan sports something to be PROUD off. They’ve played their asses off, hats of to this team. I could not be happier with the way this season ended. GO BLUE, and good luck in future seasons!!!

Input: [Date] 51 weeks 1 day ago [Body] And I too get that same response sometimes. But the best is the old people out here. Every time I respond to a go blue from an 80 year they go crazy and start singing the fight song. I take it to another level and sing that shit as loud as I can which makes them in turn sing louder. The best part is everyone in the public place looks at us like we are crazy but never say shit because how can you trash talk to an 80 year old lol [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 13 weeks ago [Body] Guy has done and said some really really things but when did America take away freedom of speech? like I said guy is an ass but shouldn't have to sell his business or be banned because of how he feels about certain people. Would you make a white owner of a hair salon sell it if she only worked with white people? The PC world we live in is getting crazier everyday [Title]

Output: I get it...

Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Title] The big difference, that you are all forgetting, [Body]

Output: The big difference, that you are all forgetting, is that Florida State is really good right now. We were really, REALLY, bad in 2008. Like unbelievably bad. The coaches didn't WANT to show the public what was going on.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Yes yes, but in comparison to [Body]

Output: Yes yes, but in comparison to West Virginia, just about everyone is non-redneck.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 6 days ago [Title] I've been here almost 6 years, and I actually love [Body]

Output: I've been here almost 6 years, and I actually love the weather - never too hot (except for the past week), never too cold. It's just that Husky stadium is built in a way that the winds swirl with the rain and make some games worthy of a fandom badge of endurance. Diehard Husky buddies of mine have decided to leave at halftime due to shitty conditions in the past. But when its nice out - holy shit that view of the lake, with the Husky Armada out there is pretty special. Fun fact - if you arrive via boat, you can head back to your vessel at halftime and fortify yourself with liquid courage.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 6 days ago [Title] The drizzle is awesome and [Body]

Output: The drizzle is awesome and the fog is breathtaking. No, what I'm talking about is games on days like this one that I attended last year between UW and ASU. Or this one, that I attended two years back against Rich Rod's Arizona team.
