Input: [Date] 5 years 23 weeks ago [Body] That sums it up, the focus needs to be on the 2010 season and the team. At the end of the day the impact these penalties have on the product on the field will be minute. We will not have a good or bad season because the NCAA finds fault with our ability to follow these particular rules. I really think the frustration being expressed is a result of all the build-up to the findings, i.e. the negative slant to the media coverage, rather than the findings themselves. We are a community very used to success so this has been a very humbling time for us all, but ultimately we will be better for having gone through this adversity and if we aren't then that's on us and no one else.

Input: [Date] 1 week 23 hours ago [Body] I've had a couple of classes with the guy, and I can say he's 100% the kind of guy you want to root for. Really kind, polite, smart, and responsible. Makes an effort to introduce himself to everyone and contribute in class, and takes things more seriously than most non-athletes I've seen. And not in a "good by athlete standards" way either, he would have no problem being a top student without the scholarship. Anyway figured I would share since a lot of times what you see of these guys on TV isn't really how they act in person. Jehu's a great dude. [Title]

Input: [Date] 15 weeks 6 days ago [Body] One big difference to my understanding: In rugby, you can give up an extra yard or two without any major consequences. As such, players are much less likely to go for the head-first "big hit" that stops the ballcarrier in his tracks. In football, an extra yard or two can make all the difference, and players are taught to tackle as such. Not to mention that rugby has its own major concussion issue going on right now. I wouldn't exactly look to that sport to model after. [Title]

Input: [Date] 15 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Good lord. I cannot for the life of me understand why people are so emotionally invested in talking politics on a sports blog. I agree that that post shouldn't have been locked - it should have been deleted. Yeah Harbaugh was tangentially involved in the whole thing - that doesn't make it an appropriate subject for a sports blog. If Harbaugh told people to go out and vote, should we have some huge discussion on the relative merits of the presidential candidates? Hell, this is a UofM sports blog, and UofM is a public university (i.e. part of the state of Michigan), maybe we should have a "Thoughts on Governer Snyder" post stickied on the MGoBoard? The first post about his tweet was toeing the line as is. This past post pretty clearly past it in my opinion. The No Politics rule is a damn good one, as evidenced by what happens in every single goddamn political post on this blog. If you want to talk politics, you can very easily go elsewhere to do so.

Input: [Date] 19 weeks 6 days ago [Body] It's an amazing album. GKMC was, for me at least, one of the all-time greats, and I wouldn't quite say the same thing about Butterfly (yet anyway). But it's still amazing. "u" had me in tears. Hearing Pac on the outro made my jaw drop. I'm just gonna repost my reddit comment on the subject: It really is an immensely dense album. Unlike GKMC it doesn't really have one unifying theme, but many - black culture, self esteem, the "pimping" of rap artists and black culture generally by America.... If I had one bone to pick it would be that the meaning is so convoluted at times that it doesn't always land as well as I feel it should. There are some songs like u (Kendrick's best in my opinion) and Blacker the Berry that are just so raw and emotional, they're incredible. But there are others on the album that left me somewhat underwhelmed, if only because they were so difficult to decipher. This isn't necessarily a bad thing - having more to digest can be good too - but it does detract from the overall feel at times and for me it's the difference between a 9/10 and a 10/10. [Title]

Output: It's an amazing album. GKMC

Input: [Date] 14 hours 16 min ago [Body] From my methodology. I've been checking on the prices daily and keeping a running average of the lowest prices. The "dip" is the lowest price I saw over that time. These are all over a week. If you're buying at the dip (I don't know what they call it in stock markets because I grew up in a commodities home) you watch the price for awhile and when you see someone offer one substantially lower than the going rate you jump on it. This happens because people of differing personalities get into the market. There are people trying to make a buck, and then there's a bunch of people who don't want to set it at the bottom but use the current market to set their price. And then every so often there's someone who's like "okay I'll just make mine 3% lower than the lowest" because he/she's impatient and just wants to sell the damn thing. However these will move so fast they're impossible to get in a high-volume market. So sometimes the best thing to do is just go in there and buy your dang ticket at the current market price because tomorrow it'll be higher, and by the time the next dip comes along it might not dip to the market price now. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 day 9 hours ago [Body] Brian's building a scary defense too. A decent nose and Zettel and Collins are both single-blocked, with Ngakoue and Biegel coming around the edges. Wartman-White is the best of the MLBs, and he's got two great man-press corners to make an evil blitzing 4-3 under work. The only weakness is the slot, but he's got two safeties, a WLB, and a nickel pick left to address it. [Title]

Output: Brian's building a scary


Input: [Date] 1 day 11 hours ago [Body] Yeah I'm not catching Schnepp on the DL because he burned his Rnd 2, Rnd 3 and Rnd 10 picks to get A+, A, and B+ guys for 3/4 positions. If he gets a good nose tackle that's a VERY good defensive line. But see the whole board. I used those rounds to get Peppers, Clement, and Longa. There is no player in the conference who can change the look of a defense like Peppers. And Clement-Elliot is a Gordon-Abdullah redux, with a HUGE dropoff after them. This is why Adam's running game is a Northwestern guy who's splitting carries with two freshmen behind a disaster of a line. Meanwhile Spriggs is his only OL I'd trade for any of mine (and some guys still on the board are better), and Butt is his best receiver after he reached for Westercamp and took Pierson-El too high. Likewise Longa; the next WLB off the board was Joshua Perry. On the other hand there are good DL (Michigan's entire two-deep is still selectable, plus some returning starters from stiff defenses) nobody's going to pick for awhile because no-one wants to take the first B guy when there's four more just like him. [Title]

Seriously though I've been looking for the right sponsor for our Podcast for a long, long time, and when Liz left the beer company she was working for to break out as a consultant and real estate agent, I approached her specifically for this, and made the price a secondary concern because she's the right kind of sponsor. She is, like Harbaugh, herself at full volume all the time, and part of the fabric of the Ann Arbor and Michigan Athletics community. With most of the things I sell we're just helping them market their thing because we have the right audience to market their thing. But this is one of those things where it's more like the sponsor wanted to help us and can justify it if a handful of MGoBloggers use her as their real estate broker. The podcast is a marketable thing that a lot of our advertisers have been interested in; it's not like it took us this long to find a sponsor; it took us this long to find Liz. [Title]

Input: [Date] 6 days 9 hours ago [Body] Brian used to go out there once a year around now for the alumni association's thing; I don't know if that event was discontinued or he just didn't get asked this year. We are doing other things with the alumni association (announcement to come). We also did an event with Todd Howard the night before the 2013 Northwestern (firedrill field goal) game that I put together. We had planned on doing that again, and had the venue chosen and everything, but Michigan was so unwatchable leading up to M00N that we canceled it. Maybe we'll do one after the season. Anyway if/when we do it'll be the second the Chicago Alumni Association Club asks us because they are an excellent group to work with. I think they're coming into town for Northwestern (homecoming) this year. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 week 16 hours ago [Body] One of the keys to all of this is Nebraska isn't leaving the Big Ten; everybody is joining the Big Ten, formerly known as the Intercollegiate Conference of Faculty Representatives, so that for the sake of TV rights and whatnot all the powers are negotiating as one entity, and scheduling each other. I know it's a pipedream. What I don't want to see is the organic method of growing from a bunch of conferences into a league, because all that does incentivize the current conferences to snatch up any program bigger than a MAC school in a colonial land-grab, which is exactly how we found ourselves in a 7-team division with Maryland and Rutgers while Iowa and Wisconsin and Purdue come around less often than Utah. The conferences grew organically well enough when television was regional and limited to four networks, and declaring a national champion was just a nerdy postseason excercise between professions that have to pay half attention. Today conferences are billion dollar corporations with their television networks, yet theyr'e still functioning under a system that expects them to be faculty representatives from elitist, non-profit educational institutions. The NCAA had their chance to become a true regulatory body, but instead chose to act more like an industry trade organization*. The best thing for college football right now would be to acknowledge that the regional conferences that grew out of the 20th century are anachronisms worth preserving, like historic neighborhoods or whatever. Without that familiar structure the whole enterprise is at risk of becoming too desaturated, i.e. an NFL-lite, which is a crappier product fewer people will care about. When ESPN inevitably defaults on whichever round of promises it has to make to secure the TV rights to the last bastion of un-DVR'able entertainment, the BIG SIX or POWER SIX or whatever you want to term it will be in perfect position to cut Fox and Disney out of their revenue stream and make what they're making now by charging $5/month and selling ads themselves on a streaming college football channel. The Big Ten is just the body out of convenience; the organizing structure of any major conference is sufficient to expand to include the 60-64 schools that operate truly professional-level (i.e. highly profitable) football enterprises. Technically everyone joins the Big Ten, or joins a new conference that handles all the "conference" stuff for the group, and is such a tour de force in college athletics that the NCAA has to kowtow to it. I have no problem trying to fit Baylor and TCU into this (TT might be a stretch since their school's athletic budget is MAC-like despite the school's history). I only left them out because I thought a Texas-based mid-major conference would make for some rockin' good regional football. * Specifically, one for mid-19th century cotton growers [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 week 1 day ago [Body] I removed the section on relegation. These schools have long traditions against each other even if they were not competitive. I would hate to lose Indiana even for a year just for the sake of recognizing 1 or even 5 good years out of say Bowling Green. Rather I capped the conferences at 11 and left spots open for expansion. If the Big East wants to add Rutgers or the Pac Ten want to add Utah there's a mechanism, but that is their only expansion and it forces their teams to all play a 10th conference game instead of an out of conf opponent.

Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Body] Every fan of every team makes all of these same statements about why their school is better, and totally clean too. Fact is the athletes are picking between heavens. Most campuses are beautiful. Most support staff are top notch. FBS coaches are among the top 200 in their profession. NFL talent comes out of so many schools that which coaches develop a position best has to mean less than what that individual player is made of (not that it doesn't matter, especially w/ quarterbacks). A little something extra makes a big difference because there isn't much difference between schools. As for fans, this site's existence when every other indie team site but 11 Warriors can't support even one blogging career speaks to something unique about Michigan fans' dedication. I have a hard time imagining there could ever be a Grantland for Just Clemson. Depending on what section you sit in though I'm sure you can encounter some pretty quiet old farts in Michigan Stadium. We even have a name for them: Blue hairs. [Title]

Input: [Date] 4 years 48 weeks ago [Title] not sure about michigan games... [Body]

Output: but they do have a new 24hour fantasy sports channel if that is your thing. just launched a couple months ago. one of my groomsmen, a buddy from high school, runs the channel. truly a 'dream job' if i've ever heard of one. if you're into fantasy sports, you should check it out.

Output: i didnt think your criticism was offbase.


Input: [Date] 5 years 9 weeks ago [Title] oversigning.com [Body]

Output: the second coolest blog on the internet after mgoblog.com. magnus, you should read this site top-to-bottom and then reassess your opinion of saban and all his success. aligning yourself there is sort of like being a yankees fan and then telling a pittsburgh pirates fan that their team sucks. seriously, read it. if you were anything but a top25 blue chip recruit, i dont think there is a shot in hell you would want to goto alabama.

Output: from anyone on the part about terrence still needing to get his SAT in order this late in the game?


Input: [Date] 5 years 26 weeks ago [Title] bizarre [Body]

Output: proliferation of the high school GPA arms race. i went to one school where A+/A/A- in honors was 5.0/4.5/4.0. another where A+/A/A- was 4.33/4.00/3.66. whats the point? soon high schools will be giving out an 8.0 for a A+++ in special honors program that youll need to pay 20K to be in in high school. just so you can have your 8.0 GPA and be better than the neighbor's kid. what a world we live in. please dont neg me for this rant.

Output: chopper. sick balls.


Input: [Date] 5 years 27 weeks ago [Title] grey shirt [Body]

Output: potentially the biggest factor here is, who has the means to be one? would love to have all these kids on the team pronto, but if someone needs to step up, who will that be? i think the answer to that is: who can afford to be? am i wrong? whoever ponys up for the grey shirt, they'd be on the hook for their freshman tuition? for an OOS kid, isn't that about 35K? i dont know the backgrounds of most in the class, but there are quite a few that cant afford that if i had to guess. Jeremy Jackson is probably the only one I think for sure could, but with him an early enrollee, is that even possible logistically? To practice with the team during spring etc then not be on the team in the fall for a season? otherwise, the second group that would come to mind would be vinopal and ryan. they attend private schools and pay (in ryan's case) 12K/year tuition in high school. i think thats why you see vinopal's name come up for a redshirt. hopefully it doesnt come to that, but resources could be the biggest driver. some of these kids would probably take a greyshirt, but just cant afford one. its a lot of money to ask a family to put forth, especially when they have full rides offered to them by other schools.


Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] where had you hear that? [Body]

Output: tia.


Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] i hear you about banking ships but... [Body]

Output: thats usually the course for someone who has the time to let the players percolate. rich's back is up against the wall and he needs players on campus NOW going through development. we just dont have 3 years for next years players to get up to speed. we banked ships last year and i truly believe it hurt us. a kid like dan mason who we couldve had, had we pushed likely wouldve seen the field some this year and would be well developed to really contribute next year. 2011 looks like a solid recruiting class in terms of depth. would love to have 20+ ships in hand, but it does us no good if we're in full swing meltdown by the time we get there. rich needs players asap.


Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] names to keep an eye on imo: [Body]

Output: sean parker rashad knight tony grimes earnest thomas jibreel black steve mehrer honorable mention (i still dont see it happening): dillon baxter i would think parker and thomas are our best chance to finish with 25. i would also add, that i would be surprised to see us sign 28. from here, i'd expect on 3 more recruits (26). if we go above that, it would be for a mehrer to greyshirt while possibly asking one or two of the existing commits to greyshirt. my only hope is that they dont bank any ships. there is a attrition stewing on this squad already imo, and we need player development to start NOW. while a grey cant practice or workout with the team, there is a lot of benefit to a greyshirt being on campus and a lot of the redshirt physical development one would normally expect will happen this way imo.


Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] confused me more... [Body]

Output: are your 2008/2009 a hypothetical set? those dont look like familiar actual numbers. how do you see it for us now with drake/witty out?


Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] do you know this to be accurate? or are these your assumptions? [Body]

Output: the numbers almost seem plausible- they just conflict some with whats been said lately.


Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] but then i dont get it? [Body]

Output: what is the 28 rule then? its def a big10 rule of some sort.


Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] thanks irish, but im still confused... [Body]

Output: so the number is 28? but what, we can only enroll 25 come aug1? what about in the scenario where we only signed 22 last year? so in the end, is it 25? or is it more?


Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] dont get too excited... [Body]

Output: dont they usually hang around to find out who the new coach is going to be? kindof get 're-recruited' etc. if usc makes a power replacement hire, do we expect a change here? how close was he to seriously not picking usc to begin with? the early enrollee thing certainly adds a neat twist.


Input: [Date] 18 weeks 6 days ago [Title] There is certainly more than [Body]

Output: There is certainly more than one way to success in the NHL but when you are a top end talent like Larkin there is something to be said about playing more games and getting into the system of the franchise you will be playing the majority of your career with. The talent level in the AHL is higher than the an NCAA and he will be playing twice the games while living a professional lifestyle. As much as I want Larkin here another year, he is going to be better served by making the jump now, or at least next year.


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 12 hours ago [Title] Maybe he was enjoying [Body]

Output: Maybe he was enjoying retirement from a 10 year NFL career and spending time with his young family? What a horrible thing.


Input: [Date] 39 weeks 10 hours ago [Title] Do you think that, just [Body]

Output: Do you think that, just maybe, part of Andrew Luck's development into the QB he is today had something to do with the coaching he received at Stanford? I'd say that is probably a good bet.


Input: [Date] 1 year 21 weeks ago [Title] Huh? His property was covered [Body]

Output: Huh? His property was covered with satanic artwork and sculptures. He had a man tied to a bed with his mouth sewn shut. He had caves, or whatever you'd call that fortress, filled with more satanic symbols, mummified bodies and other cryptic things...but he wasn't capable of putting bodies on display like that? Also, to whomever said Reggie Ledoux, who displayed the 2012 body?


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Title] Malik has done just about [Body]

Output: Malik has done just about nothing publicly, it has been his parents who have been making a scene in the public. Malik has actually been pretty quiet his whole recruitment. It is a shame his parents, specifically his mom, have made this such a spectacle.


Input: [Date] 2 years 8 weeks ago [Title] Smokenator [Body]

Output: If you have a weber, you should get yourself a Smokenator. It turns your Weber into a smoker. The best part it's that it's cheap and works just as good, if not better, than any smoker I have ever used. My only complaint is you can't smoke huge amounts of food in it, but enough for a dinner party or whatever. http://www.smokenator.com/


Input: [Date] 2 years 15 weeks ago [Title] If you watched it illegally [Body]

Output: If you watched it illegally online it did.


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Title] Hold on, [Body]

Output: Are you really comparing 2 goals in a hockey game to missing 2 shots in a basketball game? Because if you are, which seems pretty clear, then you should probably stop watching hockey.


Input: [Date] 3 years 26 weeks ago [Title] Not really that strange. [Body]

Output: My cousin is a Senior at Flint Powers, played with Danny O for his whole high school career and he comes from a very conservative family and lives out in the Country. Ann Arbor is totally different than where DOB grew up, as is a city like East Lansing, but he felt like Knoxville, TN was more his style. It just speaks to how he was raised and that his decision was about where he felt comfortable.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 5 days ago [Title] If he tweeted that after the [Body]

Output: If he tweeted that after the thing about the 49ers being 7-4, he has since deleted that, as well. I couldn't find it.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Maybe he didn't like how he [Body]

Output: Maybe he didn't like how he phrased his response. It's not easy when people are picking apart every single word used in 140 character bursts, and looking for positive signals or something that suggests a lack of credibility.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I suggested to him that the [Body]

Output: I suggested to him that the 49ers would have been 7-4 at the time of these alleged initial discussions. He responded that it might explain why interest was low at that point. I responded again that it would have been an distraction (with Harbaugh reasonably focused on making the playoffs). He deleted his response to me. I'm not sure why. I always find that odd.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 23 hours ago [Title] Brian has cited him in some [Body]

Output: Brian has cited him in some of the coaching search updates. Moss has been around a long time. He has some sources. This isn't totally random internet rumormongering.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 6 days ago [Title] I think he first tweeted that [Body]

Output: I think he first tweeted that day that the press conference would be held and that Brandon would be fired. It beat everyone else. It wasn't a random guess. And, he's not really in that business, from what I can tell. That said, I'm not the guy who you mock for buying every internet rumor that comes along. I totally get the skepticism. And, I don't care what you all believe. I'm just saying that the salt that goes with this report in particular should probably be of the grain and not the boulder variety.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 6 days ago [Title] I'm not saying he's right [Body]

Output: I'm not saying he's right about this, but I think he had Brandon's firing before anyone else. Brian might vouch for that.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 6 days ago [Title] I think you are reading too [Body]

Output: I think you are reading too much into it. Read the next sentence after he mentioned bowl games: "They may be in bowl games. They may be…you know, wherever they are in their status..." I don't think you can make any judgment at all about a pool of candidats limited to college coaches based on that statement.


Input: [Date] 44 weeks 1 day ago [Title] This probably wasn't intended [Body]

Output: This probably wasn't intended to be a diary, but I'll just point out that it seems unlikely to me that Harbaugh would be stupid enough to go to Miami given the acrimony in that front office. Have you read the backstory on Aponte? It doesn't sound like she's going anywhere, and if that's true, Harbaugh would be jumping from one bad situation to another. I'm not sure even Ross's money could paper that over.


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Great. Well, then the [Body]

Output: Great. Well, then the problem was either provider-specific (which AT&T denied) or it was an issue in certain pockets of the city.


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 1 day ago [Title] There was a problem with the [Body]

Output: There was a problem with the broadcast in the Atlanta area (and possibly others). They screwed up the regional coverage such that ABC and ESPN2 were both showing Texas A&M vs. SMU. This continued until some point in the 3rd quarter when the complaints must have finally bubbled up to the people who fix these sorts of things. At that point, the UM game became available on ESPN2.


Input: [Date] 1 year 21 weeks ago [Title] Did you just cut and paste [Body]

Output: Hello - I have returned to receive your upvotes...


Input: [Date] 1 year 36 weeks ago [Title] Year 3 under Rodriguez is [Body]

Output: Year 3 under Rodriguez is identical to Year 3 under Hoke. We have not improved. Also, we could easily be 4-7 right now. Some of those wins are functional losses. But tell me more about how great things are...


Input: [Date] 2 years 6 days ago [Title] It looks like Benoit will [Body]

Output: It looks like Benoit will continue to close (from Danny Knobler on Twitter - I can't embed for some reason): @DannyKnoblerCBS Tigers will keep Benoit as closer, use Veras along with Smyly in the 7th and 8th innings.


Input: [Date] 2 years 6 days ago [Title] I'm not certain he's going to [Body]

Output: I'm not certain he's going to close, but it will be nice to have some more help with late innings.

Output: Michigan 38 - ND 31


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Title] I'm guessing "DB" isn't [Body]

Output: I'm guessing "DB" isn't "wondering what happened to Beilein and the program in such a short time frame" because Dave Brandon is smart enough not to evaluate the status of a major program by only looking at a three week period in which nothing that could be construed by any reasonable person as "negativity breed[ing] negativity" took place.

Output: Spencer Hall is Orson. #yourmindblown


Input: [Date] 3 years 46 weeks ago [Title] Raoul: The article doesn't [Body]

Output: Raoul: The article doesn't say anything about where McGary places Duke among the final six. It simply says McGary's parents favor Duke.

Output: According to John Buccigross (and reports he's citing on twitter from foreign news agencies), Liv and Salei are confirmed dead.

Output: The twitter link is all there is. The link within just goes to his profile. http://twitter.com/#!/nbadraftnet/status/61153951835357184


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Title] No, I'm well aware of the [Body]

Output: No, I'm well aware of the last four years, thanks. As I said above, I just think this is overkill. I don't think that's that controversial of an opinion.


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Title] For what reason do they need [Body]

Output: For what reason do they need to travel around the country and "get the former players pumped up?" I'm not being a smartass. I really don't see why it's necessary. I'm not saying they need to spend all of their time watching film like has been suggested above.


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Title] But he has a lot of former [Body]

Output: But he has a lot of former players in his phone...or whatever...


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Title] I don't understand why this [Body]

Output: I don't understand why this is necessary or a valuable use of the coaches' time. I understand the perceived need to "mend fences" or whatever, but if this is true, it seems to be overkill.


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Title] What was the state of "the [Body]

Output: What was the state of "the tradition" when RR came in, or did you miss that part of the post in your rush to cryptically name drop?

Output: Let's just watch the spring game...


Input: [Date] 4 years 18 weeks ago [Title] Butler lost two starters and [Body]

Output: Butler lost two starters and they were pretty important. Gordon Heyward was their best player and a lottery pick in last year's NBA draft. Willie Veasley (who now plays in Japan) was a critical defender that, like Heyward, could guard almost anyone. Their struggles early this season were almost entirely related to defense. They've found a way to make up for those losses.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I'd feel worse for him staying on the Kings. Both franchises have been awful on the court, but the Sixers have a (very tenuous) path forward, which Nik could potentially be a part of. I don't see any evidence at all of such a path with Sacramento. [Title]

Output: I'd feel worse for him


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Yeah, I dunno, I'd probably decide on "better franchise" based on something along the lines of their respective chances of being late-round playoff teams in the next five or so years. By that metric, I'd go with the Sixers. Who could be all means continue being terrible. But given their assets -- lottery 5s and otherwise -- I think they def have a better chance of breaking through than do the Kings. [Title]

Output: Yeah, I dunno, I'd probably


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 12 hours ago [Body] The occurance of disasters is an excellent prompt to donate, and I also encourage everyone who can to do so. I'd also encourage everyone to do some research about where their money is going and how it's likely to be used. Specifically, I'd strongly encourage givers to resist the urge in give in such a way that their money is earmarked for Nepalese disaster relief. The bottleneck in providing immediate disaster relief is generally not money (as we saw in post-earthquake Haiti, post-Sandy NY, post-tsunami Japan, etc.), and making generalized donations now can help improve the responses available for future disasters. Along these lines, Felix Salmon, in the aftermath of Sandy, made what I thought was a strong case for giving to MSF rather than the Red Cross: "Which isn’t to say that donating money is a bad idea, when disasters hit. But it is to say that donating money to the Red Cross might not be the best use of your dollars. My advice is to give instead to MSF, or an organization like it, which is dealing with disasters every day of the year. That gave them the experience ability to respond quickly when disaster struck in the USA — and it also means that if your money would be put to more urgent use somewhere else, like Zimbabwe or Honduras or Chad, then that’s where it will go. We should spend as much money as is needed here — but don’t force the matter and earmark $117 million for Sandy relief, when no one knows whether even the Red Cross thinks it can sensibly spend that much. The Red Cross didn’t need to promise to spend all that money on Sandy and Sandy alone, but it made that promise anyway." [Title]

Output: The occurance of disasters is


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 4 days ago [Body] This point tends to get carried too far. No reasonable idea of usefulness would reduce to immediate and specific vocational preparation. Case in point: the training that a good student receives in a good philosophy department (cultivating, namely, the ability to think precisely and to manage complex ideas) can be of enormous value, both in a variety of employment contexts and in the general practice of citizenship. [Title]

Output: This point tends to get


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 4 days ago [Body] So in otherwords: you like the aspect of the uniform that looks very much like a million other uniforms Michigan basketball has worn, but you're not a huge fan of the glaring dick-cumberbun that's been vomited onto the shorts? To me, that would mean that I don't like the uniform. [Title]

Output: So in otherwords: you like


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I never played past high school, but I did manage to accumulate a fair amount of joint injury: a torn ACL/meniscus and four subsequent knee surgeries and continued wear left me unable to do anything ballistic with my legs at a young age, and I already have a fair amount of arthritis in that knee and same-side hip, both of which I assume will have to get replaced at some point going forward. I know that this pails in comparison to the joint injury/pain that a lot of guys go through, but I say it to establish the fact that I can appreciate the costs of joint damage. That said, I'm grateful that, aside from getting my bell rung a few times, I never accumulated much head trauma. I just see a qualitative difference between brain injury and bodily injury; bodily injury can alter your life, making it inconvenient and painful (in ways that I acknowledge can be pretty awful), but brain injury can fundamentally change who you are. And this is what I, and I assume others, find so frightening about the risk from concussions. I could see myself with full information trading a few years of playing a sport that I love for a future of moderate physical disability. I could never see myself making that trade for a future of middle-aged advanced dementia. [Title]

Output: Head injury vs. joint injury


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 4 days ago [Body] It's interesting to see this outcome after reading a really fascinating Grantland piece recently on advanced defensive metrics: http://grantland.com/features/department-of-defense/. Among other things, the article makes the case for Chris Paul as the best perimeter defender in the association. [Title]

Output: It's interesting to see this


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Honest, straight-faced answer: I would give zero fucks if I was largely clueless about where guys would end up before they committed somewhere. I would care more about losing scouting content, but that content doesn't seem to me to be dependent on the element of the business model in question. [Title]

Output: Honest, straight-faced answer: I would give zero

Input: [Date] 21 weeks 1 day ago [Body] With respect go the question of whether anyone would pay him a cent: possibly, though at the margin, certainly fewer. my broader, more tangential point: the world would not be a poorer place if some of these hypothetical guys were to empty their contact lists of 16-year-olds and go back to selling insurance or whatever. [Title]

Output: With respect go the question of whether anyone


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 1 day ago [Body] The 'certain definition of value' I referenced is the one that you presuppose: the one that centers entirely on the guy running the site. A piece of recruiting info also carries value for (at least some) of the people who absorb it, whether or not they pay. It also carries some (possibly negative) value for the players/coaches/families from which it was extracted. [Title]

Output: The 'certain definition of value' I referenced is


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Under a certain definition of 'value', yes. Also, I'm not entirely convinced by my own argument, but I'm much less convinced by your fact/opinion distinction, either with respect to its logical structure or its application to statements about what recruits will do. [Title]

Output: Under a certain definition of 'value', yes.Also,


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I dunno, man. I have a really hard time swallowing the notion of statements of fact about the world as property. Whatever the legal framework, items of prose seem to me to be qualitatively different from kernels of knowledge, and it seems to me that the latter can't properly 'belong' to anybody. Granted, there's a collective action problem here; if everybody gets info for free, then nobody gets paid to collect it, and everybody gets less recruiting bits. But I feel confident in saying that the socially optimal level of recruit pestering is way lower than what goes on now. [Title]

Output: I dunno, man. I have a really hard time swallowing


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 4 days ago [Body] I could be mistaken, but my impression of the twitterverse is that you could find a cure for cancer, and you'd still get a dozen people telling you that you're a vagina that rhymes with "punt". Which is not to say that York hasn't earned some vitriol. [Title]

Input: [Date] 24 weeks 12 hours ago [Body] The success of autodidacts doesn't mean that schools are useless. And I think we may have to agree to disagree on the interpretation of my experience; in my view, there is vanishingly little danger here, and the use of (very modest) university resources to encourage students to be less shitty than I was at times in undergrad seems reasonable. [Title]

Output: The success of autodidacts


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 12 hours ago [Body] So if I'm Roma, and I'm kind of bummed out that my ethnic identity is used as a shorthand for fucking people over (an association that has been used as a pretext for my ancestors' systematic extermination at various points in history), I should realize that I'm part of the problem. Got it. [Title]

Output: So if I'm Roma, and I'm kind


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] The thing with a simple "be considerate" message is that many people (and I would place my 20-year-old self firmly in this camp) have no idea that some of the things they're saying actually are deeply incosiderate. I would regularly call things retarded, and I would regularly admonish my friends to not be such fags when they wouldn't want to go out in the cold and such. I don't do this anymore, not because I'm such a better person now, but because I realize now that I was being demeaning and shitty. [Title]

Output: The thing with a simple "be


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] In requesting that people not say certain things because other people find them hurtful and demeaning, the university isn't providing a nudge to exercise self-control so much as it's letting people know that some of those things actually are hurtful and demeaning to others. I used to say a lot of things in friendly conversation that I now consider socially unacceptable and, with the exception of the occcasional slip up, rarely use. It's not because I'm so much more in possession of myself, but because I now realize in ways that I didn't before that I was kind of being an asshole. [Title]

Output: Self-control vs. understanding of context


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 14 hours ago [Body] There is an enormous gap between 1) censoring ideas, and 2) requesting that people be civil to each other. The notion that my ability to formulate and openly argue for ideas is somehow compromised because Big Brother has asked that I not call anyone a fag is...not particularly compelling. [Title]

Output: Free thought


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 14 hours ago [Body] Belle Waring: "98% of what people angrily claim is “Political Correctness” is just manners. Politeness. If something I were saying at a dinner party offended another guest and my host explained why, I would stop saying that thing, in all likelihood. I myself used to call things “retarded” all the time when I was a kid, and I carried it into adulthood, and then people on the internet made it clear that they found this hurtful and demeaning, so I stopped. I explained to my children, I have a left-over bad habit in that I will occasionally call something retarded and it’s not an appropriate thing to say; will you please correct me when I do it? Thinking about what I wanted my children to say helped me here. Likewise, although I don’t know that I said anything particularly unpleasant about it ever, I was comparatively ignorant about issues facing trans people until some years back. Does this make me angry because the word “cisgender” exists now? No, because I’m not an asshole." [Title]

Input: [Date] 24 weeks 4 days ago [Body] I'd actually disagree about Westwood village being awesome. It's kind of like a scaled-up South U, except with more douchebags in Maseratis and 50-year-olds with plastic faces. Other things of note: CTools is a lot better than UCLA's course computing website, and people get ticketed for jaywalking on campus all the time, which totally sucks. Let the negative recruiting commence! [Title]

Input: [Date] 25 weeks 57 min ago [Body] As a current UCLA grad student, that is absolutely true. I went to the Oregon game this year, and most of the stadium seemed to not completely realize that a football game was happening. The campus in general seems pretty detached from football. That said, the university is not without amenities... [Title]

Input: [Date] 25 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] Article is paywalled, but you can get the gist from the abstract: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pam.20287/abstract Auto insurance 'redlining' is an empirically verifiable thing. To your initial point: this isn't to say that insurance companies are extracting excess profits from people in affected neighborhoods. But it does demonstrate that a lot of (potential) drivers take a huge hit on premiums through no fault of their own. [Title]

Input: [Date] 26 weeks 14 hours ago [Body] This raises an interesting point over what counts as "political". I'm assuming that you're objecting to the comments on race and racism because they cross the no-politics line. But I'd argue that discussing the stability of Grosse Pointe's elite status without acknowledging that the form of segregation from which it draws its status represents one of the biggest moral failings of 20th Century America is, at the very least, a tad political.

Input: [Date] 26 weeks 6 days ago [Body] The point is that "grown men", as used in the initial comment, refers to the stage of life development at which dudes are likely to be not so into being led around on a string. Yes, 22yos are often asked to bear tremendous military burdens, and we should all solemnly introduce this point in as many threads as possible. But the relevant sense of "grown men" has a lot more to do with not getting care packages from mom, making solo trips to Bed, Bath and Beyond, etc. [Title]

Output: I don't follow wrestling as much as I should. I wrestled in high school and went to states my senior year and was there at The Palace to see Justin Zeerip win his last match to stay undefeated in high school.

Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Title] Sat next to Huyge at Big Chill [Body]

Output: We went to high school together, but I don't see him around often. He said no one was really concentrating on the coaching situation. He was just pumped to be in pads again on the field and can't wait until the team gets to Florida. He sounded most excited about the Oakleys. Among other things we discussed: his excitement at some big snowbank on the field and his subsequent disappointment that he couldn't go jump in it, and his insatiable hunger for some curly fries as soon as he saw that mascot

Input: [Date] 3 years 20 weeks ago [Title] In 1993 [Body]

Output: In 1993 I was in basic training in South Carolina. My drill was a UNC fan and he knew I was a Michigan fan. The morning after the game he comes in to the barracks and says, “Private lexgoblue, your boys lost, AND they can’t count. DROP!” I had no idea what he was talking about. I did so many pushups that I lost count (and still had to go do muscle failure PT). I did not see what really happened and why I got smoked until a few months later. When I was accepted into Michigan a few years after that, this was one of the first things that popped into my head. Chris Webber…you got me smoked…sigh.


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Title] What about the gambling aspect? [Body]

Output: The basketball tournament also has a large gambling history associated with it, so people who would never watch a college basketball game are filling out their brackets and tuning in. Not all the bets are for money either (sadly my wife has bragging rights this year). Would a four team football playoff (or eight) generate even close to this kind of attention?

Output: During a lesson on mitosis, I had a student ask me if a girl could get pregnant through anal sex...his cousin, who was also in my class, then proceeded to ask him if he had eggs up his ass. Hell, even I had to laugh at that one.

Input: [Date] 4 years 38 weeks ago [Title] My Concern [Body]

Output: Emotion. Coming off of such a huge emotional game, I do worry about the team's emotional level not just for the game but also during the practices this week. This is when the coaches and team leaders need to step up and keep the young players focused. I wouldn't be surprised to see M come out a little flat at the start of the game, but I fully expect this team to find their focus and relentlessly score on Purdue.

Output: "Position Swap" sounds like something you'd find late night on Cinemax.


Input: [Date] 4 years 45 weeks ago [Title] Braylon Conundrum [Body]

Output: I remember two distinct things about Braylon on campus: 1. When he was with the track team, he always parked his SUV on the sidewalk just outside the indoor track. This to me was an "athlete of privilege" thing that he was allowed to get away with just like other high profile athletes. 2. He took his time to sign a small stack of programs for me that I gave out to inner-city high school kids. It was an amazing gesture. I'm conflicted about him.

Output: My wife was a two time All American on the UM track team. I have all kinds of funny stories about her, but I would like to stay married.


Input: [Date] 5 years 15 weeks ago [Title] How about the Market Square [Body]

Output: My seething rage after Michigan's last Alamo Bowl appearance has clouded my memory (stupid Sun Belt officials) but I seem to remember having some fun at the Market Square (El Mercado). It's about 10ish blocks from the riverwalk, but not as crowded. Some of the stores were selling junk but not all. Great food there as well.


Input: [Date] 5 years 17 weeks ago [Title] I prefer Woodford as well [Body]

Output: I have a bottle at home with my name engraved on it (gift from the in-laws). Once in awhile I like to say, "There's a bottle of bourbon at home with my name on it!"

Output: The Victor (and just call him Victor)


Input: [Date] 5 years 20 weeks ago [Title] In Lexington [Body]

Output: I have been in Lexington for almost two years. Last year we had some furniture delivered to our house and I started talking to the delivery guys about UK basketball. They both said they don't care if there are any violations as long as UK wins a national championship. MANY people here think the same way.


Input: [Date] 47 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Who the fuck is Biff from Chi Phi? Biff Tannen? It's a criminal matter. If this happened to say, corporation X where the CEO and Board were implicated in a crime, and the Attorney General said "corporation X must close it business" why should Molly in marketing, who had nothing to do with this suffer the consequences? Just like PSU's right tackel shouldn't have to bear the consequences of others. [Title]

Output: Who the fuck is Biff from Chi


Input: [Date] 47 weeks 1 day ago [Body] This was a criminal matter, not an NCAA matter. The NCAA overstepped their bounds and essentially forced the penalty without due process. [Title]

Output: This was a criminal matter,


Input: [Date] 47 weeks 1 day ago [Body] This is a beyond stupid perspective. Everyone involved is in jail, facing jail, fines or dead. Meanwhile the student athletes, fans and students get penalized. Sanctions should never have been levied against innocents. [Title]

Output: This is a beyond stupid


Input: [Date] 1 year 24 weeks ago [Body] What are you talking about? Every game is already on TV. This is to make people like my parents, who would never watch a game, pay a quarter to get BTN on their local cable packages. [Title]

Output: What are you talking about?


Input: [Date] 1 year 24 weeks ago [Body] They dilute the product on the field, have zero fanbase and contribute nothing to football or basketball, the ONLY sports that matter. It's a move motivated by greed to get cable packages on local networks. It's a transparent money grab that's insulting to every existing member of the conference. [Title]

Output: This is the stupidest move ever.

Output: "If it's not a revenue


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] I need courses in reading comprehension and college football histroy because I forgot about the minor NCAA violations Kiffin committed during his one year at Tenneessee. Thanks for the advice. Keep up with the name calling, it's a good way to come out on top of mature arguments. Under your rule, we should all get points on our license because of Aldon Smith. We should pay penalities on our investments because of Madoff. For the millionth time, the NCAA penalized PSU without due process. No investigation. No hearing. It's like a dictatorship. [Title]

Output: I need courses in reading


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] Isn't the entire Penn State administration (former President / AD) facing jail time and massive fines as a result? Not to mention life in prison for the actual offender. Why not throw the current players in jail as well? How about Paterno's corpse? Let's just blow the whole town up while we're at it!!! Also you're equating the Reggie Bush scandal with Sandusky? Kind of sick on your end. And I don't think Kiffin had anything to do with that, I think it was just Carroll or some boosters. Collateral damage here isn't fair to the players. [Title]

Output: Isn't the entire Penn State


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] The players are the innocent bystanders. This was an institutional / administrational failure on the part of Penn State, not a player failure. Since then, they've clean housed and instituted checks to ensure failure does not repeat and paid penalities. So why should all personnel currently on board with the school, none of whom that had anything to do with Sandusky, receive his penalties? It makes no sense. Again, the NCAA did not follow their own protocols. They handed penalties without due process. They make up the rules as they go along. [Title]

Output: yes


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] Do you really think that termination, show cause penalties and (I guess in this case) jail time isn't enough of a deterrent? To end the cycle of cheating, you severely punish those at fault, not those that had nothing to do with the offense. [Title]


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] So if it were up to you, not only should the people held responsible for crimes get punished, but innocent bystanders should be punished as well. Hopefully you never get into a position of power. [Title]

Output: So


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] Frankly, the NCAA (and Delany) overstepped their own bounds with the sanctions. They didn't conduct their own investigation, relied solely on the Freeh report and threatened the new administration that had nothing to do with the crimes of Sandusky. No one affiliated with the crimes are currently at PSU. Why should the current administration be at fault. Isn't jail time and termination for those accountable enough? [Title]

Output: The remainder of the sanctions should be overturned


Input: [Date] 1 year 45 weeks ago [Body] Wasn't aware of the break issue, but that still doesn't make it right. I don't believe they have special packages for the students for the major games. It's not like all these games are noon on Saturday. There are midweek night games, many of which against crap teams, that cut into other stuff. When I was a student, it was hard enough to make all the games, much less my other commitments. Brandon's concerned about getting the arena crowded for two things: 1) sales of concessions, merchandise, etc. and 2) apperances on tv. He could not care less about the individual. [Title]

Output: Wasn't aware of the break issue


Input: [Date] 1 year 45 weeks ago [Body] Sometimes there are other commitments (studying?) that need to be made rather than seeing Michigan wax the floor with SC State, UMass-Lowell, Concordia, Wayne State, Coppin State, Houston Baptist and Holy Cross. Also, there are some games during the break period when students aren't in town. There's a way to fudge these numbers to justify milking every cent out of the student body. If you buy a ticket to the game, it's up to the buyer to attend, not the seller. [Title]

Output: 53.9%


Input: [Date] 1 year 48 weeks ago [Body] That's like saying turkey sandwiches are statistically the best sandwiches.... [Title]

Output: That's like saying turkey


Input: [Date] 1 year 48 weeks ago [Body] I don't get your comment. My point was that the pro-style will typically work moreso than the spread. That said, If you want to incorporate spread tactics in the pro style, there's a time and a place. But to think that the most successful offenses shouldn't be one big RichRod / NW jet, spread offense, is totally ignorant. [Title]

Output: I don't get your comment. My


Input: [Date] 1 year 48 weeks ago [Body] Nope, I don't believe I did. Listen, you can have spread concepts in a pro style attack (zone read on a short down to go play, spread the field in a red zone situation, etc.). Even the Patriots run that. But at the end of the day, it really does fall on execution, sound offensive line play and a QB that doesn't suck for an offensive team to be successful. [Title]

Output: Nope, I don't believe I


Input: [Date] 1 year 48 weeks ago [Body] So you're saying Michigan doesn't have the talent comparable to a Northwestern? So they need to resort to quick snaps, no huddles, to beat them? [Title]

Output: So you're saying Michigan


Input: [Date] 1 year 48 weeks ago [Body] Neg bang away [Title]

Output: Double post


Input: [Date] 1 year 48 weeks ago [Body] Last check Bama uses the huddle and that seems to be working out well for them. Stanford uses the huddle and that seems to be working out well for them. I think too much emphasis is placed on huddle, non-huddle, pace, etc. The best teams are the ones with the best talent and their ability to execute, not the ones that solely rely on a gimmicky type offense. Defenses are quick to adjust...just look at the "wildcat." [Title]

Output: Last Check

Input: [Date] 2 years 15 weeks ago [Body] Replay slows the end of game down, it's used as a crutch and an excuse by the officials, and it almost never gets the right call anyway. [Title]

Output: Eliminate Replay


Input: [Date] 2 years 23 weeks ago [Body] Have idiot Delany and the greedy conference presidents ever considered staying at 12? They're diluting the product and profits while eliminating any identity this conference had. They can spew all this leaders and legends BS, but these are disgusting unethical, greedy people. [Title]

Output: Have idiot Delany and the greedy conference presidents


Input: [Date] 2 years 25 weeks ago [Body] Gus has been terrible over the past year. Perhaps it was his meteoric rise, but he constantly messes up names, doesn't understand game theory, and talks too much. He now yells at total nonsense. He's brutal. I'll take Nantz's wine and cheese club announcing over Gus. At least he gets the names right and understands time and score. The color person I like is Dan Dakich. Funny, smart and he gets the sport. [Title]

Output: Gus Johnson


Input: [Date] 2 years 37 weeks ago [Body] This has zero to do with michigan academics and a sense of arrogance. Outside of my 4 years at michigan, i've lived in nyc pretty much my whole life. No one has ever talked about rutgers. They are a bad fit. They cant sell out their 48,000 seat stadium. It's a mid major program. They dont belong in the B1G. It's fine the way it is. [Title]

Output: No


Input: [Date] 2 years 37 weeks ago [Body] No one in NYC cares about Rutgers. They don't move the needle, not even a fraction. NYC is and will always be a pro sports city. The B1G does not need another Minnesota in terms of on-field performance in fooball and basketball. We already have a Minnesota. On top of that, everytime Michigan plays Rutgers or Maryland, they play Wisconsin or Penn State one less time. Since ND doesn't want to be in its natural footprint, the B1G is perfect the way it is with the addition of Nebraska. We should be extremely pissed if Delany pulls this stunt. [Title]

Output: No one cares about Rutgers

Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] at least he acknowledges this poll as unscientific. [Title]

Output: I will say


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] Brian has a platform to express his opinions and views on a subject matter and then uses the same platform to poll his readers. This skews the readers feelings and makes them vote differently. It's no different if I gave a 3,000 word essay arguing ice cream was better than pizza, and then polling people on what they prefer, ice cream would get a more favorable score. This poll should be trashed. [Title]

Output: This is a highly unscientic poll...


Input: [Date] 3 years 27 weeks ago [Body] Can Brian get his facts straight and preface every post he writes "if it's not Michigan, it's evil". Joe Pa was not a child rape enabler. He fucked up and should've done more as he said, but please, he didn't open the shower curtain to Sandusky's victims so to speak. The block quote totally misquotes him as well. With the initial portion directed towards the victims and the last two sentences addressed towards his supporters standing on his front porch. Brian horribly manipulates the quote and loses credibility and integrity in my book. (I'm sure he'll lose sleep over this). Finally, no reference of the 1000s of lives and minds he cultivated to become great members of society. As if he did nothing other than letting children get raped. This is one of Brian's worst written pieces ever. Shame on him. [Title]

Output: On this topic


Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Title] The way I read the situation [Body]

Output: The way I read the situation was we told him that in order to play again he'd have to sit for at least six months. As an uncommon senior that would likely be the death knell of his playing career. He's transferring to Texas tech where he has to sit for a year anyway. I'm not sure that the two schools doctors were actually in disagreement. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Title] Are you high? I'm not sure [Body]

Output: Are you high? I'm not sure that I've ever seen a player carry a team as much as Denard did for three straight years. Without him the dumpster fire would have been a dumpster inferno. I thought you people would shut up after the disaster that our offense became as soon as Denard left.

Input: [Date] 13 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I know the tradition around [Body]

Output: I know the tradition around here is to be cynical and pessimistic, but it's getting hard not to feel a little hopeful about all this. The events of this week taken independently wouldn't mean all that much, but taken together could present a narrative. Time will tell! Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad

Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Title] How do you figure that he [Body]

Output: How do you figure that he almost definitely raped a girl? What evidence do you have that points to that? Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 1 hour ago [Title] I think my major issue with [Body]

Output: I think my major issue with this is that people go to university to learn to become the person they are, they find their own views. If we start banning things because people are discomforted by them, it's a slippery slope to only having one accepted viewpoint. I haven't seen the movie, but I highly doubt it's "The Birth of a Nation: Part Two". I think if you don't like something, by all means speak out against it and say why you find it wrong. I draw the line when it comes to surpressing what you dislike. As far as the safety issue goes, I find it to be overblown. Racist assholes are going to be racist assholes, this movie is not going to change that for better or worse. Especially on a progressive campus like U of M.


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 2 hours ago [Title] I totally understand where [Body]

Output: I totally understand where you're coming from, and typically and ideally that's how I try to approach things as well. I just have seen people like her in action enough to know it's primarily about attention and I can't take the hypocrisy behind it seriously. I'm definitely a little biased from past experiences, but I don't think my preconcieved notions will end up being incorrect on this one.


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 2 hours ago [Title] It has nothing to do with [Body]

Output: It has nothing to do with American Sniper, but it does relate to the situation. If this girl is throwing pork at a fellow Muslims door, I think it calls her motivations and integrity into question. Considering that she is primarily behind this blowing up, I find it to be relevant.


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 2 hours ago [Title] I think the point is that the [Body]

Output: I think the point is that the girl concrned about anti-muslim sentiment caused by the film, also allegedly threw hot dogs and eggs at Mahmoods door. It takes away a bit of credibility.


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 2 hours ago [Title] That would've been the way to [Body]

Output: That would've been the way to do it, if the concern was actually about this film being showed. Unfortunately, as you pointed out, the entire point behind this is that it fits a political narrative.


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 5 days ago [Title] The problem is the snowflake [Body]

Output: The problem is the snowflake attitude has become prevelent at a faculty level at schools around the country. It's where a lot of the kids are getting it from.

Output: It's a shame too, because their app is the best one to keep track of scores I think. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad

Input: [Date] 17 weeks 1 hour ago [Title] Lundardi had as as a one seed [Body]

Output: Lundardi had us as a one seed this time last year. Take his predictions with a giant grain of salt.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 5 hours ago [Title] I'm not sure exaggerated it [Body]

Output: I'm not sure exaggerated it is. He said that he was definitely going to an Adidas school. Not much room for interpretation there, unless he was lying. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 5 hours ago [Title] You are so wrong it hurts. He [Body]

Output: You are so wrong it hurts. He was the only person making anything happen at the beginning of the year because his supporting cast hadn't developed yet. I really hope Caris sticks around next year so you get to see how wrong you are. Not that you'll acknowledge it. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 5 hours ago [Title] If he's medical'd, he is done [Body]

Output: If he's medical'd, he is done playing basketball at Michigan. Not allowed to come back after that. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 5 hours ago [Title] I'd prefer Caris too, but [Body]

Output: I'd prefer Caris too, but c'mon man. Putting players into the NBA most definitely is good for Michigan hoops. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 12 hours ago [Title] Given the circumstances of [Body]

Output: Given the circumstances of the game, it being the National Championship and all, it most certainly was a once-in-a-season bad call.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Yep, same old BS. Claiming [Body]

Output: Yep, same old BS. Claiming that Morris was "Milking" the university for his scholarship.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Well, good thing that it's [Body]

Output: Well, good thing that it's not up to you and that when we offer a scholarship it's for better or worse. Im sure you know how hard he works in practice and in the classroom for that scholarship. Flat out saying he's milking the university for a scholarship is real prick move. About expected from you at this point, though. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad

Output: You knew a discussion even marginally rooted in race was going to bring in the lowest common denominater.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Nobody brought up the [Body]

Output: Nobody brought up the legality. This is a conversation about being a decent human being.

Input: [Date] 17 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I think if basketball doesn't [Body]

Output: I think if basketball doesn't work out for Dekker, he could have a great career as a state trooper. The guy has the look down.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 3 days ago [Title] If a post on a message board [Body]

Output: If a post on a message board bothers you, maybe you should be taking a break. (this isn't for the post above me, the post I was responding to apparently only shows up on mobile.) Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 3 days ago [Title] There's money in this, [Body]

Output: There's money in this, believe it or not. In the biggest tournament ever in the genre, the winning five person team took home $5MM.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 3 days ago [Title] They're not hard, agreed. But [Body]

Output: They're not hard, agreed. But the community around them typically demands that people jump in and be immediately proficient. I think that's where a lot of the nervousness comes from. I would also say, as far as mechanics go, sure they're not difficult. As far as overall strategy, knowing when to push, when to retreat, they can be pretty complicated and the only way you learn is through experience.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Try out Blizzards attempt at [Body]

Output: Try out Blizzards attempt at MOBAs when it comes out. I've been in the Heroes of the Storm beta and the learning curve is way less steep and games last about 20min.
