Input: [Date] 43 weeks 3 days ago [Title] The reality of the situation [Body]

Output: The reality of the situation is that no school pulls coaches from those types of positions. For some reason people always want to assume that people will just jump ship for the slightest improvement in "prestige" but it rarely happens. Name the last time a coach left a top 25 type program for another top 25 type program (aside from Kiffin to USC and I'll grant you Sarkesian to USC if that counts).


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] Yeah thank god Belein's teams have, ya know, beaten a few good teams in his time here... And oh hey they competed with some elite teams as well. Thank God we're not getting blown out by 20 every single game [Title]

Output: Yeah thank god Belein's teams

Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] It's funny because I'd be willing to bet (if you even follow basketball which is questionable) that you were one of the people last year saying "man wait until darius morris gets older he will be so good." Also, you should inform Brian of your logic considering that he has been saying all basketball season that he doesn't expect much from the team because they have only 1 junior and 0 seniors starting. [Title]

Output: It's funny because I'd be


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] yep playing cornerback is more complex than playing point guard you're right. [Title]

Output: yep playing cornerback is


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] And on second thought, are you really trying to argue that playing corner back isn't as confusing as playing point guard? Point guard is an unbelievably complex position, more complex than corner back for sure. Not that this is even relevant because of my previous response, but for the love of God stop making up pure nonsense to defend your argument. I don't really care if you feel the need to argue this basketball/football claim; if you want to dispute something go ahead and dispute what I said about Brady Hoke being able to field a competitive team at SDSU in year 2 [Title]

Output: And on second thought, are


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] What the hell does physicality have to do with age when you're talking about the difference between 19 and 20? If anything the age argument can be used to say that the younger players don't have as much experience and therefore decision making ability. And what do you say to the fact that Brady Hoke competed with both #2 or 3 TCU and Missouri in his 2nd year at San Diego freaking State? He had essentially 0 talent in his first year taking over the 2-10 SDSU team, and any talent he brought in was no older than a true sophomore, and most were true freshmen.... Yet he was able to be competitive with strong teams. Quit using this backdoor garbage, made up logic to defend Rich Rod when anyone with a brain (i.e. a majority of college football followers) can admit that he didn't get it done here. [Title]

Output: What the hell does


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] yeah that young michigan basketball team sure looked horrendous vs kansas on sunday.... oh wait, they competed?! Based on Rich Rod apologists I thought it was impossible for a team with sophomores and freshmen to compete with a ranked (let alone #3) team. [Title]

Output: yeah that young michigan

Output: Are you honestly going to say


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] I see where you're going with this metaphor... If Rich Rod is the new husband and the upset fans are 'insufferable brats', does that make the 6 blowouts this year the equivalent of the new husband humiliating the stepchildren in public 6 times? [Title]

Output: I see where you're going with


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] If the only way you are able to gauge the progress of a team is simply by the number of wins then you must not watch a lot of football... [Title]

Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] There comes a time in life when you need to just admit you are wrong. If Beamer had never beaten a ranked team at Va Tech, wasn't in a BCS bowl, had been beaten this bad 6 times in the same season, and had a losing record at Va Tech, then you may have a semblance of a point with your sarcasm... But none of that is true and you are making a fool of yourself. Cut your losses just like Michigan will do with RR this week. [Title]

Output: Dude...


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] Brilliant. The user name I made 2 years ago is clearly a reflection of me and my football knowledge. If I could change my user name I would change it to Welcome_Home_Harbaugh [Title]

Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] Good one. I'll expect you to be calling into MSNBC and Fox News the week before the upcoming presidential election and going off on them for speculating and discussing a week before the decision is made. Don't lose any sleep when Rodriguez gets fired next week. [Title]

Output: Good one. I'll expect you


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] If you can watch this team and truly believe they are 1 year away from a big ten championship game, you need to take the iv of blue kool-aid out of your arm... Ridiculous assertion [Title]

Output: If you can watch this team


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] What the hell else are you going to "clutter the board" with? "OT- What kind of beer are you drinking tonight? LOL" And how is there no point in speculating when the decision is in a week... Do you get upset when people speculate about the presidential election one week before the actual election? My God is that an awful argument. When the decision is near is when you're supposed to speculate the most. Bottom line, you're a joke dude. Quit trying to regulate mgoblog as if it belongs to you or something [Title]

Output: What the hell else are you


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] The offense is so "great"... Defense comes out and gets a big stop, big punt return, offense goes 3 and out. Give me a break. [Title]

Output: The offense is so "great"...


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] So what? It's a freaking message board what do you think is going to be posted? If you don't want to talk about it then don't comment, but so long as people are debating it (which is fine) the talk will continue on the boards. [Title]

Output: So what? It's a freaking


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] That's a ridiculous request! Why would you think it's acceptable to discuss a potential coaching change for the Michigan Wolverines football team after their bowl game? Do you think thats what message boards are for? There should be no posts on this Michigan Blog regarding the overwhelming possibility of a coaching change. We will ignore it. [Title]

Output: That's a ridiculous request!


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] Their jobs are not on the line; the decision has already been made. DB already has a coach lined up or he has decided to keep RR. You don't start a coaching search in January, so if he was going to be fired it wouldn't have anything to do with the Miss St. game. [Title]

Output: Their jobs are not on the


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] Like Brian said, you don't start a coaching search on January 2nd. If Rich Rod is going to be fired the decision has already been made. If Rich Rod is going to stay it is because DB already decided on it based on what he has done thus far; it won't be because the team performs better than Miss St in the Gator Bowl. [Title]

Output: Like Brian said, you don't


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] Dude step away from the kool-aid... wow. Your last statement is the most annoying argument of all. Just because Rich Rod turned Michigan into a rebuilding project because he is so in love with his "scheme", doesn't mean Harbaugh would do the same. Harbaugh is a good football coach, not a scheme coach. He would take the talent he has and make the most of it, and I'd be willing to bet that our turnover margin would improve drastically under Harbaugh after the past 3 years of turnover-mania. RR couldn't find a way to make Mallet, Minor, and others fit into his offense, but I guarantee you Harbaugh would/will fit Denard into his. [Title]

Output: Dude step away from the


Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Body] 8-5 is pretty damn good at Stanford given their stringent academic standards and lack of resources/fan interest. At Michigan, 8-5 in your third year is not nearly as impressive. Also, Harbaugh only lost 1 game by double digits (10 pt loss) that year. 10 points was Rich Rod's closest loss. Harbaugh's 5 losses were by a combined 32 points, Rich Rod's are by a combined 87 points, and it would be worse if opponents chose to run up the score. Harbaugh also beat a very strong Oregon team that year and a 9-4 USC team. He also beat a very good USC team in his 1st year. Harbaugh beat more quality teams in his 1st year than Rich Rod has in 3 years, had far less embarrassing losses each year, and had an equal record in his 3rd year, all while at a program where it is MUCH more difficult to build a good team. Can people like you please, for the love of God, stop pretending what Harbaugh did at Stanford is the equivalent of what Rich Rod has done at Michigan... It's ridiculous [Title]

Output: 8-5 is pretty damn good at


Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Body] 1) 8-5 in your third year isn't exactly awe-inspiring. Not terrible, but not good either. 2) 3 losses to 11-1 teams: He had three 11-1 teams on his schedule, and got absolutely crushed by all of them, how is that supposed to be a selling point for him to stay? Not to mention MSU is the most fraudulent 11-1 team in a long long time. There are a large number of teams with lesser records, including 9-3 Alabama, who are much better than 11-1 MSU. 3) The "top 10 offense" has already been covered. Wisconsin, Ohio State, MSU, Penn St, and Iowa all shut down the offense until the game was essentially over. The offense hung a ton of points on awful teams, and got shut down by the above average ones. Was the offense good? Yes. Top 10 in the country? No. 4) How does Denard even factor into this? Sure he is a great player; is bringing in a great player to a program that is easy to recruit at supposed to be something spectacular? And overall on the recruiting front Rich Rod has actually been quite sub-par. Rethink whether or not you had to throw that out there. [Title]

Output: 1) 8-5 in your third year


Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Body] well this was a good benchmark game and we got absolutely embarrassed, so i don't know what you expect people's reaction to be... and anyone who thought we were going to be an ncaa tournament team because of the 1st 12 games is an absolute moron. [Title]

Output: well this was a good


Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Body] Is beating ND (19-17 record in the past 3 years) 2 out of 3 times supposed to come anywhere near making up for going 0-6 vs OSU and MSU? Especially considering we lost those 6 games by a total of 110 points... I don't care about him beating notre dame when we have been losing to msu and osu every game by an average of 3 touchdowns for the past 3 years. Since you don't seem to get it... that (among other things) is why I want him fired. [Title]

Output: Is beating ND (19-17 record


Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Body] You didn't actually counter one thing he said in his argument. "mgobubble" was a great way of describing your (and many others on this blog's) disillusionment, hilarious. If you think that there is so much talk about his job security because "he's not a michigan man rabble rabble", and not because he is 0-13 against B10 teams with a winning record, or got blown out by double digits in 5 games in his third year, then you should honestly stop following football. The hell with whether he "gets our rivalries" or not, just stop getting blown out in them. All you did in your post was 1) make up your own reasons for why people want RR to be fired (reasons that aren't even the true issues that people are complaining about) and then 2) disprove your own made up reasoning and fail to address anything the fire-RR advocator said. I assure you it is not because he isn't a michigan man, or how he feels about the rivalries, it is because he has turned the program into a national laughing stock for the past 3 years. You just don't realize it because the only football talk you are ever exposed to is the mgobubble. EDIT: Dahblue mentioned wins and losses as an issue, then addressed recruiting also, and you tried to call him out for it. Do you realize that RR has been awful in both? Just because dahblue is addressing multiple issues that RR has, doesn't mean that he is contradicting himself. Your argument comprehension skills are incredibly awful... yikes. [Title]

Output: You didn't actually counter


Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Body] stupid arguments like saying that because denard improved that the program/team improved.... [Title]

Output: stupid arguments like saying


Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Body] Wow... It's about TEAM progress. This year's team went 7-5 while last years went 5-7... the difference? Purdue was fielding almost all 2nd and 3rd stringers, which gave us one extra win. Illinois didn't have Juice WIlliams, who showed last year vs us that he clearly would have been the difference in a 3OT game. In other games, we got beaten far worse by Mich St, far worse by Iowa, far worse by OSU, and we got beat about equally bad by a PSU team that was nowhere near the level of last yr's PSU team. For the love of God can we stop acting like this team performed oodles better than the 2009 team because they won 2 more games? Look at the actual body of work and how the games actually transpired. And stop pretending it is irrational to think that RR should be fired. Every single person who follows college football closely (aside from maybe some of the ppl on this blog) would laugh in your face if they heard you talk as if firing Rich Rod isn't a decent option. It makes you sound like an idiot. [Title]

Output: Wow... It's about TEAM


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Title] Worst Christmas ever [Body]

Output: When I heard it was Hoke, I had that feeling of utter disappointment similar to when you think your getting a great present and you get socks and underwear. Based on Brandon's comments about pay and defense I expected a proven top quality coach. Clearly Brandon only cares about the coach being a Michigan Man (Bo man). I hope Hoke is successful because there are no other Michigan Men after him. I am most upset with the way RR was treated. I realize he made a lot of mistakes, but to give him only three years is not classy and not in the Michigan Man way. Regardless of what Brandon wants we should have honored the contract we gave him (6yrs.) especially since he was asked to reinvent the program. Just as DB said that football runs Michigan athletics, this hire will decide his success. The lights, Alabama, etc. won't mean anything if we have another losing season or two and don't win the Big Ten within 3 years. Hoke's first tell will be if he can win back some of the recruits that were high on Michigan. We should be able to get back into it with the defensive recruits. I am beginning to think that Dave Brandon does not realize that running an athletics program is not like running a business. I think he thought he could through money at coaches and they would come (which is the case in corporate), but after you fire the previous hire at 3 years, who would want to leave a safe and successful program for what we were offering. I don't think many successful coaches would take that gig.


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Title] Watch the pay package [Body]

Output: If the annual salary is ridiculously high, then Hoke probably was plan A and Brandon overpaid. Perhaps on purpose.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Don't think RRod will sign 2 yr extension [Body]

Output: He still has 3 years on his original contract.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] posted from iPhone [Body]

Output: I can't imagine another program taking RR and all his defensive assistants after the last two years at M. Their resumes don't look real appealing right now.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] If I was Denard I would leave [Body]

Output: If i was Denard and Harbaugh is the coach, I would leave and head to a spread program, burn my redshirt and then have two years to perform. His stock is crazy high, he has proven he can be a QB, and there is little chance Harbaugh uses him the same way.


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Title] Offensive tempo [Body]

Output: It seems to me that our offense is more successful when running at a very fast tempo. This was the case in early games and when down by multiples in the second half. I have felt the offense is a little slow on the first couple possessions. I think if this offense scores early to start it can hurt the morale of opposing defenses, whereas a three and out to start strengthens their morale.


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Title] Fake field goal [Body]

Output: I don't think Penn State was backing off when they faked the field goal late in the game. Joe Pa did not want Denard on the field.


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Title] McGloin is a RS Soph [Body]

Output: 2.5 years of sitting the bench to learn the offense and develop can mean a lot. Also, he is a former walk-on, so JoePa saw enough to award a scholarship.


Input: [Date] 4 years 41 weeks ago [Title] Receiver sounds better [Body]

Output: I'd rather rather see Denard get a quick pass as a receiver where he could take off or pass it forward as the CBs pull up to tackle. I would think most CBs would give him a big cushion on the LOS.


Input: [Date] 4 years 41 weeks ago [Title] Home vs. Away [Body]

Output: If Alabama is the home team, does that mean their season ticket holders will get most of the tickets?


Input: [Date] 4 years 41 weeks ago [Title] posted from iPhone [Body]

Output: If stipends were being paid it would reduce one of the competitive advantages Michigan has in recruiting. The value of a Michigan degree is far greater than the value of degrees from other institutions because of the quality of education, access to alumni, and even starting salaries upon graduation. If other universities could compensate by paying recruits then the value would equalize over time.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day 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 1 day 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 1 day 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 1 day 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.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Stanford? The Cardinal seems [Body]

Output: Stanford? The Cardinal seems like a better comparison to Northwestern, except way more successful. Hell, their Notre Dame might just be Notre Dame. Definitely not Boise State. Say what you will about ND - they DO have both academic and football clout and tradition. For the sake of comparison, Boise State is more like a non-redneck West Virginia.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] and of course I missed the 'sail' part of that. [Body]

Output: and of course I missed the 'sail' part of that. yeah, going to the game on a boat is awesome, but the weather concerns still remain.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] It's high quality, but a) its on parking lots - I [Body]

Output: It's high quality, but a) its on parking lots - I miss the golf course and b) the weather often makes gameday miserable - few things worse than driving rain and swirling winds in 40-degree weather.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] As a current Seattle resident, and masters student [Body]

Output: As a current Seattle resident, and masters student at UW, the announcement of the home and home was cause for celebration, even if I do have to wait over half a decade. While Husky Stadium is loud as fuck and has perhaps the best view in college football, its nowhere as awe-inspiring as walking into Michigan stadium for a big game. I'm dying to show off the Big House to friends I've made locally once 2021 rolls around. One reason why we enjoy the UW series is that they're basically us, with the M flipped and slightly darker shades of maize and blue (gold and purple), and not quite as much tradition. It's a large research university in a liberal city that prides itself on tradition. They even have the same dynamic with their local rivals. Wazzou is their Sparty - they even have a term called 'Cougin It' which correlates directly to 'Sparty No!' And then Oregon is their Ohio - down to the big O, generally moronic fans, lower academic standards, etc. Its frankly uncanny.

Output: The way this guy's mind works - the way his brain is wired - is unlike anything I've ever seen. I can't wait for the next John U Bacon book, talking about the Harbaugh years and beyond.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] My dad would take me to games in the student [Body]

Output: My dad would take me to games in the student section when we was a 40+ yr old MBA student. You'll be fine as long you're wearing the right colors and cheer for the home team.

Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] As someone who went off to [Body]

Output: As someone who went off to camps 10-15 years ago, I'd say they were some of the best learning experiences I ever had. More than just 'knowledge' or whatever, you learn social skills, teamwork, independence, etc. Plus its a lot of fun once you make friends and start doing stuff. It'll be great for your mom as well (she'll learn how to deal with him eventually moving out of the house). Camps I went to: CAEN (Umich Engin), All-State (Interlochen), CTD (Northwestern), and a bunch of random camps associated with UM. I am a nerd.

Output: I meant on last years ranking list (that I linked)


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Don't forget that these are [Body]

Output: Don't forget that these are reputation rankings, not rankings of the school itself. Michigan clocked in at #17 on last years list. My alma mater was #1 :D.

Output: Exactly. OU WISHES that those kids had only destroyed property. 50-100K in property damage is tiny. This is going to cost the university millions in poor PR.

Output: I'm pretty sure this was posted way back when this came out in like March or May


Input: [Date] 2 days 9 hours ago [Title] This isn't a single instance. [Body]

Output: This isn't a single instance. He says something similar every time he's asked. It's been 5+ times since he's left. The fact is, you'd never hear a guy like Lloyd, Harbaugh or even Hoke say this crap. It shows the true character of Rich Rod. Even if this stuff happens, you don't publicly rip your former program at every opportunity.


Input: [Date] 2 days 9 hours ago [Title] I hate when Rich Rod, and [Body]

Output: I hate when Rich Rod, and writers, suggest that not supporting RR somehow ruined his chances here. The only person that failed at Michigan and is responsible for the product on the field was Rich Rod and it's pretty lame for someone in his position to try and pass blame off to anyone else. And the fact that he would keep blaming other people is just further evidence that he would never work out here. Even despite all the shit that York did to Harbaugh, you don't hear Harbaugh blaming him for anything. Rich Rod is just a petty person.


Input: [Date] 5 days 6 hours ago [Title] I forgot about teh great home [Body]

Output: I forgot about teh great home and home games coming in the next few years. Should make season tickets even more worth it.


Input: [Date] 5 days 6 hours ago [Title] Well, yes, that is a [Body]

Output: Well, yes, that is a relatively new development. Having the MSU and OSU games alternating was great for season ticket holders. Though, PSU on the schedule every year should be good in the near future.


Input: [Date] 5 days 6 hours ago [Title] The appeal to seasons tickets [Body]

Output: The appeal to seasons tickets has always been 1. Guaranteed a consistent seat 2. @ a consistent price and 3. And guarantee access to the best games. Stubhub is great for the occasional sporting event, specifically ones like Baseball with a lot of games and a lot of tickets availible. But when it comes to say games against OSU and MSU -- you're going to spend about as much on those two games alone on Stubhub as I've spent on a single season ticket that includes those and 5 or 6 others.

Output: I love the thinner M on the hat at the bottom. I used to have that hat and was sad that Adidas didn't do anything like it.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The stadium looks great! [Body]

Output: The stadium looks great in this one! Seriously though, I bought my dad this picture from the 2003 Michigan vs. OSU 100th game and I love it: Hard to see small, but it's cool in it's actual size. Probably like 2-3 feet wide in real life.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] For those using old TV grabs [Body]

Output: For those using old TV grabs for determining yellow -- I have a hard time taking those at face value. The color simply doesn't translate to TV well and could have been the same yellow just discolored through the television recording process.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] My favorite is actually the [Body]

Output: My favorite is actually the JP Burger at Jolly Pumpkin in A2. Great ingredients and unique cheese makes it stand out compared to others. Plus you can pair it with a great JP beer.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Hunter House? You can't be [Body]

Output: Hunter House? You can't be serious. They're one step above white castle. The one in A2 is constantly empty and my guess is they close within a year.

Output: I agree, those are slick and very clean looking.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Choose a school over another? [Body]

Output: Choose a school over another? Maybe not consciously. But when kids react like this is certainly is a selling point to some extent. It's something you get to add to the pamphlet or whatever you give the recruits -- or maybe the PowerPoint. It's no different than the "our helmets have wings" pitch.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I mean, it's nothing new. [Body]

Output: I mean, it's nothing new. Nike is the premier sports apparel company in the world and because of that have a solid following. It's the same reason people go to Banana Republic to get nice jeans vs. Walmart. Say what you will about this whole thing, but I haven't been able to find a good sweatshirt since Nike left. Adidas seems to make things fit tighter and are shorter. I just happen to like the fit of the Nike stuff better.

Output: This was posted on the main page a few days ago.

Output: Did you read the article?


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I liked the first episode. I [Body]

Output: I liked the first episode. I think it's hard for people to compare season 1 equally to seasons 2. I remember being unsure about season 1 after the first episode and found some aspects equally as confusing and mysterious as I did the first episode of this second season. I followed the individual stories well, thought they were all interesting in their own way and I like how they left it with them all connected by that (spoiler) dead county official. It could end up being bad, but I actually like the cast that they picked. Colin Farrell seems like a great "loose nut" kind of guy. Vince Vaughn seems like he could be a great evil character, if that's where they're going with that, and Rachel McAdams, so far, played a great kind of broken person looking for some sort of revenge or to release her anger on someone. You just can't compare these seasons to one another, especially with the first one being so good. These series seem like a great idea because they're all enclosed in their own little bubble. And if one year isn't as good as another, the next season with an entirely new cast can go the other way.

Output: All of our coaches have really weird social media presences.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I tend to look at average [Body]

Output: I tend to look at average star ranking on rivals. The team rankings are basically just who has the most recruits. Outside the top few, the talent doesn't necessarily correspond to the rank.

Output: Has anyone stated the obvious? "Pride comes before the fall".


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I'm glad we're picking up [Body]

Output: I'm glad we're picking up recruits, but it's hard to get excited about under-the-radar prospects like this. Maybe he'll turn out, but it's very unlikely that the majority of these two star kids we've picked up over the past two days will amount to much. Maybe one of the three will statistically.

Input: [Date] 34 weeks 5 hours ago [Body] Wasn't Boise St set to move to the Big East until everything else happened with reallignment? Seems like they would still have interest in a move, and it would make more sense geographically. As far as team 2...perhaps a Conference USA team looking to jump ship now that their conference has been impacted by UAB's departure. [Title]

Output: Wasn't Boise St set to move


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 18 hours ago [Body] Yeah...what Gucci Mane said...basically a missed opportunity more than anything. That's the thing I always liked about hockey at Yost, players would always acknowledge the fans (moreso after wins obviously) with a simple raised fist, thumbs up, or applause - did it make any difference, not really, but was kind of nice to see that they appreciated us being there cheering them on. [Title]

Output: Yeah...what Gucci Mane


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 20 hours ago [Body] Fair point, I just don't see how the coaches would've let 70+ players know that they should head to the locker room especially with 11 already on the field....more likely is that it's standard post loss procedure [Title]

Output: Fair point, I just don't see


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 21 hours ago [Body] Eh...don't know about that, it was the typical 30 seconds left let's shake hands and go straight to the locker room, dont think coaches would've stopped them if they headed to the north endzone area...I'm not bitter about it in any way, just think it would've been something nice [Title]

Output: Eh...don't know about that,


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 21 hours ago [Body] I was there as well...waited out the rain on the concourse and had some pretty interesting conversations with the ushers/event staff who all stayed. Props to them for their hard work, they did the best they could with limited information, nobody really knew if it would continue. Both sidelines were flooded for a good while, but they managed to drain most of the water prior to the restart. Two things of note when the the stadium reopened. 1)Definitely more Utah fans at that point. 2)Agree with OP on wanting to continue supporting the team, the players anyways. Everyone who did come back was certainly being loud as possible. I was kind of disappointed at the very end when the players just walked off without going to the area where Michigan fans remained...I get it we lost, but still kind of disappointing. [Title]

Output: I was there as well...waited

Input: [Date] 4 years 21 weeks ago [Title] I am so thankful... [Body]

Output: that my parents didn't force any beliefs on me, but rather allowed me to develop my own opinions about the world, and what is right and wrong. I am so thankful that I and my siblings did not grow up in a repressive community like Mr. Davies, being forced to believe that homosexuality and sex before marriage are sins. I am thankful that my brother was able to tell our family that he was gay at the age of 18, and we of course love him for who he is and love that he is able to communicate with us without fear of judgment. Compare that to the last generation when my relative couldn't tell her parents she was gay until she was in her 30s, or the generation before that when my relative lived in a sham marriage for 30 years before coming out. I'm sorry for getting off topic but reading about people that are repressed and living as if it is still the 19th century within our country really gets me going.


Input: [Date] 4 years 21 weeks ago [Title] I see, I read you wrong... [Body]

Output: its option B then, you feel that religion saved your life. I would say that many people aren't happy in high school, sometimes it takes more time growing up to discover who you are. I don't know you personally, but the people I know that have similar stories of redemption I find usually just didn't realize that they had the strength within themselves the whole time. But hey, if they feel that the religion was what made their lives better, rather than their own free will, thats their decision. At least they are happy I suppose.


Input: [Date] 4 years 21 weeks ago [Title] Maybe [Body]

Output: just maybe, I mean I'm spitballing here, but MAYBE when you are 18 years old, and you have the maturity/emotional development of a 15 year old because you've lived your whole life in the restrictive world of the LDS, MAYBE you just don't realize the ramifications of signing the Honor Code pledge. Maybe, just MAYBE you've never fallen in love with a girl(or boy) before, maybe you think you know that you don't want to have sex until you get married. Then maybe, who knows, it is college after all, and there are thousands of young enthusiastic people mingling in one small area, MAYBE you meet someone you love. But oh shit, you can't fully express that love, sorry son, remember two years ago when you signed that Honor Pledge? Yep, we've got you by the balls now, separate beds or you're outta here! Just sayin', things aren't always so black and white. And just because the policy is clear to incoming students doesn't automatically make it right to enforce a policy so far outside our cultural and social norms.

Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Title] MNC equivalents? [Body]

Output: Not really. They were deemed "mid-major champs" which doesn't mean anything, they didn't even get invited to the FCS national championship tournament. Thats like the MAC, Sun-belt and WAC getting together, holding a championship game, and calling the winner the mythical national champion of the FBS. Had to nit-pick that statement, as far as the rest of your argument....I'll just say that you make a lot of assumptions with no factual support and leave it at that.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] Wait.... [Body]

Output: so the sky ISNT falling? I just don't know what to do.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] Thank you Magnus [Body]

Output: I've been trying to say this for weeks, but you put it much more succinctly.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] Thats great and all... [Body]

Output: But the coaching uncertainty is lurking no matter what DB does. No matter how forcefully he comes out and endorses RR, you're still getting negatively recruited just based on the last 3 years of results, and the uncertainty that persists. Furthermore, this tack makes it look like you're giving him one more chance, rather than evaluating objectively based on progress. Not really a stabilizing force IMO. Negative recruiting is gonna happen this year no matter what DB does/doesn't do. I'm sure there is a lot going on that we don't know about, I'm just going to trust that he is approaching the situation the right way. IMO the only thing that can really restore confidence is a strong showing in the bowl game with a finally healthy and rejuvenated team.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] Disagree [Body]

Output: Harbaugh would not have done a substantially better job recruiting if he had to deal with all of the negative press and irrational personal attacks that RRod has had to deal with.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] I said strong possibility... [Body]

Output: Summer was a long time ago, and the talk was mostly fluff. Didn't see any strong beliefs recently. So yeah, I don't understand when a thread about a single player verbally committing elsewhere goes all doomsday, and I especially don't understand it when the player verbaling elsewhere was expected.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] Plus.... [Body]

Output: How is it a positive to have your conference associated with miserable conditions like those in the Chicago game? Noone wants to play in that, and if they do have to eventually, they would still rather do it as little as possible, and not until they're being PAID to play.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] Really? [Body]

Output: I mean really? Why is this thread so depressing? Did anyone think Cooper was ever a strong possibility? And how do you figure the D will be thin forever? You must think theres no talent there right now, I guess, but I don't think anyone can reach that conclusion in regards to first and second year players. Its TBD.


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Title] I still don't know... [Body]

Output: what a "Big-Ten style run offense" is. The association of the Big Ten with the pound it up the gut running strategy hasn't been accurate in my lifetime, with the exception of Wisconsin.


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Title] The point is... [Body]

Output: There is no "Groban moment." Who the heck cares what songs the coach is playing at an emotional team event. The fact that the media jumps on these things, and people like you accept their narrative is ridiculous.


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Title] I disagree [Body]

Output: Olympic Ice feels a lot different. A lot more open space everywhere- neutral zone transitions, more important to use all the lanes, harder to play D in the D zone, a lot more room to cover.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] That position is untenable [Body]

Output: I believe Rodriguez deserves another year, but for the sake of argument I will take your side and say ok, we need to move on. What then does Michigan gain by firing Rodriguez right now? Absolutely nothing, and they stand to lose everything. The only replacement that you can even make an argument for as a possible upgrade is Harbaugh. It is not believed that he would leave before their BCS bowl game, so announcing that you are firing Rodriguez now creates the most possible uncertainty and recruting turmoil of any option. No matter what, if he was fired there would be a lot of turnover, but if there was a prolonged search it would only be worse. The fact that you are using the "Groban moment" as part of your argument is just embarrassing, and leads me to believe that you are the type of person who likes to make snap judgments relying on what the public perception is without knowing the actual facts of the situation.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] No... [Body]

Output: Try to keep up here, I know reading is difficult. We just agreed that: "Saying you are keeping RR does not stop the negative recruiting. Recruits want a coach who is here for the long term, by addressing the controversy DB would make it look like he is giving RR one more shot. This is the situation a team is in after 3 disappointing years. It is what it is, and no press conference can mollify it." So no, holding a press conference tomorrow doesn't do anything to save recruiting, and I think everyone on both sides agrees that there will be no "recruiting of a new coach." Its either Rodriguez or Harbaugh. And as for "Groban moments," thats only embarrassing because of the vindictive local media that partly caused this whole situation in the first place.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Exactly [Body]

Output: It doesn't matter, thank you for agreeing with me. I can flip it around on you, name one reason he needs to announce right now, since we just agreed that it doesn't matter. DB has a plan, and he is sticking to it. What is so hard to understand about that?


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] As has been said a million times... [Body]

Output: Saying you are keeping RR does not stop the negative recruiting. Recruits want a coach who is here for the long term, by addressing the controversy DB would make it look like he is giving RR one more shot. This is the situation a team is in after 3 disappointing years. It is what it is, and no press conference can mollify it.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] No Biggie... [Body]

Output: One more scholarship for defense.........assuming Tate doesn't transfer, they're set at QB for now.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Auburn/USCe [Body]

Output: Auburn is only 5 point favorites, an upset is not that unlikely.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] LOL [Body]

Output: That is such horrible logic. Whatever the best decision is on who should be the coach(I believe it is to keep RR), it is still the best decision regardless of what happens with Dee. And stating tomorrow what the plan is doesn't stop the negative recruiting any more than waiting does, its a fact Michigan will have to deal with this recruiting season, like it or not.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] "Press Conference" [Body]

Output: I would like to address the theory that all DB has to do is hold a press conference and everything is hunky-dory and Michigan can go forth and haul in a top 5 recruiting class. Unfortunately, thats not the case. Announcing a press conference just makes DB look weak by changing his course of action to pander to the mob. And stating that RRod will be back next year won't stop the negative recruiting, because it will look like he only has one more chance, and other coaches will call it a lame duck situation. Recruits want a coach that will be there for all 4-5 years. I don't think RRod has gotten a fair shake, but unfortunately this is the situation that the program is in. DB has been upfront with the process he will employ, I think he should stick to it.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Huh? [Body]

Output: Your complaint has no basis in reality. Were you unhappy with the line play this year? I don't see how you could be, they were the strength of the team, other than Denard. Now they are graduating one starter, two backups that didn't play much, and they're going to be adding 4 freshman, how is that not enough linemen for you? Not to mention that this whole parroting of the "Rich Rod only cares about skill players meme" is ridiculous. All college teams have lots of RBs and WRs, Michigan has a very standard distribution of scholarships.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] I disagree... [Body]

Output: There are 3 OL in the class, and they're planning on adding one more. Thats a solid class for OL, especially when they are only losing one starter. Having a lot of skill position players is important as well, because 1. RBs get injured often 2. This offense utilizes the skill position players in unique ways that most other offenses do not and 3. A few will inevitably make the switch to CB or Safety...granted we've seen some shuffling of the OL and DLs lately, but skill positions switching to defense seems a lot more common.


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] re: chris 1709 [Body]

Output: But its never anything new, the OP just thinks it is.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] Thank you [Body]

Output: The person I was imitating with that post acts like hes 5, so I'll take that as a compliment.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] "Prevent Defense" [Body]

Output: Noone seems to understand that a prevent defense is designed to stop long passing gains while conceding short, underneath routes. Not exactly how Michigan has been scoring this year. No team is going to let up against Michigan, because they have seen what the offense can do once it gets rolling. Unfortunately the comebacks inevitably came up short because unlike Auburn vs. Alabama last week, or Michigan vs. Minnesota in 2003, the defense didn't hold up. That doesn't render the second-half TDs the offense scored suddenly meaningless.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] You missed my point... [Body]

Output: I'll restate: In what universe is "being in the game at halftime" only to be blown out in the second half preferable to falling behind early, mounting a furious comeback, and coming up short? Not to mention that, IMO, the Michigan offense has been plagued by untimely penalties, untimely dropped passes and turnovers that had varying degrees of bad luck involved in these first halves. Its a small sample size issue, and though there seems to be a pattern, I don't know in reality how much of a role just plain bad luck played.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] Yeah... [Body]

Output: So if I understand this correctly, you believe hanging with a team for a half before utterly collapsing in the second half is superior to falling behind in the first half before battling back in the second half? Ultimately a win is a win, and a loss is a loss, but IMO fighting back shows character, team unity and conditioning, while collapsing in the second half is a hallmark of badly coached teams. Just my opinion.

Output: Btw, the article is about a victim with brain damage, so stop describing the decision as a no brainer.


Input: [Date] 1 year 12 weeks ago [Title] Why you haven't heard of marajuana suspensions before [Body]

Output: It's because they usually get reported as undisclosed team violations, player is tested by own school, and to avoid a harsher year penalty, the player gets suspended during the tourney or if football for the bowl game. McGary probably thought since he wasn't playing he wouldn't get tested, but since we dressed him for a game, NCAA chose to test him then. So it was probably a motivational ploy that backfired on us. Note during the regular season, most teams don't suspend their players for smoking weed, etc.

Output: Sterling has the votes? I think you meant to write Silver.


Input: [Date] 1 year 12 weeks ago [Title] Double standard [Body]

Output: What Sterling said is bad, however there have been several times when players have made derogatory comments or bad jokes about gays or Asians on camera or twitter and nothing happened other than the occasional apology. What happens the next time now?


Input: [Date] 1 year 12 weeks ago [Title] Grain of salt [Body]

Output: Nice points, but keep in mind it's written by someone at sbnation that covers and promotes big ten. Someone from our conference needs to win the tourney soon.

Output: Also described as a possible defensive specialist.


Input: [Date] 1 year 14 weeks ago [Title] Trade [Body]

Output: If by the trade deadline, they can't sign Scherzer they should just trade him for best they can get. They can still try to get him as a free agent in the offseason. This might damage this season, but would be better long term.


Input: [Date] 1 year 14 weeks ago [Title] Capital required [Body]

Output: Culver's website says you need $350,000 to $600,000 to buy one. Another comparison, you would need minimum of $750,000 and up to $1,500,000 for a Mcdonalds.


Input: [Date] 1 year 16 weeks ago [Title] Taxes paid per game [Body]

Output: Taxes in sports are paid per game played, so about half of annual salary will be taxed based on playing half your games at your home arena. The other half that would be taxed based on each game played at the state taxes of the away game. I'm sure there might be some loopholes too, I.e. I don't know if they don't travel to the away game due to injury, do they still pay that away tax since they didn't work there that day.


Input: [Date] 1 year 18 weeks ago [Title] Standing around [Body]

Output: I sometimes also think when we hit a drought, that we should mix it up a little too. Lots of teams start out this way. It would be great to get detailed explanation on it, i.e. Is it to rest our guy and/or just to stretch the defense, use clock to impose our pace.

Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Title] Letter of intent was signed [Body]

Output: Well, recruits sign letters of intent which they did as did our recruits, so those would be very hard to get released from.


Input: [Date] 1 year 31 weeks ago [Title] Not as many touch fouls for us [Body]

Output: I think people are mainly bothered about the officials not also calling several touch fouls against Stanford that they called against us, seemed like at least 3 times in second half , contact was only called on one side. The replay did clearly show Glenn getting pushed in the back on his final drive, should have been an and one.

It was way ahead of most burger places, but now places like Red Robin offer a lot of combinations. I graduated in 90, so I don't know what the burger scene is like in AA now.

Output: Team seems to run more smoothly offensively with Spike running the point.


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Title] Come here Peqppers [Body]

Output: Peppers should think about the strong points for coming here 1. Lead a revitalization and be a big reason for it 2. Earlier playing time, may be a one or two extra years before seeing the Bama field 3. Be a star on our team, at Bama your just another 5 star cog. 4. Play a few games in home state or closer to it than at Bama 5. That family environment that will last after your playing days sure we didn't have a good season like, so I understand why Bama is alluring and with how you got close with Hand during the year.

Output: Are people not aware of his current status? Gus Malzahn is head coach at Auburn now, he's not taking anything other than a better Head coaching gig.


Input: [Date] 1 year 40 weeks ago [Title] No huddle stopping strategy [Body]

Output: Another often deployed slow down strategy would be to have players sit on the field for an "injury", then walk/limp off the field for 1 or 2 plays. It really pisses off the offense too that the can't get quick snaps.

Input: [Date] 2 years 6 weeks ago [Title] From the wiki [Body]

Output: Each student-athlete receiving athletically related financial aid earns one retention point for staying in school and one eligibility point for being academically eligible. A team’s total points are divided by the points possible and then multiplied by one thousand to equal the team’s Academic Progress Rate score. Example: A Division I Football Bowl Subdivision team awards the full complement of 85 grants-in-aid. If 80 student-athletes remain in school and academically eligible, three remain in school but are academically ineligible and two drop out academically ineligible, the team earns 163 of 170 possible points for that term. Divide 163 by 170 and multiply by 1,000 to determine that the team’s Academic Progress Rate for that term is 959. Teams that score below 925 and have a student-athlete who both failed academically and left school can lose scholarships (up to 10 percent of their scholarships each year) under the immediate penalty structure. Teams with Academic Progress Rates below 900 face additional sanctions, increasing in severity for each consecutive year the team fails to meet the standard. Year 1: a public warning letter for poor performance Year 2: restrictions on scholarships and practice time Year 3: loss of postseason competition for the team (such as a bowl game or the men's basketball tournament). <-- UConn bball is an example this past year, next year their scores improved to avoid the next level. Year 4: restricted membership status for an institution. The school's entire athletics program is penalized and will not be considered a part of Division I.

Currently installing a girl cave (sewing room) in the basement next to the man cave (football viewing and weights).


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Something does not compute. [Body]

Output: A 30-34 25-75 percentile ACT split implies that 25% of the accepted class had a 35 or 36. A brief internet search says that .38% of ACT scores are 35 and .076 are 36. in 2013, the latest date for which I could find info, 1,666,017 took the ACT. That means that about 6331 people in the US got a 35 and 1266 got a 36. 13555 acceptances x .25 = 3389 people with a 35 or 36 admitted to UM. That is 3389/7597 or about 45% of ALL seniors with high ACT scores applied to UM. That sounds high to me. I'm going to give this three fakes out of 5.

Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Benefits of Title Nine, baby! [Body]

Output: I know a lot of trash has been talked in the direction of the Title Nine directives but he next time you are inclined to complain about it, remember that tonight would never have happened without the resources made available to women's sports when Title Nine was passed. When I was in HS, women had to clear the practice field when the men decided they wanted it; women's coaches often were not really paid; the families of these athletes did what we expect staff to do for men's teams. No training resources either. No one showed up to games, and women athletes were often marginalized socially. As a high schooler I sat on a countywide committee to put T9 in place and learned a lot of these surprising facts. I know y'all are celebrating right now, but the next time you want to complain about gender equity requirements in sports, remember that there would not be a World Cup title, let alone 3, without it. Put your daughters on the field and cheer them on.

Input: [Date] 4 weeks 6 days ago [Title] 1) My dad and 2) my husband [Body]

Output: My dad grew up in the Depression on a little post stamp farm in Ohio. No electricity no plumbing and horses for the plows. He got himself a pilots license in high school during the war and just after, through an endless series of hitchhiked rides and bus transfers. He went to Korea, came back, and worked his way to become a college professor. He raised four amazing kids. He had a heart attach at 52 and in the subsequent 35 years has run or walked six days a week. He gave me the courage to change careers in my twenties and becomes a college professor myself. And then there's my husband, the nicest funniest smartest guy on the planet who, one other stellar features, has never EVER failed to keep a doctoral student out of despair, nor ever been anything but Worlds Greatest Fan to his kids. He is also, for the record, heroically adorable.

Output: Small residential island back behind Ile de la Cite and Notre Dame. Pass by the left of the cathedral and keep going until you go over a pedestrian bridge. There is one main street down the spine of the island. Rue St Louis. The further down you go the better it gets, especially just past Rue des Deux Ponts.

Input: [Date] 8 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Congrats and welcome [Body]

Output: I am on faculty there; you will likely run across me during the MAP program. For the record, Dean Blake is leaving the place in significant better financial and strategic condition than she found it. My only advice is don't be a chit-signer - the kind of student who sees the whole four terms as kind of a waiting room for recruiting. You should be learning stuff you didn't already know, and if you ever find you are NOT you should show up to office hours and complain about it. And don't use your phone or laptop in class . If your phone rings you owe the class a song, sung full voice. "Hail to the Victors" is the default but I have also had "I'm a Little Teacup" and an ex temporized 16 bar original composition about retail distribution strategy.

Input: [Date] 19 weeks 7 hours ago [Title] Good start but wrong stat [Body]

Output: Your conclusion (na gonna happen) is fine but I don't think we want the chance of a particular given person choosing correctly (147.57 quintillion) but of SOME person doing so - the chance of the event happening at all. We've got 11.57 million tickets to the "perfect bracket" lottery on ESPN alone. So one way of calculating the chance of someone getting a perfect bracket on ESPN are presumably .....ohf*ck someone else calculate it for me. But this is still not right, because we are not picking a truly random event. It would only be the right calculation if Kentucky vs. Hampton etc had a 50/50 outcome. Imagine I, a middle-aged college professor with a negative vertical leap, were playing a competitive game of HORSE v. Trey Burke. And yall were betting on it. Lots of people would win that one, not just 50%, because the outcome would not be a random event. Now imagine Trey Burke is playing vs. 63 middle-aged professors in a bracket. The probability of a winning bracket existingn would not be 1 out of 147.57 quintillion. Right?

Output: I've used UGP several times to have custom shirts made for group outings, usually in a run of 10-15 shirts. They are great quality and not too expensive. I think the person I worked with was named Danny, though it's been a couple years so I have no idea if he's still with them.

Output: I am not at all ashamed to admit that we have the Michigan Cheerleader outfit for my wife's female Jack Russell Terrier. She is adorable in that thing. It may help that when I first met my wife, she was an MSU fan. Part of the appeal of her dog wearing an M cheerleader outfit may lie in the constant reminder that I did such a good job converting her.


Input: [Date] 3 years 17 weeks ago [Title] Not that I wouldn't love to [Body]

Output: Not that I wouldn't love to see Burke come back, but playing devil's advocate, I can see how riding the bench and making half a million a year could be more appealing than having to go to class and stuff. That said, I really wish he would come back, develop his game and be a higher pick in next year's draft. He'd probably end up with a higher net worth two years from now even after not getting paid for one of those years.


Input: [Date] 3 years 24 weeks ago [Title] I've always found the term [Body]

Output: I've always found the term "Walmart Wolverine" to be a little odd, there are plenty of MSU fans that didn't go to State; at least the Michigan fans are supporting a winning tradition. Perhaps it was necessary to come up with an alternative to "Walmart Employee", which generally describes a graduate of MSU or one of their legacies?

Input: [Date] 3 years 36 weeks ago [Title] Parking [Body]

Output: You're 16 and coming up to the game sans-parents for the first time? If I were you I wouldn't worry about congestion after the game because you should really take some time to enjoy the experience rather than being in a rush to get out of there. It's really only badly congested for about an hour or so following the game, at least for me to get from Stadium and Main to 94 West via Jackson Rd. That said, there are plenty of good suggestions earlier in the thread for places to park. I'd probably either park near the stadium or focus on parking North of the stadium so you're closer to downtown. Walk around and have some fun after the game. Go downtown for a bite to eat, or wander through the golf course or Pioneer or any of the many places people are tailgating and watch some of another game on one of the TVs people will have displayed. I know that's fairly common because people always stop and watch ours. Have fun, and Go Blue!

Input: [Date] 3 years 43 weeks ago [Title] Seven Nation Army [Body]

Output: While I'm a big fan of the White Stripes in general, and that song specifically, I'm strongly opposed to playing it in the Big House. Is everyone else aware of just how often they play that at the Horseshoe, and how all of the Buckeye fans make a little "O" symbol with their hands? I believe they stole that from Oregon, maybe? They definitely didn't come up with it on their own, as usual, but they do it. As do countless other schools. When we're rawk-ing out to something that has been appropriated by our biggest rivals, who have been doing it for at least a year or two (if not longer), I think it makes us look foolish. I know it won't be a popular opinion around here, but I prefer "In the Big House" being played if only because it is unique to us. I'm in full agreement with the poster above who said that they'd prefer it came from an anonymous source rather than Nickelback's mascara-loving guitar techs, but at least I don't cringe and have "O-H.... I-O" flashbacks every time I hear it.

Input: [Date] 4 years 24 weeks ago [Title] Chrome Frame [Body]

Output: Hope I'm not too late to the party. I don't know if your particular security policy will allow it, but Google Chrome Frame is a plugin for IE (including IE 6) that uses Chrome's rendering engine for the html and javascript inside of Internet Explorer. If you were able to install it, you could just enable it for mgoblog and it should solve your problems. Alternatively Brian (or his brother) could enable a meta-tag that will automagically force browsers that have Chrome Frame installed to use that rendering engine over IE's (which is a good thing). http://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/ Good luck!


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Title] There are 5 stages of grief. [Body]

Output: A lot of us really liked Rich Rodriguez, and felt that he wasn't given a fair shake. Some of the Rich Rod supporters had their faith waver, saw Jim Harbaugh as an acceptable replacement, and went along with the idea of cutting the RR experiment short contingent on his replacement being old #4 that all Michigan Fans remember. The division isn't coming and didn't come from those of us that supported Rich Rod, quite the opposite. The opposition had 3 years to close the gap, didn't do it, and then expect us to capitulate less than a week after the coach that we were all-in with got fired? I think Rich Rod definitely had some flaws, but everyone who threw around the term "Michigan Man" while trying to run him out of town doesn't know the meaning of the term. A "Michigan Man" is someone who loves the University, who conducts themselves with integrity and honor, who is hard-working and committed to making those young men in his charge into better people. Rich Rodriguez was absolutely a "Michigan Man". With some support from a united fan-base, I think he could have done great things here, and I think he still will somewhere else. I thought from the beginning that he (or anyone) should get at least 4 years - one NCAA epoch - before any judgment should be made, but with at least half of the fans/alumni/former players actively trying to bring him down, he was fired too quickly. I love Michigan football. I agree 100% that all the fans need to stop this bickering and get behind a coach. I will get behind Hoke and probably support him long after everyone else has stopped. But you've got to at least give us time to get Rich Rod's body in the ground. I promise I'll be there soon, and I bet Brian will be too. We've already seen him go through Bargaining ("What about if we got a Coordinator from somewhere? Anything but Hoke") and this post looks a little like Depression; Acceptance isn't that far away.


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Title] Carr Reaction [Body]

Output: I can't believe it took all of, what, 3 hours before Lloyd Carr came out in support of Hoke. If he could have just done that with Rich Rod, ever, I think so many things would have been different. The large contingent of people that hated RR from day one should be ashamed of themselves. Particularly those that are now hypocritically expecting everyone to immediately be on board with Hoke's hiring. I will be on board with Hoke soon, much sooner than the other side was on board with Rich Rod (read: never), but it's going to take a little time to get over what I think was a situation handled extremely poorly. Go Blue.

It was one of my favorite classes and opened me up to how deep comic books/graphic novels really are. We started with Scott McCloud's book Understanding Comics, then we read classics like Maus and Ghost World.

The cast of TD season 2 was given an impossible task of following up season 1. I'm sure if this was a brand new show I would be enjoying it much more. Yeah yeah, cue up the, "Metallica's first 5 albums sucked too." You're hilarious, I realize that music is very personal and subjective, thats not my point.

Input: [Date] 4 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I should clarify what I meant [Body]

Output: I'm saying If he still shoots 36% from the floor and 31% from 3, he's going to at least need to be great on the defensive end. Love was god awful on defense, but at least offensively he ranked in near the top of every category for the PF position and he rebounded. He did that even though he was the 3rd option offensively and nobody gave him any credit. Trey is going to have to bring something to the table if he continues to shoot so poorly.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Burke - 13 attempts per 30 minutes [Body]

Output: Waiters - 13 attempts per 30 minutes I'm admitting that Waiters has a ridiculously inflated sense of his own abilities that's becoming comical, and that Burke's attitude is much better. But their offensive numbers are really close and Burke would have to dedicate himself to defense to play on this Cavs team. I'm sure he could do that simply because he has a better attitude, but if we're pushing our mutual Burke love aside, we can admit that he hasn't even been an average shooter his first 2 seasons.


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

Output: I love the dude, and I always will, but his FG% and 3pt% give me bad memories of Waiters. However, I realize that his attitude is nowhere near as bad as Waiters. He would have to dedicate himself to the defensive end to fit in with the Cavs.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 6 days ago [Title] I become productive at work [Body]

Output: ......except on Mondays, my golf league tees off at 4pm, so I need to get there by 3 so I can hit balls and have a beer. At 2pm I start thinking about leaving at 3 and having a beer, so really I'm working a half day every Monday.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 6 days ago [Title] You are never OT V. Smith [Body]

Output: You are never OT V. Smith


Input: [Date] 1 year 6 weeks ago [Title] You should see what he does [Body]

Output: You should see what he does with twenties


Input: [Date] 1 year 12 weeks ago [Title] My opinion [Body]

Output: The down blocking by all the lineman (Zone) Including the TE (Assuming he gets over in time). Allows the RB to read the middle of the defense and bounce to the left. Hence the FB stretchining to the CB on the left. The play was designed to suck Clowney in and run right by him not to the A/B gap.


Input: [Date] 1 year 12 weeks ago [Title] Two words that come to mind [Body]

Output: I'm surprised that "Moxie" (White) and "Well spoken" (Black) aren't on the list. Those are two that I constantly hear only used in that context.


Input: [Date] 1 year 12 weeks ago [Title] sincerely curious [Body]

Output: Do you believe that because Michael Sam may not get drafted or is there some new info that came out? Imo its not really a huge shocker that old rich guys dont like change no matter how much it doesn't matter.


Input: [Date] 1 year 24 weeks ago [Title] just wondering [Body]

Output: I was just wondering if you read the text log? To me it seemed there was a genuine friendship and from Incognito's side a brotherhood vibe. Granted the convo was foul and drug references were everywhere (which I believe is why it didnt come out right away) but I didnt think anything was wrong with how they engaged each other. No one seemed offended. Maybe it's just me or I didnt read all the reports but I feel bad for Incognito in this instance.


Input: [Date] 1 year 28 weeks ago [Title] Ban [Body]

Output: Can someone just instantly ban people that comment things like that? (5starrecruit) It makes us all look like Mlive or RCMB


Input: [Date] 1 year 38 weeks ago [Title] Agreed plus 1000 [Body]

Output: Agreed plus 1000


Input: [Date] 1 year 38 weeks ago [Title] I'm pretty sure some teams in [Body]

Output: I'm pretty sure some teams in the North are doing that already


Input: [Date] 1 year 41 weeks ago [Title] This could change fantasy [Body]

Output: This could change fantasy football forever


Input: [Date] 1 year 43 weeks ago [Title] As a high school Line coach [Body]

Output: I'd like to piggyback on this comment. Indeed it isn't very difficult in a routine play or in a controlled practice setting. However when you have a guy over you or even worse when you have to step hard in one direction to take the DT to one side or the other (as in a trap) it becomes increasingly difficult to make a hard step and get the ball on target. Think of it this way, smaller centers make it to the NFL because they can long snap (tight spiraled passes between the legs basically) they can't have anyone make contact with them until their heads are up and yet they still miss from time to time.


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] I have nothing to add other [Body]

Output: I have nothing to add other than I wanted to keep the "zone" alive and satisfy my curiosity


Input: [Date] 1 year 49 weeks ago [Title] There is no such thing as an [Body]

Output: There is no such thing as an ex-Marine. The term is former Marine or non practicing Marine ( if you're not into the whole brevity thing). Also this is terrible. The NCAA needs to get their collective heads out of their asses.


Input: [Date] 1 year 51 weeks ago [Title] I do see the difference [Body]

Output: You are 100% correct. My fault. I got a little carried away as I do believe a michigan man (alum, walmart, fan) should be held to a higher standard within ourselves especially on such a forum as this one. Some of the comments had me a little tweeked.


Input: [Date] 1 year 51 weeks ago [Title] I think there's a big [Body]

Output: I think there's a big difference between my statement and the statement of others directly bashing someone's beliefs.


Input: [Date] 1 year 51 weeks ago [Title] Last I checked so was Yost. [Body]

Output: Last I checked so was Yost. Glass houses an all


Input: [Date] 1 year 51 weeks ago [Title] This got out of hand quickly [Body]

Output: As an Atheist I find most/all relgious beliefs ridiculous. However I wouldn't ever bash a group of people for it no matter how easy the jokes are. This isn't the place for it no matter your views, same as politics. Last I checked we pride ourselves on our being better and hold ourselves to a different standard. Lets act like it.


Input: [Date] 1 year 51 weeks ago [Title] I have two thoughts on it [Body]

Output: 1. The NFL obviously uses NCAA football as minor leagues for freeso make a league thats not college based. I believe the market can support it. There will be kids that choose to learn and kids that choose to get paid. 2. A portion of all jersey sales and player likeness go to a fund that is given to the player only after meeting requirements of graduation, no severe discipline issues, etc.


Input: [Date] 1 year 51 weeks ago [Title] Am I the only one that see's [Body]

Output: Am I the only one that see's the irony of this comment coming on a michigan board? I'm not pointing figures and definitely not judging but we are a large part of the problem.


Input: [Date] 2 years 1 day ago [Title] Damnit I knew I should have [Body]

Output: Damnit I knew I should have been born a highly gifted athlete. That place is amazing.


Input: [Date] 2 years 3 days ago [Title] I just alternate using down [Body]

Output: I just alternate using down on the right stick and spinning to the outside for leverage he usually blows by for pressure. (Heisman diff btw) The one part I find frustrating is defending the zone read. It locks you into the running back even if you see the pull. QB runs by like a canned animation.


Input: [Date] 2 years 3 days ago [Title] He just broke the record for [Body]

Output: He just broke the record for sacks in a season for me on xbox (27 I believe) clearly he's capable of more than 7


Input: [Date] 2 years 3 days ago [Title] No doubt Crosby is the best [Body]

Output: No doubt Crosby is the best player in the game today (Wings fan) however his first couple years he was a whiny crying baby and no matter how much he's changed (He has) thats a label thats hard to break in the NHL. Gretzky was the best ever and for the most part people from every team revere him.


Input: [Date] 2 years 3 days ago [Title] During the game its Hockey [Body]

Output: During the game its Hockey but for post game sportsmanship its gotta be Rugby. Now where else have I seen such respect and sportsmanship no matter how ugly the game was on the field. The home team treats the away team to food and drink and atleast in the lower leagues it never gets out of hand and turns into drunken songs and laughs.


Input: [Date] 2 years 1 week ago [Title] I'm sure that's not the case [Body]

Output: I'm sure that's not the case at all but that is the first thing that popped into my head when I saw this. I mean he's a damn near lock for top 10 or better and one of the few his age range nfl ready. Aside from that he did see a pretty gruesome injury up close and personal.
