I mean, he gets pretty much get any players he wants from in-state, and he's got multiple national title credibility (very recent titles, too) for when he needs to cast a nationwide recruiting net. Either way, Jimmy clearly isn't messing around. Should be an entertaining off-season, albeit a long one. [Title]

Input: [Date] 26 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Yep, it's just another example of Sparty stupidity. The premise for their argument is laughable, IMO. They're basically saying "you and U-M suck because you're so popular and widely recognized across the entire nation." Then they'll try to say "oh it's just those that brag about the academics but didn't actually go there." Alright, so by that logic, you're not supposed to have respect or admiration for something you were never a part of?

Your mention of goggles had me wondering what kind of gear you have, and if you don't have really good gear, the features I mentioned can be lifesavers. I recall riding all night in 40 below zero in 1994, and I didn't get cold at all due to a good helmet, windshield protection and hot grips. Anyway, a good balaclava, full face helmet/shield would be good, although many guys do go with an open face and goggle combo. Goggles are less prone to fogging. [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 years 41 weeks ago [Title] Great point. I think Denard [Body]

Output: Great point. I think Denard and the O line have trouble reading blitz's and the recivers have trouble seeing it too. Got to be able to hit the hot read so that you can take advantage of the gap in coverage. Lets not forget that this is a new offensive system, adjustments at the line will come after the system is in place and we have a guy in place that knows the offense.

MSU will come out fired up but when the game settles down i think you will see Michigan move the ball on offense and do a good job of bending but not breakin on defense.

Output: I think this defense more so than most D's in the last 10 years is able to step up in big situations. 3rd and short, 4th downs, red zone, and goal line. They looked coached and it looks like 11 guys are always on the same page.

Input: [Date] 3 years 27 weeks ago [Title] MRI's - devils advocate [Body]

Output: Brian - I wish you well with the ACL surgery, if/when it should happan down the road, and good luck with the rehab. There is a difference in who you see in terms of specialist for the confidence in clinical exam and ordering expesive imaging studies. A good orthopedist can feel an ACL tear with his knee exam better, because he does the exam more frequently and has a better reference experience. Whereas, a primary care FP or internist will have less frequent experience in doing the knee exam, because he dealing with a wider range of patients with different problems. If everyone got an MRI for any knee injury, the waiting time for MRI scans would much longer, and the costs much higher, since you would be scanning alot of normal knees. Moral of the story, if you are worried about the knee, get thee to an orthopod first, since he will be more likely to pick up an abnormality on physical exam, and you can rest assured he will get the scan done in timely fashion. I agree about going to St. Joe's vs. UM, despite having trained at UM for medicine, St. Joe's has a lot more equipment capacity for its size. UM is using its MRI scanners alot of different purposes. I know this sounds wishy-washy, but it it is reasonable standard of care.


Input: [Date] 3 years 27 weeks ago [Title] careful about your language! [Body]

Output: Are you a lawyer or a sideline pundit?


Input: [Date] 3 years 35 weeks ago [Title] Another view [Body]

Output: While this interpretation does not follow computer algorithms, Michigan's drop in the rankings may have something to do with not covering the betting spread, which was 8.5 - 9.5 points. So Michigan won, but not convincingly and OSU appeared stronger than Nebraska, which Michigan beat handily the previous week. I wonder how many judge pundits use a method involving cover - not cover record, instead of win- loss ratio. I would have to go back to records to compare MIchigan record, but they have had some close games. If nothing else, our punter needs some practice catching snaps.


Input: [Date] 3 years 42 weeks ago [Title] Fwiw steve's cancer was an islet cell cancer [Body]

Output: Most cancers of the pancreas are an carcinoma cell type and have a dismal prognosis. Steve Jobs had an islet cell cancer of the pancreas, which overproduced a gut hormone like glucagon or insulin. And is not so quickly lethal. Sad to hear about his death, since he has been such power influence in all our lives. It is ironic to think th web began on NeXT computer at CERN


Input: [Date] 3 years 43 weeks ago [Title] Polls are fine for the moment!But the real reward is in the path [Body]

Output: Good polls are more a symbol of expectations. For me, the pathway to Big 10 championship is more enticing. While every Big 10 game is valuable, I think most people are waiting for four key games: 1) MSU game - to determine bragging rights for the state of Michigan, 2)Nebraska game - not very popular, but beating Nebraska is essential to winning the Legends division. 3) the Ohio game - it just feels good to make Jim Tressel eat his words. 4) If we can pull it all together - Big 10 championship game in Indianapolis - probably playing Wisconsin, unless they make a mistake. Also the Illinois game will be interesting after the triple overtime win last year. Go Blue!


Input: [Date] 3 years 46 weeks ago [Title] Stay Hungry - indeed! [Body]

Output: It's good to know that Michigan got noticed by coaches and journalists after the Notre Dame game, since ND has a potent offense, when they are not using it to shoot themselves in the foot. I will be happy for MIchigan to linger at this rank for the next three games. While I respect SDSU they are not seriously considered by pundits, and it will give Michigan fans a chance to see what we might look like on offense and defense in a couple years. While I like EMU as a small college, it is a couple quantum leaps from the Big Ten, and it will serve to only expose any glaring deficiencies and a chance for the offense to recover from the ND and build their confidence until they meet a Big 10 oppenent. Northwestern without Dan Persa should obviously be less a threat on offense than with him, but I would like to see us play NW with Dan Persa in order to develop our defense. MSU is the first serious opponent in the Big 10 that would earn us a leap in respect amongst others and ourselves. I am tired of losing to MSU the last three years, and our defense needs to show us they can handle Kirk Cousins and Edwin Baker effectively. It can serve to show the defense, where we can meet the challenge, and out of respect to MSU, Kirk Cousins and Baker will be more popular in the NFL draft someday, when they met a strong Michigan team - win or lose. Minnesota has not been traditionally a serious threat, and right now, I hope Coach Kill gets well soon. Right now - 4 B1G 10 teams are in the top 25 - Wisconsin, Nebraska, MSU and Ohio, and three other teams have received votes - Michigan, Northwestern, and Penn State. I would like to see 6 B1G 10 teams in the top 25 sometime this year, if the football gods deem them worthy, I wish a restful and quite 9/11 to all!


Input: [Date] 3 years 46 weeks ago [Title] Love the muppets! [Body]

Output: You can never have too much muppets! Rest now until next week. Watching Michigan football can be strenuous!


Input: [Date] 3 years 46 weeks ago [Title] Fine Review! [Body]

Output: Fine Review from UFR as always! I would be interested in a chart looking at Denard's performance during the first half, when conditions were relatively dry versus the second half (quarter), when conditions were decidedly wetter. Perhaps it would be worthwhile diving that second half into two periods, one before the first lightening delay and the second afterwards - granted, the numbers are small, but Denard seemed to be more inaccurate during the wet conditions. I will nitpick about one video - where you attempt to demonstrate a run by Toussaint for 11 yards, but it actually shows WMU offensive play for several yards againsts Michigan's defense. You can find the correct video further up the page, but it would be nice if you could fix it.


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] Well done scrimmage review ! [Body]

Output: Not that we would expect anything less. If only we could bring GERG Robinson back to coach the scout team for the defense, it might raise morale for the scrimmage! But fantasies aside, punting should be less valuable against Western Michigan. Against Notre Dame, I would hope a little trickery would not be out of character. One begins to appreciate Tate Forcier's ability to pooch kick on demand. I would not expect many cards of strategy to shown during the Western Michigan game; instead, just establishing fundamentals. See Denard run, See Denard pass and complete, see Denard fake run and pass, see Denard hand off to Shaw and run. A boring west coast pro offense for Denard would be a good change of pace. As for the defense - can we get some magic dust to activate Will Campbell as a pass rusher and run tackler. Just a thought!


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] Block M looks great! [Body]

Output: Looking forward to the HD capable scoreboards for big, awesome highlights and replays. Glad to see all the work come to fruition on time!


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] Good Luck Tony! [Body]

Output: Sorry to hear he is transferring. If weight is a problem, hope he gets in better shape. He sounds very talented and should do well elsewhere! Sorry to hear about Tim and TomVH leaving - when is the mgoblog draft?


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] Thanks Tom! [Body]

Output: Thanks for all your hard work and insight! Looking forward to your posts over at ESPN! Go Blue!


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] fine view from Section 20! [Body]

Output: I've always been partial to section 20 around row 40, where I have had the privilege to sit and watch Michigan footballs for a long while. That is the virtue of Michigan stadium - having a decent view of the field almost anyplace!


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] Sorry to see a good receiver go! [Body]

Output: There are times when I would appreciate something more informative than a few terse lines, that only announce the departure of a former team member. I wish Jeron Stokes my best, and hope he lands on his feet someplace else. In the meantime, I hope everything is okay on State street.


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] a tough road to hoe - [Body]

Output: Speaking as a physician, who has gone down this road - the first two years are usually preclinical sciences, which are done in blocks with exams for current subjects all occurring on the same day. See the michigan medical school site for the schedule of subjects. I welcome Heiko to the site, but he will be quite busy with preclinical subjects of study for the next two years. Depending on his subject for his Ph.D. additional coursework may be required, not to mention time in the lab and library. Note to Brian - I hope you will keep an open mind as to other volunteer pundits. Mgoblog readers have come to expect in-depth posts with a quantitative, statistical flavor. Your paternalistic tone is not unexpected, but I think you find in the clinic as well in real life, it is not lightly received. Not that you should go out and hire Greg Robinson for witty defensive commentary, since we probably are glad to be done with him. As to USMLE exams, there are three parts to the USMLE - which begins with step 1 usually at the end of the first two years, testing the preclinical sciences. Prior to 1994, there were two sets of medical boards - NBME and FLEX, which had slightly different schedules of exams. I look forward to your commentary and your insights.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] Respect JoePa's privacy please [Body]

Output: As a physician, I wish you wouldn't post an x-ray image, that seems to insinuate the nature of JoePa's injuries. He seems to be doing quite well in terms of function. I wish him all the best in terms of a speedy recovery. Let us be thankful for all his efforts as Penn State's coach.


Input: [Date] 4 years 1 day ago [Title] from a different era perhaps OT [Body]

Output: As a member from that earlier era from the 1970's, I remember that when I rowed crew, which is no less physically demanding than football, we had and still do have freshman crews for the first year and then varsity crews thereafter. Football also had a freshman team and varsity/JV teams but only the varsity played on saturday. Often the freshman teams would scrimmage unofficially, but that was held elsewhere. I think having a freshman year of ineligibility would be good, if done consistently throughout the NCAA, not just within select conferences. For lineman and defensive players, the freshman year allows the player's body to mature and develop with weight training. The respective squad can begin to learn the playbooks, so they can be effective the next year, and no make so many rookie mistakes. I don't think you need to increase the number of scholarships, so long as things are done consistently. Also, watching the freshman games might be extra source of minor revenue, especially for major rivalries, as a sign of what is to come in the future.


Input: [Date] 4 years 3 days ago [Title] It's probably wiser for RichRod to Caddy than actually play golf [Body]

Output: Consider all the kibitzers, who would jump on any poor shot or error Rich Rod could make. I just hope his friend has a decent day playing golf. Also no TinCup moments, such as breaking a golf iron over his knee, or refusing to lay up for a green surrounded by bunkers or water. I know it is Rich Rod is in season for punditry, but I do wish him well, since he did bring UM Football Denard Robinson and an exciting offense to watch the last couple years. I just wish he had picked a better defensive coordinator and recruited better for the defense.


Input: [Date] 4 years 3 days ago [Title] Kind of reminds me of Larry Bird playing at Indiana State! [Body]

Output: Hoosiers can be quite loyal to Indiana, and it does not suprise me that Gunnar Kiel stays withing state. If he does well there, he might end up at the Indianapolis Colts for the NFL. Remember Bob Griese many years ago went to Purdue and helped lead them to the Rose Bowl and Big 10 Championships. I don't remember anytime recently when IU has been a factor for the Big 10 championship in football. No doubt recently IU has been a lower tier team for football, but perhaps Kiel's early commitment to IU will attract other good talent there. Recently, the lower tier of the Big 10 has included IU, Purdue, and Minnesota, and perhaps Illinois. It would be nice for the Big 10, if everyone could raise their quality of game, and perhaps change the current pecking order. Maybe OSU will be more humble, if they have poor recruiting season the next couple years, and thus lose some of their smugness. Also I would love to see Indiana beat Notre Dame!


Input: [Date] 4 years 3 days ago [Title] slightly OT - who attends the BBQ at the Big House? [Body]

Output: Slightly OT - I was curious who attends the BBQ at the Big House? Presumably, it is a private affair, but in addtion to michigan football staff, possibly current football players and committed and potential recruits, do any other michigan staff or journalists or general public attend? My simple google searchs don't reveal any images or videos immediately available. Are any public photos released? I assume recruits arrive at Schembechler Hall and then walk over to stadium via the practice field and possibly the locker room. There is presumably some michigan security to prevent unwanted guests. Just curious, and trying to put things in context.


Input: [Date] 4 years 4 days ago [Title] oops, my mistake! [Body]

Output: Sorry for mistaking SJSU for SDSU, my fault!


Input: [Date] 4 years 4 days ago [Title] glad to see him find a new program! [Body]

Output: Too bad he has to sit out one year per NCAA rules, it would have been interesting to see play against Michigan this year. Despite his flakiness in recent past, I think still has good potential as a QB, and hope he can turn his career around at SDSU.


Input: [Date] 4 years 4 days ago [Title] Next questions- national anthem [Body]

Output: Given that Terrelle Pryor's stock value and eligibility for the NFL supplemental draft seems in doubt, the next question will be for 2011-2012, will Pryor need to sing the USA national anthem, i.e. the Star Spangled Banner, or the Canadian national anthem, i.e. O' Canada.


Input: [Date] 4 years 5 days ago [Title] My pregame ritual [Body]

Output: Brunch/Breakfast at Zingerman's. A stroll down to Sam's Store for the bandana of the day. Walk down Hill Street and State Street to check out the frat's. Drumline show is great, when there is time. check out the new commemorative bricks. Say a prayer for Maize 'n Blue, then head on in to find our seats and check out pregame warm-ups. Please ignore the other side until it matters!


Input: [Date] 4 years 1 week ago [Title] Sigh! [Body]

Output: Let's get this petulant nostalgia behind us. I would be interested in ten years to hear from Coaches Mattison and Hoke about the scene that they found. However, confidence and other intangibles make a big difference, and GERG seems to be on the short end of the stick there. Let us look forward to better times and brighter fortunes. No comment on the music, Mr. Misopogen, but far be it for me to rain on your parade. Cheers and good luck!


Input: [Date] 4 years 2 weeks ago [Title] Addendum - no malware warnings on mobile Safari [Body]

Output: P.S. - No malware warnings on my iPodTouch with mobile Safari with iOS version 4.2.1 - Not sure if they access the google malware database. While Safari, Firefox and Chrome all use Webkit on Mac OS X, this does not seem like a Webkit bug, rather a Google malware database effect.


Input: [Date] 4 years 2 weeks ago [Title] Safari too! [Body]

Output: I am getting malware warnings on mgoblog.com with Safari 4.1.3 with mac OS X 10.4.11 on old iMac LCD with PowerPC G4 chip. Since I don't have an intel chip, I threw caution to the win and turned off the warning and posted here. I get similar warnings with Safari on Mac OS X 10.6.8 with intel chips. When you click through the warning to Google entry for the mgoblog.com site, it seems benign. good luck!


Input: [Date] 4 years 3 weeks ago [Title] Vacate wins vs. Vacate points [Body]

Output: I don't buy Mandel's argument that vacating the 2010 wins for OSU is sufficient. While Jim Tressel may have made a critical judgement error, several OSU players should have ineligible for the Michigan game and the Sugar Bowl. While rewriting game history might seem strange, if you are going to vacate the win, why not vacate the points and other statistics related to the ineligible players, especially T. Pryor. T. Pryor has been flagrant in his disregard to NCAA rules, selling memorabilia, and then dropping out from his senior year, and run off to the NFL, assuming some team will pick him in the supplemental draft. While punishing OSU probably should include a post-season ban for a couple seasons and the loss of several scholarships. I would think some direct penalties involving the players involved is warranted.


Input: [Date] 4 years 11 weeks ago [Title] 2012 will be better, but play it cool! [Body]

Output: Not worried about ESPN's rating. Middle of the pack or better is fine for the first year with Coach Hoke. It is a rebuilding first year. The defense has a long way to go, given recent history. I am not worried about the offense, but they will need to adjust to the new style. Now if we can just rely on kicker to score the occasional field goal. That would be a good change. That would taste great, and be less filled with ambivalence.


Input: [Date] 4 years 11 weeks ago [Title] worthy memory for a classy guy [Body]

Output: great idea to remember Lloyd Carr!


Input: [Date] 1 week 2 days ago [Title] Two I can think of... [Body]

Output: 2007 Ohio State: The offense never showed up and neither did the offensive line at the point of attack. I almost lost it at the Michigan bar in DC at the end of the game. Plus, it was the end of a season that saw The Horror and Oregon--Carr's unfortunate sunset, so a lot of frustration came out. 2014 Minnesota: Concussion-gate. When I watch games on TV with friends, I'm OK. When I watch by myself...I'm yelling and screaming. A lot of yelling and screaming, a lot of pounding the coffee table, happened that game. The fact that nobody on that staff could figure out Morris had a concussion or even attempted to take his helmet away was unconscionable.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Went to the Maryland-MSU game last year [Body]

Output: My buddies (MSU grads) and I first thought about taking Metro from Northern Virginia, but we knew between construction and just the system's complete unreliability that it could take us almost 2 hours to get back late at night. That said, if you want to take Metro, UMD has shuttle busses that will take you to campus and drop you off near the stadium (or wherever you may are tailgating). What my friends did was drive to the College Park Metro stop, parked there (it's free on the weekends), and took the shuttle bus to campus. We ended up walking back to the Metro station from campus after the game, which ended up being a 30-minute walk (but doable).


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Just my opinion but... [Body]

Output: I'd love it if the university seal came back on the shoulders. They were worn on the jersey during my undergrad years. Unfortunately, the complete de-emphasis of the seal across the university pretty much means that won't happen. Note: I was not a fan of the "shiny" maize jersey options during those years (nor the use of the Colorado Avalanche lettering/numbering). But definitely bring back the script Michigan.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Thanks...I was a big BB fan [Body]

Output: Thanks...I was a big BB fan growing up watching the local Detroit channels for news. I was fairly bummed when he got canned in January 1995, but it was understandable--he just couldn't control the drinking habit. When WXYZ put the compilation of best commentaries out and the one with him railing against college football and Michigan-OSU...until the twist at the end, it was worth making that an avatar haha.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Title] One of my favorites...love the scene when they're [Body]

Output: One of my favorites...love the scene when they're watching the Michigan vs MSU game and Bo makes a cameo appearance on the TV screen.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 19 hours ago [Title] I was at the Yerevan Republic [Body]

Output: I was at the Yerevan Republic Square (aka their ancestral Armenia homecoming) concert back on April 23 and SOAD absolutely rocked. They still have it. If the set list is anything similar to their European tour, it will be most of the stuff off their previous albums...plus a couple covers of some patriotic Armenian songs and a 3-4 part political cartoon on genocide (which is why they're doing the tour first place).


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Title] McHenry lost her cool, no [Body]

Output: McHenry lost her cool, no question. But that towing company, Advanced Towing, in Arlington (VA), is notorious for predatory towing and I'd go far as to say they're one of the most unscrupulous companies on the planet. This article says that she may have been rightfully parked when she was towed. That said, she lost her cool and definitely should have known better and could have handled it better since now Advanced Towing likely gets away scot free. The fact she continued her tirade after looking up at the security camera was a facepalm moment if there ever was one. I know a few people that got towed by Advanced and shouldn't have, but they don't give a damn. They want your money any which way they can. http://www.arlnow.com/2015/04/16/video-espn-reporter-berates-advanced-to...


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 16 hours ago [Title] I'm watching the Runnin' [Body]

Output: I'm watching the Runnin' Rebels HBO documentary right now and I didn't realize Tark and Smith coached against each other in the 1977 Final Four. Both now gone. Sad day for basketball and my fellow Armenian-Americans who really looked up to Tark (and Tark was proud of his Armenian roots).


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 6 days ago [Title] This [Body]

Output: In the interest of full disclosure (even in the danger of getting flogged on this forum): I used to work at USA TODAY in the sports department (my boss was an ex-Daily editor who initially wrote "Go Blue!" when he responded to my CV/resume for that gig). In fact, at one point there were quite a few ex-Michigan Daily writers/editors employed by the paper. If I were still there, I probably would have had to publish this article since I used to work with the college sports desk. The National sports media won't delve deep into this stuff--they only write what they can see. Like a few others have mentioned, they won't think about what the future may hold. Only that "Michigan lost out on Clark and Marshall...UCLA grabbed a whole bunch of highly-ranked players...etc." It's very superficial and I'm not a big fan of it either. But like stated before: It's all clickbait to rile up the fanbases. We know better--Harbaugh can develop these guys to play like studs. That's all there is to it.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 6 days ago [Title] SI also put Michigan in the loser column [Body]

Output: Sports Illustrated put Michigan in the loser column as well. http://www.si.com/college-football/2015/02/04/national-signing-day-winne... Let's be honest: We won't know if we're a "winner" or "loser" for another 2-3 years when this class develops and shakes out. So I take these recaps with a grain of salt just like the NFL draft grades that come out one day after that's all said and done.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 23 hours ago [Title] Jim Harbaugh will flip these recruits for real [Body]

Output: He'll flip ya for real


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I feel like the Josh Smith [Body]

Output: I feel like the Josh Smith signing happened because of Gores' "win now" ultimatum and the fact that Dumars had the money to spend. It was a poor signing. Darko was high on many draft boards that year and, yes, history shows that was an awful pick. But let's not forget Darko was also a primadonna who let all the hype get to his head. That hype let him think he had the right to play regular minutes each game from the start of the season. When he didn't get regular playing time under Larry Brown (another factor you have to throw in because Brown wanted Darko to play more a traditional post game instead of the inside-outside shooting big-man Euro style Darko was used to on top of the fact this was an NBA Finals bound team with a strong, tight starting nucleus already forged), he sulked. The sulking affected his attitude which affected everything else. He was talented--perhaps not at a No. 2 pick level--but it's not like the guy didn't know how to play hoops. He had a crappy attitude. I mean...look at his choice remarks after this EuroBasket game in 2007 that didn't go Serbia's way. Talented kid, horrible mindset.


Input: [Date] 28 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Here's the link to his [Body]

Output: Here's the link to his Youngstown State coaching bio. There's also a "mic'd up" video on the bio...embedded below.


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Minnick on Harbaugh from Dec. 2011 [Body]

Output: This is from December 2011 from the 49ers' "Harbaugh Interviews" ... some very cool Harbaugh anecdotes if you click on the link. Example: A classic story – and I still have a scar on my hand from it. We were probably in the fourth grade, fifth grade. Our parents are best of friends. They were best of friends when we were young, they are still very close friends. But my dad and Jack Harbaugh are very much alike. And we were playing football in the front yard. You know, my brothers and Jim and John, and we were arguing over a call, Jim and I were. Jim and I are – I guess from our parents’ side, unfortunately – very much alike. So we’re arguing over a call, and his dad and my dad just kind of look at each other and go, ‘Damn it, that’s enough. You two fight.’ So right in the front yard, our parents had Jim and Jim square off in a fistfight, just to quit arguing about calls. And sure enough, that’s what we did. And I caught him real good. I caught him right in the mouth, cut my hand open on his tooth. Blood’s everywhere. And at that point, they broke us up. And the funny thing about it is, because the fight was called because my hand was bleeding, Jim claims he won the fight. So he had me come out when I just got back from Iraq, off of one deployment, he had me come out and speak to the Stanford team. And when he introduced me, that’s the story he tells. So that gives you an idea the kind of competitor and the fighter he’s always been.”


Input: [Date] 30 weeks 2 days ago [Title] My best explanation of what went wrong [Body]

Output: In case anyone cares, I talked to a former colleague of mine from a "sister" paper of the Freep. (Full disclosure: I worked at a Gannett paper for five years on the online sports desk with at least one other Michigan alum--it was NOT the Freep). He said that Gannett, the parent company, has been centralizing page/photo/copy editing at regional "design centers" for the local papers they own (Freep, Indy Star, Louisville, Arizona Republic, etc) except for USA Today. So it's quite possible somone not in Detroit AND not well-versed in sports (which the latter has to be the case IMHO) picked the faux photo and edited the page. It's still a massive failure and ultimately falls on the Freep editors for not getting it right, but this is another sign of the downfall of the old-school newspaper business: Local papers that aren't produced locally for the sake of corporate economic efficiency.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Not only that...last I [Body]

Output: Not only that...last I checked, you can actually run the ball out of the spread and pistol and any other spread type of offense. Heck, we ran the ball pretty well in the 2008 Capital One Bowl game vs. Florida when we went to that spread-style design for that lone day.


Input: [Date] 36 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I hate to say it but this game could very well be [Body]

Output: I hate to say it but this game could very well be M00N II: The M00M.


Input: [Date] 36 weeks 6 days ago [Title] I believe it was mentioned in [Body]

Output: I believe it was mentioned in Three and Out that Bill Martin had Dungy on his initial wish list. The man is not coaching football again, period.


Input: [Date] 37 weeks 2 days ago [Title] My post on Diggs went up probably the same time as this one [Body]

Output: Here's a link to a Baltimore Sun article that details what happened. I hope he gets well soon. Diggs was injured early in the fourth quarter of the Terp's victory at Penn State, when he took a shot to the kidney area while diving and stretching out for the end zone after a catch. Diggs was down on the field for an extended period and was tended to by Maryland’s athletic trainer before walking to the sideline. While Diggs later returned to the game and nearly scored on the Terps’ next series, the wide receiver was in noticeable pain while walking to the postgame media area after the game.


Input: [Date] 37 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Go Back to the future for bowl sponsors [Body]

Output: Bring back USF&G for the Sugar, Sunkist for the Fiesta and Federal Express for the Orange.


Input: [Date] 38 weeks 5 days ago [Title] NY beers [Body]

Output: In Manhattan to run the NYC marathon Sunday ... First beer was St. Lawrence Liquid Gold, now on the Kuka a Pumpkin Dubbel.


Input: [Date] 44 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Re Harbaugh being viable [Body]

Output: I think he is based on other track records. UCLA hired Jim L. Mora in 2012 and he had last coached college in 1984 as a GA at Washington and obviously was never a college coordinator. It's worked out OK for them so far.


Input: [Date] 45 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Before Jaws...he was Kanamit [Body]

Output: In the Twilight Zone episode "To Serve Man" ... and yes, it's still a cookbook.


Input: [Date] 48 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Olympic Stadium [Body]

Output: Montreal's Olympic Stadium back when the Expos were around. Went to a game there in 2002. The seats were awful and you could just tell the ballpark was awkwardly converted for baseball...Not to mention the issues they had with the roof for years and the financial boondoggle it was for Montreal, among other things.


Input: [Date] 49 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I would rather have been in Armenia doing what you [Body]

Output: I would rather have been in Armenia doing what you were doing (and visiting the motherland in the process) then watching the game at the Michigan bar in NYC. When you get sympathy from random Miami (YTM) fans in Manhattan ... It's bad.


Input: [Date] 1 year 1 week ago [Title] Usually I don't believe in [Body]

Output: Usually I don't believe in coincidences, but this for this purpose it is...especially since I didn't make the connection that Bo indeed looks like Clancy here. I love those photos of Bo wearing those sunglasses in the 80s. Heck, I wish I owned a pair.


Input: [Date] 1 year 1 week ago [Title] "This business will get out of control" [Body]

Output: Although I was in diapers, this has shades of 1983 with the Korean Air disaster where the Soviets shot down the airliner after it strayed into Russian air space, killing everyone on board. That all said, my only comment for this disaster can be summed up by Admiral Josh Painter from The Hunt for Red October.

Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Body] I've been with this site since the beginning as it coincided with my undergrad days. The meltdowns are unfortunately tightly coupled with the sub-par field performance, and that's certainly sad. Enjoy this Team folks, enjoy the community and the game but take a step back and look at this as entertainment, not your life or lifestyle. I personally enjoy the WLA community as they take a perspective on our fan base that reflects on the obsession and looks at it critically, which I feel is necessary. We are a crew who are incredibly passionate, and that manifests itself in folks who confuse that passion as being knowledge. Do we need to, as a fanbase question every recruiting detail, every call, every coaching move and mundane detail? The WLA folks were great at calling out these aspects, and I feel it is necessary. Michigan football is an institution but at the end of the day it affects my day in 0 ways. Act accordingly. Maybe I don't agree with the ban first ask questions later mentality, but I am open to the suggestion that it is necessary. I enjoyed chitown's perspective. I liked reading it here.

Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Body] 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. [Title]

Input: [Date] 50 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I grew up in Michigan. Many of my friends are Michigan fans. Many of them didn't go to the school. I go to games and tailgate with them. I watch away games at the bar with them and have parties for bowl games. I don't think they are creepy or weird. That said, I don't know any of them I could text "hey, what did you think of the Brian Cole committment" and not get a "who?" back in response. That's the difference in what I'm referring to. [Title]

Output: I'll also clarify a bit


Input: [Date] 50 weeks 5 days ago [Body] ...and being obsessed. Constantly reading about, posting about, getting emotional about a team constitutes obsession. Why have that much invested into an amateur sports team without some sort of connection? Michigan is my alma mater and current school. That's a connection. Having parents or siblings that went or go to the school is kind of a connection. The further I can go on the weaker the connection gets. The fact is, when you have little connection to something but are obsessed with it... yeah it's "kind of" creepy. It's an opinion. You don't have to share it. But all I'll say is there should be much more important things in your life than commenting on a football team you don't have much connection to other than being a fan. It might have something to do with why you weren't a good enough student to get into the school in the first place. Just food for thought. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 1 week ago [Body] What makes the athletic accomplishment of a player like Jack Miller or Dennis Norflleet so much more worthy of being given everything than the scholar from the south side of Chicago that had to fight through far more adversity to get a full tuition academic scholarship to Michigan but still can't afford to house or feed him or herself? And that person has a far greater chance of attributing real value to society than 99% of the other college athletes out there, even those playing for major football and basketball programs. I've never understood the inane argument from athletes that say they went to bed hungry. It's a ridiculous lie b/c just like the rest of us that go or went to college with no money, there is federal aid in loans or grants that will take care of all of the necessities. And just like the rest of us they might have to pay it back when they graduate. For those that make millions of dollars for the athletic program, they have a far better chance of paying back those loans immediately since, if they truly are generating that revenue themselves, they're very likely going to be making hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars professionally afterward. Spare me their sob story. Full tuition is enough. Otherwise extend the full cost of attendance scholarship to academic scholarships as well. Athletes don't deserve any more than they do. In fact, they deserve less. They're not out there creating new technologies to make our lives easier, new medical breakthroughs, engineering marvels or positive social policy. They are providing entertainment. And only a scant few of them have names recognizable to the rest of the country.... Sorry, ending my rant now. [Title]

Output: Why should they get the full cost of attendance?


Input: [Date] 1 year 1 week ago [Body] you end up with a few elite programs becoming football or basketball businesses instead of universities, not requiring players to attend classes, making hundreds of millions of dollars more than any other school and monopolizing ALL the talent. There would no longer be any semblance of competition. Just like in the real world, free market economy (which is regulated far more than what you're suggesting for college athletics), there would be only the Warren Buffetts and Charles and David Kochs of the world at the top, holding 75% of the wealth in "college" athletics, leaving the other 25% to be split among the rest of the schools. Not sure how you could deny this when this is the reality of capitalism today. And that's with checks like antitrust laws in place which you don't think college sports should have. Thanks but no thanks. Today's NCAA landscape is far superior to that. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 1 week ago [Body] Sure, yeah. Let's impress one of the other 50 recruits that will never be a starter for a top 25 program. That makes me feel much better. There a only a small handful of uncommitted recruits coming now that can help this team in any way. [Title]

Output: Dude...


Input: [Date] 1 year 1 week ago [Body] That's not a good reason at all. If that's true he knew a long time ago that he wouldn't be able to make it. His coach didn't schedule this practice yesterday. [Title]

Output: And... here's the new look!


Input: [Date] 3 years 9 weeks ago [Body] I personally think the article's headline is a bit misleading because the "profit" was on Michigan's expense allowance for the game, and does not include Michigan's share of the remaining bowl revenue for the Sugar Bowl and other bowls. Unless the conference had to pay more in unused tickets than it received for its bowl bids, Michigan should still pocket a nice chunk of change from its share of the remainder. [Title]

Output: I personally think the


Input: [Date] 3 years 24 weeks ago [Body] LSU fans quickly gobbled up the school's allotment of 37,000 tickets, breaking a school record for a regular-season road game. Oregon sold out its 15,000-ticket allotment. http://sports.espn.go.com/dallas/ncf/news/story?id=6715802 Given the misbalance between the schools' allotments last year, I don't expect there is room for Mr. Jones to give more tickets to Michigan. This year, we aren't the equivalent of LSU facing a distant, nascent fanbase. We are matched against the defending national champions who are located within driving distance of Dallas. I suspect Jones will use the remainder of the tickets for local/Cowboys purposes, and the best we could hope for is a small group of seats or a large allotment of standing room only seats. [Title]

Output: Different situation this year?


Input: [Date] 3 years 24 weeks ago [Body] http://www.mgoblue.com/tickets/fbl-cowboys-classic.html Victors Club members with 50 or more priority points did not face a limit unlike those who could order yesterday. Anyone who ordered more than 4 with less points either will have their order reduced, or the Athletic Department did not enforce their own policy, which is frustrating for those of us who would have ordered 1-2 more but were maxed out. [Title]


Input: [Date] 4 years 18 weeks ago [Body] I think the NCAA did not suspend the players to provide OSU the opportunity to appeal. Although they ended up only appealing the 5th suspended game, if there had been less proof, OSU potentially could have appealed the entire charge/punishment, which could have led to no suspensions if successful. You could think of it similarly to being on bail until final sentencing. [Title]

Output: I think the NCAA did not


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] God help him get the support of the fanbase if he can't even face his old team. That game is a bellwether for the rest of the season and beyond. Think back to the MWC team we played at the start of 2008. It's an opportunity to show progress against an up-and-coming non-AQ team. [Title]

Output: God help him get the support


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] I was more disappointed from that article to see that Hoke bailed out of SDSU with nothing more than a text message to his players. Michigan should have provided him the opportunity to take the extra 4-6 hours to hold a team meeting and explain his decision in person. [Title]

Output: I was more disappointed from


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] You're absolutely right. Hoke will have fewer distractions than RR due to the relationship with the fanbase and media that is clearly going to be less strained than it has been the past three years. However, the only good that can provide is if it leads to more winning. A smoother relationship with former players and boosters has not and will never be a substitute for winning. Dave Brandon clearly felt that Hoke is qualified for the job, and he does not deserve a pass due to his lack of experience as a BCS coach. I will definitely be cheering like crazy at every game next year. But until Hoke starts performing in the areas where RR failed, confident and inspiring talk will not have me convinced we are immediately on track for greatness again. [Title]

Output: You're absolutely right.


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] What does letting go of RR have to do with applying the same standards to our new coach? If Hoke can't do better than 3 wins next year, or 7-6 in year 3, would you really think we should keep him? Judging by people's expectations here, 7-6 by the third year would be highly unlikely. He would be significantly underperforming, and undeserving of a fourth year based on traditional Michigan expectations. [Title]

Output: What does letting go of RR


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] Given the question they were answering, I read it as "if we don't win at least 6 games, Hoke will not meet expectations for next year" [Title]

Output: Given the question they were


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] Why should we expect Hoke's recruiting to be better than Lloyd's? What evidence is there to suggest that a rookie B10 coach will out-recruit someone who won a national championship at Michigan? [Title]

Output: Why should we expect Hoke's


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] Lol if the BR media is chasing BBQ receipts and iPhone photos, their heads are going to explode if they have to start a coaching search on January 11 or 12. Then again, the Detroit media was chasing down the Domino's corporate jet at Willow Run tonight based on blogs' obsession with FlightAware. I don't know which is funnier. [Title]

Output: Lol if the BR media is


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] The Big Ten does not allow signing 27 so that coaches can greyshirt kids. There are some minutiae with scholarship numbers that allow a team to count early enrollees in the previous year's class if you have enough extra room in your scholarship limits. Michigan took advantage of these rules last year to stock the roster back up to 85 for 2010. [Title]

Output: The Big Ten does not allow


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] And here I thought the NCAA only cares when entrepreneurial reporters dig up a story exposing a violation. It turns out that even when violations are admitted out in the open, there has to be excessive stretching involved to justify a response. [Title]

Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] I think it would be worth pulling out the checkbook for Gruden. We are in a much weaker position than we were three years ago in terms of the attractiveness of the job, but we still have a huge checkbook to go along with state of the art facilities, and I think we should take full advantage of that before we lose it. I think his national visibility from MNF and his NFL experience/Super Bowl win more than make up for his lack of recruiting experience as a college HC. Look at the way he talks up every damned player who completes a first down on MNF. Can you imagine how convincing he could be selling the Big House and winged helmets? [Title]

Output: Gruden


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] You will also want to look at this link. http://www.mgoblue.com/genrel/081309aaa.html It states that a student ID is required to validate the tickets. Whenever I have had tickets validated, I have presented my ID, although I may have provided it without being asked in every case. You should absolutely be able to find a student in the Michigan Union Friday night before they close around 6 or Saturday morning before the game to validate it for you if you hand them the cash, so I wouldn't be too worried.

Input: [Date] 4 years 42 weeks ago [Body] It's very disappointing that U of M is getting trigger happy with the cease-and-desist letters. That is absolutely hilarious that they thought you were actually making Denard Robinson Heisman Trophy™ candidate edition action figures. If the wallpapers are on a private website that makes no mention of your business whatsoever, I hope that you can continue to get them published.

Unfortunately, we haven't decided what to name him yet after picking him up this afternoon. There are many great suggestions on this page to look through, I'm sure we'll find one!
