Input: [Date] 2 years 47 weeks ago [Body] wow I serioulsy was about to post the complete opposite thread so I'll just post it here instead of taking up board space. Well this weekend there has been a lot of blame going around about why the Bama game was such a mess. It's been pretty bad and I understand we don't like the results, but at some point we really need to take a step back and realize there was a lot of good in this game to. Obviously not as much on the field but it will help our players and coaches. Rarely do you get to see 50% of this years draft class on the other side of the ball. They were very good and sometimes you have to chalk it up to that. From examining the board for the last 36 hours I have comprised 5 of the biggest issues that we bloggers have been having and I'm going to try to debunk/bring attention to them. So lets get it started at 5. 5) Sparty this and sparty that... Well from a post a couple down from mine is a pretty good example. I understand many of you have to deal with the fan base on a daily basis but sometimes we really need to stop giving a crap about them. yes, they lost to Bama worse and yes they beat a ranked Boise team but we really don't need a whole section of the board that looks like RCMB. I would honestly prefer that all state stuff was combined into one week of hate and we could forget about them the other 51 weeks of the year (other then basketball of course) 4) "Refs were awful, no pentalty call on interception, CLIPSSS!!!!" I think since saturday night we have had 3 board topics on the exact issue or atleast 3 different conversations in comments about it. I'll be honest that I thought the refs missed a lot but those things are apart of the game. In a national poll on espn a few months ago, fans voted that Michigan gets the most calls while playing at home. Not sure I totally agree with that but I guess we have the feeling that a lot of other teams have when they play us in A2. Oh well, the refs didn't cause turn overs, poor tackling, or were the reason Bama dominated in the trenches. 3) " Why you no run Denard!" that topic was pretty crazy around these parts during the game and it seems like most of it has settled down. The biggest thing I took away from saturday is that Denard is never going to be Payton Manning.. I know shocker right?.. Borges knew what he was getting himself into. Bama was going to hit us square in the mouth and is going to be the best D we see all year. Injuries were happening all over the place and our offense is revolved around Denard still. If he would have got hurt badly then we would have been down to Bellomy and.. air. We didn't run the offense you will see when we get to B1G play. This year goal wasn't to beat Bama but to win the B1G and Denard running for 150 against Bama wouldn't have effected that at all. Now we just have to sit through a week of talk radio of Ohio and State fans saying "haha he sucks". Don't worry about it.. When he is actually fresh in the B1G this year, Michigan fans will be a lot happier. 2) Blake Countess.. Troy woolfolk.. STOP KILLING OUR DB'S BRADY!! Well we all know the biggest hit out of the game happened 24 hours after it was actually done with blake being ruled out for the year. That has sparked the "we have so many other guys that don't mean as much as blake that can be a gunner" conversation. I'm frankly pretty sad for this injury but thats apart of the game. You have the same odds of being hurt as a gunner as you do a CB. 3-7 extra snaps normally won't change anything but now our top returning corner has been hurt 2 years in a row on ST. Beamer ball is predicated on having the best 11 players out there. We took a year off from bad injuries last year and we got reminded this year that they still happen. Brady will have someone out there by B1G season who will be able handle themselves. CHILL. This my favorite: 1) It's all Dave Brandons fault! This is where I just say SHUT UP! Back in 2010, We had really high hopes for 2012 and that was when RR guys were going to be "flying high". Dave Brandon (yes it was Dave not Bill) wanted to get the national exposure that the team and fan base wanted. We all know what happen in 2010. Then Hoke came in and won 11 games with smoke and mirrors. (trust me we beat teams that we really weren't better then last year) OK smoke and mirrors is a little harsh.. Better coaching and some good bounces. The whole summer everyone was so hyped for this game. I could link you to the 5000 posts about it but honestly this post is to long to begin with. Earlier this week, Brandon makes a statement about wanting more high profile games and everyone was like... yay!! these are awesome! Then Saturday happened. Now the blame game is on Dave Brandon. He took a chance and I fully respect that. I know this blog is sponsered by "get off my lawn" inc. and everyone hates new non-traditional things but the whole athletic department is moving in the right direction. I get everyone around here hates the jerseys lately but for some reason the 16-18 year old kids love them (I have no clue why) and it helps recruiting these kids. This game was not Brandons fault. As an AD he did his job but we just didn't have the horses to run with Bama. http://mgoblog.com/content/michigan-alabama-dallas-2012 http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/brandon-aggressively-seeking-big-games-futur... I know this was kind of a long rant but as a fan base we need to chill. We still have a good team and there is a long season ahead. Lets look forward to Air Force and hope that there is marked improvements in all areas. It was the first game and mistakes happen. Usually they happen against Western and you wouldn't notice. Everything will be ok and I still have really high hopes for this team. Go blue! [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 years 48 weeks ago [Body] As a Toledo student, I would prefer a Toledo win but for RR that would not be the best start ever. If Toledo doesn't win the MAC this year I will probably have to go jump off the High Level. This year team has so much talent that the only thing stoping them will be themselves. If they can get past zona and Cincy, they could have a very special season.. Just have to remind the defense that its tackle not 2 hand tap. [Title]

Even more impressive when you consider how BC play, highly skilled and like to possess the puck.

Output: Total team corsi is good for previewing a matchup, especially in B1G pay when we'll see each team four times. But as a post game recap I find it less useful, it simply says who carried pay which is more or less obvious by watching the game. Player/line corsi is more useful at breaking down who played well or poorly in a particular game, but is obviously more time intensive. GbG stuff is a lot more informative on the technical side.

Output: The series at Yost was probably just before the really crappy part. Going into that series Michigan hadn't scored less than 4 goals in a game and went another weekend before scoring less than 3. After that the real crap began and they had a 6 game stretch where they scored 6 goals total and averaged 4.5 goals against, a trend which continued until basically Febuary. That said I really like our chances, we seem to be playing out of our minds (or maybe just to our talent level). And Miami lost last weekend to FYS, which in the games I've seen them play is deservedly the worst team in the conference. Not to mention we have been lighting up some of the top goalies in the country in Slubowski and Hjelle and will need more of the same against Ryan McKay who is pretty much hands down the best goalie in hockey


Input: [Date] 2 years 21 weeks ago [Title] He was not on the bench for [Body]

Output: He was not on the bench for the second half


Input: [Date] 2 years 28 weeks ago [Title] Good Assessment [Body]

Output: I agree with all that you said. This team just doesn't do "the little things" like they should. The refusal to dump and chase, poor board play (better tonight), losing almost all the puck battles, unable to keep the puck in the zone (often leading to odd man rushes). These are the little things that less talented teams like Bowling Green are beating us at. There are some players doing these consistently - Copp, Sinelli, Treais, Nieves, Kevin and Travis Lunch come to mind. But as a whole they're not done enough.


Input: [Date] 2 years 28 weeks ago [Title] More energy overall, the [Body]

Output: More energy overall, the problem is when we're down there's only a few guys who keep the energy up (playing physical, getting to loose pucks, holding the Blue line etc.)


Input: [Date] 2 years 28 weeks ago [Title] So 7 goals total on 30 shots, [Body]

Output: So 7 goals total on 30 shots, that's videogame type stuff


Input: [Date] 2 years 28 weeks ago [Title] I wish there was time on ice [Body]

Output: I wish there was time on ice for college hockey. Every time I look Merrill or Trouba is on the ice sometimes at the same time. Incredible


Input: [Date] 3 days 2 hours ago [Body] It's in Grand Haven, so it's close, and everything i've ever tried from them has been excellent. When you're there, you have to try Bean Flicker, which is a coffee flavored blonde, and the Black Citra IPA if they have it on tap. [Title]

Output: Oddsides Ale's


Input: [Date] 9 weeks 3 days ago [Body] According to Forbes, the Lions are the only NFL team to lose money last year, and have done so for 4 straight years. [Title]

Output: Nope


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Body] And they could easily fit him in if they weren't paying the corpses of Franzen and Weiss to not play hockey the last 2 years. They signed Weiss to literally the same contract as Filpulla and got zero out of him. That's a giant fuck up [Title]

Output: Filpulla would be 5th in points on the wings


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Body] but if you are OK with just throwing those guys away for literally nothing, then it's a fine deal [Title]

Output: They gave up a top 50 prospect


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 hour ago [Body] either that or you've forgotten about signing Weiss, or trading for Legwand, or lettting Filpulla go, or going half a decade needing to add defense and somehow not managing to do it once. He's drafted well and managed to not make any super nova fuck ups with a core of established players but it's a stretch to say he's done a particularly good job lately, especially considering his great drafting is due in large part to Andersson's excellent scouting. It's probably time for him to move on to greener pastures and let someone who can actually go out and get some free agent or trade help take over. He's set them up nicely for the future, but the team is going to need a change of leadership from the top down if it wants to bring this young group of players to cup contention. [Title]

Output: That's being a bit generous


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 20 hours ago [Body] Which seems a little dumb to me. Schools with a lot of green probably should avoid this. [Title]

Output: It's Grey


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Like, historic beast. He's a 3 time champ already, going for 4 this year, and he would only be the fourth wrestler in history to win 4 NCAA titles. I'm not sure on an exact count but I'm pretty sure he's lost less than 10 matches since starting high school, and most of them were close matches to older, multi-championship winning wrestlers like David Taylor. [Title]

Output: Steiber is a beast


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I'm pretty sure that is a scene from the movie Dogma, and time is frozen around the main characters whilst some dilemna or plot point is laid out. [Title]

Output: Finally, I contribute something of value


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Body] It would, in fact, be surprising if the Lions made the super bowl. [Title]

Output: They've won a single playoff game in 57 years


Input: [Date] 28 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Dom lost to the youngest Rizgallah, 4-3. I hope Coon makes the Olympics, almost entirely because that means we would get to enjoy post olympic redshirt year wrestling, which is always awesome. That's how you end up with guys like Jake Herbert teching the #2 kid in the country [Title]

Output: Yes


Input: [Date] 28 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Is that you could damn near walk from campus to St. Johns, and yet every single wrestler from there goes to Michigan. They were OK as a team when they had the Simmons and I think Boudro, they've had a few scattered AA and a champ since then, but that's almost entirely a result of being in a wrestling rich area. I would like to say that a big part of why that gap is starting to grow is Michigan's willingness to spend. McFarland was able to hire 2 huge name assistant coaches a few years ago from the olympic program, and Michigan has probably the nicest wrestling practice facility in college. [Title]

Output: All you need to know about MSU wrestling


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 6 days ago [Body] My phone is trolling me with that feature, as I will now demonstrate by typing a name. Brady Hoke is a very innovative and visionary offensive mind. [Title]

Output: Fun fact


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 20 hours ago [Body] Sorry man, if you end up here, but the thought of Greg Schiano in a Michigan polo makes my skin crawl, and I puke a little in my mouth [Title]

Output: I was terrified this was Coach Schiano


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 2 days ago [Body] At least IIRC there were a few guys in the 6 million a year range at that time [Title]

Output: I thought Saban and Les were already making more


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 2 days ago [Body] That if you twist one of your e's into a u, and the other into an h, your name is an anagram of Harbaugh? .... Harbaugh? [Title]

Output: Did you know


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 2 days ago [Body] Still more work in college. Acquiring players is just a much more time consuming task in CFB than it is in the NFL. [Title]

Output: Nah


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 2 days ago [Body] This feels like the kind of article that gets written when some big wig see's the "48 Million Dollar" report on TV and calls the office saying "I just saw an obscenely large number next to a dollar sign on Sportscenter, get the sports econ dude on this!" which then causes him to get on real quick and stretch 2 regurgitated talking points into an article because there isn't any real sports econ story here. Not that he's necessarily wrong, Harbaugh might stay in the NFL for those reasons, it just seems lazily written and out of this guys wheelhouse [Title]

Output: Sorry if this is out of line, but here's some wild ass speculati

Input: [Date] 33 weeks 1 day ago [Body] The greatest coach in the history of organized sports [Title]

Output: Don't diss Wet Herrera


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 1 day ago [Body] So they take this team, which is already relatively old and not that good, and dump 20 million in salary, plus either the money to pay their picks or the picks themselves in the draft. They are going to win maybe 7 games then have to flat out cut starters this off season. They are a tire fire [Title]

Output: They are 20 million over the cap next year


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Body] "Jim, before I take this job, there's one thing I absolutely have to do. I'm gonna need your plane, I'm going to need the entirety of my contract, in full, in non sequential peso's, 20 pounds of rotel and velveeta, and one of those bomb suits. Yeah, like from the hurt locker" [Title]

Output: I can see it now


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Body] going from the worst OF in the game to Cespedes is a huge upgrade, and he's at least as good offensively as Hunter [Title]

Output: He's a GIANT improvement defensively


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Body] He's not coming to Michigan, but New Orleans is going to be a trainwreck next year, and he's just watching it slowly crash. It wouldn't absolutely shock me if he took another NFL job because he doesnt' want to be stuck in rebuild mode [Title]

Output: That might be bullshit


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Body] It was 3. You can get Simon's production off the damn scrap heap, you don't need to be trading players for it. [Title]

Output: Yes


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Body] He was incredibly lucky over the first half of last year, he's much more the guy who had a 4.5 era in the second half of the year. That is hot ass garbage in the NL. [Title]

Output: He's hot ass garbage


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Body] Or are you just gonna ignore that part of it? [Title]

Output: Was Harbaugh at Stanford for 11 years?


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 4 days ago [Body] They have been extra terrible lately. The fact that they even published the Dr. Football bullshit shows where they are [Title]

Output: You could make it about the product too


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I failed to properly execute, and have double posted. [Title]

Output: Much like the 49'ers O-line


Input: [Date] 2 days 6 hours ago [Title] I agree that we need more than 4 [Body]

Output: I think the ideal number is either 6 (with two teams on a bye the first round) or 8 teams. I don't see them expanding it any further that that. 64 teams is just plain insane.


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Well, He is a good Catholic boy [Body]

Output: Well, He is a good Catholic boy


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 6 days ago [Title] No! [Body]

Output: No! We don't like him so he must be a horrible coach, an abusive/neglectful father and has a tiny penis!

Output: A buddy of mine lived in an apartment building with a lot of stoner tenants in college. His Wi-Fi name was DEA Enforcement Van 1. That was before they changed it to "I can hear you having sex apartment 6"


Input: [Date] 18 weeks 2 days ago [Title] nope not all of us [Body]

Output: I prefer Adidas


Input: [Date] 18 weeks 2 days ago [Title] i guess I'm the only one [Body]

Output: but I prefer Adidas, not just the color. I never understood the clamor for nike... For all the UNIFORMZ complainging they still looked better than that pro combat crap. To me it always seemed like People complained about something/things that were going to happen anyway... we were going to be bad in 2008/09/10 regardless of who our apparel contract was with, and we were going to get stupid special uniforms regardless of whether it was Adidas or Nike. As far as the UNIFORMZ go, I've always thought of Adidas as the lesser of two evils. I just feel like Adidas got the contract at the wrong time and have gotten a bad rap for it. Maybe I'm wrong, just one man's opinion. /soapbox rant

Output: 12 million page views durring It's Happening!... Harbaugh


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I actually liked Le Chiffre [Body]

Output: He certainly wasn't the best Bond villain, but doesn't belong on this list in my opinion. Seriously I doubt anyone would be smiling much if caught in his position. The only issues I see with him as a Bond villain is that he has more of an air of desperation about him. Also his intimidation factor stems from nothing about him but the organization for which he works. He's not the scary boss of a multinational criminal organization, he's a broker for one.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 2 days ago [Title] friendships died that way [Body]

Output: My parents enforced the no Oddjob rule when my brother and I would play. So I was always Trevelyan and he was Natalya or Xenia. Proximity mine matches were the shit


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I'm fully aware that the [Body]

Output: I'm fully aware that the standards are different than those within the legal system, within that policy there is room for exactly the response outlined above. Suspend the guy from university grounds and functions until such time as he's proven to be guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. You can still work within the universities standards without jumping to expulsion immediately. "Students, faculty and staff found to be in violation of this policy will be subject to discipline up to and including termination, expulsion or other appropriate institutional sanctions; affiliates and program participants may be removed from University programs and/or prevented from returning to campus." It looks, however that in this case the student in question removed himself from the university making the argument moot with regards to this specific case. Had this been the actions of Stanford I would argue that the previously suggested response (suspend him then expell him pending a preponderance of evidence) is a far more appropriate response. Imagine a scenario wherein someone is falsely accused of rape; the standard response would be immediate expulsion without allowing due process.


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 1 day ago [Title] ok, so then he gets suspended [Body]

Output: Pending a trial where he ends up being found guilty. If he was caught red handed there ought to be enough evidence to prove his guilt and he would then be expelled- but after due process. That's how this is supposed to work.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 1 day ago [Title] saw that [Body]

Output: Sources are saying Oakland is still in play


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 5 days ago [Title] yeah right [Body]

Output: I'm pretty sure mistiming, poor decision making, and Rob Ninkovich were the reason for Luck's low completion percentage.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 5 days ago [Title] "Did you just call me black? [Body]

Output: "Did you just call me black? Because the last time I checked the proper term was AFRICAN AMERICAN!" "But Turk lets me call him chocolate bear" "Who the hell is Turk!?!"

Input: [Date] 4 years 7 weeks ago [Title] Special Teams [Body]

Output: I'm a little surprised our special teams is a B. Has be because of Hagerup. Also, its tough to see that we dropped a to a 5 star on the 6 star scale, but I notice that Notre Dame did too

Output: Try it again, it's up.


Input: [Date] 4 years 10 weeks ago [Title] Class [Body]

Output: Instead of by class, they're by division. So they take every MHSAA school who will have track as a varsity support, then divide that number into 4 even groups based on enrollment. The rankings are listed by the division their school is in


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Title] What is this? [Body]

Output: Ok so what is this site exactly? Any clue what it does or how it comes up with it's tweets?


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

Output: I was at the scrimmage Saturday at the Big House, they had Demens, Woolfolk, and Floyd rehabbing with one of the strength coaches by walking up an aisle of the stadium, usually all the way to the top, then they'd walk across to the next aisle and walk all the way down. They repeated this around the entire stadium. When they walked by me about 3/4 the way around, the players were ready to be done with it. They ran a few times up the stairs, but for the most part just walked them.

Output: I'm drinkin some White Russians tonight.


Input: [Date] 4 years 20 weeks ago [Title] Why? [Body]

Output: There are way too many threads on all this, but all the titles pretty clearly show that they're about Ohio State. A label isn't completely necessary I don't think


Input: [Date] 4 years 20 weeks ago [Title] Fine [Body]

Output: But did the FBI tell him after the original email (April 2?) or after the email that said to keep it quiet (April 14?), or in December? Tressel should have followed up with his administration as soon as he responded to the original email if he thought that the information was in any way credible


Input: [Date] 4 years 20 weeks ago [Title] The scandel [Body]

Output: I prefer the scandel itself. I find the apologists ignorance unbelievable and somewhat annoying


Input: [Date] 4 years 20 weeks ago [Title] Comments [Body]

Output: Those comments are pretty ridiculous. They somehow think they're getting screwed in all this, while the rest of the country thinks last nights press conference was a joke and the NCAA should bring the hammer down. I can understand being biased towards your team, but at least try to have a little common sense


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

Output: Given the qualifications listed by the poster below, I retract my questioning his resume. He obviously is deserving and should get in. There are around 20 coaches in the NFL HoF, my assumption was that the College HoF was just as exclusive, however that's clearly not the case (this is not a criticism, trying to explain before I get negged to Bolivian). Given that, I again agree that he should be inducted


Input: [Date] 4 years 21 weeks ago [Title] Lloyd a HOFer? [Body]

Output: Saw this and was a little surprised to see Lloyd on the ballot. I guess I don't know how the selection process works, I see there's a huge number of candidates. I mean no disrespect of Lloyd, but I don't view him as a Hall of Famer. What's everyone think? Is he worthy of induction?


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

Output: But I've read (I think from Simmons) that this is "presented by 30 for 30" or something like that, so I think we can expect the same quality and presentation style


Input: [Date] 4 years 22 weeks ago [Title] That was heartbreaking. I too [Body]

Output: That was heartbreaking. I too could use a posbang right now

Output: Wow, a Rounders reference? And a poor one at that. Needs to work on that Russian accent


Input: [Date] 4 years 23 weeks ago [Title] Agreed [Body]

Output: Instead of censoring players, how about teaching them to be responsible?


Input: [Date] 4 years 23 weeks ago [Title] Impressive [Body]

Output: I think Iowa and Illinois are toss-ups that we really need to win. I'm saying 8-4, though it's really way too soon to tell


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

Output: Losman went 8-5 and then 5-7 while completing 57% of his passes in his 2 years as a starter at Tulane. Not exactly an amazing college career.

Input: [Date] 4 years 26 weeks ago [Title] Why? [Body]

Output: I've never been able to understand why people find amusement in writing annoying posts like this.


Input: [Date] 4 years 26 weeks ago [Title] Great post [Body]

Output: This was hilarious, thanks for the link


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Title] To me, this is interesting, [Body]

Output: To me, this is interesting, but I don't think it's automatically an indication of future success or failure. Recruiting at Michigan is a huge difference compared to BSU or SDSU, both in the prestige of the school your recruiting for and the competition your likely going up against.


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Title] Text [Body]

Output: How does anyone find out what texts are sent between recruits?

Input: [Date] 31 weeks 4 days ago [Body] had Schefter on and kept echoing the sentiment that "if he was going to go to Michigan, why hasn't he left yet?" etc etc etc. strange to see him soften that in any way, as ESPN is essentially the NFL's monkey.. [Title]

Output: ESPN this morning


Input: [Date] 3 years 14 weeks ago [Body] In the box score is I believe Joe Reynolds, who if I'm not mistaken was a former track athlete that switched to football. Redshirt junior? My buddy went to high school with him and pointed it out during the game, and I didn't see him on the box score. [Title]

Output: Unknown

Input: [Date] 4 years 7 weeks ago [Body] Smith gets called up this year. With Rafalski retiring and with a few other D-men under performing (I personally hate Salei), he could be the biggest part of our future. We really needed a little more work from them this year! [Title]

Output: Here's hoping


Input: [Date] 4 years 7 weeks ago [Body] would be which players would be missing and what stats would then also be missing? You can actually base that on facts and not just wistful desires. It was a compelling read nonetheless. [Title]

Output: A good start point


Input: [Date] 4 years 7 weeks ago [Body] If Tressel had actually suspended people for doing improper things that he had known about, the product on the field would have been reduced and therefore the team would have been worse. This is regardless of who was recruited. Since players like Clarett and Smith should have been suspended, they would not have been on the field and then you would've had backups in. Like Bowser, man. [Title]

Output: I think you nailed it


Input: [Date] 4 years 9 weeks ago [Body] Read it in his voice. Touche, sir... [Title]

Output: It's semantics, but


Input: [Date] 4 years 17 weeks ago [Body] and it's nice to hear from an attorney's point of view. The underlying question, though, is still whether or not the NCAA will treat tsio as they've treated the non-giants of the college game. This may be how they're normally treated, but for Tressel....... No but seriously, fire his ass. That guy is an ATTORNEY. [Title]

Output: That's a good article


Input: [Date] 4 years 17 weeks ago [Body] May be that he had an offer from Butler. Apparently that's a good thing these days... [Title]

Output: Most informative part


Input: [Date] 4 years 17 weeks ago [Body] I would say no, because I don't personally think that college hockey cares about conference strength. It hardly shows up in the Pairwise. Also, Miami sux. [Title]

Output: I would say no, because I

Input: [Date] 4 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Does anyone else think that the way people are coming out of the woodworks to talk about them (ignoring the fact that the documentary, you know, just premiered) is a testament to their legacy? Just think - they created the persona of the villain, of the team no one wanted to play or to hear about, and were popular even though they were never champions. And here we are, about 18 years later, and there are still people that villify them and criticize everything they do or say. I mean, best villains, or BEST villains? [Title]

Output: Regarding the Fab Five


Input: [Date] 4 years 19 weeks ago [Body] They just threw that up on YouTube without any copyright infringement? Something seems.....fishy... [Title]

Output: Wait

Input: [Date] 27 weeks 1 day ago [Body] prefer we fill the class to the maximum scholarships available, or just take the right amount for depth and focus on 2016 kids? I ask bc depth isnt that bad in some areas, and perhaps taking a class of 10-12 now would be better then a full 16. Next year 16 spots appear to be open, and with a year of HARBAUGH maybe he has a better chance to grab that elite talent next season. Just curious what everyone else thinks, [Title]

Output: would most everyone


Input: [Date] 43 weeks 7 hours ago [Body] But this was very well thought out and nicely done. I agree that this team needs support. Fans root for their team no matter what. Hell, look the 60 years of Lions football to prove it [Title]

Output: I rarely ever post

Output: ball hawk


Input: [Date] 2 years 3 weeks ago [Body] about Thomas Gordon already? He is a ball hawk and makes plays. i think he will be a large important part of the defense and should be the leader as well. not saying he is the next Ed Reed, but dude is pretty good and probably deserves a mention. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 years 35 weeks ago [Body] the Capital One Bowl already was discussing the otehr day matchups and they wouldnt even be interested in a rematch. they want a game where fan bases are excited to play a new different school and to travel somewhere for that game. both bama and michigan fans already experienced this game in a travel situation and more than likely wont be anxious to do the same thign again. this rematch, even if plausible w a bama loss, wont happen per the $$$$$$$$$$$$ the bowls want [Title]

Output: It wont happen


Input: [Date] 2 years 37 weeks ago [Body] if its not WEbb or TVH this is all just fluff.. and truthfully when there is 20+ kids visiting every weekend for games, the chance of a commit is there every time just based on odds [Title]

Output: i agree 100%


Input: [Date] 2 years 51 weeks ago [Body] but i was all stoked to do an NCAA football league too a few years ago. we did the same thing you are doing format wise and it was terrible. we did it 1 season, all 12 guys hated it and basically it was way too difficult bc of schedules etc. good luck with it, just letting you know my experience with it was very tough. [Title]

Output: Just a warning

Input: [Date] 2 days 12 hours ago [Title] How does this matter? [Body]

Output: We have Jim Harbaugh....Harbaugh. Did people actually click on the link? Caring about this seems like bitching about getting a parking ticket while you were in the lottery office cashing a million dollar ticket


Input: [Date] 4 days 4 hours ago [Title] I don’t think what’s on the phone matters [Body]

Output: The league, through their investigator, asked to see the phone. He responded by destroying the phone. That seems pretty open and shut in terms of obstructing the investigation. If he wanted to argue the phone was not relevant, they had no right to see it, etc. he could have done so through is lawyers/agent. The union also could have steeped in to protect his interest. While that was adjudicated he could have held on to the phone and turned nothing over. He decided not to do that. I am fairly sure if a court issues a search warrant for data you can’t destroy the data and then go back and argue you are innocent of obstruction because the warrant was invalid. The proper approach is to challenge the validity of the warrant not destroy the evidence. I think the same principle applies here.


Input: [Date] 4 days 5 hours ago [Title] The phone thing [Body]

Output: People are really grasping at straws to defend the destruction of the phone. The search could have been narrowed to focus on information relevant to the investigation. I think they even offered that option. It seems like Brady either got poor legal advice or failed to follow it. If the reason for the 4 game suspension centers on the obstruction of the investigation (making the facts around deflate gate irrelevant) the fact that he had the phone destroyed on the day he met with the investigators seems nearly impossible to overcome. Any idea how he can argue his way out of this one? I am going to assume the, “I had personal stuff on the phone I did not want anyway to see, or I always destroy my phone when I get a new one and happened to get one on the exact date I was scheduled for the interview”, is not going to fly in court. Seems like his best move is to take the four games and just move on.


Input: [Date] 1 week 2 days ago [Title] Woodson [Body]

Output: With Woodson on almost every list this got me thinking. Is the following statement true? "Charles Woodson is the greatest Michigan football player of all time" I think my answer would be yes. I know there is a Brady argument but that would really be that Brady is the greatest Patriot or NFL QB. What do you all think?


Input: [Date] 1 week 2 days ago [Title] Agree [Body]

Output: He is the only player on the list where there is really not a choice. The guy was by far the biggest reason we won the title in 2007. Watching him shut down half the field during every game is something I will never forget.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 5 days ago [Title] There is another round [Body]

Output: The model future radar seems to indicate a new line forming this evening and moving through southeast MI between 10 and midnight. The model is showing a couple good sized t storm complexes with big bow echoes. That would imply a significant wind threat (though perhaps not as much of a tornado threat)so I would keep an eye out this evening.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Really? [Body]

Output: The downstairs bar area and the outside features look nice to me. Some of the main floor furniture choices are not my taste but “Relentlessly tacky”? It looks pretty standard for your typical recently built Midwest mansion to me. It’s not like it’s at the Trump level on the tacky scale. I guess I just don’t have your superior sense of style. Are you referring to the design/decorating choices as being relentlessly tacky or the concept of two people having a 10,000 square foot house? Two different issues. If you are talking about the decorating choices it’s always classy to go after your former football coaches wife’s style choices.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 4 days ago [Title] What the heck? [Body]

Output: Nice attack with no evidence or explanation. What bills is he not paying? I am sure he is managing the day to day accounting of the school. Of course a simple google search would tell you that American Promise Schools runs day to day operations. So if the school owes you money you may want to start with them. The only reference to bills not being paid found on the web is something on the red cedar message board from 2012. Do you spend a lot of time over there? You go on to indicate that Jalen is making a ton of money off children. Is he getting paid for his efforts related to the school? I don’t get the impression that this is a money making effort for him but if it is you could at least provide some evidence. Look, if Jalen Rose Academy owes you or some acquaintance money you should deal with the organization that owes the money, American Promise Schools. Jumping on the web to bash Jalen, with no evidence, who likely has nothing to do with the day to day operations, is weak. I heard a rumor that Jalen Rose Academy is not paying the bills of some contractor owned by an mgoborad commentator named HarbaughorBust. Apparently they do lousy work and then sue their customers to collect on work not completed. I’ll praise HarbaughorBust for all his great comments on Michigan but it’s just not OK for corrupt contractors to steal from schools. See how easy it is to put a random attack on the internet?


Input: [Date] 9 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Colorado [Body]

Output: Though the South Carolina flag is cool. Colorado also has the best license plate in my opinion. The current main Michigan plate is a disaster


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 2 days ago [Title] 0.7% [Body]

Output: This growth rate inlcudes immigration. The most recent data on fertility rate in the US was 1.88 in 2012. This is significantly below the 2.1 needed for replacement. Immigration is the only reason we have population growth currently in the US. Of course regarding football I suspect immigrants are less likely to buy season tickets relative to the native population. I do agree with the individual who felt we may see some migration back north in coming years due to water/climate issues. I would also point out that the extended period of a weak Michigan and Midwest economy may eventually makes Michigan a lower cost option for businesses looking to relocate. I don’t think this overrides the overall population trends combined with the declining level of interest in attending games from the younger generation. I am not declaring doom and gloom here just arguing that we are likely at the peak of demand for Michigan football tickets. This demand will bounce around based on annual performance but is unlikely to see a big uptick necessitating increasing capacity in a substantial way. Put anouther way I don't think investing university funds in further expansion of the stadium is a good move based on the long-term outlook.


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Don’t see a need to grow [Body]

Output: I don’t think the overall capacity of the stadium expands much if any in the future. There are several reasons for this. Population growth in Michigan was just 0.27% over the last four years. The US population growth rate is at its lowest level in forever at 0.7% annually. I don’t see this trend reversing and believe that Michigan will likely peak in population in the next 10 to 20 years while the US will peak in the next 20 to 40 years. The trend of ever growing population in this country (and eventually the world) is soon over. Beyond the basic lack of new people we also will begin to see the baby boomers begin age to the point that they no longer are able to attend games. The next big generation, the millennials, appears to have a lower interest level in attending football games, or at least having season tickets. It does not appear that the demand is going to be there to support a larger stadium. The real problem is likely to be how we fill the capacity we have in coming years.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Rushed not raised [Body]

Output: Though it was lowered soon after that


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Bo's last OSU game? [Body]

Output: I believe the field was raised for OSU 89


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 2 days ago [Title] They correct for both [Body]

Output: I remember reading somewhere that the time adjustment for GPS must account for both the speed of the satellites and the change in Gravity. I believe the adjustment due to gravity is greater then the adjustment related to speed


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Overly harsh? [Body]

Output: An above average Michigan quarterback, greatest former Michigan QB to play in the NFL who is also kind of a douche? You have a low standard for overly harsh. Also not having blind loyalty to Tom Brady and not being a fan of his team does not mean I don't wish former Michigan athletes well. Not a Jets fan. Are you a Patriots fan?


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Enough about Brady [Body]

Output: The number of Brady worshipers on here is annoying. I realize many of you are younger than me and have not had the opportunity to see much success lately. That being said, turning Brady into model of Michigan success is kind of pathetic. He was a slightly above average Michigan quarterback who was drafted in the sixth round. Brady led us to a 3 loss season and a 2 loss season. Between 1980 and 2007 Michigan had 18 season equal or better then what Brady generated. He is not the greatest Michigan quarterback ever. He is the best former Michigan quarterback to play in the NFL. Good for him. Being a Michigan fan does not require being a Tom Brady fan. Many Michigan fans don’t like the Patriots, Belichick or really care for Tom Brady. Personally I feel the guy comes across as a douche most of the time. Great pro quarterback but holding him up as a paragon of virtue is a bit much. Also please note that attacks on Tom Brady have nothing to do with Michigan. They guy has been gone for 15 years. If you are a Patriots fan I can understand the rage. Take your comments to a Patriot blog and rage on. From the Michigan fan perspective, who gives a crap? Hopefully the upcoming Harbaugh seasons will allow many of you to get over your Brady infatuation.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I realize this make no sense [Body]

Output: But as a life long Browns fan I am at a point where I hate everything about this team and organization. Is there any redeeming value in being a Browns Fan?


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 1 day ago [Title] The problem with the number [Body]

Output: Starts with the one in 3.5 million number. Individuals who never fly are being counted there. General aviation has a very high accident rate relative to other forms of travel. The odds of someone being in two small plane crashes are still really low but not that low. Google tells us the following: Car travel has 0.588 fatalities per million hours driven Airline travel has 1.6 fatalities per million hours flown General aviation has 11.2 fatalities per million hours flown


Input: [Date] 18 weeks 3 days ago [Title] This is confusing [Body]

Output: You can be fired by the British for being too British? Screaming at someone for 30 minutes because they can't magically reopen the kitchen for you seems like normal behavior for an old British dude. What's next. Are they going to fire someone for yelling at some waiter in Paris for not speaking English?


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 8 hours ago [Title] This is the worst advice ever [Body]

Output: Don't hire a lawyer and throw yourself on the mercy of the court? I'm sure the local prosecutor (an elected official in a high profile case) will respect that and go easy on you. Of course that felony conviction on your record won't cause you any problems with future employers once you explain how you did the right thing and did not hide behind a lawyer.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 9 hours ago [Title] No reason to fight [Body]

Output: Unless the prosecutor wants to get carried away and push for a felony conviction. Me guess is they will take any deal that avoids a felony on their record. Cooperate, take a big fine, lots of community service maybe a few weekends in jail. That would be a fair punishment and my guess is such a deal will be worked out relatively quickly. Now if the prosecutor insist on a felony conviction then you will see a fight. That seems like a waste of resources and prosecutorial grandstanding however. A relatively painful plea deal to a misdemeanor seems most likely. Form the kids perspective even spending the summer in Jail should be preferable to a felony.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 3 days ago [Title] The loss of youth football [Body]

Output: Losing Pop Warner and other youth football should not do that much damage to the game. The only concern is the trend where parents have their kids specialize in a sport year round at an early age. High School is the big risk as that is essentially a required feeder into college programs. Any decline in football will be a long term event. You could see some states (California most likely) see a large number of school districts give up on the game due to legal/insurance cost and health concerns. It would not surprise me to see some southern states (TX, AL, etc.) jump to the defense of the sport and attempt to legislatively limit the liability of youth and high school football organizations. In the end the sport becomes increasingly regional and popularity falls. I am not arguing that football goes away in the next ten years. It is very possible that the game has reached its peak in popularity and will be begin a slow decline that plays out over the next 25 to 50 years.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Same thing for me [Body]

Output: One of the first companies I worked for had an investment banking operation. The guys on that side of the business were very vocal about every e-mail being discoverable and making sure you would be comfortable testifying about it in court. They also pointed out that looking at your e-mail from the perspective of an attorney who was not on your side provides a good guide to what you should and should not say as well as how you say it. At this point the only e-mail I send around potentially controversial and highly sensitive topics is “call me”


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Electronic Communication [Body]

Output: This may sound a little paranoid but why can’t people figure out that nothing is really private once it’s in electronic form. Think your boss is incompetent, a customer is an a hole, a co-worker is hot? Need to organize a cover-up of some illegal recruiting activities or bury an untimely arrest of a key player? Don’t put this in a freakin e-mail. That racist or sexist joke that was just so funny you had to share – e-mail, twitter, Facebook is probably not a good idea. That hilarious picture of you taking a massive bong hit. You might not want that to live forever on the internet. Before you place anything on-line or in an e-mail just assume that anyone you don’t want to see it will. If you have questionable things you want to share and/or discuss with others try talking face to face or using a phone. This is not to excuse the reprehensible behavior of taking photos of passed out girls but merely to point out how stupid people seem to be about modern communication technology.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Why is this so hard to figure out? [Body]

Output: 1) Don’t do illegal and/or morally reprehensible things 2) If you do engage in these activities it might not be a good idea to document them and post evidence on-line. Society does appreciate that your level of stupidity makes it much easier to identify and punish you though.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Who are these Hoke & RR Individuals? [Body]

Output: I think we just beat Tim Tebow in a bowl game and now Jim Harbaugh is our coach. Everything seems great to me. I do need to figure out who these children are and why they are in my house. Other than that this approach seems to be working fine for me. You should try it out.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] That's not what I was saying [Body]

Output: I am not into simply not questioning rules because they are the rules. I think we have too many laws and too many people under the thumb of the criminal justice system. I believe in many cases our system is creating more harm then it is preventing. They player made a mistake and will suffer the consequences. At the same time I don't think the current approach of liberally applying alcohol bans to individuals on probation is good policy. Bringing this up and having a little debate about it in the context of this story is not blaming the punishment.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Problem with Assume [Body]

Output: They are of course right that essentially everyone who gets a DUI has drank and drove in the past. The legal system however is supposed to be based on evidence and what they can prove. Assumptions should not be part of it. I just don't think the legal system is the most effective way to deal with substance abuse. When an individual's behavior harms others or creates string potential for harm (they break the law) the legal system should issue punishment. Substance abuse that does not do this should be handled as a public health issue. Testing as a condition of probation tends to push the substance abuse issue more towards the legal side as opposed to the public health side. That's basically why I am against the concept


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Understand why he is suspended [Body]

Output: At the same time the alcohol testing as part of probation is BS. It's not illegal to drink. It's illegal to drink and drive. Suspend his license and fine him. If he does it again throw the hammer down and put him in jail for awhile. Making drinking essentially illegal for people who are on probation seems like a way to trap people in the justice system and provide work for probation officers and funding for testing companies. I also doubt it reduces drunk diving. The goal should be to stop drunk driving. We tried to outlaw drinking in the past and it did not work. In a perfect world people would follow their probation terms to the letter but that's not what happens. Instead we spend tons of money keeping people in the criminal justice system with questionable effectiveness. The goal is to keep people from drinking and driving, not drinking. If someone has a drinking problem that is not really the society's business. You can't force someone to give up drinking. We can provide support when they do decide to quit but using the criminal justice system to make them stop is not the answer. End rant


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Being careful and slow change [Body]

Output: It is fine to be careful and think about the ramifications of change if that is really what's happening. The other way to look at that is that those making the money today are using that argument to protect their interest and drag out change until they retire. As for the non-revenue sports why is it the responsibility of the revenue athletes to subsidize them? It's great that the AD's and presidents claim support for non-revenue sports but why do I suspect they would not be willing to kick in some of their salary to support them if the revenue support subsidy (provided by the student athletes) went away


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I learned how standards work on my first dirt bike when I was 12 or so, and it wasn't hard to translate that into driving a stick. The first car I really drove extensively was my ex-gf's father's 944 in high school. [Title]

Output: I learned how standards work


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I understand the law completely, and I stand by my point. A free-rider criticizing those who pay for the good they are consuming for free is an interesting concept. [Title]

Output: I understand the law


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I find it interesting that someone advocating an illegal alternative would strike such a holier than thou tone, but that's just me. [Title]

Output: I find it interesting that


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 3 days ago [Body] What I never understood is how "cocksucker" became a derogatory term. It seems to me that, no matter your orientation, they are doing a service to somebody. Are you anti-blowjob? Seems to me like they should be praised for the good they are doing society. Cowherd, on the other hand, is awful. [Title]

Output: I think you have it wrong


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Something about this seems weird. [Title]

Output: Something about this seems


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 5 days ago [Body] The mere mention of Draftageddon has me excited for the coming season. HARBAUGH! [Title]

Output: Draftageddon!

Output: Assuming that Wuxia films


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Utilities are absolutely "national security stuff," and they should be more than fretting about the "possibility" that their systems may be compromised. [Title]

Output: Utilities are absolutely


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 1 day ago [Body] From a national security perspective, this pales in comparison to what Snowden released. And I'm saying this as one of the affected. [Title]

Output: From a national security


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Dad bought it when I was 13 (1999) and we spent the next couple of years restoring it. Convinced him to drop a 351C in place of the 302 it came with stock. Pros: chick magnet, a ton of fun to drive Cons: cop magnet, 13MPG, no A/C Never going to get rid of it. Too many memories. [Title]

Output: '68 Mercury Cougar


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Or in this case we do know who is reading it, which is instructive. [Title]

Output: Or in this case we do know


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 4 days ago [Body] It seems to me that you and I will never agree, since the core of my argument is that the playoffs should be decided by series (7 game series at that) in order to determine who is the better team. Short series and the spacing between the games allow teams to roll out their aces twice a series, whereas longer series are a test of depth. Baseball has always been about the depth of teams. That is why the regular season is so long, and that is why until recently it was considered absurd to have anything but series. I don't entirely disagree with you and see that there is some merit to your reasoning, but I disagree with you entirely that these benefits outweigh the assault on the very core of the game itself. There are 162 games in the regular season, and if one wildcard makes it in by a couple games over the next best ones, then so be it. Just like the Braves, they could have helped themselves by winning their games. [Title]

Output: It seems to me that you and I


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 4 days ago [Body] I understand these arguments, but I think some of the positive components of what you outline are overridden by what happened in 2012 during the first iteration of this format. A 94 win Braves team had to play an 88 win Cardinals team and ultimately lost a game played under protest due to one of the worst calls I have ever seen. Anyone who watched that game - which wasn't many because it started at 5PM on a Friday - should understand why a one game anything in baseball is not tenable; precisely because of that randomness. That the Cards went on to win the WS is a moot point, as they had no business being given equal treatment to a team that had a 6 game advantage on them, which played in a superior division, and which had won 5 of the 6 games against the Cardinals that season. Any benefit is far outweighed by the above being allowed to happen. [Title]

Output: I understand these arguments,


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 4 days ago [Body] An individual baseball game is more "random" because there are far more variables at work than there are in basketball, for example, where the same 6-8 guys play the same 6-8 other who run more or less the same plays. In baseball the batter-pitcher matchup, coupled with just how difficult it is for the offense to score in general produces such outcomes. I think baseball would be less "random" if the playoffs were as inclusive as other leagues, where the top 6-8 from the AL/NL each make it and they play a 7 game series (5 game series are too short IMO). In that scenario I think the better teams would win out at a similar rate as in football. That being said, I would hate that as a baseball fan. I think the 1 game play-in game is an abomination that should be strapped to an ICBM and launched into the sun. [Title]

Output: Baseball is somewhat random

Input: [Date] 11 weeks 1 day ago [Body] In the student section right behind a group of 30 or so PSU fans that were huge assholes to everyone around them the entire time. I can't believe how many M students sold their tickets during fall break; A2 was INFESTED with PSU bros that weekend. They were out on South U and elsewhere picking fights and whatnot the Friday before. Funny how they didn't seem to be around on Saturday night. This is when I lost all respect for PSU, well before the most recent...events. This and Braylonfest were the two best live moments in sports for me. That Saturday was one of the biggest party nights that took place while I was at M. I think because it was a generally terrible season to that point and the game ended at night the student body turned it up to 11. [Title]

Output: In the student section right


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 2 days ago [Body] If I'm not mistaken that correction has to do with the speed of the satellite in orbit being faster than the speed of someone standing on the surface. The same principle would apply if you placed a clock on an extremely tall tower - the top is rotating faster than the base. These are two different principles at work here. Says that guy who's never taken physics, anyway (me). [Title]

Output: If I'm not mistaken that


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 2 days ago [Body] At some point doesn't the University have to consider how far it is willing to go to remain competitive in this environment? I think we have two great coaches in Harbaugh and Beilein, but as the years go on, Michigan will be challenged in its ability to do things the right way while also remaining competitive. I think we are currently very near the edge of the envelope. [Title]

Output: At some point doesn't the

Input: [Date] 11 weeks 5 days ago [Body] This is the same coaching staff who set up shop at Penn State right after the Sandusky-related NCAA sanctions were imposed. As far as antics go, I wouldn't put anything past Beckman. [Title]

Output: This is the same coaching


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I think my senior year (07-08) was probably the last year you could really sneak in as a late night destination. They kept everything locked, but we found a tree next to the fence on the on the Crisler side that was helpful in getting over the fence. Depending on the security guard's enthusiasm and weather, you could get a lot of time in on the field. It was pretty epic after a fresh snow. The best part is that the security lights were bright enough for you to see pretty well. I'm sure it's totally different now. Thanks, Dave Brandon. [Title]

Output: I think my senior year

Input: [Date] 13 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I was just in Tbilisi, though Yerevan is great too. I of course read mgoblog while there so at least for a time there's two mgobloggers in the Caucasus. EDIT: Okay, now there are at least three. EDIT EDIT: I accidentally upvoted myself, so rather than living with that shame I downvoted myself. [Title]

Output: I was just in Tbilisi, though


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I'm not really sure they are at a disadvantage in recruiting because Michigan is running a series of half day camps in the South. Auburn is permanently located in Alabama, so I don't think things have changed. Plus they pay their players, etc. They are just whining because they are babies. Also I think it's hilarious that Auburn thinks it is a bigger name than Michigan. [Title]

Output: I'm not really sure they are


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I had similar experience too, and it was an extremely bizarre feeling. On one hand I wanted us to ruin what I perceived at the time to be a small chance they would make the playoffs, just so I could be assured that they wouldn't win it all. On the other, I felt as you described - I needed Michigan to lose to ensure Hoke wouldn't be retained. I don't know if I was happy, but I sure wasn't upset about the whole thing. I hope I never have to feel like that again. [Title]

Output: I had similar experience too,

Output: It's in Grand Haven, so it's close, and everything i've ever tried from them has been excellent. When you're there, you have to try Bean Flicker, which is a coffee flavored blonde, and the Black Citra IPA if they have it on tap.

Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Filpulla would be 5th in points on the wings [Body]

Output: And they could easily fit him in if they weren't paying the corpses of Franzen and Weiss to not play hockey the last 2 years. They signed Weiss to literally the same contract as Filpulla and got zero out of him. That's a giant fuck up


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Title] They gave up a top 50 prospect [Body]

Output: but if you are OK with just throwing those guys away for literally nothing, then it's a fine deal


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 hour ago [Title] That's being a bit generous [Body]

Output: either that or you've forgotten about signing Weiss, or trading for Legwand, or lettting Filpulla go, or going half a decade needing to add defense and somehow not managing to do it once. He's drafted well and managed to not make any super nova fuck ups with a core of established players but it's a stretch to say he's done a particularly good job lately, especially considering his great drafting is due in large part to Andersson's excellent scouting. It's probably time for him to move on to greener pastures and let someone who can actually go out and get some free agent or trade help take over. He's set them up nicely for the future, but the team is going to need a change of leadership from the top down if it wants to bring this young group of players to cup contention.

Input: [Date] 20 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Steiber is a beast [Body]

Output: Like, historic beast. He's a 3 time champ already, going for 4 this year, and he would only be the fourth wrestler in history to win 4 NCAA titles. I'm not sure on an exact count but I'm pretty sure he's lost less than 10 matches since starting high school, and most of them were close matches to older, multi-championship winning wrestlers like David Taylor.
