Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] That's the kind of thing that happens when you have options, know you have options , and don't like your boss. To be able to say that a get away with it is hilarious and definitely helps put in context the 49er's constant attempts to bring him down a notch or two(which have been hilariously ineffective).

Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] From my vague recollections(book five came out a while ago and wasn't that good, so I didn't obsessively 're-read it the way I did the first 3). I think you have to be touched by an infected part. Someone with better knowledge of it is welcome to correct me if I'm off base. [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Oh my God! You mean a show with zombies and dragons and other magical shit in a fake world isn't real?!?! Are you sure?!?! If you want to rub my face in how much more sophisticated you are than me, maybe try something other than you know it's not real, right? I am.perfectly aware it's not real, but I happen to think showing a dramatic.killing of a child is a bit much and a creative decision I don't feel like supporting or one that adds much to the show, but certainly adds to the.nihilism criticism that I have been fighting off for a while now. So with all due love and respect, go take a long walk off a short pier. [Title]

Output: Oh my God! You mean a show


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] One in which they chose to do something awful that I didn't like very much. Wwe're asked to swallow a ton of negative carp to watch it and now, for me, the price is too high for the entertainment value. I first read Game of Thrones in 1997. I have loved the books and the shows for a long time and I just can't do it anymore, maybe my language was a bit much, but I am tired of the most awful thing that can happen being guaranteed to be the thing that will happen. [Title]

Output: One in which they chose to do

Output: grrrrr


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I am so heartbroken. I Loved this show, but I just cannot watch it anymore. That was a bridge WAY too fucking far! The rape two weeks ago and now this are just too awful, terrible nihilistic character decisions that do nothing artistically. What a disappointment, this makes me question whether I even like the books anymore. [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Eh, I think the fault here lies with Fisch, the flyer didn't need to bring up a direct head to head comparison, just sell your qualifications and call it good the comparison will make itself. I like most of what the staff is doing recruiting-wise, but this was a mis-fire. [Title]

Output: I thought it was Amanda


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 6 days ago [Body] There are two things I like about this approach: 1. it indicates to kids that the coaches want them to succeed and are willing to help them develop their talents no matter where they ultimately lay. 2. Eventually it's a great way to build up dpth in the program, to take versatile guys and plug them in where they're needed and have guys flexible enough to ask them to fill in elsewhere. The one thing I worry about a little is that this is an approach that would seem to rely on depth already being built up to afford that flexibility and I don't know that the program is there. Regardless it's good to get talented players on board and it's really fun to see the camp circuit already paying off. [Title]

Output: There are two things I like


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 15 hours ago [Body] While I don't begrudge anyone the opportunity to get wined and dined, I'll take this as a "soft" commitment at best and hope the coaches have a plan "B" in place. Onwenu is an exciting prospect and I'd love to have him join the program but I do wonder why you would "commit" anywhere and then go look around if you're not sure. It's not like he was about to lose his spot and there was pressure on him to reserve it. [Title]

Output: While I don't begrudge anyone


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 15 hours ago [Body] Both are great and I don't think there's a huge difference between the two in terms of gaming it may just come down to which one you think more of their friends will be on. Alternatively you can see which one has exclusives that work better with their interests. If they like baseball games, Playstation has the exclusive on the only one worth playing. [Title]

Input: [Date] 8 weeks 16 hours ago [Body] I eventually broke down and bought the prima game guide, felt a little bit like cheating but it helped me a LOT, especially with the tough parts like obtaining your first silver sword. Once you get used to how everything works it gets a lot better, but the menu functions and the maps are ridiculously poorly oranized. They really fixed a lot of these issues in Witcher 3, which is good as Witcher 2 took some time to get into due to those issues you describe. [Title]

Output: I eventually broke down and


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 17 hours ago [Body] While I don't think you'll lose out on anything by waiting(I can't wait for Arkham Knight either), The Witcher 3 is incredible and well worth playing. The story is compelling, combat is just challenging enough, and there's an insane amount of content. I can't recommend it highly enough and it's a definite imporvement on The Witcher 2(which was good, but nothing like this). [Title]

Input: [Date] 8 weeks 2 days ago [Body] 1) Already established through several storylines, but given a good close-up in the Arya storyline, especially when she gets kidnapped by Gregor. In this case I don't think it added anything. 2) Established through Cersei's chapters and could have been given more weight in the Jaime storyline as well(although that too is a lot of pointless wandering, somewhat forgiven only because he's funny). I'll admit 3 is interesting, but am not sure we needed however many pages of Brienne's storyline to establish it. Look, I love the books, the characters are compelling and the world is vast and rich and very well-designed and I don't begrudge anyone their enjoyment of the storylines I thought were eye-rolling wastes of time. That said, one of the things I loved about the show this year was it's ability to act like an editor and cut through Martin's severe writer's block. There's a lot to like about books four and five, but I feel that they are weakened by his letting the scope of the story get out of control. Given that there's only two seasons left after this giving any weight to storylines that have little impact on the main plot compared to their screentime seems like they're going creatively backwards and would be a disappointment. [Title]

Output: I get it, but...

Input: [Date] 8 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Nooooo!!!!!! The fact they blew past the iron islands and Brienne's pointless wandering bullshit was one of my favorite things about the show this season and moving forward. They only have two more seasons please tell me they won't fuck around with that crap. I love Martin's writing, but there was a lot the TV show can still make right. I really don't want them to make the same mistakes. [Title]

Input: [Date] 8 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I think the issue is that it's hard to hang your hat on any of the under 26 guys as a building block. The V-Mart, Miggy, and Verlander deals are going to be millstones soon if they area already. There is just a lot that has to be done and hopefully they can build up another good core and then supplement. I think the Tigers have shown they can be a power and won't be down for long, but we're probably in for a couple of rough years. [Title]

Input: [Date] 9 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Or both his parents can push so hard that it makes him double down on Michigan. If nothing else, he'll be forced to think about and defend his position and I have a feeling it will still play out well for the good guys. We've seen the opposite where parents push hard for M and the guy still goes where he wants to go. Might as well have this play out Michigan's way for once. [Title]

Output: Or both his parents can push


Input: [Date] 9 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I don't think it will, I think from the show runners perspective he's too good of a villain to lose until the big bads get in the frame. It's too bad though as most viewers have lost pati nice with him in a major way. It's not like he's a love to hate villain the way Roose might be, he's just an unpl wasn't watch. [Title]

Input: [Date] 9 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I know when I was playing(high school, nothing impressive), I hated trap plays because it forced a read and then a quick change to take on the blocker vs. My preferred "fly through the line and cause havoc" approach(As I was an undersized d-lineman). I agree they're a very effective counter/constraint type play and look forward to seeing them deployed effectively. [Title]

Input: [Date] 9 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Oy! Hopefully this is a Florida St. type situation in which the bones of the program are good and a new coach can get it going again relatively quickly. Still it's a bad sign when the guys who are suppossed to be next years building blocks are going for the escape hatches as quickly as possible. [Title]

Input: [Date] 9 weeks 6 days ago [Body] In the first case of Ohio St. Turnover luck applies. IIRC there were several promising drives that ended due to either turnovers or an inability to kick a field goal that basically made fourth downs mandatory. In the case of Miss. St. the team was done, I remember the ball moving pretty well in the first half until the defenses inability to do anything of consequence led to what was basically, "Here we go again" and the team went into a shell. According to stats the offense was pretty great that year, but it did seem to fizzle against any half decent opponent and the inability to really hold onto the ball kept getting the all-time worst defense exposed. It's not really cherry-picking vs. perhaps an insufficient acknowledgment of how bad the team was. [Title]

Output: In the first case of Ohio St.

Input: [Date] 10 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Arizona is basically the Michigan St. of the PAC-12 with obnoxious fans with major chips on their shoulders and a terrible stadium and home atmosphere. Rodriguez is a good coach who will do very well there and while I like Rodriguez, I really want 'Zona to be no better than perenially 6-6 to 8-4(and thats only because of Rodriguez). [Title]

Output: UCLA fan, so not even a little bit.


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I came to Michigan for my MBA and have always been a huge sports fan so it was pretty natural for me to add following Michigan to my repertoire. I also decided to live here after completing my MBA and thus am always surrounded by it. Just happened a bit by accident and osmosis, but now even if I move I will still be a die-hard and will ensure the kids keep singing, "The Victors". [Title]

Output: I came to Michigan for my MBA


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 2 days ago [Body] It absolutely was part of the overall story of Ramsay's wedding night with continued proof of his being a psychotic bastard. Did it happen to Samsa in the books, no but it did happen to someone else. So it was part of the story. [Title]

Output: It absolutely was part of the


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 2 days ago [Body] This is exactly my point. Martin BADLY needed an editor for books four and five and I feel like the show is performing that function, if not especially elegantly. If it pisses him off, GREAT! Maybe that'll get him to to listen to criticism instead of deciding it's all fluff trying to get him to write faster. [Title]

Output: This is exactly my point.


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I have read it once....and was mad that I did, the scene was arguably worse in the books. Martin had built a compelling world and characters but he is clearly working out some issues as he totally dwells on scenes like this. The takeover of the shield islands being another example of his penchant for going too far with this stuff. [Title]

Output: I have read it once....and


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Just have the brotherhood without banners do the plot line without Lady Stoneheart it won't change much as long as Thoros is around. [Title]

Output: Just have the brotherhood


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I think they have to deviate from the books in order to ensure they can keep the attention of the TV audience and keep the story moving. The last two books are just complete and total messes in terms of the scope of the story and narrative progress and if there's some narrative discipline being applied to the TV series it's all to the better. [Title]

Output: I think they have to deviate


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Agree, we all know Ramsay is an asshole and what happened on the wedding night can be discussed later or aluded to, [Title]

Output: Agree, we all know Ramsay is


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Yeah, I pretty much hated it, I mean I know it's part of the story, but by this point we all get that certain people are just shit and it can be implied instead of shown. [Title]

Output: I hope there's a path for him


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Agreed, but most in the military know that most of that is window dressing. If you're connected or a "performer" a DUI is kep quiet if it's at all possible. Then the others get crucified when they get caught, so appearrances can be maintained. Minick may have thought he was going to be fine as he was connected and knew nothing was ever really going to happen to him. I would also argue that the message gets repeated so many times that eventually people tune it out. [Title]

Output: Agreed, but most in the


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I can get behind the license suspensiuon over it, but attaching any legal prosecution issues to it is MAJORLY problematic constitutionally. Revoking a privilege is fine(if not my favorite thing either, as someone may just be cantankerous or doesn't want an arguably inaccurate test to determine his or her fate and losing a privilege for a year for that seems.....excessive), but the criminal penalties associated with DUI are (rightly) so severe that assigning them simply based on a refusal to take a test just cannot be justified, with or without the fifth amemdment. As always I ask, what if it was you in this situation, what sort of legal protection would you want? [Title]

Output: I can get behind the license


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I say this as an Air Force vet, the military culture is defined by two things in relation to alcohol: 1. Alcohol is often an integral part of group events and is used quite often(which I don't necessarily have a big problem with as god knows I participated in that quite willingly and had a lot of good times through it), it does lead to an issue where you don't know if you have friends or drinking buddies. 2. If you get a DUI in the military, it will either get swept under the rug or get you crucified depending on how connected you are. If you're a "performer" or buddies with the commanders you're typically fine. If you're not in those groups your career is over. This may have led Minick to assume the same rules apply on the outside and so he may have honestly been surprised to see this become a thing. [Title]

Output: Military has a big-time alcohol culture


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I get taking contrary opinions and most of the ones you have on here aren't terrible surface-level observations, but you seem to be getting torn apart on counter-arguments and your need to respond to each one isn't a good look. Every once in a while you may just want to let it rest. [Title]

Output: Sometimes you just need to admit you're losing


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Anyone with half a brain knows to refuse the breathalyzer if pulled over for DUI. If anything that makes me think he's even more likely to be guilty. I get the impulse to wait until the facts come out, but I'm not sure it's going to help anything. [Title]

Output: Refusing a breathalyzer likely means guilt


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 6 days ago [Body] There's no way this isn't a big deal for the guy who is suppossed to be in charge of discipline for the program. I'd expect there to be a "mutual resignation" before everything plays out. You just can't have this sort of thing happen and let it slide for the person in charge of discipline. A coach may get away with it, but not the Director of operations. [Title]

Output: There's no way this isn't a

The other one would be starting a small flying school out in Colorado/Wyoming. Now to just convince my wife that we can live in a small town and just above the poverty line so I can chase my dream of living with almost no responsibility! [Title]

Output: I would love to go back to


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 5 days ago [Body] There's continuing to pursue someone heavily when you think you have a chance and then there's continued checking in as a courtesy when you get the sense they're not interested. I think this is the latter. I actually don't mind it as it is all about how you use your recruiting resources. If there's bad vibes from Corpey then put the press on someone else who may be more receptive. Given how Michigan will still be playing from behind with a lot of these guys, it's probably the best way to go. [Title]

Output: There's continuing to pursue

Output: It has always been like that.


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 2 days ago [Body] So far I really like what they're doing. There is just a ton of fat in books four and five that they're either doing away with altogether or combining from multiple storylines. The bones are still in place, but it feels like this is what Martin would have written if he had an editor who would have been willing to challenge him over the past couple of years. Frankly, so far I like this version better. [Title]

Output: So far I really like what


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 2 days ago [Body] Vague speculation on where the show might go based on book info below: I have a feeling D+D are cutting through the famed "Meerenese Knot" with an axe and not playing the little game Martin did in the books by drawing out an insanely boring and overwrought timeline. Therefore as important Selmy is to the events in Mereen, if they decide to not even have events in Mereen he may become far less important. [Title]

Output: Vague speculation on where


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I'm pretty sure I know the one you're talking about and while that would be cool, I'm not sure I buy it. There's a lot to support it, but there's a lot that would be inconsistent with how the world has been set up. That said, it would be REALLY cool if true and would give a way to answer a lot of questions. [Title]

Output: I'm pretty sure I know the


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I actually think the show runners are having similar thoughts. Books 4+5 are just not as good as the first three and the story is BLOATED. I am fully on board with them tightening the story up and moving it along. As they're not dealing with a combo platter of writers block and telling editors to go to hell. [Title]

Input: [Date] 14 weeks 5 days ago [Body] For my 21st birthday we went to Charley's. It was the night Michigan lost to Louisville in the National Championship game. The line for Insomnia Cookies was longer than the bar. A fight broke out outside and everyone got kicked out. We drank sad beer at our apartment and went to bed. Another bad one was at the Village Pisco in Manhattan. We got there about 15 min before happy hour ended and quickly ordered drinks, but our waitress was too slow and didn't get them into the computer in time. So our drinks were full price and the waitress and manager refused to give us the happy hour discount despite the fact it was completely their fault. Then I ordered this thing on the menu that had some grand description of sausage and fries with a house sauce. I get my food and its literally 2 microwaved hot dogs, some fries, and ketchup. And it was over $10. [Title]

Input: [Date] 20 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Try everything until you can pinpoint the styles that you like and go from there. I did this and discovered that I'm not a huge fan of IPA's, I hate sours, don't care for helles, can't handle bourbon barrel aged beers, and I'm pretty indifferent to most brown/blonde ales. Knowing what you don't really like can help eliminate a lot of choices and make the store/bar less overwhelming. I'm not saying to never try an IPA again if you don't like them, but knowing it isn't your style can help ease the "getting into beer" process. Personally I've found that I get along pretty well with anything dark, most stuff with a strong yeasty element, and anything with a kick of coffee. So stouts (especially nitro), porters, black lagers, dunkelweizens, hefeweizens, trippels, saisons, etc are some things I enjoy. Some of my personal favorites right now are Right Brain CEO Stout, Oddside Ales Bean Flicker, Dragonmead Final Absolution, Left Hand Nitro Milk Stout, Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier Dunkel, North Peak Hullabaloo Chocolate Wheat, and New Holland Monkey King. Don't just lock yourself into what you know though. Try some new and weird stuff every now and then. I really enjoy Shorts Nicie Spicie and Wowee Zowee despite them not really falling into a category that I consider myself to like. I also recommend using something to keep track of what you've had. I personally like Untappd. [Title]

Output: Try everything until you can


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 11 hours ago [Body] Your eyes are healthy, congrats. You're correct that doing refractions for glasses and basic glaucoma screening isn't rocket science. However, walk into an optometrist's office with a pathology requiring treatment and I think you'd appreciate them more. Sure, they may end up referring you out to an ophthamologist for treatment, but an optometrist's ability to find, diagnose, and treat problems can be the difference between keeping and losing your vision. Sorry if I sound butthurt, but I work in a clinic that employs both optoms and MD/DOs and the optoms do a whole lot more than the healthy patient will ever know. And I don't see how OD and MD/DO is the same designation. Sure they're both "Doctors", but on the same token Harbaugh and your local high school special teams coordinator are both "coaches". It's not hard to see which is more prestigious. [Title]

Then of course, there's the typical Markley stuff like hallway mini-golf tournaments, smuggling in booze, and leaving for class in the morning to find matresses and puke in the hallway. Stockwell was much tamer, only fun thing that happened there was my friend passing out in the elevator only wearing his underwear, eventually waking up, then knocking on my door in the middle of the night to ask if he could sleep on our futon. Spent some time in West Quad and Couzens as a counselor for a summer program for high school students, but I'll leave out those stories as some of the kids involved might be on the blog now. [Title]

Output: *This year's 350.


Input: [Date] 47 weeks 4 days ago [Body] IMO the rushing performances of last year vs CMU and this App State game aren't even close. Last year the 242 yards came on 47 carries to the tune of 5.1 avg. This year we saw 350 yards on 36 for an avg of 9.7. Last year Gardner had to run for 52 of those yards, this year he had 9. Last year Green had the most yards at 58. This year...170, with Smith at 115. I realize he wasn't trying to compare them as much as he was trying to warn against blowing up expectations, but the performances were vastly different. I don't think his analysis of the run D was totally fair either as it seemed like a lot of those yards came late when Michigan was rotating players through quite heavily and playing defense more vanilla than a sundae with no topings. [Title]

Output: IMO the rushing performances

I'd love to see TeJay do well, but I don't think this tour suits him all that well. I'm excited that some of the famous Roubaix cobbles are getting included. For those not familiar with them, they are serious business. Just imagine riding on this, on a road bike, with 200 other dudes. I'm also a big Cavendish fan, especially after reading his books, and would love to see him take the first stage in the UK. As a sprinter myself, the bunch sprints really excite me with all of the teamwork going on in the last few km leading up to the explosive sprint. As much as I like Cav, I still gotta go with Sagan as the green jersey favorite. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 11 weeks ago [Body] EEB 440/441 - Biology of Fishes and its lab. From what I've heard the class has changed a bit since I took it due to a revolving door of profs, but it was great when I did. The lab was just a series of field trips to local rivers/lakes to catch fish, learn how to identify them, then a short quiz over them the next week before heading out. Took a weekend field trip to the Biostation as well. EEB 487 - Ecology of FIshes. Jim Diana is the man. He's a great teacher and the lab for the class is great as well. On the last day of lab he had us all out to his house for a bbq. Musicology 123 - Intro to Popular Music. A fun class that took a look at music from the times of blackface minstrelsy up to modern music. I actually ended up learning a fair bit, and it was easy. Anthrarc 285 - Frauds and Fantastic Claims in Archaeology. Lisa Young was one of the best profs I had here. The class was great and is what lead to me declaring an Anthrarc minor. We covered topics like Bigfoot, Loch Ness, Troy, ALIENS, and much more. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for social science credits (I think it counted for Race and Ethnicity as well.)

Input: [Date] 1 year 13 weeks ago [Body] Don't do it at Michigan. I know the allure of taking a class here during high school is exciting, but its not worth it IMO as far as both cost and stress you'll endure. Many of my friends have taken every possible measure to not have to take math here. I sailed through calc in high school (AB), then pulled a C- in Calc II my first semester. Its just a whole different ball game. Average scores on exams in the low 50%'s were commonplace. In hindsight I could have tried harder, but it still would not have been fun in the slightest and I'd probably still have gotten some form of C. My friend who took honors calc II had a better time with it, but the ones who had it the best were the ones who took it at WCC or Lansing Community College. I don't mean to rain on your parade, I just don't want your senior year of high school to be a drag, especially since your grade in the class may count if you carry on to enroll as an undergrad. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 13 weeks ago [Body] We could easily qualify as individuals. CX is pretty easy to qualify for as numbers are low, pretty much show up to a few regular season races and you're good to go. The problem is cost. We'd have to pay our own way out to nationals. Also, there tends to be USAC CX races in SE Michigan on the same days as collegiate events, so its a lot easier to drive 45 minutes for a race than 4 hours. It would definitely be neat though and we have a few guys that I wouldn't be shocked if they went for it in the next few years. I know MTB nationals are strongly on the radar for a few of our guys this summer. [Title]

I just don't like the NCAA only enforcing what it wants to/can easily. Monetary shenannigans can provide an on the court benefit via recruiting and what not. A guy who didn't even play smoking some weed, not so much. Yet look which gets punished. I just want things enforced if they're rules. [Title]

Getting paid, posting pictures of all your cash on social media, and driving around in pimped out cars despite coming from a poor neighborhood is all fine according to the NCAA and not even worth looking further into.

Unfortunately I won't be able to watch it live since we have a crit at Notre Dame on Sunday, but I can't wait to watch a recap and/or follow the live text feed. I'll be pulling for Phinney HARD as I always do with the Americans, but I just don't think he's the winner of a monument quite yet. As far as favorites go, I like Fabian. I'd love to see Spartacus and Boonen (or any of the OPQS guys) duke it out. I just love how the classics bring out the badasses of the peloton. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 17 weeks ago [Body] The last few seasons were meh to me and at times frustrating becuase some episodes wouldn't advance the story at all, but at that point I was in way too deep and had to keep watching. I loved the earlier seasons so much that I just had to see it through and find out how he met the damn mother. That being said, I didn't like the finale. We've been leading up to him meeting the mother for years now. Going through relationship after relationship to find "the one". Then in the span of 15-20 minutes they just throw her away and he goes back to Robin. What the hell? It took us so long to get here and Ted finally found his love then boom, she's gone just like that? Really cheapens the whole relationship IMO. I guess I should have seen it coming, but I would have content with a "happily ever after" scenario with the mother ending with them being old and playing bridge or something (would have pulled from an old running joke). And what is up with them being unmarried for 7 years? Seems like a very un-Ted like thing to do. Oh well, its over now. [Title]

Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] You couldn't be more wrong [Body]

Output: In games against Iowa, Wisconsin, and Penn St, we were down less than two touchdowns with plenty of time left. Ask Iowa if the game was "in the bag" when they were up a single score with 10 minutes to play. Or ask Wisconsin if the game was over holding a 10 point lead with over half of the 3rd quarter to play. Again, in many of the games, MSU, Iowa, Wisconsin, we had opportunities to score early, but were stopped by ourselves - as my earlier post mentions: Lewann penalties, Denard int's in the endzone etc. Very few defenses have stopped with any sustained success this season. Or really none for that matter. But you probably wanted to fire RR the moment he and Rita showed up in A2.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] I'll try this [Body]

Output: Against Iowa, our offense dominated all day. The only thing that stopped them was Taylor Lewann Penalties and turnovers. We out gained them easily though whether we were up or down. Against MSU we had at least two (maybe three) first half drives that should have ended in scores but did not - two picks and a missed field goal. Again, not exactly evidence that our offense struggled. Finally, against Wisconsin, Denard over threw an otherwise certain 65+ yard first half touchdown, but not because Wisconsin was too good defensively. I would say that we move the ball fine against any team any time, regardless of game score or clock. However, as a young team, we have displayed a remarkable affinity for drive-ending mistakes. The only team that stops Michigan's offense is Michigan's offense.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] Do Not Blow Up This Offense [Body]

Output: We can not take pages from Notre Dame and Nebraska by firing our coaches every three years and not allowing them time to build a program. It would be one thing if RR had success with Carr's players and continued to do worse with each recruiting class, but clearly his worst year was year one and the progress our offense has made cannot be denied. As frustrating as the defense has been, the whole program will be set back another half decade if Brandon let's RR go and tries to bring in a new coach with a new system. The proof is there people, and the defense will come around.


Input: [Date] 5 years 42 weeks ago [Title] On the Forcier/Denard thing [Body]

Output: I thought Forcier should have been in for the final drive strictly for his command of the 2 minute offense, but at the same time Denard earned a chance to play it out after his previous drive. No time for second guessing it now anyway. Besides, you never know on what snap he might just take it to the house. 5 turnovers in a two-score game is the story, but I don't feel bad about last nights loss at all. I think a tune-up game at home against Delaware St will get us back on track.


Input: [Date] 5 years 45 weeks ago [Title] Agreed [Body]

Output: While watching on TV, it looked like the ball sailed right in front of Matthews' head. If he had been anticipating the pass, it would have been an easy reception. However, it looked like he didn't see the ball until it crossed his field of vision and by that time it was too late. That is just my opinion based on the angle of the play as captured by the TV camera's.


Input: [Date] 5 years 47 weeks ago [Title] Kirk Herbstreit [Body]

Output: Was just on ESPN talking about the whole ordeal, and he might as well have been reading Brian's blog verbatim. It was good to see a former OSU player in front of the Columbus skyline saying positive things about Rodriguez and basically discrediting the whole story. Rosenberg = worse than OSU?

Output: Check out this kid for a possible comparison. He was a true freshman at Colorado last fall, out of Columbus, OH, and ended up having some huge games for the Buffs. He's a tiny little 3-star back that got virtually no looks from anyone in the Big10, including OSU, despite growing up in the Bushole. He also ended up outplaying Darrell Scott, who was by most accounts, the number 1 RB recruit in the nation last year. No one knew who he was until he went wild on WVU in an early season game last year, but he definitely made a name for himself here in Colorado.

Input: [Date] 6 years 14 weeks ago [Title] Spring Game, it's the spring game! [Body]

Output: I have to keep telling my self that because I got admittedly too excited watching Tate hitting those passes. Is it September yet? because I am ready to wash off the stink of 3-9, and that kid looks like he has the talent to do it. Again, trying not to get overly pumped on a few highlights from a scrimmage, but I think it's safe to say we may have player at QB this year. That's gotta be worth a few extra wins (say Toledo and Northwestern) right there.


Input: [Date] 6 years 15 weeks ago [Title] the upside... [Body]

Output: He'll add some much needed depth and leadership to the position. Although he hasn't played football at the college level, 4 years of Duke basketball probably thought him a thing or two about team work and poise. Hopefully he won't start because I'm anxious to see Tate go at it, but if he's an athlete and a competitor he should be an asset to the bench and the locker room. Tate seems like a confident kid, so I don't think this will bother him too much, but admittedly I don't know the kid personally to make that call. In any event, if we have the scholarship available to give away this season, I don't see the downside of using it for a single season. As long there isn't any internal strife over it, I think it will do more good than harm. Also, I'm a desperately optimistic UM fan, so I have to imagine it will work out.


Input: [Date] 6 years 18 weeks ago [Title] I know your tickets cost [Body]

Output: I know your tickets cost more, but don't forget it's the University's football team. If the student population were to petition successfully for a night game, I would say nuts to you old timer. Have another beer and try to stay up past halftime. If the fans from PSU, LSU, OSU, FLA (esp FLA) can handle a night game, there's no reason UM fans can't. Or is it some weird thing were people in Michigan have to work early on Sunday mornings?


Input: [Date] 6 years 18 weeks ago [Title] Some of the Comments are funny [Body]

Output: I've been going to Michigan games all my life, and I love certain aspects of the Big House (like no advertisements), but it tends to be pretty lifeless. Not just quiet, but sort of a dead calm, as if everyone is always waiting for the bottom to fall out or the earth to end. I have been to many other stadiums for ncaa games and nfl games, and the Big House is definitely more like a monastery than a rock concert. Now I understand you don't want actual rock music, but that should be the environment the stadium strives for: loud, raucous, excited and intimidating. It's kind of embarrassing to see 100,000 people so quiet and still sometimes, and nothing is worse than being told to "sit down" during a big play - No, you stand up!. Even Ryan Field (NW) is livelier than Michigan Stadium, and it only seats about 12 people + the band. I'm just saying we can do better, without getting tacky or classless about it.

But as someone who is a C-Bus native, I feel perfectly happy to rip the city, as I could not move away soon enough. And for the campaign, it probably would have generated more goodwill and less negativity had it just said something positive about OSU or referred directly to the 42-7 ass kicking we were handed in November. Instead, it was just a pure dig at one of the best Schools in the country, with one of the most prestigious football programs in the history of the game. Goodwill in a small market is one thing, but there was a lot of outrage among Michigan fans. By my estimation, it may still be have the largest living alumni base of any university in the nation - if that's no longer the case, it's still a shit load of influential people. All and all, not a good move, as proven by the fact that it is coming down asap.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] okay then let me try one more time for you... [Body]

Output: Fact: I grew up in Columbus and feel that OSU fans are by and large assholes who focus on little more than OSU football. Fact: Not every Columbus resident is a football loving nut-job. Therefore, it is inaccurate of me to say that the whole city revolves around nothing more than football. However, it is also accurate for me to say that most of the people I know from that town are Buckeye football crazy and can be pretty ruthless if you don't fall in line. Therefore, I am speaking about my personal experience. My experience in Columbus may not be the universal, but what I found. Do you see how that works? I can make a judgment off an experience that I had, however, it may not be true all the time. That does not make my experience or opinions on the experience wrong.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] no, I am admitting [Body]

Output: that maybe casting a judgment over all Columbus area residents is probably inaccurate, but based on my experiences, I will believe what I stated previously. That's all.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] cherish the rivalry [Body]

Output: definitely the best in sports. a lot of my best friends are OSU fans, season ticket holders, psychopaths, etc. I mentioned the counter only because I have seen frequent references to that number from OSU fans on ESPN blogs, facebook pages, emails, or wherever. It was to illustrate how often the average OSU fan thinks specifically about one game: a lot.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] did I mention [Body]

Output: that I'm 6'4" and weigh 245lbs (read, a very small individual). But that was kind of my point, people are going to run-off at the mouth under a veil of anonymity. The guy shouldn't be surprised to see a remark that is not entirely based on fact - it happens!


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] geez, your sensitve [Body]

Output: did my sweeping generalization of Columbus really offend you that much? Or surprise you rather that someone would do such a thing on an internet blog? Yeah I said it, and I meant it. Maybe it's not true, but I will believe it till the day I die based on what I know. Try not to get your panties in a bunch.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] was not [Body]

Output: talking to you cfaller. wtf, jesus right back at you man.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] I don't know if you've noticed [Body]

Output: but it's sort of the topic of the discussion here, thus I am focused on it for now. The rest of my day will probably be spent enjoying our blue skies and sixty degree days. Have fun in Come-blow-us, Ohio.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] "It seems sophomoric to me" [Body]

Output: Thank you Bronxblue. The ad is not awful or offensive, just low brow, OSU style humor.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] a day [Body]

Output: you spent one day in Denver, and one guy gave you some crap about the wings, and you scale that to a major city wide marketing campaign dogging the wings? Nope, sorry dude not the same as a lifetime of experience. Not the same at all. Yeah, people here hate the wings, but I have never seen an advertiser rip the wings in order to booster customer loyalty. People here probably wouldn't fall for that shit. Face it, Columbus is a one trick pony man. I'm sorry you made the poor life choice of moving there. Perhaps you would have been better off doing some crack.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] are you openly [Body]

Output: a michigan fan? perhaps you've been lucky so far, but just give it some time. It really is unbelievable how they covet their football team. growing up there was pretty miserable, and that was during the cooper years - my last football season living in Columbus was 2000.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] to be clear [Body]

Output: it's not so much an offensive ad, as much as it is a commentary on the city's fixation with the rivalry. For instance, I don't think I've ever seen a similar ad in here in Denver, say giving a cheers to Lane Kiffin and the Raiders for being so terrible. Especially in a season when the Broncos themselves weren't that good. Basically, most large cities are identified by more than a single sport or rivalry. In Columbus, that is not the case. You know they have a newspaper counter on the Dispatch website that counts the number of days since Michigan last beat OSU. Most OSU fans could probably tell you what that number is without having to check because they really care that much and think about it pretty much non-stop. But from the MM perspective, it was definitely smart advertising.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] also [Body]

Output: what part of my rant was ill-informed? Do you have better information on Columbus? Did you grow up there as a die-hard Michigan fan? As a 6 year old kid, did did adults tell you that Michigan sucked and about how this was OSU's year to beat the snot out of "that school up north?" Ill-informed? I don't think so. Perhaps better informed was what you meant to say.


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] spelling lessons on the [Body]

Output: spelling lessons on the internet, thanks buddy!


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] born and raised [Body]

Output: in the shadow of the whore's shoe. went to high school down the road at upper arlington and my parents still live there. The worst time of the year is xmas, because that is the only time I have to go back. anymore stupid questions?


Input: [Date] 6 years 22 weeks ago [Title] This just shows [Body]

Output: what a pathetic town columbus is. Over 1 million people in the metro area, and the life of every individual in the city revolves wholly around the football team. There is no culture, no class, and certainly nothing else to look forward to. They have to pick on Michigan right now because they no longer matter in the national scope after three straight bowl losses and a schlacking at USC. As someone who grew up in that toilet bowl excuse for a city, I can honestly say that no proper thinking person would allow themselves to live their by choice. However, Buckeyes probably find it hard out here in the real world, so they stick to their disgusting little bubble that we call columbus, and I used to have to call home. They are really the worst people in the world.


Input: [Date] 6 years 23 weeks ago [Title] I just don't get it. [Body]

Output: Who was counting on Threet to lead us this year? I wasn't. I was hoping to hell that Forcier would be the starter from the get go. If September rolled around and Threet was still taking snaps, I don't know if I could stand to watch. Now I finally feel like I have something to look forward to. Yeah, it would be great to have him on the depth chart, but he was a placeholder, not the future. So, let's move forward.


Input: [Date] 6 years 23 weeks ago [Title] I can't believe [Body]

Output: how quickly everyone forgot how bad our qb's were last year. I'm actually pretty glad that there is zero chance of sitting through another year of Threet while a young qb develops. Get the guys in there and let'em go - sometimes true freshman qb's work out (see Chad Henne). All I remember from last season was watching other teams and thinking, "God, if only we had that quarterback." And it wasn't just watching elite teams, it was almost every team - KU, USF, Tulsa, Boise, anyone... If Brian is right and Threet was not a naturally confident kid, did we really want him running the team? Imagine the impact that must have had in the huddle. No wonder Odoms couldn't hang on to the ball, he probably never expected it to get there in the first place. Don't we want a guy that knows he'll deliver game after game. I think that was what our team missed last season the most.


Input: [Date] 6 years 23 weeks ago [Title] He was sort of freshman last year [Body]

Output: but really, he was a 20 year old who was a first time starter. There's a big difference between the two. The bottom line is, Threet was never going to win a game for us. Maybe we got lucky three times last year when he didn't lose the game for us, but he was never going to be a go to guy. At least Forcier and Robinson still have that opportunity. I'd rather go with an unknown then proven failure - no offense Steve.


Input: [Date] 6 years 23 weeks ago [Title] oh well [Body]

Output: While you never like to see transfers, this certainly doesn't worry me so much as it offends me. You would like to see kids staying regardless of playing time, especially someone who's already sort of a journeymen. However, I had no confidence in Threet's ability, and he showed zero improvement throughout the season. The interceptions were pretty bad, but the fact that he repeatedly dropped the ball for no reason killed me. Any time he took a snap and didn't hand off immediately, I cringed and watched the play with one eye closed. Again, it stinks that he doesn't want to stay on the practice squad, but we can't do much worse with either Forcier or Robinson - and both will likely be much better.


Input: [Date] 4 years 26 weeks ago [Body] Seriously, nobody cares about your personal vendetta against the Free Press. This thread has may be 3 relevant responses to your post, none of which actually agree with you. The rest of them basically make fun of you. You're not going to change anyone's mind about the Free Press at this point, so why don't you just let it go. Or at the very least, can you go blog about this on your own site or something? [Title]

Output: Shut. The. Fuck. Up.


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Body] I would second this notion. His coaching search coverage was an absolute joke and even that's an understatement. I really felt like I got better coverage from ESPN than his "insider info". [Title]

Output: Chris Balas is a tool


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Body] And I have a feeling that if the defense does get significantly better, you'll be one of the people here claiming that better defensive coaching had nothing to do with it and that it was all a result of an extra year in the system. It's no secret that Obi Ezeh couldn't figure out where to line up for 3 years. Even with Demens, we consistently saw him lining up too close to the DT and getting swallowed by an OL. We saw the defense constantly taking bad angles, missing lots of tackles partially due to poor technique, and not communicating coverages properly. I would argue that most of that has to do with poor coaching than youth. Over RR's tenure, we've unquestionably struggled to develop our defensive players (please don't bring up Mike Martin as a counterexample). [Title]

Output: And I have a feeling that if


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Body] Not to bring back repressed memories, but we probably would have landed Frost and Hart this class had RR stayed and both are 5 stars. [Title]

Output: Not to bring back repressed


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] We get it.. you hate the Free Press and any journalist that doesn't support RR in general. Let it go, big guy. Or at least stop posting about it. [Title]

Output: We get it.. you hate the Free
