  1. Clearly, not getting Harbor was bad. Michigan wanted him and couldn't finish that off. They may get another chance though in the portal process. There is a lot of rating inflation of players from less scrupulous organizations but I think generational talent defines the haves from the have nots in CFB. Michigan has been able to transform nobodies into decent pro prospects but we definitely need to have the next 5* QB and at least one 5*on D down the road. In the B1G championship our 5* on D was the key figure despite being a true freshman. In the OSU game our (build-a/transfer) 5* C was the key man in opening up the way for the 5* RB twice. So, back to the drawing board Michigan. Please get Harbaugh a new contract. Please get more NIL. Please open up your hearts to the transfers from these lesser programs who courted these kids with false promises. Maybe get innovative and actually set up in Ann Arbor some sort of Dharma Initiative to court these kids via advanced theoretical metaphysics.
  2. Likewise, I will fight these idiots. So, right back at you 1776. I would rename myself 1945, specifically May 8, 1945. Side note: I think declaring someone is locked and loaded used to mean they were under the influence of some substance.
  3. This will be a significant help
  4. Not sure if this falls under the Warde Manuel/Juwan/Harbaugh did-something-wrong bin that the Freep likes to frame things but...still https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/2023/01/30/university-of-michigan-websites-russian-cyberattack/69854720007/
  5. This is from today Really bad people? The kind who cheat on their spouses?
  6. all in favor of this. I think Vladdie's miscalculation has resulted in the below quote from Samuel Johnson coming true.
  7. Assuming a democratic election they are not interested in going back to that. Who knows if oligarchy is buying the elections on behalf of the Russian dictator?
  8. The EU actually was in the work during that 1991 workup to Visegrad. They are the appropriate umbrella organization for this sub-division of states.
  9. This was an excellent outcome. Side note: A former professor of mine was behind a lot of shenanigans in the Reagan administration. He was Constantine Menges. Anywho...Dr. Menges (whose nickname was "Constant Menace" from the Ollie North contingent) was behind at one point an attempt in the early 1990s to form a bloc of states pre-NATO called the Visegrad Bloc which would comprise the central/easter European former Warsaw Pact states to provide a bulwark against Russia. The idea was sort of loopy at the time because together their GDP was pretty abysmal. That has changed some with two-three decades of democracy and investment. Read about some of it here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visegrád_Group https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constantine_Menges
  10. I think people care a lot about MSU football. They just lack the ability to articulate that because of their poor educations.
  11. Not sure what to make of Daniel Yergen but his history of the Oil industry "The Prize" was pretty good
  12. in case my sub reference doesn't land
  13. You are not of the body.
  14. best comment from that discussion
  15. My favorite website for M content besides this one of course, has just put out a hit on Tony Garcia in a metaphorical sense. His content is banned from MGOBLOG.
  16. He destroyed his credibility with that hand wave at the typical Sparty violence. I'm sure the MSU Police Brutality Program is fire. (note: ROMAD1's son is at MSU as we speak attending the Chem program and likes it very much).
  17. Boy the Sparty hit job by the Freep today was pretty aggressive. So, Harbaugh was the only person who watched that video or saw the events take place live?
  18. No, so...ok. Well it happens.
  19. re: failed children
  20. My two USSS coworkers when I was working with them on a certain project would tell me that Eric Trump and Don Jr. were Don Sr's least favorite people in the World.
  21. This has kicked off a mini-firestorm I'm actually ok with the guy saying all this. "empty a clip" is basic dumbness about how firearms work and will result in howls of derision from the RW gun culture. Don't give Fox News a talking point. Do give China something to worry about.
  22. Lots of rumblings on twitter about Mario coming back. I think wishful thinking. I note that he did know when a ball was going to carry the wall. It may be he had the game on a delay or something?
  23. I can see some cracks in the wall.
