  1. The stupid thing is that we let them do this. Sport is a public good as much as a business.
  2. Mafia Manfred is going to kill all their kids
  3. That was an amazing riff on the multi-verse in his citizen's filibuster.
  4. I was there.
  5. Yeah, the very definition of people who are heavily engaged in civics, communities.
  6. Its a pretty good hour of standup. He's a riot.
  7. "There is no Kirby"
  8. "working class" would imply that applicants are Dickensian poor -- not kids of dual-income household professionals who likely have spent an occasional extra nickle to get their kid some testing help. Or, are they "bloated plutocrats?"
  9. I appreciate the point about the myth of middle class merit
  10. I had the same guy who gave me the "Jim's waiting to sign the contract" inside dope asked me if I had an opinion about them loosening the transfer rules from 60 credit max.
  11. They probably won't do allowing all of your Bumfluff Red State Teecherz and Preecherz Colledge credits to transfer for a guy who wants a degree in Doctorin'
  12. I'm interested in this. My hope is that Michigan becomes smarter about this. My own experience was that I was the youngest of 5 kids of the CPA, who had to go off the Air Force and transfer in with credits from Schoolcraft College, the Community College of the Air Force and University of Maryland's European campus. Ask me about my credits from CCAF and how little they figured in the Michigan transfer -- nor really should they have (I have credits in "Vehicle Operations" and "Joint Fires Planning")
  13. Legacy QBs descended from previous coaches will be our OBP going forward.
  14. Maybe he just had people posting links and everyone would dissuade the hapless linker.
  15. He would show up on the other site --nay the current degenerate gambler site -- and try to get people to look at his links from time to time, or is that a different guy?
  16. Last night felt really weird. i wonder if the movement to the portal by guys like Filiaga and early departures like Dax Hill are because of the inklings that NIL -- use of the block M-- is going to make or break this Harbaugh era.
  17. Might have been the plan for Vladdie all along.
  18. Billy Sims 1980 was also my first Lions memory.
  19. Its clear that we need to identify some authorities on misinformation. It needs to be done. This billionair's funhouse we have now is not working for Democracy.
  20. Gen X came of age in the time of that game. I remember the time I spent in the sweat lodge and journeyed to understand the space coyote's words. Or, what actually happened was I drank a lot of tequila at some dive bar in Pontiac and got on the shuttle bus and watched my team do something amazing. Herman Moore's veritable coming out game. Barry Sanders with the mystery run into 8-9 Dallas defenders and then voosh! out the other side. Multiple defensive plays (fumble recoveries, pick sixes!).
  21. I could see an argument for the football program being offended at all the money going into weather satellites.
