the whole thing makes me angry when i think about it. blame the victim. that's all this is. and the lions front office sits there and takes it. says nothing. jerry jones got to mouth off, sheila should mouth off right back. "rod wood is handling it." yeah, he handled it so effectively the league issued a flawed video and lectured the lions even the video itself showed the lions doing nothing wrong. stick up for your franchise, sheila! all this "behind the scenes" garbage gets you nothing but walked over. not only do you own a franchise, your company is a major advertiser for the league. use some leverage for once! wtf is jerry jones other than an oil leech? throw your weight around and tell the league to kiss your ass.

we definitely could use some good news on the farm front after a disappointing beginning in grand rapids. good to see things are picking up! really excited about danielson, asp, and augustine. excited to see who we can trade cossa for. 😉

thats damning with most faint of praise. i dont even see stewart as a 6th man. on THIS team? sure. on a good team? no. too small and unathletic for a 5. not enough offense for a modern 4. cant play with any other big man on this team. he's a bench rotation player at best. the contract is fine, i suppose. but as the focus of your offseason? the one thing you HAD to do was lock up isaiah stewart? quite frankly, signing bey to a similar deal (or letting him go to restricted FA and get a similar number) would have been better for this team. and i'm not even a bey fan. this team needs shooting and wings, not an undersized offensive nobody like stewart. i know he's tough, yadda yadda yadda. means little in the long run.

michigan's oline recruiting has been pretty solid for years too. they have a strong base of recruits with which to build upon. maybe the one thing they dont have is a premium left tackle. other than that, they've got depth in spades.

i suspect that if guys like edwards and kris jenkins go pro, they'll both move up draft boards quickly after the combine.

those ratings mean nothing until the combine, especially for a guy like edwards. if he isnt going to run fast at the combine, then he should use michigan's nil and stay in school. it might behoove him to transfer if he isnt declaring. go to a place that's going to pass the ball more. but if he comes out and runs a 4.3 or a 4.4, then he's going before corum. you saw that speed and big play ability last year. so did nfl scouts.

should have beaten alabama. michigan did.

good thing we had to lock up isaiah stewart on that contract. top priority of the offseason.

the only thing they could do would have been to have decker and skipper change places on the line. which would also have tipped dallas off, of course. the ref screwed up and cost them. as simple as that. all these bull**** announcements from the league and from media about the lions "getting too cute" is besides the point and a distraction from the real issue, which is Allen's failure to take the time to do his job correctly.

how late? he's a mid round pick, just like corum. in fact, he might get drafted before corum. he'll blow up the combine. he had an off season but he has the skills (speed and hands) that make him a viable nfl running back. corum is too small and too slow for the pro game. like mike hart.

fantastique! if weaver is in charge we are 1000% taking saar.

penix and washington is a much different animal than Bama. washington can exploit michigan's "flaw" on defense much moreso than the tide could. penix is going to be a huge issue. i expect michigan to throw a lot of trick coverages at him like they did with osu and harrison. oduze is a burner. its a tough matchup. if michigan wins, they win up front. that said, i was impressed with how michigan's dline played and very unimpressed with how texas went away from trying to outphysical washington.

wheeler with an article on ASP today. he's giving off erik karlsson vibes. "Only one other under-19 defenseman has a single point in the SHL this season. The only other 18-year-old defenseman who is a regular on an SHL club is Sharks prospect Axel Landen, who is pointless on the season. Meanwhile, Sandin Pellikka’s nine goals are two back of the SHL record for an under-19 defenseman — and he’ll have 21 games left in his season to score them when he returns from the world juniors. Victor Hedman’s points record for an under-19 defenseman of 21 is within reach, too." he's a returning player to the u-19s, and is an assistant captain. the only 18 year old to do that. and he's leading the team in ice time. he could be a major find. between him and augustine, the wings have two young players excelling at the juniors.

penix and the receivers were really impressive against texas. the rest of the team? not so much. i didnt understand texas' offense. just run the ball. it was like they tried to get really cute and impressive when all they really needed to do was smash them. and they got really unlucky with turnovers. if michigan plays sound, they should be ok. if they get tcu jj, they will lose. penix will be a load. and their receivers against michigan's non-will johnson corners will be a mismatch.

atlanta is the team to watch.

everyone should be shocked whenever michigan wins a bowl game. especially a rose bowl. remember this day, it may not happen again for another 25 years. 🙂

this is what happens when cade has on off night. i mean, it happens all the time when he has an ON night, but if he's off theyre going to get absolutely slaughtered. and why is wiseman playing so much? once again leading the team with a -24 when he's on the court.

lol. what a **** team.

what a game.

i suspect they'll win more games simply by luck of the draw. nights where the shots fall for them and not the other team, and the other team simply taking "the night off" as nba teams are wont to do in a long, grinding season. now that the raptors gave raptored and lost the unloseable game, the pressure is off the pistons' opponents not to be "that team". with that, this team still sucks and still cant shoot, so they'll continue to be bad but just not historically bad. they might even win a couple in a row. its hard to lose that many nba games in a row if youre not trying to. that's why this run was so miraculously bad, they were trying to win! this was not the process sixers. which is why the front office should all be dismissed...

nope. played them in a rich rod year to open the season in jerry world and were embarassed. played them in a bowl game in shea patterson land and were good for the first half and then alabama decided to play and whupped michigan in the second half.

3-79 is still on the table.

lol, even when you say something nice about michigan you have to throw a shot in there too. 🙂

the pistons are completely uninteresting now. before there was a story, now there is just ambivalence and failure.

andrew luck was pretty darn good.
