chicago cancels school as teachers vote not to return to work in the classrooms because of covid concerns.

when did they get to michigan?

i think theyre still a year away from spending big money on a free agent. wait until edvinsson is ready to form a solid d partnership with seider, or lead a solid second pairing. then go get your center. in the meantime see if you can sign larkin to a reasonable extension. bert? that's a bigger question. you have to see if vrana can be in the mix too. he'll be due for a pay day too.

if youre yzerman, do you spend the money for hertl next year? larkin and hertl as your top two centers might look pretty nice...

yeah, i dont know. but i think that hard core scottish presbyterianism is a link between the appalachian peoples and a lot of the frontier settler populations you see in much of the upper south. they were some of the first settlers who came here to work from england/scotland/ireland, and then left virginia to settle the frontier (and north carolina). those who stayed in virginia - and who became much of the planter class of the plantation south - tended to be anglicans. think of our image of robert e lee (genteel southern gentlemen) as opposed to the rowdy, expressly overtly severely religious scots/irish who tended to be lower class workers. if you have curiosity stream, there is a really good lecture series on the history of the south taught by an american history professor. its really interesting as to how slavery developed and the peoples who made up what became the south as opposed to the north and the midwest.

sharks just gave up 8 to the pens. can the wings catch them?

fabbri makes it 6. wings are sniping the top corner tonight.

and then larkin with a nice backcheck too.

larkin with a great shot makes it 5-2. great assist by raymond.

rowney in a bad giveaway and its 4-2

and they may not win 5 big ten games.

they were a top 10 team preseason and the co-favorite to win the big ten. this was not supposed to be a "transition" year, this was a final four contender.

1) you need to change the title of this thread. 2) how long before tater calls for howard to be fired? this has got to be the most disappointing season in michigan basketball in a long, long time.

seeing that replay of helm and glendenning gave me bad flashbacks.

i dont think they think that about gattis. if they were thinking about replacing harbaugh, they would likely turn to someone like matt campbell before gattis. i could be totally wrong and harbaugh could bolt for the pros, he'a a weird cat and could suddenly decide that's what he wants to do, but i honestly dont think he'd leave michigan in the lurch like that.

i think they will pay him his money.

i'm pretty sure michigan and harbaugh will talk (if they havent already) and they'll talk contract. he's got no agent, so there is no one to leak the the stuff to the press. money wont be an issue with michigan. if he wants to leave for the pros its because he wants to go back to the pros.

michigan's class is third in the big ten. its a solid class. it is light years behind ohio state's class. and ohio state is likely to pick up even more 5* kids in the late recruiting period. michigan will get one if it lands connerly, which is a big if right now.

both have some scots-irish roots. maybe that's what they mean. daniel boone , sam houston, strict religious presbyterian scots who migrated west from virginia once their indentured servant status ended and all the good tobacco growing lands were used up. moved into the frontier. kentucky, tennessee, north carolina, and eventually pushing on into texas. not sure how many made it as far as west texas, but there were some of them there.

i'm pretty sure harbaugh and michigan respect each other enough that if he asked for a raise they would give it to him. and if he were thinking about leaving he would let them know.

according to that wapo piece texas is the 10th largest economy in the world, i think they'd be ok. bigger than canada. california is a bigger economy than england now. holy schnikes.

why'd they change it, i can't say, people just liked it better that waaaaayyyyyy....

it's not laziness, it's imparting your current cultural hang ups on genderized language onto another culture who wants nothing to do with them.

exactly. my extended family in mexico (amd in the us) laughs at the gringos and their latinx. there go you white people trying to tell everyone what's best for them again...

red hogs would be pretty cool too.
