Sponsor note. Richard Hoeg will business you up. He will file documents and draw up contracts and get you right with the government as you attempt to launch your very good business idea.

He will also not talk about Michigan football or talk about Michigan football, as is your preference. If you'd like a small business lawyer who's in the same boat you are, he's the guy to call.

I now own an ascot? In addition to our weekly discussions about the continuing Robert Anderson fallout on WTKA, I made an appearance on Stateside to talk about how it's impacting various parts of the program from the fanbase to former players and where the focus should be.

For the record. Summarizing some things said on these podcasts:

The release of the Wilmer Hale report seems to have induced these many and various press conferences, which seem designed to increase public pressure instead of saying anything that is not already in a university-commissioned document that may not be literally comprehensive but is comprehensive enough to identify a pattern of behavior and damn the culture in the football program around that time. "How much money should survivors get in compensation?" is an unanswerable question and to me it's not an interesting one. The lawyers will posture and there will be a number.

I'd rather talk about the structures in place then and the ones in place now that have brought some much-delayed comeuppance to four different serial sexual harassers.
