Rich Rodriguez, International Analyst of Mystery (beta)
Google launched a thing where it will automatically caption youtube videos based on speech recognition software. It's slightly beta. It appears the corpus it was trained on was Donald Rumsfeld poorly translated back and fourth from Japanese six to seven times. It opened a wormhole into an alternate universe where Rodriguez is an important political analyst.
Mr. Rodriguez, what is your opinion on international terrorism?
THE SHOCKING CONCLUSION AFTER THE JUMP!
Mr. Rodriguez, DEMAR DORSEY?
Mr. Rodriguez, what's the running back situation looking like in terms of guys who transferred to MAC schools like five years ago?
Mr. Rodriguez, if you had to eat a position group on your team, which would it be?
What's your take on Harvey Unga leaving BYU?
Mr. Rodriguez, was this an enormous waste of time?

Try scrolling quickly up and down the pics of RR. Its like a cool flipbook
April 18th, 2010 at 11:53 PM ^
Know what makes an even better flipbook? This.
April 18th, 2010 at 11:28 PM ^
Reporter: Mr Rodriguez, what is your opinion on terror attacks?
RR: We'll get those damn terrorists. NOW WATCH THIS SPIRAL

One of these should be the next t-shirt. Preferably flavor corners.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:08 AM ^
+1 for that. Do want.

"Michigan Flavor Corners: Really Unique and Very Low in Fat"
This is the new All Your Base Are Belong to Us.
April 18th, 2010 at 11:44 PM ^
Oh. My. God.
April 18th, 2010 at 11:52 PM ^
"back and fourth"
FYI... I'd hate to see our "Stupid Fight" score drop to something crazy, like 5.
April 18th, 2010 at 11:52 PM ^
I agree with aquaman: this post is full of shirts. Start with flavor corners (really unique and very low in fat!) and go from there.
April 19th, 2010 at 10:03 AM ^
I think the diplomats were unharmed could be a good shirt. This post is full of shirts.

They must have used Google Voice transcribe tool, they got about as many words right as I've seen in any of my voice mail transcriptions.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:12 AM ^
but it is usually good enough for me to understand what the message is about.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:03 AM ^
"really unique and very low in fat" should replace "TAKE IT LIKE A MAN" beneath the banner at the top of the page. I think that's a perfect description of MGoBlog.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:05 AM ^
This is the only entry under the "geopolitical analysis" tag.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:06 AM ^
God help us may it stay that way.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:16 AM ^
...It could be a major benefit to mankind if it didn't stay that way. Example: a UFR of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict could be the first step toward a lasting peace.
He Formerly, I saw a Formerlyanonymous on Morgan Ensberg's blog a while back. Was that you?
April 19th, 2010 at 10:28 AM ^
Most probable. I'm a follower of his site. Excellent stuff.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:09 AM ^
I would instantly buy a T-shirt about Flavor Corners.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:32 AM ^
HI-LARIOUS.
Well-played, Brian.
That is all.
Wow, this is great. I'm laughing so hard that I'm actually almost tearing up.
It's crazy how oriented around Middle Eastern conflict the press conference apparently was. I didn't even notice it when I was listening.
Brian, if I have a heart attack or pass out from lack of oxygen from all this, so help me God my ghost will come back and eat a position group.
is usually trained on UN transcripts--since those are translated into and spoken in several different languages (and archived well). There's a ton of data, too, since diplomats love to talk!
But it does leave you with a rather heavy geopolitical focus. Awesome finds :)!
I don't care what flavor our corners are, if they can't harm any diplomats, how can we expect them to beat UConn?
Should be the MGoBlog header after a loss
Brian ...
Arigato. Left out you did that translation Japanese economy text Yoda from.
April 19th, 2010 at 10:23 AM ^
Thank you very much for making me laugh really loudly in the middle of a very quiet, boring lecture.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:08 PM ^
I'm in court covering a trial and when I finished reading this, I giggled somewhat, but tried to disguise it as a cough. Now the bailiff is looking at me.
April 19th, 2010 at 12:06 PM ^
The Free Press is going to have a field day with this one.
Just stick with being a coach, Rich.
