In other news I just retooled that Rack City Bitch song to fit a softball team. I know that's probably way too advanced for your musical knowledge (HALOL), but thought I'd mention it, if only to brag about the sincere intellectual accomplishment of the night.

i swear dude your posting had just turned into one huge mess and your becoming a complete nusciance on the boards here. I mean you dont have to reply to EVERY POST, especailly with one word quips. I mean i know its hard because your like 12 (?) or something  but just make posts that CONTRIBUTE to the board here, or at least make people laugh or are on topic. Posting stupid stuff like "HURRR DURR DURR WHO IS BO HURR DURR" does nothing. Just trying to give you a word of advice before your ways get you banhammered into oblivion.

This kid is why we need to be able to neg. He would have never been able to create a post back in the good old days. Oh those were the days, now we label his post trolling which in reality does nothing, then he goes on to create dumb ass threads because he still gets a point for is two word comments. Bring them back Brian

According to a previous post, he is 15 turning 16 this year, with a .937 probability, or he is already 16 with a .063 probability.  (Treating birthdays as uniform random variables, of course)

In regards to having  people post, upon posting a comment, you could have to answer a trivia questions regarding umich football.  For Ex: Who was MI's quarterback coach in 2005?  For the people that know, great!  For the people that don't, Google!

For the people who don't know, nor can use the internet for anything besides porn, and I'm NOT singling out any 15 or 16 year olds in particular, they will have to wait for a question they know.  But, as soon as you get 2 trivia questions wrong, you are locked out for 2 weeks before you can try again, problem solved.

I was working for Bob Chmiel.  He was a neighbor of my sister who lived in Ann Arbor and he knew I was an assistant football coach here in Northern Ohio, a Michigan graduate and somebody he knew first hand.  So he asked me if I would help out on an "unofficial" (meaning unpaid) basis for Michigan.  They gave me a list of players they wanted to follow and I went to their games and mostly got to know their friends as direct contact with the kid was not allowed.  But I could tell the coaches if the kids friends were stoners, studiers, gangsters, religious or whatever as the feeling was kids usually hung around other kids like themselves.  Basically my job was to do a personality "profile" on the recruit and try and learn as much behind the scenes info I could get other 16-17 year old kids to share once they found out I was there at the game to watch their buddy.  I did it from 92-94, when Moeller got sacked Chmeil left and went to Notre Dame and so did my connection to the coaching stafff.

I've always liked Loeffler.  When I camped at Michigan back in h.s. I worked with him directly and  was amazed at how great of a coach he was.  Congrats to him.

This is really interesting.  At Auburn, he'll be under a lot of scrutiny (especially given Alabama's success) and he'll be facing a lot of tough defenses in that conference.  If he can succeed there, that would bode well for an eventual return here.

Great news for Loeffler, and great news for Michigan.  When your program is modeled on tradition and keeping things in the family, you need an active coaching tree to keep it successful.  Obviously the well dried up for awhile.  Here's hoping Loeffler is the first of many to take a turn visiting other schools before returning home to keep us going strong.
