Hi Huma, interested in your…

Hi Huma, interested in your tickets. How do I contact you?

From what I heard, season…

From what I heard, season ticket holders got notified today whether they got tickets but not where they are located. So you have three groups that matter:

1. The ones that got tickets and were planning on going (no effect on secondary market)

2. The ones that got tickets and were planning on selling (no effect on secondary market - until the location in revealed which I believe is Thursday, after which supply should increase)

3. The ones that didn't get tickets and were planning on going (increases the demand on the secondary market)

So we had an increase in demand with no increase in supply today which might explain your observed price action. Hopefully tomorrow more tickets will flow in on the supply side.

Now coach is right on top of Day and it looks like he's sitting on Day's head.

I'll also add that Cornelius Johnson catch where JJ threw it against the grain and CJ had to completely reverse direction jump to catch it and then land on his elbows (ouch shoulders) to make sure it didn't hit the ground is a candidate for this section. That kept that last long drive alive.

In the original he's blowing a whistle while doing that "dance" right in the players faces. Those things are ear-piercingly loud especially at that distance. That had to secretly annoy the players..

Correct. According to the article, the various coaches got credit for the win and are each 1-0.

I'll take the lumps. But I'll add that there is some relevance in that a media organization is at least trying to get a bit of a positive spin out there from Michigan's perspective

Looks like I'm going to get my sports reading fix from CBS going forward.

Agree. Also, if Michigan does have any ammunition against our rivals, as has been hinted at over the last couple weeks, it seems like it would make more sense to wait until after the season when all this drama subsides. Escalation is the natural instinct but playing the long game is much more effective in my opinion.

Have no idea if Michigan actually has anything they're going to pursue (we did hear they hired an investigative firm, no?) but I really hope they do.

Smart. As the saying goes, don't get in a debate with people like this. They'll bring you down (way down, in this case) to their level then beat you with experience.

These are the guys that made the conjecture that Michigan was responsible for Hendon Hookers knee injury via convoluted sign stealing logic. Have no interest anymore in what they have to say.

This sounds like all the stuff we said with the #1 Don Brown defense and an offense that just did what it had to do to get wins, all the while OSU was steamrolling teams. We all knew what happened in The Game during those years.

Winning 15 of 16 is so spectacular that I never imagined I would ever witness something like that in my lifetime; but winning 15 of 17 really sucks.

I'll take it one step further. Why didn't they just get the eagles help to destroy the ring? The eagles had to make the round trip to Mount Doom anyway. They could've come up with this plan at the fellowship gathering well before Sauron had his forces ready. The eagles could drop Frodo off at Mount Doom, let him toss the ring in the lava, pick him back up and BOOM! Sauron is toast, Middle Earth is saved, movie done in an hour and a half.

The point spread is…

The point spread is currently -19.   Do find that level of Disrespekt to the #7 team in the country quite funny.

 

While this may be funny, assuming they win by 19 and we have an Indiana-like performance against Maryland (boring win), I am wondering what the spread will be against us? Hopefully under double digits?

19-15 Michigan

19-15 Michigan

 

Remember before there was Field Goal Harbaugh there was Field Goal Franklin. Mich makes one score a TD to not take over the original FG king.

This was the scariest play…

This was the scariest play of the game IMO. Washington had scored on their previous drive to make it 24-10. They held us to three and out on our next drive. Then they march down the field, including just converting a 1st and 20 to get past midfield. This guy is *wide* open due to blown coverage. However, the ball was overthrown. From my perspective in the stadium, I thought the overthrow was due to the ref being in the way. I think this video shows the same thing.

 

If that completion is made, it results in a pretty big gain and lots of momentum for UW to make it a one score game. Not saying we wouldn't have pulled it off, but my spidey-sense was going off after this series of events and to some degree, we got a little lucky here.

I've always gone by the convention:

gold medal - 5 pts

silver medal - 3 pts

bronze medal - 1 pt

That I learned from the incomparable Summer Games video game from Epyx that I played on the Commodore 64 back in the day. From this point of view the US is way ahead.

 

In my opinion, Livers…

In my opinion, Livers biggest contribution was his clutch shooting - 3pt and otherwise. I don't mean clutch, end-of-game winning shots but the ending-the-other-team's-run type of shooting. Basketball is a game of runs and you could almost always count on Livers to step up when we needed a bucket.

While the guys replacing him are certainly capable, I'm not sure they are at Livers level.

Using percentages is a…

Using percentages is a generalization of feeling strongly one way or the other.

80/20 - feels strongly for staying but definitely non-zero chance of leaving

50/50 - doesn't feel strongly one way or the other

20/80 - feels strongly for leaving but definitely non-zero chance of staying

 

And you can extrapolate everything else in between.
