Sam Adams makes a good maple pecan porter (not sure of availability). If you ever make it out to Denver, Denver Beer Co makes a kick-ass Graham Cracker Porter (medaled at GABF). Mountain Sun Brewery does a killer Java Porter as well.

Hah!

I graduated med school from there last year. Finals were brutal, but the MD at the end is definitely worth it.

I always thought that if we had a sports team, the fighting helices would be the best mascot ever

It's ok guys, we're just trying to prevent having denard from keeping the dubious record of most picks in one game this season

If you're Kansas, why are you not using timeouts when Texas is at the 1? You could have had 30 seconds to march back down the field after they scored.

It was one of the most gnarly injuries I have seen in a long time

If you have access to Breckenridge beers, I highly recommend the small batch 471 double IPA. I just went to their tasting room last week and it was delicious off the tap ($3 for a pint too).

The only thing that I can think of is that Shanahan knows he messed up the Weber thing and is trying to get come continuity in punishments. Hagelin got 3 for elbow to the head, Shaw gets 3 for elbow to the head. IMO, Shaw's elbowing was a lot more severe, and it was on a goalie (See Lucic vs. Miller earlier this year). I'm not too surprised he got 3 games, even though it still sucks.

Again, I'll reserve judgement until I see what Asham gets. He's been thugging it up all series and THAT is the worst play of the playoffs so far.

I'd be in full support of this for women's soccer. Football, not so much.

This is hardly a calling out. It sounds a lot more like a Dave Brandon pimp slap.

I just tried the DFH India brown ale tonight, so delicious I had to get another.

We're the same way in terms of eating healthy. The diet pretty much limits carbs as much as possible and get most of your calories with protein. Regardless, doing any kind of exercise for an hour 6 days a week will see results, even if you have a 6 pack and a cheeseburger with fries every night.

I love how the first 4 comments are on the assistant coach, rather than McGary. Congrats to him...hopefully the beginning of multiple invites to national teams.

On another note, If my name was Mike Jones, I would definitely go by Michael, or at least Mikey. The whole Mike Jones thing is so overused.

Zombie Dust is delicious. Got 2 cases from 3 Floyds brewery last weekend and I plan on heavily depleting my stash this weekend.

I saw this on hot clicks on SI today, didn't have enough points to post it. That being said, glad it showed up!

As funny as this sounds, I think (hope) there is a serious question buried here. I remember reading on TomVH's chat a day or 2 ago that about 300 recruits are placed on the watch list, so about 1/2 of them actually make the top 150.

I heard posbang and couldn't resist the good feelings!

3 Floyds Zombie Dust. The stuff is the nectar of the gods.

The offseason?

Almost as cool as a doublepost bro

Enjoying a few Boulder Beer Mojo IPAs with some Indian food right now...trying to unify my drink/food combo.

I like the size of this kid. Elite speed is great, but judging by this year, all you need to do is position your body well and be able to get up higher than the DB.

That's my pick.

I saw the word "pounded" and said "well played, sir"

Then I read the second sentence, and really? I think the acronym is DOUCHE

The fact that we are playing them again is horror enough. I cringe every time I hear or see replays of that game (which was the first game of my senior year). I am dreading media coverage in the months leading up the the game rehashing everything that happened.

Texas A&M's actions are kind of like going on Jerry Springer to tell someone you're cheating. In A&M's case, everyone in the world knew that something was fishy weeks ago. Now they're just admitting it publically to the Big 12. HUGE SHOCKER!

Double post...

Normally I'd be ashamed of myself, but I feel strongly enough about this that I'm proud to reiterate it.

We're talking about shots of Captain Morgan, right??

I think your wife will be happiest (and you therefore as well) if you stay downtown. You get unlimited shopping. It is really easy to take the L up to Evanston. The red line drops you off a few blocks from Ryan Field and runs really frequently. You would be able to budget shop a lot easier for hotels as well. Also, you wouldn't need to worry about driving to and from the game.

If you are looking to stay up in the suburbs (I grew up 20 mins away from Evanston), Evanston has botiquey shops, but doesn't have too much hardcore shopping. The best place around is Old Orchard Mall, which is like a 15 min drive away. There is a lot of office space around there and I've seen a few hotels around (prices probably wouldn't be . Try searching in Skokie, IL.

Great find! It's amazing how things have progressed in the past 15 years.

I like the analysis of Steve Hutchinson: Will probably play DT

The piddle...enjoyed by old ladies, exited puppies, and jhackney.

As a Michigan grad (out of state) I can safely say that I got an excellent education and don't regret my decision for a second. Fortunately my parents were able to pick up my tab, but I had plenty of friends pay their way. You seem like a motivated kid and are definitely competitive for U of M. I don't know what the price difference is for U of M vs. MSU at half-price, but it shouldn't be unbearable. Do you know what field you want to go into?? That makes a difference. If you're thinking business or engineering (well anything that you will get a job right out of college) going to a school with a big name, big companies that interview nationally is a huge benefit. Every single one of my friends who went through engineering or business is very successful right now, including my fiance. I decided to go the medical school route, and I think it doesn't matter as much which undergrad you went to if you are applying to law or med school (or any sort of grad school). They look for overall achievement while at school rather than which school you went to. I graduated from U of M with slightly above a 3.5, and I'm sure I could have done better if I went to State. However, I took a lot of pride in the quality of the institution, so I don't regret my decision.

Ultimately, you need to worry about where you feel most comfortable. If you keep the same motivation that you have right now, you shouldn't have too much trouble paying off your loans eventually. Also, I would look at privately offered scholarships. Even 1,000 here and there can add up and you seem like you have a pretty good story, which never hurts for personal statements.

This is better than porn

I did the same thing my sophomore year. It was always a fun challenge to try to get the parents out of the room, tell the girl that we were having a party. Give her my number and to call me once she got to the line and I'd get her and whatever friends in. Worked like a charm multiple times. That and trying to get tips. Nothing like getting a wad of cash from a grateful dad who didn't want to lift anything. Provided booze money for all of welcome week.

While none of this surprises me, I think its really interesting that the Ohio BMV only looked at the legality of the player car deals. OSU halted their investigation after the report, but it seems to me that they never truly looked for any NCAA violations. Hopefully the NCAA picks up on this and conducts their own investigation, especially after reading the records of the OSU compliance office's thoughts on car deals in years past. The case keeps building for Lack of Institutional Control.

4 posts...this is what i get for trying to post in a place with no phone service

I agree...I think that besides the very rare NBA playoff upset (the Warriors over Mavs was one of the best series I have ever seen in any sport), you can pretty much figure out who is going to make it to the East/West finals each year before playoffs start. There are way too many opportunities in basketball for things to even out over the course of a game. NHL, on the other hand, has more teams on equal footing. The change in the game momentum caused by a penalty or goal has a lot more impact than say a dunk or 3 pointer. This causes hockey players to play at 100% all the time, finishing every check, etc. Plus, you get the rare 4 OT games that are absolutely ridiculous, and cause me to stay up until 3am keeping my neighbors up by screaming and yelling at the TV all night.

And I'm pretty sure there aren't too many comedic situations in the NHL playoffs, you might be looking for the word parity.

Just for the word crypticity. I can't wait to use it during a business meeting today.

My medical school lecturer thought we were cheering for her when half the class started yelling at the same time. GO USA!

I'm trying to watch the game online and ESPN's livefeed isn't working. Does anyone know of another site that is streaming this game for free?

I clicked on this thread hoping it wasn't going to be some pedophilic article on toddlers, but this is arguably worse.

Shame the kid's going to get lung cancer before he can drive the car officials are trying to give the parents; they should just lock the dad up for child abuse.

Our speaker was Bob Woodruff. He was great; both poignant and motivating. Although I was initially disappointed we wouldn't be in the Big House for graduation, the Diag was set up unbelievably and it feels pretty special to be the only class to graduate there.

I'm pretty sure I saw this guy in Ann Arbor during hash bash; he was starting a drum circle.

Let's just hope that Notre Dame doesn't land him, because Golden Showers just sounds filthy to play against.

This is about all I want to know about your personal life...that's some pretty freaky shit.

And he's the next Jared Allen...SACK!

Don't you mean "that's faaaabulous!"?

I don't think the headliners are as good this year, although stevie wonder should be sick. The bands during the day and thursday night should be unbelievable though. I'm really excited for the Xx.

My darkhorse to win it all is Spartacus Bernstein...

The Jewish accountant who led an uprising of Greek slaves against the Roman republic.

You just booked an express ticket to Neg-Bomb Town with that comment...

ANY championship is one to get excited about, especially one that we had to fight tooth and nail for a tourney birth with, extending our streak of over 2 decades

On the creeper scale of 1-10

The two owners of UGP are former Michigan grads. They were in my fraternity and have helped many of my friends get jobs while in school of after graduation. There have been many times where I've needed shirts made on short notice and UGP has always made it work out.

Support UGP!

It usually lasts 3-4 days, definitely shouldn't be more than a week. Anything you can keep down in terms of fluids is better, but it's hard with the nausea/vomiting. Dehydration will only make you feel worse, so do you best on hydration. Since it's a virus, any type of antibiotic won't work at all...so you're SOL that route.

I don't know if this will make you feel better or not, but norovirus is one of the shorter duration viral causes of gastroenteritis...some last up to 2 weeks.

Of the first person wearing scarlet and gray that I see walking the steets.

And maybe I'll mix it with some Arrow or 5 O'Clock vodka, just so I can get drunk too.

Maybe they were supposed to take the picture from behind...

+1 just for the buffalo chicken addition...I can't tell you how many times I've dropped $10 on late night specials just to add the buffalo chicken.

I've been to Pizza Bob's many times...their pizza is decent (they often burn the hell out of the bottom) but their shakes are the best on campus. My favorites are raspberry-vanilla or hot fudge.

The first two sentences of the product description say it all.

"Glutton, demon of destruction, symbol of slaughter, mightiest of wilderness villains… The wolverine comes marked with a reputation based on myth and fancy. Yet this enigmatic animal is more complex than the legends that surround it."

It's great...to be...a Michigan Wolverine.

are a douche...

congrats on the job OP, getting a job is a great thing to celebrate, regardless what it is.

This was one of the best shows of the 90's. One of the funniest halloween costumes I have ever seen is someone dressed up as Kurt Fogg, the host. To some people he may look like a denim shirt, khaki short wearing creep with a utility belt that held his microphone. To me he was a god among men of game show hosts.

I actually googled this information to see if it was true (before I watched the video). Wikipedia didn't have anything on it, and if I've learned anything in life, it's that Wikipedia's word is the spoken truth. Thanks for raising my blood pressure on a Tuesday morning for nothing.

here's a free online English course. Do MGoBoard a favor and study a little.

Am I the only one who wouldn't want to be within 20 miles of a fart girl grabbing cake?

it was one of the best birthdays i've ever had...mine ended the same way

If you're referring to the Pike football run, I know for a fact it still goes on. I saw them running through state street this year.
