i don't get the Mullings hype. I mean no offense to the kid but why does he play so much? He has had like 3 good runs and that one jump pass and that's about it as far as I can remember. Donny for #1 next year.
I randomly met his grandfather at a restaurant in Tampa a couple weeks ago. He saw my M hat and immediately started gushing about his grandson (or maybe nephew I can’t remember exactly).
Is there any new info in the article? We’ve known the game is coming back for a year or so now. Looking at a 2024 release from what I remember. Between that and GTA6, I probably will do nothing but play video games for several months straight.
MAN i can't wait for the next rendition of the game to come out. Last I heard was 2024 at the earliest. Anyone know if they're going to do basketball and baseball like they had at one point as well?
Why are we using #20 on short yardage so damn much. I don’t understand. He has done nothing to prove he deserves the ball in such crucial situations. No reason he should be in the game again.
Carr’s last game at UM Stadium. Lost to Ohio State. Was freezing rain/sleet the whole time. Waited in the McDonald’s drive thru for what felt like an hour after the Jane and then came back to our hotel to hear Carr had retired.
What an idiot. What could he possibly need a concealed weapon for? Another victim of America's moronic gun culture. Shame. Now all the wins with him playing this year are questionable (at least to anyone outside our fanbase, I'm sure).
The kid is tough. I def was starting to doubt him a bit after the last few games but man did he show up today. His aggressive running and willingness to take some contact was huge huge huge today.
I still feel bad for Cade but hey, whatcha gonna do. He’s still a legend for the win last year.
Brian, I remember you predicting that Mallett would be the #1 overall pick in the draft, and hell, I was right there with you.
Even if everything I've learned since then is telling me that we'll probably be wrong, I can't help myself from from jumping right on the bandwagon with you again. Fuck it.
Proud Michigan Man moment but only slightly related to the OP:
My dad is from Argentina so more of a futbol fan than football. He never really got into watching Michigan games with my mom (former UM employee), my sister (UM grad) and myself (born in AA) but he tries to keep up with us and our passion for all things UM and UM sports.
His wife is currently working in Columbus for a couple months in the oncology depot at OSU Hospital. I assume the pay is good as I can see no other reason to take that job, but I digress. They're there. They know a bit about the rivalry.
Yesterday, he called me laughing and said "I'm driving by the big toilet!!"
He was on OSU campus driving by the football stadium lol
This is probably only funny to me but I thought I'd share anyway!
Man, let it go. The pandemic lockdowns can't hurt you anymore.
To answer your question - what does any of that matter? If we can't do NIL properly now, we won't be able to do it when the "younger non shutdown pandemic players" are ready to be recruited either.
This whole comments seems to be an excuse for you to jabber on about the pandemic and how much it affected all the things you love.
a millennial/gen z criticizing religion and being cynical? Oh my... *clutches pearls*
/s
Frankly, as a fellow millennial, I can relate to both of those characteristics. Better than believing in fairytales and thinking the world is all roses. Just IMO of course.
"We have to learn to live with it. What precisely this means is something we have to figure out."
I agree. And we are figuring it out. But we can't wait until everything is 100% "figured out" before we take what we deem to be necessary precautions to save lives. Some may turn out to have been unnecessary or short sighted. Remember people cleaning their groceries before coming into their house last year? Yeah that wasn't necessary, but still essentially harmless.
Lockdowns may have hurt some, but that's because we half assed it in this country. There is a right way to do it. All of these things require sacrifice for the greater good. Not "learning how to live with it" which really means "I don't like being inconvenienced so let's move past it". No offense to you personally, of course. Sorry you can't see your family this holiday season. Everyone is making sacrifices. Or should be, at least.
"I understand other people may think differently, but I 100% disagree that asymptomatic people who have received shots should have to prove that they are negative to go out and do things that they enjoy in life. 100% disagree."
Then you don't fully grasp the reality of the virus. You don't understand how it has spread around the world and back in less than a year. Or you don't care.
Even if you're vaccinated, you can spread the virus. Even if you're asymptomatic and vaccinated, you can spread the virus. You can spread it to others who may have a worse time than you did. You can spread it to someone who may die. You can spread it to others who will then spread it to others who will then spread it to others, etc.
If we knew ahead of time who would have a hard time with it and who wouldn't, then the virus would be much easier to deal with. But we don't. And we knew even less last year. That's why precautions like testing everyone even if you are vaccinated and feel healthy is the right approach to this pandemic. In fact we should be going farther and contact tracing everyone, but again that will never happen in America because of the 2 reasons I listed before - we're cheap and "freedom" loving people value themselves over the good of the population as a whole.
Yes but until lockdowns kill 5.36M and counting, this logic doesn't apply. The harm from the problem far outweighs the harm from taking simple precautions like temporary lockdowns in high-infection areas, wearing masks, social distancing, etc. The people who claim "The proposed solution should never bring with it harm equal to the problem being addressed." are not accepting the real harm. They are, in reality, acting selfishly and don't want to be personally and temporarily inconvenienced for the sake of others. That's ultimately what it comes down to.
We could have paid people to stay home so they didn't lose money from temporarily not going to work or running their business, but we choose not to. We choose to keep the economy going above all else. And then people wonder why we're still dealing with this so intensely a year later. They wonder why the things they used to take for granted are now questionable. It's fucking insanity. Literally.
but to directly answer you question, athletes are tested more because they have to travel a lot as part of their jobs. This not only exposes them to more people and therefore more chances to get the virus, but also offers more chances for them to spread the virus. The more you move around, the more you should be tested so you have less of a chance to spread the virus yourself if you do catch it somewhere. It's really very simple stuff. How anyone can still be so confused by simple concepts like stopping the spread of a virus is unreal to me at this point. I mean literally what else would it be? Do you think it's like a conspiracy against sports or something? What would your logic tell you is the reason?
Everyone should be tested exactly like athletes are. But we don't because A) we're a cheap country that values money over human life and B) testing everyone daily to control the spread of a very contagious disease would stupidly be considered a violation of "freedoms" by half the country. That's exactly why. Same reason we don't lock down when there are spikes in some areas. Same reason you are allowed to fill a stadium just as you said. Because money won out over science and reason and compassion. It's literally the same people complaining about exactly what you're complaining about that were the cause of what you're complaining about.
Yes. This was the hire I’ve wanted for so long and couldn’t be happier about the results. We’ll see if he can continue this success but I hope for nothing but the best. Maybe he can even take over as HC one day far down the road. Always loved Hart. So glad he’s back.
Need to play Brooks more for now. Either that or Jones needs to learn to stop taking the entire D into his hands with those awful attempts at drawing a charge he pulled last night. The loss wasn't all on him, of course. But man he really screwed us late in the game.
Sweet jinx, Brian. Edit: man what a loss. Not blaming Brian of course I was just breaking his balls. I know he’s going through shit I was just really excited to read the preview as I don’t get much time to watch much football other than Michigan games. His previews really help and I appreciate them a lot. Hope all is well, Brian!
"Facebook the app, along with Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger, are here to stay; the company’s corporate structure also won’t change. But on Dec. 1, its shares will start trading under a new ticker symbol, “MVRS.”"
Seems more like a restructuring since they're just moving the actual Facebook under the new parents company than a rebranding since the actual app of Facebook is not changing, but I could be wrong.

You just summarized my next Madden franchise.
Thank you indeed. Hope he has a long and successful career. And I hope we promote Moore to HC.

Best one I’ve seen so far
Michigan Beat Everybody
Me too. I feel like I should be bouncing off the walls with excitement but I’m still in shock I think.

Nice guy. I’m happy for Jaylen and his family.
Worked great for me. Peacock app on a Sony tv using wifi. No issues at all. Picture was crystal clear.
the “coverage will resume shortly” music was the only really annoying thing I noticed.
I…
Holy shit. how awful.
I was just reminiscing about him and when Brian said he’d be the #1 pick after he committed to coach Carr. Man that’s so sad.

Black Sumner was entertaining but the writing and cinematography was not as good as Last Of Us.
They unsuccessfully tried to tell too many stories in Black Summer. Imo of course.
Found this on some Nebraska board. Good news for sure!

Absolutely one of, if not the biggest, play of the game.
thank you Mike! Legendary performance today.
I fucking love it.
What a game. Bang me up!
Hear hear!
Man that really sucks.
No thanks. Your expectations are weird. That is all.
Good lord people.
No plz

Not even our WRs or CBs can run like Shoelace. Put some respect on that name.
Good. Now you don't need a subscription to watch. Buy a digital antenna for $25-50 and now you can watch every game in HD. I love it.

only if you ask really nicely
Unreal!! Go Blue baby !!
To be fair, he should have gotten a TD against MSU. Not quite the razzle dazzle of a punt return TD but still a score for the stat line.
not that I think he would be a lock for the award if he got that TD, I’m just sayin.
Yes. This was the hire I’ve wanted for so long and couldn’t be happier about the results. We’ll see if he can continue this success but I hope for nothing but the best. Maybe he can even take over as HC one day far down the road. Always loved Hart. So glad he’s back.
