Quite a few people have died of carbon monoxide poisoning because, due to having a button to start/stop the car rather than a key, they accidentally left their car on in their garage.
What kind of a fucking moron would trade a Final Four for a potential upgrade at quarterback. That would be like trading in $1000 for a 10% chance to win $1000.
I don't think its ever "OK" when the R2 is that low. That means that the variance in the dependent variable (starts) cannot be explained by independent variable (recruiting rankings). i.e. This is no relationship. 0.05 is totally abysmal and can be interpreted as "there is no meaningful relationship"
Another problem with this analysis is that because you can't go lower than 0 starts, the distribution of the data is skewed and not normal. It would probably be best to remove anyone who never started a single game from the analyis because there a re a lot of people in there that never saw the field for personal reasons and it would make the data nicer.
How was Charlie Strong like Hoke at all? Hoke had a losing record in 9 seasons as a head coach in the MAC and MWC after being a position coach. Strong was a winner at Louiville after being a NC DC at Florida. They were nothing alike.
No one is criticising their right to criticize Kaepernick. They're criticizing their view that any form of protest that doesn't involve 100% obediance to American symbols and rituals is "petulant", "misguided", "selfish", and/or "disgraces the military."
As a response to people protesting injustice in America by abstaining from particiption in the national anthem, some people respond "WHY DO YOU HATE THE TROOPS." Thats a form of fascism.
If you don't believe in American values, then why did you sign up for the military?
I wonder if your grandfather said the same thing about those blacks who were also bullying the poor old white people in the south who just wanted to have their segregation.
The NBA cannot affect political change in China. It can, however, do it here. I think the NBA is giving the American people what they want. Its really not OK to discriminate against LGBT anymore. People are saying this is purely a publicity stunt and has nothing to do with morals. Why can't it be both?
Bathrooms have always been based on gender and gender norms, not biological sex. Three were mens and womens bathrooms way before we even discovered chromosomes.
Have you ever stopped for a second to think that maybe the NBA feels that it can actually make a difference in America by moving the game from Charlotte, but a similar stance toward China wouldn accomplish absolutely nothing politically?
Besides, if you ban games in countries that have committed human rights violations, you would have to ban all games in America too.
I think the the leather armed male jacket is recognizable mainly because male sports are more celebrated. You don't fix that problem by giving women the same jacket - you fix it by convincing people that women's sports are just as important and fun to watch as men's sports. When that happens, the women's jacket will become just as valuable, even though it is different.
Probably not. I think they should have the choice. I just don't see this as a gender rights issue, if the $ value is the same. Equality doesn't mean sameness.
Should I be considered a bigot if I think its OK that men and women get different clothing, as long as the $ value of the jacket is comparable? Because the old jackets are actually pretty nice looking and definitly more feminine.
EMU isn't in the same ball park as UM for education. UM has a top education program, EMU is s mediocre teacher factory. There really is nothing EMU can compete with UM in.
I'm not talking about this world, I'm talking about the whole of reality. I'm Christian too (not the Kirk Cameron type though), but if you think that Kirk Cameron movie is anything other than the worst kind of didatic crap, you don't live in reality! I can't imagine how anyone could sit through that whole sticking piece of dogshit and not either fall asleep or puke.
Some of you people are such little bitches. I feel like I go on this site way too much, and I never notice it going down that often and, when it does, I attend to one of the million other things in my life. If you donated money, its because this site has awesome content, not so that Brian will hire a team of engineers to work around the clock making sure you dont miss a few hours of posting on the board. Also, its a donation - Brian owes you nothing. Be happy that he had the balls to quit his 9-5 and start a blog providing the best Michigan sports content in the universe.
Get a life.
One thing I never understood is how you can succeed at such a demanding job AND binge drink during the weekdays. I could never do my fairly normal job if I always had a hangover.

It doesn't really matter if statistical significance is established if the correlation is that weak.
For example, if the average number of career starts for 4* recruits is 30 and for 5* recruits it is 31, who cares, even if p<0.0001.
They mentioned Virginia Tech, but they didn't mention the Virginia Tech research, which pre-dates all the other research mentioned in the article.

Surprised they didn't mention the Virginia Tech research, which has been using this methodology for at least 15 years.

Why do people call Wisconsin "Wisky?" Its not a thing. Similar to how Virginia Tech hates being called "Vah Tech"

My wife and I met Dhani at a bar in New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl at the end of Hoke's first season. He flirted a lot with my wife. It was awesome.
When is Snyder going to be charged?
Exactly. The NBA has absolutely no power over the Chinese government, yet it does carry some political power over here.
Maybe its both to increase their number of fans AND its a moral stand. Why can't it be both?

Sorry man, but you're wrong.
You basically calling him intolerant because he won't tolerate your intolerance.

You are quite clearly not a scientist.

Who said anything about separate? I said "different", not "separate".
Probably not. I think they should have the choice. I just don't see this as a gender rights issue, if the $ value is the same. Equality doesn't mean sameness.

I'm not against cops. I'm against cops who execute people without a trial.
Not at all. Its a simple calculation. 1 human life > 1000s of car seats.
This is a great story but it would take 1000s of good deeds like this to even come close to erasing the stain of a police sidewalk execution.
Its a scandal that it has been allowed to gone on as long as it has.
