6 weeks 5 days ago	This is a very, very weak	This is a very, very weak argument. Schools like Michigan (and its fans) that don't like oversigning would love to have unlimited scholarships because it would eliminate the oversigning quandary. Schools like Indiana State (and its fan) that can't afford unlimited scholarships love oversigning because it brings in transfers. It also allows them to take more flyers so they can find diamonds in the rough. One of the biggest oversigners a few years ago was Troy, which was a successful team at the time, by the way. The person he's arguing against doesn't exist.

18 weeks 3 days ago	He wrote a lot, sure, but I	He wrote a lot, sure, but I don't think he did enough to correlate any of these teams with Michigan. He didn't even say which of those teams we're most like, because if we're like none of them then there's no conclusion to be made. I actually think we're closer to that Ohio State team than he'd like to admit. Also, I'm confused why it's a foregone conclusion to him that Texas should have been more successful without Kevin Effing Durant. So...Texas should have benched him that year? The Thunder should get rid of him now? Was I supposed to agree with that? Because I didn't. And he didn't even look at why teams like Utah and Oklahoma were so much worse the next year (here's a clue: they didn't have future NBA players on their roster). He's usually a good writer, but the Michigan part flat out didn't make sense to me.
18 weeks 3 days ago	His survey of teams that lost	His survey of teams that lost the previous year's POY is the definition of turning correlation into causation. I bet that most of those teams won precisely as many games as they were supposed to, as tends to happen (except of course Kentucky).

To be honest, it's going to backfire and refs will be attacked not by coaches but by fans and TV [commentators]. They will become the bad guys." Simple solution:
20 weeks 2 days ago	Interesting question. I'm	Interesting question. I'm guessing the other team gets an identical advantage push when they receive the kickoff in the 2nd half. In that case it wouldn't matter. But, this is assuming your odds of scoring on the first possession of the game and the first possession of the second half are the same. Perhaps they're different.
20 weeks 2 days ago	I think I can answer	I think I can answer this. Simply possessing the ball provides an immediate, slight advantage at kickoff.
20 weeks 5 days ago	http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why	http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_are_basketball_players_called_cagers   In the initial era of basketball as we know it, an out of bounds pass was awarded to the first person to possess it. Well, it didn't take long for this rule to cause problems. Players were fighting for balls off of the court...fans were getting involved...and it was more like today's pro wrestling than it was basketball. Well, like hockey, it was decided that it would be an improvement for fans if the court was "caged" with a fence, and the patrons were protected. The players eneded up playing in a "cage," and thus the tag "Cagers" became a common term of endearment.

23 weeks 4 days ago	Miller	Well, what are Miller's prospects as a blocking TE? And Funchess as a WR? And while we're at it, lets position switch Will Campbell one last time from NFL guard to college guard, for old time's sake.

37 weeks 2 days ago	Agreed. It's newspaper writer	Agreed. It's newspaper writer logic, but I'm fighting fire with fire. And hey, to further play devils' advocate, maybe Russell looks better without some of those stars on his team. All I know is the Knicks are very happy with the Championship trajectory that began in 1966.
