Hyattsville is about 2 miles south of College Park on Route 1. It's got a nice artsy downtown strip.
Streetcar Brewing is good, along with Pizzeria Paradiso. There is also Franklins (another brewhouse) nearby.
Always a fan of Busboys and Poets, which is a good upscale diner in DC area (and the Hyattsville Busboys and Poets is maybe .5 mile away from Streetcar.
Vigilante coffee is really good for a caffeine buzz (and they roast coffee literally right there).
Finally up around the Whole Foods (between Hyattsville and the Maryland Campus on route 1), there's the Le Fantome Food Hall with some upscale but good places. Hot Lola's is the best with it's Sichuan Nashville Hot Chicken.

And lo, the Hawkeye's opponents rejoic'd for it was good.
a several meter thick wall of concrete from a satellite. I think you could track a GIS tag on a football through a pile of football players. Not too hard.
Yes Ohio State has a great recruting class, but let's remember Harbaugh's Stanford teams were not exactly top 10, or even top 20 classes, he still beat USC.
In fact the "What's your deal?" game featured a USC team with the top recruitment classes for 2006 for 2007 (9 5 stars from Scout, 6 5 stars from Rivals), and top 5 classes for 2008 and 2009.
Its true Harbaugh did recruit Andrew Luck, but still Richard Sherman was a 3-star, Toby Gerhart was a great High School Player (but still the 27th best RB prospect in the country coming out of high school). Harbaugh has been able to win with less, and we still have a pretty good class for this year.
Deep breath, it won't be easy but we can still beat Ohio State.
this year (make sense, you were busy watching OSU), as the flag on Harbaugh could have been thrown in several other games this year...but it wasn't...then again who would have thought you could apply basketball rules during a football game.
We'll see what happens on Tuesday, but I'm guessing Ohio State is still #2 (hard to rank them lower when they "won" a game against the #3 team)
However, this puts the CFP in a weird spot with the Big Ten championship winner. So the play-offs will be: Alabama, Ohio State, Big Ten Championship Winner, Probably Clemson.
The NY6 will then be:
Western Michigan, Big Ten Championship loser (Rose Bowl), PAC12 Champ, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State (pay-back for not putting the Big 12 champ in the CFP), PAC12 loser (the CFP needs to compensate for passing-up on PAC12 for the last two years), Florida (ESPN sort of likes SEC teams), and probably VA-Tech (compensating for one-bid ACC team in CFP).
Michigan woud not go back to the Citrus/Wild Wings Bowl (since we won that last year...guessing this bid goes to Nebraska, since they travel well), so that leaves us with the Outback bowl...
Just a theory, but you have Ohio and winner of Wisconsin/Penn State in the CFP (the CFP has backed themselves in a corner on this)...
The loser of the Big Ten Championship definitely goes to the Rose Bowl, and with two Big Ten teams in the play-offs, and the CFP trying to compensate the PAC-12 or Big 12 for not considering their champ, plus Western Michigan getting a NY6 invite...I think Michigan may be stuck with the Outback Bowl (since we played in Citrus, Buff Wing Bowl last year).
This is so incredibly subjective and probably wrong very often (this is a fun PhD paper, if someone has the time).
Seriously, its 2016, you could pretty easily place several GPS tags in the ball, geotag a football field extensively, fly a UAV/drone above the stadium, and after each play, it could shoot down a laser to the precise spot where the ball should be placed at the end of each play.
In fact you could be fancy, and have another UAV shooting a laser to the precise first down marker, and do away with the non-sense of the placing the ball here or there, or wherever after each play.
I never understand this about professional sports (and college too to some extent) at present, where so much in resources is dedicated to precision (designing plays and strategy, assuring players are in peak physical condition (nutrition, work-outs, sleep, etc), assuring eqipment is as state of the art as the rules allow, using advanced metrics for deciding line-ups and match-ups, etc), then why do we still subject sports to the inefficiency and probably subjectivity of human officials. Okay, I am getting to sci-fi
Anyone want to start a kickstarter on GPS/UAVs, and doing away with refs spotting the ball?

Yeah, Chesson and Darboh may be better, but Hemingway bailed out Denard so many times.
Junior would be ideal for Wilton O'Korn, Shane Peters, or Magnuson or anyone else with limited experience, to go out and just chuck the ball up blindly.
but celebrating a political movement that fought to support the right that people of one race were the property of people of another race...c'mon its hard to get any more racist.
If southerners are too sensitive and cannot recognize and admit that the confederacy and the antebellum south were racist, then don't celebrate Confederacy Heritage Month.
I also don't buy that argument, its okay, because its their heritage bs. Its 2016 not 1861.
a lot of people are stuck at work when the 1pm will be played. Not that this will stop an unethical doink like myself from pilfering the company wifi to watch the game in my cube...kind of like March Madness
Speight coming in to beat Minnesota, looked way better than Russell Belomy coming in versus Nebraska , or the Shane Morris train wreck against Minnesota and KSU.
Our sample size for Speight is too small, but the fact that Speight actually became comfortable after a couple of plays, is way better than what we some from backup QBs under Hoke/Borges/Nussmeier.
Depends on the opponent...plus I give Harbaugh a lot more credit to develop a QB over 3-4 weeks than Borges.
I don't see Shane Morris vs. Kansas State again. If Rudock is hurt, expect an okay QB day from Speight (or Malzone/Gentry?), a few pics, 55% completion rating on short and medium passes.
Michigan's coaching staff isnt perfect, but I do think they try to set-up offensively in schemes that can work for their personnel.
we just have to make sure all kids wear helmets when they play soccer, or leave their houses. The world is full of things that can fall on your head...its a rough place.
Given that Fitz Toussaint, Rawls, and Michael Cox have had some moments in the NFL, makes you wonder what would have happened if they actually were coached while they were at Michigan.
I always thought Michael Shaw had talent that was never fully realized.
From the Carr/Rodriguez transition year, throw in Brandon Minor, if he played under Harbaugh (yeah he would have gotten hurt), but he is similar to Dev Smith, but with better speed.
If I were Al Golden, you might want to start bringing your lunch to work, to save a few $$$. Mark Helfrich may also want to look into buying Dr. Thunder or Dr. Bold, this week.
with the USCs' coaching changes, and Florida suspending their QB for PEDs.
I feel like we are about to hear something else surprising like Delany just wrapped up the Big Ten's future TV rights, and we can look forward to games on BTN and HGTV.
SCTSA&MU, the Jackrabitt-Armadillo-Aggie-Horns are having a good season in the Big Southwest Sun USA American Conference, North-Central Eastern Division.

Let's get the Stanford crew back together again.

New Mexico State before...
Dunno, we could cross them off our list. I hear its nice in Las Cruces in early September.
several more times on Rutgers...very disappointing
but no one outside of Ohio State and Michigan fans would be happy about this scenario.
Its sort of like that LSU vs Bama BCS Championship game (the game was super boring), and no one wanted to watch a re-match...
the game winning field goal in the 2012 Sugar Bowl, always made me feel a little uneasy.
Then again, I think the 2012 team used up Michigan's luck quotient for most of this decade, and we are still in a deficit.
We'll see what happens on Tuesday, but I'm guessing Ohio State is still #2 (hard to rank them lower when they "won" a game against the #3 team)

And yes, Pat's and Geno's are for the tourist.

at Appomattox, maybe the other 49 states could celebrate end of the Confederacy month
that would look weird on the sidelines...
was way better...
