Date	Title	Body
9 weeks 1 day ago	defensive lapses	i think one of the posters may have hit on a solution-we should try a 3-3-5.  Maybe if we had eleven guys on the floor, we could get an occasional stop.  I realize there would be a problem getting enough touches for everyone on the offensive side of the floor but it's worth a shot.
12 weeks 3 days ago	Bucket list	I had a roommate in grad school who maintained his own list-it consisted of politicians and teachers he would take out if he was diagnosed with a terminal illness. He remains healthy so no action was ever taken.
20 weeks 13 hours ago	recruiting	I long for the good old days when I wasn't able to follow recruiting and I just waited for the coaches to announce the incoming freshman class.
23 weeks 5 days ago	Green and style of play	any chance green shows interest in arkansas because they will certainly run a power game
24 weeks 3 days ago	Isaac as a deity	He stated in an interview that he was looking for a program where he could blend in just in case it didn't work out in football.  There were enough other attractions in LA so that he could be simply a student instead of a high school star who didn't make it at the next level.
29 weeks 1 day ago	stonum	and if stonum were here, dg would be the backkup qb and we wouldn't have seen bellomy tonight
29 weeks 1 day ago	devin as a wide receiver	if brady hadn't have been forced to boot stonum, devin would have remained the backup qb.  my question for the board is- has his contribution at wide receiver been sufficient to justify not having a suitable backup for a running qb?
34 weeks 1 hour ago	investing	There's an old saying in the wine business that the quickest way to  end up with a million dollars is to invest two million.
34 weeks 4 days ago	mono	most cases of mono resolve withing  two weeks and the patient will make a complete recovery-however i have seen severe complications that resulted in permanent disability. in one instance, a young man had encephalitic (brain) involvement and his neuro exam was like that of a stroke patient;  the second involved a young medical student who suffered permanent damage to her autonomic nervous system so that she could not stand without losing consciousnessness-she remains disabled to this day.
35 weeks 5 days ago	whom to root for	perfect answer-sparty is becoming intolerable-would be nice to take them down a bit-i want them to have some doubts before they play us
36 weeks 1 hour ago	sparty meltdown	it bothers me to write this but sparty is becoming a quality program, not merely a short term success.  they appear to have quality coaches ( d-bags notwithstanding) who are coaching up lesser regarded recruits.  they have redshirted virtually their entire freshmen class for two consecutive years and their players are stepping up when it's their turn.  furthermore with the ongoing implosion at psu, pennsylvania athletes are more likely to look at east lansing.  their very favorable schedule over the next few years just adds to this.
37 weeks 15 hours ago	sparty being bad?	i wouldn't be too confident about sparty right now-dominant defense, talented runner, and a passing game that can only get better.  they've already shown they can stop denard from running-can he pass well enough to beat them?
43 weeks 3 hours ago	vacating wins	first tsio and now psu-if we can get a few more schools to vacate wins, rich rod would have a big ten title
47 weeks 4 days ago	luxury box decoration	what about paired winged helmets-instantly recognizable and a hit with the key demographic
49 weeks 4 days ago	priorities and geography	those on the board who live outside of Michigan rarely encounter spartinas and can dismiss them as one would a mosquito.  those of us who are local are subject to the idiotic ravings of alum, casual fans, and certain media types-we tend to place a victory over little brother higher on our list of priorities.
1 year 2 days ago	choice of schools	sam webb recently said isaac: 1) expected davis to commit to usc and 2) wondered where he would be most comfortable if football didn't work out.  it sounded as though he preferred to live in a big city versus a football-centric college town in case he didn't live up to the hype.  this seemed a little bizarre but he has much more contact with the recruits than do any of us.
1 year 3 days ago	jake fisher	i do remember his loss as being significant.  i'm grateful denard didn't choose to sit out a year and join him at oregon-it probably would have been a logical move.
1 year 1 week ago	the honorable TP	i want to see a book that was read by Pryor himself
1 year 2 weeks ago	potential name change	nothing has been proven yet but if this story develops legs, then ohio may have to change its name to tsou (the sex offender university)
1 year 5 weeks ago	stauskas	is a top 75 player and some think he is underrated at that position.  that is not just a more talented douglass.
1 year 6 weeks ago	the decision	i am not in his shoes but i just don't understand why he would leave at this point.  he is not physicially ready and next year should be a better year for him as he wouldn't have to shoulder so much of the load.  we will have more scorers who can benefit from his pg skills.  that should make him more attractive to nba scouts.  does he believe he is better now than darius was at this point last year?
1 year 7 weeks ago	You might be an MGoblogger	if you stay up on a Friday night waiting for a "hello dee hart" post and then can't sleep when it comes through
1 year 7 weeks ago	the fight	i was given tickets to that game by a vendor and took my sons.  it was the FIRST hockey game they attended and they couldn't stop talking about it afterwards.  one of them asked if all hockey games were like that and i had to tell him no-we were just very lucky that night.
1 year 7 weeks ago	recruiting	i got nervous when i first read the post.  i saw RR and thought we were going through another coaching search.  don't do that on a Monday!
1 year 8 weeks ago	sparty	one of the great old M football teams had a dazzling offense and was referred to as "the point a minute team".  i didn't realize Izzo was going for the same productivity with his offense tonight.
1 year 12 weeks ago	dd	isn't arizona the obvious choice?
1 year 14 weeks ago	untimely deaths	i truly feel badly for her family and friends (especially her daughter) but is anyone truly surprised by what happened?  she had a long history of substance abuse.  i assume she made attempts to rehabilitate herself but was ultimately unsuccessful.  i really wonder about the people around her who enabled her to use drugs and looked the other way in order to stay on the gravy train.      on a related note, i feel worse for the family of (author) jeff zaslow who died yesterday in an automobile accident.  he was a good man who contributed in the field of literature and lived a clean life.  he leaves a wife and three daughters.
1 year 17 weeks ago	linebacker-really?	either this guy has a tremendous love for the blue or the coaches plan on using him somewhere else.  the last thing we need is another linebacker.
1 year 18 weeks ago	beat bama?	you must be joking.  i am as loyal a fan an anyone else but we run a risk of being embarassed next year.  we couldn't move the ball against va tech (or iowa or sparty) and we lose the best center in the country as well as our only deep threat.  our defense has been exposed in two consecutive games by less than stellar offenses and we lose our d line.  furthermore, saban probably hates us from his days in east lansing.  it could get ugly.
1 year 19 weeks ago	sparty	we can take pleasure in our bcs victory but the team that showed up tonight will not beat sparty next year-and we lose the heart of our d line as well as our number one playmaker.
