2 weeks 4 days ago Five weeks later

My joke was almost funny.  Still cost me all of my mgopoints.

So, after five weeks, mgopoints?  Or no mgopoints?  

2 weeks 4 days ago Oops. Wrong reply

Deleted

2 weeks 4 days ago Mike Tirico

Television is overrated.

4 weeks 3 days ago Funny.  I still remember the

Funny.  I still remember the house party in AA when we were both students and Everitt wanted to fight me.  I have no idea why.  He kept pointing at me, threatening me and getting in my way when I went to the keg.  Maybe he thought I was someone else.  

When he was away to get a beer or for a bathroom break, I asked his two friends what his problem was. They didn't really have an answer even after I told them I'd never met Everitt before.

Since he had about five inches and at least 50 pounds on me, I kept my distance and managed to avoid being broken in half.  

Great player, but a strange guy.

5 weeks 21 hours ago It worked out ok for Charles

It worked out ok for Charles Rogers, didn't it?  

 

Didn't it?

7 weeks 6 days ago It's not the "Chick-fil-A

It's not the "Chick-fil-A Homophobia Bowl"?

I Love their food and their service. I hate their social agenda.

7 weeks 6 days ago I think you mean Dennis

I think you mean Dennis Northfeet.

8 weeks 1 day ago No.  Once the runner takes

No.  Once the runner takes second base and the play is over, he cannot later return to first base.  

Segura stole second.  Play over.  Segura cannot return to first.

8 weeks 2 days ago Correct. Once he took second

Correct. Once he took second base and play was stopped, Segura could not return to first. 

8 weeks 2 days ago Right.  Which is why Segura

Right.  Which is why Segura should have been out.  There were two blown calls: first, when Segura was tagged the second time (after stepping off second base); second, when Segura stood on first after Braun was called out.  You cannot run the bases backwards in MLB.  

8 weeks 2 days ago ND is on that list as well.

ND is on that list as well.  Don't they still keep their football rights including the contract with NBC?  I cannot imagine them sharing that money with other schools.

EDIT: Answering my own question -- of course, they do.  Per Brian's post on the main page.

8 weeks 2 days ago They were both pretty weak,

They were both pretty weak, but, as you said above, it's Bismark, North Dakota.  These are probably their first jobs out of college and they're weekend anchors.  The available talent pool to anchor weekends in Bismark is not probably not filled with network quality talent.

8 weeks 6 days ago No. They will be standing on

No. They will be standing on the shoulders of A's. Think about it.

Congratulations! You're going to love it at Michigan.

Save your soul. Listen to muppets all day instead.

Banana suits.

That is all.

15 weeks 6 days ago Glad to see Drew doing well.

Glad to see Drew doing well.

The rough thing about his departure from Michigan was the timing. He announced he was going pro after National Signing Day, leaving Michigan in a bad spot. Carr didn't recruit a QB the year before Drew or the year he committed. That was the deal he made with Henson to get him to Michigan. Of course, that meant there weren't many QB options on the roster when Henson suddenly bolted.

I still think Steinbrenner offered Henson the big payday to stick it to Michigan.

16 weeks 6 hours ago Brian Griese says

Brian Griese says "hello".

Seriously, I don't know about Wangler, but Michigan's had serious preferred walk-on talent in the past. As a preferred, isn't he likely to get a scholarship eventually?

16 weeks 6 hours ago But don't the kids love 'em?

But don't the kids love 'em?

16 weeks 2 days ago Yes.  The Lions desparately

Yes.  The Lions desperately need an improved return game.  I'd love to see Stevie B. running back kicks for them.

16 weeks 2 days ago It's sad that WDIV didn't get

It's sad that WDIV didn't get reaction from the university before doing the story or didn't say that the university hadn't responded to requests (if that was the case).

That said, the university should not be classifying state residents who served in the military as non-residents for tuition purposes. It happened to me when I was a student and I thought it was a fluke. In the wake of this most recent incident, I'm learning that it's also happened to many others. If its not university policy, the university needs to stop doing it.

16 weeks 5 days ago He's not the first.  Have you

He's not the first.  Have you read the responses in this thread?  

16 weeks 6 days ago The university did the same

The university did the same thing to me 20 years ago.  I served six years in the Army and enrolled at UM after returning from Germany.  When I got my first tuition bill I was shocked to learn that UM had accepted me as an out-of-state student.  Luckily, I was able to get a state representative to contact the university president.  My situation was fixed quickly and the president sent me a letter of apology. 

I knew a handful of other veterans on the Ann Arbor campus at the time who did not have this problem.  But if accepting veterans who served overseas as out-of-state students is UM policy now, it needs to change.  Interestingly, the report from WDIV did not have a response from the university.

17 weeks 1 day ago Thanks.  I was expecting

Thanks.  I was expecting something a little more complicated. 

17 weeks 1 day ago How do I vote?  Do I click

How do I vote?  Do I click the button next to Denard's name, then click "like"?  The page doesn't explain it.  I'm sure this is a simple question for those who regularly use Facebook, but I'm a Twitter man.

Yes.  Please edit the title to reflect that his first name is "Victor".

So you're saying he "Blind Sided" the other coaches on National Signing Day?

19 weeks 8 hours ago Actually, he meant to say "We

Actually, he meant to say "We can definitely writhe with him".  Personally, I'd rather not, but I guess the decision to writhe or not to writhe is best left to individuals.
