1 week 17 hours ago	Wait.	You're saying Adoree Jackson grew up behind a paywall?
1 week 5 days ago	Not sure of the context,	but one of My favorites is: "He's as nervous as long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs."
1 week 6 days ago	11/11/1995	Colder than a witches teat in a brass bra.
3 weeks 18 hours ago	Important, for sure.	As historic as Jason Collins' statements in today's SI are, it will be even more historic when he actually plays in an NBA game next season.  As a free agent, there's no certainty he'll be signed for next year.
4 weeks 6 days ago	NFL Career	Often overlooked is Summerall's ten year NFL career, primarily as a place kicker, for the Lions, (Chicago) Cardinals and NY Giants. He played in the 1958 NFL Championship Game between the Baltimore Colts and Giants which has been called "The Greatest Game Ever Played", won by the Colts 23-16 in OT.
5 weeks 4 days ago	Hey!	Clowns have feelings too, you know. /s
5 weeks 6 days ago	Hmmmm,	perhaps Hartman has spotted a trend in the score in Hoke/Kill head-to-head matches: 2011 : 58 - 0 2012 : 35 - 13 2013 : 12 - 26 (extrapolating each)
6 weeks 17 hours ago	Good Luck Charm	I have a hat with a Wolverine head which I wore to both Final Four games in '89 and the 1998 Rose Bowl. The hat was worn to the Georgia Dome last Saturday night and *will* be worn again tonight! Go Blue!
6 weeks 2 days ago	Section 123	Row 8
6 weeks 3 days ago	I was in Seattle in '89	And after the game, many of the fans made their way over to the team's hotel where we partied in a ballroom. It was quite a night; we didn't see pictures of the party on South U until the next morning.
6 weeks 3 days ago	Apology: Bad Pun	Just trying to pass the time on my flight from PDX to ATL. 4:30 wake up call has diminished my sense of humor.
6 weeks 3 days ago	Just Wonderin'	Is Tree Rollins a past winner of this award?
6 weeks 3 days ago	Well,	making his bitterness known works to his advantage now, allows him to rehash the injustices heaped upon him in the past. I imagine this is a frequent discussion topic in the locker room, as well as the press room.
6 weeks 5 days ago	Well,	some people know they're going to hear Izzo's statement in various forms until next season from MSU-leaning coworkers and acquaintances. Note: As a general rule I tend to avoid MSU and friend in the same sentence.
10 weeks 1 day ago	77-74	Michigan over IU.
10 weeks 4 days ago	NUBS	I remember handing in my deck at the input window, then watching the monitor report job status, before walking around the twisting internal corridor to the output window to pickup the printed output (along with the input deck).  This was about the time the IBM mainframe was swapped out for an Amdahl.
10 weeks 4 days ago	"Fishbowl"	was in use to refer to the glassed-in intersection of Angell/Mason/Haven halls back in the mid-seventies, before the computing center moved from NUBS to North Campus.
10 weeks 4 days ago	But, but,	that would be unsportsmanlike. Gotta go, I think I hear those kids back on my lawn ...
13 weeks 2 days ago	Manti,	is that you, sharing from your personal experience here on MGoBlog?
14 weeks 3 days ago	Oregon's 2012 Marijuana Initiative	wanted to legalize for citizens 18 & over, while legal age for alcohol remains 21 & over.
14 weeks 5 days ago	Ricky Green / Phil Hubbard	need to be a single entry; I can't really separate one's achievements from the other's. Cazzie Russell / Bill Buntin are the similarily linked in my mind; though I wasn't on campus then, and only have secondhand info.
15 weeks 2 days ago	Moellers?	Gary and Andy? They're rattled?
16 weeks 6 days ago	Band Day?	Do you recall if it was Band Day, when high school bands from across the state bussed to Ann Arbor to watch the game and play at halftime? Band Day was often the season attendance leader in the 60s, IIRC.
17 weeks 3 days ago	Personally,	after reviewing video of Swarbrick's press conference, I'm leaning toward "Lyin' Irish".
18 weeks 6 days ago	23 is my lucky number	starting in that position in the poll is fine by me.
22 weeks 5 days ago	BTN	carried 4 Michigan games this season, IIRC: (UMass, @Purdue, MSU, @Minny). Availability of those games (and games involving 11 other existing Big Ten teams) is a larger factor than just Rutgers Football. Penn State has a huge fanbase in the areas described in the article.
22 weeks 5 days ago	Or,	since he's targeting the B1G division name complainers (generally traditionalists), should he close with "Get On My Lawn?"
24 weeks 4 days ago	Another factor: when you play them.	'Bama played A&M at home the week after a hard fought road win against LSU. Given 4-5 weeks to prepare and focus, my money is on the Crimson Tide, whoever they meet in their bowl.
24 weeks 4 days ago	Hmmmm,	Is it too late to start a "Fire Paul Pasqualoni" website? The movement probably would have had more support before UConn beat Pitt and won at Louisville the last two weeks.
24 weeks 4 days ago	Or,	since Rutgers is on the banks of the Raritan, a sip from the Huron would be indicated. Which could lead to an interesting hobby: collecting a water sample from the closest body of water to each of the Big Ten member institutions.
