3 weeks 2 days ago	Oh Boy!	a fat guy giving out "free" donuts. Remember, nothing is "free" when you're paying these prices for tickets. Just what the people of MI need is more donuts. They should be handing out carrots or something.
5 weeks 4 days ago	That block was awesome	but i really loved the dunk near the end, too.   I understood what it meant!
5 weeks 4 days ago	awesome!	I immediately set it as my background   Thanks!
6 weeks 18 hours ago	Sorry about your situation	but thank you for sharing and thanks to everyone else for sharing their insight into the problem. I found this post very educational and will be on the look out and I am not naive in any way whatsoever.   I've almost got pulled into 2 scams, myself. Someone mails you a postcard talking about something to sell you and then they start asking for personal information and wanting you to pay with a credit card over the phone.  I had already given a ton of information without even thinking and then as I started to read off my credit card #, I got this weird feeling in my gut. I then simply said, "On 2nd thought, I don't want your book. Never contact me again and delete my information from your server." The person on the other side didn't even try to talk me out of it. I got a simple, "OK" and then they hung up. They knew I had wised up at the last second. The thought that went through my head was, "Wait! I'm going to give my credit card # to this complete stranger that contacted me." Beware of deals where they contact you. If you go out and seek something, it's one thing, but if they contact you with a deal...watch out   The 2nd one was when this company left an empty vial on my mailbox offerring a free water testing. I knew my water wasn't that great, so thought, "hey what a wonderful oppurtunity." I filled up the vial and put it back on the side of my mailbox just like the card said to do. A couple of days later, I got a call telling me how horrible my water was and that hey wanted to send a guy out. I said, "OK" and this guy comes out and tests my water again and wants to sell me this filtration system. As soon as he asked me for my credit card information, i started having this weird feeling. People need to trust this weird feeling. It is your brain telling you that something is wrong. I picked up his card and walked over to my desktop and typed his company into Google. The entire first page was filled with entries of scams related to this company. I calmly picked up my phone, took a pic of the guy, and told him to get out. When I took the pic of him, he had this look of horror on his face. Then he packed up his stuff and left. I never contacted the authorities about it The first one with the book, i put in google, too and it came back with scam entries. Thing about a lot of scams, they have already got some other people and they've talked about it on the internet and it will show up on google. Before making some purchase like that, it's good to google it.
6 weeks 3 days ago	"The Zone" does exist	I've been in it many times. When it happens to me, it's usually when I'm shooting a rifle. Everything falls away and you're just going through the motions and hitting everything. Nothing else matters right then and there. You just cannot miss. I don't think it has anything to do with luck or momentum. Many people have discussed having this feeling.   When Trey took the shot, I didn't think it was going to go in. Even after the shot went in, I figured it was going to just be another gut shot to us Michigan fans and either Michigan would find a way to lose or Kansas would find a way to win, I didn't cheer until Kansas missed the final 3 pointer and the last seconds ticked off the clock. Then I jumped off my couch and started screaming. It was a strange feeling, from the opening tip until the very end, I thought Michigan would lose the game and was just surprised at the end. This happens to me sometimes. As Michigan inched closer, I just started to get more and more irritated that they would actually tease me into making it close instead of just comfortably losing by 10.
6 weeks 3 days ago	A lot of sports are rigged	in Order of how rigged, I can list some   1) NBE (National Basketball Entertainment, not NBA) 2) Boxing 3) WWE wrestling 4) NFL football   I can't believe this is still being questioned. The NBA has been rigged for years. Several people have come out and revealed this, but the NBA administration finds a way to discredit those individuals. I'm just surprised that they players act surprised anymore. They already know what's going on. They could even be implicit in the fix as far as I'm concerned.
8 weeks 1 day ago	Who's Horton?	I just don't see JB using those guys at the 4/5. There's no perimeter threat in those 4 players. I think he likes his 4 to be a perimeter threat. We might WANT him to play that line-up, but I don't think we'll see it that often.
8 weeks 1 day ago	I've seen Irvin compared to	Eric Gordon   I like that comparison even more.
8 weeks 2 days ago	doubletake	I thought you wrote, "if there was more brain in our diet"   HaHa
8 weeks 5 days ago	Yep, If g3 had fallen	then they might've called the flagrant 1   what did Nix say in his tweet?
10 weeks 3 days ago	This news makes me sad!	No, I am happy about the redshirt   but this spells the end of the bi-weekly thread asking if there is any news on it   curses!
10 weeks 5 days ago	I looked away for a second	and missed it, too   then i had to flip back with the dvr
11 weeks 2 days ago	Yep. Time to start telling players	to run around headbutting the other team's elbows and then falling down and start thrashing around wildly. Maybe you can even slam your head on the floor as you fall, so that you start to bleed and get blood all over. That will surely get someone thrown out.
11 weeks 3 days ago	win the next 13	and remove all doubt!!
11 weeks 3 days ago	win 4 and	Michigan is big 10 champs. Who cares if there is a tie? That's only for the big 10 tournament.
11 weeks 3 days ago	We have to concentrate on Penn State first	Someone had to say it   Why are we worried about  tiebreakers? Plenty of bball left. I doubt UW wins out and MIchigan has to win out for it to even matter.
12 weeks 13 hours ago	Yeah, but he's lost weight	I know this, because the commentators are constantly pointing it out.   Can't really tell by looking, though
12 weeks 4 days ago	I'm sure The Million Dollar Man David Brandon	loves the idea Money, money, money, money!!
13 weeks 13 hours ago	I would've preferred an interview with	Orgasm girl   the one in overalls...
13 weeks 5 days ago	dvr them both!	I don't watch any shows in real time anymore except for sports...i'd rather watch something on the dvr while the new show saves and then come back in an hour and watch this show. Why watch anything in real time?
13 weeks 5 days ago	HaHa	You said, "tape"
14 weeks 4 days ago	Wow! 7 contributors in that class	I think a team needs to get more than 7 contributors from a recruiting class. That's pretty bad.
15 weeks 7 hours ago	I'm dirianking	beer
15 weeks 7 hours ago	The good ol' boy	club is still in full effect.
15 weeks 11 hours ago	so Hoke is good at	recruiting head coaches? What?!?
15 weeks 4 days ago	I still think	it's stupid
15 weeks 6 days ago	so is any channel actually	covering this live or do we just have to sit here and hit f5 over and over?
15 weeks 6 days ago	If we don't get Green...	are these memes true?
16 weeks 6 days ago	I will be	rooting for MSU. I think it's best that they split with each other, which means it's more likely that we would want the home team to win each game. I think Ohio will win, but MSU beat Kansas and Ohio lost to Kansas, so using that information, we already know that MSU will win.   Yes, I will be watching, but it's not like I'll be jumping out of my seat or cheering. It will just be a casual interest on a saturday with little else on.
16 weeks 6 days ago	is DG going to play more than 5 minutes?	Last year, besides the horrible weather that I can't blame on Brandon or anyone that has to do with UM athletics, Denard ran one series and then sat the rest of the 1 hr scrimmage. We got to sit in horrible weather and watch Devin and Bellomy miss 5 yard passes over and over for exactly 1 hr and then were told to go home or to the lacrosse game... and I got a ticket for parking...even though there was no sign where I parked prohibiting parking... Oh yeah and the items that you received for donations to Mott were pretty lame unless you donated $500 Like was said, It would be nice if someone actually made an effort to make it fun That being said, I and my group of friends will probably still go, get there at 7am, tailgate in sleet/snow/rain and 30 degrees with 50 mph winds and then head into the stadium and be irritated at the level of actual football that we get to see.
