37 weeks 5 days ago	Team may have paid already	Who says the team has not been punished?  When I played in high school we had a player skip classes one afternoon and have a few drinks.  He then decided to show up to practice after school.  Across the street from our fields was a set of hills.  We always ran those hills before practice but on that particular night the whole team ran those hills about 3 times as much as normal.  It did not take a genius to figure out why we were doing the extra running.  When the real practice started I think that everytime that player got hit there was a little extra effort put into it.  I am sure that the player didn't miss any game time that week.  I am also positive that nobody else showed up to practice after drinking again.  The coaches were quite effective in gettign their message across.  The player that showed up half drunk paid a little more then everybody else did because most of the team got to take their frustrations out on him at some point.  (The coaches did not put a target on him at all, he did it himself.)  The team did not suffer during the game by having one of the starters on the bench.  In fact, in the long term the extra running probably helped us some.  I think that Hoke knows what he is doing and I also think that the whole team will likely be aware of what might happen if they step out of line.
38 weeks 6 days ago	Maybe not fact	It might not be a fact that RichRod got a raw deal but your arrogant comment about how many people felt he was not the right guy for the job right from the start does support that argument some. If he had been given a chance by those that didn't think he was the right guy then things might have been different. For the record, I wanted him to, and thought that he would succeed. I also agree that it was time for him to go.
1 year 5 weeks ago	Shaw Direct	I have Shaw Direct satelite and they carry the BTN in both SD & HD.  For that reason alone I would reccomend that you switch.
1 year 11 weeks ago	I am sure they are...	Tremendous
1 year 25 weeks ago	No way	We have had to listen to people calling for Gardner to replace Denard at QB. Just imagine having to listen to people calling for Hagerup running our offense from the super shotgun formation. I can see the meltdown now.
1 year 25 weeks ago	Beautiful forecast	If the current forecast holds true then it will be a great day to be in short sleeves. These reporters are just trying to make up a story instead of reporting on what is there.
1 year 27 weeks ago	Reaction	I think that kicking 30 players off of the team actually gives support to the argument that they are a clean program. Looking down at OSU we see the exact opposite reaction and we argued all summer long that made them dirtier. Therefore 1951 Army kicking players off the team makes the program look cleaner.
1 year 27 weeks ago	Hayden Epstein	Seemed like he was kicking for us the entire time I was in high school and college.
1 year 33 weeks ago	I Second That	I was going to ask for something like this as well.  I think it would look a little weird after we lose a game if there is no way to quickly distinguish between a win and a loss.  With that being said, maybe Heiko does not have a plan to distinguish because he expects we will be undefeated. Maybe???
1 year 34 weeks ago	Kalis	Aren't there some posters over at Bucknuts that think Kalis is going to come back into the fold for them?  Just sayin'...
1 year 35 weeks ago	Awesome Work	Please let us know when each piece is out there to see.
1 year 35 weeks ago	My Illusions Have Been Shattered	And her I though T everyone that read and commented on this board was intelligent. Thanks for ruining that for me OP.
1 year 36 weeks ago	No Way That Score Changes	With the new rule that they brought in this year I am pretty sure that if they did rule it a TD that we would have been flagged for excessive celebration and the points would have come off the board.  Still get our dramatic 35-31 score.

1 year 49 weeks ago	Fair Market Value	"Experience, training, professional development" are what I would call an education.  By your description the only thing more than an education they are receiving is free medical coverage.  To me that is a small price to pay, beyond their education, to have these kids represent the universities and pu their bodies in physical danger.
1 year 49 weeks ago	Pandora's Box	I think that if TP sues the NCAA and he goes witht the arguement that the NCAA and the member institutions are making millions upon millions of dollars off of his(and others) talent then it could have a huge impact on the future of college sports.  The OP used teh word slavery when talking about suing the NCAA.  A sympathetic judge may see an arguement here and the end result may turn things upside down.  If a lawsuit comes to be may take us places that we never thought possible.  BTW - I am of the opinion that, as a general rule, the student athletes across the country are compensated nicely withn education.  That is what 99% of the student athletes in the NCAA are after.  With that being said, I think that there might be some merit to some of the "opay for play" talk that we have heard coming out of the B1G offices lately.  To me, the problems in Columbus, SEC country, USC, etc stem more from the fact that these schools have been breaking the rules instead of campaigning to have the rules changed.
2 years 2 weeks ago	It runs daily	If I remember correctly he said that the script would now run daily. For some reason it had not run in quite some time. I think he meant that there would not be another massive purge of points in the future.
2 years 3 weeks ago	posted from iPhone	The Internet is a wonderful thing. You can find all sorts of info if you look hard enough.
2 years 3 weeks ago	Yes.	For the most part anyway.

2 years 6 weeks ago	$5.09	Actually, if I walked into my local bank right now and gave them a $5CAD bill they would give me a $5USD bill as well as a nice shiny Canadian dime to go with it. This is a really big part of the reason that the company I was working for a couple of years ago closed up shop and moved to PA.

2 years 10 weeks ago	MSU AD	Not to defend Izzo or anything but it was the MSU AD who sent out that tweet.  I guess that just makes the whole administration at MSU asshas.
2 years 12 weeks ago	Michigan Man	I think Chris Whitten qualifies as a true Michigan Man.
2 years 14 weeks ago	More then Blue	There was an article in the Freep this past week about a signing event that was held for all players from the DPS league.  In the article it talked about 10 Cass Tech players heading off to college on scholarships.  Here is the link to the article: http://www.freep.com/article/20110210/HSS/102100514/1054/SPORTS06/Cass-Tech-players-going-Michigan-WMU-Wayne-State For those that don't want to click the link they have players going to Michigan, Illinois, Western Michigan, Toledo, Wayne State and Saginaw Valley State.  While it looks like the cream at Cass Tech ends up at Michigan I think that the coaches there are willing to send their kids into a situation that best suits them.  As a parent I would want my son to have  a coach in high school that does this.
