It is an eminently unreasonable position to advocate for more restrictions on a constitutionally protected right when the government doesn't enforce the laws it has.
The laws were in place to prevent this senseless act of evil. Rather, in violation of the equal protection clause, an evil person was allowed to take the lives of three people.
I, and millions of others, will not be swayed by "common sense" pleas while common sense is seemingly lost to antiquity.
He used violence while representing the University and the State of Michigan. There's no cooling off period, there's no discussions to be had. He should be fired immediately and without hesitation or remorse.
Given the amount of moderation from staff and users on this board, I agree. I totally get banning trolls and negging them. A troll is a troll. But this board has been guilty of unnecessary censorship in the name of... whatever you chose to call it, but it has caused me to visit this site less and less frequently.
This is the best opinion I've read so far on this board.
I don't understand how the helicopter parent opinion of "how much their senior has LAAAAWST" gains any sort of traction in public discourse. At the same time healthcare workers are literally being emotionally traumatized by a pandemic and chances of economic depression are very real.
Time to toughen these kids up a little bit, maybe? A look around the teenagers in my sphere of influence shows a callous disregard for human life or the betterment of society because staying in the house is just too damn hard.
In 5 years Harbaugh has turned the ship from the RR/Hoke years into the same consistency Bo gave us. OSU wasn't like this in the '80s. Penn State wasn't here until the '90s and were shit until lately, save their first couple seasons.
We had the plays to beat Bama today. Same as OSU and PSU. We didn't have the talent.
You know, I'm Gen X, but recently those that decide these things have reclassified me as a Xennial. I agree with a lot of what you said. I'm not an alumnus of Michigan. I'm but a simple Ironworker who has proudly built many structures for, what I believe, is the greatest University in the world because of its prestige, honor, and integrity.
The University of Michigan makes a difference in our State, Nation, and the world. I enjoy the diverse Division 1 athletic program too.
Because of the respect I have for this institution, which I have bled for literally if not actually attended, I would never really want it to do the shady stuff other schools do. But as part of the same fan base you are, one of two things need to happen.
We either need to embrace our just outside the top, Wisconsin like status or demand the University of Michigan to embrace change like a leader should.
Michigan can institute academic areas of study for sports. Maybe even with slightly more lenient academic requirements. The power of the University and its wealthy athletic department can lead FBS into a new era of legitimately paid players. Use its resources to lobby for this privlege for student athletes and level the playing field with the bagmen down south. Aim the money cannon at the recruits in a legal, honorable way with integrity.
I plan on donating heavily to this University on my demise regardless of football. But if the football program wants my money, they need to be the leaders and the best as college football heads toward the inevitability of pay to play.
I would prefer to respekt the last decade and hope for a well earned victory from one of my favorite gritty but flawed Michigan Wolverines football teams.
Ya know, I worked for a steel fabricator in Lansing. One morning I went to work and started building massive columns for the FRIB particle collider tunnel.
Under the base plates of one of those columns, "GO BLUE" is written in "maize" paint marker.
I also worked on the Spartan Stadium addition. The window fascia visible from the river side of the stadium also has the same writing inside the tubes.
It's my fervent belief that Chris Pratt simply plays one of his Parks and Rec alter egos in each film he's in. I really wouldn't consider him a strong actor.
If there's one thing I've learned about humans it's that culture determines how you're perceived more than skin color over the last 20 years or so.
Urban culture, the "wanna be rapper with a mix tape," is doing no favors for young men and women regardless of their race these days. Same with the confederate flag in Michigan hillbillies.
I'm curious about these lifestyle choices your speaking of. Could you elaborate on that and why the LGBT community specifically should be judged on their lifestyle choices and not feel discriminated against?
Don't. You're selfish for even thinking about it. Until you guarantee your child will be civil for the duration of whatever event you take them too, keep it away.
30 years ago called. It would like it's argument back. The "Soviet" threat has been supplanted with an enemy that can't go bankrupt, undergo regime change, or be invaded. The "War on Terror" is here to feed the military-industrial compelx for decades to come.
It's been explained in ths thread multiple times: Peppers is a LB now. He doesn't have a "side." LB's don't get a ton of picks.
The Heisman should be for the best football player in College Football. Peppers is the best player in College Football. If you'd like to refute that he's the best player in College Football, do that. Your comments suggest you might not even be watching the team this year.

The level of narcissism required for this request is absolutely mind blowing.
My thoughts and prayers for the victims.

What kind of bigot are you? Is it just socioeconomic or does it get deeper?
Make no mistake, regardless of intent, this is vile and hateful language.
This drivel is race baiting propaganda of the worst kind.
I have no respect for MGoBlog.
He's an employee of the largest public university in the State of Michigan.

Notwithstanding a serious threat of death or violence, no, you don't need to know what was said. It's wholly irrelevant.
Why are you making excuses for a grown man, paid on our dime, slapping a man on television because he can't control his temper?
If this…
I tend to agree.
If this was Harbaugh, what would the MGoCollective have to say?

Ferentz is absolutely aroused by our special teams.

Lakeyale13's comment is the creepiest thing I've read on the internet today.

Just my two cents.
Ohio State with one loss and the B1G championship will get into the playoffs. Michigan at 10-2 will get the best bowl payoff.
This is logically the best course of action for the financial interests of the B1G as a whole.
Our Wolverines are a dangerous and unpredictable team. I like them.
Internet Raj is my hero.
I would prefer to respekt the last decade and hope for a well earned victory from one of my favorite gritty but flawed Michigan Wolverines football teams.
because there's evidence to suggest Jay might be good at his job and not just recruiting.
Ok cool. Hook 'em.
I'm totally down with hiring Bama and Ohio State's bagmen.
Urban Meyer to USC. Brohm to tOSU.

I cancelled my Xfinity/Comcast service just for making me think I might lose BTN. I told them precisely that as well.

Flint doesn't have much going for it. Let it have this one thing. Plus it's an accurate. Angelo's has the best coney dog in the world.
Your definition of "agressive language" is far different from the definition most humans I know use.

That would be fun. Invited him back for the game. Knock him out. Then O'Connor. Then Lewerke. Then Terry. That would be phenomanal.
