24 weeks 1 day ago	Map needs a new editor	Hey guys, I haven't updated the map at all this season - we had a baby in early September, so I've been a bit busy.  Would anyone else be willing/able to take over as map editor?  It's not hard at all.  Shoot me an email: jayloh [at] gmail dot com. Thanks!
25 weeks 1 day ago	Download good, streaming bad	I've had the restart problem with Downcast, but ONLY if I try to stream the podcast rather than download it first.  Once it's downloaded in its entirety, it works fine.  I'm not sure how the official Apple podcasts app works, but perhaps it's a streaming issue?   (Also, I heartily recommend Downcast.  It is a great, great app.)
1 year 7 weeks ago	Paul GYARmati?
1 year 28 weeks ago	Why isn't he still the coach of the future?	I thought the assumption was that he took the Tech job to build his resume before Red's inevitable retirement?  My memory is that Brian or somebody reported that Dave Brandon wanted to make sure that Red's replacement had head coaching experience, which prompted Mel to look elsewhere.
1 year 35 weeks ago	Thanks, added.	*
1 year 35 weeks ago	Baltimore location changed, apparently	Someone left a comment on the google map that the Baltimore viewing location has been changed from Ropewalk to a place called Crazy Lil's, so I updated the map to reflect this.
1 year 37 weeks ago	Up-to-date as of 9/2/2011	I hadn't been in this thread for a while, so the map was a bit out-of-date.  I think I've got everything updated now.  If anyone knows of any other places, or sees info on the map that's incorrect, let me know and I'll fix it.
1 year 43 weeks ago	Easy there, guys	I don't read this or Misopogon's previous post as accusing Hoke of abusing medical scholarships or doing anything shady. They're pointing out that we're in the uncomfortable situation where our coach has publicly committed to taking more recruits than we were aware we had scholarships for. Now that we find out where those scholarships are coming from, it's understandable that some would cock an eyebrow. Brian's bound to write something one way or the other, after his one-man campaign against the Saban/Nutt school of recruiting. I wouldn't be surprised if he writes essentially what all of us are thinking - if Hoke was going to Saban anyone, he'd go after the slot ninjas, not Pace and Talbott. Regardless, if he doesn't cover it in some form, we'll be seeing all the ESS-EEE-SEE bloggers call him a hypocrite. EDIT: just to be clear, this was meant as a reply to MCalibur, MGoShoe, Don, etc.
1 year 43 weeks ago	Nah, go with player names.	Woodson for a boy, Biakabutuka for a girl.  (That's a good girl's name, right?)
1 year 44 weeks ago	Is it too late to kill this "B1G" thing?	Just because the conference decides to give itself a silly new logo doesn't mean we have to buy in and use it ourselves. It only takes three more keystrokes to type out "Big 10", and it's definitely worth the effort.
1 year 51 weeks ago	Congratulations!	Glad to hear it.  Things are trending upwards, but it's still a tough market.
1 year 51 weeks ago	Offtopic, but were you able to find a biglaw job?	I remember a thread from quite a while ago where you mentioned that OCI hadn't gone so well.  Hope everything worked out.
2 years 13 weeks ago	If a tree falls on him in the	If a tree falls on him in the woods and nobody's around to hear it... would anybody care?
2 years 14 weeks ago	Great music	I gotta say, I love the background music for that highlight reel - seems perfect for a big guy like that.  The only way it could get better would be if this was the soundtrack.
2 years 18 weeks ago	I'm guessing you're at ND Law?	I spent all last semester combing the Midwest for summer jobs, and wound up finding one with a firm in Indy. If you have an interest in talking strategy, drop me a line at jaloh [at] nlaw [dot] northwestern [dot] edu
2 years 18 weeks ago	Truth	With patent prosecution, you know all your deadlines far in advance. You can plan accordingly and actually, you know, have a life outside the office. (So I've been told, anyway. I'll find out for sure this summer and report back.)
2 years 18 weeks ago	Networking is key	I know a couple weaker students who got summer jobs long before I did, because they knew the right people at the right firms. Also, your first semester grades don't have much bearing on your final GPA. My first semester was pretty average, but it's come up every semester since then.
2 years 34 weeks ago	I should clarify,	I'm not sure if he meant they were working with YouTube and Justin.tv in a general, ongoing sense, or if he was talking about some new specific push.
2 years 34 weeks ago	2L	And it's every bit as bad as everyone says it is.
2 years 36 weeks ago	Thanks, updated.	-
2 years 37 weeks ago	Let's give him some credit	He was probably booed at more than once.
2 years 39 weeks ago	I wish him the best, but...	I think it may be more a reflection of the Raiders' talent than Stevie's.
2 years 39 weeks ago	...will repeat 40-year-old platitudes?	Look, I love the quote in it's original context, and the historical significance is great.  That being said, deploying it every single time a player leaves really diminishes its meaning.
2 years 39 weeks ago	Sports Bar and Grill and Bodeans have multiple locations	Will they all show UM games? And am I correct in assuming that these are all just sports bars that show a ton of games?  Or is one an official UM alumni gathering spot?
2 years 40 weeks ago	Up-to-date as of 8/15	I've got everything from the thread in the map as of today.  I've also reorganized a bit - there were so many bars, I had to clean things up to make it easier to use.  Good problem to have, I guess. Is it kickoff yet?  I can't wait to head to Duffy's or Mad River for the UConn game.
2 years 43 weeks ago	When my wife started watching football with me...	She would stick up for Pam Ward, and call me sexist when I complained about her announcing.  Now that she knows a bit more, she complains even worse than I do - if there's going to be a token female announcer, Mrs. Lo wants it to be someone who's going to represent the gender well.
2 years 45 weeks ago	Hmm...	The Top 10, and other recruits of interest (or who might be at some point): ...     http://mgoblog.com/themes/tapestry/images/breadcrumb-arrow.png); background-position: 0.7em 0.4em; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; "> 73 OL Bryan Bell 74 OL Willie Beavers Is the interest in Willie Beavers due to his football skills, or just his fantastic name?
2 years 46 weeks ago	Is it at the M-Den yet?	I'll be in A2 this weekend, and thought I'd swing by to pick up a copy if it's there - faster than waiting for it to be shipped.
2 years 47 weeks ago	You forgot...	...a sublime athlete, a perfect body type. [no homo.]
2 years 47 weeks ago	How do you think he got so many?	One point per post * 10 posts per argument * 12 arguments per day = a lot of mgopoints.
