6 years 30 weeks ago	Classy	Can't say enough about how classy their football program is. Just a really classy group of guys.
6 years 30 weeks ago	Also a Kazoo transplant in Chicago	and I agree that Dragon's Milk is unbelievably good. One of my favorites. New Holland puts out some very, very good beer. Any IPA fans out there? I just tried Three Floyds IPA a few weeks back and was blown away. Very good stuff.
6 years 30 weeks ago	Harsh	I don't know how you can call Green Line "tasteless swill" but to each his own. Personally, I think it's a decent brew. Matilda is probably their finest product and 312 is good but not great. Goose Island does put out very good beer; here's to hoping that continues.
6 years 30 weeks ago	Among my earliest sports memories	is being overwhelmed by the excitement that shot generated. Grant Hill will always be one of my favorite Pistons. Respect!
6 years 40 weeks ago	???	Do you think DB actually interviewed him for the position? Miles said he could not speak to the "substance" of the meeting. Why would DB discuss anything other than the coaching position? And why can't we hire a friggin' head coach? So many questions. So few answers. Head officially asplode.
6 years 40 weeks ago	I wanted Oregon to win	...until Corso put on that duck mask. Then I just wanted to stadium to implode. If Miles is introduced as our next coach, maybe we can make a Les Miles mask for Game Day picks.
6 years 41 weeks ago	I brought the sammiches	I brought the sammiches for the post-posbang eating sesh.
6 years 41 weeks ago	Hello	I came for the posbang.
7 years 8 weeks ago	Pay those players!	No money? Fie on this study! Won't someone please think of the children?! They should be paid! Their families are starving and their free-rides just don't cut it. If only those godless, freedom-hating Communists at the NCAA could get this through their Neanderthal, pea-sized brains! /s *goes to freeze himself in time for kickoff on Sept. 4th*
7 years 9 weeks ago	Dinardo	Let's just throw in the towel now, guys. Our defense is not built to stop teams with "downhill" style running attacks. Unfortunately the laws of college football are incredibly rigid: if you feature a spread attack, your defense can only play well against offenses that feature a spread attack. Damn it! I forgot all about that old law.
7 years 9 weeks ago	My genitalia	My genitalia might not recover so easily this time. Dong thoroughly punched through. Ow.
7 years 39 weeks ago	I'm pretty sure	I'm pretty sure Cass Tech players decline offers from State because, well, State sucks. Wilcher doesn't really have to point that out - it's a well-known fact.
7 years 40 weeks ago	Dumb and Dumber reference?	Given the context, I love it.
7 years 40 weeks ago	I heard he's related	to our very own Denard Robinson.
7 years 41 weeks ago	I have a feeling	I have a feeling there are many schools out there claiming to be the originators of a certain chant. I wonder how often Miami, Florida, Tennessee or anyone else ridicules Michigan for the "It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine" line. I'm not going to pretend to be an authority in the area and claim to know exactly when and where every chant originated. If nothing else, take heart at this imitation for it is the sincerest form of flattery ... or unoriginality ;)
7 years 41 weeks ago	Yes.	Yes. It really does sit that low. They dug up a lot of earth when they constructed this stadium.
7 years 42 weeks ago	I understand	I understand the frustration with Lovie Smith. The owners are reputedly frugal, perhaps to a fault. I think the Bears should be much, much better than this. No one likes a bunch of underachievers ...
7 years 42 weeks ago	And yeah	the logos faintly resemble one another.
7 years 42 weeks ago	My cousins	are also Bears fans. They live a block or two away from Soldier Field. Earlier in the season, my cousin's facebook status was: "Now I know what it's like to be a Lions fan..." to which I replied: Yes, because your team hasn't been to the playoffs consistently this decade to say nothing of the fact that you've made it to the Super Bowl. Yeah. You know how it feels to be a Lions fan. No other fan base in the NFL save perhaps the Browns's, knows how it feels to be a Lions fan. They have two great options in the draft between Suh and Eric Berry but it will be at least another two years to see real progress and a legitimate playoff run.
7 years 42 weeks ago	Anyone remember when	Anyone remember when it was the Builder's Square Alamo Bowl? That game against TAMU drove me nuts. We totally got jobbed in that one. Damn the Big XII.
7 years 44 weeks ago	Posts like these	make me wish I could +100. Excellent Simpsons reference.
7 years 45 weeks ago	University of Chicago.	Our prodigal son. Let's bring them back. Hell, they have more Big Ten championships than Michigan State. /sarcasm.
7 years 45 weeks ago	Coach Rod	has won 3 conference games thus far and has won 8 games in two years. I don't think the AD interpreted these wins as "job-saving."
7 years 45 weeks ago	Bo Pelini	Bo Pelini wasted little time turning the Nebraska defense around. It shouldn't take long for Gerg to install his system if indeed he is a great defensive mind. I have faith.
7 years 45 weeks ago	Exactly.	Charlie Weis never struggled to recruit great talent. I don't see this changing anything. We need to start delivering on the field every Saturday and worry about what we can do to improve our lot on the recruiting trail. Let's not get too preoccupied with this Kelly hire. It's still business as usual as far as I'm concerned.
7 years 45 weeks ago	Great hire.	If Kelly is going to be successful, however, he will need to focus much of his energy on improving Notre Dame's defense. We know they'll put up lots of points but will the defense improve? Coach Rod is in the same boat right now. Defense wins championships!
7 years 45 weeks ago	Carvin --	If you read this, know there are plenty of Michigan fans who are thrilled with your verbal commitment. Can't wait to see you in the winged helmet! Go Blue!
7 years 46 weeks ago	It's mostly a story of credits transferring.	My friend transferred from Eastern Michigan, a fully-accredited institution of higher education and many of her credits did not transfer to M. It can make things awfully difficult for JUCO players.
7 years 46 weeks ago	It's very difficult to	just go out and bring in an experienced player from another program. The staff doesn't waste time touring the country, trying to poach players from other universities. And even if we could land a solid transfer, he would have to sit out a year as NCAA rules dictate. What coaches try to do to get a "quick fix" is bring in JUCO players but this has been discussed before. Not only is it difficult to get the credits to transfer, we don't appear to attract many. Let's just wait and see how the rest of the recruiting season plays out before we panic.
7 years 46 weeks ago	What he failed to realize sooner	is that one of Tebow's tears would have given him everlasting life.
