Date Title Body
22 weeks 4 days ago I don't have the specific

I don't have the specific NCAA rule handy but basically once they're considered a scholarship athlete there has to be some objective basis for the academic scholarship or it counts against the athletics budget.

So a school could offer everyone with a 3.5 high school GPA five grand but they can't "randomly" award 20/20 scholarships to the hockey players.

44 weeks 3 days ago Pretty sure Michigan only pays a fraction of that.

Per this 2015 MLive article his base salary is $400k. Don't know what else (other than bonuses) Michigan is shelling out but that's a pretty good start on a, um, full endowment.

1 year 6 days ago Does anyone have any

Does anyone have any experience with Microsoft Teams? I work at a massive company that uses Skype for virtually everything but recently got access to Teams. I would be open to trying something new for a project I'm leading but don't know what I might be missing by sticking with Skype.

Doc sharing or voice/video aren't anything we use much, mostly just text based collaboration and discussion.

1 year 10 weeks ago Forgot he was snake oiled

Forgot he was snake oiled until you posted this, but won't ever forget him drawing first blood 14 seconds into that 2010 Illinois shootout.

Illinois sold out to stop Denard from running and Roundtree easily took it to the house.

1 year 13 weeks ago Gotta give 'em a break.

Not everyone can avoid saying/doing terrible and insensitive things as well as Franklin Delano Blueth.

1 year 13 weeks ago Can we vote before doing

Can we vote before doing something so drastic? I'll find PGB and bring him out of retirement for that one if I have to.

1 year 13 weeks ago No.

No.

1 year 13 weeks ago You could always work backwards from here.

Although if a mod is sitting there putting that many nines they're probably not coming back any time soon.

I know I've been mostly silent lately but this sounds like fun.

I don't want to unequivocally say I'll do at least one but I'll almost definitely do at least one.

1 year 15 weeks ago Sentenced to hard labor in Siberia, you know that...

I've been around, just haven't been posting. Got a week off to spend up here so that'll probably change for now.

1 year 15 weeks ago I'll be there! Been a long

I'll be there! Been a long time, glad to be back in Ann Arbor (briefly)!

1 year 26 weeks ago I can appreciate that. Just

I can appreciate that. Just don't think anyone should be joining in with cheering on Penn State given the big picture (obviously hoping mediocre Franklin sticks takes that into account).

1 year 26 weeks ago Hilarious to see OSU lose and

Hilarious to see OSU lose and love to see them drop, but I hope anyone with positive feelings about PSU takes a moment to think about it.

Love seeing OSU drop. Hate to see Penn State somehow rise because of it.

1 year 30 weeks ago NittanyFan, I'll admit to my

NittanyFan, I'll admit to my own bias here but will interject to say that I have found most of your posts well thought out (and IMO introspective) and that Reader71 is one of the most respected voices here for very good reasons.

Kill someone if you must but you have a serious person (Reader71) questioning a passionate and well informed visitor.

Please engage.

1 year 33 weeks ago Currently sitting at work.

Between the tropical depression on the way and some of the stuff going on here I would gladly do either one of these comments in the Great White North if someone wants to pay my bills. I'll produce a reality show and a series of diaries so we can sell advertising rights.

1 year 34 weeks ago .

Accurate statement is accurate.

1 year 34 weeks ago I emailed Brian that

I emailed Brian that afternoon about the ban being pretty funny but can we also make sure he's not actually banned and Brian obviously agreed. I brought him back and emailed Everyone Murders on the account we have but didn't get a response there. I also left a comment but he didn't lurk on the post that got banned :/.

1 year 34 weeks ago Sometimes, yes.

Sometimes, yes.

Marsupial Monday is my favorite hour of the day.

1 year 34 weeks ago Just as an FYI, any

Just as an FYI, any worthwhile original content justifies a separate OP even if the subjects are identical. If we have six or seven wallpaper threads in a row we'll make an adjustment from our end, but original content shouldn't be relegated to comments in the vast majority of cases.

1 year 34 weeks ago Do you have a smartphone,

Do you have a smartphone, tablet, or access to one? Best way to ID music is downloading Shazam.

If you posted the video and I didn't know what the song was that's where I would go.

1 year 35 weeks ago It's not a black and white

It's not a black and white system and everyone approaches things differently, but speaking for myself actual, long term users aren't just suddenly banned. The two exceptions off the top of my head would be crossing the line into using slurs or personally going after a student athlete.

For things like politics or not playing nice with other posters, anyone with a legit history is going to get at least one warnng when it's me making the call.*

*Speaking broadly, I'm sure there's an exception in there somewhere.

1 year 35 weeks ago This happened yesterday, but

This happened yesterday, but I had the incredible privilege to watch my high school cross country teammate and friend win silver in the 3000m Steeplechase. Really an incredible feat. First mens US steeple medal since 1984 and broke an Olympic record that had stood since 1988 (granted Kipruto beat it by a better margin).

1 year 36 weeks ago skurnie; new mod!?!?

If so, welcome and please shoot me an email whenever you get a second. LSA and I have untold riches that need nothing more than an email to unlock after all.

I don't know how uniform it is, but ideally I delete all of the spammers posts, ban and block the account and delete the avatar. The last bit is probably overkill, but it's an easy box to click on that particular screen and it's usually something especially stupid.

Also Seth is 100% right that spam blocks don't need justifying (not that he needs me to back him up).

Harbaugh would.

He recommended driving at 800 mph, so I think the hour calculation is pretty solid.
