2 weeks 1 day ago Comfort food

Mattison's pressers are always like comfort food. You feel all warm and fuzzy afterward.

4 weeks 6 days ago Michigan football, March Madness

And the Olympics - the reasons I still have cable.

If BTN wanted to charge me $20 a month and streaming was reliable, that model changes quickly.

6 weeks 6 days ago Good to hear you are out.

Hope you get better soon.

You'd think the Cubans are spying on the mgoblog crew too...

7 weeks 5 days ago Referencing the case of Cam Newton

As long as your parents get it and you don't know about it.

8 weeks 3 days ago Exactly - Jimmy and Team

just need to beat ND, PSU and particulalry OSU and they will come. Champions of the East would douse the smoke.

8 weeks 3 days ago Women's Gymnastics won

In Raleigh against NC State, Brown and UNC too.

A shout out to M-TAC for rallying the local troops.

9 weeks 2 days ago Because we all deep down believe

the NCAA will not approve immediate eligibility just to screw Jim Harbaugh again. (SEC and Buckeye bagmen are busilly at work accidentally leaving lunch bags in NCAA offices now. Jim Delany too.)

9 weeks 2 days ago Same story, Detnews link

Link

Wish UofM had fired him the first time he was turned in for doing something perverted. I can be legally hard to fire people (vs. just lay them off), but still.

Anyway, they did the second time. And now he'll likely go to a different big house.

10 weeks 21 min ago Trying in the Arb

Everyone in Couzen's had a waxed cafeteria tray. The sledding somehow got better as the night wore on.

10 weeks 1 day ago It will be a self inflicted curse

if the "Unacceptable" "Torch and Pitchfork" crowd continue down the Fire Harbaugh! path and the '19 class suffers.

10 weeks 1 day ago Never Forget!

10 weeks 1 day ago Not at Tackle

and therein lies the problem. You can sign all the skill players you want, but if you don't have the big uglies to block and pass protect (and you can't coach up the ones you have like other teams seem to) then the skills won't have enough time.
 

There is one OL in the class. Does anyone feel the gaping hole is filled?

12 weeks 1 day ago Texas as a whole has been more of a mess than us

the past three years, but Anderson seems the type who will focus on his position. The question is, how much of a mess has Texas' O-line been compared to our ten year run? Also, what is the depth chart at his position / what is his liklihood to play?

He'll be balancing these questions against the safety of staying closer to home with people he knows.

12 weeks 2 days ago I had hawk Powerstop ceramic

and theyshed brake dust all over my front wheels. Replaced them with Wagoner and they seem fine. My rear rotors were replaced by wagoner by the auto shop. I would look on amazon and check reviews for wagoner and omix/ada.

Also, I wouldn't pay to have old rotors machined, when new ones cost about the same.

As for electric - maybe, but I'll have to keep on long distance / tow hog in the driveway.

12 weeks 3 days ago While you at it

ask them for an extended warranty on the drivetrain since you won't know if anything is wrong with it until it 'learns you". At the very least I would get it in writing that you reported a potential problem within 30 days and if a real problem is found CarMax will either pay the full cost to repair or replace the transmission.

Personally, seems an odd explanation to me, and I just changed a transmission out on my son's Jeep. (So far had a good experience with a remanufactured transmission from Moveras if anyone is interested.)

[Edit: info on adaptive shift on Moveras web site: http://www.moveras.com/app_moveras/Vendor/relearn.php ]

12 weeks 3 days ago You bring up a good point

have them change the transmission fluid and filter (or have them pay to have it done). Be in the shop when they drain it and pull the filter. If there are bits of metal shavings in there return the car.

12 weeks 3 days ago Lighten up Francis

I thought it was funny, and rather than being some kind of sarcastic slight against Wilton, it is more a sarcastic slight against all the stress mongering rumors surrounding New England on a day when the "old" GOAT may not have played due to a hand injury, but he did, and he won.

13 weeks 6 hours ago I said this previously - but this is true

I sat on a jury for one of these cases. The mother could not believe the father had done what he did, and tried to rationalize how her daughter could be so confused. Fortunately, the daughter had involved teachers, and the mother brought clergy in, who then brought in the police and counselling.

It was horrible to sit through the case. Four days of hearing awful things. I emergeed with a much deeper appreciation for judges, DAs, counselors and criminal defense lawyers. True service.

13 weeks 1 day ago I think this would be bigger

if during the run up to the summer olympics when people pay more attention to gymnastics. Kerrigan / Harding was pretty big because of timing.

13 weeks 1 day ago I agree with you in this way

If by bias and fake news you mean endless editorial discussion of opinions about the news to support an agenda - then yes.

This is very different however, from presenting unverified content from the internet or other sources as news.

13 weeks 1 day ago I'll put my comment back in

Note: this is a news comment, not a political comment:

In my opinion CNN jumped the shark from being a news organization a long time ago. Somehow they decided to take the agenda themed strategy from Fox, and fill the day with "breaking news" editorial round table discussion. What is discussed may be vetted with a news level of veracity better than others, but they have come a long way from the news reporting agency they used to be (e.g., during the first Gulf War) - especially Headline News - all in the name of ratings. To me, this is a big reason they are being challenged.

In my view all the cable news channels have become equally unwatchable, because you have to gleen the actual factual news out of the endless editorial discussion of opinions on "the news channel".

Of course what do I know - to me news should be like old school Walter Cronkite news, where the news is presented and there may be an editorial short as part of the broadcast.

13 weeks 2 days ago Maybe it's "Boliviated"

But, yeah, good question

We need Brian to do a Dave Brandon Stop Drinking email level analysis and out this pestulence.

13 weeks 2 days ago I'm with Don here

if you can triangulate who it is - create a post listing name and home town, and all the aliases, and then tweet out a public shaming linking to the post.

People behave better when they know there are consequnces, and in this case banning, Bolivia and point bashing isn't enough.

13 weeks 6 days ago Watched the OSU 2016 one ...

annnd I am still pissed off.

Will not watch the MSU 2015 one. No way. Has to be one of the absolute worst moments in Michigan football history.

13 weeks 6 days ago Done
