| 22 weeks 5 days ago | Northwestern to UA |
This is slightly off topic, but as I don't have thread starting privileges this thread is most relevant. Northwestner signed with Under Armour, so look forward to awful jerseys for years to come. What struck me most was the quote from NW's AD: "It will enhance our recruiting in all 19 of our sports." Is this based on fact at all? I'd be curious to see before & after results with recruiting based on uniforms. In my mind, you may get a quick mention extra mention in the media the first time you have some crazy jerseys, but does that really translate to anything other than everyone thinking you have ridiculous looking jerseys? I doubt it, but then again I haven't analyzed it statistically at all. |

I think Brady should have won it, but all of these postseason awards are a farce anyway. Even the Heisman has no criteria for how to vote, so it's all based on opinion, PR, location, etc. Granted, I think it's fine this way, at least better than letting the BCS computers decide awards, but it will lead to "controversy" at times. |

Willbe pretty cool to see WSU on TV. I'm pulling for the Tartars in this one. |

Watching The Wiggles over here... Those guys know how to sing! |

I can see the chant now... "We Are.....Wayne State" Seriously, though, those would be sweet for WSU, for MSU, absolutely awful. Why can't schools be subtle with their uniforms? We added the little 'M' to ours on the neck - nice and subtle, but still a change. I would hate to see what Nike would try to do to us if they still had us...Maybe brown fur on the back to simulate an actual wolverine? |

Also makes a bit of a difference as to if the home and home has our home game as game 1 or game 2. Choosing an arbitrary discount rate of 10% Scenario 1: Year 0: (107000 * 70) - 1000000 = 6,490,000 PV Year 1:[(107000*70) - 1000000]/1.1 = 5,900,000 PV(1) = 12,390,000 Scenario 2a: Year 0: (107000*85) = 9095000 Year 1: 0 PV(2a) = 9,095,000 Scenario 2b: Year 0: 0 PV Year 1: 8,268,181 PV(2b) = 8,268,181 So the difference could be as large as 4.121MM or as small as 3.295MM Also, I am assuming there are absolutely 0 taxes involved as UM is a public institution, but perhaps a tax guy determine for sure and utilities, game day salaries, concession sales, etc. are immaterial (which may be a false assumption). Also would have to factor in parking revenue at university lots, etc and various other game day revenue streams. |

Well, my gamertag is Telecast (Add me people! I need more people to play with!) but my Clan tag on COD is "HOKE" so that's my tribute. I'd change my gamertag, but have been rocking this one for 7 years, so can't get rid of it now. |

Although the concept of Hokemon has potential, this wasn't doing it for me. Definitely not when compared to the animated GIF of the brandon/miles/hoke video chat from last week. |

I guess I will be the lone dissenter. I still read the Free Press. Haven't you guys seen the Lion King? All that stuff is in the past. Let's be forward looking! Every paper has its fault, including the big ones (NYT and its blatant liberal propoganda, etc.). I agree that Sharp is horrible but at least he offers an individual opinion (as ridiculous as it may be/usually is) but about 1/10 times he actually spits out something worthwhile. |

Addtiionally, for those of you w/ XBOX Live (or your computer if you prefer) you can watch the game on ESPN3. Discovered this last night, never really used the ESPN3 functionality until now, but now that I cancelled cable, I have to resort to this for my sports needs. |
