Tim Hardaway and Trey Burke weren't really high-profile players, nor was Darius Morris, and all were high-profile players. "We're still looking at 'who is the best fit.' "

2 days 9 hours ago Templeton

Yes, I have a bottle of it in circulation right now. I am not sure if it is sweeter vs a little less spicy than a typical rye, but I absolutely agree it is very good. Another favorite it Bulleit. I have tried bourbons, but they definitely taste too sweet for me.

2 days 13 hours ago The Macallan 18

is definitely my favorite. I personally prefer Highland and Speyside malts to the much more peaty Islay. Unfortunately, it's now going for something like $175/bottle? As a result I tried bourbons, but have since made my way over to ryes....

6 days 13 hours ago I didn't know they made

off-road unicycles. That tire is impressive....

1 week 18 hours ago Parting

is such sweet sorrow......

1 week 5 days ago Ender's Game is a great book

Well deserving all of its awards. I had heard they were making the movie, but didn't realise it was this close to release. I imagine the CGI had to catch up with the story to make it work. In the meantime, I would really love to see William Gibson's Neuromancer made into a movie....

1 week 5 days ago I am looking forward to McGary

being just as unstoppable underneath the basket.

2 weeks 8 hours ago Didn't look like much of a snake.

Come out to AZ, and deal with a diamondback rattler. Then I'll be impressed.....

2 weeks 3 days ago Capitol One

is also one of the few credit cards that doesn't charge an exchange fee if you travel abroad. If you pay for something that is 10€, it will be $13.05 (the exchange rate at this exact moment) and that's it. I also like that they are really on top of any unusual activity regarding the use of your card.

2 weeks 3 days ago Arizona

A lovely place to be late December/early January. I can see either major stadium from my house....! I hate to say this, but during the recent dark age I was kinda hoping we would make the Insight Bowl.

2 weeks 6 days ago This thread gives me the opportunity to post this:

3 weeks 5 days ago You were watching the game and texting

while driving down I-94? Please tell us you were the passenger and someone else was actually doing the driving? There is a far worse jinx in play here than the softball game....

4 weeks 18 hours ago I am an avid cyclist and fan

yet wasn't aware we had a club team. Thanks for the update!

4 weeks 3 days ago Hail! Hail! To Michigan

Champions of the East?

4 weeks 4 days ago Happy

5 weeks 1 day ago Good-bye, good luck

and thank you!

5 weeks 3 days ago Pardon me

while I go run through some brick walls....

5 weeks 3 days ago I personally find it worth it

...it is a nice morning ritual that takes less than 10 minutes once you get used to it. Part of the problem is in the past guys would learn from their fathers the proper way to shave, but this has gone by the wayside in this age of multi-blade cartridges and pressurized goo from a can. There are very few instances where men really take the time to take care of themselves, and this can be one of them. The Art of Shaving stuff is a nice gateway drug, but you will quickly move past it. You can even start with the brush, shaving soap, oils, etc. but still use your cartridge shaver; afterward you will at least want to get into a decent double-edged blade. That little smoke shop in the Nichols Arcade in Ann Arbor has a lot of that stuff. Some people go all the way to the straight edge razor with the strop and everything, but personally I think that is a bit too much. It was the invention of the double-edged razor blade and safety razor that got people out of the barbershops and into their homes in the first place. There is however, a really cool retro thing about the straight edge razor, just don't expect to be able to take it in your carry-on baggage!

Be aware, there is a learning curve to shaving properly, but there are also many resources (check out Mantic59 on YouTube, or the Badgers and Blades website) to get you going. The overall results, are really worth it.

5 weeks 3 days ago Shaving is a ritual

A little pre-shave oil
A dab of Truefitt & Hill Trafalgar on a silver-tip badger brush
Whip until in a frenzy of foam, apply hot with circular motion
A Merkur Futur razor with Feather blades, set at "3"
A total of three passes, applying new layers of foam at the end of each pass- with, across, then finally against the grain;
Ice cold water rinse, dabbing carefully
Apply some aftershave balm...ahh!!!!

But not shaving can be a ritual too.....RESPECT.

5 weeks 3 days ago Make everyone happy

Kate Upton

5 weeks 5 days ago The essence of shadenfreude

is in the reactions of fans who take all of this sports stuff a little bit too close to the heart- i.e., the very basis of their self-esteem is directly in correlation with the fortunes of their team. There is nothing wrong with laughing at the more outlandish examples, as long as we keep perspective and remember to laugh at ourselves- or at the very least win or lose magnaimously. In our current situation, just a few weeks ago we would have been very satisfied with making the Sweet Sixteen, and everything else since then should be taken as a glorious ride that came this close to ending in relative ecstacy. Not to mention boding well for the future- one day soon our preseason expectations will be to make the Final Four, with a strong possiblity of winning the whole thing. We have wandered in the wilderness a long time...

6 weeks 3 hours ago I was going to drink champagne if we won

...and whiskey if we lost, But then I said "fuck it, I am proud of this team!" and popped the cork. They are everything to our University and I wish Trey a bright future in the NBA, while foreseeing a bright future for Michigan Basketball. Oh, and way to go, Spike!!

Hold your heads up and celebrate, as it has been said here before, "Sports!"

6 weeks 11 hours ago This is brilliant

beyond brilliant.

6 weeks 18 hours ago Exactly

how I feel. Good thing I read down far enough before posting!

6 weeks 1 day ago DVR

Always add a full hour- you never know with OT and such, especially if it is the second game of a double-header.

6 weeks 1 day ago Some props to the cheerleader front row

third from the right- she gets it immediately, can anyone read lips?

6 weeks 2 days ago We beat

Havoc

The 2-3 zone.

Offense, bitches!

6 weeks 3 days ago I was at the annual hospital black-tie

event at a swanky hotel in Chicago the night of the semi-final vs Kentucky, me and several other UM grads were conspicuously absent for a major portion of the event, being up in someone's room drinking, shouting and watching the game. We caught a bit of shit from my department head for missing most of the event. Two night later, I was on obstetrics call as an anesthesiologist for the same hospital, watching the final as quietly as I could in my call room, with the double anxiety of the game as well as praying that I wouldn't get called for an epidural or something until after the game was over. So what happened? A STAT C-section, about 30 seconds before Webber walked (after rebounding the missed free throw- how come everyone else on the team was already up the court?), then called the timeout. Missed that last minute, and there was no way around it; even worse, spending the next hour in the OR not knowing how it turned out.....

6 weeks 4 days ago Thanks for freeing up my Monday night.

The universe is a cruel thing, and is not to be fucked with. Allow me to join the "TAKE THIS DOWN!!!!!!" chorus.

7 weeks 6 hours ago Johnny Wangler had an ACL tear in the Gator Bowl '79

and was on the field that fall vs Notre Dame (though he couldn't run worth a damn). And that was 30 years ago medical science. Bellomy may be able to make it back in time to do a John Navarre imitiation.

7 weeks 6 hours ago Shoot, stepping off a curb the wrong way

can result in an ACL tear. Or you can do it my way, make believe you are a black-diamond skier....
