34 weeks 2 days ago If Al wants cactus

he will have to go to Tucson.  There are no saguaro cactus here at 7,000 feet.  UNM should really think twice before going for another offensive coordinator from the Big Ten.
1 year 33 weeks ago santa fe

nmwolverine here. Santa Fe native.  Grew up in Philadelphia area (Lower Merion HS).  Enjoy the big sunny skies but usually get out to northern Michigan in the summers (for a week or two anyway).  Would be curious as to the names of the ABQ bars, although at game time I am parked in my living room.
2 years 9 weeks ago The last Ivy League team

I was a sophomore at Penn in spring 1979 when they were the last Ivy League school to get this far. Those old enough recall they beat a good Syracuse team and then knocked off #1 seed North Carolina. They slowed down after that, beating another overacheiving team (St. Johns?) and then losing by 50 pts to Michigan State led by you know who. I felt they played well and had some bad luck that day, layups not going down etc. They should have lost by no more than 25.
The point is that a good Ivy League team can surprise and win. To do that they need to be very hot from the outside. So I predict Cornell will win without having seen them play. Kentucky is beatable. They won a number of very close games this year.

2 years 15 weeks ago expensive for a college student maybe

Here in NM, it is about $100 for a civil filing fee, about $125 for the newspaper publication charge, and either a minimal attorneys fee or better yet free simple forms for a do it yourself process, including the 5 minute hearing with the judge. I am convinced sham would have persuaded the judge the name change is a good idea.

This is the best idea Brian ever had. It could really help people who need the help. Legal questions. Can you do this for the football and no other teams? Since there is not a girls football team, a Title IX issue always lurks.

2 years 23 weeks ago not worried about football

worried about basketball after Manny and Sims are gone. Please discuss.
2 years 24 weeks ago If this happened to Michigan

If Michigan had beaten Illinois, and qualified for a bowl game, and was offered either Pizza Bowl or GMAC Bowl, and turned it down, I would be disgusted with this team and its holier than thou attitude. I would never look at them the same way. I would say, "Look at yourselves. You are a 6-6 team. Practice, go to the Bowl game and get better. You are what you are." I recall Notre Dame did this some years ago, maybe with Bob Davie. It does not meet my standards.

when we could be talking about important topics like Tiger Woods' private life.
2 years 25 weeks ago comments on Griese make me think of Brady 1998

1. Opening day. Looked sharp in loss against ND. Pleasantly surprised with the new guy despite team around him caving.
2. Bowl game against Arkansas. A great win, but I remember the following. Second half, Brady throws a sort of duck to a receiver in the end zone. It was apparent while the ball was in the air that it would be intercepted, and it was. I said to myself "There he goes again. When will he ever learn to be smarter with the ball." He was of course a fourth year junior playing in a conservative scheme. Coaches can only do so much.
