1 week 3 days ago I'll second Vietnamese -

I'll second Vietnamese - there are a number of good places in-between downtown and the river.  Avoid Chinese food, though - I never found any places worth eating at in KC.
1 week 4 days ago Lived there for two years in grad school

You want BBQ.  Best places are:Oklahoma Joe's, LC's, Woodyard, Arthur Bryant, Gates (preferably the one on Cleaver Blvd).  All of those are on the sketchy side except for Woodyard, but that's just the kind of town KC is when it comes to good BBQ.  If it's fancy BBQ (Jack Stack is the one that comes to mind), it's not worth eating.  Given that you have a small child and it's nighttime though, I would avoid LC's and Gates, as they are in the more questionable part of the city.  It also depends on what kind of BBQ you want.  OK Joe's has great pulled pork and ribs; LC's has the best burnt ends and fries in town; Woodyard has awesome smoked chicken; Arthur Bryant has pretty much amazing everything; Gates has great burnt ends and fries as well.  If you want a BBQ overdose, I would do OK Joe's tonight and LC's tomorrow for lunch.  You won't regret it.
21 weeks 4 days ago This is true - Bursley

This is true - Bursley probably has the best food of any dining hall.  I lived in Baits, so that was the only time I had to go to Bursley (fortunately - I really didn't like that place otherwise).
21 weeks 5 days ago Anybody saying that NC has no

Anybody saying that NC has no girls is clearly an engineer, not a musician.  I'm pretty sure the School of Music has more women than men.

I love North Campus and lived there for four years (Highlands!).  I miss walking around by the Huron River behind Baits I and playing Mafia on Friday nights in Baits II.  I don't know about the engineering and art schools, but the SoM is a really tight-knit community.  Plus, there's some great food if you can find it (Broadway Cafe, anyone?).

Michigan hired RR, spent some time in practice, came out firing in the shotgun, and put up 41 points and Henne's career-high in yardage.  It can work.
26 weeks 4 days ago As other people have said

Those fumbles weren't gifts - the defense made them.  Eventually that's good coaching, not luck.  The astounding percentage of recoveries might be luck (although I'm even beginning to doubt that one), but the creation of fumbles is not at this point.
27 weeks 4 days ago Thanks, I thought it was

Thanks, I thought it was points scored/opposing points scored.  So they have a chance!
27 weeks 4 days ago Their scoring ratio

Is 47%, so they're still significantly better than 2005 Illinois.
35 weeks 6 days ago This.  Also, if you want,

This.  Also, if you want, they will write down your preferences on a card and keep it in their file, so if you go back and can't remember what they did the first time (which always happens to me), they will know.

Penn State was averaging 18 before we played them, and then they went and hung 41 points on our D.  Take the victories where you find them.
