2 years 21 weeks ago	Tackling	... teach them to tackle with their heads down and lead with their helmets? I'd prefer to have my defensive players have movement in all of their extremities after tackling, thanks.

2 years 36 weeks ago	I'm in China for the time	I'm in China for the time being, and I've been trying to catch Michigan games by either 1) going to bars that show college football here. Usually it's on tape delay (there's a 12 hour time difference so games are at 3AM on Sunday morning here). your best bet is to contact someone from the alumni association. Maybe there will be a bar that shows the game, if not, maybe someone owns a slingbox and they will be showing the game at someone's house. 2) do you have comcast? if so, you can access ESPN3 with your comcast account anywhere in the world I believe 3) do you have a vpn? if not, use the umich vpn (search for it online) and use it so all your internet traffic is rerouted through Ann Arbor. This way, you can watch streams such as justin.tv, espn3, etc. 4) streamtorrent

3 years 2 weeks ago	Drove my housemate to the	Drove my housemate to the Sprint store this morning and he got the phone. I played around with the store demo for around an hour and was very impressed I've had: HTC Touch Pro (Windows Mobile = death) Currently using a Blackberry Tour - functional but not really fun The Evo seemed like the perfect blend of form and function, but it was a little too big for my tastes. I found out that I'm a premier customer so I'm eligible for 2 years upgrades every year, so I might head back and get the phone soon. Sprint is dirt cheap compared to AT&T and Verizon. My plan, Everything 450 includes unlimited mobile to mobile, data, and texts for like 50 bucks after taxes. My friend's comparable iPhone plans are all 90+
3 years 3 weeks ago	I believe Locke is implying	I believe Locke is implying that this world that Jack is in isn't real, since the flash-sideways is "purgatory" or whatever you want to call it. In the real world, where Jack died on the island, he didn't have a son.
3 years 3 weeks ago	I think the producers did	I think the producers did such an amazing job on the ending that it made me forget about some pressing issues, such as: wtf is the Island anyways? What is the origin of the Island? The producers seemed to have glossed over some of intricacies of the story, but they crafted a beautiful ending so that we would forget about these details haha
3 years 3 weeks ago	From what I	From what I understand: Flight 815 crashed, and everyone didn't die. Everything that happened in our normal timeline, the island, leaving, the Oceanic 6, going back to the Island, these things all occured. When Jack dies at the end of the finale, he dies, and waits to go to heaven. Meanwhile, the people who escaped, we can assume that they went on to live their lives and will eventually die (Kate, Miles, etc). This is why Christian Shepard tells Jack that he is dead, along with everyone else in the church and that they died in different times. The last scene in the church, along with the flash-sideways timeline is all from Jack's point of view. It is Jack's heaven, and the church is what Christian said, somewhere for them all to reunite before moving on to the afterlife, because the time they shared on the Island (which was real) was the most important time in their lives. However, the show did not explain a lot of loose ends, and from I understand, the creators aren't planning to reveal anything in the next couple months, leaving us to debate about the details.

3 years 7 weeks ago	And this is why I've stopped	And this is why I've stopped watching all of ESPN's coverage of the draft and started watching NFL Network. Mike Mayock has to be one of the most on point talent evaluators I've seen, and everyone on that show is there because they either offer expert analysis or because they offer comic relief.

3 years 8 weeks ago	We ran the speed option first	We ran the speed option first against Iowa last year I believe. It was the play that got the Daily in trouble and then made RR install more practice spying countermeasures. I believe it was the Daily (correct me if I'm wrong) that described the play in the practices leading up to the Iowa game.

3 years 11 weeks ago	I believe MGoRob is	I believe MGoRob is correct. Is there also a rule that transfers are forbidden from receiving a scholarship from a school within the conference, regardless of if the coach gives the release?
3 years 11 weeks ago	Out of the	Out of the Freep/DetNews/AnnArbor.com/ESPN, Rittenberg has got to be my favorite journalist covering Michigan Football right now. He has some lapses in reason, but most of the time he is pretty impartial and corrects his mistakes, which is more than I can say for the other 3 outlets.
3 years 13 weeks ago	Jackson and Miller	I see Ricardo and Jeremy together on campus all the time and Jeremy is clearly an inch or more taller than Ricardo is, even though Ricardo is listed as taller.
3 years 13 weeks ago	Equipment	As a football equipment/gear freak, it's cool to see that more Wolverines have adopted the new Revo Speed helmet. Looks sweet!
3 years 13 weeks ago	On a completely unrelated	On a completely unrelated Demar note, I'm sitting at home and my window is open, and a car just came down my street bumpin' Wocka Flocka Flame. Maybe Demar is here to pay Birkett a visit?
3 years 14 weeks ago	Yeah, I absolutely	Yeah, I absolutely understand. I just hope that the coaches potentially adding the midline would mean that Tate and Denard have progressed to a point where they are handling the zone read better and so the coaches think they can handle the midline.
3 years 14 weeks ago	Midline	Midline is explosive, as evidenced by Oregon's breakout games where they average 300+ rushing yards a game or something equally ridiculous. HOWEVER, we have seen that Tate and Denard do not even run the zone option perfectly or anything approaching that, and I would think that the midline is a quicker read to make. They struggled all year making the read on the end. Watching Oregon from this year, it is clear how experienced Masoli is at running the midline and zone read (yes, I know he is a RS Senior now). We all have heard that Denard was a single wing QB in high school, so hopefully with a year of experience and another spring's worth of practice, we can successfully run a multitude of run looks next year - the zone read, triple option, midline, veer, and the speed option we unveiled at Iowa.
3 years 15 weeks ago	China	I read this article a couple days ago, and being Chinese, it kind of offended me . . . It's a pretty bold claim made by a major company CEO that a whole country's morals are predicated upon infidelity and lasciviousness.

3 years 15 weeks ago	Some scouts/coaches like to	Some scouts/coaches like to trust their own times instead of the electronically timed 40's. Who knows why? I guess it's just because that people timed 40's by hand before the advent of electronic timing, and people used to compare stopwatches with each other at the finish. I think there's an element of human error in the electronic timing as well, as the timer starts when when the runner chooses to start and not on a gun. This means that the person who starts the timer is also limited by his reaction time.

3 years 15 weeks ago	FIFA has Pro Evolution to	FIFA has Pro Evolution to compete with it, and PES is often the superior game. FIFA has just had a lot of pro club licenses for the past couple years. NCAA has nothing to put the proverbial fire under its ass in order to keep it cutting edge. I love NCAA, and will probably buy it again thing year, but sometimes it bugs me how lazy an effort NCAA seems like.
3 years 15 weeks ago	Not a real football player	Did anyone see Eisen and Mayock arguing about Boston College and Michigan? Eisen said that Michigan had 3 players invited, which was one more than BC, but Mayock asserted that Zoltan "wasn't really a football player" Although he offers excellent draft analysis, I fully expect Zoltan to strike him down after the combine.
