3 weeks 6 days ago	I'm not real big on the whole	I'm not real big on the whole Mac/PC debate and here's why. A lot of people form their opinion of PC's based on the mediocre $300-600 range of computers. They experience what they do with those and then form their opinion of PC's. Now Mac doesn't bother with that price range and only makes higher end computers that'll have much better componentry than your average PC. Thus people quickly see that this is better, as it should be, and go straight to saying that Mac>PC when in reality its more of a Mac=PC type thing in my opinion. Coming out of high school I bought a high end PC with a lot better componentry than I would have gotten on a similiarly priced Mac (Dell XPS). I love it and after 3 years of abuse in my backpack and falling off dorm beds its still going strong. I have friends with Macs that are also quite pleased with their product. However, most my friends that bought cheap computers have hated their experience and have already bought new ones. Basically you can't go wrong as long as you avoid the whole market of cheap computers. Those are the ones that people have the most problem with. Maybe see if you can mess around with some at the store, but definitely don't buy it there as others have said. Deals a plenty are to be found online.

Then this weekend I go ride bikes and race in Holland, MI on Sunday. Then back to the grind to get ready for my EEB 487 exam on Tuesday.

4 weeks 3 days ago	You're lucky. The first time	You're lucky. The first time I tried playing it was against a friend who was quite good. I think I lost something like 15-1. Haven't bothered trying to play a hockey game since.
4 weeks 3 days ago	And us students understand	And us students understand that too. Its just that we can't really do anything about it since the students in this thread are the students in that picture. We can't be responsible for getting everyone there on time. This is like the teacher getting mad at the A student for the other students doing poorly. The A student might be able to help a couple other kids out, but there is no way he can save the whole class.

4 weeks 3 days ago	No, students are mad becuase	No, students are mad becuase us rising seniors have had shit seats for 3 seasons, spent hundreds of dollars on tickets, thousands of dollars on tuition, and waited patiently for our turn to have good seats. And now its all for naught as any freshman now has equal opportunity to have the seats that we have waited for. That's why we're mad.
4 weeks 3 days ago	I hate these threads. It just	I hate these threads. It just turns into alumni bitching about "back in my day we didn't have this problem" and then blaming the students. Guess what, if a student is reading this blog then they probably aren't part of the problem. I haven't missed kickoff in 3 years so it gets old seeing everyone say how today's students don't care and whatnot. I'm not too upset about having to get there a little earlier. Now I just can't sleep in as long, which is how I spend my Saturday mornings. I'm just upset that I waited my time to get good seats and now I'm getting the shaft.

4 weeks 4 days ago	Ugh, why did they have to	Ugh, why did they have to wait until the year that I'm going to have 104 credits going into the fall semester to make it general admission. It's going to be an absolute blast to wait for like 5 hours plus to get decent seats for Notre Dame.
4 weeks 4 days ago	Thanks for the support!As	Thanks for the support! As far as ordering jerseys goes, the Club Sports Department is quite picky about who we sell our jerseys to due to licensing issues and whatnot, but I'll definitely try to let you guys know next time we do a jersey order. Hopefully we can work out a way to sell them to the public, or at least alumni as everyone wins as a result. You guys get to look awesome and we get a little donation to help our team function as cycling isn't exactly a cheap sport. Our newest kits shown below in both the standard and skinsuit(with leg warmers) variety during the Men's C Team Time Trial at Purdue (1st place) look a million times better than the poor excuse for a jersey that places such as the MDen sell.

I mean the goal tend, shit call on Burke, calling LeVert out of bounds were absolute shit too, but my god HE HAD 5 FOULS. But the NCAA got their feel good story of Ware so I guess that's what they were after.
