If you're paranoid about what others know about you get a VPN, to me it doesn't matter, yeah Internet sites collect my data and try to sell me stuff or try to trick me with news compelling to my interests, but all that's it is publicity and I know it, they're providing me with a service for free like the news, the weather forecast or information about the latest 5 star on Michigan's radar so I don't mind them trying to sell me stuff, they still need my last word for me to spend a cent on their ads. If i were spending my days browsing sites with doubious cookie polices and spyware i'd consider using a Virtual Machine and a few proxy sites/VPN, but if the site is not regulated it is most likely because their activity is somewhat illegal and that's the risk we all take when we decide to take a midnight stroll through a dark alley in the shadiest part of town.
I remember him playing in 2020 and he sucked, he gave Mc Namara a chance to get the starting role and Cade took it, moving the chains along. I hope Milton whatever he earns but i don't miss his horrible inaccurate passes, a strong arm is not all a QB needs to succed.
I would have to name Gemon Green, he's had flashes and our number one CB would be DJ Turner followed by Will Johnson, but I think Green has the size and experience to be a solid second cornerback, after him I would say someone else in the secondary or linebacker like Kolesar or Mullings
I agree, however, many schools will not be interested being on a level playing field installing a salary cap, what bonus can a school in Tuscaloosa or South Bend could offer compared to a school in L.A. or Chicago?
I'm afraid we'll end up with a complicated and fallible system like the UEFA Economic Fair Play where each team will be able to spend a percentage of their revenue plus money from donors on their players with a minimum guaranteed for 1st string players or a "franchise" tagged player. Problem with that is shady book keeping and the infinite amount of loopholes that are going to be exploited, as long as the NCAA never uses its teeth I don't see a point on placing any rule whatsoever.
Should be a convincing win, Michigan is better in every category except one: Turnover margin
Iowa always seems to scavenge turnovers, their DBs often are not noticed by opposing QBs somehow and they mind control offensive players to just fumble rutine balls the defense doesn't even force.
Just avoid losing the ball and it won't be close, -1 or -2 margin and I still think M wins.
Undercover bus schedule inspector, I had to take random buses and report if they were on time in their routes, I just had to move around the city taking different buses...
That's what happens when you get ahead early and decide to call it a day, great save by Pitchford but the Italians are just all over the place, I believe Italy has all the momentum and England was banking on the clean sheet, they have not had the most demanding path and have not been in a situation like this in the tournament.
It sounds OK but seems complicated, as an office worker I might point that indeed much of the time we spent at the office is meaningless preparing coffee and reading news is not essential for work but business hours are a problem when you need to work with other people from other companies and when the workload is heavy we spend much more time trying to keep up and be on top off all the work we have upon us. I work 37 and a half hours a week but we easily spend 50 to 60 hours a week when it's necessary. I'd say leave when you're free to do so but stay when needed to, it's a fair compromise
Good for him, I know that players leaving early stings for us fans but that's what makes Michigan so appealing, Green Warren said it earlier today, he saw our track record putting players on the league and wants to be a draft pick. I sure would like to have players leaving with championships but is part of the deal, big time talent wants to play in the NFL and if we're hoping to get big talent we do what we can to put them there and have more big talent realizing we can make they dreams happen, it only consolidates us as an NFL springboard for talented guys.
42-15 harbaughs record vs 44-42 between RR and Hoke? Yeah he might not be Saban but Harbaugh has been a good not excellent coach yet.... It baffles me how some people are in general, we all expect more but we seem to be anxious to throw away all the progress as of it was easy to win championships....
I'm just saying, it's dumb to vote for a guy who isn't even a member of the six kingdoms he's getting to be king of, maybe they were dubbed by voting before the north took itself out of the kingdom, but by that time it's dumb that they all are OK with the north just northxiting the realm, if anything, Dorne and The Iron Islands at least should have done the same and gtfo.
Jon was russed big time, he could have easily killed Dany without him or she knowing he was a Targaryen with promises from Varys and Tyrion that he would be a better king and was the rightful heir, he was already sleeping with her, If Bran told him the truth just to make him look like he was seeking power for himself after killing Dany they did not made their point across with Bran just saying, sorry and thanks, and not showing he had planned anything of the sort.
It doesn't make sense that Drogon spared him, that's what the dance of the dragons was all about and after drogon left its just unbelievable that the unsullied captured him and didn't kill him on the spot, like they killed the lannister soldiers before. And yes the maesters can't father kids, Pycelle was a horny maester but also many on the nights watch, not that it was really enforced although they did stress to Jon that he was going back to the wall and he couldn't keep his titles nor have kids, that seems like a double standard.
It's not that I wanted a Disney story but I for sure wanted the character arcs to be completed and all the backstory to mean something. To me it feels like they just tossed to the garbage all the planing and positioning of the characters just to be unpredictable and leave us all scratching our heads.
It was just too stupid... Why would the north get to have not one but two votes and a candidate for good measure to pick the king if they're not part of the kingdom? Why send Jon to the wall which is a part of the North and it doesn't belong to the six kingdoms now? Why the unsullied have a say on what to do with Jon if they're not staying? Can't just Jon come back to be free once the unsullied sail away? Why Tyrion promised the reach to the unsullied after having promised (and delivered) the reach to Bronn? Why is Sam Grand Maester when he didn't finish his studies and the maesters take a celibacy vote like the night's watch? Wasn't he going to have a kid?
Why did Jon tell everyone that he killed Dany when there was no witnesses, body or dragon? He's just that stupid or it was a plot by Bran who can see everything and wanted to be king?
What was the point of Jon being a Targaryen?
I have so many more gripes about it but what's the point? Sigh...

Playing without that rule would be totally different, it's like football without having your recievers at the line of scrimmage or behind it, you would see a receiver deep on every play and a safety or two always back there playing catch all day long, the purpose of designing plays is to be able to get behind the defenders (in soccer too, you can time your breaks and runs and a well placed deep ball is somewhat similar to a deep pass in football) if you allow the players to hang out all day behind the defense it becomes a volleyball match
Well I didn't know it had passed this long but I remember when I found this blog now, It was during the exhausting 2008 season, prior to that I used to check Mlive! =S and it was filled with trolls and crass people, Spartinas and Suckeyes were common words there, if you are tired of people here being insuferable after this season then you can imagine how bad was that during the 2008 season, then I found this blog and it was like heaven, finally a place where my mother woulnd't be brought into the conversation for pointing out that we had a lot of freshmen and no QB and that there was no talente left on the team for Rich Rod... I've never gone back to those kind of forums and If things get a little to rowdy here actions are taken and I can just as easy avoid reading some of the threads. I think it was this, touch the banner and Varsity blog the blogs that I started to enjoy more. There was a blog by MgoRecruit or something of the like that I enjoyed too, it was run by a guy from England IIRC but it too disappeared just like Varsity Blue, oh well, that reminds me how I apreciate this blog.
I meant something with a 1080 that will be better than the Xbox one x out of the box, but a 1050ti or a 1060 are more powerful than an Xbox one or a ps4, is just that for the price the Xbox one x is better, if you count out the whole having a pc that can run word and all that
If it were for you I'd say wait for the Xbox one x, or buy a nice pc if you're willing to spend at least 1500 dollars but for a kid as young the switch is the answer, I like to use my consoles for streaming content and the like and the switch sucks at that plus the games are mostly targeted at youngsters so he'll love it.
Neoplant and jiffybar.... well.... not really, I used to love using Chrome but over time it has become more of a resource hog. And my computer isn't getting any newer so I switched to Firefox about a year ago after scripts and add ons started to slow down my computer. I like Firefox, I intend to go back to Chrome with the new PC i'm planning on building, since an ssd and 16GB of RAM ought run it smoothly but for a POS 2GB Ram dual core old computer my advice is to use FIrefox or something lighter.
Just don't tweet, I get that many of you feel like you're colaborating and have something positive to contribute, but your help is not needed. It's like when somebody has an accident or collapses on the street, yeah, it's good that you don't want to kick them or stomp them, but even if you want to help the best thing to do is call the emergency services and let them handle the situation. Many times peoples' intentions are good but they don't know what they're doing and end up worsening the situation. To me its kind of selfish to try to be the hero and step in just for glory.
Driven, once I drove a 1971 Ford Pick Up truck with a California bed, my uncle bought it and lasted all of a week before returning it, it was a refurbished wrecked truck and the body was full of dents and repaired with automotive epoxy paste, 1% steel 99% some sort of resin, looked nice though, but the paint was what was holding it together. The oldest one I actually used for a while was a 1982 Silverado Pick Up with extra long bed and extended cabin. It was a beast I remember we could haul 700 galons of water or 3 tons of bricks on it no problem.
The first car I drove was a 95' chevrolet cavalier but I only drove it for like 500 feet when my dad said it was enough, I was like 11 years old.
The first vehicle I drove in traffic and eventually my errand vehicle (before I started taking it to highschool) was a 99' F150, I started driving with manual transmissions. I remember ramming a VW beetle with the truck while reversing, stealing the truck for a joyride....
I decided to do that too about 2 years ago, I decided to start using a motorcycle as my car was giving me trouble and to me it didn't make sense to keep fixing the car when usually I was by myself in it and I had a lot of trouble finding parking spaces for my constant errands downtown. I never had a motorcycle and I remembered feeling really insecure when I had the chance to ride a 400 CC chopper bike that belonged to a friend as I'm not that big either at 5'9 and 150 lbs so I decided to buy something smaller. I bought a Bajaj Pulsar 220, As it's smallish, I have been riding the thing since then, sometimes I use the car for grocery shopping and carpooling but as for everything else I use the bike and it's been real fun. First thing I did when I got on it was crashing against the wall inside the garage as I wasn't too familiar with turning and hitting the gas at the same time, but after a week or so I started to feel real comfortable and now it comes as second nature. I still use the car to go out of town though as the 220 CC motor isn't enough to make me feel safe if I have to get on the highway.
I cut my hair myself, I bought a machine to cut my dog's hair but he's afraid of it so I decided to use it myself. I just grab the #2 brush and take out the sides and then just kinda trim the top so it looks even. I don't know if I should feel good about saving 5 years worth of haircuts or if I look like a cheap bastard. Anyways nobody has ever said anything to me, unless I kind of go a little crazy and give myself a mohawk.
Poor damn Speight, he is today's John Navarre to the fan base. I'm not saying he is specially good or anything but everyone seems to want him gone or benched eyeing every backup QB not named Alex or Shane.... Ps, he won't be drafted, as of now I don't think he'll leave the team until he exhaust his eligibility.
As a fan from another country I feel sad I couldn't help out but it does really bring a tear to my eye to see all the support you guys got. I'd like to chip in with at least a Go Blue and an recognition to this board, guys I couldn't attend the University of Michigan but I'm impressed, you guys bring out the best of humanity and fraternity and I couldn't be proudest of cheering for this team.

I'd submit Ronnie Bell's one handed catch against WMU that was not only not important but didn´t even count because the refs are blind.

We haven't had a 12 win season since 1997, so I suppose we'd be heading to our 23rd coach if you were the AD.... That seems reasonable...
So don't lose the turnover battle by 5 and we'll be in it until the last possession at least? I think I can handle that
