It sure doesn't, and it will be deleted soon.  It's the kind of post for which I wish we had the ability to subtract his points down below the required threshold for being able to post an OP.  Unfortunately, though, we mods don't have the button that would allow us to do so, and I'm not leaving his post on the board long enough for 7550 negvotes.  

Only his immediate apologies save him from having a couple weeks off the board.

(Edit: thought it over a bit more while out bicycling prior to sundown, and no, in most cases I wouldn't feel comfortable with a temporary ban for a really bad post such as that one.  

Let's instead say if you have initial doubts about a post you're considering making, maybe it's not a good idea after all.)

I think the board has already determined his fate. I saw this post, also other recent posts that have caught my eye, but he's never (to my knowledge) blatantly broken any board rules.

He's lost nearly 500 points over the last couple days.  The MGoBoard has spoken; Bolivia has a new visitor.

Yes and Genesis (Peter Gabriel era) forged their own path at roughly the same time as King Crimson.  But I otherwise totally agree, King Crimson absolutely belongs in the HOF .

Still a no from me on REO.  There's only one album of theirs that I really love (REO TWO), after that I found them to be a lot like the band Boston, too repetitive and never growing/evolving.  But hell yeah on Supertramp!

I've always found DMB to be…

I've always found DMB to be bland and boring.  I tried to figure out why their fans  were so devoted to them.  Maybe it's their live performances (I've never gone to one of their concerts) but I just can't get very excited about most of their studio stuff, to me, too much elevator or grocery store background music.

Strongly disagree agree with…

Strongly disagree agree with you, OP---Peter Frampton being inducted into the HOF yesterday was long overdue.  Frampton has long been one of my favorite guitarists due to his somewhat unique jazz-influenced playing style but he's also very capable when playing the blues too.  I just saw Frampton for the 5th time (first couple times were at Wings Stadium in K-zoo, back in the "Frampton Comes Alive!" days) about a month ago in Gary at the Hard Rock Cafe, also saw him at Meijer Gardens last summer. He's lost nearly all his hair and has a degenerative muscle disease that prevents him from standing up while performing, but he's lost nothing as an entertainer, singer, and guitarist.

Matter of fact, his old band Humble Pie should also be in the HOF, Steve Marriott and company have long been overlooked by the hall.

I agree with most of the others you listed except for probably Gerry Rafferty and REO Speedwagon.  Of that list, Tull, Winwood, ELP, Guess Who, and Grand Funk should be slam-dunks.

I'm watching the 1:30 am rebroadcast (yes it's 2:15 am and I should instead be sleeping) on FS1 right now.  

 I'll say this right now: don't sell Davis Warren short.   While he doesn't quite have JJ's arm strength (nobody on this team does), he seems to be able to make all the throws, he appeared to read the defense and go thru his progressions well, and he has excellent and consistent footwork. The rifle shot he made to Brady Prieskorn early in the game was a tight throw and a thing of beauty---he kept his poise in the face of a strong pass rush and delivered a strike.  We're all well aware by now of what he did in the 4th quarter Saturday to win the spring game. 

He's showing he's definitely got more arm talent than Cade had.  Remember, Davis Warren was a much sought-after 4* before his health problems derailed his senior season of high school.

I did see a couple fairly faint meteors earlier while outdoors for 15 minutes tonight.  But when the nearly full moon is so bright that it was difficult to even find the B1G Dipper, I'm lucky to have seen any at all.

That thread comes tonight during the FoxSports2 rebroadcast (8-10 pm) of Michigan's spring game.

But wait!  There's more!!

There's additional rebroadcasts (FS1, FS2, and BTN ---check your TV listngs!) at 1:30 am and 6 pm Monday, followed by one more Tuesday @ 3am.

Plenty of opportunities to share your thoughts, aftertoughts, overreactions, musings, paranoia, and hallucinations.  Grab your worry beads, everyone!

When Bo made the statement regarding his feelings on televised Michigan games, nearly all Michigan Stadium kickoffs were at 1pm. Only THE GAME was usually a 12 noon start.

P.S. for the many Rare Earth fans among us: this is the full length 21 minute jam "Get Ready" (not the 3 1/2 minute one they played on AM radio).  Enjoy!
