Damn, what happened to George Floyd was wrong, but we're actually going to deify him to this extent? Who gets to decide if something is offensive enough to kick a student out of school?
Lol. That's one way of completely avoiding the political suicide that it would be for a Democratic governor to tell the protesters to stop in favor of social distancing
I think it's also important to keep in mind that the evidence and recommendations are changing literally day to day. Many hospital systems will continue to do what is effective for their patients until large scale trials can be conducted or a definitive answer is reached.
For example, there have been studies out of China and WHO recommendations that say high dose steroids do not help, but two major health systems in SE michigan have had success with solumedrol early in the disease process. At least one of these two health systems is still using plaquenil and azithromycin because it has worked for them.
Price will also be a consideration with these drugs. Plaquenil runs about $20-40 for 60 tablets. Actemra is about $600 for the 4mL and an obscene $1600 or so if you're going to be paying full price.
If Actemra does end up being a superior enough treatment to be a first line treatment, there is going to be a need for someone or some entity to pony up and pay for it. But that's above my pay grade.
IDK about the entirety of your comment since I'm still new to the field, but can confirm that Detroit area hospitals are using the Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine)/Azithromycin combo in many patients, especially in ICU setting.
So? Look up any large law firm on Wikipedia and look at their notable cases. If we were to boycott any with shitty characters, there wouldn't be any left.
There's a reason why his ER bills are through the roof. They'll charge you out the ass for showing up over and over and making them run bullshit tests on a condition that is completely psychological. Which is where the whole GoFundMe thing doesn't make sense. The management of a depressive disorder doesn't come close the charges accrued by the pursuit of an official CFS/ME diagnosis. The money donated is basically thrown away.
Exactly. It's like none of these guys have lived in South Quad. Maybe the walk ons actually go to class but you'd have to be delusional to think academics actually matter to a vast majority of the team. Take any bullshit history 101 class and you'll see half the football team enrolled and only attend class when the team managers roll about to check in on them. Hell, I remember living next to a few players who had their desks taken away from their rooms to fit larger beds.
These players are not even close to attending the same classes as a regular student at Michigan. About half of them are 'undecided' or 'general studies' which might as well be a 'football player' degree. Even those with legit pursuits basically have tutors and instructors who hand hold them through school.
Don't delude yourself into thinking Michigan's academic reputation extends to the football team. If Michigan's academic rigors were applied to the team, half of them would be kicked out of school tomorrow.
Nothing like spending 12 hrs a day treating immunocompromised or old/young patients all day just to come on here to read how the flu shot is a "grand government and corporation experiment" or listen to the guy with barely any expertise try to tell you about all the "chemicals" the big bad doctors are injecting you with.
It's frankly mind blowing that we live in such a prosperous time that people can choose to be intentionally ignorant about things that actually save lives.
Maybe polio and the various pandemics of the past really do need to make a comeback so that these idiots will be smacked in the face by reality of the subject they seem to think they know so much about.
Might as well just stop seeing doctors all together if, as a group, we're such untrustworthy people.
Good Lord. Even this place is infested by these anti vaxx idiots. Thanks for displaying some fundamental misunderstanding of science. "I got the flu after the shot" "fOrMaLdEhYdE and mErCuRy".
Good lord. Not being able to fire Greg Roman was one of the bigger friction points between Harbaugh and the 49ers brass/fans. Now we're bringing him here? I'm getting an uneasy feeling that this is just more of the same, and we'll be having this same conversation in 2 years.
What's the process even like? Flip through the contacts on his phone and realize an old NFL friend is still floundering as an assistant to his brother?
Even Alabama had the willingness to after the Patriots' TE coach instead of hiring some failed retread from the NFL ranks.
Dear lord. I hope our players show a bit more resiliency in the face of adversity than some of you give them credit for. I would hope Peters wouldn't high tail it out if he had a new person to compete with.
Also, how has 100yds/gm against mediocre teams given all of you the confidence that Peters is the guy and that we should make all team decisions according to what will keep him here no matter what?
Without explicitly revealing who he is, I can tell you his dad is a real estate developer in NYC who is himself fighting battles against his tenants for mistreating them. Apple does not fall far from the tree. I highly doubt this kid will face any consequences. Even socially.
Screw that. Any student that wants to buy tickets should be able to. It is still the University of Michigan football team and they are University of Michigan students.
I think people don't understand how hard it is for an emerging team to win the world cup. Only 8 different teams have won it in 19 matches. Teams like France, England and Spain only have one. Netherlands, way better than the US teams, have none.
Yeah but why? It's a great way to honor the people who give back to this university.
The Frankels got their name on a 100 year old part of the health system. Ross has his name on the business school. Nichols arb, Kellogg center etc. Multiple professorships which existed almost as long as the university are now endowed in the names of people who graduated maybe 50 years ago.
Oh but it's football. I forgot. We're still hitched on 'tradition'. Forget the fact that it might be beneficial for us to have millions rolling in. For the sake of being different, michigan fans would rather shoot themselves and the AD in the foot
If it's just you or maybe just you and one more person, you should be able to scalp some tickets easily on game day or a few days before on like stubhub. It will probably be easier this year too.
And good on you for keeping the faith in Michigan Football. Better fan than I am, i suppose.
This is pathetic. Our offensive coordinator who coached this kid for 3 years can't bring him in even with our lack of Oline. This program is in the dumps. Someone please convince me otherwise.
There are many, many things about Michigan that are stuck in the past. I know tradition is what makes Michigan, Michigan. Still, it seems like everyone raises hell with any change that doesn't fit the status quo of the 1940s. It's hard to be progressive when everything about a program, including the fans, is based upon the history of the program.
It might be sincere in some cases, however, this soccer game is a huge plus. Criticism of Dave Brandon obviously is warranted in some cases but uncalled for and annoying everytime the name is mentioned.
He was in one my classes. For most of the 2013 football season, he had a broken thumb/wrist. So I doubt he got much practice time to establish himself in anyway.
Jesus christ, I know that most of us don't understand the implications of this or even how it works, but damn... this comment section looks more like YahooNews or CSM.
They did ask us a few months ago through an email. They probably didn't like the answer since the majority basically went on a tirade against general admission.
The other problem is the prices vs quality of games. I'm fine with paying 250+ for football tickets, but not for just Akron and app state. A large fraction of my friends are no longer buying tickets for next year. Me included.
I'd be lying if the notion of Harbaugh coaching Michigan didn't make me excited. We all know he made comments about Michigan atheletes' academic problems, but from what I've seen at this school, he did not lie. Therefore, I do not hold it against him.

It's depression with a fancy name for those that REALLY want a diagnosis. File it away with chronic lyme disease and chronic babesiosis.
But the name does get you $100,000 while depression gets you recommendations for a therapist.
There's a reason "CFS/ME/SEID" isn't considered a real, medically accepted condition. But hey, it's not my money.

if the day ever comes when the fucking Pistons steal Beilein away, I would root for the Pistons to crash and burn for the rest of eternity

Lmao can we hire Moorhead?
lol @ Cody White and Hunter Rison being better than all of our "AMAZING WR CLASS"
Jesus Christ, he was just a man, not a fucking god. Just look at the way you guys talk about him. His opinion on this matter is irrelevant.
Jesus Christ HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Even the social justice champions at Michigan currently haven't jumped on this one. Congrats OP!
Were you also the driving force behind trying to change "You suck!" to "Hoke Smash!" a few years back? Sounds like something you'd do.
Oh my fucking god. You guys are ridiculous. We just endured years upon years of adidas bitching and now this.
It's Tshirts and hoodies guys. The only logo that matters is the block M in front.
Without explicitly revealing who he is, I can tell you his dad is a real estate developer in NYC who is himself fighting battles against his tenants for mistreating them. Apple does not fall far from the tree. I highly doubt this kid will face any consequences. Even socially.
I love the close up one on Harbaugh
Lol. Dave Brandon attended the cheerleaders' practice today and has been visiting all the different sports this week... now we know why.
What a farce.
Lol... insulting the students? Too funny.
Screw that. Any student that wants to buy tickets should be able to. It is still the University of Michigan football team and they are University of Michigan students.
What's with the filtering on all these pictures?

Yeah? When's the last time you donated $3 million anonymously? Most people like recognition for their work.
MIchigan graduate not knowing the significance of Maya Angelou... sad.
Jesus. Y'all are some sadistic people. It's almost like everyone is rooting for the 100k streak to end, the team to suck next year etc.
If it's just you or maybe just you and one more person, you should be able to scalp some tickets easily on game day or a few days before on like stubhub. It will probably be easier this year too.

These are actually much better than the last three years. I might do the opposite of what I've been doing. Buy the shirt, and not buy the tickets.
It might be sincere in some cases, however, this soccer game is a huge plus. Criticism of Dave Brandon obviously is warranted in some cases but uncalled for and annoying everytime the name is mentioned.
This whole "OMG DAVE BRANDON IS DA WORST EVAR" schtick is getting so old on this blog.
He was in one my classes. For most of the 2013 football season, he had a broken thumb/wrist. So I doubt he got much practice time to establish himself in anyway.
I think our Oline might continue giving me anxiety this year :(

Unfair or not. rules are rules. Even if the court cases going on right now change things, he still did something that was illegal at the time.
Bang me like one of your french girls!
Thank you Coach Beilein! Thank you to all the players that worked to bring this program back!
