34 weeks 3 days ago I don't think Seth's issue is

I don't think Seth's issue is with running the I-form in itself, but rather running play action out of the I-form without establishing a run from it first.

1 year 6 weeks ago Re: think of the children

This has long been the case but now it matters because people have to backtrack on their lame justifications of the previous system.

Not to sound like an elitist, but thank Buddha the 'Saturday-only' fans are catching up here and making the current bowl traveshamockery less profitable. I understand the current bowl traditions, and I respect people that want to keep them around because they remind them of their younger years, but I'm unconvinced that they are the optimal way to crown a champion (which to me, should be the priority for something that calls itself a national championship.)

1 year 23 weeks ago I say this with respect for

I say this with respect for your opinion, but you and I have different definitions of subtle.  To me, subtle are things you might miss unless you're looking closely (eg., piping, or thin stripes at the edge of the sleeve.)   Broad stripes on the top of the shoulder pad?  No way to miss these, thus I consider them a significant jersey change (which I'll consider as long as 1) it's the away jersies, and 2) it happens exactly one time a year.)

1 year 24 weeks ago Sweet jesus.  Now he rips off

Sweet jesus.  Now he rips off Brian's play-off system.  Literally unbelievable.

1 year 24 weeks ago Effff Gary Danielson...

...and his rematch-rationalizing flip-floping ass.  That is all.

1 year 31 weeks ago Your thesis hopes Denard

Your thesis hopes Denard slides when he is caught.  Mine is simply that he is not caught.

He looke rocky untrained eye Robbie be following through on his throwing motion

2 years 15 weeks ago Undeserved praise irritates

Undeserved praise irritates the rationalist just as much as undeserved criticism.

2 years 16 weeks ago Posbangs are an endurance sport

Posbangs are an endurance sport; keep it going.

2 years 16 weeks ago Consider this

Consider this MGoBlog doing you a favor.

2 years 19 weeks ago How quickly you forget the

How quickly you forget the shredding accusations (which srsly?) or the buyout lawsuit (likely mandated by the university) or the 'athletes take easy classes' meme (again, srsly?  this surprises you?) or the grossly overestimated practice overages (CARA definition of stretching.)  Yeah, the media had nothing against RRod.

2 years 22 weeks ago After 10+ years of watching

After 10+ years of watching legal dramas on TV (which is in-fact recognized by some SEC bars) I can comfortably say it doesn't, but shouldn't the "and eventually getting dropped" extricate the University from any culpability?

 

/Pro-RRod

//First slash will probably get me downvotes.

2 years 27 weeks ago Don't leave a pile of exams

Don't leave a pile of exams in a box outside of your door.

Is this relatively new? I feel like this is how I retrieved most of my homework/exams.

2 years 27 weeks ago "clearly above his head"

clearly above his head

I watched the game on a low-quality internet stream, but his hand did not seem to be above his head to me.

2 years 27 weeks ago I don't remember exactly, but

I don't remember exactly, but I believe there was some luck calculations (ie., points vs. expected points @given field positions, TO margin, etc.) that BHGP shrugged off as nonsense.  Again, this is months ago and I'm not going to bother to find the articles, but I don't remember BHGP presenting anything other than an ad-hominem counterargument. 

2 years 28 weeks ago And Denard really isn't as

And Denard really isn't as fast as a cheetah.

Your non sequitur is a non sequitur. Not only is Denard (figuratively) as fast as a cheetah, but our d-backs are as young (figuratively) as veal.

Am I the only one who automatically added a "David Caruso removing his sunglasses" pause while reading your comment?

You have an amazingly optomistic view of that response.

who also suggests that if the "referines" give Michigan the game again IU should join the Big 12.

Careful what you wish for there buddy. If they want to give up their seat for ND or Texas, I'd gladly let them leave.

2 years 34 weeks ago I've started my own flag

I've started my own flag ritual this year which consists of taking the flag down from the nails above my television and hanging it on the outside of my patio fence.  Nothing glorious, but it's worked for four games this year.

2 years 34 weeks ago Not to be an ass, but did you

Not to be an ass, but did you watch the game?  I know Denard spoils us but Devin's running felt like slow-mo, though his passes were frickin' laser beams.  Tate came in and did his usual scramble magic but happened to have a couple of off or slow throws.

I'm not picking on either QB as I thought they both did an excellent job but to me at least, your descriptions are precisely backwards.

2 years 35 weeks ago Les Miles Syndrome:

Les Miles Syndrome:  Either your brass balls are too big to carry, or you lack the brains to know where you're going.

Glad Sparty decided to break this out on ND and not us; one more thing to cover in special teams practice.

2 years 35 weeks ago The beautiful part about this

The beautiful part about this game is someone has to lose.

2 years 37 weeks ago I'm firmly in the B) camp,

I'm firmly in the B) camp, even it means I'm cutting off my nose to spite my face.  Part of growing up around South Bend I guess.

2 years 38 weeks ago Three weeks of growth going

Three weeks of growth going on here.  The beard looks great (coworkers changed my cubicle nameplate to 'caveman') but the 'stache could be fuller/darker.  I suppose that was to be expected with a fair-skinned, redheaded father.

Viva la cheesecake.  It was crude, but a part of EDSBS I enjoyed.
