If I never hear anyone use the term "generational" again I will be a very happy man.

Hot chocolate is $10.  I would be surprised if beer was any lower than $15 or even $20.

It really is.  The whole Donovan Edwards twitter stuff wasn't even a year ago.

The difference is probably that she is Queen Consort (like Camila) and not an outright queen.

Every time he has a bogey, he responds with a birdie.  Putting has been phenomenal.  Harman is just playing smart, smart golf.

That is definitely one of my saddest non-Michigan sports moments when he lost.

Nothing this summer but hoping to see U2 in Las Vegas this fall!

All of it but the cost part is possible

Eh this is a massive…

Eh this is a massive overstatement.  The US has many world-class airports (DTW, ATL, SLC), many just fine airports (most second-tier airports fall here as would JFK), and some pretty bad airports (ORD, EWR).

There are plenty of nice airports around the world in developed countries (OSL, ICN, BRU) but there are lots of just fine ones (CDG, SYD, SCL) and some not great ones (LHR, LIS, BOD).

And having been to actual third-world airports, there is no comparison between some of the gross ones (CAI is just awful) and the worst in the US.

They changed it.  Earlier in the day they were only showing total score and round score, but not the holes played.

Out of nowhere Phil ends at eight under.  It seems Rahm will likely hold on to the win, but a pretty amazing Sunday for him.

Also very oddly, the leaderboard graphic doesn't show the hole each player is on.  Anyone know why this is?  I don't think I've ever seen that before when watching golf.

In general Minny fans are nice, but Minny hockey fans (especially those on message boards) are like RCMB meets 11 Warriors.  Just annoying, pretentious twats.

The two Portillo bank goals are like JJ's two pic sixes.  Just tough to come back from that.

That's how I feel about Denver for hockey.  Who actually goes there?

Our 2013, 2014, 2017, and 2018 teams are all better than this UCONN team.  What a lucky program they are.

Could Michigan get a 5 seed…

Could Michigan get a 5 seed in the Championship Game just once?  Somehow UCONN has gotten a 1 seed, 3 seed, 8 seed, 8 seed, and 5 seed in its five championship game appearances.

 

Meanwhile we have faced one 3 seed (Seton Hall) and six 1 seeds, four of which were the #1 overall seed.

I had her for BCOM a few years back at Ross. She was a bit kooky then but nothing like this - I don't think we had any required coursepack let alone her subscription service. Sad to see that she went far off the deep end in the past 5+ years.

Did Rihanna even sing? Whole thing was lip synced!

Lost to Texas in 5 sets in…

Lost to Texas in 5 sets in the semis also.  Texas went on to dominate in the championship.  Michigan was on fire that tournament and truly came close to winning it all, but there's been no success since then.  What about the Kentucky coach?  They won it all a couple years ago.  I would have to imagine Michigan could top whatever their paying.

Final 1L final tomorrow.  Been watching highlights from this season to held provide motivation.

Seems like a great hire.  Baker has consistently been the most liked governor in the country with over a 70% approval rating.  And that's as a Republican in a blue state.  I'm not getting in the politics of anything, but I think he is clearly a smart, well-liked guy with extensive public and private sector experience who can build consensus amongst opposing groups.

Even if he were in the whole time, USC couldn't stop Utah's offense.

Washington might be capable of beating USC, but sadly they aren't playing them.  Utah is USC's opponent this week.

Unbelievably stupid tackle there to give Bale a penalty kick.  Feels like 2016 OSU.  Just handing away a win.

It can only happen after a made basket, but yes it is legal.

This is not ABC's best production.  Lack of meaningful reviews, so many commercials.  RGIII has some funny comments, but overall the analysis and commentary have been terrible.  Neither commentator even mentioned the missed roughing the kicker earlier in the day.

Wow ND bailed out by a really weak targeting call on 3rd down.

That is not true at all.  Gus Johnson is terrible, and people here and all over the internet regularly criticize his commentating.

Afternoon Delight doesn't have drinks, but it has the best breakfast food in Ann Arbor.  Pretty reasonable prices too.

As much as I would rather…

As much as I would rather William be king than Charles, I do want Charles to be king for a little while so William and Kate can raise their kids somewhat normally.  I have to think part of the reason Charles and Andrew have had so many issues is that Elizabeth just didn't have the time to be a normal mom.

He means they literally gave instructions.  It was silly.

I will add that I have met…

I will add that I have met Coach Leonardi a couple times, and both times he has been incredibly friendly.  Before coaching at UM, he was the head coach at Cal State Northridge, and for part of his tenure there he was also a high school teacher.  He has a ponytail and has a very fitting Cali surfer vibe to him.  Certainly seems like a good guy - and a great fit for recruiting in CA - on the surface.

Not only is there an OSU…

Not only is there an OSU Women's hockey team but they just won the National Championship.  So OSU has a hockey national championship more recently that Michigan.  Bleh.

To be fair though, Lake…

To be fair though, Lake State (and Northern Michigan and Michigan Tech and MSU) were largely powerhouses and won their national championships when Michigan was down.  From 1970-1994, Tech won it in 75, Northern won it in 91, LSSU won it in 88, 92, and 94 (which is absolutely crazy), and MSU won it in 86.  Red started to bring Michigan back in the early 90s, but Michigan was downright awful for a big chunk there.

For the first time since…

For the first time since 1951, Michigan does not stand alone the standings of most NCAA titles.  After beating BC in 98, Michigan had nine and North Dakota trailed with 7.  Denver had five at the time, but they have won 4 in the past 18 years. Boo.

It looked like it took a long time for the Mankato player to leave the box on that second goal.

ESPN3 has it in Spanish if anyone wants.  Anyone with a cable login should be able to watch.  Hoping to hear a nice "Goooooolllllll" for the good guys.

Did anyone else get a preview for "Chad" instead of the post-game ceremony and One Shining Moment?

Realistically it has to be…

Realistically it has to be between Juwan and Nate Oats at Alabama.  Oats is also in his second year and has Alabama (who can remember them ever being good at basketball?!) at #8 in the country.  Bama was unranked at the start of the year and picked to finish in the middle of the SEC but instead has dominated the conference and won the SEC for the first time in 19 years.  Both coaches have a very similar story to be honest.  Michigan is certainly the higher ranked team and plays in a much tougher conference, but Juwan inherited a well-oiled machine while Alabama has been irrelevant for decades.  Of course I think Juwan should win, but Oats has a very compelling case also.  Of course, after last night's love affair, we all know who Dickie V thinks should win...

For passwords I devised a system to create a unique, strong password for every site based on rules and knowledge than only I would know.  I considered using a password manager but preferred to actually know all my passwords personally.

How do I rig it?  Just through the settings, or do I need to install an add-on?
