To be fair, it is an anger-inducing headline if you care about the dignity of others, even if they're Michigan State fans and alumni.

Emphasis on how he feels about the words that he writes.

Impossible to read in all caps.

Can someone explain the first few comments about Brain? I didn't understand the jokes, now I feel shame.

What the other guy said, and there's also lots and lots of butthurt from people who dislike Michigan amongst the regular commenters.
October 31st, 2016 at 5:44 PM ^
There are several Michigan fans there who find this site, and its proprietor obnoxious. There are a few regular commenters there who were banned here. I don't know the reasons behind it, but I suspect that plays a role in how this site is perceived.
Whatever, man. I like this place. I like EDSBS too, but its commenters are often as obnoxious as those at any other place, including here.

I read this with my wife. We both lol'd. Nice share.

I'm imaging you and your wife in pajamas reading it aloud in bed while putting down your large hardcover political non-fiction books. Perhaps you've got a monocle.
Sorry can't help it, that's how I just envisioned you.

Beautiful.
Just beautiful.

It's not like they changed who they are the past 8 years. We should expect this by now.

HH Holmes - or "Homie," as his friends called him - killed more people before breakfast than Teddy did in two decades. And he did it at a fair, which is like saying, "oh yeah, well fuck your fun diversion from reality. Here is some horrifying death, bitches."

I wouldn't call EDSBS journalism. That would be like calling Seth Rogen an actor.

would be to invite some people into his office but then fake being called away for a bit so they're stuck waiting for him. Meanwhile on his desk there's Ted Kaczynski's manifesto with passages underlined and highlighted. Let's face it, you'd be unsettled, especially if he walked in on you looking at it, so you know he knows you know.

from the State News folks, and they (dead serious) told him it is available online (or that he can sign up for the emailed-newsletter version or somesuch nonsense)... #brilliant
honestly, Spencer and Brian (and staff) are some of the absolute best writers in the college football space, going back to way back in the day when edsbs was still independent and before our beloved mgoblog had up/downvoting... he's a realist re: Florida and football generally in the same way many on this site are, and his perspective is always welcome around these parts as far as I'm concerned, esp. when he throws shade at ND in the midst of a full piece crushing sparty for such a supreme example of playing themselves... i mean, how can you not love this:
