I live in portand so Im definately going with some UW friends to seattle to watch. woohhoo . no JJ/BC2 tho:(

You better find another lost…

You better find another lost cause next season too. Loved this segment. Every week I scroll down to "Saving Private Brian" segment and chuckle, even though i chuckled last week ... and the week before that. 

Pls continue this diary segment about the worst of B1G!

Nice writeup, this should be a diary entry!

But but but... What about…

But but but... What about popelando's weekly diary. It was the highlight of the week now thats Oppo watch is dead.

This is what i said in the…

This is what i said in the other thread too, its completely baffling that people keep using "stealing" as if its private speech. 

It's the deaf person equivalent of shouting.

The opponent radio calls are…

The opponent radio calls are my new favorite since last year. I think ive watched the OSU call like 20 times atleast.

 

edit - You are missing parkingod who has been doing it for a while too

Great read every week,…

Great read every week, thanks Pope. 

I am a bit disappointed in the lack of --- "Offensive" "Coordinator" "Brian" Ferentz

Deflategate was the funniest…

Deflategate was the funniest shit. We had physics professors on TV explaining PV=nRT to newscasters and talking heads

They really should stop…

They really should stop calling it sign "stealing". You cant talk loudly in public AND request privacy.

try printfriendly.com , worked for me.

You gave out like 10 stars…

You gave out like 10 stars out to Ohio State offense starters in 2021. I was so scared all game that they will go full NFL on us.

Boys, Bros, Bretheren. Lets…

Boys, Bros, Bretheren. Lets not argue. Lets imagine best case scenario. Tucker wins, gets paid some compensation moneys AND demands to get his jerb back. MSU loses face and cash and we keep winning games for another decade.

If JJ doesnt get to make out…

If JJ doesnt get to make out on the sideline by the 3rd quarter, the season is a failure, harbaugh should be fired and the terrorists really have won.

Wheel of time? really? One…

Wheel of time? really? One piece babyyy

rutgers forums have been screaming about this

I was thinking of going …

I was thinking of going "OTish" or "Kinda-OT", but since it's not directly related to ongoing events i just went with OT.

I agree with everything as…

I agree with everything as long as we promise never to say "law of averages" like Alex's game recap post. I was le triggered 

"it's just a law of averages…

"it's just a law of averages"  --> Please... there is no such thing. Data dictates average not other way round.

I think the post was…

I think the post was sufficiently clear in its intent. OP's relevant experience is worth paying attention to.

I think it could have done better in saying unequivocally that Mel is presumed INNOCENT until proven....wrong I guess (no crime was committed or even alleged). We don't know the details and colleges have a really bad reputation with these kind of cases nowadays. Lot of kangaroo court type shenanigans like Mel has hinted at in his statement.

MSU will fire him, he will sue and get 50mill+ back. Ishiba will pay it and everyone in MSU land will happily move on.

Good thing wealth taxes are …

Good thing wealth taxes are (most likely) constitutionally illegal. 

Yea, theres a lot of jumping…

Yea, theres a lot of jumping on the bandwagon against tuck here.

Why is it only Tuck who isnt professional? clearly Tracy also participated for weeks in this "inappropriate relationship" too

Could someone copy-paste it here, my work has suddenly decided that website is "newgroups/forums" and blocked it....Promise to give it a view @home

That was a killer line. Its gonna be quoted a lot in future.

I think the great writing…

I think the great writing has brought this place attention. Technical posts like FFFF, UFR are great but they never feel like out-n-out spreadsheeting. To each his own I suppose.

I'm all for nerding over…

I'm all for nerding over football but cumon man, lets not make football into spreadsheets.

That was a really good read,…

That was a really good read, thanks for sharing. 

Cant wait for some on-the-record statements in a year or so

Is this 5D chess, slippin in the slot reciever remark to mess with OSU's planning?

I have no idea either bro. I…

I have no idea either bro. I was just thinking how much a difference that compounding interest can make to lifelong earnings and financial security. Nowadays even graduating debt-free is a rarity. Took me ~4years to be fully pay off my UM debt.

I worry these kids are going "communications" degree and not really getting high paying jobs even with UM stamp.

How many go pro? like 5%? If they can earn 100k over 4years with some kind of NIL, they are atleast on solid footing. That's the real benefit of NIL. The vast majority of athletes who wont go pro but be ahead in the rat race, if only a little bit.

 

I dunno man, these kids…

I dunno man, these kids finally have a chance to earn life-changing money EARLY in their playing career. If someone offers them 100~200K at 18yo, id say absolutely take it. You can put that in S&P500 index fund and protect your future instead of graduating with 50k+ debt  (like me lol). Remember Jake Butt, you career can be over before you get any pro chances no matter how talented you are. Take that bag and protect your future imo.

Xmen seems like their last…

Xmen seems like their last best hope, but they have to cast it really well and have a good story planned out, possibly away from the current crop of MCU nobodies.

Everything post endgame has been terrible except sony spiderman and those were self-contained-ish.

They really need a good reset without all the diversity quota heroes who are totally uninspiring rn.

Yea i enjoyed it, better…

Yea i enjoyed it, better than anything since endgame. the sony spidermans are good too.

Gamora was useless in the film, they could have trimmed it a bit and kept most of the important beats.

I'm in the 2nd group. I took…

I'm in the 2nd group. I took a huge loan to finance my UM grad degree and upon graduation in 2011 and job start decided to forgo big purchases (still loved comfortably in a 1b1b appt).

Managed to save and pay off in 4 years. But I guess I'm an idiot, shoulda just bought a house and let uncle sam pay my debts.

 

Yeaaa.. I dont know man, any…

Yeaaa.. I dont know man, any time you want to deny willing travelling fans access, it feels wrong. But, they committed fraud for the discount so thats fair.

I think the best solution would have been to offer them full-rate option. I'm sure they would have taken it. You could even have contacted the actual B&G club of champaign to make sure they dont want some of that allocation first.

I think in general, we should encourage big travelling student sections. Maybe Iowa dont want 200 strong illini embarrasing them on TV so they used the local charity organisation as a prop.

Dont let other posters stop you Elbel, they got the mondays, we love you for doing the OFAATs

I remember watching a Lionel Messi vs Arsenal game way back when he scored 4 and the announcer kept going "SUPER HATTRICK".

Awesome stuff as always Mr Elbel. Thanks for this.

Having a hard time between Edwards pinball run vs the absolute rope that JJ threw to Ronnie.

The offense exploited what they showed but...Mikey's PBU was absolutely tone setting. Thats the play that broke their will. It must win.

Thats so weird, ive never met a single person who i work with who hasnt done the match minimum.

LOL JJ doing the queen wave, OFAAT better include that one.

Jon jansen had a great quote in this week's Inside Michigan Football. This could be viewed as a potential targeting call....

Do we even need to vote for this one, there is only one correct answer and we all know it

ill never forget stauskas cold 3 at the end of the half and the student section jazz hands trying to bewitch him.

If you're only signing up for one game..

You could just type into utube michigan vs rutgers at game time and theres a couple live channels here or there that are, um, rebroadcasting it live.
