I've always been a black jersey guy for the Lions, it pops well with our blue and silver.

I didn't realize ESPN had been canceled lol

All our signature wins were …

All our signature wins were (relatively) low scoring this year, so in honor of the end of the Harbaugh era I'll donate the single largest dollar amount possible from a Michigan game during his tenure: $78.00 (2016 Rutger)

Words are just things,…

Words are just things, friend.

No one has yet actually…

No one has yet actually presented another side of Don Canham's relationship to women or victims of sexual assault. Just little aphorisms about how we shouldn't be mean to others. You're free to make the case on the merits.

okay, next time ill suck up…

okay, next time ill suck up to you <3

I absolutely would tell you…

I absolutely would tell you to shut the fuck up to your face, and I hope to one day have the opportunity to do so.

Lmao this is an article…

Lmao this is an article about Canham being aggressively sexist and using his power to enforce that sexism on the university for decades, setting Michigan women's sports back 10+ years. This is a guy who is still publicly venerated by the university. But yes, we should focus on being nice to him because he's dead.

Sure! The mewling both-sides…

Sure! The mewling both-sides-ism of the response angered me. If you want to defend Don Canham and his positive qualities then go for it. But just saying "its rude to say that a guy beloved by the university was a piece of shit" is not an argument, and critiquing vulgarity for critiques sake on a message board is silly.

Read the article and read about Robert Anderson then tell me that Don Canham was anything other than inveterate piece of shit. If it makes you feel better, nothing you or I or anyone else can say ever has the possibility of hurting him, because he's dead.

You're free to expound on…

You're free to expound on his virtues. What was your favorite part of the article?

But sanctimony doesn't help…

But sanctimony doesn't help.

Then shut the fuck up

 

Actually though yeah let's talk about how the dude who ignored literal thousands of male athletes being sexually assaulted and also (if you read the article) fought tooth and nail against the existence of women's sports was anything other than a stain on the university. What was he good for exactly? That he was chummy with Bo Schembechler? That he hated women? What was it?

Jesus dude, grow up.

I'm glad you're dead Don,…

I'm glad you're dead Don, you rape-ignoring fuckwad.

I like to think of it as…

I like to think of it as porn appreciation, thank you very much

Roughly what ranking do we…

Roughly what ranking do we need to secure an at large bid? Or do we have to win the BTT like last year?

That'd be ideal. Renovated…

That'd be ideal. Renovated arena/facilities that can host both Michigan women's hockey and a PWHL team. The main problem getting a team is venue - LCA is a little big and frankly might not have the capacity to handle a *third* professional sport happening in the same timeframe. Interest certainly isn't an issue: Detroit set the record for women's hockey attendance during the one off game here.

Oh come on. Harbs would…

Oh come on. Harbs would often mess with reporters and give vague and roundabout answers, or just simply refuse to answer at all and ditch the interview to have a player talk.

I'm gonna be honest I didn't…

I'm gonna be honest I didn't know what this was but after some googling holy shit this seems great. The application fee structure alone is fascinating.

I had Kentucky in my elite 8…

I had Kentucky in my elite 8 and Auburn in my final 4. That's what I get for trusting the SEC.

I also have Kansas beating Purdue cus i picked it before their guard got hurt, but fuck it shooters shoot.

I've been a Shaka hater…

I've been a Shaka hater since Trey Burke tore him apart a decade ago.

Absolutely fucking not Chris…

Absolutely fucking not Chris Collins. We're not Northwestern, we have substantially more recruiting ability. Michigan football has no problem getting valuable transfers in to pass admissions. There's plenty of kids who get decent enough grades. We just need a coach who's not too inept to spend tons of recruiting capital convincing players to transfer without checking if they, like, go to classes or not.

I think it's the…

I think it's the characterization of Christians as "heroes" that gives the game away.

Jason Kirk of The Shutdown…

Jason Kirk of The Shutdown Fullcast wrote a book called "Hell is a World Without You" about being raised evangelical. I haven't finished it yet but it's fantastic, both laugh-out-loud funny and so brutal that it made me cry. Highly recommend.

If we face Ohio State in the…

If we face Ohio State in the CFP that is going to be either the best or the worst day of my life, full stop.

Was he 240 pounds in high school?

Any chance of moving up…

Any chance of moving up enough in the pairwise if we sweep next week? Or do we have to win the BTT to get in?

A person only does that if…

A person only does that if it's part of God's plan, though, right?

Andy Reid is also 10 years…

Andy Reid is also 10 years older than Belichick was at this time in Brady's career. I guess I'd rather have Mahomes because I think he's better at playing football. His mobility isn't Lamar but it's uncanny (unnerving, even), and certainly better than Brady's.

Neither Mahomes nor LeBron…

Neither Mahomes nor LeBron have changed anything.

How did Brady change the game more than Mahomes did? Honest question. Like, what did he change about the quarterback position?

I'd argue that Mahomes has a more distinct style.

I'm honestly happy for them…

I'm honestly happy for them that they didn't reach 28 straight losses like the Pistons.

I've never understood this…

I've never understood this. What better way to respect the victims of gun violence than to discuss steps to make sure this happens less in the future?

So does America just have…

So does America just have worse human beings than the rest of the developed world?

Or are people who live in underdeveloped countries with even worse gun violence just inherently worse people?

Is gun violence correlated with the number of "bad guys?"

I mean... there are entire…

I mean... there are entire ass countries where abortion isn't a political issue. It doesn't have to be like this in the long or even medium term.

How exactly does one go…

How exactly does one go about increasing "respect for life?"

There's tons of practical things we could do to decrease gun violence in this country. It starts with fewer guns.

I seek peace and the middle…

I seek peace and the middle ground by being exhaustingly contrarian at all times.

Oh come on. Poole was the…

Oh come on. Poole was the 3rd best player on a team that won the finals 2 years ago. What would be different now if he had a 3rd year in college 5 years ago?

Yeah? So he's not a can't…

Yeah? So he's not a can't-miss-QB. Which is what he said.

Yeah ideally we keep good…

Yeah ideally we keep good ties with John and he sends us his next little freak.

Unfortunately, it seems likely the Ravens' DC job will be opening up, so he's gonna keep the best one for himself. Wouldn't be shocked if Minter ended up at the Ravens, either.

To be fair, they sent Odunze…

To be fair, they sent Odunze deep more times than just those three. We did bust down the same side of the field 3 times, though.

The video timestamps are all…

The video timestamps are all messed up :(

Ward's better than what they…

Ward's better than what they have but he's not Stroud and not even McCord as a passer. He can run some, but at this point every DE in the country has been taught how to defend the zone read since middle school. That could help their run offense some but Day has no idea how to coordinate a rushing attack, and they don't have the horses on the line anymore.

If they get Henderson back that's huge because otherwise they have like one decent RB and no depth other than true freshmen.

 

As they should.

As they should.

What the hell are you…

What the hell are you talking about dude? Feel happy for the Mizzou players.

They're not going to fire…

They're not going to fire him if he keeps winning 11 games a year, but he's one 9-3 season away from getting dumped. He's used up all the good will he has. As an actual answer (let's say in 2 years)?

Vrabel if things go south at Tennessee. They'd back the truck up for him because he's an actual football coach who understands the need to build from the lines. No clue if he'd want to come coach college, recruit, etc. though. But he's their white whale.

Monty Williams has like a …

Monty Williams has like a .350 winning percentage when he doesn't have Chris Paul lmao

Apparently Tom Gores has Pistons' arena employees taking bags away

The Athletic asked Tom Gores…

The Athletic asked Tom Gores about the chants that he should sell the team and this is a direct fucking quote: "If you put aside winning, we’ve made a very big difference in the community"

That's the attitude you want from your owner, that's for sure. Google "Tom Gores Securus" to see how Tom Gores makes a difference in his community.

WTF is "not the bee"?

WTF is "not the bee"?

On the plus side we don't…

On the plus side we don't play PSU next year.

He's an excellent outfielder…

He's an excellent outfielder if they need him to be. He plays DH sometimes to save energy and his arm. Next year he's getting Tommy John so he'll only be a DH cus he can't throw the ball into the infield.
