Rolling anything hurts. OK, foot and sometimes back feels kinda good, but anything else. It's probably my calves that need it the most. Only the people at my gym with super smooth muscles used barbells, for us mere mortals a foam tube hurts plenty enough.
So is rolfing just professional foam rolling? Does it hurt less? Because foam rolling or using a lacross ball or worse a barbell is fucking excruciating.
I think that was just Jim being a man with integrity. He said he wouldnt look at NFL for 7 years and that's exactly what he did. And then he looked at it every year, heh.
Wow I can't believe people are downvoting this. Tell me how having Terrance Shannon on our basketball team the last two years is hurting Michigan's brand. Athletes major in athletics, their real degree is athletics, and the good ones will have a far greater affect on Michigan's brand than thousands of academic transfers combined. It's ludicrous to not let them in because of where they took their kinesiology classes for a degree they'll never use.
DJ Waller hasn't done anything yet. We can't be paying all the starters and still give a huge bag to some guy who has hardly played and might be a starter or rotation player. Just like with Sabb, Bama will always pay more for their 1st safety than we will for our 3rd.
Yeah I'm not spending a lifetime of savings (or giving them a lifetime of debt) to send my kids out of state to Michigan. They can go local, even a CC for a couple years, very few professions give a shit about where you went to school or even your gpa.
there's another rule that they have to have enough credits to be on track to graduate. I don't know the details but thats why players cant just choose to give up a bunch of credits and come anyway.
Every fanbase has its assholes. I don't think its the prevailing opinion. I also think some of it is just convincing themselves this won't negatively affect winning. Sometimes that takes some mental gymnastics, sometimes it's just accurate.
lol same. My wife and kids have zero interest in sports so for a very long time I just watch replays after the family is asleep. I spent way too many nights wasting 1+ hours of my free time watching dong punches so I started only watching games we win while avoiding any details about the game including the score. So...I watched 8 games this year. Oh shit, that means i watched an OSU game. I still was unfamiliar with his game, lol.
For a long time I've been a fan of recruiting NBA legacy kids. They don't need the money and they usually out-perform their recruiting rankings. Heh, unfortunately and ironically Juwan's kids were a good argument against that plan...
What did I miss? Why are half the comments shitting on Scottie Pippen? Or is this a Pistons thing (Ive always lived on the west coast besides 4 years in ann arbor)?
I don’t understand how people are still confused about recruiting. The high level recruits have always predominantly gone to the highest bidder and we remain one of the lowest bidders. There is no championship bump, we’re simply the first non high bidder to win.
I'm more excited about how he operates. He seems to be smart, flexible, and always looking to learn more. He's youngish and hard working. He got his success through hard work and smarts not riding coattails and skirting the rules. It's just big Beilein vibes all around.
It was mostly a joke. All jokes have a shred of truth, the shred of truth in this one is they did lose to NW which isnt exactly a B1G powerhouse and that I didn't realize how awful FAU was before he joined and preferred the other options in Brian's top 4. But the more people have dug into him the more he sounds like new Beilein and I'm excited about the hire.
Flowery language aside, the roundtable is not on the mgoblog podcast feed but it is on the wtka michigan insider one its just labeled as craig ross not the roundtable this week which was rather confusing as I only figured that out now after far too much work.
Wade's problem as a coach is that he's not a coach he's a purchaser and then spectator of talent. There is no coaching involved. The fact it is now basically within the rules makes him simultaneously less shady but less effective.
I'm really excited about this hire. I wasn't in the beginning when I didn't realize how horrible FAU was before him but the deeper you dig the better it gets. Can't wait for next year and beyond.
I like a lot of these names, sounds like a lot of good options. However, when I saw this picture when I opened mgoblog I for a moment thought Warde was fired. I guess a CC list is a decent consolation.
The older I get the less I want to waste 2 hours watching us lose whether it be a blowout or a heartbreak. Plus I'm busy with work or family during almost all game times and would rather watch in the peace and quiet at midnight. So my method starting 5 or so years ago has been to avoid the games, try to figure out via our message board if we won or not without getting any details such as the score, and then only watch games we won. Sure once in a blue moon I could miss a great game we lost such as one or more Painter-Beilein offensive extravaganzas or that first half against UCLA that was 50-50 or so, but it's well worth it not blowing hours of my free time on pain. All of which is to say that this season basically never happened from my point of view since I only watched 9 games (we won the exhibition). Hell I didn't even bother trying to not see the score most of this year since I always knew we were going to lose, lol.
Saban is only the GOAT in terms of cheating at football. Overall second only to Wooden in that sense. Stop fellating a guy who was only successful by buying an nfl roster, oversigning, and then fucking over the busts. Good riddance.
I don't understand fans who think anything other than extreme cockiness is cowering. I didnt downplay winning the game, I'm using past results and current states of the teams to predict the future which is 90% of sports fandom. This is our 'everyone left' year and this is their 'everyone came back and more' year. We beat them badly twice when they had awful defenses but that got fixed last year and they were the 2nd best team we played all year. Anyone cocky about us winning next year is lying to themselves or extremely delusional. We could win, I of course hope we win, but we are rightfully underdogs.
I don't understand everybody's confidence. We barely beat them this year with our best team ever. Our defense will be similar in quality this year but we're losing the entire offense, including our top 10 qb. Oh and we replaced half our coaches. Meanwhile OSU got all their draftable guys except 2 to come back and bought a bunch of transfers. If we win this year it'll be 10x the upset from last time we were in Columbus.

Also, lol, you didn't answer my question. Why does everything you post not answer any questions, lol.

This new era of college sports is so stupid. Revenue sharing and contracts already, please.
Wow, Vlad's ripped. I feel like 7 footers almost always look doughy (or skeletal).
And losing even 2 games would be a embarrassing with that schedule.
You misunderstand. Our schedule was 'easy' last year, NDs is ridiculously easy this year, therefore ND 2024 makes M 2023 look like a murderer's row.

There has never been such a boost. The best players go to the biggest bag (predominantly). We're the first bag-less team to win a championship.
DJ Waller hasn't done anything yet. We can't be paying all the starters and still give a huge bag to some guy who has hardly played and might be a starter or rotation player. Just like with Sabb, Bama will always pay more for their 1st safety than we will for our 3rd.
I applied in early fall 96 and got accepted before Halloween. Was rather nice as then I didn't have to apply anywhere else, lol.

you just flip the damn capri sun upside down and stab the bottom, easy peezy.

Michigan is never going to pay more for their 3rd safety than Bama will pay for its 1st.

Just like in football, the vast majority of the top players go to the highest bidder. And just like in football, that was never us.
No, that was Elijah Elliot. This guy's a point guard who's a good scorer.
For a long time I've been a fan of recruiting NBA legacy kids. They don't need the money and they usually out-perform their recruiting rankings. Heh, unfortunately and ironically Juwan's kids were a good argument against that plan...
"There are some similarities there to Nimari Burnett, who may have been Michigan's only above-average defender in the backcourt last season."
This sounds really bad until you realize the denominator was 2.
Maybe he's the guy we see in all those workplace training videos...
What did I miss? Why are half the comments shitting on Scottie Pippen? Or is this a Pistons thing (Ive always lived on the west coast besides 4 years in ann arbor)?
I've got the height and sports IQ but literally nothing else.
I don’t understand how people are still confused about recruiting. The high level recruits have always predominantly gone to the highest bidder and we remain one of the lowest bidders. There is no championship bump, we’re simply the first non high bidder to win.
Considering those first round picks were picked based purely off of potential thats meaningless to include.
Dudek fucked that up and got fired for it.
He doesn't appear any more muscular than usual.
I'm more excited about how he operates. He seems to be smart, flexible, and always looking to learn more. He's youngish and hard working. He got his success through hard work and smarts not riding coattails and skirting the rules. It's just big Beilein vibes all around.

I had the same issue with Jack Nicholson and Jack Nicklaus as my parents watched golf constantly.
I'm really excited about this hire. I wasn't in the beginning when I didn't realize how horrible FAU was before him but the deeper you dig the better it gets. Can't wait for next year and beyond.
Sweet, so we can have a coach and a team that can't beat northwestern.
this was the candidate i wanted least, hope im wrong.
I didn't even make a bracket. I lose interest once Michigan gets knocked out...which was in, like, December.
I was never hype on him. His track record is basically one season.
I like a lot of these names, sounds like a lot of good options. However, when I saw this picture when I opened mgoblog I for a moment thought Warde was fired. I guess a CC list is a decent consolation.

This was at least 90% a joke, simmer down, lol.
The remaining 10% is *gestures at the OSU-induced 'scandal' of a few months ago*
I don't like this, this only makes sense from his pov if he's coming here to spy and sabotage us from the inside!
May have never beat OSU as a player, but he never lost as a coach!
Saban is only the GOAT in terms of cheating at football. Overall second only to Wooden in that sense. Stop fellating a guy who was only successful by buying an nfl roster, oversigning, and then fucking over the busts. Good riddance.
Comparing the cleanest coach in history to one of the dirtiest is just plain gross.
lol, use google, there are a billion stories about players being paid, often coming from the player themselves.

I don't think he will. I think he'd instantly hate it since everything he hated about college has gotten far worse. But I'm all for it!
