My specific variant is the person who pulls out in front of me from a side street with no apparent ability to calculate physics, effectively cutting me off because I’m going 40 or 45 and they’re starting from a stand still. And when I look in my rear view mirror there’s no one behind me; so if they had just waited 10 seconds they’d have had all day to accelerate from 0-40.
Kudo's for your humility Kewaga - you also get at one issue we're all grappling with. When journalism is about advancing a specific narrative instead of about an honest pursuit of truth then the discourse naturally becomes more divisive and uninformed.
It's always been true that the reader of news needed to have a skeptical eye on the priors of the writer/media source. But that is magnified 100x in our world today because we all have the attention span of gnats, and the various outlets use algorithms/approaches specifically designed to reinforce whatever bias you might have and to grab "clicks". "Journalism" is now mostly a business designed to get clicks/generate ad revenue and/or act as propaganda for a range of political perspectives.
and maybe President Ono is also a bit exhausted responding to reactions from people who haven't gathered all the facts and were therefore unable to cohesively synthesize their position but instead acted rashly from that imperfect understanding?
when he had his radio show in Detroit I called in and won some contest (I think it was name a song that Denny didn’t know) and got an autographed 31-8 Denny McClain baseball. I came across that very ball today for the first time in years - interesting timing on this thread.
I think the idea of going out of our way to annoy another fan base isn't worth the effort.
At best I'd contemplate wearing the National Champions t-shirt with all the game scores on the back - and when the random Sparty heckles you for your team not being good at the basketballs I'd smile and say (with sincerity and acceptable enthusiasm) "you've got that right - horrible basketball season for us. But good luck to your team in the tournament!"
The good sportsmanship and kindness will likely be the most frustrating move you can make.
I was at that game - I think Joe M got in because McCaffrey had been brutally bludgeoned in the head. I turned to the Wisconsin people next to me and I said something like "this is Joe Milton, he has a cannon for an arm"
Then Milton threw that interception and I said "but it was a nice tight spiral".....
When UM played OSU in 2003 I remember the crowd starting an impromptu “Perry! Perry!” Chant. We won by 14 but it felt different in the stands and Chris Perry left it all on the field that game.
This is the one I followed when the initial NFL talk started again late last year. It was ok in an SB Nation kind of way - but can’t speak to it with any authority
I agree with this re UM B School (I went before it was Ross too). The emphasis is on getting a pretty well rounded business degree (econ, law, acctg, mktg, ops, finance, communications, cis etc,) so 90x% of the curriculum was common regardless of your "concentration". What the b-school was VERY good at was getting you in front of companies that were hiring. So if I were giving him advice I'd say assuming you get into the b-school a) I know you want to make a lot of money and I get that but don't lose your soul in the process b) knowing that you said "yeah whateva" to "a" I'd encourage you to take the core classes and see which ones are most interesting to you because you'll likely be able to pursue a job in that area of business. That may include all the finance/trading stuff but that may not be what you want c) take the intern stuff seriously - the students coming out of Ross have some pretty impressive skills from the classroom but most have a few years of interning that i. provides $ ii. gives you great experience iii. perhaps helps you focus on what you hate and what you like.
Hope that helps - I wish him much success and happiness in life.
yep - step 1 of a multi-step journey to lock in a staff and start prepping to defend the national title against the $13 million O$U juggernaut that everyone has already awarded the national title to.

Doyel using a hammer to smash his balls for all the world to see was a uniquely evocative image....well done!
It's funny that his DVD collection includes Joe Dirt and lot of Rockford Files.
Who else thought "well if I lived in LA I could just swing by to say 'hi' sometime"?
Yes.

Bronny James should go to OSU
seems fitting on many levels
some are no more than mere chicken scratch
Are they really saying Calipari is going to fly the coop?
the part where he switches the ball to his right hand and then casts aside #15 at the 10 yard line like a chew toy is just magnificent!

It's good to see Mays in Blue
I thought it was cool that the subtext under the headline spelled out "happy April fools"
Hopefully a repeat of the North Dakota game
My mistake - it does indeed say 31-6
when he had his…
Good story!

if he had a bloodhound named Blue he could have a basketball podcast called "Mays & Blue"
or maybe they'll top all the political spam texts I've been getting - just crazy and annoying - we need a national "do not text" list....
The story/setting for both Vicksburg and Chattanooga/Lookout Mtn are very memorable
or in the inverse of the Michael Jordan scenario they can make Ohtani go play in the NBA G League
He seems like a PR savant

Sounds like OSU fantasy porn clickbait.
Especially if your team lays an egg like Miami and TAMU have done lately.
Yes. He’s intelligent and even minded so of course he loves Michigan. :-)
I value his honesty and informed perspective.

The “Vehicular Fellatio” episode is very very funny.
I do believe in miracles - but I don’t believe one will happen in this game.
NNTM? I hope he excels!
are we still talking about the video from the OP or has this morphed into metaphorical territory?
wonder if he ever went to the ATM machine
maybe BET or STALIONS
to be fair.......who moves TO Ohio from someplace else?

Fritz Crisler being 39 was a surprise to me - I always imagined him as an older guy.
