With how testy everything is…

With how testy everything is in our society today, taking 100 or 50 year old positions and applying it to today's standards accomplishes nothing. If the goal is to make a mountain out of a molehill, go for it. 

I would guess close to half of the people hate Dave Brandon because he is a Republican and not because of his positions / actions. If Michigan goes after the Schembechler issue the same way as Yost, the divide will be much greater than the Rich Rodriguez era and probably cost the University $1B+. 

You can acknowledge someone's faults but not try to erase history, unless the goal is chaos.

I sat there watching that movie with my Dad and broke out in a sweat...he kept saying he would turn it off but I wouldn't let him. Funny movie to watch now, but back then as a kid I was terrified.

Been watching the Johns Hopkins chart daily and started putting the numbers in an excel chart. The hope from the 20-30 doctors I have spoke with is that the US rate comes down to a final range between 0.5 - 0.8% as more people are tested and the curve is flattened. The US population is 330M+ people to Italy 60M+.

Being from Toledo and having gone to 100+ games at both The Big House (I will be in attendance for the opening night game in section 23) and Nippert Stadium, I am really divided on this issue. I do know head high school football coaches in the Toledo area were openly slamming Harbaugh recently at a coaching clinic and advising their players from looking at Michigan. Toledo is probably 60% Ohio State fans and 40% Michigan fans so there is an Ohio State bias, but this little spat is still a bad look for Michigan in Northwest Ohio. Michigan has a very good history of success with Ohio athletes contributing to Championship teams and I will always defend Michigan (3 immediate family members are graduates of Michigan, with one playing football for Michigan), but this incident has me thinking less of coach Harbaugh. 

When 80-90% of transfers are being allowed (Shea Patterson was one of the players who helped open the floodgates creating a path to not sitting out a season) and Michigan transfers are in limbo (Aubrey Solomon at Tennessee still waiting as another example). Dabo Swinney did not like to see Kelly Bryant transfer To Missouri but he publicly wished him well and said he would help the process. Those Who Stay Will Be Champions, those who leave...bitter ex approach or better man approach. Publicly calling a former player (who may or may not have depression but I personally would error on side of caution) a liar, his mother a liar, and now another football coach a liar is another approach. I think the underlying current in this whole ordeal is Al Washington left Fickell at Cincinnati to go to Michigan, Washington left Harbaugh to go to O$U and Hudson is right in between this mess.

So Ray Rice collects his 3M dollar rookie contract, signs a 35M contract (had collected 25M when he knocked out his fiance) and is still doing alright.

Hunt's many life lessons (must get a life coach like Meyer) are to stop hitting women, forget the entourage and live in a bubble on your rookie contract. You don't act a fool UNTIL you get paid...finance 101.

You have Earl Bruce's daughter arguing with Courtney's Grandma.

Grandma - "I'm sure you didn't live with them and actually know if he abused her. That is the only way you could know for sure."

Bruce -  "I know your granddaughter and what she did to me and in front of me and I know my son. I know all I need to know - and so do you."

Grandma - "Just knowing her doesn't mean these things didn't happen."

Bruce - "Oh stop. She doesn’t speak to you to this day because she is and has been mentally off for a longtime... but you want to write her narrative? Take her side? Noted. Just remember this Gram. You know better as do I. Just like you said when you brought the applesauce and goulash to my house."

From, 
You know who wrote this."

If Net Netruality was done
If Net Netruality was done with common sense it would be awesome, but I think it's more likely that the FCC will treat Internet service like voice services. There is a 3% Federal Excise tax on local service, a "Universal Service Fund" tax, a "Federal Universal Service" fee, and local 911 charges on residential voice services today. It won't be long until you are subsidizing rural access and funding CALEA and FISA intercept capabilities for your carrier.

Undecided on if this vote is good or bad for me...scary thought of letting the government (Donald Trump / FCC) regulate the internet though. The classic Big Government vs. Big Corporation debate...does either side truly do things For The People.

Being a Bearcat and Wolverine

Being a Bearcat and Wolverine makes this an interesting matchup for me. I think UM wins 38-17 but UC looks like a different team in week 2 and plays up to the competition for at least the 1st half...then UM talent / depth help Michigan cruise to a victory in the second half.

To beat Michigan you have to be able to manage the game and run the football (in Harbaugh's 6 losses at UM the average rushing yards for the opposing team is 180 yards). Easier said than done - Michigan defense had as many tackles for loss (11) as Florida had rushing yards last week.



If Cincinnati finds a way to win time of possession, rush for 150+ yards, and Moore tests Michigan's secondary (weakest unit on the team IMHO) then there is a small chance at this game being close late in the 4th quarter. Early last season when UM was beating teams badly (Hawaii by 60, UCF by 37, Penn State by 39, Rutgers by 78, etc) Michigan was running the ball 50 times and controlling the clock. Against Florida last week, Michigan ran the ball 49 times and controlled the clock. Iowa beat Michigan last year 14-13 by winning time of possession, rushed for 168 yards and won the turnover battle...Cincinnati would have to pull off a similar trifecta on the road, hence the 34 1/2 point spread.
