I am not much a fan of the NFL, but I am enjoying some peeps of the New England game. I believe that Tom Brady was probably Charles Babbage and Ferdinand Magellan in past lives.
Young Sir, Do you happen to know Grant, or do you have some insider info, or is this just your opinion? You sound very confident. In my opinion, Grant came to Michigan to play football and get an education. If he is medically cleared to do this and be effective, I would believe that he would do it. My Great Uncle had his insanity tested (almost ended up in a psychological institution) many times and he could have walked away, but he was competitive and committed to accomplishing his goal. So, despite the risk to his health, he accomplished what he set out to do and he helped many people in the world indirectly by not taking the easy way out. I wish young Grant well either way, but I think some are underestimating, the spirit and resolve of one Grant Newsome.
In my astute opinion it was below average. They are trying to hard to be funny (much like Justice League). The intellect is lacking and I feel like they are rushing these too quick. I get so anxious when I see the trailers for these movies cause I just know it won't live up to my expectations. Now days everyone just wants to make a quick buck and doesn't care about quality. My son and I had to come home and practice quiz bowl questions, just to make sure our neurons were still firing.
Why yes I am, graded for about 72 hours straight after my last class Tuesday (very little shuteye involved). Oathbringer has been calling my name for about a month, so I had to get the grading out of the way. Grading can crush the soul my friend, so good luck to you.
Being a college professor (not at Michigan.. yet :)) i have a lot of down time from now until the 2nd week of January, so I eagerly await bowl season. I might not watch a lot, other than the good guys, but it's nice that I know it's there. I just started the new Brandon Sanderson book and let me tell you, it's a thick one, so that will keep me busy. I'll also be building a large model train set to put around the Christmas Tree. Lots of eggnog in my future haha.
According to my calculations we are getting a great class for next year. I would explain to everyone how I came up with this but it's really long and boring... just picture dad and son with internet access and oodles of wisdom on how to use it. Yeah, were football nerds and we're ok with it.
Crainey, It can be very stressfull waiting. You will get in and it will change your life. If you don't, it won't be because you aren't smart enough. My mom and dad had to spend hours with me at the library to help me study and be prepared to have the skills to ace everything in high school, which helped my chances immensely. Just hang in there and best of luck to you.
