GVSU just banned Sigma Phi

GVSU just banned Sigma Phi Epislon for 5 years for hazing after a member/pledge had to be treated for alcohol poisioning and a concussion after falling.  A couple years ago they gave a lifetime ban to Tau Kappa Epislon.

 

 

 

Former players sometimes

Former players sometimes don't have a beat on what's going on with the football program.  I mean Braylon, when he wasn't showing up to his radio gig drunk, really didn't have a clue either.

it's easy to lock down the state in recruiting when you're the only major D1 school in the state.

 

 

No state income tax, really

No state income tax, really don't have to leave the state to recruit top talent.  Why would anyone want to leave?  Unless it was for heart (ahem) issues....

The offense has 9 new

The offense has 9 new starters and people expect the offense to be amazing this year.  Granted I think Pep has done more harm than good with the passing game, but the fact that this team is 8-2 right now is a minor miracle.

This.  Haven't beat anyone of note.  

It was a great performance

It was a great performance against a subpar team.  Now do it again against Maryland, and show up against Wisconsin and OSU.

if you don't mind walking,

if you don't mind walking, park at the structure on the corner of 4th & Washington.  We parked there for the MSU debacle, and only paid $6 for being in AA for 11 hours.

Plus you can go down 4th to depot and bypass all the Main Street traffic to get on M14

Josh Jackson has over 2,000

Josh Jackson has over 2,000 yards passing and Cody White has over 300 yards receiving so far.  

 

Oh yeah....Cody White didn't get an offer from Michigan (has more receiving yards that DPJ) and Josh Jackson didn't have an offer from Michigan either even though he was RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD.

Not sure if it's complicated,

Not sure if it's complicated, but you can't have long developing routes when the line can't protect the QB.  The WR aren't doing JOK any favors though, they need to work back to the ball on their routes too.

How about going max protect

How about going max protect on that punt or not going 5 wide in the pouring rain and having your team prepared coming off of a by week? Had he done that then Harbaugh would be a better coach.

The "rivals" record matters

The "rivals" record matters because if you don't beat your rivals, you're not winning the Big 10 East.  

In Saban's 3rd year at Bama, he won a national title

In Urban's 3rd year at OSU, he won a national title

In Kelley's 3rd year at ND, the team played for a national title

Dabo's 3rd year was garbage, Franklin's 3rd year at Pederast St he won the B10 and played in the Rose Bowl.

Getting kids drafted is great, but Harbaugh isn't getting paid to get kids drafted.  He's getting paid to win - inclusive of beating OSU and MSU.  

 

 

 

Penn St rankes 46th in total

Penn St rankes 46th in total offense in FBS. 31st in passing yards/75th in rushing yards

Their defense ranks 22nd in total defense.  10th against the pass, 22nd against the rush.

 

I really like our defense against their offense, but complete derp face with our offense against their defense. 

1-7 against main rivals,

1-7 against main rivals, something has to change.

We got into town at 1pm, drank/ate at Conner O'Neils until about 5pm, walked toward the stadium and met up with some friends at differnet tailgates.  It only took us 35 min getting out of AA from the parking structure at 4th and Washington.  Minus the rain and the end result of the game, it was a good time

only vertical video is good on mobile, horizontal video is still a bad consumer experience, and with most advertisers sites not mobile ready preroll often performs better in the desktop experience.

Average Salary for CFL Player

Average Salary for CFL Player – $80,000

You read that right, out of the 9 teams and around 44 players per team, the average salary of a player is only around $80,000. Now, this can expand to over $400,000 per year for quarterbacks, but can be as little as just over $42,000 per year as a minimum payment for someone who often sits on the bench. 

I found this just doing a quick search.  If you can stick around and be someone who plays you can make a decent living.

He works out at the same gym I go to.  Pre Stroke he was social and always talking with people.  Post Stroke you could tell he just wasn't himself, like he lost a part of his self.

Hopefully he gets back to his self and this retirement is short lived.

I really think Dantonio has lost control of his team.  This new investigation coupled with the investigation of the 3 others, and not to mention having a starting LB leave the team because he drops the N bomb when talking about teammates is not a good look.  

kids who are boardline

kids who are boardline projected 1st round picks usually end up going late in the second round because there's always a couple teams who take a flyer on some Euro player no one has ever heard of.

He's been a douche since his

He's been a douche since his days at GVSU.  I remember an encounter he had with head coach of the mens/womens track and CC team.

"I MAKE THIS UNIVERSITY MONEY, YOU DON'T DO SH*T FOR THIS SCHOOL.  NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR TEAMS...YOU DON'T MATTER COMPARED TO FOOTBALL."

All a kid needs is love,

All a kid needs is love, shelter, clothes, and food.  everything else is trial and error.  With that said, 

 

I was shown this list (I have a girl too) and it seems like some good things to follow:

1. Know that from day one, she'll always be your little girl. But you have to put in the effort to keep it that way.

2. Don't assume or influence what her interests will be because she's a girl. Don't just point out flowers and dolls. Show her cars and LEGOs, too.

3. Let her help you around the house or with your work. She'll grow up to be a woman who feels confident stepping up in the workplace, no matter the job.

4. Talk to her mama like an equal, not an inferior, and she'll someday expect the same.

5. Show her your sensitive side. She'll see that if she's sensitive, too, it doesn't make her weak.

6. Have inside jokes or games, just between the two of you. Trust me, she'll remember them forever.

7. Encourage her to do the things that scare her, because you'll always have her back.

8. Make her promises, and then keep them. The only heartbreak in her life should come from others who don't know how special she is.

9. Show her the skills that you know well.

10. Ask her to show you the skills that she knows well and you don't. 

11. Attempt to understand her interests even when you don't. You'll teach her that no matter what her talents are — ballet, art or wrestling with the boys— they matter.

12. This is especially true if her interests are more "girly." Teach her that her interests are just as important no matter what they are.

13. If you wouldn't say it to a son, don't say it to your daughter.

14. When she comes to you with a problem, don't brush her off or tell her to go to her mother. Listen. She'll come back.

15. Don't talk about her changing body, or interest in sexuality, with disgust. You'll only teach her that she should be ashamed of it.

16. Don't talk about other's women's bodies in an objectifying or demeaning way. She's listening, and then examining her own.

17. Talk about strong women in front of her, not just strong men, and she'll aspire to be them someday, and will know she has a chance.

18. Work stuff out with her mother in front of her. She'll see that women deserve a voice in relationships and will look for someone who will appreciate hers.

19. Don't joke about having a shotgun when boys come over. You'll only teach her that you don't trust her judgement.

20. Stand up for injustice and the oppressed. Believe the oppressed when they say they're oppressed. You'll show her compassion and that there's nothing unmanly or inferior about doing what is right. 

21. If you lead by example, you won't need to scare the bad boys away. She'll want better. 

22. If there is a bad boy in the bunch, make sure you're there if her heart should break. Chances are, it will. Make yourself available for her to turn to, and not back to him.

23. Tell her that the only person in charge of what happens to her body is her.

24. Compliment her, and her mother, often.

25. Tell her you love her. Text her about the game. Let her know that no matter what, you'll always be there.

As a fan base I think we

As a fan base I think we still get skeptical hippo from when the previous staffs have hired people.  Jay is still a good recruiter, and seems to be very bright.  I'm not worried about him making the change to RB coach just because of how strong the overall staff is, and he'll get any and all support he needs.

I'd be good with this move.

I'd be good with this move.  

 

People crapping on him because of the Pistons haven't been paying attention.  That franchise became morbid under Karen Davidson, the roster have been overhauled.  The team stil has it's holes (a shoot first PG, a center who can't do anything outside of the paint), but Gores has been a present and good owner.  

click bait, pure and simple.

interesting motivation behind this, but it'll fail like every other starter league.  Until the NFL develops a feeder league, none of these other options will be viable.

so I've used in depth the following headsets

Oculus Rift

Samsung Gear VR

Google VR

PSVR

 

If you're looking for a true VR gaming experience, PSVR is the right headset.  If you're looking for something more a novelty, Gear VR/Google VR is the headset.

 

The problem with VR is that it's similiar to 3D TV in the sense that it's a 1:1 experience right now versus a shared experience.  Plus latency is still an issue (although I've only experienced it with the Gear VR and Google VR, PSVR is crisp).
