Thanks Juicy, wasn't sure on that site. I saw it on Yahoo"s front page and clicked on it. We are in agreement 22, pretty much all speculation at this point.

That's hilarious, this man is so out of touch. ISIS has grown steadily because of the weapons we left behind and Saudi Arabia financing them. Obama should know this. France is turning loose the French Foreign Legion, so that should reduce isis numbers. Yes the FFI still in operation and from reports still a pretty darn good group of killers.

Oh my, your heart just goes out to the Carr & Curtis families. This is just so tragic. May God Bless his soul and let him rest. I can't say anymore than that or I will lose it.

Was that 2pt conversion just an FU play? What's your deal? That was just great. Carroll should always have someone F'ing with him.

The only thing I know, is this team needs a better QB. You would hope one of these kids that are on scholarship would prove to be a decent QB. I mean after a year of working with Harbaugh, somebody better improve.

You can add Bolden to that list too Philly. All of them give it their best and play hard, but they looked slow. Yes, if they play like that against OSU, it will be an epic beat down. You know the Urb would love to do that to Harbaugh.

Not sure if Dubee or anyone else could help this staff, as it stands today. Tigers have a lot of questions they have to answer for this off-season.
Tigers hire Rich Dubee as new pitching coach 11 hours ago AP - Sports Related Stories

Dubee takes over after Jeff Jones' retirement. Dubee was the minor league pitching coordinator for the Atlanta Braves for the past two seasons. Before that, he was the pitching coach for the Philadelphia Phillies for nine seasons.
He was with the Phillies when they won the World Series in 2008, and when their rotation included aces Roy Halladay and Cliff Lee.
The Tigers are trying to bounce back from a last-place finish this year, when their once-vaunted starting rotation slipped significantly.

Who goes to The U" ??? Can anyone bring that program back? What about Chuck Pagano of the Colts? He has coached there a couple of times and I saw so quotes he still holds the U in high regard. Plus he is 55 & coach there for a while.

I decided last season that I wasn't going to let the Lions or Michigan affect my entire week. It was getting to the point where I was so pissed off aafter loss that I was then pissed off at my family. I think most fans are like this. It's difficult to get out of that rut. The Spartan Troll is near 60 years old and he wants to die if MSU loses in football or basketball. Watching him is most likely the reason I decided to make changes. That's why I said I was on the verge of skipping football after we moved. Some 20 year old kid is not going to affect my day to day life. I may have seen a total of 15 minutes of Lions football this year. If my kids want to watch Teen Titans at 2PM on a Sunday, I have no problem with it. That's fine but nobody is truely Lions free. You caught a few minutes of a game and check the scores. That's not Lions free you just don't let it get to you. UltimateM had to have been reading our posts and frustrations and probably checks the scores. He felt so strongly about it thT he started this thread. Maybe I should clarify "Lions Free". When you live in the city where the team plays and still watch the NFL, you will never be totally free of them. What I am talking about, is not watch them when they are on TV. Go do something else, besides getting frustrated by a team that annually disappoints. Yes will see the updates and a family or friend will talk about them. BUT trust me when I say you all will feel better by not watching. Now the hardest day to do this is of course is Thanksgiving. You will have to adapt your strategy and plan accordingly. Good luck to all.

Gentlemen I am offering you all a solution to your Lions addiction. I say addiction because you guys put yourselves in harms way by watching these losers. Become Lions Free, as I have. I became Lions Free in 2008, when WCF's boys went 0 & 16, the year that will live in infamy. Free yourselves from this wretched organization and become a happier person in the process. I am not saying do not watch the NFL, just stop watching the Motown morons. You will thank me for this intervention. Just give this team the double finger solute and really start enjoying Sundays again.

It isnt the coach. Ken Holland has done nothing to really upgrade the defense. No chances are generated from the back end. The forwards have to do it all themselves. Actually, spot on. NONE of the young D have stepped up. Now Nyquist could stand to look for his shot more but hopefully that will come. Also, seems other teams make "veteran" free agent signings & they seem to pan out to a certain extent. Wings "veteran" free agent signings have been dumpster fire. I know it's early but lets hope Richards & Green start showing something. The young D still keeps making the same mistakes over & over. I had such high hopes for Smith. He is such a smooth skater, but the rest of his game has not developed the way it should at the NHL level. Also we all been waiting for Ericsson & Kindl to take big steps forward, but I believe this is the best they are going to be. The forwards on the other hand are making this season very entertaining.

"National Security and Double Government" by Michael J. Glennon. This book was recommended by a friend. It can be a little technical in sections, but it is a fascinating read. You will like it if like reading about the inner workings of our government. Dr. Glennon is a Professor of International Law, from Tufts University.

I haven't had many issues with Uverse internet where I'm at except for the price. The going rates for internet are rape. Gang Rape!! Totally agree on the absurd prices, but I have to say we haven't had any problems with the U either. Since they bought Direct TV, is that what they will switch us to or will there still be a choice of high-price TV?

Some of you got great ideas on ditching cable. I am one of those people that have a tons of channels & we have fast internet. Hell we even carry their security system for the home. Would love to save some money, but in all honesty would I? Until these internet sites can provide the financial news, sports, & the other programs my family want to watch, it doesn't make much sense to change. One way or another it sounds like to me I will be paying a lot of money and not getting everything I want. Let me know if I am wrong.

Good question. Would like to give you an answer, but I do not have a clue. All I know is his opinions are starting to piss me off.

Hoke interview in Sports Illustrated: This man just sounds so disingenuous to me. You get the feeling he would just love to bash the program. As for recruiting another QB that season, any intelligent coach would have. Morris was sick his senior season and was so darn skinny, you knew he would of have a hard time at a D1 school. Man I hope he gets another chance to impersonate a football coach, to show the world what a buffoon he is.

Guys, I feel your pain. The passion that we all have for this team can make you go crazy. HM, once the sting of this horrible loss subsides you will be back cheering for the Maize & Blue. Philly, I hope you survived bar louies. GW, hope you find a good (or bad) Australian to cheer you up. Eruff & jb the offensive talent can only get better.

I do feel bad for the guy. Punters hardly ever get mention, except when they do something bad. This play will be seen all over the world and millions will view his epic fail. Hopefully he and this team will recover from this.

They had to punt. If the punter drops on the ball the clock is stopped and MSU has a couple seconds to either kick a FG or throw into the end-zone

That was on par with Appalachian St. I said to myself all summer that I was going to skip football this year. I should have listened to my gut. Also that "Hail-Mary" against Colorado was a killer. This team makes it tough to be a supporter. The epic losses are killers

Stupid punter, you have one F'n job. BUT that being said this offense did not help this team at all They need to trim some of this epic dead weight that is killing this team. Michigan is not Bama, where some of these kids will playing for a small mid-major next year.

I am glad CB Henning was a good guest for you. Hopefully he will do you another favor & come back during the hot-stove league. I will listen to that last show this weekend. Even though I am one of those that dislike many of Lynn Henning articles and disagreed with him on his opinions.
