Official 2008-2009 College Football Thread
I think any Michigan fan that wants Rod gone after 1 year is an idiot. You always have to give him a few years to see how HIS recruits do and he has a good class coming in next year. This team, record wise, is worse than I thought they would be, but if they didn't turn the ball over so much, they may have 1 or two more W's. Who knows. And for the kids leaving, see ya! Don't want to commit yourself to the team or the program, leave. Buh bye.

Mike Downey Gone From Tribune
I don't think he really added anything with his columns and didn't find him too interesting. I'm sure they could get better columnists to write than Downey.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Nov 20, 2008 -> 10:11 PM) Obviously comparing the talent level and competition of UCLA and SIU is apples and oranges (although SIU had a much tougher opponent tonight), but watching both of them feels similar for me at times in the sense that it feels like they are designed to play defense only, not so much score points. I know that isn't how it is, but it feels that way. SIU has been scoring a lot of points in the first two games of the year. Unusual compared to the last couple of years. Not sure if it was the bigger floor, nerves, or what, but they couldn't knock down a shot to save their lives. This southern team will put up points.

MySpace is stupid, Facebook is cool. I reconnected with a lot of people from high school and college and it's simple. Not all spammy like myspace.

Is Moose a HoF Pitcher?
He seems like the type of player that doesn't have that great moment that everyone remembers that gets him in the Hall of Fame. No rings, no big games pitched. If he gets in before Blyleven, I riot.

Entourage
QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 17, 2008 -> 10:47 AM) Ugh really? I thought it was kinda lame. It's the same mold as the rest of the season, which IMO is no good. Is that storyline even real? Would a studio just drop a movie in the middle of production just because a director and actor are having issues. And really, what director/actor would get the studio head involved? My favorite part of the episode was Drama not being in it. My least favorite was not having E in it. Next week looks ok. I'm interested to see where they take the story now that they secured another season. It was also way over budget, and studios have absolutely shut down production on movies like that.

Catch-All Anything Thread
QUOTE (lostfan @ Nov 16, 2008 -> 09:54 PM) Google is my friend. I always have to make sure I'm interpreting it "correctly." They say poetry is open to interpretation, that's a crock, I have a tendency to be WAY off because it's so god damn cryptic. Langston Hughes is probably my favorite poet because what he writes is so simple to read. The thing about Shakespeare is that if you can understand what he's saying, it's actually really good, esp. the stories. I was pissed when I had to read Othello because it was so long, but the plot was great. It just took me forever to read. Othello is probably my favorite as well. Luckily it was a beginner Shakespeare class so we read that, Romeo & Juliet, and a couple others that were pretty easy to follow.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Nov 16, 2008 -> 08:27 PM) American Military University, an online school. Literature isn't for everybody, especially POETRY, I always feel like it's being forced down my throat. I'm the same way. Never understood poetry nor got into it. My last semester at SIU, I need 3 hours of an elective, so was convinced by a female friend to take Shakespeare with her. I had no clue what I was reading. I really tried as well. I had to rent the movies to get plot points down, never understood the dialogue. The fact that I put forth the effort made me feel good though. I showed up everyday, participated, squeaked out a C. I took it and graduated.

So do the refs look at the play when the review it under the hood? There was no way that was a touchback. Clearly and they still ruled it one. Awful officiating in the NFL continues.
