  1. Poor blacks face a lot more discrimination than poor whites. Really?! I didn't know that............*sarcasm* Guess I should've put "rhetorical question" in there. I just simply disagree with having to label everything with color, but that seems to be popular these days. It didn't seem rhetorical. Things are labeled that way because there is an actual problem.

  3. I also read today that they're not allowed to announce the suspensions of the players (if any) who were involved. So we probably won't know until Friday.
  4. Kinda funny how we're the ones that have to make excuses for our coaching transition. Ohio State's went great......Florida's went great.....Michigan's went great..... Michigan's went great with Brady Hoke, too. The first season does not tell the whole story, whether it's great or terrible.
  5. Very cool. But not nearly as cool as sending the seniors out with a win over top-5 undefeated Iowa, or securing a nice bowl invite. We are going to be lucky to have a bowl invite (even if it is all but guaranteed at this point). But a "nice bowl invite" is not in the cards this year. If it's all but guaranteed how are we lucky to have a bowl invite? We weren't lucky to win 5 games. We were unlucky to not win 6 or 7 (up to this point).
  6. Hopefully no starters did anything to warrant not playing.
  7. We're undefeated against all undefeated teams in the month of November in 2015 in the sport of football.
  8. Nturd Dame only up 10-3. If they lose Iowa will be 3rd
  9. GameDay is always on Saturday GamedaY is always on Sunday, Gameday is always on a day In some time zones Gameday is on a night. What time is it? *game time* Gameday is most certainly not at the same time as game time.
  10. We didn't run all that well against MSU and Iowa's run defense is better. (I still think we'll win though)

  13. No, and it would be stupid if he did. Whites don't need to form their own special group to get their voices heard. They're over represented in pretty much every positive category you can think of, and underrepresented in the negative ones. how are the whites under represented in the negative category wise? I'm assuming you're joking but if not I'll mention one: Poverty rate 10% of Whites are in poverty. 27% of Blacks, 24% of Hispanics. It's a problem for Whites but not near as much of one as it is for Blacks or Hispanics. They have much more reason to try to have their voices heard to try to get the problem fixed. Perhaps I should have said comparatively since ideally there would be 0% poverty rate.

  15. I catch someone cheating. No one wants to be that person. Ugh. But I can't stand it when they do it. Most of the time the people who cheat are cheating off people who do WORSE than them. Damn kids. *shakes fist* Speaking of cheating, if I was ever gonna do it I would write the formulas on my pencil.
  16. I don't think we'd need a rumor to tell us one of them was arrested.
  17. So we're gonna have a another single digit scoring game?
  18. Here's something I haven't seen discussed. (I don't think I've read this thread word for word so forgive me if someone's mentioned it). There are 2.77 million Muslims in the U.S. and we're making a big deal about a few thousand coming here. Don't you think if it was your religion and you heard all of this stuff on the news lately and then heard one of the top presidential candidates suggest shutting down all of your religious buildings, you would be more likely to want to fight for your religion? Who wouldn't want to do that? If you're Christian imagine someone saying they're going to close down all of the churches because the KKK killed a bunch of people. That would put me on alert. I feel like the risk of attacks could increase because of this and not from refugees but from Muslims who are already here and who could have been peaceful. I'm thinking impressionable kids here who are teenagers right now and who have probably already dealt with plenty of bigotry before all of this.
  19. It could have happened while she was asleep, then she woke up and figured out what happened. Or since they were at a party alcohol may have been involved. I never buy that as an excuse. If you choose to drink then you need to understand that the things you do while under the influence may or may not be agreeable to you when you sober up, but it was YOUR decision to drink so you get to live with the consequences of your actions. (When I use the word you in this post, I don't necessarily mean you Moiraine.) An excuse for what? Seeing as I was replying about how the alleged victim gave a range of 2:30-7 or whatever, and her not knowing what time it was may have been because she'd been drinking, it seems as though you're implying the excuse is for the rape. Getting raped is the consequence of the rapist's actions. Not the person who got drunk. People shouldn't have to stay sober just out of fear of getting raped. If that's not what you meant then I'm not sure what you're talking about.
