Spartan Nation is pleased!

I can't answer that question. It's a great question, but as a lifelong Lions fan, I wholeheartedly believe we are just snakebitten. That's my actual, best answer to your thoughtful question. I'm sorry.

The story should be how the exceptionally talented Lions once again shit the bed.

That person that gave him head spells his name better than his mother did.

He's probably the one who understands nuance.

No. It'll suggest "Jong Un - our overlord".

Now I'm torn. I hate, hate, hate their weird programming choices, but that was beautiful. I remember that scroll.

Worst NBC affiliate in the nation. During Conan's heyday on Late Night scheduled two to three programs between the Tonight Show and Late Night so Conan would be shown at 2:30 am. Regularly preempted "Community" to show a paid infomercial for the local hospital conglomerate. WDIV is horrible.

Yeah, hockey.

Harvard man?

The ref should have tossed him if it was bad enough to comment to him. Making the comment was out of line, period. I'm not saying he wasn't disrespectful, but the ref is the fucking ref, so his job is to enforce the rules. If the disrespect crossed the line, penalize him and keep it moving.

You could change "Alabama" with "Michigan", "Indiana", or "Tennessee" and switch "Auburn" with "Michigan State", "Purdue", or "Vanderbilt". It's almost universal in any state with two major teams that are in the same conference and one traditionally has more athletic success than the other.

You can't win if you don't play.

There's that classy St. Louis fan we've been talking about all week!
