I’ll put your best alumni - Charlie Batch - vs. ours - Terry Crews.

Grew up in Detroit, went to Western.  Would always scream on 94 as we approached Climax on the way to school.

This is one of the reasons student loan debt is the next housing bubble. Yes, Harvard as a private institution can have a $40B endowment, but public unis do it to. The University of Michigan has an endowment of $12B, Ohio State is $5B, USC is $5.4B. Any one of these institutions could go tuition free for the…

As someone who has kids, I’ve always respected people who understand they just plain don’t want kids. Kids do become your whole life. To have the self-awareness that it’s just not for you when everyone around you is doing it is great. I’ve met a lot of people who shouldn’t be parents but are. I think if they were more…

Tiffany.  She’s been playing us all for fools.

The interesting point is going to be when the Republican party realizes he’s become more trouble then he’s worth.  I would imagine it will be an almost lock step pivot with McConnell, Graham, and the rest of the machine throwing him under the bus all within the same 24 hour period.  Trump won’t have any idea why all…

I’d be less excited about that than finding out how much he’s really worth. It would be great to see the commercial “Trump says he’s worth $3.8B dollars, but in reality, his tax returns show he owes Deutsche Bank$152M. If he’s lying about that, what else is he lying about?”

this roster is all gristle, no meat. But there’s one man who thrives in that situation: Jim Tomsula. That guy can make a hearty stew out of anything.

That’s one of the things I don’t understand. Take the oil companies as an example. They make an absolute shit-ton of $$$ on environmentally destroying products. If they took a sliver of the profits from this, they could out-Musk Musk on any sort of project. Then, they would be in a great position for the next wave of…

Or, you know, hit unsubscribe at the bottom of the newsletters and send everything else to spam.  I have both Yahoo & Gmail accounts and don’t have an issue with this because I’m ruthless.  It takes less than a minute a day on average to keep it that way.

1-0-1 is not good, especially the way they pissed away the lead in the Arizona game.

As a Lions fan, I can say with all honesty, brutal but fair.

I think you mean the faculty of Michigan State.

Splinter has yet to touch on the corruption in the UAW. Whenever there’s a story about this, it’s about how great and wonderful the union is doing for the little guy. It’s not about leadership robbing money from education and strike funds to enrich themselves. As someone else pointed out, Jalopnik is covering it.

Where they lost. Kicker’s are usually judged on the highlight reel kick to win the big game. While Hanson had plenty of those, none of them ever won a playoff game.

You could argue for Jason Hanson of the Lions, but the fact he’s a Lion would probably stop that cold.  He’s 4th on the list all time, but he’s never been on a playoff team.

Still no mention on Splinter of UAW executive leadership getting rolled up in corruption charges?  7 convictions and counting. The current and past president are both implicated. This should have a huge affect on the contract talks as how can the rank and file trust what’s being negotiated for them when they know…
