I hate playing BC. And Miami. Two teams that I have no interest in, but seem to beat us 75% of the time.

Ah, tradition. The ACC really maintained tradition when they designated Pitt as Maryland's new "rivalry" partner. Or maybe K was actually referring to the tradition of treating Maryland like the outsider in the ACC good ole' boys network. Is it any wonder that the Terps said, "No thanks. We're going to get paid."?…

That picture above #3 made me very nostalgic. I miss my Spec V. :-(

Those first two calls really did kill any momentum that ND could have built in the first quarter. They needed everything to bounce right if they even wanted to have a remote chance in the game, and nothing did. Bama executed flawlessly in the first half, and that's all she wrote.

Sad Andy Reid is good, but Lovie Smith's dismissive toss just has a "Go home and get your shine box." feel to it. That always wins.

I respect Ryan's throw off of his back foot. All coaches should throw their challenge flag like they're a QB being chased out of the pocket.

You're right. Teams gottta play somewhere, but it doesn't have to be in your community. If another municipality wants the stadium more and is willing to subsidize the project, your community loses. Money flows out of your system and into the new stadium's neighborhood. That community prospers, while your…

They are being financed by "Wall Street types". Based on the fact that you used the term "Wall Street types", I'm guessing you mean banks, hedge funds, and private equity firms. Most investment banks have a public finance coverage group (underwriting debt) which will raise municipal bonds and trade them. Hedge…

Interesting post, but there isn't anything shocking about this information. Public funding as a percentage of total funding floats between 50-70% for the majority of the projection period.

I am no fan of Dan Snyder, but the collusion thing gives him a free pass to crap all over Mara and company.

While I found the writeup hilarious, my ND alum wife was flipping her shit after reading it. I'll say here what I said to her. Most of this article is dead on as to why people typically love or hate Notre Dame. If the younger generation is indifferent to the Irish, they won't be for long. And here’s why:

Broken glass everywhere

Are there any refinancing options for my federal grad student loans now that Sallie Mae is out of the game? I don't own a house, so home equity loans are not available to me. I'm paying 7.8% for federal plus loans, which is higher than some of the credit card rates I have! It seems crazy to think that I can get a…

Are there ways to refinance student loan debt now that Sallie Mae is out of the game? Grad loans at 7.8% in a low interest rate environment is ridiculous and because I don't own a house, a home equity line is out of the question. I have credit cards with better rates than my federal grad loans and a very high credit…

Yes. It is a gang sign regardless of where it is used. It was inappropriate if Brent Barry did it at the All-Star game.

LOL! You're amazing. Crip walking is basically a dance version of signing "Crip". It is, in fact, the equivalent of throwing up a gang sign. If it's so acceptable, would you do it in front of actual Crips? Actually, if you film yourself Crip walking in front of a bunch of Crips (or Bloods, for that matter), I…

Good argument, troll. What am I paranoid over, again?
