Over the past two months I have gone through some pretty serious health issues, which I will relate to you in a future blog. This one is simply a promotional piece; several months ago I wrote a manuscript, Love For Sale, which I held back from self-publishing because I knew Harlequin's So You Think You Can Write publishing contest would be rolling around eventually. Well, great news: early this month I received a phone call from an editor at Harlequin letting me know that my novel had advanced to the top 25 finalists, which meant that they wanted to read a full manuscript. I prepared and emailed it and received another phone call once I'd been discharged from the hospital, a call letting me know I had advanced to the top 10. I liked my manuscript, but apparently they did, too. I signed and had notarized an affidavit and sent it in, and the process was complete. When the day arrived and my book was posted in full for everyone to read, I began to stump for votes, and everyone seems genuinely excited about my opportunity to win this. I'm pretty excited, too. It's always nice to receive some recognition. If you'd like to vote for my novel, here's the link.

Is There Something Wrong With Me?
When I was younger, based on the world around me, I developed a construct for how I believed adulthood proceeded. I assumed that you graduated high school, began a job, and earned a living. I thought it was only natural to date, get married, and start a family. Having been an adult in the eyes of the law for the past twelve years, I have found that the only way to recognize myself as an adult is by realizing that everything sucks.
My goal was always to attend college, and I did that, earning two degrees. Thus far these degrees have merited me nothing other than a crushing amount of debt and applications that always are received with a response of "Thanks, but no thanks." When I was younger and finishing high school, it seemed to me that the majority of adults in their twenties and older worked; they may have had to travel to Richmond or Lexington to do it, but they were able to find reasonably good, well-paying jobs. For me, however, there seem to be no opportunities. No matter how badly I want a job, no matter how hard I work or how much I hope and dream and wish, nothing ever comes to fruition. I have felt so desperate lately that I began to Google things such as "Why can't I find a job?" and "Is Library Science a terrible degree?" I received an illuminating variety of answers, none of which served to assuage my anxiety. Is there something wrong with me? Do I simply not possess the necessary skills to hold down any position? I worked several jobs in college, and I imagine most of my former supervisors would give me high marks. Am I too ugly to be seen in public? If that's the case, surely there are still behind-the-scenes jobs where I could work.
And when it comes to relationships, I am clearly too ugly to live. I don't even like what I see when I look in the mirror, so I guess the idea that a woman might find me attractive is a stretch. Some people exude confidence, but life has given me very little reason for high self-esteem or positive feelings about myself. Perhaps a career could provide what I needed, because without a regular income I don't see how I could ever get married.
This lack of relationships, platonic or romantic or friendly, might explain the happy endings that permeate my novels. I am simply filling in the blanks and creating a world and feelings that I don't think I will ever know myself. My writing career, the only thing to provide me with a meager income the past few years, has also mostly stagnated. I guess that's the challenge for anything in life—when it's brand new, it's intriguing, but when you try to sustain it, that is where the real work comes in.

Heart Trouble Redux
I was both elated and privileged to learn recently that my novel, Heart Trouble, would be featured in a newly released boxed set via Crimson Romance, Crazy for Cowboys. The e-book boxed set is scheduled for release on September 8, 2014 via the Kindle Store, Barnes and Noble, and the iBookstore. These types of boxed sets seem to be a hot trend in publishing—I even put one together for my Windswept Saga novels—and I look forward to seeing what kind of sales this one may achieve.

Faster Than the Speed of Life
There's something to be said for taking things slowly and completing a project at a reasonable pace. I recently finished writing a novel in two weeks' time, and I hope and pray when I begin the editing process that it is worth reading. My writing involves lots of brainstorming but rarely do I write anything down beforehand. I simply open the document, write out a few passages or an entire chapter, save it and move onto my next project. I am beginning to wonder if this torrid pace and method is a good idea. I think I should consider some type of note-taking program where I can outline my ideas, but that also seems to run counter to the spontaneity and fluidity of writing. When you write on the fly, you are free to change ideas without the entire story crashing down around you like a house of cards.
The good news about having two complete novels in the pipeline is that I can launch them simultaneously once I've completed the editing, formatting, and design. I already have a cover in mind for one, so that's another project for me to work on.

Lie We Tell Ourselves
I had told myself that I was running out of book ideas—which is why I inexplicably am 25,000 words into a new manuscript I just started this week. The good news is that I have already searched online and found the perfect cover for this book albeit not for free. I guess time will tell if I can scrape together the money to purchase the rights for it. The more I look, the more I realize there are some great potential covers floating around online. So, the next time I tell you I think I've run out of ideas, and ask will I write again, you can answer a resounding "Yes!"
Tuesday, July 29, 2014
Should I Do It?
I have begun the second round of edits on this novel, and I am considering the possibility of saving it and submitting it to editors and publishers. I don't plan to query any agents—that takes too long, and I'm not any good at writing cover letters, much less queries. If I do submit, it will be to publishers who take manuscripts directly without a third party. Having already self-published ten-plus novels through Kindle Direct Publishing, I wonder to myself if holding back this book and putting it up for potential rejection is a good idea. My goal has always been to make myself as well as readers happy, but having some type of legitimacy or validation granted toward my writing wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. It also "widens the net", so to speak, getting your book sold in a variety of outlets and pushing the work of distribution onto a professional. I seem to have distribution and promotion issues anyway, which shouldn't be a surprise—I'm no good at self-promotion on any level. Regardless of what happens with this book, whether or not I choose to submit it, I will still publish it and put it out into the world. I'm not one to hold onto my works and hide them away—whether I use my own moniker or a pen name, every manuscript eventually makes its way into e-book form.

Will You Love Me Tomorrow
I will try to maintain this blog as long as there's a thought in my head, but I have to be honest—writing is no longer the great creative outlet it once was for me. I recently finished my novel, the one I had been writing in fits and starts for four months. I have completed the first round of edits for Chances, but I can't say that it turned out completely as I had planned. I have several ideas for a new novel, ideas that have been marinating for more than half a year, but I wonder if I start to write it, will it be as good as it seems in my mind's eye? I thought all of my books were good ideas before I wrote them down, and I've enjoyed reading and rereading each of them, though after enough of that everything starts to run together, and it's no small miracle that I ever removed typos from any of them. I hope that I will keep writing for as long as I am able, but I figure there's little-to-no profound knowledge to be gained from reading this blog unless I treat it as either a journal or a travelogue and review the posts on my own in order to glean something. The good news is that writing has been my income the past two years—it was never exactly either a substantial income or a living wage, but it was far more money than I had earned in the previous year of unemployment.

Need to know how much driving this is total ... we have several days and thought we would stay in each place a day or two. Would driving be the best way to sightsee and is there beauty in these places? If this is too much for 8 -9 day trip, then thinking of maybe driving thru NY but don't know what to do or where to go. Have always wanted to see the states of VT, RI, NH & especially Maine. Any suggestions are most welcome - as we have nver been up that far northeast.
Trip to Niagara Falls and then to Maine

I live in the northeast and have never been to Niagra Falls. If you only have 8-9 days, I would concentrate on VT, RI, NH and ME. Actually, it would be tough to narrow down what to see in each state. Also depends on time of year. I live in NH but about an hour from the coast which is a lot different from where I live. And the White Mountains are beautiful, too. We love VT because so much of it is still rural.
Report Abuse
After a day or two in Niagara, its very easy to drive across New York to New England where you could loop through the other states for almost a full week... if you are not a driver, consider a guided tour via bus....
Report Abuse
Niagara Falls is definitely an outlier to New England. It is much better paired with a trip to Toronto - only about an hour from the Falls - and you have to go to the Canadian side to see/do much anyway.
If I were you I would make a choice to either 1) see a couple of parts of New England - you cna;t cover it all in that time - or 2) do Niagara Falls and Toronto. (It's a pity to drive such a long distance and miss such a wonderful city.)
Report Abuse
This really is TWO trips in one. Niagara Falls is the "Midwest" in the eyes of most East Coasters.
I would start with two nights in Niagara Falls, Canada and then get an early start and:
Drive to Vermont - stay 1-2 nights. This will be the one LONG driving day - 8-10 hours depending on stops for lunch, etc. but there is really nothing worth taking your very limited time for between Niagara Falls and the Northeast states.
Drive to New Hampshire - stay 1-2 nights
Drive to Maine - stay 4-6 nights depending on how long previous stops were.
(RI is too much of a detour for a 7-8 night trip that includes Niagara Falls, IMO)
Report Abuse
Niagara Falls is way far west. I would not combine it with a New England trip. Even from Syracuse, its a good ways west. I would combine a trip to Niagara Falls with a trip to the Finger Lakes region of New York. It's really beautiful. For New England, its still New York but nearby, make sure you see the Adirondacks. As much as I love the White Mountains of New Hampshire, I like the Adirondacks even better, especially the Lake Placid area. I liked Vermont a lot ,very pasture like with rolling mountains. Of the New England states, Vermont and Maine are my favorite and IMO the highlights of New England. Maine has the coast and Acadia NP, which is not to be missed, but the real gem is if you go inland to Moosehead Lake and/or Baxter SP. That's really really pretty. Again, I really do like the White Mountains in NH , but this is another area I liked even better.

Wayback Wednesday – Jake Kline Bat Update
Aug 21, 2013, 1:52 PM EST
A new weekly Irish UNDerground feature revolves around the @NDSportsBlogger taking time away from his desk to go find an interesting artifact around the University of Notre Dame Athletic Department, enjoy…
Past "Wayback Wednesday's" -
Moose's Congressional Photo
Coach Leahy's Football
2008 Hawaii Bowl Trophy
In the past we have presented new artifacts that have been found in the archives of Notre Dame athletics. Today we are doing something different. We are re-presenting a past "Wayback Wednesday" with updated information that has been provided to us through former monogram winners and Notre Dame students. The updated information in this post is in bold font.
In today's "Wayback Wednesday" we turn to the Irish baseball squad and former head coach Jake Kline.
Kline held the head job at Notre Dame from 1934-1975 (and was the freshman coach from 1931-35) after playing and earning three monograms with the Irish in his playing days in the 1910's. While at Notre Dame Kline compiled a 558-449-5 record over the 42 years at the helm of the Fighting Irish. Aside from having the field at Eck Stadium named after him, Kline was also voted into the College Baseball Hall of Fame in 1968.
Now that we have dispensed with the background of coach Jake Kline, let me turn your attention to 1957. The year 1957 was a banner year for Notre Dame baseball. Kline's team earned Notre Dame's first trip to Omaha (Neb.) for the College World Series after winning district 4 (Midwest region) with a 3-1 record.
The Irish would go 2-2 in the College World Series, finishing in a tie for third place. It would be 45 years before the Irish returned to Omaha when the 2002 team made their miraculous run through the NCAA Championship Regionals.
Today for "Wayback Wednesday" we are looking at a Hanna Batrite Northern Ash baseball bat with Jake Kline inscription.
In the first release of the "Wayback Wednesday – Jake Kline's Bat" I led everyone to believe that the bat was possibly presented to Coach Kline. Thanks to conversations and the gratitude of others, I have been able to better understand where this bat came from.
After speaking with former assistant baseball coach and Notre Dame baseball captain, John Counsell, he believed the bat might have been in honor of Jim Morris, a member of the 1957 College World Series team. Morris, an infielder, established the College World Series record for batting average (10-14, .714), a record that stands to this day. Additionally, Counsell believed that Coach Kline bought a plethora of these bats for the team to use and for marketing purposes in that time.
Without a definitive answer on the bat, I kept searching.
I finally hit pay dirt one morning when I received an email from 1959 Notre Dame graduate Joe Mulligan. Mulligan provided me a few leads on the history of the bat, one of which was Charles Lennon.
Reaching out to Charles (Chuck) Lennon was simple as Mulligan provided me with his information. Lennon, a 1961 graduate of Notre Dame, still lived close to Notre Dame and called me out of the blue to say that he was on campus. 15-minutes later I was standing face-to-face with Lennon.
It only took two seconds for me to know that he had seen this bat before. His eyes lit up as I handed over the 56-year old bat.
Our conversation lasted only five minutes, but the information he provided was astounding.
Coach Kline actually created the cup bat idea according to Lennon. The bat that I presented him had a smaller barrel than the bats of today and this was the type of bat the Irish used in 1957. The Hanna Batrite bat was actually called the Hanna Batrite, so instead of a bat you would ask for "a Hanna Batrite."
In summation Lennon claimed that the 1957 Northern Ash Hanna Batrite bat with the Jake Kline insignia was a unique bat. The smaller barrel, the cupped end and the fact that the Irish used them in 1957 was astounding.
The Hanna Batrite bat company from Athens, Ga., is not well known anymore because the factory and the company closed down over 40 years ago due to a fire at the main building. Sources I have read said that most of the information and records of the company were lost in the fire.
If you can provide anymore information regarding this 'Wayback Wednesday' Artifact, please email Aaron Horvath at email@example.com or on twitter at @NDSportsBlogger

I can be naive about the modern world. It's a failing, I know. But I just didn't think to ask the clerk if the toaster would beep. My questions in the appliance store had mostly to do with whether it would make toast, which it does, quite nicely, actually. It's just that the first time my multigrain turned a crisp, perfect brown, I thought there was a reversing backhoe in the kitchen. I'd always thought that the sound of toast popping was a pretty good signal that the toast was popping.
I was thinking about my new toaster as I was walking back from the Art Gallery of Ontario where I had just taken in the Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller multimedia installation Lost in the Memory Palace (at the AGO until Aug. 18). I've been a fan of Cardiff's ever since, some years ago, I stumbled into her The Forty Part Motet during a visit to Stratford.
This same haunting installation is also at the AGO now, in the Henry Moore room, which is a great place for it to be heard. If you haven't experienced Motet, here's a word of advice that actually is one word: Go.
But as I was walking back from the AGO, contemplating the environments conjured in Lost in the Memory Palace, I found myself thinking about my toaster. As a matter of fact, I was thinking about my toaster (and about how evocative the sounds of Memory Palace are) just as I walked under the marquee of a Home Hardware store on College St.
Most hardware stores don't have marquees, but this particular franchise is the site of the late-lamented Cinema Lumière, and what Home Hardware has done is place speakers in the overhanging marquee. That way everyone, whether or not they have any interest in garden mulch or barbecue cleaner or cordless drills, can hear ads for Home Hardware as they pass. On the sidewalk. In a public space.
Of course, the Home Hardware ads are largely unintelligible. There's too much ambient noise for them to be anything more than irritating static. They are just more unnecessary noise added to the many unnecessary noises of contemporary urban life. Like the blare of outdoor ads at gas pumps. Like the crappy music played while you wait to see what comes first, doomsday or the next available operator. Like the Monsieur Hulot-like loudspeakers by which the TTC communicates with its customers. Like car alarms. Like leaf blowers. Like the wit and volume of 3 a.m. drunks. Like toasters that beep.
The achievement of Cardiff and Miller is the creation of environments as strange and unfamiliar as they are strange and familiar, like dreams. And the noises of these "places" reveal how attuned we are to sound: to the click of a slide projector, to rain on the roof, to the whir of menacing looking machines, to voices, to breathing, to the pop of a stylus on an old vinyl record.
In a famous scene in an early season of Mad Men, the Draper family enjoyed a roadside picnic and then got back in their car: leaving their scattered litter and their tossed empties on the grass where they'd just eaten. It's hard for me to believe that people — even people in the 1950s — were really this oblivious to their own mess. But Cardiff and Miller have reminded me how attuned we are to the most subtle sounds.
And my toaster made me realize how oblivious, how indifferent and how beleaguered we are by the garbage that surrounds us all the time.

Costa Rica
The Geography department continue in their quest to "Go Out and Find Out" with a recent trip to Costa Rica. The group are pictured on the zip-wire activity that led them on a trail viewing rivers and the local forests.
Year 7 Indoor Athletics
Well done to our Year 7 athletes who competed against the other Hyndburn and Ribble Valley schools at Hyndburn Sports Centre. Both the girls' and boys' teams won their respective competitions and go on to the regional finals.
Our GCSE Spanish students are pictured above with the cast of 'Fuera', a play which was delivered entirely in Spanish by native speakers. The main theme was the love/hate relationship between an older sister and her annoying little brother; a theme many of the students watching could relate to! It was an excellent experience for students to practise their listening skills and the humorous and relevant storyline meant it was enjoyed by all.

Moderate Drinker Or Alcoholic? Many Americans Fall In Between
A lot of us make the assumption that there are two kinds of drinkers: moderate drinkers who have a glass of wine with dinner, and on the other end of the spectrum, alcoholics.

More than two dozen members of the Republican Governors Association gathered this week in Boca Raton, Fla., to talk about policy issues and bask in their success after the recent midterm election.

Poor Doggie!
by GiggleSugar 9 Reactions 0 Shares Print
This poor dog's only crime is that he likes to eat food on the dinner table. (OK, that is pretty annoying, but still.) So his owners brought in a trainer to teach Stains (yes, that's his name) how to exhibit some self-control. Basically, Stains goes into a zombie-like hypnotic trance when faced with a plate of cupcakes. I know that expression well: It's the same look I get when face-to-face with a plate of nachos or some Southern fried chicken. Poor Stains. With a name like that, it's no wonder you have issues!

Schubert v. Krell: The dreaded one percent

Winston-Salem area home sales up 10% in September

- Email | Twitter | Google+ | LinkedIn
The number of existing homes sold in the greater Winston-Salem area last month reached 442 units, up 10 percent from 399 during September 2011, according to a report from the Winston-Salem Regional Association of Realtors.
The increase follows a 20 percent jump in home sales in August.
The association said the September figures mark the highest sales volume for the month since September 2008. Nearly 500 units were sold then, the year the housing slowdown began in the local market, according to a press release.
"Existing home sales continue their slow and steady rebound in our market," Byron East, president of the WSRAR, said in a statement. "What we did not anticipate was a marked increase in sales volume to 2008 levels. Steady home prices and a return to normalcy in the lending markets all helped fuel this increase in sales."
However, prices continue to remain flat. The average sale price for a home sold by association members was $153,730 last month, a 3 percent decline from $158,751 in September 2011.

Beetroot, gorgonzola and walnut make a stunning vegetarian snack or starter.
Quickly pan fry wedges of cooked beetroot in olive oil. Add the sugar and balsamic and let it caramelize until the beetroot is glazed. Lightly crush the walnuts in your hands and add them to the pan with a good twist of black pepper.
Drizzle some toasted bread with olive oil, top with a slice of gorgonzola (or alternatively crumble on top) and top with the caramelised walnut beetroot mixture. Serve with some watercress.
» Metric Converter
Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris are the best wines to pair with Balsamic-glazed Beetroot with Gorgonzola and Walnut Toast.

The End of the Electoral College: Later, If Not Sooner?
Last week, I sketched out the scenarios under which an interstate compact could replace the Electoral College with a national popular vote system in time ...
Last week, I sketched out the scenarios under which an interstate compact could replace the Electoral College with a national popular vote system in time for the 2012 presidential election. My prognosis: The chances of enough states approving the compact are relatively gloomy.
But, over the long-term, the plan might have a better chance. Nothing in the text of the agreement creates any deadline for states to enter into the deal.
The inertia of the law-making process (you have to get two legislative bodies and a governor to agree) makes it difficult for any radical idea to win approval in many states quickly. That same inertia, however, makes it unlikely that states will rescind their approval of the pact once they've given it.
As a result, I can imagine a slow march to ratification over a couple of decades. I can also imagine the plan going dormant for a while if interest in the topic fades -- until the next time the popular vote and Electoral College diverge.

|No he doesn't
First off, Hoke has made over 12 million in his time here. After taxes and agents, he made $6 million in 4 years. Let's say he lives fairly large, but not excessive, by suburban michigan standards - at most he spent $1 million. Guy has $3 million banked, and that's assuming that he didn't save a penny before this job. He is fine.

Beat Ohio, hire Harbaugh, keep Beilein forever, go blue.

Of Course. But, this is mgoblog, fergodsake, so it had to be said.

Ugh do we really want some coach who can't even make the playoffs?!?!
|19 hours 36 min ago
|Same thought
But are they really going to fire Jimmy? Just seems unlikely at this point but who the hell knows how many people he has pissed off.
|19 hours 39 min ago
I know a coach who was specifically hired because he was willing to be subservient to an egomaniacal boss and who is good at winning 5 games. Hell, I think he even knows the directions by which to walk from his current locale to California.
|19 hours 53 min ago
I guess only schiano, but I would out in this same category any coach at a lower tiered school that will be going to a noname bowl, as they could easily leave at any time.
|20 hours 7 min ago
I forgot about that. I guess Hoke will likely be here until 12/9 or 10, as it would be pretty awkward otherwise. I guess that's ok as it minimizes the time between his firing and the possible hiring of his replacement. Still, it would make for a really tough 10-14 days for all of us super fans.

The lions win couple with the 49ers loss makes it unlikely that the 49ers make the playoffs. Would Jim speak before the end of the season? Probably off the record, at a minimum.

Why is our coach wearing a 49ers shirt?

Here's my thoughts:
|1 day 8 hours ago
|Rooting interest
If there is even a chance of him coming, we really need to see the Lions win and SF lose. Helps us a bit with the timing.
|2 days 6 hours ago
So you want Hoke to fire Hackett ("I just hope he doesn't fire me" style), hire Hecklinski to be head coach and then promote himself to AD?
|2 days 9 hours ago
|good advice
All joking aside, if the AD does those two things, he will have a very smooth and happy tenure.
#2 is easy. As to #1, if Harbaugh isn't interested, it gets a bit tougher.
|2 days 9 hours ago
I assume that you are not referring to the trend line in our basketball program (which is kind of straight up the past few years) and instead are referring to our football program (straight down for 7 years)?
|2 days 9 hours ago

|I disagree
I don't know why everyone seems to be against Hackett. We had one business CEO as AD and he did terribly. That does not remotely mean that every other former business CEO will also be a bad AD. Brandon was not a bad AD because he was a former CEO - he was a bad AD because he was an asshole, who was hell bent on reshaping the Michigan football experience while at the same time milking the students and season ticket holders for every possible penny.
Both Schlissel and Hackett have stated that his job - interim or permanent - is the mend fences with the various "constituants" of Michigan football, and to balance progress and modern needs with preservation of traditions. With than mandate, I expect that Hackett (or just about anyone with a functioning brain and a non-DB sized ego) will listen to the fans do a good job of undoing some of BRandon's damage. It isn't hard, and it wouldn't cost much to, for example, (1) cut back on the amount of piped in music, (2) not have a giant noodle promotion at the Big House, (3) not do silly skywriting stunts, and (4) not petition for fireworks and drones at games. As to the milking of students, I think before leaving, Brandon already intruduced a ticket price reduction plan, so that is somewhat addressed.
Also, many were concerned that having an interim AD would hurt out coaching search. Well, if Hackett is permanent, that is no longer a concern.
So, serious question: what is the concern here?

Man, those were good times!

It's my fault. I need to coach you better.
|3 days 10 hours ago
|No disagreement
I think that the concern that you point out is very real and it may be the primary concern. But the concern that I point out I think is also a factor for many. So many fans that I encounter don't want to play the spoiler for the Hoke reason.

|The Game
I said this in another thread yesterday but there is less excitement for the Game this year than even 2008. Why? I suspect that aside from the inevitability of a loss, the meaninglessness of the result for our season and the general malaise, the main reason is that so many of our fans are afraid to hope for a victory as that might - in our dysfunctional AD - be a basis upon which Hoke is saved. I know that logic dictates that Hoke is gone regardless. But, as Brian has noted, logic isn't always the basis upon which our administration operates. Otherwise, Hoke never would have been hired in the first place. Otherwise, we would be one-month into the search for an AD and be close to having that wrapped up. Otherwise, Hoke would have likely been given the Earl Bruce / Muschamp treatment already.
|4 days 2 hours ago
|but . . .
I also don't see a win saving Hoke, but again, that's because we are viewing the question through the lens of logic. We have no idea what the hell is going on behind the doors of the Fort. Hell, Schlissel may be so happy with the 100% graduation rate, that he is pressing to keep Hoke. Perhaps Hackett is part of the former players group that is also enamored with Hoke? We just don't know. And if that is the case, it is hard to say so affirmatiely that a win will absolutely not save Hoke.
|4 days 3 hours ago
I think that the reasons that there are no posts about the OSU game are:
1. this season has been so bad that nobody really cares about the actual football. It is all about the CC at this point, as a win or loss this weekend doesn't do much to change the trajectory of our program;
2. Everyone pretty much assumes that we are going to get slaughtered;
3. WHile most posters will not admit it, many are actually hoping that we do not pull off the miracle upset as it could save Hoke's job. Unlikely, if you apply logic, but as Brian has noted, attempting to apply logic to the functioning of our AD at this point seems . . .illogical.
|4 days 3 hours ago
|totally agree
I could not agree with this more. I love Michigan and Michigan football, but I am just not a fan of this team. They don't play with any passion. Other than Devin G and Jake Ryan, I just don't feel strongly about most of the players on this team at this point. I too loved the 2008 team, including our QB (Sheridan, who was probably the least talented M QB ever). But this team just bothers me for some reason. I have met a number of fans who feel the same way.
Note: During the late Richrod years, you were probably the poster with whom I most disagreed on a daily basis. This time around, I am surprised by how much I agree with every one of your posts.
|4 days 3 hours ago
|Moving on
I think that your comment hits on a very important point. I know that mid-season firings are not the norm, and that many people thing that there is no advantage conferred by firing Hoke midseason, but the "moving on" factor is important from a fan perspective.
I never rooted against Michigan, even during the darkest days of the RR era. But, as this tire fire of a season has progressed, I have found myself actively rooting for losses in these meaningless games, to snuff out any possibility that Hoke comes back and unintentionally inflicts further damage on our program.
This weekend is Ohio State. Our biggest rival. I am going to try may hardest to root for Michigan with everything that I have, but I know that a part of me will fear that every touchdown makes it slightly more likely that Hoke returns. If we play well by some miracle, I know that a part of me is going to worry, and not be excited.
If Hoke is given the Earl Bruce before the game, every fan out there - and, while most will not admit it for fear of being negged, there are many who think this way - will be able to root for Michigan anf Hoke 100%, and not feel conflicted.
|5 days 18 hours ago
|Either way
I would keep it. I also liked the Victors Walk, which I believe was a RichRod thing.

I hate the legacy jersey thing. That needs to go. I also don't give a crap what we call Ohio /OSU/ Ohio State as long as we beat them 51% of the time.

|Why not?
Serious question. Why is this a bad things to post. It relates to one of our former player, is pretty clearly labeled and is actually an interesting topic for disussion, specifically the financial woes of so many young, high-earning athletes. It is obviously not a happy post, but then again neither are most posts these days.

No politics (and I consider racial profiling to be a political issue). I am not going to respond to the substance of your post as it would turn this whole thread into a disaster, but how about we leave that issue for debate on Fox News, MSNBC and other political leaning outlets.

Hamilton Heights' Lady Hawks have landed two players on the National Association of Christian Athletes All-America basketball team.
Kamile Kasciunaite, a junior from Lithuania, and Victoria Monyei, a junior from Nigeria, were named to the All-America team after leading the Lady Hawks to the 2013-14 Division 2 NACA national championship at Fort Bluff in Dayton, Tenn.
The Hawks, who finished fourth in the tournament, also had two players earn spots on the Division I All-America boys' team – senior guard Aleksa Jugovic, of Serbia, and sophomore post Abdulhakim Ado, of Nigeria.
Hamilton Heights' girls finished with an 18-14 record while the boys closed the season at 34-7.
Kasciunaite averaged 7.2 points and 3.2 rebounds per game this season.
Monyei averaged 4.1 points and 2.8 rebounds per game.
"Victoria is one of the hardest working young ladies I have ever coached," Lady Hawks coach Keisha Hunt said. "She is quick, a strong defensive stopper and very coachable. Kamile is a versatile player. She can play multiple positions, scoring inside and out. Both Kamile and Victoria are key members of the Lady Hawks' basketball program."
Kasciunaite and Monyei earned national all-tournament team honors and Monyei was named the most valuable player in the tourney.
Jugovic, who signed with Tennessee Tech University, was the trigger to almost everything the Hawks did offensively. The 6-foot-3-inch point guard led the Hawks with 14.5 points, 5.9 assists and 1.4 steals per game. He made just 3.3 turnovers a game.
Jugovic and Ado were named to the national all-tournament team.
"The way that Aleksa approaches the game is what allowed him to be successful this year and will allow him to have continued success in the future," Hawks coach Zach Ferrell said. "He is a relentless worker and seeks perfection every time he steps on the floor. He will be a great addition to the Tennessee Tech program."
Ado, a 6-11 sophomore post, already has a scholarship offer from Vanderbilt and dominated the lane against any and all opponents.
Ado scored 9.8 points, 11.8 rebounds and 7.3 blocked shots each time out.
"Abdul is a dominant force inside," Ferrell said. "His rebounding and shot-blocking ability are at an extremely high level right now. He has tremendous timing and athletic ability that allow him to dominate games on the defensive end. He has a great work ethic and is improving every day and is always looking to take his gamer to another level."
