text: Breitbart News Sunday: On Immigration, Islamization, US Must Learn from Britain's Mistakes Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 13 Jan 2014 post a comment If Americans do not learn the lessons from across the pond on immigration and Islamization, they may soon be regretfully dealing with the same consequences as Britain. On Breitbart News Sunday on Sirius XM Patriot channel 125 with Breitbart News Executive Chairman and host Stephen K. Bannon, Raheem Kassam, the founder of Trending Central, one of the UK's fastest-growing conservative news sites, called into the show from England and spoke from experience on both issues. Kassam, whose writings Bannon said Breitbart.com readers would see a lot more of in the coming year, is a staunch conservative and no moderate when it comes to politics; however, he urged moderate Muslims in Britain to start standing up to the extremists. He called out the British government and the press as well for not doing so. Kassam said Islamists have run sex gangs and advocated the beheading of soldiers while "pretending to represent a majority of British Muslims," but the nation does not have "moderate British Muslims speaking up against extremists." He also noted that Islamists are making major inroads at "the university level and people are afraid to confront that," and because the moderates are silent, it is easier for politicians to "stir up anti-Muslim" sentiment. Describing his personal background, Kassam said he was raised in a "in a liberal sect of Islam in a Muslim family," so he was not privy to the strict and fundamentalist aspects of Islam. Nevertheless, he has seen threats come in "thick and fast" against moderates who dare challenge the Islamists. He said that for many moderate Muslims in England it is "highly inconvenient to be called 'Uncle Tom,'" and he noted that he himself is considered an "apostate." He adds that the "penalty for apostasy is death by the strictest definition" of Islam. Still, Kassam said it will be essential for moderate Muslims and British citizens to not let Islamists hijack the religion and culture. When it came to immigration, Kassam noted how wrong the British government under Tony Blair and Jack Straw was when it loosened immigration laws, expecting net migration to Britain from Eastern Europe would be about 13,000 people per year. Kassam said that they merely "got it wrong by a factor of ten," as more than 130,000 people a year have come into Britain. He said the immigration issue is more about jobs and wages, as immigrants put a heavy strain on public services like transportation and the National Health Service. In fact, Kassam said new immigrants have strained Britain's health system so much that the nation may now charge people for socialized health care. Though Britain is vilified by other European nations for starting to consider tougher measures against unchecked immigration, he said, most people in Britain do not "give a hoot what the French or Spanish," or bureaucrats in Brussels, think because Britain is a net contributor to the European Union. Kassam also discussed how the British media, much like the American media, just did not want to discuss the potential consequences of unchecked immigration. He said the BBC is the "last place to look" because the network has admitted to having a "liberal bias" on issues like immigration, Islamization, and climate change. However, even the political editor of the liberal network, as Breitbart's Frances Martel reported, conceded that the network made "terrible mistakes" by failing to allow a fair debate to occur about the potential consequences of unchecked immigration. Kassam also recently penned a piece for Breitbart News examining the BBC's monumental dereliction of duty on the immigration issue in more detail. Kassam also noted that the Independence Party, the British equivalent of the Tea Party, has been gaining traction in local elections because working-class citizens in Britain, even if they may lean center-left, are realizing the enormous strain the massive number of immigrants is causing in their everyday lives. In America, Pamela Geller wrote a thorough report for Breitbart News documenting the Islamization of America in 2013 that the mainstream press is ignoring or too afraid to discuss. On the immigration front, big-business interests and politicians on both sides of the aisle in the permanent political class have been doubling down to get amnesty for illegal immigrants and the corporations that illicitly hired them passed. The mainstream press and amnesty advocates, much like their counterparts in Britain, have tried to shut down conservatives who oppose this legislation, which the Congressional Budget Office determined would lower the wages of working class Americans, by implying they are racists and bigots. The strain that massive immigration may have on America's already strained public services and budgets is rarely discussed. However, as Kassam discussed with Bannon, these are issues Americans need to take more seriously if they do not want to face the same predicament Britain is facing.

Police officers in the Valley could soon gain access to top secret information. The Department of Homeland Security is making classified information available to local departments.
Homeland Security wants local cops to know what's going on. This means law enforcement from all over the Valley could soon be working closer with the DEA and FBI.
The Department of Homeland Security wants to share classified information. Hidalgo County Sheriff Lupe Trevino was cleared for the secret access three years ago. He says the government checked and rechecked every part of his life.
"I think the federal government knows more about me than I know about myself," says Trevino.
He says the extensive background check should ease concerns about classified information falling into corrupt hands.
"Us going rogue is very unlikely," says Trevino.
Eight investigators in the department have top secret access. It's a two-way avenue of information flowing from the feds to the locals. Trevino says they give as much as they receive.
His investigators used their top-level clearance when a sheriff's deputy was shot last October. That intelligence helped them connect the shooters to the Gulf Cartel. Trevino says they also gave the feds a solid case of spillover violence.
"To tell you the truth, I think we gave them more than they gave us," says Trevino.
Trevino says it helps beyond investigations. High-level clearance gives him a chance to talk with high-level leaders like Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. That access wasn't granted to smaller department chiefs in the Valley when Napolitano visited last month.
Napolitano issued the new directive for local departments earlier this month.

I loved everything. The young man at the service desk was great. He was so friendly helpful and funny. He made us feel welcomed the minute we entered the building. He is 5 star and that made our stay great. The rooms were so clean and nice.
The breakfast was ok but could use a little improvement.
Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. On a quieter side of town. Had a normal breakfast. Very nice hotel for the price.
When we checked in we had to wait a while on the clerk but he was very helpful and nice. I think they were just understaffed that night.
The appearance, cleanliness and overall presentation of the place is very good.
The girl at the desk when I checked in had on a dirty shirt -- you could see spots on the front -- and her hair was not clean looking and needed fixing.
Quality of management. The room, the breakfast.
In an ideal location for everything in the city. Vern the guy at check in was really friendly,as were the other staff but don't recall their names. Everything was nice and well kept Good breakfast !
Nothing !
We wanted to get away from work for couple of days so we stayed at Comfort Inn and it was great. The pool was good, the rooms were clean, the staff was good, nothing to complain about.
The lady that checked us in was so nice. When I told her I hadn't been feeling well and this was our first visit to Amarrilo she up graded our room for free. I call that customer friendly. Thanks for a lovely visit.
Welcoming staff. Clean, bright, modern. Was perfect for what we needed - a sleeping spot during a cross-country trip, Would suit longer stays as well.
Pool area was nice. Laundry area covinent.
Room needs updating and kinda musty and gloomy feeling.
Cleanliness and Staff
Hard to get to
The young man working when we checked out was very nice and professional
Interior was not very clean
Our room was very comfortable. We loved the fact it had two sinks. The beds were wonderful and the staff was friendly and helpful.
It was a little difficult to find the entrance to the motel after dark.
Good value for the money. We arrived around midnight and the night desk staff was bright and friendly. We put a request for a nonsmoking room with our reservation due to medical issues and hotel staff had made sure they held not only a nonsmoking room for us but that we were also far away from the smoking rooms.
It was a little hard to find. There is no drive from the main road you exit on. you have to get on the frontage road which looks like you will be getting back on the expressway and then the hotel is behind another business. A majority of the parking is in a lot behind the hotel which makes a long trip carrying luggage.
Two people in our group, physically could not walk great distances. This information was shared with the desk clerk. We were told to park at the end of the building and the elevator was around the corner. We struggled to walk this distance. Upon riding the elevator and reaching the second floor, we discovered the rooms were all the way to the end of the building. This was a physical hardship on the two people. We got back on the elevator and returned to the front desk. We asked if we could be moved closer and she said no. We could have been informed of the walking distance and been able to make a decision before checking in. Also, didn't understand why we would have been directed to end of building when clearly there was parking for handicap people close to the front entrance. I'm truly disappointed in the service extended by this desk clerk. I asked to be refunded and left the property. We went twenty miles out of our way to stay at this property. We have stayed at this property before and enjoyed every minute of it. However this person judged us to be physically able to walk.( Two of us has stage IV breast cancer, which had spread to the lungs making walking and breathing extremely difficult). I'm truly disappointed in this employees total disregard for our condition. Even though our previous stays have been wonderful, this treatment has left us disappointed in this property.
Staff were helpful, breakfast included was a bonus. Very comfy and not far from Cadillac Ranch.
Wish the pool had been outside
Everything was very good
Friendliness of staff.
The room was immaculate. The pool was perfect temp. The hot tub size was great. Pool area was very clean. Breakfast was plentiful with various options.
Pool hours. It's far enough from things to be open any time. I like an early dip in the pool before I leave.
It was clean and the breakfast was the best ever. Of all the places we stayed going driving to Florida this was the best.
Hard to find for us.
Access to and from the freeway is not easy.
I asked for assistance in getting a room on the ground floor due to my mobility problem and was immediately relocated because of the provided excellent results with Sharon's assistance. I really appreciate that one can depend on change if necessary without any fuss or feathers flying! Thanks again Sharon! "I'll be back"
Clean large rooms and good parking. Close to the highway but get a room at the back as this is nice and quiet
Good value for the money. Clean. Adequate hot breakfast. All amenities advertised were present and in working order.
Bed was a little too firm.

It's already been a busy Spring Break for local police.
Panama City Beach police officials released these numbers for their own department, as well as the Highway Patrol and the state Department of Alcoholic Beverage and Tobacco.
During the first 3-weeks of Spring Break, beach officers answered more than 3,300 calls for service, arrested 440-people, issued 886 traffic tickets, worked more than 200-traffic crashes, and answered 152 medical calls.
The numbers for the Florida Highway Patrol and Beverage Agents are just for the 2-week period from March 6th through March 19th.
State Troopers issued almost 3-thousand traffic tickets and made 15 D-U-I arrests.
State Beverage Agents have handled the bulk of the case against underage drinkers. They've made cases against 12-hundred-38 minors in-possession of alcohol, charged a total of 13-hundred people on an assortment of charges and arrested just under 13-hundred.
With 2-more weeks of spring break left, those numbers will go up.

Feb. 2 (Bloomberg) -- Naftna Industrija Srbije AD, an oil company controlled by OAO Gazprom Neft, jumped the most since August 2011 after Wood & Co. recommended buying the stock, citing "cheap" valuation relative to peers and growing output.
NIS climbed 6 percent to 614 dinar at the close in Belgrade, the highest level since Dec. 22. Share turnover was more than three times the three-month daily average.
Wood initiated its coverage of NIS with a 12-month price estimate of 972 dinar, or 68 percent above yesterday's close, in a report from Prague-based analyst Robert Rethy. The stock last traded at 3.8 times estimated earnings, compared with 5.5 times for Romania's OMV Petrom SA, 7.8 times for Hungary's Mol Nyrt. and 10 times for Croatia's INA Industrija Nafte DD.
"NIS is producing about 30,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day, up 75 percent since Gazprom Neft took control over and brought in new technology, and speeded up drilling and development," Rethy said. "A major discount to any regional peers" makes NIS "too cheap to ignore," he wrote.

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- A sheriff's deputy and a suspected drunken driver have been injured following a high-speed chase and crash in Milwaukee County.
Sheriff's officials say a deputy tried stopping the driver who was going the wrong way on a major thoroughfare early Tuesday. The driver jumped on Interstate 94 and took off.
Sheriff spokeswoman Fran McLaughlin tells WTMJ radio the driver was going more than 100 miles an hour over all lanes of traffic. The driver got on Highway 41 and crashed into a barrier in the stadium interchange. The deputy in pursuit crashed while trying to avoid some debris.
Both are expected to recover. Authorities say it's the suspect's third drunken driving offense.

"The Fosters": Our favorite #GaydyBunch tweets from "Kids in the Hall"
This week on The Fosters we had sperm donors, not so sober buddies, theft of the BEAUTIFUL KINDLES, fake ID shenanigans, and lesbians telling their already socially challenged daughter how to flirt with boys. It was a festival of awkwardness made funnier by all of your tweets. Here are a few of our favorites.

Officials said a man was taken to the hospital on Thursday for moderate injuries he sustained during his apprehension after reportedly barricading himself in the attic of the St. Bernard Church rectory in Eureka, where Father Eric Freed was found murdered on Jan. 1.
Officers arrived at the scene after a custodian called police at 4:45 a.m. to report the lower door panels of the rectory door had been kicked out. During a search of the rectory, officers could hear footsteps coming from the attic, according to a Eureka Police Department release. They determined that the attic door was barricaded and could not be opened. A perimeter was established, and a K-9 was brought to the scene, the release states.
The suspect, identified as Fortuna resident Sherman Prochnau, 51, initially opened the attic door and began climbing down the ladder, but resisted when officers attempted to take him into custody, according to EPD. After multiple warnings, the K-9 was used to assist in Prochnau's arrest.
The suspect was taken to St. Joseph Hospital, where a syringe and bag of methamphetamine were found on him, the department release states.
Officials said Prochnau will be booked into the Humboldt County jail on suspicion of burglary, resisting arrest and possession of a controlled substance.
"The hospital will determine what his services will be," said EPD Police Services Officer Brittany Kesterson. "Officers still have to interview him, and the case is still under investigation. I do not have a value on the property damage."
Representatives of St. Bernard Church declined to comment.
Redway resident Gary Lee Bullock is accused of forcing his way into the rectory and brutally torturing and murdering Freed, a beloved local priest with a penchant for language who taught at Humboldt State University. Bullock's murder trial is set for Nov. 17.

The opportunity to live a healthy life is a human right. Every Oregonian deserves to live in a safe and healthy place with access to the resources and information they need to actively participate in decisions that affect their wellbeing. Those places are created and protected by public health.
A passion for prevention drives our work. As public health professionals, we educate about nutritious food and physical activity and ensure all Oregonians have access to healthy options where they live, learn, work and play. We inform them about the dangers of tobacco, alcohol and drugs, and teach them how to improve their children's health. We advocate for, and help write the policies that make our streets, buildings, parks, schools and neighborhoods safe and active for everyone regardless of their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation or income status.

CommunityHEALTHADVISORYour resource for information on the benefits of evidence-based policies and programs
Today, public health practitioners are called upon to incorporate evidence in decisionmaking, policy development, and program implementation. This focus is illustrated in Healthy People 2020, which calls for the engagement of "multiple sectors to take actions to strengthen policies and improve practices that are driven by the best available evidence and knowledge." Furthermore, there is a push among funders to support evidence-based programs. And, when evaluating interventions for a specific community, practitioners and policymakers need to know the likely impact of an intervention, how much it will improve health, how much in medical costs will be saved, and the cost of implementing the intervention.
Community Health Advisor provides an answer to these questions. It is an online resource with detailed information about evidence-based policies and programs to reduce tobacco use and increase physical activity in communities.
Health Partners Institute for Education and Research and Partnership for Prevention have introduced this interactive tool, "to help public health leaders, decision-makers, and others who want to reduce smoking and increase physical activity in their communities." The tool generates 30-year national, state and county-level estimates of various measures of health behavior, health impact, and medical care costs. Click here to learn more.

An Amtrak train on the Maple Leaf route, which runs from New York to Toronto. Photo courtesy of Diego3336 via Flickr.
The U.S. Department of Transportation awarded $149.3 million to the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) to upgrade high-speed and intercity passenger rail service on the Empire Corridor. The improvements will increase capacity and reliability, while reducing delays and travel time on several Amtrak routes, including the Empire Service, Lake Shore Limited, Maple Leaf, Adirondack and Ethan Allen Express.A first grant, for $91.2 million, will allow NYSDOT to add a 17-mile second mainline track between the Albany-Rensselaer and Schenectady stations. The existing single track causes significant delays, requiring trains to wait up to 26 minutes for the rail line to clear when another train is traveling in the opposing direction. Construction is expected to begin in late summer 2012.
A second grant, for $58.1 million, will fund track and platform improvements at the Albany-Rensselaer and Schenectady stations, as well as the relocation of signal wires on the Hudson Line, which have been prone to outages. These improvements will result in greater reliability and on-time performance, more flexibility in train schedules and reduced congestion between freight and passenger trains. The Schenectady Station improvements are part of a downtown revitalization program.
Improvements to both stations are expected to begin in late summer 2012.

This was the first Urban Adventure I've participated in and, according to others (and the organizers), this is the most difficult. The clues were VERY hard to decipher and I don't know how anyone could complete it without the help of the internet (a few teams had laptops). Luckily we had an iphone and also placed many calls to a friend, but we were still unable to complete all the clues or collect all the scavenger items. It was a bit stressful, but fun and a great way to learn about the city. The experience, as a whole, was good and I would definitely do it again for another city. The only real downside to the experience was that at the end, other than the winners, we weren't given any sort of souvenir -- a button or sticker or ANYTHING would have been nice especially considering how much we paid to participate. They called down all the winners and started to hand out prizes and it seems that was the signal to the rest of us that it was over. A bit of an anticlimactic ending to the whole thing. lol.

New U.S. auto sales are expected to jump 15% in July from a year earlier, with gains expected to be largest for General Motors Co. (GM) and Toyota Motor Corp. (TM, 7203.TO) among the major manufacturers, according to Edmunds.com.
The online automotive-information provider estimated 1.33 million new cars and trucks will be sold in the U.S. in July, up from 1.15 million last year but falling sequentially from June's total of 1.4 million.
The forecast translates into a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 15.8 million.
Edmunds senior analyst Jessica Caldwell said July's expected sales jump is likely due to strong demand from retail customers, as fleet sales appear low.
Notably, Edmunds is projecting Toyota will report a 21% jump in sales from a year ago, growth that should outpace Ford Motor Co. (F) for the first time since March 2010. Ford is projected to post a 12% increase in sales.
GM's sales are seen rising by 19%, while peer U.S. auto maker Chrysler Group LLC's sales are expected to jump 11%.
Among foreign auto makers, Japanese auto makers Honda Motor Co. (HMC, 7267.TO) and Nissan Motor Co. (NSANY, 7201.TO) are expected to report sales increases of 15% and 18%, respectively. South Korean manufacturer Hyundai Motor Co.'s (HYMLY, 005380.SE) sales are projected to rise 6.6%.
July had 25 selling days in 2013, one more than a year ago but one fewer than in June.

Not my favorite source. Not my favorite book. But anyway...
Not my favorite source. Not my favorite book. But anyway...
Says a lot.
It's a very good blog, with some great front-page content, a terrific owner-operator, and many excellent qualities.
And a really big message board, with a huge and non-discerning membership, which like most large crowds, contains a few really smart people, and a whole lot of mass hysteria and occasional psychosis.
Just look at this thread. I used one word in relation to Beilein -- "lukewarm" -- and see what it has led to here. Not one other word of criticism aimed by me at Beilein, and lots of other praise. And still the sort of freakout that we see in many (again, not all) of the comments and the up/down votes.
I would say he's exaggerating a little, but he's not 100% wrong.
Yes he is.
One man's opinion!
This is just annoying
Jack Daniels, always the voice of reason in my world. +1
The coaches... At what point do we say John Beilein is the best coach in Michigan history? Would it be after a NC win?
As for Jalen's comments, I just hope they don't hurt recruiting moving forward. I'm pretty sure we honored him a couple years ago, right? I don't like how he pushed his way into the locker rooms to be with the players after the NC game... Didn't like that at all. Little hypocrisy by Jalen, and he should be humble and let M honor him on their own terms. If I'm the Athletic Dept now I'm LESS enthusiastic about honoring him because it makes it just look like Michigan is doing whatever Jalen Rose says...
I'll sit down with Jalen anytime and argue that Dave Strack was Michigan's best basketball coach. The Cazzie Russell back-to-back NCAA teams. Building the core of the program that led to the Johnny Orr (Strack's groomed assistant) era, when Orr was Michigan's winningest coach.
perspective, but Beilein has already dwarfed all of those guys with his career. Open your eyes--amazing things are happening at Crisler. And it's the prettiest brand of bball in the country.
|Dave Strack
|3 Big Ten Conference Championships (1964, 1965, 1966), 2 NCAA Regional Championships (1964, 1965)
|Johnny Orr
|2 Big Ten Conference Championships (1974, 1977), 1976 NCAA Regional Championship
|Bill Frieder
|1984 National Invitation Tournament Championship, 2 Big Ten Conference Championships (1985, 1986)
|Steve Fisher
|1989 NCAA Tournament Championship, 3 NCAA Regional Championships (1989, 1992*, 1993*), 1997 National Invitation Tournament Championship
|Brian Ellerbe
|1998 Big Ten Tournament Championship
|Tommy Amaker
|2004 National Invitation Tournament Championship
|John Beilein
|2012 Big Ten Conference Championship, 2013 NCAA Regional Championship
on his way. In the process of midgeting, let's say.
I don't consider the 1989 NCAA Championship "his".
Other than the great players he recruited, he did nothing with them in terms of actually winning a championship of some kind.
Also, give Dave Strack the credit for Michigan's best recruiting class ever: the class of 1966--Cazzie Russell, John Clawson, Oliver Darden, Jim Myers, John Thompson.
Whoever the best coach in Michigan history is, it sure as hell isn't Steve Fisher. Sorry, Jalen, but the bad counts along with the good. Same goes for you and everyone else who contributed to the decimation of the Michigan basketball program.
May not have been the best coach but he was pretty damned good and still is!
He knows plenty about coaching basketball, he might well be the best coach ever at SDSU, but he should go down as the worst coach ever at Michigan. Imo, he's the person most culpable for the Ed Martin scandal, certainly much more so than Chris Webber. On top of that, he's the guy who brought Ellerbe to AA.
...to label Fisher as "the person most culpable for the Ed Martin scandal" since Ed was around since the Frieder days and there was a lot of raised eyebrows about Michigan recruiting during the '80s. Ask Georgetown fans from that era about Rumeal Robinson, who went to the same HS as Patrick Ewing and was a Hoya lock until the last minute. Sean Higgins's journey to Michigan wasn't exactly a beacon of virtue, either.
Frieder's lead recruiter?
That's the entire period Ed Martin was supposedly around the program. I've never heard anyone say who first got Martin involved. Fisher may not have been the only coach involved, but I don't have reason to accuse Frieder or anyone else. Fisher did more than look the other way, too. I can't forget that he forged Perry Watson's initials in requesting passes for Ed Martin.
Frieder was in charge. Isn't that enough?
I don't see why it's necessary to choose just one guy for all the blame here. I don't doubt that Fisher had primary responsbility for Martin but I don't see why that exonerates Frieder. There was a lot wrong with the Michigan program well before it metastasized in the Taylor/Traylor years.
it was worse than decimation.
this is not helpful to the program.
Coach Beilein promotes a great family atmosphere among the team. If Jalen has something else in his own bloated head, that's his fault. I think Jalen is about a decade late.
OK, Jalen. Wasn't that Steve Fisher at the final four cheering Michigan on? Also, You?? And I've seen JImmy KIng at Crisler, too.
My favorite topic on this board. Gift that keeps on giving.
I feel like, if my account ever gets banned, it will be in a fab five thread.
Jalen, you know it better than anyone "the team, the team, the team"!
Jalen needs to accept that the Fab Five were a cultural phenomenon that won a lot of games but ultimately left a huge black eye on the program.
Now I tend to end up cringing when they're in the news. Everything with Rose and Webber seems to be about Rose and Webber. To imply that MSU is doing well in football* because Fisher and Webber (?) aren't around the program is absurd.
Let it go, Jalen. Summer is over. The harvest has passed.
*That's what he means by evening the playing field, right?
I read a similar article on MLive. Basically, he wants to see some Fab Five memorabilia and recognition in Crisler.
Honestly, I wouldn't have a problem with it. I understand why the university has been hesitant on how to deal with a black eye, but it would be smart to celebrate what they did, both good and bad, for the program and college basketball.
I don't have a problem with that idea either, but Jalen should make that point to Dave Brandon and the new President. I'm positive he has that kind of access. You don't air your dirty laundry in a public forum.
How about some 1989 and prior memorabilia instead? There hasn't ever been a film or a book documenting the story of Michigan Basketball.
I want stories about the Strack days or Orr era. I want to see some artifacts from Yost Field House.
The mlive story referred to memorabilia to Cazzie, the 89 team and Trey Burke. I'd be fine with them putting up more on the 89 team and Orr. 89 team is way overshadowed in my opinion. Still doesn't mean you can't tell the story of the Fab Five.
part of the subtext here is that there was an opening last year and the admin didn't grab it--in fact, it went conspicuously unaddressed. So once again the team is on the rise and Jalen's feeling left out, and lashes out. . .
Really hate his timing here, and am bothered that this gets pointed at Beilein. But not terribly surprised. These guys have nudged Webber, and they have nudged Brandon, and they are still out in the cold; I think that that would hurt.
Rose, Jackson, Howard, and King can be around Michigan as much as they want, can't they? This isn't meant as a rhetorical question, btw. I'm genuinely confused by the notion that they're out in the cold.
back into the fold and acknowledgement of their achievement. Yeah, they can come to games. But that's quite different from being invited to dinners, to talk to the team.
Yes, they are all welcome. Jalen routinely had his Rose Garden groups at games for years during the late Amaker/early Beilein era. He's been honored on the Crisler Court in recent years. To say they are unwelcome is just wrong.
to buy tickets and attend games and an official embrace for the Fab Five. His comments are not about himself alone. He goes out of his way to note that every last former MSU team member is always invited to MSU events.
Again, I'm unhappy about his remarks. But I think I see what place they're coming from.
Michigan State has never vacated a basketball victory.
When they have, and the players responsible are officially embraced by the university, I'll understand his point.
Paps mentioned it, but a reason I thought this was thread worthy is the idea that the Fab Five era is beyond over.
Jalen mentioned the "best coach ever" and at this point, maybe that's true. But, not for long, I believe.
It's the John Beilein era. The Fab Five is over, it's done and everyone has moved on other than, well, the Fab Five.
Tomorrow night Michigan could make that statement with authority. A win on the road, against MSU to go 7-0 in conference when most were hoping we'd have only 2 losses at this point would be huge.
Of course, legacies are made in the tournament, but in my eyes, the greatest Michigan coach is going to be on the court of Breslin tomorrow night and he'll have a chance to add another bullet point to that claim.
And his donations to create the The Rose Garden are wonderful. But all this talk about honoring the Fab 5 over and over is disgusting to say the least. Webber owes the University of Michigan an apology. Until UM gets that there should be no honoring the Fab 5. But what really irks me is the lack of acknowledgement of the other players on both of those teams by Rose. The Fab 5 did not do everything for those teams. They didn't score all the points, get all the rebounds or block all the shots. Rose acts like the other members of the team were nonexistent or just carried the bags for the Fab 5. If Rose would ask for those Teams to be honored with or without Webber then it might happen. Honoring just five guys from a team is a slap in the face to all the other team members.
This is a great point. If I were any of those guys I'd be pissed. Very selfish of Jalen for trying to talk badly about this program unless there was actually something sinister going on behind the scenes which I'm sure is not happening.
I have been trying to find out when Michael talley's jersey is getting retired but the girl at the ticket office keeps saying that she does not know who that is (and to quit winking at her).
Had the same agent as Kobe Bryant, he would get his due. Whatever happened to Eric Riley? Do he and James Vosguil ever hang out and decry their unappreciation? Maybe....just maybe.
Eric Riley does, in fact, decry their underappreciation...at the time, by their Fab Five teammates and by the head coach.
"We felt like it was split. It felt like it was two different teams," Riley said, referring to the Fab Five and the Wolverines players that were there before their arrival. "We had experience, and some of us had been on a team that won a national championship (1989). But we felt like we were just part of their team."
"That was Coach (Steve) Fisher's first recruiting class. We knew he wanted to bring in his own guys, and he let the upperclassmen pretty much know they didn't want us and we were free to go if we wanted to," Riley said in a phone interview with The News-Herald.
Riley was a 2nd round NBA pick If a player of his talents was left to feel he wasn't wanted and was free to go, something was wrong with the family atmosphere at the time. That's the kind of stuff I hate Calipari for.
OT: Line just opened at MSU -6. Give me Michigan and the points all day.
