I'm not going to spend a lot of time "defending" Shalala, but I would point out that she did stand behind the admission of Willie Williams. If ever there was a time that she could have cut-and-run, that was it. But she didn't.

It's hard to even care about a comeback to witless and weak posts such as yours. I won't even try. I'll just let everyone re-read your pathetic attempt at an insult. Take a couple of days, I'm sure you'll eventually figure out something that you should have typed instead of that nonsense.

They are not both "contractual obligation games" genius. You don't even understand the usage of the phrase. Stick to the simple stuff, and leave this to the adults. Intelligent people know what a "contractual obligation" game is. It is referring to an obligation you have due to a contract...

You must be right, because stalkers like you prefer to stalk females, as a male would give you more trouble.

A few years prior (1985 season/1986 Sugar Bowl, I think) some of our players got involved in an altercation on Bourbon Street, I believe that Greg Mark was one of the guys that got hit in the head with a bottle, and he ended up fighting back and then getting arrested/detained and picked up a...

Your post was way too long for most people, as the only thing most people care about when it comes to Shalala is "Democrat" and "Clinton friend". That dictates 99% of the Shalala-related opinions on this board. Fightin is a good dude, law degree, bright guy, even if he and I disagree on...

Very true. If you ever catch the game on ESPN Classic, it was a DOWNPOUR, and then JJ decided to run up the score on Mike Archer (one of Schnellenberger's guys who didn't want to coach under JJ). During halftime, I went down to get food, and while I was waiting for someone, I walked up the...

Every other recent school got the benefit of watching us, and adjusting their tactics accordingly.

Not me. Not allowed back. Got arrested at halftime of the 1988 game and spent the night in jail.

Keep playing your childish semantic games. Blake James negotiated a contract with Michigan State. Notre Dame negotiated a contract with the ACC. There is a difference.

Just a few things. Pre-Shalala. Henry King Stanford was the president for the hiring of Saban and Schnellenberger. Also, those were the days prior to having a "full-time dedicated" Athletic Director. Doc Mallios (professor at UM) was the AD for part of that time (I used to work with his...

You are clueless. I'm not "diminishing" or "putting down" the Notre Dame games. I am accurately pointing out the contractual obligation because Notre Dame DID NOT AND WOULD NOT be playing all of these ACC games without the trade-off of getting their others sports teams into the ACC. And I am...

Dopey false equivalency. Nobody cares about the "other 129 teams". The only thing that matters is Power 5. That's our peer group, that's who we compete with for playoff spots. And probably only about half of the Power 5 group matters, unless you desperately want me to analyze Iowa State's...

The exact response of a person who has lost every argumentative point. I realize that you're on the UM payroll and that you have to defend Blake and the Hecht, but your arguments are pure crap.

But your tiny brain is capable of comprehending why some of us, who have been around for a while, view these as pre-season (in name only) games, right? And your tiny brain didn't think that any of us were acting as if these "pre-season" games didn't count in the records, right? So, in other...

Stop being a little *****. They are "pre-season" in the sense that they are played before the majority of the other teams actually start playing. Now that we have gone to 12 games, they are not as "pre-season" as they once were, but don't be a moron and act like I am equating them with NFL...

You are a Blake-James-d!ck-sucking wonderboy. As I pointed out, we will play THREE pre-season kickoff games in FOUR years. Nobody else is doing that. Literally, NOBODY. Plus, you neglected to include the Notre Dame "neutral site" game in Chicago, so that's four in a decade. THAT'S TOO MANY...

Nobody is questioning the TV value of the pre-season games. EVERYONE should question the annual scheduling process of having those games three times within four seasons. Hmmm, why would I say that? Because if you give up one of your four OOC slots to a "neutral-site" game, then that forces...

Alabama, LSU, and The Gata are all pre-season games. Only aTm, Notre Dame, Michigan State, and South Carolina have home-and-home characteristics. Stop white-knighting for Blake and rest of the Hecht.

Hilarious. While you brag about the "gameday atmosphere" of Columbia, South Carolina, the capital city of one of the two or three most racist states in the US. I'll take "pompous" over "racist" any day of the week.
