QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 5, 2016 -> 09:20 AM) If the left wing of the democratic party actually cared about issues enough to vote during midterms more than sharing articles on social media they could probably have accomplished more. Hillary's campaign is so much better this time, she's a better candidate than 08. She's smart and she doesn't pull any punches. Something I didn't care for in 08 but see a lot of appeal in now. You know why Clinton has such a murky record? She has actually been in the policy fights of the last 20 years and having to be part of the decisions of watering down or strengthening bills that affected people. Meanwhile Sanders was in his safe lillywhite seat in Vermont sniping. Caucusing with the democrats and never getting an elite chair in the senate. But yeah, I'm sure as president his debate skillz will convince the country to vote in a wave of candidates and create a liberal dream gov't. I'm convinced. I think you need to brush up on your Sanders history because you are painting both with pretty inaccurate broad brushes. For example, its not exactly safe or easy to get elected to the house as an independent, regardless of where you are from. Its also extremely difficult to win elections when money is brought against you. It's also very difficult to be in any position of leadership in the senate or house as an independent socialist. His entry into politics wasnt nearly as easy as Silver Spoon Hillary's was with Wellsley, Yale and then on the coattails of her husband. They put it pretty accurately on the news this morning when they said Hillary is the bead/brain option and Sanders is the heart.

NCAA basketball 2015-16 thread

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 4, 2016 -> 10:11 PM) Ohio State, Wisconsin and Michigan are going to be in a dogfight for those 5th and 6th NCAA tourney bids... Theoretically, seven's a possibility, but so is just five. Count the Buckeyes out, they aren't making it. -
QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 10:36 AM) What do you guys spend on that speed? I have 25mb service from ATT and it's $40/month. My 100mb service I believe is about 86 per month.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Feb 4, 2016 -> 07:12 AM) Is it just me, or do most of these big recruits look like they're in their early 20s? I'm about 35 and most of them grow beards, and I still cannot.

Holy f***, OSU has 45 freshman suiting up this fall. Jesus.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 06:04 PM) Cte? You mean he hasn't been sober in 40 years. Is that what it is? The things coming out of his mouth were gibberish

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 06:01 PM) Hey, Rubio finished 3rd and look at his fanfare! So so true.

Pretty sure Flair has CTE, first he talked about calling a dead guy, then he considers a 3rd place team "the man."

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 04:08 PM) Not having great recruiters at Wisconsin and Nebraska is huge. Not to mention Illinois and Minnesota going in the tank...and Purdue used to give Iowa trouble as well in their better days. And finally Iowa State has been in turmoil. Confluence of favorable factors. Still, ND always looms in the Midwest, and now Michigan again. http://www.hawkcentral.com/story/sports/co...lones/79756708/ Sounds like Nathan Stanley from WI has a similar profile to Brad Banks...but a bit more balanced between running and throwing. Also won battle for MI offensive lineman Alaric Jackson. Desmond King staying has really helped in Detroit supposedly. http://www.hawkcentral.com/story/sports/co...ckson/79750496/ Michigan really isnt recruiting much in the midwest yet, zero kids from Ohio which is really weird.

AS long as Iowa is in the BIG West they have a damn good shot at the division, especially with easy crossover years.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 12:26 PM) Phew Dude, there was never a question. If you followed his recruiting even back when he was recruited to Paramus catholic you knew this was a done deal.

QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 12:56 PM) Seems like a fun day to be a Rivals or sbnation web vendor. Massive database failure, classic Rivals.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 10:22 AM) I'm not sure how Tuf Borland will do in the Big Ten but he was an awesome high school player. He's already enrolled too So Ric Flair makes fun of Bubba Smith, says he's going to call him. Bubba is dead.

Charlie Strong is really setting up new Coach Tom Herman for the future.

And with that last announcement OSU is done for the day.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 08:44 AM) 45 mins late but Hill does to Ann Arbor. Had to scroll down far to see MSU ranking. Told ya

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 08:30 AM) Anything with Ric Flair isnt a little show! I see on Twitter as guys sign so the party isn't a big deal to me. Supposedly there is some silent commit. No idea who that would be or how big it is. Unless that's Gary. Probably Gary, or that kicker. I like being done before noon, the last min decisions are the worst.

People who dont follow college football much are going to wonder why Bosa didnt go to the NFL, not knowing thats his little brother wearing his number.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 08:25 AM) I honestly just typed "Going Blue" because it was shorter. Didn't know it was a thing. You're more confident than me on Hill but I'm feeling more comfortable on Gary with unbiased guys predicting Michigan for him. Only guys predicting Clemson are their reporters. Farrell tried to lean Clemson, but its for clicks. Clemson didnt hire Gary's HS coach, no matter how much they think their "brand" is good. Sucks that Michigan isnt telling you guys s*** until that little show thing. We are about done and its only 8:30.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 2, 2016 -> 08:24 PM) Any decent non Comcast options for Internet? Man did they piss me off tonight. Not if you want speed. Google will be the next option, but ATT is DSL and dish is pretty slow.
-
When they hire an AD and a new coaching staff at some point, count me in for the recruiting coordinator.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 2, 2016 -> 07:58 PM) Onwenu stays Michigan after some thought he was flipping to Michigan State. Makes me feel a little better about LaVert Hill but would be shocked if he went Blue. Hill is IN. Why do you guys call it going Blue? Isnt your main color Maize?
