Kansas State Football / Re: Michigan QB Devin Gardner...
« on: December 24, 2013, 11:29:01 AM »
I don't really even care.  Michigan fans have lulled me into a feeling of Meh by their complete lack of online interaction.

Michigan fans seem more like what I thought Notre Dame fans are probably like, too self absorbed to really care about the other team/fans, and if you swear or are mean to them then they chastise you. They are a very uppity bunch considering their whole state is pretty much Thunderdome right now.
The economy of the state of Michigan doesn't really affect Michigan or the average Michigan student/alumni in any significant way.

And why should it?  They are just upper class kids from private schools that couldn't get in to the real ivies taking advantage of the state's generous subsidies for their education.  What concern could they possibly have for the gremlins and ghouls populating the vast wasteland surrounding their smug factory of assholes?

The state's subsidies aren't that generous anyway and if you are an OOS student you pay around 55,000 a year for tuition.

braindrain is a tragic phenomenon.
Not really relevant to the University though. During the state's downturn, they have actually increased enrollment while raising the incoming SAT/ACT/GPA and lowering the admission rate.

Our game is currently off the board at virtually every shop both online and off.  That leads me to believe that Gardner won't go at all.

Hope everybody got in early on KSU.  Could also be a decent middle opportunity depending on where it re-opens based on Gardner not playing.

The line is back up on most sites now. Cats -4.5 or -5 depending upon where you go.

Interesting, if true.

Really thought the books would place more value on Gardner... 

 :sdeek:

We're going to get beat like little Ohio kids in burlap sacks.  :Crybaby:

I was at least excited for the matchup when Gardner was going to play, now it'll be a blowout/snooze fest.

Was that kid that Lewan beat the crap out of outside The Little Brown Jug in a burlap sack?!?

 :Wha:

Perhaps, Lewan seems like the type that beats the crap out of a lot of people. I would hate his guts if he didn't play for Michigan, seems like kind of a bad person.

I don't like that he "lost his cool" on the field a few times this season and admit that he constantly face masks people. However, I have seen nothing to suggest that he is a "bad person" off of the field. He turned down millions to finish his degree and out loyalty to his teammates and coaches. If you are basing your judgments based on reports by an attention-seeking xenophobic tea party conspiracy theorist and a Bucknuts staff that publishes a photoshopped hospital document that claims someone was diagnosed with "assault" than I suggest you reconsider.

What about threatening to rape a rape victim if she testified against a teammate? 

Quote
Shortly after the woman reported the rape, she began to receive threats from Gibbons roommate and fellow football player, Taylor Lewan (now an All-American), that he would rape her again if she pressed charges against Gibbons.

The threats were reported by two other football players to the Office of Student Affairs who reported them to the University police. The University police did a “wellness check” on the young woman and met with Taylor Lewan. They warned Taylor Lewan not to threaten the woman again and that he might face criminal charges. No criminal charges were ever filed by the campus police. 

Would that make him a "bad person"?

 :buh-bye:

It would. However, there is no evidence tying Lewan to any of those documents. I could just as easily find some redacted documents related to a crime at KSU, buy a url, start a blog, and claim that the documents were referring to Collin Klein. The guy behind "Washtenaw Watchdogs" is a tea party conspiracy theorists who thinks that Chinese grad students are spies that are stealing technology from the US: http://willowruntpc.ning.com/profile/DougSmith

I've never understood why NDSU fans think Minnesota is so cool. It's a bottom tier state.
Im a minnesota resident. And sorry...but Minnesota shits on Kansas in basically everything. LOL. well besides meth.

Minnesota is like a dumber Wisconsin.

Iowa 3(lol)

I don't see how debt, unemployment, or budget deficits are related to intelligence.

Well, that could be because you are a dumbass.

Could be, but if I debt finance additional education and leave my job then I will be even a bigger dumbass according to USA Today. It is a lose-lose game.

They just have one of the worst fanbases in college sports.  I work with a MSU grad and he confirmed

Of course he's going to say that but yeah, I mean they don't seem like a fanbase that consistantly sells out a 110k stadium.

Michigan was also the second most watched team on TV despite going 7-5. Most fans just aren't very excited about the bowl and even want Morris to start in order to provide more entertainment.

This is true. They have already built a rink inside of the Big House in preparation for the changeover.
