the thing about wave elections is that they hit unevenly and can produce crazy outcomes

I guess it must feel like he has to say this sort of thing. And maybe it's technically true that they are a few plays away each game. But I hope he doesn't actually believe this. mgoblog.com/content/week...

This is so many people. Hard to comprehend

This is a terrifying thread about how much evil a single collaborator can do. He's not a mustache-twirling cackling villain, he's somebody who looks and acts perfectly ordinary otherwise. This is a real-life example of what Hannah Arendt wrote about in her "Banality of Evil."

Watching the Steelers play in Paris, knowing that the French would never tolerate Jason Beck.

Hey Michigan: Oregon even scored a touchdown yesterday, and they still fired the OC!

Because I grew up in an intown "inner city" bungalow neighborhood, I have never been to a cheesecake factory. I always think people are talking about the Old Spaghetti Factory on Ponce.

Post script: I forgot the funniest part. Raul, mind you, is a pretty conservative guy. He's no radical. He was so taken back by their sudden switch he changed the group WhatsApp DM he has with the two sons to "zapatista liberation chat"

Both his sons, overnight, became instantly polarized against not just Trump, but the party. They are pissed. Both kids' girlfriends are (and have been) liberal/Dems. Making that switch for these guys was effortless. They're not impotent 55 year olds steeped in decades of Fox News 7/

I spoke with a former colleague of mine, a second generation Mexican American in his 50s, yesterday. It was illuminating. A 🧵 1/

What Trump and his ilk understand is the laws on the books only matter if someone will enforce them. The longer the shot, the fewer their allies willing to defy the law. If Dems pull 53 seats, it’s much harder to convince GOP judges to defy law for the team. 50-49, maybe different story.

What's the Beck call that broke you? For me personally, there's way too many to list out. The goal line calls against Indiana were some of the most egregious I've ever seen in 30+ years of closely following Michigan football. Drop yours below 👇

This whole thread is damning

Michigan's defense has held all 7 opponents to 20 points or fewer. Since 2014, FBS teams that do that win 87% of the time. Michigan is 4-3. Jason Beck has to go. Now. Here's the data. 🧵

I'm so glad Bryce Underwood and Tommy Carr have a QB coach this year.

😂😂😂😂😂

This is a 2nd & 6. If there's anything that can be said to be Beck's base shit it's Jet Bash opposite QB Power. They know when he's running it. They know how to murder it. And here in Game 7 he still has no counter to punish the Oklahoma response.

Horrible news for Indiana

Would you hire him as Michigan OC? I'm not sure..... I mean yes right? Don't overthink it?

". Those in favor of “government efficiency” and “streamlining bureaucracy” often put the cart before the horse, forgetting that there is a basic, fundamental level of state capacity that must exist for any reforms to work."

How bad can it b---- oh no

The New Mexico turquoise jersey with Route 66 helmet is so good.

Excellent message

How fast can Dems get this in ads?

So there's no QB problem at Michigan. Anything but, actually. Bryce Underwood and Tommy Carr are both talented enough to win with. The maturity Underwood's shown after sitting down is some of the best I've ever seen from a QB his age. They need to be coached better. Whole offense does.

Michigan lost 14 yards on third and inches from the goal line. That should be on a Post-It note on the box containing Jason Beck’s personal belongings outside his office at Schembechler Hall.

Bob Chesney can get UCLA to run a jet sweep and also they run both counter and inside zone and in fact even more runs than that.

you like college football? you think college football is fun? www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZnZ...

Michigan loves to lose yards in situations where you cannot lose yards.

I can't wait to see Jason Beck screw this red zone possession up

At this point I want Michigan to win because it would be the funniest thing.

"Matt, do you actually take this graph seriously?" "Of course not, you can't make causal claims like this on the basis of a time series. That said, it's at least as compelling as the other story telling attempts." <Matt drinks 2 beers> "Listen buddy, TEFRA is going to destroy the human race."

Michigan had a long interception return stopped a few yards from the end zone and it was so clear they needed it to be a pick 6 because there was no way the offense was getting a TD
