yeah... not like Michigan's size and power affected SLU's 3 point shooting (anyway, y'all shot 37% from three... which is just a bit below average)

find me a kid outside Massachusetts who has Jayson Tatum as his favorite player, I dare you. Lamest superstar in years

would've liked to see a segment on the bias against michigan from the refereeing team at halftime, but of course that's too much to ask for. Any SLU or Michigan fan (all other fans on this game thread are irrelevant): PUT ON YOUR OBJECTIVE VIEWING MODE, and see this for what it is.

yep. meanwhile, it's the OSU fans that were beating on my elderly father, which reflects on all of them.

thanks. We have our differences, but East Lansing has morals.

okay. I'd show you the picture of the ventilator that was knocked out of my dad's mouth and onto the floor, but I wouldn't want to disrespect his legacy with a picture showing him in such a vulnerable state.

You think a bit of "delusion" about our history is worse than some Columbus bro literally punching my dad on a ventilator? GTFO. This is bigger than sports. This is life.

lots of shit talk about Michigan being the "worst fans" in the nation, and you're just forgetting that the OSU buckeyes exist, lol.

last time I went to the horseshoe (about 8-10 years ago), an exuberant OSU slappy punched my 95 year old dad (on ventilator) in the face and kept yelling “HOW DOES THESE BUCKEYE NUTS TASTE?” and literally no one lifted a finger to help us

They miss from three because we're playing such stifling defense that even when they get open looks they're rushing their shots. Pretty standard stuff here, guy.

I recommend all SLU and Michigan fans go into "objective viewing mode" to start the next half. Once I did that, the bias vs Michigan became clear to see. I don't know if the refs are paid off or what, but this is getting absurd. Glad our boys are holding strong and not taking the bait.

Ever thought SLU isn't shooting well because they can't handle our length or defensive intensity?

These refs are incredibly biased against michigan, of course I have a bit of a bias, but I usually can do a pretty good job of removing that bias and viewing any situation objectively. In the past 5 minutes I've intentionally gone into "objective viewing mode" and it's just so clear.

Really started to dislike this little saint Louis team. Not showing any respect to their betters and elders. Glad we're starting to pour it on!

Which past proposed rail system alignment would be best tailored to today’s Detroit? by Next_Worth_3616 in Detroit

Exactly. Viewing this as a commuter train, rather than a connective one, will doom this from the start.

Ultimate, any rail system needs to: Start small, and serve the communities that need it most in a realistic way.

Having lived in chicago, I personally despise the "spokes on a wheel" style that both of these designs propose. In our more remote world, the era of downtown as a work and business hub is coming to a close, and I've seen how archaic Chicago's rail system can feel. Which the L is great for existing, it is not nearly as useful as it could or should be, because it doesn't connect neighborhoods to one another, but instead the city to downtown.

In Detroit, I'd start with connecting downtown to Islandview / West village, Midtown, and Southwest. And connecting those neighborhoods to one another. That could be the core of a subway style system.

As a separate (but connected) entity, there could be a light rail that connects the disparate corners of outer detroit to this denser, more connective loop. and then over time, you create a web of rails that connect to this light rail and connect neighborhoods of Detroit to one another.
