Seriously, does the Detroit news do this on purpose? They almost have to. It's like asking a Rock Music guy if he's ever heard of The stones or Springstein

You can't be this stupid can you?  It has to be done to get the ire of a fan base.  Nobody can be this dumb and cover the NFL.  Can they?  I'm really confused.

Anyway, from the article:
MSU only has one fucking back in the NFL.  I think we only have one QB too.  Fuck, we suck.

"Nowadays that title can’t be claimed by any one college, according to Detroit News research. In fact, NFL-caliber running backs come from programs across the nation, whether it's a dynamic Division I school or a little-known Division II college.



California and Stanford tied for the most running backs on NFL rosters and injured reserved lists at the end of the 2015 season with four apiece.

Ten colleges followed with three, including USC, Alabama and Oklahoma. Michigan was among the 19 schools that had two tailbacks and 51 other colleges had one, including Michigan State, Central Michigan, Wayne State, Morningside College, Abilene Christian and Coe College."


Now, honestly, you can tell me I'm too paranoid, that I think the blue wall exists when it doesn't, that it's all made up, and I might say, you're probably right, I have a chip on my shoulder.  But, if you are a casual observer of the NFL, let alone an NFL writer AND YOU DO THE RESEARCH, are you really telling me you don't realize Langford and Bell, two MSU backs who happen to be two of the best in the league come from MSU?  Even if you don't follow the game, you might have maybe heard the names just once or twice.

My god, I'd like to comment to the writer but the dregs in those comments sections are pathetic.  They'll change the on line stuff, but the hard paper print that I read on the shitter this morning is a tribute to their stupidity.

It's not Spring-STEIN.



But the linked article is just another example of the laziness of modern journalism. Editor proposes series and assigns it to writer. It looks like the writer took about 20 minutes to shit out this piece and it was given a perfunctory review and that was it.

Print journalism is dead.

This pretty much tells you all you need to know about print journalism these days.

The MSU part in the article or the Spring-STEIN part in the posting?

In my defense, I can't listen to him without wanting to shove knitting needles in my ears.

I can live with the Spring-STEIN thing.. but these people have no idea what the Banks of the Red Cedar means to me.

I'm guessing Bell wasn't officially on the Steelers' roster at the end of 2015 because he was hurt.

But, come on.

Article says they checked rosters and injured reserve.

Fucking liberal bias.

It's your own fucking fault. If you did not read that shit from the D you would have a better day. This is entirely on you - your problem - fix it.

Listen. There is nothing, and I mean nothing, like getting up in the morning, walking out to the drive way, scratching your nuts as your neighbors walk to their car, checking the sky, looking around, picking up the paper, walking back in, brewing a coffee, black you pussies, going to sit on the shitter, taking a morning dump and reading a newspaper.

Fuck you reading a phone on the shitter.

I stream it - they were covering topics in the early 70s that people will barely touch on TV today.

oh, I know - all of the sensitive snowflakes these days would be shrieking in horror.

Not sure what channel it's on in East Lansing - but they also show The Andy Griffith Show, old Happy Days, Gilligan's Island - some other old skool classics.

Who the fuck would have a god damn I pad thrown onto their drive every morning so they could scratch their  nuts in front of their neighbor and check the weather?  The fuck is wrong with you?

But, I'm with you. I love the old timey routine of getting the paper and commencing with everything you said. But I do read papers on my phone, too.

BTW: It's time you update your attitude about technology so you can tweet at the jackass who wrote that article. You might get a response. I think the tSwill tweeters should also be on this, but they're all lazy phuckers trying to recruit underage boys here.
