Um, yeah. Of course, that might be why I said the rivalry was better 5-10 years ago.

Carr didn't leave you in that big of a mess, imo. You had plenty of talent for the right coach. RR was a terrible hire. Had a nice do over with Hoke though.

Carr left no QB and a recruiting class that failed at pretty much every spot.

Wow the big game is pretty sick, tony g puts 5k pounds in blind, torreli shoves for 20k with k7o. Tony g gets mad, because the guy shoved. He wants him to be banned from ever playing in the big game. He said wtf you come from america to try to embarrass me **** do you think your a genius for making that play, torreli says I had to put 20k to win 5k. Tony says all you want is 5k. Then he punks out like a bitch and says here tony I will straddle for 300, what a ****in pussy, Tony G is a tough guy unlike most poker players. hahahahahhaahahhahahahahhahahahah, funniest **** ever.

Carr left a QB - Ryan Mallet. RR ran him off. Defensively the roster was solid, but RR's staff was defense poor (Tony Gibson as a secondary coach is an absolute joke).
Michigan wasn't great when Carr left, but I am not buying you became 3-9/5-7 bad because of Carr's recruiting. A coach with systems like Hoke would have kept you in the 9/10 win range at a minimum.

Personally I prefer to play in a LAGy game than a nits game. IME, what appears to be a LAGy game usually has atleast one spewtard/donator. IMO, for tight players like most 2+2ers are, action games are by far the most profitable.

Lol no. Carr told mallet to leave. Read three and out and come back later.

Of course they are the most profitable. But the variance is higher. If you play with a bunch of nits you can run over the table. You cant do that at an aggressive table. We play low stakes so we dont see aggressive tables. When I took my shot at 5/10 last year, I was up 18k in a week. Then variance kicked in and I lost 8k in 2 days to suckouts and coolers, the lags are so good at the comm. I had to quit or I would have went broke.

I don't believe anything that comes from the RR camp. At all.

That's great, you obviously have no idea what three and out is.

I know exactly what it is, read part of it, and still felt it was defended RR.

Carr wasn't great, but RR took you down the hell hole, not Carr. Terrible, terrible hire. Just a poor fit with what you had on your roster from the start.

Edit: I read all of the WVU section in Three and Out but didn't finish the whole book. What was written about WVU and RR differed enough from reality for me to doubt other sections of the book.

Just when I thought a BCS win had ended the AIDS that was the 2011 Michigan football finger pointing.

I like player's who limp,l/c, c/c or c/f. I don't like players raising me light or raising at all.

I like players who open fold the flop. Except when they invalidate a BBJP.

High variance with that thinking. You live in the middle of nowhere so maybe you would want that. If you like bad lags and bad aggressive players LA is definitely the place to call home.

I get the sickest beats and win pots I wouldn't win anywhere else in the country.

Especially the midwest,lmao.
