Personal note: In my day job I represent ConnectPay Payroll Service (connectpayusa.com). We focus entirely on small business so when you call us a human being answers. Every client has a dedicated customer rep and our client retention rate is 90%, unheard of in payroll. – at Grosse Pointe Farms, MI

40 years ago today.
Same week!
Unheard of.
And please leave your political thoughts out of your replies.
Hey @JDue51 a friend sent me this article on Sunday that says Beck will have less of a role calling plays based on obvious reasons, but I haven't seen this anywhere but this random blog, is this just fake news?

When Jeff Gordon comes to Yost, apparently we take 'photo finish' literally. 🏁 Come back soon!
Jeff Gordon and his family saw an incredible thriller on Friday night as @umichhockey scored with 0.1 remaining in the final period to take a 3-2 victory over Western Michigan University at Yost Ice Arena. Jeff's daughter Ella is a freshman at the school.

Take a good look at prime Gordie Howe. As long as that line doesn’t break, he’s reeling in everything up to, and including, Moby Dick.

Jared Goff spent time with sisters who taught him at Marin Catholic High School, before the Lions beat the Packers.

80s era Pontiac Fiero seen in the wild this weekend! On Mound Rd in Warren, snapped a few pics and this one happened to be in front of a blue storefront, w/ blue sky, and even a blue PODS container. All I did was crop this photo, no filter I swear. – at Harper Woods, MI

Never been a fan of bringing on extra OL unless that’s your identity. If you’re a run first team. That’s the issue with UM offense. It has zero identity and that starts with the play caller. You have to design an offense around the strengths of the players you have and adapt your scheme to that. Today was very frustrating as UM has talent but it doesn’t appear cater to the strengths of the personnel. The offense seldom threatens the defense downfield vertically. The lack of QB movement to sprint or boot on 1/2 down is a head scratcher. Lastly, when you insert an extra OL in the game you are giving the defense one less player to worry about in the pass game. Situationally that’s fine from time to time but UM leans WAY too much on it.

When CJ Carr goes to watch his brother Tommy Carr play, it’s a great story. But when a friend of mine goes to watch my son Ryan Day play, Pete Thamel throws a fit.

Phone call from a journalist visiting Michigan to do some reporting:
"What is a 'party store'?"

He dealt with the goddamn customers so that the engineers didn't have to. He had people skills. He was good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that?
