Thursday, May 25, 2006 at 07:41AM I give Spartan Bob credit, he's got cajones.
In a single week he's penned three takedowns of college football's sacred cows of the Midwest---Ohio State, Michigan and Notre Dame.
All of that coming from a Michigan State fan. Take that, Goliath!
Not sure I agree with all of them, but they're interesting and something to chew on during this most wonderful college football offseason.
Bonus:
Check out his description of Ann Arbor-
a Soviet Union of NCAA Football less than 100 miles down the street, in a town where burning leaves is illegal and burning flags is encouraged. A twisted, un-American place, where freedom is in chains, and they go to court to defend an Orwellian speech code and a racially-based admissions department. Consider this blog to be their message of hope and liberation. Their "Radio: Free Ann Arbor."
Yikes. He's gonna start a war or two before he's done, heh.
Play nice, children.

I hate UM on the gridiron like the next person, but bringing politics into the matter only spells trouble. We agree with the Green and lets leave it at that.
Aside from the obvious editorializing with the 'un-American' statement, the rest is a 100% factually accurate restating of history, and the events are linked: the infamous Speech Code was a deliberate -- and completely unconstitutional -- attempt to keep students from publicly barking about the admissions policy.
Oh yeah, and the racially-based admissions policy (at least the undergraduate version) was also ruled unconstitutional.
Having the highest court in the land rule, not once, but TWICE in the same decade that the school is violating the civil liberties of Michigan students does seem sort of 'un-American' in my book. But, then again, I'm not the Spartan claiming enlightenment.
And it all makes this bit of irony in the post all the more amusing: "..a different story altogether to be strong enough to allow diversity and differences to play a part in developing America's future..."
The most important minority is the individual, and the most critical bit of diversity is the diversity of opinion. Speech Codes in Ann Arbor and (sad to say) some Spartans with pretentions to enlightenment seem to forget this when they publicly lay down markers about what comments are permissable, and where.
