CORRECTIONS FROM EDITORIAL

I just read that and died.

We’ve gone from Bolivian omelets to guest appearances by New Republic writers in just two posts. My aren’t we well rounded!

ND as Training Wheels Dept:

Jon Chait does not qualify for the Michigan job, but he is holding out for the Notre Dame job when it becomes available next year.

He might not know squat, but at least he knows more about the college game than Belt-Abuser Weis, taking the University of Michigan course called “Theory, Strategy, and Practice of Football” and all…..

A followup to his book, THE BIG CON: The true story of how Washington got hoodwinked and hijacked by crackpot economics, is entitled:

“THE BIG CON 2: The true story of how Notre Dame got hoodwinked and hijacked by crackpot coaching”

Surprisingly, a wikipedia search for Bolivian Omelette returned no hits.

Wlat Harrith will not discuss the job at this time.

As an Eagles fan, I appreciated the Rich Kotite reference. Well done.

Again, this brings to the forefront something very important in my mind:

Just who are my fellow posters?

I mean, we’ve probably got a few TV personalities and I’m willing to wager at least one politician in office right now.

(and no, I have not been snooping Orson’s email)

The New Republic and Football?

How ’bout an Ann Arbor Diary!

Vivid “recollections” of playing with the bloody scalps of Ohio State fans; seeing a dog wander onto the field and intentionally calling sweeps to that side; wanting to fuck a Purdue player with a disfigured ACL…

Put ’em in coach!

“Tim Tebow is going down this week. Y’all put that down.” – Geno Hayes

Gators: It’s time to steal some cheese and make some sandwiches.

Ann Arbor is a whore, so maybe Mike Price should be added to the list of potential guys.

Stephen Glass just filed a report about the Michigan head coaching vacancy and told a ribald tale of Leslie Miles’ interview. It involved rented mini fridges, hackers, shooting ranges, repeated viewings of the movie “Volver” and of course the obligitory Mike Price style strip club/massage parlor/pre-op TV threesome that we would expect from the New Republic and Glass. Oh and Leslie insnt interested in the job..according to Glass. But he does want to start recruting in Bankok..

I thought Ann Arbor had changed her ways and gone legit. Man, learn something new everyday!

SKLM,

I hate you, the “university” of southern california, all parties relating to or consituent to aforementioned university, and the entire half of LA south of the 10 freeway, but damn if it isn’t good to have you back.

You forgot to mention Dennis Erikson….he usually makes a head coaching change twice a year, so he is on par.

George, what does the north half of LA have besides the porn industry?

oc phil @ 16: what else does it need, aside from a pay-to-play orthodontics program?

I don’t buy that denial for a moment. This guy is going to take the Michigan job and I bet he pulls a Fran and doesn’t even meet with his writers or with Leon Wieseltier to tell them goodbye. Who’s going to take his job at TNR? Les Miles??

@#19:
Arianna Huffington’s and Ana Marie Cox’s lovespawn, hopefully.

about an hour ago, i read the words “rich kotite” on this site. i just came to. my wife has bruises, my gun is out and smoking, and the cops are here. what happenned?

Yeh he has already agreed to take the job, in principle, he and his wife has met with the AD in the hotel lobby and they have a gentlemens agreem……….wait, uh, reports are coming in that the editors have had a double secret meeting and are offering more money and time off to stay at the New Republic, promising more supplies and better office equipment….my God Michigan came soooo close…..what an embarrassment, to get turned down by their second choice….how will they every recover….??

I didn’t know your readership extended this far yet, Orson. +1000 cocktails to you!

1. DC: good point.

I consider my turf to be south of LA, not south LA (in spite of Artie Moreno), so I’m fine with complaining about any portion of the city.

Yeah, the New Republic sure is in line for some prestigious awards! How’re those subscription numbers looking?

In any case, Jon Chait was the best writer they had in my opinion. By a mile. I’m sure he could be above .500 in that shit conference.

Hate hate hate!

LOL, well this is why we love the great state of Michigan….13 yr old boy, driving for his father who is too drunk to drive, tells the cop he didnt want to drive, because, he too, was too drunk to drive..you cant make this shit up:

i just read that and died. fortunately, jesus gave up on trying to bring notre dame back to life, so he stopped by my house. praise the lord!

jon chait will not be head coach at michigan. try saying “coach chait” 3 times real fast. just doesn’t work.

If Chait were coach I am sure he would be a great recruiter because he could always tell the recruits all the negative stories about how other school’s coaches made fun of inured players, ran over dogs with their tackling sleds, and wore children’s skulls on their heads during practices instead of helmets.

Of course, like his magazine’s anti-troop fantasy piece the Bagdad Diarist, none of it would be true.

Lloyd was a man of integrity, Chait apparently did not learn this lesson at Michigan and instead has gone to defending a magazine where the truth doesn’t matter so long as it meets his viewpoint.
(i recognize that Chait was not directly involved in the Scott Beuchamp disgrace, and this is joke piece, but seriously that magazine is a laughingstock).

“Lloyd was a man of integrity, Chait apparently did not learn this lesson at Michigan and instead has gone to defending a magazine where the truth doesn’t matter so long as it meets his viewpoint.”

He’s working for Thomas Smith and the National Review now?
When will the coaching merry-go-round end?
