Here’s the latest quote about Ron English’s foot-in-mouth about single mothers, from “clickondetroit” channel 4, “EMU Coach Defends His Words About Single Moms.” Here’s a quote: Eastern Michigan University’s head football coach Ron English said he wasn’t attacking single moms.Earlier this summer, English said he wants recruits that have fathers in their background [...] Also in non-strike EMU news (well, sort of) is the above video and this link to EMU’s Ron English (and a couple players) talking Media Day stuff with the MAC folks. I say “non-strike” news, but it is hard for me not to flinch/remember the stuff that the EMU-AAUP has been saying about [...] I guess you’d call this a billboard; it’s hanging on the Student Center right now. Anyway, my four thoughts (please add your own in the comments): I would really prefer if our students did not cheer their brains out as they might need them for classes. As an overweight white guy myself, the [...] It’s Sunday morning, and this seems like a nice and happy feature story to share around EMUTalk.org: from Annarbor.com, “Eastern Michigan professor Howard Booth, 67, one of state’s best Senior Olympian pole vaulters.” The opening lines: Howard Booth was curious. He cut down the sapling in his three-acre backyard and shaped it into a [...] I’ve been out of town for much of last week, but apparently English has tried again to apologize for his “single mom” snafu. From ESPN’s College Football Nation comes “English pens letter on single moms remark,” which was a “letter to the editor,” though the piece doesn’t say which paper. Anyway, read it yourself. [...] A loyal EMUTalk.org reader sent me this from the Freep.com, “Eastern Michigan coach Ron English sells single moms short,” which is a column by Mick McCabe where he (obviously) takes issue with English’s less than brilliant observation. Here’s a quote: In a July 31 story in the Detroit News, English said: “We wanted guys [...] This from yesterday’s annarbor.com: “Eastern Michigan football coach Ron English tears his team down to properly rebuild his program.” At first, I thought this was going to be a story about Ron English getting emotional and crying, but it turns out to mean “tear down” as in “rebuild.” Here are the opening paragraphs of [...] As noted on the EMU Athletics web site, “EMU Football Picked Sixth in MAC Football Poll.” I don’t want to be a a pessimist here, but this kind of seems like wishful thinking…. The second annual EMUTalk.org College Basketball Tournament Pick’em pool kind of ended in the form of a massive tie, mainly because all 10 participants picked either Kentucky or Kansas for the win. Regardless of our collective lack of pick ‘em prowess, congratulations to MyBracket and Mehmet’s 2010, the tied winners at 63 points and [...] So that means it’s time to pick your picks for the EMUTalk Tourney Pool for the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. Go ahead! Sign up! You’ll be glad you did! In this particular version of the pool, I simply let the computer pick the top seeds for me, but in a version that I really [...] |
