U.S. Will Not Get Back on Track Without Better Leaders

by Andrew Kalenkiewicz

I certainly wasn’t surprised when the results came in on the evening of November 6th, but I must say I was a little disappointed at how irreverently anticlima­­­­ctic it all was. Here we had a president with the worst record since Carter, running on empty platform, and he still won reelection. I can still here [...]

Although it may not be a particularly large city, nobody can deny that Arbor exhibits wealth of exceptional restaurants and diners guaranteed to satisfy even the most critical foodie.

The GOP is Going Nowhere Until it Finds Itself a Leader

by Andrew Kalenkiewicz

The next few months are projected to entail a long, bitter battle between Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum, with neither candidate [...]

And so Michigan football will face its biggest test, undefeated again…

by Andrew Kalenkiewicz

Here we stand, six weeks into the season, and six victories for the Maize and Blue. Michigan’s first road win of the season had some impressive moments, despite a fairly sloppy start. Brady Hoke and co. found themselves down 24-14 after two quarters, in a first half that seemed all too reminiscent of the first half they had [...]

A dominant performance, but the true tests come next…

by Andrew Kalenkiewicz

The stat line says it all. Michigan: 570 yards of offense, 32 first downs, 8.7 yards per catch, and 7.6 yards per carry in an absolutely commanding performance all around.  Minnesota: 177 yards and 0 points. Let’s put it this way; Vincent Smith became the first college football player since 2009 to run, catch, and throw for a touchdown [...]

What 4-0 Really Means

by Andrew Kalenkiewicz

Four weeks into the season and Michigan football is 4-0. For many Wolverines fans, tis’ the season for wild, unsubstantiated analyses and predictions. Oh, joy. I, for one, am going to wait a few more weeks before putting up the lights. That’s because, if you happen to have been paying attention over the past two [...]

Stop rooting for your conference, seriously

by Andrew Kalenkiewicz

Anyone who follows the college football scene these days knows knows about the potential conference realignment time-bomb that’s been ticking for the past few weeks. At this point, it seems that the changes made to the Big 10 (er… 12?), Big 12 (10?), and Pac-10 (12) over the past few years were only the tip of the [...]

Euphoria, albiet ominous

by Andrew Kalenkiewicz

Euphoria. Complete and utter jubilation, Maize and Blue style. In the words of David After Dentist, “Is this real life?” I think it’s pretty safe to say that the first night game in Michigan history started off as a big deal, but will ultimately go down in history as one of the most exhilarating, mind-boggling [...]
