Folks, the next time you’re scheduling a call with someone you assume lives in the Central time zone, remember: Detroit is farther east than Atlanta. https://t.co/rr6D95Ceet — PolitiTweet.org

I’m done screaming about this, so will conclude by saying 9-2 (hopefully 10-2) and a potential New Years Day bowl is unreal considering where this program was 18 months ago. Mel has worked miracles. Today is pathetic and inexcusable, but it doesn’t change any of that. — PolitiTweet.org

The truth is (the consensus among fellow Spartans) this team would have 4 wins, maybe 5, without Kenneth Walker III. We’re obviously not as good as the record indicates. Which is all the more reason to feed the man for 60 minutes and win or lose that way. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

Btw I never tweet during games, for superstitious reasons, but this game has been over since Mel sent the FG unit out. — PolitiTweet.org

MSU was never going to win this game. But there was a path to keeping it competitive. And that path, however narrow, was #K9ForHeisman carrying the ball 8-10 times per quarter, bleeding clock, slowing the pace. This offensive gameplan is an abject embarrassment. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

It’s almost like all week long, when everyone with a pulse understood the only chance MSU had was to shorten the game, keep the Buckeye defense on the field, limit their offensive possessions, Mel and his Rhodes Scholars said “Nah, way too obvious, let’s come out and chuck it!” — PolitiTweet.org

Exhibit infinity of my longstanding theory that football coaches think they are, in fact, nuclear physicists, immeasurably smarter than the boorish fan base, and therefore must prove it by making decisions contrary to what is obvious to anyone with eyes and a brain — PolitiTweet.org

First 22 plays from scrimmage = 3 carries for the nation’s best back Great approach when you want to shorten the game Is Jay Johnson on drugs? — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

@zackstanton @jsthorpe2 Yes. And I can’t decide whether that’s made it easier to deal with (we’ve been through this before) or harder (how is this happening again?) — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

Someday I'll write about the last 15 years, aka the Dark Ages For Detroit Sports, and explain that it's not just the losing (yes, there's been lots of it) but the agony of cultivating such rare talents and witnessing such individual greatness with no championships to show for it. — PolitiTweet.org

The Cunningham-Green beef is the best thing to happen to the NBA since LeBron came into the league. Two legitimate budding superstars who legitimately dislike one another. — PolitiTweet.org

We're not talking web producers and copy editors, because web producers and copy editors aren't making coverage decisions. Again - a third time! - it's a broad brush, but always consider the relationship between people who shape the news and how that news affects them personally. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

@KFILE Fair -- although noticing it and being affected by it are not the same thing. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

Again, it's a broad brush, but are cable news executives freaking out over their utility bills? Are managing editors -- those who own cars, that is -- filling up with a quarter-tank at a time? Am I crossing bacon and ground beef off my grocery list and cutting coupons for milk? — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

I'd argue the inflation crisis is a blind spot for much of the national media, because much of the national media is insulated from it. This isn't an attack; just a reality check on the financial conditions & economic habits of the people (myself included) who bring you the news. — PolitiTweet.org
