EAST LANSING (AP) — Despite a disappointing .500 record, Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio thinks his program's future is just fine.
The Spartans (5-5, 2-4 Big Ten) can still play in their sixth straight bowl with one more win and would love to send the seniors off with 36 victories by winning three more times, starting with Saturday's senior day visit from Northwestern.
"One of the toughest things as a senior is if you come out flat in your last game at home," Dantonio said Tuesday. "You can't be too saddened by the experience so you're not ready to play. It's an opportunity to showcase your talents one more time in Spartan Stadium in front of your family and friends. Our guys will be ready to play, no question."
Fresh from a bye week, Michigan State knows it will have to finish stronger than it has in four conference losses by a total of 10 points, the same late-game problem that has affected the Wildcats (7-3, 3-3), losers of three games that they led by double digits in the fourth quarter.
"We started working on them last Tuesday and got a little done in advance," Dantonio said of Northwestern's explosive option offense, one that can switch quarterbacks and quickly pose a top passing attack. "We had an advantage in that respect. We also healed up. And we could step back a little and refocus and regenerate our enthusiasm. We needed to do that."
The Spartans need to find the magic that helped them win eight games by eight points or less in back-to-back 11-win seasons. A small-but-successful senior class could be the key to making that happen, with just five potential starters running through the tunnel for the final time -- perhaps part of the problem this year.
Left guard Chris McDonald, defensive tackle Anthony Rashad White, outside linebacker Chris Norman, cornerback johnny Adams and placekicker Dan Conroy are the seniors who have played the most this year. But Dantonio mentioned other veterans like running back Larry Caper, who earned a permanent place in Michigan State lore with a game-winning run against Michigan as a freshman in 2009.
"When you get to your last couple of games and have a bowl opportunity your senior year, time is precious," Dantonio said. "I think all of our seniors right now look at where they're at, the expectations and what they want to accomplish. That's tough to do sometimes. We have two weeks left that are guaranteed for us. We need to make the best of those, come out of it 7-5 and have a good feeling about this football team."
Dantonio wouldn't comment on the potential for a significant number of no-shows with no championship on the line this season. But he did express a great deal of admiration for Northwestern's Pat Fitzgerald, who has faced the Spartans as a two-time All-American linebacker, a champion as a player and an assistant and a successful head coach whose team became bowl eligible more than a month ago.
"I think the trademark of Pat's teams is they play with a great amount of toughness and effort and are always moving forward," Dantonio said. "They're always playing for the next play and are very positive. I have a lot of respect for the way they play and what they've been able to accomplish."

House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio addresses reporters on the "fiscal cliff" negotiations. (Jacquelyn Martin / Associated Press / December 19, 2012) |
WASHINGTON – The lines of communication seem less open.
In a terse statement to reporters made not long after President Obama called on cooler heads to prevail in negotiations on the "fiscal cliff," House Speaker John Boehner said Republicans would press ahead with votes on his so-called Plan B option.
At that point, Boehner said, "The president will have a decision to make. He can call on the Senate Democrats to pass that bill, or he can be responsible for the largest tax increase in American history."
The Ohio Republican said that the president's most recent counteroffer, delivered Monday, still fails to meet the test of balance he's called for.
In an effort to avoid automatic tax hikes scheduled to take effect on Jan. 1, Republicans will vote on legislation to extend current tax rates for all Americans up to $1 million of income.
PHOTOS: Notable moments of the 2012 presidential election
The White House says the president's latest offer is still on the table. When talks seemed to be accelerating Monday night, an aide said the speaker had said he would consider Obama's proposal. Both sides issued statements that included language familiar in the course of these talks, saying the "lines of communication remain open."
If the House were to pass the "Plan B" proposal, it would move on to the Senate, where majority Democrats say it is unlikely to pass. Leaders there, in fact, still express puzzlement at Boehner's strategy.
"One of two things will happen -- either the vote fails, and the speaker has to return to the negotiating table with the president with an even weaker hand. Or the vote passes narrowly, which would only prove that rank-and-file Republicans in the House have become comfortable with a rate increase on the wealthy," Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said, adding that such a step would in fact "make it easier to pass a grand bargain through Congress."

Documents Concerning Auschwitz Guards Found at a Nearby House
In this picture publicly provided by the Auschwitz Memorial Museum on Monday March 22, 2010 a food coupon dated Feb. 2, 1944 is pictured. Food coupons for some of the notorious Nazi doctors at the Auschwitz death camp- including perhaps the sadistic Dr. Joseph Mengele - have been found in the attic of a nearby house, where they had lain unseen for decades. A February 1944 coupon for 0.28 kilograms of butter is made out for a Dr. Mergerle. There was no SS doctor by that name at camp, so the museum believes a clerk misspelled Mengele's name. Doctors and pharmacists at the camp conducted pseudo-medical experiments on the inmates and helped select Jews arriving at the camp for either labor or death. Mengele escaped after World War II and evaded capture for the rest of his life. AP Photo/HO/ Auschwitz Memorial Museum.
The Auschwitz memorial says that documents related to the daily life of the death camp's commanders and guards have been found at a nearby house.
Museum spokesman Pawel Sawicki said Monday that historians have checked through documents such as food coupons, a map and death certificates, and they have more to look through.
The documents more than 200 in total were found recently in the attic of a house being renovated in the southern town of Oswiecim, where the Nazis built the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp.
Between 1940 and 1945 more than 1 million people, mostly Jews, were killed in the gas chambers there or died of starvation or disease while forced to perform hard labor at the camp.

In this episode of WBFDD (What Bougie Folks Don't Do), I'm taking a couple of potshots at the blogosphere. You know what, it's not even potshots… it's simple observation and irritation. Don't get me wrong, I'm immensely honored and flattered to be a finalist for the Black Weblog Awards but it's never been my desire to be the hottest, most popular blog on the internet streets. It's just not that crucial. I have a career, blogging isn't it. So imagine my dismay when some folks (I shan't name names) got all out of pocket on Twitter wondering why "some blogs" were nominated over others. In fact, it was suggested that I (yes me!) do not write about enough "hot topics" to warrant my little nomination. Other folks decided to declare their alliances to certain blogs (not mine); other folks were just flat out rude. Le Boo, Le Damn and Le Sigh.
Most people start a blog because they have something to say. Sometimes just to themselves. People stumble across the blog, agree or disagree, and decide whether or not to visit again. One reader becomes two, two become four and next thing you know; you've built your own little community. Right about then a blogger has to figure out what being true to your original intent and that community means.

Many times we hold ourselves accountable for the things we do and that's all we need. Other times, we need others to help us be accountable for the things we do as well as don't do.
I say this because our health is something that we need to be held accountable for and we need to have our friends and family helps us be accountable for it each and every day.
It's important for people to set goals throughout life and reevaluate those goals to see if they're on the right track.
By setting goals, it makes us aware of what we want to accomplish and by telling someone else those goals, whether it's a family member, friend, co-worker, etc. they can help remind us of those goals if we hit a wall or just lose focus.
I've watched people throughout my time at the YMCA and I've noticed how many people workout with a friend on a regular basis. I actually had two members this week tell me a great story that sparked this week's topic.
These two men work together and workout together here at the Y.
One of them said they were having a rough day earlier this week and his friend/workout buddy poked and prodded him to go workout even though he didn't want to. He eventually caved in and worked out and said it made a huge difference in the rest of his day!
That is what I am talking about!
It's great to have someone to workout with and be your accountability partner. Make sure it is someone who is going to be there for you and be supportive of what you are doing. You are making a commitment to a healthier lifestyle so you need people who will support you throughout the journey. We all have crazy, hectic schedules and day to day tasks, so make a plan with your workout buddy in advance and call, text, or e-mail them (you could do all three if you really want to get the point across and you know they won't get annoyed) to remind them of your plans.
Your accountability partner doesn't even have to actually workout with you unless you want them to.
One thing I've noticed in the past few months is the amount of families that come to the YMCA. The children are actually holding their parents accountable for their health without even realizing it.
Our Vault; an interactive gaming area for members 6-12 years old and is a really cool place for the kids to play! The kids have a fun place to hang out and play interactive games and the parents have the ability to utilize other areas of the YMCA while they are there.
I can not tell you how many times I have heard someone say, "I was not going to come today but my child wanted to come to the Vault so I figured I would workout while they played!"
I love hearing that children are helping to keep their parents active!'
If you are doing your own thing and do not have access to an area like this, get a group of friends together for walks through a park or join a community sports team. Connecting with people who want to do the same type of activities as you will help provide you with a community of support which will aid you achieving your goals.

An analysis of terms used on Twitter has been used to rank Lima the ninth most unhappy city in the nation. The Lima News reports a University of Vermont study looked through geotagged Twitter terms and determined the majority of tweets from Lima had an unhappy tone in 2011. However the methodology of the study has been questioned by more than a few people. Bluffton University Professor Dr. Will Slater told the newspaper Twitter terms aren't exactly hard data, and that it's hard to say the sample size of people tweeting from Lima is inclusive enough of the entire population.

After putting together one of the greatest comebacks runs in Major League Baseball history, the reigning World Series Champion St. Louis Cardinals enter 2012 with high hopes. With only 32 games remaining in the 2011 regular season the Cardinals were 10 ½ games back in the NL Wildcard race; the team suddenly caught fire and paired with the collapse of the Atlanta Braves the Cards snuck their way into the playoffs. Once in the post season, the Cardinals rode their high powered offense, anchored by Albert Pujols and eventual World Series MVP David Freese, all the way to the World Series title.
Looking forward to the 2012 season, the Cardinals will be missing at least one familiar face. For the first time in 16 years the team will be without Manager Tony LaRussa, who retired just 3 days after winning the World Series. Taking over will be former Cardinal gold glove catcher Michael Matheny. At only 41 years of age, he is the youngest manager in the MLB. See how far Matheny can take the Cards in 2012 first hand by calling Gold Coast Tickets today for great seats to any St. Louis game this season.

I bought this piece of furniture for my Granddaughter's room. The Chest has a lot of room, and the drawers are easy for her to open and close. While it's not the highest quality piece we looked at, it was by far the best piece we found for the price.

I love Rivers' competitiveness. I was there for the comeback win versus the Giants in 09? & saw the magic. Since then? I can't deny what 909 is saying as far as feeling that Rivers doesn't come through in the clutch the way he once did. Would I take everyone on his list over Rivers? Hell no - a few, but not all, & the few mainly because they're more mobile & can extend plays better than Rivers. They would all be the younger, more mobile guys - Rodgers & Ryan for starters, RGIII with a couple more years under his belt. A few others could be just as good, but not enough better to warrant a change - Flacco, Cutler ON PHYSICAL SKILLS ALONE, maybe She-li although I'd probably drop the team like a hot potato if that ever happened. PR has made some bone-headed plays the last couple of years, plays where he should have thrown the ball away rather than risk a turnover. Debate the reasons all you like, but the turnover #s are there for all to see. Not sure just when someone had to become a player or expert to post an opinion. If that's the new criteria we'd better just fold this tent & go home.
I think that what's happened since 2009 is that we've had a schism between the evolution that Norv's offensive plays have undergone and the evolution that the roster has undergone. I think that the reason that we were so successful in the regular season in 2009 and have since had the wheels come off is that 2009 was the last time that our personnel matched our plays. We had a relatively decent line in 2009 that was incredibly strong on the left side, Gates was faster, making him more of a threat to the deep middle, and we had 2 large, downfield threats in Floyd and Jackson. Gates was able to dominate the safeties, and Floyd and Jackson were able to exploit the one-on-one match-ups they saw downfield on our long-developing deep plays. Our current situation doesn't see Gates getting bumped by a LB before being passed on to the SS with help from the FS. Gates is single covered, and while he gets open and creates separation using his body, he is no longer the home-run threat he once was, and thus no longer commands the kind of coverage that draws the safeties toward the middle of the field, which is why our receivers are seemingly always double-covered (which is also a reason for a lot of Rivers' picks). On the slightly-before-halftime interception (<<link) in the ATL game, Gates was single-covered by the safety, and whereas his speed used to make that a Charger first down, Gates on an out is going to be a pick every time. I think that what needs to happen is that Norv needs to realize that his players don't create match-up problems for anyone, and that our O-line can't buy Rivers enough time for long-developing plays. We have two fast receivers who are not large men, a featureback, and a slow-possession TE, as well as Floyd, who is as much a possession receiver as he is a number 1. We basically have the 2002 Chargers with a wildly better QB situation and a less elite RB. Until we get a new TE, this won't be a come-back offense, because there's no real threat on it once you eliminate Mathews as an option.
To call out a professional QB and tell us his trophy case is empty (no Lombardi's) and list other QB's with a 10th of past proven body of work is foolish in the least and completely asinine at best. Asserting the image that one may be able to perform at a higher level than the present incumbent, deserves more than a personal "wish" list of assumed replacements under the same pretenses within the present working environment. I do not claim to be an expert in matters of professional football but I know enough to make a fair judgement that since 2009 this team has had many issues to overcome. One of the worst special teams, a paper lion defense along with injuries at epidemic proportion starting in the 2010 season in all phases of the team are most difficult for one position to overcome. River's has made some very poor decisions with the ball and is immobile. Many of the listed QB's that are supposedly better make the same said mistakes, but they play on teams not name the Chargers. I highly doubt any of them in the same circumstance would or could perform much better to bring forth a better outcome for the San Diego Chargers. JMHO.
Captain check down Flacco's offense has more 20+ yard passing plays than any other team in the league.. You are proving my point there, guy. I am saying we have PLENTY of talent, so where's Rivers clutch ability?? lol your post did nothing but prove all my points, all the while you tried to belittle me. Derp?
Buck, RG3 & Luck are ALREADY leading their team to 4th quarter game winning drives. SheEli has proven to have nothing but ice in his veins come the 4th quarter, he's honestly a beast when it comes crunch time. I hate the dude, but that doesn't change the fact that I'd feel WAY more confident with him putting together a game drive over Phil. I am still mind fuked on what the dude in my previous quote was saying. I never said A) We didn't have a legit 1, OR B) Rivers NEEDS a legit #1. I have said we have more talent than people give us credit for, yet it doesn't show come Sunday. -- I do think Norv is to blame for some of this, but he's certainly not throwing INT's in the red zone or on his own 20.
Your reading comp needs some touching up. I NEVER said he had an "empty" trophy case, I said his trophy case hasn't proven him to be an elite qb.. IE no MVP/Super Bowl/SB MVP awards (not that this is the ONLY tell-tell sign of elite, but it's hard to deny someone of being so when they do have those accolades). Quite frankly, what the dude did in high school and college is irrelevant to his pro career.
Everyone has their own standards and yard sticks for QBs. The book hasnt been finished on Rivers. He may end up as an MVP he may not. Same same with Super Bowl regalia... Bottom line, he is who we have, he is better than anyone on our bench and he is a good QB. Also Lets not foreget, a lot of QBs have MVP titles, and Superbowl Regalia and are not elite QBs. Rotty has a ring while having the worst QB rating of a super bowl QB.
Philip gets frustrated and it effects his play too often.. He is not the same qb he was in the beginning oh his career in regards to how he used to be soo good at protecting the ball.. Usually this gets better with experience rivers seems to of gotten worse
I reckon we're in the same boat as I noted he doesn't have a Lombardi. I'm calling BS that you "KNOW" any of your favorite QB's listed could do any better in San Diego than River's has the last two years.
We don't have the talent distribution that is needed for the current evolution of Norv's system when playing from behind.
I think he's grown impatient. He's protected the ball well but his defense never gave him the turnovers or stops that he deserved, and so he's trying to score on every drive.
I agree with 909 that the bolt's have the skill players other than the ones that do the pass blocking.
Which leads to Ikeman's comment above about talent distribution. It seems to me that AJ has had a tendency to draft for "bling" vs. a strong foundation built from the inside out. He invested a little more in the defense the last couple of years & it's paying dividends. OL has to get more attention or Rivers is gonna get killed or regress further.
I think it should be a law that NFL QB's & US presidents can't have a family. It adds to the fearlessness of the individual & limits the influence of having to consider others.
This year i believe the defense is more responsible for our 3 wins than the offense is though... even in our 2 loses rivers led the offense to 3 points against the falcons and against the saints we didnt score a single point for the final 28 minutes of the game, not saying the defense is great but I believe rivers has enough of a supporting cast to get it done this year and lead us to the playoffs without it having to be him taking us there on his back
It's 100% relevant. You can't expect a guy to work miracles when your front office has done nothing to protect him. We fly by year in, and year out with practice squad Olineman. It's amazing that the best years of PR's career was when our OL had a healthy Marcus Mcneil, Pro Bowler Kris Dielman, Hardwick healthy, Goff.....I mean there is a reason that QB's excel when they have more time in the pocket. You just can't expect him to complete 70% of his throws, sitting on his *** 70% of the time. Rivers isn't mobile, therefore the front office needs to start addressing this line to give him time in the pocket. Otherwise, this will continue.
You're failing to understand the question. The question is not whether or not Rivers should be expected to work miracles. The question is whether or not the team can get to/win in the playoffs with Rivers turning the ball over at this rate. This is why it's completely irrelevant.
He's well on his way with an additional 6 tonight. Face it he's crapped it up for us the last two seasons. We'll be lucky to see 7-9 at this rate.
Watching Rivers press conference now. At least he takes full responsibility and admits that all the INT's were on him and his bad throws. He clearly looks distraught but like typical Rivers finds a way to stay positive.
The positive is the October/November schedule. I don't see this team overtaking the donks--no way they'll beat them in Denver where it'll be noisy for PR and quiet for Manning. But wild card still a possibility. Especially with Ravens injury issues and Steelers cratering. Jets could be an issue. That's going to be a tough game in December.
I hope your right, but we are still likely to be one and done if we make it at all. We just don't have the talent across the board. We got some good pieces, but not the whole enchilada as they say.
Rivers gets plenty of blame, but this was a collective crapping of the bed by the offense. Our receivers (including Gates) showed little to not spine in fighting to establish their right to occupy space - the rules are designed now to give the tie to the offense but that doesn't mean squat when you allow yourself to be muscled off your route by a defender who then moves himself right into the position your QB is expecting you to be when he throws it on a deep ball or timing route. Norv - and Rivers - need to just quit trying to prove that we should be this great threat to "go deep" until we have a receiver on this team willing to actually compete for his route and in the air for the ball on those deep routes. Gates doesn't have the long speed to do that anymore, it seems. Meachem is the opposite, he's fast but he lets guys muscle him off his routes far too much. Unless Vincent Brown is in the game, passes over 10-15 yards shouldn't be considered (run decoy routes all you want, but both Norv and Rivers need to know better). Literally, Meach and Royal giving up on their routes were reminiscent of VJax mailing it in on his effort on end zone jump-balls against 5'10" safeties. If AJ is going to insist on not investing premium picks in the trenches he needs to be tossed out on his butt (even his great idol Bill Polian came around to the modern times in that regard, but the consistently successful teams in this modern, pass-happy era are investing on average at least a mid Day 2 pick per year on OL even when they already have a consistent starting 5 in place, and at a greater premium when they don't). And if for some reason he is kept around then we need positional coaches actually capable of developing players (I'd argue we need this regardless). Take a look at Charlie Joyner... that's the example that should be reflected in every other positional coach we have. It's currently reflected in maybe two others (if we count Bisaccia as a positional coach, otherwise it's just Don Johnson; Joe Barry hasn't been with the team long enough to get a proper sample size). Ron Meeks, Hal Hunter, Ollie Wilson, Mike Sullivan, these guys are the scrubs of NFL coaches breeding the same poor technique and lack of accountability. For all the crap play they had today, I can flat out guarantee that Joyner takes his unit back behind the woodshed over the next week, reads them the riot act, and kicks their behinds in practice. I have absolutely no confidence in Hunter/Sullivan, Wilson, or Meeks to do even remotely close to the same.
Then you're honestly a fool. Charlie has worse happy feet than Philip has. Phil played like crap tonight. Our entire offense sold him out and he did little more than they did. But that still doesn't qualify hyperbole as being true. For your own health and the sake of what you may be able to salvage of your legacy, Rivers, now would be the time to NOT toe the company line and, through the proper channels (i.e. not publicly through the media), make it known in the organization that you expect better protection to be provided to you and that the current provisions are not adequate.

Under the plan being considered by the County Board of Supervisors, all of Old Bethpage and randomly scattered portions of Plainview would be joined in rag-tag fashion in a 14th Legislative District whose core would be Bethpage and Farmingdale. The northwestern corner of Plainview would be joined with most (but not all) of the eastern half of Plainview in a crazy-quilt 12th District which would meander from the Nassau/ Suffolk line across the Oyster Bay Town line and into North Hempstead, collecting bits and pieces of various communities from Woodbury to Westbury along the way. Speaking through its attorney, Aaron Britvan, at the March 24 hearing on the Legislative plan before the Board of Supervisors, the Association urged that the lines be redrawn so that all of Plainview-Old Bethpage would be encompassed within a single mingdale in June, 1975. The Aggies will inaugurate their tough, 14-game schedule on March 25 hosting the Cornell Fr. at 1 P.M. On March 27th, the Aggies will host the Brown University Fr. at 3 P.M. District.
