'08 MN WR Michael Floyd (Signed LOI to ND)

[arahop]

Calling his alma mater racist because it's located near a crappy, crime infested area of South Bend? I mean, maybe he did experience some prejudice on campus but this didn't happen there.

Maybe he just affiliates ND with South Bend. If that's the case, sorry Mike, they are not one and the same. Shoot, I never have any qualms about getting out of my car on campus but when I have to visit certain areas of SB, I am in and out.

You do realize you can hit a pitching wedge from NDs campus to Brothers right? Have you been in the area at all the 5 years?

Since when is drunkenly touching random butts frowned upon and/or illegal?

 

[GBdomer]

Big Mike is a complete bonehead. Always has been and always will.

Yes, very immature and that's why AZ tried trading him last offseason IMO. He's still a kid and ND probably helped him more then he even realizes.

 

[military_irish]

When I met Mike, when he was a sophomore, he was a really nice guy. But alcohol is a very dangerous substance even though it is legal. I hope he straightens himself out and knows how to regulate his intake.

With that being said, I hate Brothers. They create problems where no problems exist. I enjoy the atmosphere but there has been times I was accepted and denied. For the craziest reasons.

I won't use the race card but they do use the "social status" card. If you don't appear "high class" you'll probably not be treated well.

I have never been to this Brothers actually but it's so weird that they act like that because every other Brothers I have ever been to was a hive of scum and villainy.

Brothers is a horrible place with sticky floors that exists in nearly every college town.

 

[IrishLion]

The Brothers near me has a "no flat bills" and "no sports jerseys" and "no tattoos above the chest" dress code.

And that tells you what you need to know about Brothers*.



*It's actually a nice, chill, clean place to drink on the river during the week. But stay away Thursday-Saturday, as it transforms into something other.

Ahh yes the infamous NKY Brothers. Great view of Cincinnati, not a great view of the NKY population.

Sounds more like No-Brothers.

I am still searching for the good view of the NKY population......

We don't claim the people that frequent Brothers on any night resembling "Club Night."

 

[theclassickiller]

to suggest that police treat white ppl the same as black ppl is naïve at best.

Eh, sort of, but evidence shows that perception is FAR from reality...

5 Statistics You Need To Know About Cops Killing Blacks | Daily Wire

These are just a few of the hundreds of articles showing that the media has blown the cops vs. black people WAY out of proportion. Sure there are some dumb cops. But there are dumb cops shooting white people for no reason too. It's a narrative that holds a little truth, but little is the key word.

 

[Irish#1]

How quickly we forget who helped whom here when there was a problem with alcohol while playing at ND.

 

[irishandy]

C'mon Mike, you are better than this!

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Those damn Weis recruits, it's all his fault!!!!!

my stats and opinion come from what I have seen with my own eyes repeatedly again and again over the past 43 years. Frankly, and respectfully, I don't give 2 sh*ts what some article(s) on the internet says, just because its on the internet doesn't mean its true. I've seen it in no uncertain terms play out time and time again. You can have the last word on this if you like, but my opinions on this subject are unwavering.

You're right, facts are no substitute for limited personal experience.

I think its naive to assume his experience is limited. He's speaking over 43 years of experience in all of the places he's lived, worked and traveled. It's an extremely common perspective and the "polling" in the link (Internet knows all, after all) gives no references to their method of polling.

Blindly believing Internet "facts" is jus as naive as taking one guys personal experience, imo.

 

[phgreek]

just took the time to read the latest saga. Makes me sad. I thought mike was a decent guy with some maturity issues...appears that has not completely been resolved.

Hope he gets his head right. I think by now he has had enough examples of how he and booze get along. Time to grow up Mike. If you need help, get help, but you can't drink...pretty obvious.

 

[BostonND]

I overlapped at ND with Floyd for a couple of years, and I've heard a couple of pretty bad stories about him from friends. I think the guy needs a lot of help, given his rough family background and apparent affinity for alcohol.

Get the fuck outta here with random posts like this.

Neg rep worthy.

Don't you know the rules? Only certain people are allowed to resurrect threads out of nowhere. Quit lurkin' so much and start posting so maybe someday you can be in the random thought club.

Cool story bro. Necromancy timing right before the start of the season isn't troll-esk at all.

In the regional diction of your peers in bean town, get da fuck outta ear.

What has happened to him? Completely fell off. Is it to much of the sauce?

I would say that he is missing Palmer, but Floyd didn't do much when CP was playing either. His high game this year is 65yds. Only 12 receptions on 32 targets is not good either. I haven't really watched him this year, but at very least he has a couple of TDs.
