…FootballSaturday, October 4, 2019 3B What to watch for: Iowa The only real consensus among pundits and fans about Saturday’s game against No. 14 Iowa is that it will be very, very revealing. In all likelihood, No. 19 Michigan’s true capability as a team is somewhere between the one that got run out of Camp Randall Stadium on Sept. 21 and the one that shut out Rutgers last Saturday at the Big House. But where on that spectrum it...…

…FootballSaturday, October 4, 2019 6B If Michigan wants to move forward, it can start this week T here’s a kind of routine to this by now. Michigan goes on the road and loses to a better team. It comes back home and spends the next week talking about a refo- cused energy. It beats up on a bad team or two, calming things down before the next real opponent comes into town. Still, the initial loss casts a pall. From there, it goes on...…

When my mom saw my handiwork later th...…

Those were the rules, but I remember when I realized I was allowed to break them. I think this was one of the mome...…

…Though marijuana has been legalized in one form or another in 47 states and Washington D.C., it is not legal at the federal level.
