I am sick to my stomach once again. It is not because I ate some nasty food during tailgates Saturday, but from watching the MSU football game against Minnesota.
Since the Spartan’s debacle in Iowa City on Oct. 12, my opinion@statenews.com mailbox has been overflowing with letters to the editor calling for his job.
As a recent graduate who has moved out of Michigan, I frequently look for ways to check up on the happenings at MSU. Well, fortunately for me, one of the ways to do this and see the greatness of my old school is to watch Spartan football on national television.
While a great deal of Spartan fans are calling for Bobby Williams to be terminated as football head coach, MSU’s woes will not stop if he is fired.
I have attended many MSU football games over my 18-plus years of watching Spartan sports and never have I seen such a lack of emotion on a team in my life.
A short while ago, I sat shocked and horrified as I watched news coverage of the aftermath of a youth football game somewhere in the wilds of California.
Life is a precious gift. Everyone is given this amazing opportunity when they are brought into the world.
Internationally respected Big Ten university seeks leader to bring its talented football team and program to national prominence.

I remember when former President Ronald Reagan ran for re-election in 1984. He asked, “Are you better off now than you were four years ago?” Most people said “Yes,” and Reagan got four more years.
The boundary between East Lansing and Bath Township quickly has become a new center for student housing.
Fraternities, such as Delta Chi, are inexcusably trying the patience of their community by repeatedly violating noise ordinances as well as a long-standing general code. The East Lansing Housing Commission on Thursday suspended the fraternity’s rental license for 180 days beginning Jan.
So much promise with so little results. That is the story of the MSU football program. How does a team that went 10-2 three seasons ago compile records of mediocrity the past two and, now, the possibility of not even making a bowl game.
I was horrified when I read the quote from football head coach Bobby Williams saying MSU’s football woes are the entire team’s fault (“Gridders losing ways continue,” Statenews.com 10/19). This only solidifies the many reasons why MSU should not wait until the end of the season to lose Williams.
Football head coach Bobby Williams must go. Being an effective recruiter - which he is - does not translate into being an effective head coach - which he is not. Williams has had plenty of time to reveal his effectiveness and has failed miserably. This was the year to take the program to the next level.
I never imagined myself saying this, but life is better without television. I have not watched an entire episode of a sitcom, drama, reality series, award shows, or anything else, for that matter, in about two months.
The Vatican’s stance toward U.S. bishops’ zero-tolerance policy on sexually abusive priests is inadequate and raises questions to the papacy’s commitment to combat child molestation by clergymen. The Vatican announced Friday that the policy adopted by the U.S.
Cell phone usage while driving is just one item on a long list of self-centered things people do that are not just annoying to others, but rude, hurtful, insensitive and downright rotten.
In December 1999, about 50 football players gathered at Cowles House to plead the case for their running backs coach to lead the team.
A note to the MSU community: You deserve better, period. After yet another debacle on the field Saturday, the last straw has been drawn.
Football head coach Bobby Williams is a disgrace to Spartan football. We, as Spartan fans, should consider a boycott of football games until he is replaced.
