UM-friendly bar locations across the US (and elsewhere)
A couple weeks ago, I put together a google map with all of the Michigan bars I'm aware of (and also everything from the spreadsheet that bouje has been maintaining.) The map is here.
Hopefully this will prevent the "where's the Michigan bar in Pittsburgh/Fresno/Topeka/wherever" threads that pop up every week, but if your favorite gameday hangout isn't on here, put it in the thread and let me know. I'll do my best to keep the map up to date.
2015 QB Josh Rosen offered
Filed under:
Michigan has offered 2015 QB Josh Rosen from California. He was recently ranked the second overall Pro style QB by 247 and 5th ranked player overall in their new 2015 early rankings. Article is paywalled, but the info is in the title. It looks like the coaches will be taking a different approach to the quarterback position in the 2015, and Rosen is a stud that would not only help us in California, but he is also another top prospect that could have an impact like Peppers hopefully will.

Our footballs are made in the USA but not in Ohio
Ada, Ohio is home to the Wilson football factory – the world's only dedicated football factory - meaning many of the pigskins you see flying around NFL and college fields were made in Ohio.
Adidas footballs are made in the USA, but not in Ohio. Definitely not in Ohio.

Pizza Pizza Bowl Fires Back!
it sounds like the Little Caesar's / Illich family will not cede their college football bowl turf to the Fords so easily, announcing that they will explore a college bowl game at Comerica Park.
i can't imagine that the B1G would put another team in Detroit for the bowl season, but this would give all of us up-north man-ball damn-the-weather tough-talkers a chance to go to a game outdoors in Detroit in January or December. the way the college football bowl schedule works with games starting around the 20th of december and some played up until the 10th of january, the games could be far enough apart to not overly fatigue metro Detroit football fans. and surely the Lions will be dead in the water by then.
Surprised to read that there were over 60,000 on hand for Purdue vs Central in 2007, but that last year with a blizzard on the way, there were only 23k for CMU-WKy.
can't we all just get along? or at least alternate years?
