You even want to take a picture with Charles Woodson, but never had the chance? Now you can.  At least at Mott's Children's Hospital.

 

With the help of “3D Woodson,” a new mobile app custom made for Mott, Woodson can be brought to life by any Mott visitor with an iPad or iPhone. The technology behind the app, called augmented reality, has never been used in a healthcare setting before.

Just point and SHAZAAM, he's there with you.  Woodson in your pocket (or tote bag).

You can get the App here-

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!  What is wrong with people in general?  some people sit at football games, some people stand?  how stupid can you get!!!!!  Its obvious everyone should learn to float and we wouldnt have these problems.  And the arguments about piped in music vs. the band?  how dumb can people get, its obvious that we should play both the entire game as loud as we can.  And don't even get me started on the fact michigan students don't know how to cross the street, one of these days................BAM, 10 points!!  People suck!!!

[Ed-M: Read the FAQ people!]

So I was at a football game last weekend and I was speaking to someone who happened to be a Michigan fan as well.

We quickly learned that we're both into every facet for Michigan Football, blah, blah, blah...he asked me which message board I liked most. I told him that I've done them all, but there is one that is head and shoulders above all of the rest. MGoBlog.com

He responds, "yea...I like there stuff, but I can't understand it half the time because of all the acronyms and slang terms...and WTF is taco pants?!"

I first explained taco pants because that was most important. And then I thought to myself, you know what I should start? An MGoBlog Glossary...an MGoGlossary.

 

So here it is, please add your MGoBlog acronyms for our newer folks, older folks, and people who've just let the orginal explanations fly over their heads like a pass to Jason Avant back in the day.

 

I'll start:

UFR = Upon Further Review

I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore...yes I am. Why? Because I love college sports. Sorry for the late night rant about problems that can't be solved, mainly because those making the money don't see it as a problem. After watching TV and not going 5 min without being encouraged to call my local cable subscriber to get the Longhorn Network I go to ESPN.com and find an article based on a study ESPN has commissioned evaluating their impact on college sports (http://espn.go.com/espn/story/_/id/7149965/espn-middle-college-realignment) It's clear the goal of this was to exonerate ESPN and yet by the time I was done reading, I was even more pissed off at them. So I thought, I'll go to the college football main page to actually read about the game I love. Of the 11 standard headlines on the page, 2 actually dealt with playing games. The other nine were all about money, and bigger scoreboards (ND), players in trouble, re-alignment, etc. It's the middle of the season!!! I wish the powers that be, the media, and every other greedy jerk would leave the game we all love alone so we could all...you know...enjoy the game. Rant over. Get off my lawn. Thank you.

In a great feat of not paying attention to my wife, I managed to be surprised by a birthday copy of Three and Out, despite the fact that she asked me for its title several times in the days leading up to my birthday. In addition, and not at all to emphasize that she makes way more money than I do, she gave me a note for an MGoBlog donation of some yet-to-be-determined amount. I don't know how much to tell her to donate, so I thought I'd put it out there for the MGoCommunity to weigh in. (Please keep in mind that, while she is outearning me like its the alternate reality 50s, neither of us is making bank, so keep it reasonable.)

A lot of the site's fancy doohickeys are busted at the moment because javascript is not loading consistently. I'm looking into the issue.
