Pretty funny tweet from "The Opening"
I'm not a biological engineer, but me thinks that Mr. Standifer isn't pleased with the team selections.
Not sure how I feel about that attitude ...
I can see how it may look bad but my initial thought is he is very competitive and just wants to win. That is a good quality to have.
my thought is that he's 17 and he doesn't like the team he's on
I am glad he didn't tweet something that was like
-wow these guys are really great
-These teammates are really protecting my ass
-I don't belong here with these guys...
To me, that is confidence and tells me that he more than belongs there and is better at what he does than his teammates...all alluding to the thought that he is way underrated
Lighten up. Its a tweet. Don't take it so seriously.
I guess I just hope there are no other UM targets/recruits on that team. Might rub someone the wrong way. I'm not flippin out about it or anything.
Maybe. But I've been on some bad little league teams where the players on the team would joke about how bad we are. I don't think that the other players ever took it personally.
Is any kind of an expert on 7 on 7 team selections mind you.
who is that?
oh ok thanks for the edit
I will never get used to the atrocious spelling and grammar on twitter. It makes my eye twitch.
Overall, I agree with you. But this is a pretty good tweet. Grammatically, at least.
Well I made the mistake of reading the twitter feed and all the "are" instead of "our" mistakes made me a little sad inside. You can throw in the "loosing" instead of "losing" too.
I know that it is just kids being kids and no one really cares on twitter or text messages but I still die a little.
Your eye twitcher?
Standifer's team was pretty bad, but the bright side is his side of the field was rarely thrown to. Did pretty solid in the 1 on 1 drills.
OT just a little bit-
Well this is my first post on mgoblog, so can't quite make a thread. Just saw a tweet by UMGoBlog saying "Standout Flint DT Dan O'Brien Names #Michigan in His Top Two and Praises the Staff ... http://ow.ly/5Ar79 #GoBlue #Football #Wolverines". The article says it's between us and Tennessee:)
But check the threads below the next time, that had already been posted in a previous thread. It's hard to beat most of these guys to any kind of important update on recruits.
Haha, thought I'd seen it first. Will do though.
he didn't start a thread that would clutter up the menu... or is this the new thing, policing and bitching about repetition in the individual posts?
I'm just looking out for the guy.
what a guy...very awesome of you
But, nothing funny about MaxPreps currently ranking his recruiting class #1 with a green up arrow!
Don't know if the source's verible, but hey! Thought it was interesting.
I like your combo of "credible" and "verifiable" into "verible." Very nice.
He's a veritable wordsmith.
that twitter should be hit hard with a ten ton atomic bomb.
I can die now
Soooo good!
There was a Madden 11 tournament, and he was stuck with the Panthers.
Another little funny comment from The Opening - ESPN went around and asked a bunch of the recruits who their favorite athlete is, and most of the responses were NFL stars at their positions.
Joshua Garnett's answer was "Zach Banner, because he's a great person with a 34 inch vertical and 4.6 40 and is an amazing athlete and I just wish I could be like him"
and my favorite was Erik Magnuson, who answered, "Justin Beiber, because he's a natural born athlete and works hard"

for those posters who can't wait to see Magnuson and Lewan on the field together, to say nothing of the dining hall. I bet they could even cheer Standifer up.
Does anyone have a link to the team selections. I looked for more than 5 minutes and couldn't find it.
Thanks
Great attitude. How is he going to react when he is placed on UM's MAC level defense.
It totally amazes me that you have any positive points.
He's a teenager they tend to say how they feel, and he was right the didnt win one game, someone must be bored cause your makin a mountain out of nothin......bring on College Football....GBOD!!!!!!!!
Go
Blue
Or
Die
