POSBANG threads and snowflake threads are the dumbest shit on this site.
December 31st, 2013 at 1:07 PM ^
I think we should have a thread called "Posbang Thread: Snowflakes" where we discuss how the most recent posbang went
December 31st, 2013 at 11:23 AM ^
Speak for yourself Mr. Dudeness. I would take a coaching snowflake thread over 45 melt down/fire Al Borges/I feel the need to express my opinion because it is so wonderful and correct threads after every game.
While posbang threads are pointless. They do help morale. Something we missed a lot this year.
December 31st, 2013 at 11:30 AM ^
Morale is a word used by the weak.
December 31st, 2013 at 11:43 AM ^
Contentment is moral decay

I don't know about what happiness is, but I know what it isn't:
December 31st, 2013 at 11:12 AM ^
Happy New Year everybody!
December 31st, 2013 at 11:15 AM ^
Beat Toronto!
December 31st, 2013 at 11:15 AM ^
Clients are too damn demanding.
Is it bad that I don't even feel like going out or doing anything tonight?

Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like that will be what Drew Dileo looks like at the age of 35.

Good riddance 2013, hello 2014!!!
December 31st, 2013 at 11:24 AM ^
I wish all of you the blessing of well functioning bowels in the coming year, as there is little as satisfying as a good movement.
Also, Go Blue!
December 31st, 2013 at 11:26 AM ^
Good riddance 2013. Worst year of my life and M sports failures were just the sprinkles on a dog-shit of a year. Cheers to a much much better 2014 for all.
December 31st, 2013 at 11:26 AM ^
I never like to wish time away because it is truly a blessing, and goes by too fast as it is.
However, I am really looking forward to 2014, and all that lay in store in the New Year.
No matter how dire the sports situation gets in football, there is always plenty of excellence to point to within the University of Michigan. For that, I am always thankful.
Also, I am thankful for this blog and all of your insightful comments, though I may not agree with all of them. It has really helped me keep my sanity throughout this football season.
Happy New Year to all!

Glad you posted this so I don't have to now.

There's way too much red in the Big House for my liking, but I guess I'll deal with it since it's for the Wings.

2014 can't be any worse, right?
December 31st, 2013 at 11:50 AM ^
A UM great. Very sad.... this has to be one of the worst two months in MIchigan Athletics. Screw 2013.
December 31st, 2013 at 11:51 AM ^

Mostly, 2013 turned out to be a reasonably good year for me. M Basketball kept me going early in the year when things at work were looking pretty bleak. My daughter did very well in her vocal music competitions, my son started charting his own path, my wife found fulfillment as a volunteer, and business picked up for me by the end of the year.
I realize I am blessed in more ways than I can count. So, I'll ring in 2014 with hope for better days for myself, my family, my community and - somewhere down the list - for U-M.
Go Blue. Happy New Year.
December 31st, 2013 at 12:09 PM ^

I am posting this from my underground bunker. Just to be safe, I am not coming out until every time zone has passed into 2014. Not taking any chances, as 2013 was just too scary of a bitch to mess with.
Happy New Year everyone, and Go Blue! Here's to a better year . . .
