Be Safe, Be Loud & Be A Family
I wanted to wish everyone a safe trip to A2 if you're traveling for the game. I'm leaving this evening from Philly.
I will be on MGOBLOG blackout as I will be with my future inlaws who frown upon Iphone use at their home until Sat morning. Actually at & t has no service there so no updates for me until I hit Youngstown.
For those of you coming to the game you know the stakes for us and who is going to be in the crowd( HA HA, Dee etc) so lets give them the not wine & cheese welcome and get that place rocking.
For those of you who can't make it to the game be loud as well let everyone know that Michigan is back and be proud to wear your gear everywhere even in OHIO. No matter what has happen the one thing that we all can agree on is we are family.
We have faced more crap in the past 3 years then any other fan base and we stood tall and now its time for our young team to grow up and start shutting people up by smashing them in the mouth.
The time for talk is over boys & girls , the time for us to sing the Victors is back!
Go Blue!

Hell yes!
The "M" flag will be flying from my porch in Portland, OR!

Will you be at the Thirsty Lion? For my one season out there that was a great venue. It was also before BTN had been picked up by Comcast, so my options were limited. But it was a great time nonetheless.

but I try to make it down for a couple. I do usually have a good time there.

I will be flying my M flag here in Dayton, OH!
September 2nd, 2010 at 2:59 PM ^
that will be flying in Portland, OR on Saturday. Where are you KBLOW? I'm in St. Johns in N. Portland. Go Blue!

Ditto - my block M flag, Michigan garden gnome and block M lawn decorations have been out for 2 days.
September 2nd, 2010 at 1:14 PM ^
I'm down with everything you said except for the gnomes. They frighten me.
September 2nd, 2010 at 11:57 AM ^
Can we have an awkward dinner together with lots of passive aggressive comments and someone running out crying in the middle? That kind of family?
September 2nd, 2010 at 12:27 PM ^
I hate you!
September 2nd, 2010 at 1:52 PM ^
I had no idea you were on here...

I'll be sitting in the UConn section (15, row 15) wearing my Maize and Blue and cheering about as loud as I can. I hope there are other wolverines near me so we can high five over the UConn fans often! After Michigan wins (by 10) I'll let the east coasters buy me a beer.
September 2nd, 2010 at 12:31 PM ^
The "M" flag is out and waving in Tampa, FL. We will be loud and proud as we watch our boys take home the W on Saturday.
Go Blue!

Wait, how has nobody commented on this whole "frowning" on iPhone use thing. I understand that you don't want to offend your future in-laws (wait until after the wedding for that), but do you really want to miss out on Brian's game preview?
These sound like tough in-laws, and as an MGoBlog brother, I am concerned for you.
September 2nd, 2010 at 12:51 PM ^
I sense some long bathroom breaks coming on.
September 2nd, 2010 at 12:54 PM ^
Computer reading MgoBlog i might as well kiss my you know what good bye... At & t service in Western PA is crap , plus this is like X-MAS I'll wait to Michigan day( Saturday) to read my MgoBlog Present.
Go Blue!

As a concerned mgoblog brother, I think we need to have an intervention.

riding with his motorcycle club to New York this Friday, and because they'll be driving through Ohio, he had me paint the Michigan wings on his helmet. Needless to say, he's ready for the season.
September 2nd, 2010 at 1:17 PM ^
Yeah, he's getting pulled over.
September 2nd, 2010 at 1:20 PM ^
my friend
September 2nd, 2010 at 3:12 PM ^
as you cruise through OH.
September 2nd, 2010 at 1:29 PM ^
I think i'm looking forward to seeing Brock lead the team out of that tunnel as much as i am the game!!
September 2nd, 2010 at 2:09 PM ^
We are travelling back to Ann Arbor with 4 families with a total of 16 people. For most it will be their first game ever. Can't wait to park on the golf course and crack open an ice cold beer and play a few games of tailgate golf. Go Blue!!!!
September 2nd, 2010 at 2:40 PM ^
Headed to A2 from upstate NY! Can't wait to see Brock lead the boys out to dominate the Huskies. If you see a fan that's not getting loud politely ask them to step it up!! We need this place rocking!!

My only request is that all of those in attendance support the team and coach during the game. Nothing is more frustrating than hearing some moron scream "Fire RichRod!" the first time someone drops a pass, we have to punt, or the other team gets a first down.
We all have our opinions about how the team should look, what they should do, and what they should have done during a game. However, let's make a strong impression on the visiting fans and potential recruits by supporting our team from start to finish, and remember that the game is about the players on the field...not your like/dislike for the coach.
Off my soapbox now...GO BLUE!

Safe travels to all coming from outside AA! Going to be great to watch Brock lead the team out of the tunnel. Not a dry eye in the house!!
