I don't know if it was as much of MSU taking care of business as it was Northwestern handing them the game.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:23 PM ^
but I get GT on Espn. Ugh...
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:23 PM ^
MSU is the worst 8-0 team ever. Also, the dumbest team ever. Even after they get the pick to seal the game, the idiot LB tries to run it back, risking a fumble. This after keeping the game alive with the late TD. Stupid and mediocre teams should not win the Big 10.
I am beginning to wonder if God is falling for Dantonio's "gotta go pray" bullshit the same way that the media have.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:50 PM ^
Do you enjoy embodying the stereotype of the "arrogant Michigan fan"?
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:24 PM ^
holy shit, texas is only down 28-21. 3:15 left.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:25 PM ^
Reporter asked Joe Pa what happened to Kevin Newsome. Joe Pa replied "Who?"
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:25 PM ^
needs to stop coaching. Did you hear him in the postgame interview? He didn't even know who Kevin Newsome was.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:28 PM ^
Haha, Lou Holtz: "It's a shame that the Naval Academy is overemphasizing football and putting national security at risk."
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:36 PM ^
He didn't actually say that, did he? That's just annoying.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:37 PM ^
What the hell is UT's problem this season? This ISU team got demolished by OU last week.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:43 PM ^
Love it.
Well, at least you have basketball, and MSU isn't your rival! No big deal.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:51 PM ^
...multiple sclerosis? If you don't, you must be a bad person.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:54 PM ^
So to celebrate your win, the first thing you do is go on a michigan blog?
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:00 PM ^
The word is *their*, and I have nothing against Microsoft. MSU, on the other hand, is a mediocre team that has been fortunate to have some lucky bounces and a soft schedule. Part of me hopes that they meet Boise State in the NCG so that they can get stomped by a team that nobody even thinks is all that good. Overrated, meet underrated.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:43 PM ^
Because you guys seem really, really, REALLY bothered by that win.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:47 PM ^
So we are watching other people's games BRAH. We generally don't want you guys to win BRAH.
Did I put in enough BRAHs so you could comprehend what I was saying? I tried keeping the sentences short as well, for your convenience.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:53 PM ^
Ah yes, attacking my intelligence. I guess next you're going to tell me go go set a couch on fire, right? Hey man, I've watched several UM games this year. Believe it or not, I actually don't mind when you guys win when you're not playing MSU. I hate tOSU and ND more than you guys, believe it or not. It's really too bad because I think Brian is a pretty damn good writer and there is a TON of great breakdown here. What is unfortunate is that a lot of non-UM fans here are negatively rated just because they bring opposing viewpoints. I wish some would grow thicker skin. My UM alum friends are for the most part cool as hell. It's the Walverine nation that gives you guys a bad name.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:06 PM ^
You are because you just came on to gloat. You're too much of a coward to come on when MSU was losing, heck, didn't even have enough faith when they took the lead. Just after it was done. It's not your viewpoints; it's that you're bring a dick, and a cowardly one at that.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:19 PM ^
In fact he's being downright open and nice with the whole thing. Typical Sparty would be here shoving it in your face...
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:24 PM ^
That's exactly what he's doing.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:09 PM ^
I hate tOSU and ND more than you guys, believe it or not.I don't think you realize who you're talking to. ND maybe. Just maybe.
October 23rd, 2010 at 5:03 PM ^
I meant *I* hate tOSU and ND more than UM.
October 23rd, 2010 at 5:16 PM ^
Gotcha. Makes more sense now.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:56 PM ^
Short like the last three years conference win column?
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:59 PM ^
Another obsessed one. Your team wins, and you actually take the time so sign up and spew awful trash talk on a michigan blog?
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:06 PM ^
We do agree on something. 4 conference wins in three years is awful.
October 23rd, 2010 at 5:02 PM ^
Yup it is, and so is 36 arrests in 2 years.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:00 PM ^
Strange that M fans (graduates?) are so preoccupied with MSU. Don't they understand the difference between hate and contempt? Doesn't wanting MSU to lose every week make you the little bro by your own logic?
Also, idk what this "brah" thing is about.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:19 PM ^
1) This is a BYE week. When not watching Michigan, most fans watch other Big Ten games.
2) We might be jealous if we thought that MSU was a great team and was flat out beating other teams. They have looked very mediocre for much of the season, and have been fortunate to be playing teams like NW and Illinois when playing so poorly. I think that they are massively overrated, but have not been exposed yet. Because of the soft schedule, they only have one game of consequence remaining. Kind of like Boise State, most people don't think that MSU is worthy of their lofty ranking, which is why they want them to lose.
3) MSU loses a ton of their starters next year, while Michigan returns the vast majority of ours. MSU fans should probably enjoy their time in the limelight, because next year will probably be very different.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:40 PM ^
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:50 PM ^
Hey Brah, have you read this thread??? You guys ALWAYS want MSU to lose to whomever they're playing. ROTFLMAO. You're favorite teams? Anyone playing MSU and whichever community college you graduated from.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:53 PM ^
who cheers for UM to win every game, right?
Oh, right, Dantonio would rather UM lose than MSU go to the Rose Bowl. Your argument is invalid.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:55 PM ^
Coming from some guys who celebrate their team's big win by going and signing up on an opposing team's site to comment there, rather than celebrate with their fans. Who's obsessed? We're not going over there...
<br>
<br>And I'm be more impressed if you actually had some balls, and weren't a total coward, and had chimed in when they were losing. But you were probably peeing yourself too much at that point.
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:58 PM ^
There are actually quite a few Wolverine posters at tRCMB. Some take their lumps when UM loses, and some do not.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:02 PM ^
They're just as pathetic as you.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:07 PM ^
Like I said, I think Brian is actually a damn good writer and there is great breakdown here. Which is why I chose to come here for UM analysis. Some of us actually read a lot (or all) of our fellow Big Ten team sites. It's because, you know, we are fans of the game. The NFL doesn't do a ton for me other than my fantasy league and the woeful Lions. I chose to absorb NCAA info. Forgive me for coming here if it offends you so much. I actually like reading breakdowns and analysis of other Big Ten teams and what their fans have to say. Obviously, this is the place to come for UM. Is my presense really that offensive to you?
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:13 PM ^
It's not your presence that is offensive, it's that you came to this thread to come and gloat after a win. There are other spartans who come here and follow this blog like GoBlogSparty, but they don't just comment on this board after a MSU win. They actually contribute something useful to the board. What have you done?
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:22 PM ^
When you guys openly call for a team that you claim isn't a rival to bite the big one because they are out preforming you, it's kind of obvious the type of response from the fan base you're ragging on. Take your lumps and deal with it.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:38 PM ^
If you're going to troll, you have to at least spell check. And it'd be fair to dish out lumps, if you had been here when MSU was losing. But you obviously can dish them out, but not take them.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:53 PM ^
Due to my erroneous spelling, Michigan State will now be forced to forfeit todays game. 7-1 it is.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:26 PM ^
On their bye week? And why did you come only after MSU won? You came on to be a douche. Congrats, you succeeded.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:09 PM ^
Big win? Could you be more specific? Are you talking about Wisc, UM, NW?
October 23rd, 2010 at 3:59 PM ^
and I'm still given negative points. Wow.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:06 PM ^
Probably because your first post was kind of dousche-y. As they say, you never get a second chance to make a first impression.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:11 PM ^
Has it not happened, multiple times in the past, that UM fans have routinely said that MSU is "not a rival"? Obviously tOSU is your big game every year, I'm sure as hell not going to argue that. I would never expect MSU to be on the level that tOSU is for UM, rivalry-wise. Is that true, or not - that there have been those that have said that MSU is "not a rival"?
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:19 PM ^
Only an idiot would say that MSU isn't a rival, and there are a few of them around here. I think most of us dislike watching MSU win because of people like you that just gloat. Many apologies for the people that may have traipsed over to the RCMB in the past to do the same, but there's really no reason for it.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:24 PM ^
So no need to apologize. (But I appreciate the sentiment) Sure, there are trolls, but there are other guys who are actually good posters and contribute to the discussions. I actually really enjoy seeing opposing viewpoints. I might have been a bit of a jerk with my initial post, but I had a hard time resisting after seeing a lot of the "worst 8-0 team in the history of the game", "luckiest team ever", etc. Stuff like that is fairly silly.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:31 PM ^
Or 5 or 10, before you start to talk smack. Earn your cred that you're a reasonable poster, then you can push the envelope. But coming in right after an MSU win? Troll move.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:31 PM ^
Silly, maybe, but that's going to happen because it's a Michigan board. I spend a little bit of time on the RCMB every once in a while just to see what's going on, and you have to admit that if someone dropped in there from MGoBlog and did this it wouldn't be received very well (especially a few years ago when the situation was the opposite of how it is now).
All it takes is two minutes of poking around the RCMB to see why you're all here, and it sure isn't to discuss anything. Forgive us for responding with negs. They actually work pretty well for weeding out folks whose only reason for being here is to be as annoying as possible.
October 23rd, 2010 at 4:55 PM ^
I'm sure some of the backlash is annoyance with seeing MSU win while UM has struggled the past two weeks, but the fact remains that this board supports opposing fans (we have a couple of prominent ND and OSU fans) who bring legitimate insight and thought to the discussions. I know that there are UM trolls at the RCMB and that is definitely not acceptable, but most of the MSU posters here come with an attitude, take some low-brow pot shots, and then are surprised when they are negged/banned.
