I will be drinking Oberon and eating leftover Thanksgiving dinner while being thankful I wasn't born in Ohio.
November 27th, 2010 at 8:24 AM ^
If there's anything most of us can be thankful for, it's not being from Ohio. For those who are, I sympathize with you.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:19 AM ^
Thanks for the sympathy - all I know is that, just like in the Godfather, every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in...

Ouch - sorry for the double post...is the Don watching somehow?
November 27th, 2010 at 10:02 AM ^
in the mid 80's and early 90's.
Let me tell you, it was a HOOT living there when we were kicking their asses regularly. A win today will make it fun for anyone living there now.
November 27th, 2010 at 10:20 AM ^
and there nothing better than wearing the maize and blue the day after Michigan beats OSU. The death stares you get are great plus the occasional "Fuck Michigan!" from the disgruntled OSU fan.

"...stuck at my buckeye wifes..."
You poor bastard. I was married to a Sparty for six years before booting her cheatin', drug-addicted ass. Sometimes you gotta take out the trash. GO BLUE!

I will be at UofM Hospital. My uncle had his esophogus removed last week and doesn't get released until next week so we will be watching the game in his room. I am actually looking foward to it as no matter how the football team does (although I am expecting a win) I will still have a reminder of what UofM is REALLY known for. His Dr. pioneered the procedure and is still the world's best at it. Leaders and Best.
November 27th, 2010 at 8:30 AM ^
going to the MHSAA State Finals to see Brennen Beyer play!!
November 27th, 2010 at 11:57 AM ^
Current team > future team member. You have to watch "The Game".
November 27th, 2010 at 8:34 AM ^
With my dad at my house because his 55' doesnt compare to my 65". Who has also been gracious enough to keep the 4 season tickets since '83 despite moving to NY in '89. Go dad and Go Blue from Rochester, NY!
November 27th, 2010 at 8:50 AM ^
Seconding the Go Blue from Rochester, NY!
Just got engaged yesterday so I'll be watching on the new fiance's 60 inch tv and having beers with my future in-laws.
November 27th, 2010 at 10:14 AM ^
Sounds like you perfectly timed the engagement. Congrats!
November 27th, 2010 at 12:00 PM ^
Thanks, the problem I now have is that she wants a fall wedding in 2012.I'm actively campaigning for Sept 29th (bye week).
November 27th, 2010 at 8:41 AM ^
I'm hosting a U of M football party here in Cleveland. I just bought a 63" Samsung HD Plasma with a 500 watt Denon head deck and killer Definitive Technologies sound bar (they're awesome). I stocked the fridge with Dogfish 60 & 90, Dos Equis Dark and Great Lakes Christmas Ale. The wife got up at 5:30 and started slow cooking beef for Philly Cheesesteak sandwhiches on fresh bread she's making right now. And I invited 6 of the most OBNOXIOUS OSU fans I know to come over and watch the game with me.
I think we're gonna win.
November 27th, 2010 at 8:42 AM ^
Case n a half, just fer laughs.
November 27th, 2010 at 8:51 AM ^
If we're betting I'd like the 17 points please. I may wear rose colored glasses but I 'm not stupid either.
Which flavor of beer do you wanna wager on?
November 27th, 2010 at 9:01 AM ^
Going to Tavern in the Square for the game. It's the alumni bar in the Greater Boston area. I don't know what sort of turn out it will have and what time I should get there.
Or I might stay at home.
November 27th, 2010 at 10:42 AM ^
Please report back on how it is. I've been to The Place in Boston for a game this year and it was crazy packed and fun.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:03 AM ^
November 27th, 2010 at 9:09 AM ^
Navy sailor here loving every minute of shore duty, so home is where my favorite place to watch the game is....much better watching it on my 53" Vizio on HD than hoping AFN is carrying it, hoping the TVDTS system is up and working, and the ship is on the right bearing so as not to be in a block zone, grrrr. Oh, and hoping some douche isn't watching something else in the tv lounge, when I want to see THE game....
Kind of boozed out after the past few days, may be just som Blue Moon, and leftover turkey sandwiches, turkey soup, and whatever else I can think of making with turkey.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:09 AM ^
November 27th, 2010 at 9:15 AM ^
Currently in Shanghai, China. Will be watching the game at a bar on replay with a couple other Michigan alums and mgoblog fans.
Shout out from China!

November 27th, 2010 at 11:19 AM ^
+1 to both of you for dedication. I did the same sort of thing last year on a trip to Europe.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:23 AM ^
I will watch the defense early and see if they bring it, but otherwise, the DVR is on standby.
November 27th, 2010 at 11:57 AM ^
Stickin' with it eh.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:29 AM ^
Sitting in front of my 55 inch plasma alone. Just cannot watch big M football games in the presence of others, under the risk of them wanting to speak to me about anything, including the game. 100% concentration on the game.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:43 AM ^
I like to watch big games alone too. I need complete focus.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:56 AM ^
Doing the same here in Austin.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:39 AM ^
I'll be with the UM Alumni Club of Miami-Ft Lauderdale at the Upper Deck Ale & Sports Bar at Hallandale Beach.
GO BLUE / CRUSH OSU
November 27th, 2010 at 9:45 AM ^
I will be watching from work where I will see repetitive suckeye fans come through hopefully with sad faces. If not this could be a long day, price I pay for living in ohio. But at least I can watch the game on like 8 different tv's.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:54 AM ^
Hoping there are no buckeyes at the local sports bar.
November 27th, 2010 at 9:56 AM ^
in front of the computer.
November 27th, 2010 at 10:00 AM ^
November 27th, 2010 at 10:01 AM ^
Driving from Raleigh, NC back to Toledo, and eventually A2. I hope that being unable to watch will reduce the chances of head-asplosions.
November 27th, 2010 at 10:03 AM ^
He parents thought it would be a good idea to bring her grandma over for her 80th birthday on gameday. They should arrive around mid 1st quarter where I will be just settling in on a good buzz courtesy of Guinness. They will come in and ooh and ahhh about our new house while I will be screaming like an animal at the TV. Her parents will understand as they know better than to bother me on gamedays (yet they still do all the time), but grandma might be terrified. Then, probably around half, they will leave to go to lunch and ask the inevitable stupid question, "are you coming to lunch with us?", then I will just look back with the that was a stupid question look and they will leave and probably think I am the worst person ever for not going on her 80th birthday. Then, they will return right about the time the game ends where I will drunk and happy after the first Michigan victory over OSU in 7 years and we will all have cake and sing happy birthday.
Going to be a great day!!!!!
November 27th, 2010 at 10:17 AM ^
They're due 11/30, and I am waaaaaaaay behind....
November 27th, 2010 at 10:33 AM ^
.........without the wife, which is the first time in two weeks this will happen. What it means is that I can spend all my energy and concentration on the game without having to be interrupted.
November 27th, 2010 at 11:10 AM ^
9am start west coast time... coffee moving to beer and maybe hard liquor by the second half.
November 27th, 2010 at 11:18 AM ^
Across the pond in England here. Just finished a game for my University team which we won 50 odd - 0. Had a solid game. Now off to the pub where the game is shown on ESPN America. All my teammates will be supporting OSU just to piss me off so it will be unbelievable if we can pull this off. Either way I will be getting drunk tonight. Go Blue!
November 27th, 2010 at 2:13 PM ^
Crying.
