like I said on twitter: that was almost as intense as Iowa NIT games
Dear Diary, The Worst is Over
Filed under:
A whole lot of "defense will be better" diaries this week. Rather than steal their thunder, HIT PLAY to listen to my favorite song off my favorite album of all time, and once the strings and charts come in, start clicking things. (Mp3 courtesy of band's official page)
Dear Diary,
Your gentleman caller
Well, he's been calling on another
He loves his forbidden fruit
And as it dribbles down his chin
He cries:
"Baby I've been drinking with some friends now how about a little kiss"
Bad boy
Rub his nose in it, what a mess
And he's playing dumb
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
I'm not looking for a lover
All those lovers are liars
I would never lie to you
You say you wanna get even
Yeah you wanna get your bad man good
Well, are you in the mood?
You bad girl
Does it feel good
Being bad? and get worse
do do do do do do do do
But in the morning
On the sober dawn of Sunday
You're not sure what you have done
Who told you love was fleeting?
Sometimes men can be so misleading
To take what they need from you
Whatever you need to make you feel
Like you've been the one behind the wheel
The sunrise is just over that hill
Whatever I said to make you think
That love's the religion of the weak
This morning we love like weaklings
The worst is over.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

I prefer "the recluse"
Both as a song and as a metaphor for my relationship with UM football recently:
Awake, alone, in a woman's room I hardly know (RR)
I'm not that desperate, oh no, oh god, I am (the week after toledo)
Why do I start what I can't finish? (every game vs top 25)
You're in my web now. (watching the gator bowl)

Also, 1000 cocktails to you, sir, for that photoshop. Well earned.

tim kasher was at the blind pig not terribly long ago, i believe. wish i could have made it even though i haven't listened to his solo album yet. 2003/04 were all about cursive and the good life.

Dude, photos of GERG should
Dude, photos of GERG should
Dude, photos of GERG should never be posted on MGBlog again. It's like a beautiful former girlfriend who cruelly dumped you -- she can be mentioned (preferably obliquely) but photos should never be shown. Similarly, we have been able to put GERG behind us, finally, with difficulty. So no pictures. Please.

Eh...
Eh...
More like a girlfriend you only dated because you were desperate and eventually dumped because you realized she was making your friends laugh at you. And now the memory lives in the "what the Hell was I thinking?" area of your brain. Yet you don't talk all that much smack about her because she never did anything wrong; she just wasn't good enough for you.

I look at those picture pages
I look at those picture pages
I look at those picture pages and I look at Greg Robinson and my inner rage starts to bubble with disgust. Son of a bitch we were an embarrassment on defense. If I never see anything like that again in my lifetime, I will die happy.

I can't help but think of the Willard/Kurtz exchange anytime I see GERG...
“ They told me that you had gone totally insane and that your methods were unsound.”
“ Are my methods unsound?”
“ I don’t see any method at all, sir.”

The line graph with Texas,
The line graph with Texas,
The line graph with Texas, Syracuse, Michigan and GERG summarizes the situation perfectly as it is elegant and devastating.
Team 132: 11-2. Tremendous

Sigh!
Sigh!
Let's get this petulant nostalgia behind us. I would be interested in ten years to hear from Coaches Mattison and Hoke about the scene that they found. However, confidence and other intangibles make a big difference, and GERG seems to be on the short end of the stick there.
Let us look forward to better times and brighter fortunes.
No comment on the music, Mr. Misopogen, but far be it for me to rain on your parade. Cheers and good luck!
