Tip?
Just asked for you.
Hah! Goteeem
"Ready to beat some Buckeye ass?"
thats a yes!
Actually I downvoted you too. For those coming later, Ty's original post was "Butthurt much OP?" Not sure what it was referring to but was obvious flamebait.
for calling him out about posting info from a Michigan playbook allegedly in his possession. Several months ago.
His account at the time was Ankle Pick, or something similar.
Internet message board grudges are serious business.
I just found this awesome book of sheet music, secretly written by this one composer, maybe you can help me figure it out.....
WAIT A SECOND...
So Anklepick is now Ty train? if so, not surprised based on the comments I have read of ty train.
And frankly I'm surprised that his new account has made it this long! He must be holding back.
I'm suprised at how few posters on here have ever been part of the game, any game, in some capacity. Just keep posting those shitty mlive links Nick, you're killin it!!! Great job mad hatter, poster of the year!
You're obviously pretty young and not all that smart. So I'm going to stop responding to your posts or referring to you in any way. I feel like I'm kicking a cripple.
You really should check out 11 warriors or RCMB. I think you'd fit in much better on either of those sites.
LALALALALAAAAAAAAAA
I'm young at heart mad hatter, YOUNG AT HEART!!! I just like fucking with you man, come on, just like you did to me. You will be the first person I come track down if there is ever an mgoblog meet the members. I'll just look for the guy who looks like he didnt play sports and can sing...
Have a good day Baumgardner!
+1 to you.
but, like, what comments?
...What they really meant was.
1. SEC
2. SEC Network
3. Tim Tebow
4. Nick Saban
5. Lane Kiffin
6. Gator Bait
7. Tiger Bait
8. The Grove vs. StarkVegas
9. Dak 4 Heisman
10. Three SEC in the CFB Playoff (minimum)
5 SEC IN PLAYOFF !!!11!!1!!!!1
This article was only up for 30 minutes on ESPN, and the Sparty slaps were all "ESPN just cares about Harbaugh and the SEC". I don't think they get that 'Murica will only care about them before late November once they start competing for championships for more than two years in a row.
This whole post is correct.
I'm really hoping that the trend of the SEC sucking in the post season continues so that everyone sees what a farce their BCS bowl lineup was
Decent list, but all this shows me is that ESPN is in the off-season drought about as bad as we are.
Agreed. The list basically reads as HARBAUGH and we want to see player X play football and coach Y coach.
Or, which Michigan QB will win the September Heisman. It's nice to still be relevant and not over something bad or embarrassing.
Does everyone else hate the layout of the site? SI is doing this too. So much space taken up by shit I don't care to see. The scores and ESPN tab at the top take up almost a quarter of the page. If I wanna see baseball scores, I can go look. I don't need it there constantly. Hate having the page so crowded with this unnecessarily small window of the stuff I actually I want to look at. Same goes for the damn headlines on the left taking up a quarter of the page.
#4 doesn't even fully fit in the window. Not that it's interesting but still.
Yes, I hate it as well. But it is helping me ween myself off my ESPN addiction. I try really hard hard not click ESPN links (like this one) and I don't watch ESPN anymore unless I have to (Detroit/UM sports).
They're catering to the tablet/mobile market. Ugh...
The mobile/tablet has been overtaking and surpassing the desktop market for years. Give it a few more years and the majority of web traffic will be on mobile and tablets, with desktop making up a small fraction. You've seen several do it already, but soon the majority of sites will be mobile first layouts.
My biggest pet peeve is that you can no longer scroll over a game and click "box score." The only option now is GameCast. GameCast is OK when it's working, but sometimes I just want to see a damn box score.
I'm neutral to the new design overall, but forcing you to Gamecast is a real kick in the balls. A simple rollover that pops up Gamecast, Play-by-Play, and Box Score is all that's needed. Or make it a click action for your mobile/tablet users.
As a web developer, I know there are options besides forcing people to Gamecast and the immediate advertisement, which obviously prevents you from viewing the box score or P-by-P for at least 30 seconds.
EDIT: Well I check ESPN this afternoon and now when you rollover the scores in the header, the Box Score and Gamecast options are there. Now you're not forced into Gamecast #MyBitchingMakesADifference
This only focuses on the opening weekend.
And it's a bit more Harbaugh heavy at the top.

to the OP.
I wasn't aware that Wisconsin and Alabama play the first week. That could be interesting.
Okay maybe I was aware, but not fully aware.
I actually didn't realize Notre Dame and BC were playing each other at Fenway, that's pretty cool. If I hadn't already paid for the trip to Penn State that weekend, I might have gone to that one.

"Oh, and don't take any wooden nickels."
Found that Jack Harbaugh quote on this page: http://www.thepostgame.com/features/201111/patriarch-passion-how-jack-harbaugh-raised-two-nations-best-football-coaches
Excellent list.
That would have been more impressive in the age of typewritters.
Typewriter, what is a typewriter???
Both of these lists sure feature a lot of Michigan related stuff. Which is weird since we aren't nationally relevant anymore.
"What an odd thing to say."
Hey, that's pretty cool. I didn't know about that one.
Can #101 Please be: How long until fans revolt at ESPN's insistance on raping them with ads?
Seriously, you cant even pause them now and they take up half the screen. GET OFF MY LAWN.
The internet in general is unbearable without an adblocker.
I've been trying to find this and just never looked in the right place.
