Big Football Weekend for the State of Michigan

Submitted by jokenjin on

This is one of the weekends it's great to be a football fan. An absolutely HUGE Michigan/Notre Dame game followed by a VERY winnable game for the Lions against Chicago. I can't wait. Is there really a purpose for this post? Probably not - other than letting everyone know my sheer joy of football and the amount of quality games this weekend in both college and the pros. I just needed an avenue to express myself.

Since I work in Indiana, I have my Michigan flag hanging outside my cubicle to counter all those band wagon ND fans at work. We've been trash talking all week and I love it. Couple it with the fact that they are mostly Bears fans and it's been great (I work in NW Indiana in a town called East Chicago, so they are all Bears fans instead of Colts fans).

God, I love football.

Good luck to everyone's fantasy football teams this week!

GO BLUE!

I'm happy for football to be back, but let's be realistic.  The Lions are still the Lions.  They don't have any big games.  Michigan State plays a D-14 team to an audience of 244 people at Ford Field.  Wait...Not including the band?

There is one big game this weekend.  I can't wait.

I have the Lions as my sleeper in the NFC.  I think they're going to be much better then they have been in years past and Matthew Stafford is the real deal. You can always bank on Cutler throwing a pick or 5 so I like our chances!
