I tried embedding, sorry for the fail
August 15th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
Embed's have to go in the comments.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:53 PM ^
August 15th, 2013 at 1:21 PM ^
More like a catastrophe, amirite?
August 15th, 2013 at 2:02 PM ^
Embeds DO NOT have to go in the comments!
To embed in the original post, you must copy the "Old Embed Code" when you copy from YouTube. There's a clickable option on YouTube to do so.

How do you put a pic in a post?
Seriously have no idea how to do that.
August 15th, 2013 at 2:54 PM ^
You could try use the HTML image tag in your post, like so:
img src="whatever url" placed between a "<" and a "/>" (no quotes). The Rich Text Formatter's image embedding mechanism is...unique.
Attempting to do that here:
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/LygQxt9.jpg"/>
Edit: Looks like a no. I'm not sure how to just do it in text.

To add an image in a comment find the picture you want online, right click on it and select "copy image url". Go to write a comment like you normally would but click on the "Image" icon on the top toolbar. Paste the image url into the "URL" box. Now you're a picture postin son of a gun.
August 15th, 2013 at 4:01 PM ^
They're not talking about pics in comments, it's an OP they're talking about.
August 15th, 2013 at 8:13 PM ^
The easiest way.... just open the pic in a different tab, then click on it and hold it and drag the pic to the mgoblog tab, when the mgoblog tab opens drag the image where the text should be and release, et voilá.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:18 PM ^
Does he say "No it's not backwards...." and is referring to the gauntlet...and then is wrong?
"DON'T QUESTION THE COACH!"
August 15th, 2013 at 12:24 PM ^
Ouch. That looked painful for the player.. Hopefully he didn't mess up his shoulder or something.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:24 PM ^
In beautiful loop form:
August 15th, 2013 at 12:25 PM ^
The apparatus itself?
The running back?
The person who set up the gauntlet?
The cameraman?
August 15th, 2013 at 12:42 PM ^
does he finish his "shit" statment with the cameras off?
"... 1-step sidecut here, right? no shh-... nothin' else"
August 15th, 2013 at 4:53 PM ^
I've worked in the industry, and Kelly is obviously mic'd up for this... The sound quality of his voice is impeccable (i.e. not an on-camera microphone).
That may have helped "calm" his temper!
August 15th, 2013 at 12:31 PM ^
"No, it's not swaying."
August 15th, 2013 at 12:39 PM ^
:( :( :(
August 15th, 2013 at 12:55 PM ^
August 15th, 2013 at 2:06 PM ^
He sure kept him up there though.
August 15th, 2013 at 3:01 PM ^
August 15th, 2013 at 1:27 PM ^
Damn, beat me to it.
Bravo.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:42 PM ^
A gantlet is comprised of parallel lines of obstructions through which an athlete or a military trainee (or even, in ancient times, a captive undergoing punishment) runs.
Because of the "track" imagery, the term gantlet also denotes a certain configuration for railroad tracks.
A gauntlet is an armored glove.
Now, I realize that this has come up in numerous newspaper and style-manual disputes. And common usage has moved more toward universal employment of "gauntlet."
But we aren't common at Michigan, are we?
August 15th, 2013 at 12:43 PM ^
This is, by FAR, my all time favorite post of yours.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:48 PM ^
The technical name for that first image is, "Dong Forest."
August 15th, 2013 at 1:54 PM ^
if they were not allowed to use Dong Forests at Catholic universities. Clearly a Dong Forest is preferable because the runner can go both ways.
August 15th, 2013 at 3:03 PM ^
They can only use the term "Dong Forest" at Catholic schools when referring to going on a retreat with the priests. Formerly, called Tail Hook.
August 15th, 2013 at 4:07 PM ^
"Hook and Tattle" in 1933. When the coaching staff needed a name for their crazy, end-of-game desperation, they named it the "Hook and Tattle" since if it worked, they'd feel like they were getting away with something. In 1964, they changed it to "Hook and Lateral" for fear of the "pot-smoking liberal hippies" from Stanford catching on to their doings.
August 15th, 2013 at 4:52 PM ^
how about some anti-semitic jokes next
August 15th, 2013 at 5:09 PM ^
Are you equating anti-semitism to catholic priest jokes?
August 16th, 2013 at 12:20 PM ^
hatred of religion is hatred of religion.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:53 PM ^
insufferable pedants?
August 15th, 2013 at 1:36 PM ^
Worst part about the current comment system is being unable to moderate Section 1's posts as "-1: Trolling."
August 15th, 2013 at 1:50 PM ^
You know nothing Jon Snow.
August 15th, 2013 at 3:31 PM ^
I hear he did a number on cholera and the Broad Street Pump, but lost the "h" in his first name along the way.
August 15th, 2013 at 8:17 PM ^
Jon Snow knows 2 things!
How to go down on a girl
and nothing.
August 15th, 2013 at 4:05 PM ^
well, if it's on wikipedia...
August 15th, 2013 at 1:43 PM ^
both spellings are correct.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:40 PM ^
for Michigan's LB"s. No biggie.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:42 PM ^
Winner.
August 15th, 2013 at 12:50 PM ^
I like how the equipment held its block and didn't offer an opening to the RB. I am thinking that there might even be a battle between this and Carlo Clabrese at ILB right now actually.
August 15th, 2013 at 1:18 PM ^
August 15th, 2013 at 1:23 PM ^
At least he didn't kill a kid... again...
August 15th, 2013 at 2:09 PM ^
He said its backwards, He KNOWs it is backwards and runs full blast into it. I am sure purple face loves that someone just ran into a wall for him. I would be called uncoachable because I would not run into a wall for him or anyone else. I guess that is partly why I am typing and not playing football that and the lack of size, speed, strength and an over abundance of tummy roles.
August 15th, 2013 at 2:43 PM ^
tummy played?
Clearly, they were in a hurry and didn't read the instructions. Not a big deal in this case, I don't think wind was a factor.
