DECEMBER 30TH - GREAT DAY OR GREATEST DAY? POSBANG THREAD

Submitted by kehnonymous on

(Mods - Sorry if this posbang thread is gratuitious, but on this day of all days, why the hell not?)

So, yeah - Everything came up Harbaugh today!

First, IT HAPPENED

Then, in a hopeful preview of this Thursday and the last Saturday of this and all future Novembers to come, An Ohio State University lost

And THEN, Aubrey Dawkins Stauskas'd Illinois

FINALLY, MSU's weird guys out-derped the Terps

This day, like Parker Lewis, literally cannot lose.  For those of you who are in Ann Arbor, go to Spike Albrecht's apartment, ask him for Kate Upton's number and text her to see if you can come over, because on this day, she'll probably say yes.

But I must admit what happened today was really special. The whole story of Harbaugh and Michigan is just great. It is not just about football, it is about being proud to be associated with such a great institution. Excellence at everything we do.

The best part about today, and I have seen it on the board, is that I saw the Wolverines and the Wolverine fanbase - arguably #2 on my list after my wife and kids - get some fight back today, and it was great to watch:

I forget the exact date but I think it was the BBQ at the Big House recruiting day in spring 2011 where we had like 6-7 recruits verbally commit within like 8 hours. That was probably more fun than great I guess.

 

Today has been great and for the first time since our Sugar Bowl win in New Orleans, I feel like our team is on the right track. Makes a man feel good, ya know?

Harbaugh has spoken with all commits + Clark and Weber.

Still trying to see if there is info out on the other recruits. I'm sure it's what he's been doing all day since he likely knows who he wants on his staff.

But I'm too busy Harbaughing to concern myself with her gushy entreaties. She'll understand eventually. I wooed her over with the line, "Is there any reason why we shouldn't be lovers?" Kate never responded, I believe because she, like me, was so very busy with Harbaughing. Damn we love us some Harbaugh together. Sorry Spike. A-town is under new management, brah. Br'abaugh that is.

It's a slow day at work and a glorious day for Michigan. In the Bay Area people are stopping me and talking to me for several minutes about Michigan. I love it.

I got a chance to listen to the podcast. There's an epic rant at the end. I transcribe for your pleasure the cathartic rant at the end of the new podcast - if you haven't listened, go to about 43 minutes.

HARBAW!!!!

Hey, HAR-BAW. It happened. It's happening.

So, Michigan got a new AD, the president, from Brown, who thinks this stuff is so weird. They broke the bank for jim fricken Harbaugh. They got the guy, they got the guy in a difficult situation. This was a hard target. A sitting NFL coach who could be the head coach of probably 25 NFL teams right now. Yes. And they went and they got him. Pretty good Michigan. They're putting together an assistant list that looks pretty good. We've got Fricken Jim Harbaugh. Yeah. Yeah we do. They did it. After YEARS. Of floundering. Of comical terrible coaching searches. First you have the Les Miles stuff where the guy's on a boat. And we do luck into Rich Rodriguez, but we very much lucked into Rich Rodriguez after martin KNEW Carr was going to retire because he had to talk him out of retiring a year early. Yup. And then the Hoke search which was just a complete fiasco, because you end up with Brady hoke. Because you end up with Brady Hoke, and that says it all - a completely unqualified guy who looked completely unqualified and you hire him with because he's a Michigan man. 
 
To go from that.
And the seat cushions. <table pound>
And the skywriting. <table pound>
And the concussion crap. <table pound>
And the emails.
 
To an athletic department that it looks like it knows what the FUCK it's doing.
Good stuff man.
Sorry Loch Dogg!
Fuck loch dog! <Ace cackling>
 
Michigan had a chief marketing officer who for like two years his twitter handle was Lochdog!
 
... it goes on... highly recommended.
