Documentary tonight at 11. Michigan v sparty "Divided we stand"

Submitted by stjoemfan on November 14th, 2019 at 12:07 PM

Tonight at 11:00 on FS1 there is a documentary on the rivalry. It's called Divided We Stand.

I've decided I'm going to record it. If it sucks I'll erase it.

Without seeing it and knowing whether you are correct or not, I would bet both my pinky fingers and one of my testicles that the folks on RCMB will come to exactly the opposite conclusion. In fact, I will bet they conclude that the "Blue Wall" Detroit media and BSPN (their modified acronym for ESPN) came together to produce the most biased documentary since Hitler's favorite "Triumph of the Will."

1st & 10 at MSU 18

(7:11 - 3rd) Wolverines fumble by Braylon Edwards (MICH), recovered by Eric Smith (MSU), returned for no gain.

 

Sure, Braylon made some greats plays at the end of that game.  Does anyone remember the above with the score MSU 17 - UM 10.  Pretty sure Braylon had at least one drop earlier in that game too.  He was part of the reason M was in a hole to begin with.

I used to tell my wife that Braylon will drop a perfectly thrown ball 9 out of 10 times, but he'll make an acrobatic at the same ratio. 

Watch the BTN Michigan vs.Ohio State 2004 game he says several times that he was rounding off routes in that game.

I'm glad he played for us, but I think his legacy will not be as great as it could have been.

Probably will be .  But at the same time, I am still eager to watch as it seems like something that'll get me fired up, and from the previews it looks like it's got a lot of Michigan greats talking in it.  That'd be awesome if the Michigan usher can talk about Dantonio telling him to "get the hell away from me" heading into the 2010 game when he got off the bus.

The best part about this is that some Spartan douche is going to count the minutes spent on each school and feel victimized by the fact that MSU got more, less, or the same time as UM.

Sounds like it is heavily slanted towards Staee and makes it look like their program only started in 2007. No thanks.

It's not worth watching after the first few minutes.  They're going to do a brief recap of pre-2007 and then spend the rest of the time talking about 2008 until now because that's when college football began.  Outside of 2004, our wins weren't that memorable, but the losses were complete B.S. that I'd prefer not to relive.
