False Rumor: Official Michigan Football Themesong

Submitted by Purkinje on

I received this link via the "AllIn For Michigan" Facebook group this morning. The message reads as follows:

Attention Michigan fans:

Get ready for the season opener against the Connecticut Huskies with the official 2010 University of Michigan Football theme song! The song will debut as part of a 5 minute segment this Saturday, September 4th on ESPN College Gameday live from Atlanta, GA. "Welcome to the Big House" will be played throughout the season in Michigan Stadium, on the radio, on campus, and anywhere there are Michigan fans!

Get an exclusive look at the Official 2010 Michigan Football theme song before its debut this Saturday. Here it is!

[used to be link]

GO BLUE!

 

It could be worse, I guess. But why do we need a corny "official football theme song" to play when we have the MMB anyway?

 

EDIT:

This video has been up since October of last year. Thus, I'm assuming that this is just an attention-grabbing lie of a message. Call back the dogs. I apologize for helping this along. (As such, I've taken the link to the video out.)

please link to the facebook group. the video has zero production quality and i have a feeling this is a push to get people to download it from itunes/publicity.

Please.  No.  They tried this around the late 90's, there was a Big House song they were selling on CD's around campus, and it was lame beyond all expression.  

Please, please, please don't do this...

If Michigan is going to have a theme song, it should be the song that Gob's plays during his magic shows.  Anyone hear it playing in their head?  Perfect, right?

Yes, it's bad, but I listened, and downloaded it anyway. And added it to my Gameday playlist.

I laughed out loud at this gem:

"We run Sportscenter's Top 10/Like Obama runs GM."

but I'm about emailed out....after all the OSU Game emails, and the water bottle, and....I mean, man...it's going to sound like I just want to complain if I send this one in too.  

Maybe that's their plot..throw out so many outrageously stupid things, they can get away with some minor dumb ideas.
