Forcier in Boot and on Crutches?
The Daily thinks so:

LSA sophomore Tate Forcier, a quarterback on the Michigan football team, walked to class at about 10 a.m. this morning with crutches and wearing a black boot around his foot and ankle, a Michigan Daily reporter observed.
I hope it's not major.
Mod Edit:
For those who don't read the whole article:
Members of the media were allowed to watch practice yesterday from approximately 4:05 until 4:20. And Forcier was seen participating in drills and appeared fine, nothing out of the ordinary.-FA
i kept fearing something like this would happen
lets hope its nothing too serious
COMMENCE BOARD MELTDOWN
Edit: Seriously, if you can't pick up the sarcasm on this one....
But I won't neg you since you're still new and a pretty solid poster.
That was kind of my point. Maybe I should have gone with dong punch instead.
Either one is blog gold, I'm told.
is the new snake oil.
An overused meme is an overused meme, whether used sarcastically or not.
I am sacrificing my MGoPoints to end the meme. I am an eternal optimist.
I can't get the damn thing off either. I feel like George McFly.
i blame zeigler
But really, its Zeigler's dad's fault
He'll be fine.
(He'll be fine he'll be fine he'll be fine he'll be fine he'll be fine he'll be fine...)
Sometimes I am thankful there are no tall buildings in my rinky dink town.
Why on Earth would the Daily do this? What exactly does it add to anything, other than to spread fear and panic? Sorry, I just don't really feel to happy about them writing this kind of thing. It seems less like news, and more just rumor mongering...
There's threads like this all the time on here. "I saw so-and-so walking out of Schembechler with a sling." "I saw so-and-so hanging out in front of SQuad wearing a boot."
There was a minor meltdown in the pre-MGoEra when the Daily did the same thing about Lester Abram or Daniel Horton standing on the Diag with crutches the day of a huge game.
It happens. This is the electronic age. Do I wish it didn't happen? Yeah. Kids deserve to be able to go to class without it becoming a blog story.
It's not common that the Daily reports on it. I'm not worried about this at all.
Guys are falling like flies. Big Will must have laid the hammer on him. Get better Tate.
Denard Robinson's parakeet's head fell off
We got no food, no jobs... our PETS' HEADS ARE FALLING OFF!
What the hell are we doing here, Harry? We gotta get out of this town!
Where would we go you ask?
I'll tell you where. Someplace warm. A place where the beer flows like wine. Where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano. I'm talking about a little place called Aspen.
Assssssssspen
I don't know Lloyd, the French are assholes.
Harry, I took care of it.
pretty bird...
MGoBlog couldn't possibly get any dumber, FA does something like this... AND TOTALLY REDEEMS IT!
We can get 80 threads to the headline on this blog. There's room for one more, if you still wanna go to Aspen.
Yeeaah. Get her! Ahh...this is the life...cold beer, a hot tub and paper thin walls.
"You sold Petey!?" "Harry, I took care of it."
A month ago, Vlad was walking around in a boot and crutches, and is already back on the practice field.
I guess we might not see him in the spring game, afterall.
I will try to stay positive and say it's a very good thing we have depth this year in case anything happens during the season.
Still, fuck.
Not that I want him to sit out, because everyone can use the reps, but this might be a good situation for Denard and Devin to take advantage of. I'm sure he'll be fine by fall camp (if it indeed even lasts past the weekend). D&D will get some extra reps in front of a big Spring Game crowd, which will only help them settle in their roles.
Also, I have bad ankles and would get banged up all the time. I'd end up in a boot or crutches for 2 days (3 tops) and be back out on the field in time for practice and the game on Friday night. I'm sure its nothing to panic about.
it's new foot wear from Adidas.
Good thing it's April.
have got to be ready. Not saying it's true but Tate will take some hits this season, get banged up and Denard will get his time. If Denard can't hold the ball or has too many INTs, Devin is going in. Devin is getting the whole playbook which is different from Denard last season and he gets reps with the 1st team. So, Devin may not be the QB who starts the game or season, but he may be the one who finishes it.
Why do you think Devin is getting the whole playbook?
from kicking so much ass.
Is the UConn game this Saturday?
Oh, its not?
bfd
I guess we will see on Saturday, but if he was practicing earlier I don't think it will be too bad.
is that we might not see him in the spring game.
Or maybe he'll pull a Willy Wonka. Maybe he'll hobble on to the field with a cane and a limp, pretend to fall forward as 50,000 maize-clad fans gasp, do a rolling somersault, and then spring up, catch a pass thrown in by Denard, and then turn around and throw it 50 yards for a touchdown.
Cheech Marin will drive by and pretend to shoot him, "for his brother Luis"?
would you like to know what your now-animated avatar looks like at its, um, climax?
If only the helmet were a different shape ....
Too soon?
being extra cautious on it because he wants to be sure to be ready for the Spring Game.
" . . . THERE GOES THE NEIGHBORHOOD!"
The UM student paparazzo really is on this spring. Regardless of the competition at QB this year, I fully expect Tate to be starting against Connecticut; however, this is one of the few positions I'm not that worried about. I'd like to see him healthy though. Hopefully it's not too serious.
just after I get done carping on another thread about the "Tate is injured" notion that was common around here, he shows up injured for real. Sorry.
You just had to jinx us with your carping.
I guess this means I should stop carping about those who allege Obama was not born in this country... with my luck, somebody's liable to unearth a live movie of Obama's birth in a Nairobi hospital with his mother wearing a hijab and a Karl Marx t-shirt.
They would unearth that, except he paid off the owner of that video last Saturday when he deliberately escaped the press to "watch his daughter's soccer game."
Puhleeze. A President escaping the press is like my whore of an ex gf escaping a locksmith conference with an unopened chastity belt.
Since when do we worry if our 3rd string QB is banged up:)
