I just saw this tweet from Frank Clark. I thought you'd all like to see his new ink. Michigan players know how to do ink right (unlike Sparties), and legal (unlike TSUO).

In case anyone else was wondering
A "tarblooder" is a railroad term, referring to the workers who laid down the heavy ties and cemented them with tar. They were considered hard-working and dedicated men who went far beyond the pale in doing their jobs.

Just FYI - That was
Just FYI - That was originally a Minstrel song (A.K.A. black-face) where a white person dresses up in black make-up and sing songs from a lazy, uneducated, and incompetent perspective. Hence the lack of dedication.
It's sad how many children's folk songs actually started out this way.
The end.
If I am to understand you
If I am to understand you correctly, what you're basically saying is that our own Profit is essentially a big ol' racist? Like, the board's very own Al Jolson? Is that right? That's what you're saying? Yeah, that sounds about right. Lousy racist.
Yep, I think you're right. A
Yep, I think you're right. A quick search of the internets revealed this:
Looks like the one on the right in the image is the one he used in his tat. And I'm assuming "from the G to the M" is referring to his journey from Glenville to Michigan.
Somewhat inspiring
If I were a football player, I'd totally get a Voltron tattoo.

I'm guessing not a lot of people make it from Glenville to Ann Arbor. A reminder of his accomplishment, the hard work it took to achieve it, and the lessons he picked up along the way are probably things he won't mind being reminded of 40 years from now.
Now, if it were something random without that meaning behind it I'd agree with you.

Lucky for Frank, Glenville's mascot isn't a Spartan
15 years from now, there will be a booming business in tattoo removal.
ironing board vs tatoo
fascinating choice- purchase a tatoo when the household is trying to manage without an ironing board. i'm not sure where the current generation of sack freaks priorties lie.

You can see the leg of the ironing board behind him.

I had no awareness of a thing called a tarblooder or that it was the Glenville mascot... However, that is a pretty awesome mascot. Probably one of the coolest and most original mascot names I've ever heard (besides Wolverines, of course).
