Get Well Soon, Carl Grapentine!
Today, Michigan Stadium is without its PA announcer, and the MMB is without its voice, as Carl Grapentine is currently held up near his home in Chicago with serious injuries to both his legs that will require several months of guided rehabilitation. A voice known to Michigan fans for nearly five decades, Carl is a true Michigan Man who deserves our thoughts and good wishes in his recovery during the months to come.
Get well, Carl, and looking forward to hearing your voice again next season!

Carl has had knee issues for a while, and from what he shared on his Facebook, his left knee didn't hold up long enough to have his planned postseason surgery. When the left knee gave out underneath him this week, it caused a significant injury to muscles in his right leg. Basically, just a bad and unlucky turn of events.

That's too bad. I thought it didn't sound like him on tv. Bob Vergiels must be doing it today?
Get well, Carl.

Oh no! :( I can hear the stadium from my house and I thought things sounded a little funny. Anyone know what happened?

I just realized that comment made me sound like an asshole... I promise I'm not.
