Hail & Unite approved
Yesterday the UM Central Student Government endorsed Hail & Unite's project. No funding, but still..

but it does affect our egos and self-worth.

They should set some parameters (nothing that reminds you of Notre Dame), organize some help for students and open up a competition for videos to be played at the stadium, things like the stuff they do now.
Involve and supervise
February 25th, 2015 at 10:29 AM ^
The parameters: this song will never be played at a Michigan sporting event, ever.

But guys, it's ORGANIC(TM)!
Something this ORGANIC(TM) should be supported because it's ORGANIC(TM).
Did I mention it was ORGANIC(TM)?
If they had introduced this a year ago, it might have stood a chance. DB would have loved himself some ORGANIC(TM) Brand Enhancement.

this idea was also grown in Poop. No chemicals. Straight up manure.
February 25th, 2015 at 10:31 AM ^
No funding.
Move along, nothing more to see here.
February 25th, 2015 at 11:06 AM ^
See, this just helps me make my point. The explosion is too far away for me to give any fucks. Let them bomb on their own...they've done a good enough job all by themselves so far.

Back in my day when you wanted to make a song about the University you just fucking made it. Screw getting CSG approval, do what you love and do it well, and the rest will follow.
February 25th, 2015 at 10:55 AM ^
Back in MY day the guys in the band came up with songs and if people liked them - they stuck. We didnt outsource innovation.
February 25th, 2015 at 12:33 PM ^
they freaking said, 'lets go spartans!' mgrowold you have vandalized my ears.
what's next, a triangle dress and stick figure for your wife's image?
February 25th, 2015 at 11:16 AM ^
Lol BBM ... Man was that popular for about 2 years. The memories...
February 25th, 2015 at 10:33 AM ^
I'd advise you to do what you're parents did, get a job sir! The war is over, the bums lost. The bums will always lose.

Isn't the dude spearheading this already a senior? If so he's only on campus for 2 more months.

So their next step, according to their website, is crowdfunding. I really hope they go with Kickstarter, not one of the other ones where you get funding even if you don't reach your goal, and I really hope they don't reach their goal.
February 25th, 2015 at 10:38 AM ^
February 25th, 2015 at 10:48 AM ^
Don't stoop to that level

They aren't getting U funding so it no longer matters to me.
If people want to pay their own money so someone else can create a party video that is the same as all the other videos of michgan students partying (shmacked, PwP, etc) than let them. It is nothing new.
The biggest thing is there is NO WAY a video of students getting drunk is played in the big house. The second the second prom came out, I was no longer worried.
February 25th, 2015 at 10:35 AM ^
The well has already been poisoned with regard to Hail & Unite. The can try to make it a thing all they want but I guarantee it'll be dead on arrival.
February 25th, 2015 at 10:37 AM ^
I'd like to add an amendment to the proposal: "Whoomp! There it is" is played after TDs and or 3-point shots.

Stupid.
That is all.

A hoodie when trying to get approval/funding? Is that the type of culture that Ross is breeding? Everyone thinks they are Palo Alto based internet start up and can wear Rainbows and cargo shorts while getting a million dollar investment?
Tuck in your damn shirt, pull up your damn pants, and put on a damn tie for once in your life.

People loved (or didn't know who we was) Big Sean at the basketball game last week. What if he was able to do a cool intro video for the basketball team before lineups? They would play The Victors when the team first comes out, then before lineups they play the Big Sean rap. Would be very cool for the players/recruits.
February 25th, 2015 at 11:23 AM ^
Nobody around me had any idea who that guy was, but I guess I'm old. I thought he kind of sucked as a basketball announcer, though. He was very one note, drawing out the last syllable every time, not to mention that you'd think he'd be able to memorize 5 names instead of having to read them.

This is a bunch of college kids who have a strong desire to be connected to something great but don't want to do something meaningful.
February 25th, 2015 at 11:08 AM ^
February 25th, 2015 at 11:17 AM ^
They could build houses for Habitat for Humanity or donate time and money to the United Way but that wouldn't be in their zone or whatever the fuck the kids say now. These Gerber babies aren't in tune with real life

They're doing everything except the creating and the paying.
Also, aside from maybe Kissinger's promotion of the Vietnam War to Nixon, this is as big a selfish, dickish excercise as I've ever seen. Yes, hyperbole, I know.

Generally, discussions about doing "meaningful" things don't go down like this:
"Let's write a great new song for University sporting events!"
"Hey great idea! Actually, you know what? Let's OUTSOURCE that to someone else and form a 17-member executive committee to ask for funding for the outsourcing and for creating a documentary about how we created a great new song for University sporting events!".
When you are trying to do something "meaningful", usually step 1 is to not outsource the "meaningful" part of the project to someone else.

I heard he was tested for it at Langley back in '78.
