Holiday greetings and thank you e-letter from my good friend, Coach Rodriguez
I don't mean to come off as a braggart here, but I thought you all might be interested in the holiday e-letter that I received from my new friend, Coach Rodriguez, and the entire Michigan football family. He sent me the below message last night to express his appreciation of my support of the program and to personally wish me a happy holiday season.
December 21, 2010
Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
I would like to take the time to thank you for all your cards, letters and emails of support throughout the past year. I appreciate them all very much.
On behalf of the players and staff, Happy Holidays to you and all the best in the coming year.
Have a great holiday!
Go Blue!
Rich Rodriguezand the Michigan Football Family
I guess its safe to assume that I will be getting lots of free tickets next year! So I got that going for me, which is nice.
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:45 AM ^
I'm liking the positivity! I wonder if there is a Beavis in Maize and Blue? That would be sweet ass sweet!
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:37 AM ^
Well my card was from Dave Brandon, and he told me who the coach is going to be AND the two silent commits. And there was this charming picture of his entire office as elves too, all in all it was incredibly precious.
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:42 AM ^
Prove it
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:43 AM ^
I would, but I already framed it and placed it on top of my Brandon shrine
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:52 AM ^
My mistake
Your mgopoint total shows me how reputable you are I am sorry to have doubted you.
December 22nd, 2010 at 12:42 PM ^
smudges of baby powder on the letter from his pimp hand? That would be awesome.
December 22nd, 2010 at 2:18 PM ^
Did you pay for it with MGoPoints?
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:45 AM ^
Was Buddy the elf in his office?
December 22nd, 2010 at 11:20 AM ^
I am of course extremely jealous. First of all I love elves but more importantly DB feeds you inside information about the program....I LOVE YOU!...........but not in a gay way......or is it?
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:43 AM ^
i guess its better than the valentines card he put in the box infront of my desk
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:51 AM ^
Just what I wanted this morning - a snookie cookie cartoon based on Valentine's Day. Let's keep the holidays the holidays fellas.
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:46 AM ^
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:49 AM ^
I hope that's a Michigan stocking.
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:51 AM ^
but if someone filled my stocking with a perishable food item 3 days before christmas I would not be happy
plus aren't most stockings knitted? that has to be one chunky dip
i give you a plus 1 for cleaning up the mantle
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:01 AM ^
but that ain't no taco dip. You must have been a bad boy this year. Enjoy your stocking.
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:51 AM ^
What kind of coach sends out pathetic christmas cards like this? It's like he's begging for his job. Pathetic. Hoke would never send out Christmas Cards like this cuz he's a Michigan Man. Go listen to Josh Groban snowflake! /s
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:58 AM ^
I am sensing some legitimate sarcasm here but considering that, you haven't been a member to the board very long I am just going to leave this one alone....
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:04 AM ^
the /s made it clear. No?
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:07 AM ^
I seen it. You're good.
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:15 AM ^
My mistake I overlooked that minor detail...May the MGoPointGod have mercy on my soul...
December 22nd, 2010 at 11:25 AM ^
Ahh Holy Kitty. I do enjoy this picture.
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:06 AM ^
What kind of card would Hoke send out? How about JH? How about DB? How about Les Miles? The possibilities for whimsy are endless.......
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:14 AM ^
will most likely arrive in February
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:32 AM ^
and a trick play diagrammed on the back?
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:43 AM ^
smells faintly of freshly mowed grass.
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:51 AM ^
Would send a Damn Strong Holiday Greeting Card. Then when you got it he would call you and ask for it back because he needed it for someone else.
December 22nd, 2010 at 4:29 PM ^
there was a Miles joke in there somewhere. Glad you nailed it.
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:38 AM ^
I got a really inappropriate card from JH but I think it was meant for someone else. It smelled like alcohol. It was weird...
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:44 AM ^
Season Greetings and Christmas Cheer
Are things we love this time of year
I have to tell ya, let me say
Your scholarship has gone away.
Les Miles

December 22nd, 2010 at 10:51 AM ^
But to soften the blow to your lost scholarship here is 10% off my grass tasting extravaganza, where we sample only the best from all the BCS Bowls and SEC fields! TASTE THE GREATNESS!!
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:20 AM ^
Seriously?!?! Im sure you would be expecting a dancing elf or some sh*t from Hoke and maybe an in home visit from JH?!? GET BENT!! GO BLUE and PRAISE RR!!
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:25 AM ^
+1 /s
December 22nd, 2010 at 11:33 AM ^
I love that curse phrase.
December 22nd, 2010 at 9:53 AM ^
Sue Coleman and the U's academic administration must be falling down on the job if they failed to send profitgoblue a card! Gotta keep soaking and sucking up to those rich lawyer alumni! :0)
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:16 AM ^
The better people got snailmailed card. I should know because I helped RR address them after our weekly game of scrabble.
I put a fancy gold foil sticker on David Brandon's card!
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:30 AM ^
Sure you were not supposed to put a $500 gift card in the one from RR to DB?????
If anything happens to RR after the bowl game, we will now know whom to blame!
:0)
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:37 AM ^
Aint nothing!
December 22nd, 2010 at 3:15 PM ^
Wow, that's someth'in! From his Senate days. Impressive.
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:32 AM ^
I got the same kind of shit from the attorney who handled my DUI.
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:50 AM ^
You might be our coach next year, try to make nice with the fans...
December 22nd, 2010 at 10:52 AM ^
Next thing you'll be telling me is that you donated through beveled guilt.
December 22nd, 2010 at 12:39 PM ^
Touche.
December 22nd, 2010 at 11:16 AM ^
you do need to write and tell him that the lack of a space in Rodriguezand is not going to cut it here at Michigan. That stuff may fly at WVU, but we have STANDARDS, and that is simply UNACCEPTABLE! Things like that might cause people to show their ANGAR, for crying out loud. Oh, and ask him what the deal is with all those skinny linemen they keep talking about on the radio.
/yes it is a poor attempt at humor, but I had a tough drive in this AM
December 22nd, 2010 at 12:10 PM ^
Funny, there was no return address...
December 22nd, 2010 at 12:37 PM ^
... a response from jimboblue. Here's hoping.
December 22nd, 2010 at 1:16 PM ^
Rich Rodriguezand?
December 23rd, 2010 at 9:35 AM ^
The lack of tolerance for anyone who wants to discuss CC on here, the name profit, and now the suck-up email from RR. Profit IS Dave Brandon.
