I'm suffering from laces withdrawals

As a recovered UofM binge drinking alcoholic I spend most of my football saturday's enjoying coca cola and watching denard robinson run up and down helpless defenses. After a little over a month now without college football, I've noticed myself having small memory issues and trouble concentrating at work. I've had a couple friends come up and ask if everything is o.k. and I force myself to mutter a "yes" but deep down I know I'm lying to myself. I feel empty inside...I've started to lie about my drob "youtubeing," often hiding it from other people. I've come to the realization that I may need help, especially since football season is months away. I've taken the first step and admitted that I am powerless over denard robinson and only a power greater than myself will restore me to sanity. If you want to join me in creating a DR anonymous group please let me know so that we can start weekly meetings to discuss our issues. Thank you for letting me share.

My name is Tom and I'm a denardaholic.

A subject with "Denard" and "withdrawl" in the same sentence = instant panic attack

O-H-I-O: Because the "YMCA" wasn't gay enough.

The way to get over an addiction is to withdraw from it. But the Denard for me is like insulin for a diabetic - I can't get enough.

The only cure when supplies are low is to use substitutes, aka "youtube". Hopefully this helps:

1)shit I miss college football

2) it's a shame that when a lot of fans look back at this past season in Michigan football history, the main thing they will think of is it was Rodriguez's last year...I won't go any further into that, but I get the feeling that people are going to slowly forget how historic a year it was for Denard...he did something that has never been done in NCAA football history, and he is truly one of the most special players in Michigan history with the way he can change a game...I do feel kind of bad that we're not going to see these types of amazing displays every weekend next year...

I almost ran to the liquor store down the street when I saw the title.....there would have been a  "suddenly,  it was Friday....." session with the beer......

I didn't see the first title, but this whole Denard withdrawal (not from the school)  thing was pretty funny. You need to find other things in your life pal. There's plenty of Maize and Blue to go around.

to the OP you need to grit your teeth and push through. This time of the year is actually better than 3 months from now. At least right  now we still have spring practice and the spring game coming up. After that, there is no more hockey, no more basketball, the only thing going on is baseball and softball and that is just not enough to get me through. Maybe we can call the support group "Waiting for September"

Oh how I hate Ohio State
