I know this all seems kind of ridiculous, but ....I can recall some days when my kid was restless tailgating, and I was like "Where's all that stuff I can drag my kids to?"  

So for that subset of folks, like especially first-time visitors with kids in tow?  It would actually be helpful to know "Here's where all the goofy stuff is."

what is the attitude IF Kraft donates a shit ton of money to the program or provides free shirts, hats, towels, mac and cheese to fans? Seems like folks like to bitch like they need to breathe...control the things you can...ignore the things you can't. Life is too short to worry so much about uniformzes and cheezes...and shitz...

Set up a Kraft Mac N Cheese stand somewhere in the vicinity that sells Kraft Mac N Cheese and has Mac N Cheese bowls and spoons. I like Kraft Mac N Cheese so I'll gladly have some.



See, this way the Big House and Block M sign still carries its dignity and everyone else can eat warm Kraft Mac N Cheese in Kraft bowls and spoons for advertising and such. Everyone wins.



Bottom Line don't mess with Michigan tradition in the House that Yost built and put random giant noodle where it had no business being to begin with.

It's not that I don't like Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. It's not even that I don't like that it's right outside our glorious stadium...

 

But it's the fucking arrogance.

I don't condone porn on the blog, but someone needs to combine the "body" of Peter north, the head of Dave Brandon and the slo-gun on this damn noodle and send it to DB himself. See how he likes a taste of his own perversion.

Love it or hate it, the "Noodle" was ONLY inside Michigan Stadium as part of the inaugural W.O.W. Friday (i.e. Gameday Destination). #GoBlue

Sounds like it might be gone tomorrow, which would be very nice and acceptable.

So it was a "gameday destination" despite no intention of having it there on an actual, you know, gameday.

Sounds to me like, as with the seat-cushion ban, they got inundated by complaints and were so caught off guard that they had to back off to avoid a revolt. Two miscalculations as Dave Brandon tries anything to make a buck, and the season hasn't even started yet.

and was relieved to see that he hated it. We should not let up on the pressure, however, and continue to let the AD know how we feel.

I'm sorry I'm not SO RELIEVED that MGoShoe hates it, like you are.

 

Seriously.  It's a fucking noodle at one end of the stadium.  Who gives a shit.  You guys sound like a bunch of holier than thou assholes about it.  And I have to shut up because I'm not part of the hive mind?  Yeah, you can go fuck youself buddy.

(a) I'm also sorry that you're not relieved.

(b) I give a shit. So do a lot of other people.

(c) Holier than thou? I don't like advertising in Michigan stadium. 

(d) You don't have to shut up, obviously, and unfortunately. Feel free to voice your displeasure. After a while it gets annoying when all you do is complain, say "who gives a shit?" when plenty of folks (including serious folks) obviously do, and insult people.

(e) I love you too.

It gets annoying seeing the whole board get up tight about something like this too.  Cry some more and take my points away.  I really couldn't care.

Daw, how can I stay mad when you end with i love you too.  Damn you and your ways.

I can see how that would be annoying. But so what? If you think we're a bunch of crybabies, then let us cry.

I know what you mean about the rabble rabble rabble, and that's why I brought MGoShoe into it. He's defended DB on the board before, kinda a lot, and I thought he'd be a voice of reason if there was one on this issue.

Yeah, I normally just avoid the non-sports stuff, but this just seemed out there, and crazy.

 

I do apologise for the whole "fuck yourself" part though, that was a weeeeee bit out of line.

 

But live and learn.  Onward to kickoff.
