September 1st, 2018 at 2:25 AM ^
Seriously....why does it get worse as we age?!?! Should have more important things to worry about now! Oh well.
September 1st, 2018 at 12:15 AM ^
The countdown finally ends! So hyped for this season!
September 1st, 2018 at 12:17 AM ^
Time to put all of the off-season weirdness behind us and go win some games.

The smells. The noise. The atmosphere. That first walk through the tunnel, the stadium opening up in front of you.
Players come out for warmups. Polite applause. One last check of the starting offensive line.
The recorded music ceases, a silent pause, and then a voice: "Good Afternoon..."
We get the same adrenaline rush as the drums play, the fanfare begins, the drum major leans back...
Nerves. Excitement. Cheering. Joy. Thousands of fists in the air, crying: "Hail!"
A ball is placed on a tee. The kicker holds up one hand. In the stadium, watching in a living room, listening in a car, all around the world, together. All holding our breath.
Eleven players run forward.
Football is here.

Holy.......

Preach

saturday football has got to screw up sermon prep time. either that or you have to prevent yourself from filling it with football analogies which dominate your thoughts.
September 1st, 2018 at 12:36 AM ^
Going to sleep now. I’ll bet I get no more than 6 hours. Too excited.
September 1st, 2018 at 5:58 AM ^
Holy shit. I woke at 5:55...
with a really bad pinched nerve in my back, too. This is not comfortable.
September 1st, 2018 at 7:06 AM ^
Samesies.
September 1st, 2018 at 8:35 AM ^
What are the odds that two different posters both woke up at 5:55, with pinched nerve in their necks and are uncomfortable? Hope you both feel better soon (especially around 11 PM EDT tonight).
September 1st, 2018 at 1:07 AM ^
There are....
ZERO DAYS BITCHES
September 1st, 2018 at 1:08 AM ^
Did Brain post his prediction for Michigan’s overall record this season?
September 1st, 2018 at 5:55 AM ^
This guy?
September 1st, 2018 at 1:23 AM ^
Thanks guys for a great countdown to the season with all the support for the “There are...” posts. I’m so excited that the season is finally here!

ND can't hold my donkey rope!
September 1st, 2018 at 5:55 AM ^
I'm lying in bed about to get up and watch my wife, daughter and sister in law run in a 4 miler for breast cancer awareness and all I can think about is football that's over 13 hours away. Holy crap I can't wait.
September 1st, 2018 at 8:39 AM ^
Post had an intriguing start, "I'm lying in bed about to get up and watch my wife...". Then it took a hard turn to a G rating.
September 1st, 2018 at 5:58 AM ^
About the throw the pork butt on the Big Green Egg. The challenge for the day will be to refrain from cracking the beers until a decent hour. Since I'm at home and excited as hell, I'm hoping I can hold out until at least noon. Most importantly:
WIN THE GAME!
September 1st, 2018 at 6:06 AM ^
It's FUCKING GAME DAY!!!!!!!!

The 2018 Revenge Tour starts today!
September 1st, 2018 at 8:13 AM ^
At last, we've arrived at the start of another season.
I guess I'll line up the Snowflake threads now because of the uncertainty on how MGoBlog 3.0 is going to work with this concept, or indeed IF it will even be feasible.
September 1st, 2018 at 8:48 AM ^
September 1st, 2018 at 8:41 AM ^
HAHA!!! Last night, about 11:45, I thought about queuing up this same post. But I knew someone would, so I didn't. I was not let down!!!
GAME DAY, BITCHES!!!!
September 1st, 2018 at 8:46 AM ^
Well, here at last, dear friends, on the shores of Lake Michigan, comes the end of our preseason in Ann Arbor. Go Blue! I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.
September 1st, 2018 at 10:04 AM ^

So, I begin my first football season without my dad. I went to my first game with him in ‘73. Went down to South Bend yesterday to do nothing but put a hex on the town... just like dad used to do week of the ND game. Went over to see mom... it’s her first season without dad in 57 years (at least). She’s in good spirits but it’s gotta be hard. I’ve got one of my brothers coming over to watch the game... plenty of food, beers, etc. I’m throwing dad’s old Ufer LP on the record player now. I’m expecting dad to put a hex on touchdown Jesus. GO BLUE!
