Meta: Just like everyone else...I need a fix!

WolverineHistorian's entire catalog? if not, it'd be well worth your time

I keep an album of DVDs by the TV/DVD player in my kitchen. When I'm cooking, I usually have a game playing. I can usually watch them in small bursts if I'm eating alone or just doing a quick meal. It's not like I don't know how it ends.

Last night, I watched the first half of the 1997 Colorado-Michigan game. Would've watched the second half, but the file is corrupt on MGoVideo. Grr. The 1997 Penn State game is a great one.

The 2000 UM-OSU game is always fun. So is the 1991 game against Notre Dame. In fact, the other day, I was watching that one and noticed something in the background.

When Howard makes that incredible diving grab for a touchdown, very clearly in the background, you can see a guy with a mullet, a moustache straight from the Thomas Magnum School of Facial Hair, a pink t-shirt tucked into acid-washed denim shorts. White socks pulled up to the mid-calf completed the "Sweet Jesus What Was I Thinking??" ensemble.

I usually avoid mocking the folks from the 70s for their fashion tastes. It was a national problem. But while mullets, bad 'staches, and acid-washed denim certainly pocked the landscape of my high school days, this guy really went above and beyond.

That's one way to get noticed in a crowd 20 years later.

We destroyed them.  This is the source of all subsequent Yakkety-Sax.

I particulatrly enjoy Jerome "The Bus" Bettis pucker-factor as the game went on as well as the pregame Wies nonsence.

ND game last year, MSU games (Braylon Fest)  The Michigan - Texas Rose Bowl game was a phenomenal game, Stevie. B kept us in it... we missed winning it by inches.

EDIT: I forgot to include Wisconsin in 2008.  Say what you want about that year, but golly, that game featured one of the most improbable come backs of all time.

I'm actually trying to block out a space of time next week to rewatch the entire 1997 season.  Of course, the challenge will be finding the entire 1997 season somewhere.  Either way, I plan to act as if it is happening now and cry like a little baby at the end. 

I saw "Wednesday Recruitin" on the main page, and tried coming back a minute later and it was gone. In terms of "needing my fix", this is similar to someone sitting in front of a liquor store teasing bums with a dollar bill on a string.

The editing and blend of old and new was just the best I have seen.  It makes me want to throw on a helmet and run through a brick wall for Coach Rod just watching it.

What I do is always just go to WolverineHistorian's channel and look for my favorite games. The ones I normally watch are the 2008 Capital One Bowl Game, 2003 and 2004 Michigan State, 2003 Ohio State, and the whole 1997 season.
