Michigan vs Penn State (Big Ten Opener) Open Thread

Submitted by Wettin 3's on

The game is at 7:30 on BTN, for all who do not know. KenPom gives us an 86% chance of winning this game. The highest probability of any Big10 conf. game we will have this season.

Take criticism in stride, especially critcism given in jest.  This does not just apply to MGoBlog. 

If you absolutely need to start an open thread for a basketball game against Penn State, do pretty close to game time.  Like within 5 minutes.  That way, no one will give you crap, and if someone starts one way early like this, it won't be you taking the crap. 

Curse less at people on the internet.  It accomplishes nothing other than making you look like a classless jerk, and almost always encourages whatever it was that made you mad in the first place.  It's like trying to put out a fire with gasoline. 

The more you know.

And are you over 12 years old?

<br>You're not a special little snowflake for creating a thread. Being a jackass about doing stupid things does not encourage people to post in your thread.
<br>
<br>And you might actually want to POST in the open thread you create, if it's not just about being first.
<br>
<br>And yes, I don't think I really want to post in your thread anymore...

1. First of all didn't realize that there was a specific time period before I could start an open thread. It is my first open thread and my first mgoboard forum post in general. Sorry, next time I will only post within 10 mins of the game or whatever the specified time is. I was excited for the game as it is the first game Michigan will be opening the Big10 conference with. My bad!!!

2. I don't think 2 hours or whatever before game time is that long. Some people might want to comment on the game before hand or preview the game. It's not like I started the open thread yesterday or midway through the game, because I think both of those would be stupid. Again, my apolgies to all of you who were deeply offended by me posting 2 hours prior to your liking.

In regards to what's on the BTN right now, Michigan is playing Washington in the 1993 Rose Bowl.

Things I've learned from that game:

1. Gary Moeller looks a bit like Stephen King.

2. Tyrone Wheatley is black Jesus.

Gotta love Magic Smotrycz and his coast to coast no look passes. Then we got Tim "George Mikan" Hardaway with the running rolling hook shot. Too much

Keep dribbling Smot keep dribbling
