If you don't think twice before making Tom Brady balls jokes, you're gonna have a bad time.
January 24th, 2015 at 3:17 PM ^
I'm petitioning the mods to nuke any "Ballghazi/Deflategate/Chernoball" threads pretty much immediately.

Pats - Belichick presser
We're going to go with on DeflateGate thread per day for now because it really does tend to clutter up the boards with hot takes on a non-story otherwise.

Asking for a HUGE MGoFavour-MODS DELETE
Per the user's request, this will come down as their dilemma has been resolved for the evening.
January 24th, 2015 at 7:52 PM ^
Don't post a thread because you're "too lazy to look it up". If anything it usually takes longer to post a thread than it does to search for an answer to a simple question.
January 26th, 2015 at 6:45 AM ^
Apologies for the misunderstanding re: IncrediblyBLUE
This probably could have been resolved in the thread where the problem arose, or at least this apology could have been posted there.
January 26th, 2015 at 8:39 AM ^
Seriously, if a thread is deleted it should come with consequences. The OP should be docked half the distance to the goal line in vaunted MGo points (I would retroactively suffer on this front but have no issues with it.) This thread was beyond silly.
WD might need some professional or meaningful intervention at some point. It's borderline unhealthy and this community for the most part supports his delusional state. Obviously he has never played football (not that there is anything wrong with that)...just saying.
January 26th, 2015 at 9:12 AM ^
A fair number of the threads mentioned in the mod sticky have come with consequences for their originator up to and including a ban in several cases. As for this one, it still was not what I wanted to wake up to this morning and its existence (rather, the supposed need for its existence) troubled me, to be honest. I may not be done here.
To WD (and I hope he sees this) - misunderstandings happen but we really don't need to advertise them in a separate thread unless perhaps there is some very rare instance of multi-camp bickering that requires board-level resolution. Even on the Internet, these things are probably better handled in as personal a setting as you're going to get, which is the thread where it started.

Nothing but nonsense posts.

This thread could use some cleaning up

money from the bagman to commit to Georgia. Brilliant. Link
January 28th, 2015 at 7:29 AM ^
Might want to have a look through the DeWeaver decommit thread. Lots of posts trashing the kid. Some people.
January 28th, 2015 at 9:05 AM ^

Also, that danny account is still posting gibberish.
January 28th, 2015 at 4:42 PM ^
I don't think the board wanted Chip to commit.
January 29th, 2015 at 1:10 PM ^
are recruiting. Maybe something needs to be posted to let posters know this isn't acceptable? I know it's impossible to stop totally but it seems to be in a lot of threads recently.

OT: The Best Football Prospect Nobody Has Ever Heard Of
This same article was posted this morning. Easton Bruere hopefully gets a look from someone because of this publicity.
January 30th, 2015 at 11:00 AM ^
If you had asked me before me morning meeting what I would come back and see, it would not have been in me to guess all 120 or so downvotes of this:
Just when you thought things were going Harbaugh
....and please don't ever do that again, especially not on a Friday. You go to your room and think about what you did, as my parents were known to say.
January 30th, 2015 at 6:22 PM ^
Pickard commits to Syracuse
This could have been easily covered in the announcement thread honestly.
January 31st, 2015 at 6:20 PM ^
Differentiating between academic and sports arrogance
As an alumnus, I say we try to avoid these discussions - alum vs. non-alum - on the blog. They never end well. Also, the whole "Walverine" thing....do we really care about terms invented by the seedier branches jealous fanbase about an hour up the freeway?
February 2nd, 2015 at 5:49 PM ^
No Bleacher Report.
February 2nd, 2015 at 9:10 PM ^
If you could banhammer an IP, seems like Toad/Bagheera/Lord Grantham is enough of a jerk to warrant that. Calling a recruit a bitch because he commits to a rival is pretty moronic... the guy brings nothing but insults to the board.
February 3rd, 2015 at 8:21 AM ^
TheGhostOfYost lives on! We gotta be well past ten different incarnations since his original TGOY handle was banned.
February 9th, 2015 at 3:15 PM ^
that poster concept is such an unctuous mix of pandering, childishness, self-adulation, and dickishness - it would so nice to see it go away permanently.
February 3rd, 2015 at 8:50 AM ^
Calling Chris Clark an "attention whore drama queen" because he hasn't publicly announced the result of the biggest decision of his life to this point is the kind of shit reserved for the comment sections on Mlive and the like.

Snowflake. Not a problem with the sentiment but there should be some new info or analysis for an OP.
February 3rd, 2015 at 10:27 PM ^
Though I'm sure he'll just make another username five minutes afterward, I think it's time for the guy defacing Chad Henne's good name to be shown the door.
February 5th, 2015 at 12:10 AM ^
Please review the posting history of "Jolly_Mangina." He is an OSU troll masquerading as a Michigan fan.
February 5th, 2015 at 11:12 AM ^
I REALLY don't like Dantonio
I am certainly not a fan of the man myself, but this thread definitely wasn't going well for the OP.
February 5th, 2015 at 3:09 PM ^
Is there anything we can do about the constant attacks on Weber? I'm getting sick of every thread including some jackass who is bitter about a teenager's choice of college.
February 6th, 2015 at 11:15 AM ^
It's embarrassing at this point.
February 8th, 2015 at 8:04 PM ^
As I was told a couple of times, he's (a) an adult who should absolutely be able to handle anonymous people on the internet insulting him on a daily basis like everyone does, (b) he's a quitter and a coward who hates competition, and (c) he's an idiot who should have picked Michigan over O$U (and don't you EVER forget that $) because UM fans KNOW that Michigan is going to be great and the defending NC is going to lie and cheat their way into oblivion.
A bit of hyperbole, but this fanbase can be as butthurt as anybody, and it is kinda sad to watch be taken out on a young kid.
February 6th, 2015 at 8:26 PM ^
The Barbarians are Gathering at the Gate
Alrighty, we've shamed the OP long enough here, but it was an epically bad troll thread.
February 7th, 2015 at 7:44 PM ^
February 8th, 2015 at 6:21 PM ^
Kam Chatman or Jerod Ward - more discouraging freshman year?
Perhaps it is more wise to withhold judgment on a freshman playing much more than he might on a somewhat hobbled team on top of having to learn a system. Patience, folks. Also, this thread will probably not produce much of what the OP is looking for, and rightly so, in my opinion.
February 8th, 2015 at 8:29 PM ^
Parents: Do you expect your children to attend UM? Micromanage them to ensure it happens?
Hopefully, the OP got precisely what they wanted. Hopefully, the OP sits out the next few too.
February 9th, 2015 at 3:19 PM ^
Seriously, he was at it again.
I know this might be a bit extreme, but could the new thread bar be raised a bit? Maybe 200-250 points? Between these posts and the Weber stuff, it just feels like the same issues are being rehashed by a bunch of drive-by accounts.
February 9th, 2015 at 2:36 AM ^

Concern troll, Weber hater, etc.

Grooming your children for UM: The admissions playbook v.2015
Yeah, the OP seems to have stopped on, well...

Cardale Jones DOMINATES at football (...videogame vs a hospitalized child)
This one would be difficult to salvage at this point, even though the intent / purpose of the post was changed a bit after the original offering.
February 13th, 2015 at 2:42 PM ^
A2 USMC seems to be trolling the board hard, and is already down to an impressive -100 points in just 1 day on the board. Might want to keep an eye on him. I don't know if he's done anything ban-able apart from calling us all mouth breathers, but he's not off to a very good start here.
February 13th, 2015 at 3:39 PM ^
To would-be trolls, a polite reminder:
February 13th, 2015 at 5:10 PM ^
No more of these after the last one, which is where all other ideas for unpopular threads should go.
February 13th, 2015 at 6:37 PM ^

Tone deaf editorials on class aren't a great jumping off point for the board.
