I mean, I don't really see why? The unceasing obsession with every last bit of satellite camp ephemera seems to be more less constrained to our fanbase, particularly since the NCAA ban (which WAS worthy of discussion) was lifted.
I really don't need to know every single time the words "satellite" and "camp" are uttered in the same sentence by the head coach of West Georgia College for the Legally Blind nor do I need to know every time someone schedules one at some far flung high school. They are nowhere near that important.
Because the SEC temorarily got them band because they are shitting in thier pants about our head coach and we think that's kind of cool. So we talk about it often on this Michigan football board. In the off season. When there is not much else to talk about.
*banned *their
Do you need to know how many times "satellite", "camp", and "ephemera" are uttered in the same sentence. If so, it's 1.
Well.... now it is 2...
Still using this one, eh?
Tongue and cheek, huh?
For all in tents and porpoises, I could care less.
Don't be in porpoises. They hate that.
is offensive. After that, I ignore everything else you say.
Brodie, have you followed the SEC trolls at ALL?!
This isn't a coaching camp, it's a recruiting camp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT'S why we care...
Why don't YOU?
You like snow apparently.
It's relevant to Michigan football and it's the off season. Why wouldn't it be discussed here? I'm more likely to click on a satellite camp thread then a baseball or softball one.
I mean
if you're more interested in finding out that a Michigan assistant will spend a day or so in Buttfuck, Alaska so we can potentially sign a 2 star fullback than you are actual sports
then we're on two extremely different wavelengths
get that right. Second of all, no--satellite camps in and of themselves ARE like paint drying. What we like is OMG shirtless Harbaugh and the turf war aspect--holding them in the right nostrils of all our most despised enemies, taking their guys, putting them on our side, and sisternizing with their wimmen (or men, cuz' we are not prejudiced and each to her/his own) along the way.
will be the key to a national championship.
Don't mess with Alaska; it's bigger than Texas.
Brodie - I get where you're coming from. There are lots of posts on this site that I think are pointless and uninteresting to me. That's OK though, because I don't read them. And if I do, I don't think that's anyone's fault but myself and I SURE AS HELL don't start a post telling other people what they should or should not be interested in (or to simply tell people what I'm not interested in).
I think the satellite camp thing has gotten more attention than it should, but I still like to see where we're having them because we can get good recruits that way. And I do find it interesting that Harbaugh has so ruffled the feathers of so many "power school" coaches.
Yes Brodie, I think you may have stumbled upon a kernal of insight in your field of drivel, like the proverbial blind squirrel -
WE (most of us Michigan FB fans) are on very different wavelengths than you are. These camps spread the word of Coach Jim Harbaugh, and like disciples, we heed it!
You go on with your own interests and stumble back over to the blog on Labor Day weekend to see how the season turns out.
It's cool with us...
Talk about subjects I could give a flying f about..sorry baseball softball folks in advance, I just don't click em and even new basketball assistant coaches? Could care a less, I know Beilein is an outstanding coach and he'll resurrect the team next season so I'm good there.
Football? I want to know everything, every last detail, satellite camp in Samoa? Yes, very important, need to know this, need to know every detail.
You realize this is a Michigan sports blog, right?
I don't downvote anyone, ever. I also encouraged my own negging. MGoPoints are the currency of the chronically board
Chronically board. I like that.

FWIW, I believe Sputnik was the very first 5*.
people discussing the camps, it's simple, just ignore what bugs you. You don't have to immerse yourself in the discussion, just sayin'..
