Nike gear is live
gear. $26 for sesaon Tee is a little more than past years.
Yeah, wasn't it like $15 with Adidas? I expect things like sweatshirts, jackets, and dri-fit to be expensive, but not a basic cotton t-shirt.
Seems like they also have a long sleeve right? That's a great idea. Were I a student I would get both for various parts of the season
Aaaaand the site has crashed...
August 1st, 2016 at 12:02 AM ^
and it would not go to my cart. It gives me the 520 error.
Oh well, I may have to take a half day off an head to State St.
...what did you think would happen by making a huge midnight launch event. Their IT guys should be fired!
August 1st, 2016 at 10:01 AM ^
$20 says the IT guys told them this would happen, but someone didn't want to spend the money to prevent it.
down faster than the blog when there's a major commit
good sir. Excellent observation.
August 1st, 2016 at 12:04 AM ^
And 502 error
Crashed it!
Site is now down. Sorry guys, my bad.
August 1st, 2016 at 12:06 AM ^
It's all your fault.
SAMgO = sieve.
Go Blue Eyes = Goalie
Me = Sieve :(
I hope they don't run out of stuff! Gonna order something tomorrow if the site works heh.
The site isn't working for me anymore.
I'm disappointed that there aren't any women's Tempo running shorts (iconic Nike women's shorts) - just a few Dri-FIT options.
August 1st, 2016 at 12:00 AM ^
was anti-climatic
August 1st, 2016 at 12:00 AM ^
Is there another site to buy gear?
(and so is Brian):
August 1st, 2016 at 12:00 AM ^
I take back all the jokes I made about the blog crashing. Biggest day of the year and at least the blog can render a page.
I'm a 34 year old man who waited up to buy online gear I could have got tomorrow morning. The site crashing just makes me feel really stupid

What a bush league move by MDen. Countdown clock has been on the site for two months, everyone is clearly pumped about the release, and you weren't prepared to handle the web traffic?
August 1st, 2016 at 12:08 AM ^
MDen.com from what I can tell is a pretty small run site. It isn't built for the load its taking now. That should have been forseeable, they did put it behind cloudflare. However, the problem now is doubling on itself. The page is down because it is serving too many pages, beyond what it can handle. Because it can't serve the pages people refresh to see if it's up. You now essentially have all of Michigans fanbase DDoS'ing the site. Not sure what they can do about it.
It'll be there tomorrow it's not going anywhere. It's not like a big football game when it happens here and you miss something.
It's clothes. If they sell out they'll get more.
It's up now.
August 1st, 2016 at 12:01 AM ^
You would think they would have actually prepared for such a spike in traffic.

No kidding. Think about how much cash they're turning away right now. Granted if somebody is that hyped that they want to buy at midnight of the release they'll probably buy later. But still--grab the cash when it's being thrown at you.

Whatever someone couldn't buy...someone else did. And like you said, the person who couldn't will just do it now. It's not like it's a limited edition and things won't be available.

'The server is returning an I know error'
I have an idea of what the problem might be...
August 1st, 2016 at 12:03 AM ^
We killed the fucking site two mins in.
August 1st, 2016 at 12:04 AM ^
Haha I got a screen shot of it right at midnight

I had a few items ($300) in the cart and boom, shaka, lacka.

I saved my beer cans for over a year. I really need about $1000 worth of gear since I waited for today. So I look at it like my wife, "But I saved so much by not buying over the past 2 years. I need to splurge on myself"
August 1st, 2016 at 12:15 AM ^
Who tripped over the cord?

If you're surprised the site is down I suggest you quit drinking and go to bed.

Yay! It's working for me now.
Holy shit, my wallet is going to be crying.

If ur bored and still waiting. Here's a great read about the incoming freshman class. Y'all have probably already read it but it's quite refreshing. There are a lot of quotes from Jordan Lewis. http://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/college/university-michigan/wol…
