Nothing else matters - it's gameday
I'm leaving for the airport in five minutes, leaving LOLesota to get to the D, and on to the lady of distinction, Ann Arbor.
None of the crap the team has had to deal with matters today. What's important? Finally, football things - time of possession, crisp execution, points on the board, minimizing turnovers, defensive assignments. THANK GOD.
If you're going, cheer louder than you ever have before. See you at the Victors March, enjoy the band, SUPPORT THE COACH AND THE TEAM.
GO BLUE.
Michigan 41 - Western 30.

For RAWK MUUUUUUSIC...

I am interested to see how much louder that the BIG House is going to be. Acoustically it should be louder but I have really seen a push by the fans to make it louder. We need the end of the 2008 Wis. Game all year! Hail to the Victors!
September 5th, 2009 at 8:32 AM ^
I think it's going to be significantly louder. The band was in there the other day rehearsing and there is a pretty significant echo now. Even Rich Rod echoed when he was addressing the band, and he wasn't even shouting.

I can't sleep....
September 5th, 2009 at 7:23 AM ^
It. On.
F. Shit. Up.
Go. Fight. Win.
I'm too excited to make normal sentences.
September 5th, 2009 at 7:48 AM ^
at 6:15am ready to go....600 miles away.
September 5th, 2009 at 7:59 AM ^
3:30 yet?
September 5th, 2009 at 8:00 AM ^
Yeah, me too. What the hell am I going to do for the next 4 hours before we leave for the game? I guess in about 10 minutes I'll go scout out the route. Someone said something about work being done on the bridge.
Yesterday I drove the 250 miles south to AA playing the Michigan Band's CD "Fire Up, It's Saturday!".
Can't wait to hear the Victors live. Over and over again after all our touchdowns.
PS Felt sorry for the folks headed north -- they will miss the game. But, the football gods exacted their punishment. There was a 40 mile (no, I am not exaggerating) backup on I-75 going north. They may still be there.

I am stuck in Kansas and can't make it up, so if you are heading to the game today please double your decibel level to account for me. Go Blue!
September 5th, 2009 at 8:08 AM ^
I bought throat lozenges -- there is no way I am getting through the game without them. Looks like another hoarse throat game.
September 5th, 2009 at 8:09 AM ^
flying in this morning? sounds like a long day
September 5th, 2009 at 8:10 AM ^
will be the longest morning and early afternoon since... well, last season. Today our boys take the field... today we are officially:
0-0.
GO BLUE. I'll see you all on the other side.
September 5th, 2009 at 8:36 AM ^
I'm bringing throat logenzes, suck candy, and some ear plugs among other things :)
September 5th, 2009 at 8:52 AM ^
I am beyond pumped for this game, is it 3:30 yet?

Take no Prisoners Boys!

To those of you going to the game, make us proud with the noise levels. I promise to be the loudest fan here in rainy Oregon. Go Blue.
September 5th, 2009 at 10:07 AM ^
Well then, we'll have to get together for a yell off because people around these parts seem to think I'm a little loud too. I'm in Stumptown, what part of the state you in? Go Blue!
September 5th, 2009 at 10:26 AM ^
Rip City. Been a quiet state since Thursday night, whoops.
September 5th, 2009 at 10:37 AM ^
Well, howdy neighbor! I'm in SE, Clinton/Division area. I'll leave the windows open so I can hear you yell.
September 5th, 2009 at 11:01 AM ^
Should be easy, I am in Ladd's Addition.
September 5th, 2009 at 11:12 AM ^
Ahhh, the vortex of Ladd's. It took me a full year to figure out how to navigate through there!
September 5th, 2009 at 11:55 AM ^
It is very confusing; having four rose gardens at four separate locations does not help. Go Blue!
