the official meltdown thread
Coaches gotta make tough decisions. Hutch decided to stay with Betsa, it didn't work.
It happens in all sports, and it will open them up to crticism. It's just the job.
Kevin McHale sat James Harden for the whole 4th Quarter one game in the playoffs against the Clippers. You think the Rockets would make it to the playoffs without Harden? No fucking way, but McHale made a judgment call in the moment and it worked.
Hutch's didn't, so she gets criticism. It's just sports. Hopefully Hutch makes the right call tomorrow.
She is 2 games PAST making any right decision on the pitching.
It's totally mind-boggling!! Totally fucking Wolverine Devotee schlong suckingly sick!! !!
No one can BAN ME! I am a genius.
Sucks eggs WD. Hutch CHOKED -- learn how to call a spade a spade !!
WD, I completely agree with this post and if you'll accept some unsolicited advice, you should stick to your general (and larger) point like you do here.
It'll make it less likely that someone who agrees with you in principle will disagree with how you frame your point.
You get so emotional about this shit.
It is cute.
We just had 650 comments in a game thread about a Michigan team playing for a championship on ESPN and people come on this site and bitch about us giving air time on this blog to that sport. That's cute. In 5 days, we'll be talking about the anal glands of dogs again and other OT topics.
Well, not everyone has time to spend every waking moment filling out stat binders. For those of us who have other things to do than follow every sport, especially when it plays at weird times and crams a ton of games into a short season, watching when the tournament comes around is kind of what 99% of people will do.
The bando who's added his $0.24 to every mgoboard thread ever just told you to get a life.
Maybe one day you'll realize that knocking what others enjoy and knocking their hobbies makes you look like a jerk when you don't even know the story behind them or why they're doing them.
You don't know the half of it, bud. So keep hating and I'll keep on keepin' on.
That's how the hockey threads used to be before you came along.
kinda what I was wondering.
I didnt realize people actually cared about any Michigan sports besides football.
I mean, I see some posts about basketball...amd some for hockey. I never actually read any of them. I figured they were just filling space.
Meltdown over softball? lol

Anyone who downvoted this probably has a relative who played badmitton at UM.
I downvoted it because every athlete on every Michigan team has given more to the Block M in one second than you ever have or will.
They're the ones dedicating 4-5 years of their life to Michigan. They're the ones who are working hard and busting their ass, most of them doing it for the last time in their lives with their respective sports that they have given their entire young lives to, while their friends are out doing what regular college student stuff.
I downvoted because I appreciate the sacrifice all of these athletes make and what they give to Michigan. If you don't, then that's your problem.
Yeesh.
I mean....I guess I just dont give a shit what anyone has given to the block M.
I follow Michigan football purely for entertainment purposes. I have nothing to give back and I have no reason to give anything back anyway. Michigan has never given me anything.
I didnt even go to Michigan. I have never stepped foot on the campus....actually, I've never even been in lower Michigan.

Oh....damn....I didn't really you were gonna make this all dramatic...
"I downvoted because I appreciate the sacrifice all of these athletes make and what they give to Michigan. If you don't, then that's your problem. "
Yeah, this got weird.
It is hardly a "sacrifice" to accept a full ride to a D1 school to play sports and go to class.
Fucking relax dude.
"I didnt even go to Michigan. I have never stepped foot on the campus....actually, I've never even been in lower Michigan. "
Hm.
I went to the UP a couple times.
I'm from Chicago.
At least I'm not crying about a freaking girls softball game
Not from MI, didn't go to Michigan, never been near Ann Arbor......
so what the fuck gives you the voice to talk down to other fans?
i bet you were a Heat fan a few years ago, brah.
What gives anyone who has done anything of those things the voice to talk down to me? lol
Its not as if being able to claim any of those things makes any of you more connected to any of the teams than anyone else. That is laughable.
I'm sure many care the most about football, but I got hooked on hoops during the '89 title run and hockey in the mid-90s.

It's fine to cheer just for just football - and these people are still Michigan fans. However, Michigan is far more than football. Many of us get that.
^100% this post. Nailed it.
But it is mostly football.
Anything that isn't football is just a way to kill time until football is back.
That includes classes.
Oh will you -- ugly hipster douche.
That moment when you realize you're the only Michigan fan that didn't get to take a picture with Mitch McGary today.
Softball has a big following. Basketball has a very big following. Not like Kentucky, UCLA, Duke, UNC, Kansas etc. but like Florida. Hockey used to fill the 7000 seats at Yost when they were good. You miss a lot of good teams and games if you only watch Michigan sports from September to January.
Michigan football and Major League Baseball. That is all that matters.
Sprinkle in some NFL here and there....but mostly UM Football and MLB
AAAAAYYYYYYYEEEOOOOOOO
Sorry, that was on a tee.
Go ahead and touch 'em all. That's a home run.
Something....Something....Brady Hoke......
Something....Something.....Dave Brandon....
Something....Something.....Lloyd Carr......
Something....Something.....RichRod....Something...Sheridan....Something....Foricer...Denard...
Something....Something.....Harbaugh.
I think that covers it.
say they haven't really been playing much between Sept - Nov the last few years.

Jessica Mendoza just said, "If you're Michigan you HAVE to pitch Wagner..."!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm just posting here so I can get downvoted too by whoever is doing that to literally everyone.

+1 Informative?
This is also the negbang. I just negged myself.
There is something about Florida's coach I just despise.

It's supposed to be a thread to let off steam like we've done for numerous games this year with stuff like snowflake threads.
Well, and....what else would people be melting down about? See thread right below: over 600 posts about a softball game we lost. I don't get the "irrelevant" comment.
