One Frames (demand) at a Time
James Franklin apparently has a sour grapes-induced tummy ache over the PBJ sammiches he missed out on at halftime Saturday.
He's demanding the prevention of potential confrontations in the Lloyd Carr Tunnel by having the Big Ten impose a 1 to 2 minute delay between the teams exiting the field at halftime.
Meanwhile, video of Saturday's little tiff apparently showed Janklin doing nothing but the opposite of peacekeeping, as he instead screamed "choice words" in the direction of the Michigan team and coaches.

I like cheese and the Carebears. Also, Eustis, FL is a nice place to visit.
October 18th, 2022 at 9:16 PM ^
"Nice area", as Jim Price would likely say.
I agree about Eustis, I've visited the town several times years ago when my mother-in-law and grandmother-in-law lived there.
My MIL was a Disney World supervisor at Sleeping Beauty's Castle back then. We'd visit and she would always provide us (including our 3 youngsters) free passes into the park.
October 18th, 2022 at 9:19 PM ^
“No way!” about Eustis! We moved there from San Diego when I was going into 8th grade. It was a definite culture shock! LOL
So glad you enjoyed the area and had some fun at Disney!
October 18th, 2022 at 9:25 PM ^
LOL, I can see how that would be a shock to the system for someone accustomed to San Diego.
We always had the advantage of keeping our visits to a couple weeks maximum rather than permanent.
October 18th, 2022 at 9:10 PM ^
Wow. Looks like we are living rent-free in the penthouse apartment of Frames’ head.
October 19th, 2022 at 6:17 AM ^
Frames is 10-ply. Super soft
October 19th, 2022 at 7:07 AM ^
In his defense, much better subject for him to talk about than his team's performance.
October 19th, 2022 at 2:44 PM ^
Frames: LEAVE MY LIONS ALONE!!!
October 18th, 2022 at 9:11 PM ^
Don’t care about this tunnel shit. They got their asses kicked. Onward.
October 18th, 2022 at 9:13 PM ^
Or have your team shut up and don’t waste food
October 18th, 2022 at 9:13 PM ^
His idea isn't a bad one. Only bad can come from those confrontations.
October 18th, 2022 at 9:20 PM ^
As MGoUser 'mbrummer' has already posted further down thread, ONLY if the home team gets to take advantage of our home field advantage while the visiting team waits and loses a couple minutes of the valuable time they otherwise would have had in the locker room.
October 18th, 2022 at 9:50 PM ^
We've kicked the shit out of our opponents in the second halves of those two games 56-17 so some good may have come of it.
October 18th, 2022 at 10:18 PM ^
We play bully ball. We're becoming the bullies of the B1G. I love it. Rest of the league needs to deal with it.
Don't dish it if you can't take it. Talk shit all week in the media and on social media, this is what happens Frames. Don't poke the bear.
October 19th, 2022 at 12:02 AM ^
You are telling me things can escalate in a tunnel and not during a game? How are we going to prevent that? What about fans who say crappy things? There is really no way end to this. It is about controlling emotions and focusing on the game. If his players can't control it, it is on him. He wants B1G to do his job rather than doing it himself. He is one of the highest paid and he can't even control his players? How about suspending a player for a game? That will teach his team to listen to his coach
Anyway, it is a long way of saying, controlling emotions is a big part of playing football. More rules could escalate things in other ways.

His bodyguard looks bored
October 18th, 2022 at 9:55 PM ^
bored, or maybe overserved at the pre-game tailgate.
October 18th, 2022 at 10:42 PM ^
That's his daughter.
October 19th, 2022 at 9:35 AM ^
He uses his daughter as his bodyguard?
October 18th, 2022 at 11:16 PM ^
Lord that picture. That suit. Those sunglasses. Frames is all style, bluster, talk and no substance.
October 19th, 2022 at 6:11 AM ^
I'd be styling, too, if I'd just signed a ridiculously large, guaranteed contract. I might even buy me some wonderbread, jif, and smuckers to throw around.
October 19th, 2022 at 6:26 AM ^
He probably throws creamy jif not crunchy. Crunchy is to hard he's soft like creamy.
October 19th, 2022 at 6:26 AM ^

October 19th, 2022 at 7:32 AM ^
Good looking suit, though.
October 19th, 2022 at 8:01 AM ^
I didn't know pitbull was at the game Saturday.....
October 19th, 2022 at 9:55 AM ^
That is an insult to Pitbull as he has more talent than Frames.....
October 19th, 2022 at 9:54 AM ^
Obviously that was after the game and his daughter realized how bad the ass kicking was and Frames doesn't care as he is still getting PAID!!!
October 18th, 2022 at 9:15 PM ^
Since the home team should have the advantage , the away team can wait on the sideline while the home team enters the locker gets situated gets a orange slice.
We will have field workers rope off the away team so their sensibilities won't be violated.
Of course the away team can choose to not to wait around, and just do it normally like they have for 100 years. Ball's in your court Frames
October 18th, 2022 at 11:27 PM ^
Nobody uses orange slices past 6 year old flag football. Maybe vitamin B injections…
October 19th, 2022 at 10:45 AM ^
Saban disagrees:
October 18th, 2022 at 9:15 PM ^
On the Field: UM > PSU
In the Tunnel: UM > PSU
Leaders and Best, MFs…
October 18th, 2022 at 9:26 PM ^
The video at the end showed Juwan coming down the tunnel at the end of halftime. I love how engaged he is in the football program as well.
October 18th, 2022 at 10:49 PM ^
Dang he loves Michigan as much as anyone. It’s awesome we have coaches that played their ball here!
Just glad he didn’t slap someone in the head.
October 18th, 2022 at 11:25 PM ^
IDK man...I'd pay good money to see Juwan slap Frames upside his five-head. Might knock some sense into him.
October 19th, 2022 at 12:21 AM ^
He was standing up exhorting the crowd to make noise. (He's kind of hard to miss).
He was also handing out a bunch of cardboard boxes about the size of boot boxes. I thought maybe it was some kind of recruiting swag but he started pulling boxes of popcorn out of them. I assume there were some basketball recruits there (but there were a lot of boxes); maybe he was helping with football recruiting too?
Apparently that's the way to get fed at the Big House without either (a) sitting in the suites or (b) missing eight minutes of game action -- you gotta know a guy. 😀
October 18th, 2022 at 9:35 PM ^
The visitors are closer to the tunnel. Move your ass.
Maybe if you didn't move like old people fuck, your team might have put up a better fight.
October 18th, 2022 at 10:50 PM ^
Word is the were purposely creating a log jam.
October 18th, 2022 at 11:02 PM ^
"Move like old people fuck". Whut?
October 19th, 2022 at 8:52 AM ^
Go watch Full Metal Jacket. You'll understand
October 19th, 2022 at 9:08 AM ^
Watched it when it was released. Classless remark to make.
October 19th, 2022 at 6:24 PM ^
To quote another drill instructor: "Lighten up, Francis."
October 23rd, 2022 at 8:21 PM ^
That's Sir Francis for you, hombre. 🙂
October 18th, 2022 at 9:47 PM ^
He needs to spend more time drawing up better defensive plays than drawing....
/this will never get old

When Michigan traveled to Notre Dame in 1994, the team said they didn’t want to be in the tunnel the same time as the Notre Dame players because of “previous incidents.” So they waited until ND was on the field to even enter the tunnel.
Of course, when Michigan took the field, Lou Holtz acted like a tool, looked at his watch and complained to an official. But that’s an easy solution. If you don’t want a confrontation, just wait a few minutes. And keep your PB&J’s to yourself.
October 18th, 2022 at 10:33 PM ^
Lou Holtz was and is a dipshit.
October 18th, 2022 at 10:47 PM ^
I wouldn’t want to be within 5 feet of that slobbering fool
October 18th, 2022 at 11:26 PM ^
In his case, it's spelled dipschhitt...
October 18th, 2022 at 11:43 PM ^
Lou says it's dipthsplit
October 19th, 2022 at 8:03 AM ^
and still is
