Coaches' timeouts are worse. Basketball teams should get one, full stop.
"Though I received no official response to these sophisticated and elegant tweets to the Illini Athletic Department, I would like to think that Beckman spent the evening prank calling everyone in Illinois named George McLellan and then ordering an absurd amount of hats off an internet haberdashery to hoard in his home's hat annex."

"Tonight we were reminded that Michigan is five years further down the road. Which means we have a long road ahead. The State Farm Center renovations start in a few hours and will run for three years. Let’s hope that when they’re complete, we’re Michigan."

hooray

Accurate.
The NCAA's 90% claim debunked.
" If the school asks about it, they are advised to send a cease and desist letter, which preserves the eligibility of the student-athletes. SI ignores the letter and we all go on about our business."
"Are yiz ... are yiz Davie Corner?" he asked disbelievingly. Corner confirmed he was. The man dropped the sword and offered his hands to be cuffed.
this is correct

My wife is an avid Glee fan and occasionally I catch a scene or two -- anyway, there was an awesome one-liner on the show tonight:
"You ever look at a map? Ohio is like a giant turd that Michigan just can't pinch off."
There was also a reference in a prior episode to Michigan dominating Ohio in recruiting. See link:

"My wife"...
Had to throw in the disclaimer, but I must admit the show is pretty funny. I will watch it with the wife if there are no other options.
Man card revoked
I watch the Bachelor with my wife and I like it. I have the balls to admit it. Glee, though? Dude...
Absolutely not. You cannot watch some shitfest like the Bachelor then try and dog another fool for watching a slightly less shitty shitfest like Glee. "Reality" shows are the most wretched filth on television. And I don't mean filth in any moral sense. They are just absolute dreck.
My wife loves the Bachelor, so it is required viewing. Happy wife, happy life.
Here is the key for men/sports fans to watching the Bachelor: Realize that what it actually is is a tournament. Just like the NCAA Big Dance. So if you have to watch it, turn it into a sporting event.
So what I do after the second episode is to create a mental bracket of the Elite Eight, the Final Four, the Final, and the winner. I have my wife do the same thing.
It makes watching it much more interesting. When Emily dumped (Shawn?) early, we let out a loud groan as if Kentucky had lost in the first round.
You've got to check out Duck Dynasty. Great show.
I will alert my husband, who is close to getting me addicted to "Gallery Girls"
This is a word I should use more often.
Does brass balls = no brains?
Because admitting something like that outside of your "group session" seems a whole lot more like the latter to me? But maybe that's just me.
To inform Shane Morris...he tweeted the same info, and seems to like Glee too.
Shane is still in high school.
While I do tend to agree with man card being revoked since this is a little strange, the girlfriend always gives me the sad puppy eyes when she wants me to watch one of her girly shows.
Don't underestimate the power of the sad puppy eyes. Kills me every time.
Shorts Huma lupa licious. It's an awesome beer and I suggest drinking it while smoking a nice cigar. Amazing.
I recently went back to Michigan last week and had this at the Bells Brewery in Kzoo. Hops like whoa, but it went down quickly!
"No other options" meaning that your cable inexplicably loses all channels except the Glee one and you break all of your limbs, rendering yourself incapable of doing anything but watch television?
You do realize that there was a Thursday night NFL game right?
Yes. I was watching the bears game but my wife yelled at me to come watch this one-liner from Glee. I thought it was awesome so I posted it here.
Bears at Green Bay
Rutgers at South Florida.
US Open replays
Pawn Stars
Hell, even watching Tigers / White Sox rain delay filler on FSD would be better.
Go watch Hardcore Pawn!
And "my friend" yells at video games so much that his neighbor thinks he's filming porn.
What kind of porn?
Nice Nick Swardson reference!!
Something tells me that porn with only one voice in it - a guy's voice - might not sell very well. Your neighbor really needs to brush up on his understanding of porn markets.
Yea, Corbin Fisher's already got that market cornered.
(should be obvious, but don't come cryin to me if you google that at work!)

Mgoblog is a caring, non-judgemental community. You can tell us all about your Season One DVD Boxed Set that you got Jane Lynch to autograph. We accept you for who you are, ya musical loving freak.
We watch it on the west coast, and 'my wife' has to check mgoblog every hour. So thanks for ruining the best hour of her week.
Next thread: Better quarterback...Shoelace or Finn?
And can we get a UFR on some of these dance numbers?
What's this Glee you speak of?
that you like Glee.
If Shane Morris is a Glee fan, then it is fine for men to be Glee fans
they must know shane morris is a huge fan..
is EXACTLY what I was expecting. Seriously, now, you can't put this line:
My wife is an avid Glee fan and occasionally I catch a scene or two
in a post and expect us to just go with it.
MWIAAGFAOICASOT. My wife is an avid Glee fan and occasionally I catch a scene or two
MTs from Michigan have been on Glee. Our department is Top 3, no joke.
One of the main charcters went to U of M - so aren't Glee references the same as Kate Upton references now?
And yes, an ex got me into the show and it's funny, nothing to be embarassed about. Also, that whole "man card" thing came from a Miller Lite commercial. Anything representing watered down beer does not represent masculinity.
Like most Chinese beers, there's not enough malt and they don't do much more than wave a handful of hops in its general direction.
I do get a good laugh out of the idea that drinking Miller Lite has anything to do with manliness.
If you want water, drink water.
If you want beer, drink beer.
Miller lite is awful, even for lite beer. I have to imagine it tastes worse than piss.
There is nothing communistic about hating on a shitty lite beer that is probably the worst of lite beers.
for beer snobish comments. Sad but true reality - American lite beer is 99% pee
Edit: Oops - forgot I can't upvote until October. Ha. Well, would if I could, check's in the mail..
If I could get you an early return ticket without too much work, I would. This is a perfect example of how to get yourself out of Bolivian and back home. Good stuff.
the "prophet" is a kind prophet.. I thank thee.
Rather much unlike James Earl Jones in Conan the Barbarian, who was a mean prophet...
Also, that whole "man card" thing came from a Miller Lite commercial.
It's been around longer than that.
Hey guys, LOOK! This guy has a wife!
COugh CouGH *beard* COUGH!
My wife . . . has never watched Glee. Good wife, she is. FTR/FTW, neither have I.
I am preparing to watch "Pineapple Express." As soon as I post this.
was invited to a school musical a few years ago.
His comment? "Why would I want to go? I already know what's going to happen: they're going to sing, they're going to dance, they're going to talk a lot. Why would I want to go?"
You could make a similar argument about a football game: "They're going to run, they're going to pass, they're going to tackle a lot.*"
*GERG-coached teams excepted
If you ever again use a quote or plot line from Glee or any similar show as the basis for a thread I will campaign the mods so fucking hard to get you bolivian-ed. Regardless of the context, there's a point where certain boundaries, most especially during the season, should not be crossed. And you sir, have just crossed one of those boundaries. I'm sure it's a fine show, and I'm sure it was a humorous line, especially for U of M fans, but please keep this blog sacred by keeping politics, religion, RCMB/MLive type antics and Glee out of it.
This entire thread is spot on -- except for the fellows who are to ardent in their criticism of Glee. It's entirely plausible that the OP occasionally catches "glimpses" of this mysterious, albeit popular, woman-oriented show, and he happened to see a Michigan/Ohio reference when passing through the tv room to grab a beer. Entirely plausible. I suspect he even had a Milwaukee or a Rigid Sawsall in his hand as he paused between jobs, nodding proudly at his wife's feminine interest in a show about a group of misfit kids kicking out the showtunes on the big stage. All good!

Sounds like you know a little bit about Glee, Marvin... maybe a bit TOO much...
