OT: "UM fires football coach, athletic director" (Yahoo Sports, NCAAF)
No, no, no - I have no intention to shock anybody although myself almost choked.
This is the real title, from Yahoo Sports:
UM fires football coach, athletic director

First thing I thought was, did these guys publish it too early? It is not April 1 yet.

Title: Epic Fail

Don't give them the pages views

Eh, it's a desperate grab to get viewers for a low interest story. They're just hoping Michigan fans, or fans of another M-named school might click it.

So you realize that this is a bad title meant to enrage, so create a post on a site filled with hardcore Mich fans, and post that SAME title....if I was an english major I might call that ironic
Happy Friday Everyone, as LMFAO would say, Everybody!!!, Shots! Shots! Shots

As an English major, I have to say that the word "assclown" is often used indiscriminately. This, however, is the work of a true assclown . . . .

I'm pretty sure what you just described is not ironic. In fact, what you described might be literally the opposite of irony.

I'd use the subjunctive.
Long live John Rubadeau!

...and how poorly it was presented to the MGoPublic:
Having said that, I hope Montana can find the right personnel to straighten out that program.

Worst thread of the year. Well actually, my affirmative action thread was the worst of the year. But this is a close second.
March 31st, 2012 at 12:21 AM ^
But the thread/post was deleted. But is the aforementioned "AA" thread what got you to -9500 MGo Points?!? Sorry if I'm invading, just saw that a few weeks ago and wondered "how it happened".
March 31st, 2012 at 12:37 AM ^
I'm kind of creeped out that you know this.
Thank you! I couldn't have done it without the Mgoblog community.

I thought a thread a month ago preaching the value of eating vegatables over meat was the worst ever. I was wrong, you win. Extra points for giving the article pub. with the link....anger.
There was a thread about vegetarianism? I don't see what would be so bad about that. Frankly, it's true.
whether or not its true isn't the point. I don't want to come to mgoblog to read about people's social/political views.

And really don't think much of it. I'm not that paranoid of a person to actually read that and have my heart start racing. I guess I'm just that suave a dude, calm and collective as some might say! Anywho, it really does show how fast-paced a society we are these days, that we can't get through half of a sentence before our minds start making us freak-the-eff out over certain "word pairings". Welp, this post was pointless and shows how bored I am. Go Grizzlies?!
Myself doesn't like this post.

I've been snookered by the fact there are multiple UMs out there so this didn't really hook me. During the RichRod era, maybe it would have. But Brandon and Hoke have been doing such marvelous work you know in an instant it isn't us.

No, no, no - I have no intention to shock anybodyWhat exactly was your intention then?
How irresponsible of Yahoo Sports. Everyone knows that the only thing UM could possibly stand for is the University of Michigan.
This has been almost as extremely downvoted as recruiting updates are upvoted...haha
