People I hate
So as I'm in the cab home on my way back from my friends place I decide to go to facebook some of the status updates from our "Michigan fans"
"Dick Rod!"
"Way to go Robinson!"
"For the love of God.... there is nothing better than being up going into the end of the game. get your shit together Michigan, I'm sick of the this last minute bullshit."
I hate fans who bag on 1 player/coach whatever for a loss. It's complete bs you win as a team and you lose as a team. And when you have 5 TO's unless those are 5 picks it is not one persons fault.
I hate fans who are so irrational after a game that they go onto whatever medium that they have and just completely trash people.
This is a team that has 80+ Freshman/Sophomores on it and went 3-9 last year. This was not a National Championship team. Does it suck that we lost in the last minutes again. YES YES IT DOES. But don't bag on one player it just makes you look like an asshole.

It helps your points if those points are broken up in ways that can help the reader not get bored or pissed off. For example:
1. Tate did not look good
2. Denard had taken us the length of the field in under 3 minutes on his only series of the game
3. We were lucky to be in this game with a TO ratio of 4-1 (in the final drive)
4. (most importantly) This team is still very young. For anyone to bag on any of these kids (who are freshmen) because they threw one bad place, dropped one ball, etc is completely pathetic. They are trying their best and while YOU may think that RR made a poor decision you are an IDIOT compared to him. There is a reason why you are talking about this on a message board and he is getting paid MILLIONS of dollars to do this.
This is not a national championship team. If we put Tate in for the final drive he's not always going to be the hero and bail us out. If you think that I want whatever you are smoking or I want to be in whatever fantasy land you are in because fairly tales like that hardly ever happen in the real world. Today was Tate falling back to Earth and playing like a freshman and he's just that A FRESHMAN.

he drove us down the field and scored a touchdown congradulations. my post arent long enough for a readier to be bored. denard has not done anything that impressive for him to be in there when tate is our qb of the future. denard is not that good. under pressure as we have just seen what did denard do throw and interception. under pressure what has tate done. won two games and brought us to over time. all i am saying is that im not impressed with denard robinson and that he should not have been in there with two mins left. if you feel differently then thats on you. we can agree to disagree whatever i could care less. all i look at is at the end of the game who has come through for michigan and who has not maybe if we had like five or more mins left putting denard in might have been a good option cause he is a running qb but not with two mins

I have negged several posts by you in this thread.
I'm not a grammar Nazi (Well, actually I am, but I won't neg on that basis) but your posts do need to be in coherent English.
Some of your posts are barely coherent.
Furthermore, they offer no value - No original insight, nothing interesting, nothing clever. And they are rambling.
On a board like this where there is a high volume of posts, posts like the ones of yours I've read in this thread dilute the quality of the board. That's why people are negging you.
Here are my suggestions:
- Don't ramble. Be clear. Be concise. If nothing else, for God's sake, be clever.
- Don't feel the need to post every single thought that comes to mind. When you are thinking about posting, think about how your post brings value to the board. If you want to ramble, stream-of-consciousness style, get a blog. This board is not for that.
- Finally, no need for pristine and immaculate grammar, but at least take the time to make your posts readable.

I said that I believe Tate should have been in there in the last drive, but that by no means implies that I think Denard cost us the game. He led a drive down the field to make it a game and I definitely understand that. Do I still think Tate should of been in there in the final drive? Yes. But that's just my opinion and I know Tate could of easily thrown a pick too. As many people have mentioned, it's a miracle that we had a chance to win after committing 4 turnovers. In 2 years we win this game.

But I think that you have to stick with the hot hand and give the kid a shot who got you there.

I think I'm actually going to torture myself and listen to them this week...it's something you know you shouldn't do, but you just can't help yourself for whatever reason.
