As a Spartan fan....."Mos Eisley spaceport [i.e. Cedar Village]: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious."

It must be nice to be a Sparty and write for the Detroit News and Freep and be on all the radio stations. When your alumni and fans act like idiots you can say well gee, it is just a tradition it's not all that. Then when you get a story about too much practice from Ann Arbor from some student athletes with an axe to grind you can publish and talk radio it to the degree of major violations. Give me a break its just "Tradition" as long as it isn't in front of my house and my trees are still there in the morning I suppose this "Tradition" is ok with me.

You Trolls don't you dare Rosenburg me either because your Alumni at the Freep ran like Denard Robinson with the story after it was published.

I'm considering opening a used couch store in East Lansing. I'll just gather up all the couches from nearby Goodwills & Salvation Armys, and then mark them up and resell them in EL. Gold mine.

What funny is if you go on to RCMB right now, half of the comments are saying that the refs at the ND game are the only thing keeping them from a national championship game. HA.

Here's the bottom line on that game: 1 of the pass interferences was absolutely correct; the 1 defensive holding was absolutely correct; 1 of the pass interferences was a 50/50 call; and 2 of them were absolutely poor calls - and there isn't a lot of wiggle room on that.  The announcers (ND's crew) saw/said it, Mike Perreira tweeted about it, analysts commented on it ex post facto - and they were all in agreement - there were some really bad calls against MSU that day...It is what it is, and what it is in this case, is that MSU was a bad call (or suspect play call on the wr reverse toss) away from probably playing for a national title...

Don't worry, you won't self-immolate if you admit it...

I only visit RCMB when they have something to whine about.  Besides, who needs to visit RCMB today?  All of the idiots here who support couch-burning are slowly turning the Michigan fanbase into the classless Sparty fanbase.  That will make even great blogs like MGoBlog have RCMB elements.

Sparty gonna sparty. I'm a bit surprised the police were surprised. I guess they figure the chances are not good they'll be at this point again any time soon so better make it worthwhile.
