Rivals Headline Re Derrick Green (Good)

The front page headline on Rivals: "Green says Michigan has the edge."

Sam Webb has been saying that we are the team to beat for sometime, but this is the first time that Green has confirmed that status.  We can definitely use both him and Deveon Smith to bolster a shaky RB situation (especially if Fitz cannot come back to full strength).

However, I cannot stand incredibly short gifs like this.  I have to watch it 12-15 times just to figure out what is going on.  Then, after I read the words, I stare at everyone's mouths to see if anyone is actually saying "come at us bro".  But of course, the gif loops too quickly and I can't quite be sure.  Then I get frustrated and keep watching to try to figure out what is going on....and then I just realized I spent 15 minutes trying to decipher a gif.

Weird. I always thought it was the other way around.

Not that I loved Rich Rod less, but that I loved Michigan more.

Wonder if it's a regional thing - all the IT and computer people I know pronounce it like "gift" without the t.  Never once have I heard anyone called it a "jif".

It's technically pronounced "jif" because the guy who developed the file format says that's how it should be pronounced.

From Wikipedia:

According to Steve Wilhite, the creator of the GIF format, the original pronunciation deliberately echoes the American peanut butter brand, Jif, and the employees of CompuServe would often say "Choosy developers choose GIF", spoofing this brand's television commercials.

Personally I don't care what he says, it looks like hard-G GIF to me.

And Kobe Bryant's dad wanted his son's name to be pronounced "Ko-Bay", like the steak, but no one does. 

I think most people pronounce it with a hard G.

I take issue with that statement. I hear people make pronunciation mistakes all the time, it doesn't make them correct.

Apparently the guy who created the format declared that it was pronounced "jif" but the vast majority of the nerd community immediately ignored him. Near as I can tell, pronouncing the hard g is almost universal.
