Some hate developing towards Denard Robinson already?

You could win the lottery tomorrow and literally give money away to your friends and family and someone will still be pissed and bad mouth you.

I live in TN where most people still hold a grudge over the whole "Manning not winning the Heisman" thing.  My wife and I were both sporting our Michigan gear today during a walk in the park and we were stopped three times by people that all said something like "That's one heck of a quaterback you guys got there".  He may not keep up the pace but it is good to be hearing good things from random watchers. 

On the plus side, he has a lot of fans in Connecticut: http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=342&f=2873&t=6351252&p=1

All of the haters are just pissed off that he's not on their team.  Sorry haters you're going to hear Denards name quite a bit over the next few years, so learn to love it.

I dare not tempt Angry Michigan ______ Hating Lucifer in any sorts.  My soul wants to be Denard's platonic lover, but my reason tells me to treat him with kid gloves.

Yeah when the rival fans say "No way he can make it through the season playing like that!" They mean "Please please please don't let him make it to our game playing like that"

The best haters gonna hate: http://thechive.com/2010/09/07/haters-gonna-hate-23-photos . The airplane, rubber band, and car ones are hilarious ones that I've never seen until now.

Tebow is also a genuinly good person whom I have a lot of respect for as a player and a man. That and his skills as a player led to a lot of hype, and so people got sick of hearing about him if they weren't a Gator fan. If the Denard train keeps rolling, you better believe it will reach Tebow levels, and anybody here who is a Tebow hater should be seriously reevaluating their thoughts about good players and good people who get hype at least mostly deserving of it.

Does anyone have a better resolution of this picture somewhere?

I feel like this would be a perfect haters gonna hate for Denard, but It's be nice if it was a bit bigger.

Rival fans have seen what has happened to UCONN and ND. They have seen what happens to victims of a Dilithium attack. It fills them with dread. For they know that once stricken, Dilithium poisoning acts quickly. There is no known antidote, and it is always fatal. It's speed and lethality are well documented.

So if you were a rival fan, having already witnessed Death by Dilithium... knowing that your beloved team is going to suffer a similar fate... knowing that you are powerless against the force of nature that is coming... you would also be angry, bitter, and filled with hate... you would also know fear.

Oh yes, you would know fear.

Saw the comment you were reffering to. Funny because the poster had a pic of denard celebrating the unconn win as his profile pic. Why bash the guy and then glorify him at the same time? Just one of the crazies I guess

it would be a sign that we weren't winning games.

I have news for people: the natural order of things since 1969 is that EVERYBODY outside of the UM fan base hates Michigan—the institution, the football program, the coaches, and the players. Everybody else in the Big Ten loathed Bo all through his career, because they suffered so many epic beatdowns at his hands. That's why victories against us are such a big deal.

Hate is a good thing in this case. Hate means you're relevant. Hate means they're scared.

let the haters hate, when has michigan ever had such a dominating player like this as a QB.  Im excited for big ten play.  Sorry lil brother shoelace is coming for you! And he is humble and always smiling too!

It's not a stretch to argue that Tebow gave people a lot of reason to hate him. 

 

Denard isn't arrogant or self-indulgent.  The only people with reason to hate him are rivals and those left in his dust so far.  He'll go a long way if he continues to put up numbers, stay humble, and flash that Desmond smile.

Can you hear it? That is the sound of your defense being Denarded.

When you're on top the world, EVERYONE wants a piece of your shit

The reason they're hating is because over the last 3 years the sharks smelled blood in the water and it became popular to bash Michigan and Rodriguez. Now after the start they've had and terriffic play of Denard the haters don't know what to do. We're going to continue to see hate and love pouring in but I don't care. Just win.

Taters gonna Tate?
