Stolen Signs and Injuries (i.e. the MSU Complaint), Revisited

I saw the sign

And it opened up my eyes

And I am happy now living without you 

I left you ow oooow oooooooow

I'm tired of all of this. 

Everyone needs to shut up and play the goddamn games. 

This confirms what I read here last night. Michigan has some information to share similar to the charges that have been made against us.  Glad to see that coming true.

i'm still waiting for the big ten to ask Michigan if they feel safe playing PSU on Saturday. I'm sure that call will come any time now.....

Interesting how you can put those two things together and despite Haller being an asshat for even suggesting it given (waves hand at last year), it also looks like some shade at another school.

"We know Illinois had M's signals, because we were all talking about it, and they ended BC2's season.  I'm worried they might hurt one of our guys now that they know we know, and they knew we knew."

(pearl clutch and sparty commits another potentially paralyzing hit)

I think Michigan is pushing back so hard on this because they have dirt that numerous other schools have done the exact same thing and/or worse.

Gonna play the old “if you try to suspend Harbaugh, you better be ready to suspend half the B1G coaches.”

plays well with the “let all the info come out before acting” Santa was talking about. Due process, etc. 

Michigan may have laid a multi-year trap that’s about to blow up in a lot of schools faces, including Petitti and the B1Gs. Petitti may have to pivot from “punish Michigan” to “what the fuck are all you folks doing” particularly if it comes out Michigan is the least “involved” in all these shady shenanigans.

Michigan may have just been like “if everyone else is doing, hire that crazy Stalions kid to do it too.”

Protip, don't ever try to use MSU logic to make an argument.

Ryan Walters coward handshake coming full circle. 

" just calling a spade a spade "

This whole thing is becoming an article out of The Onion.

Let’s not contort ourselves to find ways to justify Haller’s moronic commentary.

I think all this is a last gas effort by Michigan. It’s an “everyone comin down with me” situation that won’t hold water. Stealing signals is legal. They gave this information to the BIG on Friday and over the weekend and still got hit with a notice. That tells me that it didn’t fly w the BIG or they just don’t care and will out Michigan (Harbaugh) regardless.

​​​​Haller worried about players potentially getting hurt

If Haller is so worried about player safety he ought to keep his players from spearing a defenseless Michigan player laying face down.  There was nothing related to football in that play, just a blatant attempt to injury an opponent.

Edit: sorry to have offended DarkerBlue's sensibilities. I've changed it to a link.

Sparty gonna Spart.

So you’re going to Spart too?

I’m sitting out that crusade. It was asinine when Sparty said it; it’s still asinine now.

We know that wristbands can mitigate the risks of having signs stolen. Wristbands require a certain degree of reading ability. Is it any wonder that one of the places where they don't go to play school would need to find another approach?

Why did no Ann Arbor media ask Ryan Walters, during his fit of "honesty" in his post game press conference, about this?  This must have been known at the time and would have made for some decent fodder for our side.

Something I find odd about the whole "sign stealing leads to injuries" idea is that, in practice, you run a bunch of full-contact drills in which both sides know exactly what the other is going to do.  Or at least that used to be the case.
