Stupid Question about Dave Brandon
Question:
What if Dave Brandon managed to land one of the Harbaughs at the end of the year? Would you still want him fired? Is this less likely to happen than us somehow winning out or only dropping one more game this season?
For the record, I don't think this happens, and I don't really care who the athletic director is because I have zero chance of ever influencing that decision.

can we just start threads about kittens?
October 7th, 2014 at 9:25 AM ^
I'm exhausted from seeing the otter week after week, no matter how cute that little guy is.

I knew I liked you, Bear.

This is the best thing you've said in awhile
October 7th, 2014 at 4:01 PM ^
Puppy? Kitten?
Really dissapointed in you guys- chimps are by far your closest DNA match and damn fun to be with. And all you can come up with are two species of carnivores that would shuck you down their throats in a Detroit minute if you were small enough.
No wonder the human race is so messed up- ya don't know who your friends really are,
October 7th, 2014 at 9:20 AM ^
Yes I'd want him fired
October 7th, 2014 at 9:43 AM ^
classy
October 7th, 2014 at 10:01 AM ^
October 7th, 2014 at 10:11 AM ^
I'll make a note of that
October 7th, 2014 at 9:21 AM ^
there are only stupid Dave Brandons.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:21 AM ^
October 7th, 2014 at 10:30 AM ^
What about Beilien?
October 7th, 2014 at 10:47 AM ^
about this entire thing affecting the basketball program. I think it really could, and I think it could give Bielein and future coaches in basketball and football have some pause regarding the Michigan fan base. That has been the most unfortunate thing. There could have been appropriate outrage without this. This has been bad for the entire athletic department, coaches and players alike. When you have Mike Valienti stoking the flames of outrage you know you have been had.
October 7th, 2014 at 12:39 PM ^
Speaking of which, is anyone else tired of MLive's Nick Baumgardner? That Sparty is just fueling the fires and loving every minute of it.
October 7th, 2014 at 12:40 PM ^
Guys, it's Beilein. "E" before "i" both times.
October 7th, 2014 at 1:20 PM ^
"E" before "I" except after "Y" ... or something like that. It's been a while since kindergarten.
Good thing I have spell check.
October 7th, 2014 at 1:04 PM ^
Since he's highly successful on the court, Brandon is probably really nice to him. Also, Beilein seems like someone who is very secure and not worried about his shithead boss looking over his shoulder. Thank goodness. And since Brandon didn't hire him, he probably would not be upset in the least if DB got canned.
October 7th, 2014 at 1:26 PM ^
Obviously speaking only to football, where Brandon thinks he has some sort of insight he can offer on film sessions/coaches meetings, etc. I doubt Beilein, Berenson, or the woman's badminton coach have a ton to worry about in that respect.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:25 AM ^
mostly because I doubt the legion of students are gonna shuffle their feet and say "Oh, well... sorry about the rally we held to fire you, Mr. Brandon. It's alright, we changed our minds, you can stay."
October 7th, 2014 at 9:25 AM ^
giving a guy a second chance, unless his name is David Brandon.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:28 AM ^
If Dave Brandon is fired do you give Hoke one more year?
October 7th, 2014 at 9:49 AM ^
October 7th, 2014 at 10:17 AM ^
Sorry, Sparty, he's gone!
Chances are it'll be another MAC guy, though, so I wouldn't worry.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:26 AM ^
Based on today's posting efforts and yesterday's anemic output (only three) it would seem the "what if" questions are now taking hold and replacing last week's "Feelingsposts" as topic de jour.
What if Michigan won the rest of its games - would Hoke be retained?
What if Brandon lands Harbaugh - would you still want him fired?
What if Kate Upton and Scarlett Johansen called you during a critical work meeting and demanded you come to their aparment for a threeway -would you go? (ok I made that one up...but still...what if?)

Well, your right. At least I prefaced it with a title that shouldn't waste anyone's time, I guess.
As far as your question, the obvious hedonistic answer is obvious, but which of the two women would be first?
October 7th, 2014 at 9:35 AM ^
Would my wife find out?
Does that really matter?
Decisions, decisions....
October 7th, 2014 at 9:42 AM ^
had an agreement that my wife and I have, it'd be a no-brainer. We both have our own versions of "the list." Ms Upton and Ms Johansson are most certainly on it. Means I gots a free pass.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:50 AM ^
If I recommended having a "list"... I would no longer need a "list."
October 7th, 2014 at 9:51 AM ^
and I guess that's one of the great things about my wife...it was her idea. And she announces who is on her list more freely than I do. AND she has females on her list. I love it.
October 7th, 2014 at 10:01 AM ^
Or are married to a porn star. Or live in Las Vegas or California.
/Mind-blown
October 7th, 2014 at 10:04 AM ^
Just a bit of advice on the list:
It is less of a problem to say that Kate Upton is on your list than to say "that girl who works in my office." Tried putting one of my neighbors on my list, that was the end of that relationship.
October 7th, 2014 at 10:07 AM ^
"The List" needs to include people who are, for the most part, unattainable. Folks in your every-day life cannot be on said list. That is a no-no.
October 7th, 2014 at 10:09 AM ^
October 7th, 2014 at 10:16 AM ^
Then there's the one you keep to yourself.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:28 AM ^
But only because I'd love to see what happens when Brandon comes into Jim or John Harbaugh's film room to help them break down game film. After that, of course, Brandon should be relegated to the ash heap.
Please make this happen. Pleeeeaaaaasssee.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:37 AM ^
Yes, this would be incredible even though it should have happened to him on Day 1 in 2011.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:27 AM ^
would want to coach under Brandon?
October 7th, 2014 at 9:27 AM ^
Fire him regardless. If he's around still to do a coaching search then pray he doesn't Schrute it.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:28 AM ^
Only stupid people who ask them. (sorry, couldn't resist..._)
October 7th, 2014 at 9:35 AM ^
I suppose the thread title "Stupid person asking a question about Dave Brandon" would hhave been a little too long
October 7th, 2014 at 9:38 AM ^
for your self effacing answer and your bravery. And for allowing me an opportunity to thread jack. But yeah, that's one of my pre-programmed responses whenever someone uses the term "stupid question." Sorry!
October 7th, 2014 at 9:29 AM ^
especially after this concussion debacle in which he threw his head coach under the bus
2) Dave Brandon is so fired. He goes before Hoke does.
October 7th, 2014 at 9:30 AM ^
Everybody be sure to wish Andy Potts, former UM swimmer and now pro triathlete, good luck at this weekend's Ironman World Championships this Sunday in Hawaii. Go Andy! Go Blue!
