Tate news on Twitter
January 19th, 2011 at 11:57 PM ^
Does not work fast enough.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:04 AM ^
It should automatically push an update to tell you there's a new one, no need to F5!
January 19th, 2011 at 11:58 PM ^
Is his mom typing this?
January 19th, 2011 at 11:59 PM ^
Sounds like Tate judging by this line
I do hope all my young fans forgive me and benefit from my lessons that I have learned.
January 19th, 2011 at 11:59 PM ^
Link or Update
January 20th, 2011 at 12:00 AM ^
EDIT: Sorry I don't know why it didn't hyper-link
January 20th, 2011 at 12:02 AM ^
do you need a twitter acount cuz i see nothing
January 20th, 2011 at 12:08 AM ^
and I can see it. Try for feed updates
January 20th, 2011 at 12:00 AM ^
This is cool and everything, but can someone please tell Tate just to get his grades together and quit with all the drama queen shit?
January 20th, 2011 at 8:56 AM ^
You sir should get your own show like Dr Phil. Only it would be a five-minute format because you can correctly diganose the needed cure in seconds instead of pussyfooting around with a lot of touchy feel b.s. for an hour.

Tate -- maybe, just maybe, you should've
1) gone to class
2) not partied every night of the week, especially as a freshman
3) not been infamously known on campus as being a pothead
4) not said that "Michigan gave up" on you.
Now, I'm rooting for Tate to get it together (as long as he's not in Scarlett and Gray), but the beginning of this "press conference" was good, but then he starts to passive-aggressively bash Michigan. Not cool.
January 20th, 2011 at 3:31 AM ^
Oh Tate, I have no problem with these tweets. I have no problem with your turning to God as redemption. I really want to support you through this, but:
"I really wanted to stay. I was not giving up on Michigan, but in the end, it was made clear they had given up on me."
Not cool. Or... it means Hoke told him to get lost. In which case, maybe he should have said this and been clear. I bet his pride prevented him from doing so.
I'll try not to let this sentence get in the way of my wishing you well.
We'll always have ND 2009.
January 20th, 2011 at 7:14 AM ^
In other words, you have no idea why Michigan may have given up on him, but "it's not cool"?
Hey, way to judge a kid! You, just like the others calling him a drama queen for this post, really don't know the details, yet it doesn't stop you from pulling out the snark and unloading on him.
I wish Tate the best, and this was a far classier departure than Boren's, for example.
January 20th, 2011 at 7:38 AM ^
I certainly wish Tate the best, and will root for him wherever he ends up. I just don't like the way he went about this announcement. That's all.
January 20th, 2011 at 8:24 AM ^
Unfortunately, this really hinders our depth, and will likely impact, even more, the amount of times the staff calls Denard designed running plays.
January 20th, 2011 at 8:41 AM ^
The kid is a pre-madonna for all intensive purposes.
January 20th, 2011 at 9:16 AM ^
prima donna.
Pre-Madonna would be the album of Madonna demos released in 1997
January 20th, 2011 at 11:39 AM ^
January 20th, 2011 at 9:32 AM ^
In other words, you have no idea why Michigan may have given up on him, but "it's not cool"?
What's your point? I never said I had no idea why Michigan might have given up on him. I said that was a possibility. He sent out the tweet-release. I think I have the right to judge him the way I did. Hey you, #1, way to judge me, a kid (I'm not yet 40, that's a kid to Mattison). What gives you that right?
And for god's sake, don't compare him to Boren. No one else has. That's just stupid. I'm still anticipating Boren's public karmic downfall. He's worse than Tressel. Worse than TP.
As I said, I'll try not to let that statement - which to me sounded too much like blaming UM - stand in the way of me wishing him well. It's pretty negative to say UM gave up on him. It could be said that UM watched Tate fuck himself and decided that they weren't going to go out of their way to bring him back to the university - he was, after all, no longer a Wolverine player or student. They didn't give up as much as they simply watched Tate force himself out.
Too bad, really. Good luck, Tate.
January 20th, 2011 at 8:20 AM ^
Tate was castrated?! OMG!!! That would make me stop going to class.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:05 AM ^
Never mind, in the time it took to write my original post, all my questions had been answered above me. As a thank you (and since I can't delete my original post), here's a picture of a cat that appears to be peeing standing up:
January 20th, 2011 at 12:06 AM ^
If you don't have an account or are not signed in, it doesn't update instantly.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:09 AM ^
Cool, thanks. I've tried checking TomVH's twitter for breaking news in the past, only to find myself more out of the loop than if I had just stayed here. It all makes sense now.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:02 AM ^
I want to just have this update automatically without banging F5.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:04 AM ^
twitter.com/qbforce will do that for you...
January 20th, 2011 at 12:08 AM ^
If you use firefox there is an add-on you can download called "ReloadEvery." You pick the frequency of the update, enable it and it will automatically refresh every 5,10,15,30,60, etc. seconds. Very handy!
January 20th, 2011 at 12:03 AM ^
so far it doesn't say anything except that he's learned from his mistakes. no real news.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:04 AM ^
January 20th, 2011 at 12:04 AM ^
I am...
But this "press release" reads like a random stringing together of some religious daily calendar affirmations.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:05 AM ^
is this his farewell Michigan speech? Nonetheless, I am rapidly hitting refresh
January 20th, 2011 at 6:09 AM ^
If someday you hit "rock bottom", like getting demoted to second-string, you will understand.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:06 AM ^
January 20th, 2011 at 12:08 AM ^
A fancy German?
January 20th, 2011 at 12:07 AM ^
I feel like this whole thing may end with and now I am taking my talents to south beach.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:12 AM ^
This is not looking good...Did he get bustd for something
January 20th, 2011 at 12:27 AM ^
Bad grades and bad attitude.
January 20th, 2011 at 1:55 PM ^
January 20th, 2011 at 12:08 AM ^
No idea what the heck he's trying to say here.
Less drama, more homework, Tate.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:09 AM ^
If that is what he means by "asking for God's help," it just might work. But there are no guarantees. I just hope he continues to grow and manages to amalgamate his feces soon.
January 20th, 2011 at 2:18 AM ^
Apparently he thought God would write his English 125 paper for him.
January 20th, 2011 at 7:06 AM ^
or do his chem 125 team reports....
January 20th, 2011 at 12:13 AM ^
does not sound promising
ED:
"QBForce QB Force
January 20th, 2011 at 12:12 AM ^
Sounds to me like he's gonna transfer after reading that last message.
I hope this doesn't end with him saying, "So I've decided to take my talents to South Beach and play for Al Golden".
January 20th, 2011 at 12:16 AM ^
If he takes his talents to south beach to play for Golden. I'm going to Miami personally to kick him in the nuts.
January 20th, 2011 at 12:21 AM ^
Tate or Golden? Does Golden have a DC yet, maybe he will go after GERG next.
