UMass AD has a sense of humor

Submitted by A2toGVSU on

So this is just a little heresay, but I thought I would post it here anyways:

Someone I know was out playing his usual round of golf yesterday, and during the momentary downpour in Ann Arbor, he happened to find shelter under a pavillion with another party of golfers, all wearing UMass hats. 

Conversation ensued, and he found out that the UMass crowd just happened to be the AD, an asstant AD, and a couple of (probably pretty major) donors.  Of course, the question came up: "how do you guys plan on stopping Denard?"  It was unclear from the way I heard the story, but one of them responded, "well, we are going to do the same thing you guys did to Crist last week - poke him in the eye."

Again, I can't verify any of this, but I thought it was funny, so I'm passing it along.

No way. Anyone should be able to make that joke. If he said something like, "We're going to crush his skull until he gets a concussion and can't see out of one eye," that might be a little closer to inappropriate, depending on how he said it. "We're going to poke him in the eye" is just plain funny.

He was obviously joking and having a good time out on the course.  You guys should have joined his group and had a nice 4v4 scramble going. He seems like a guy with a good sense of humor, probably would have been a blast.

yeah dude, a joke that includes 1)  inventing a dirty play that our defender didn't commit and 2) our best player in the last 20 years getting deliberately injured is f - - - - - - hilarious.   I just can't stop laughing.
