What kinda cool M stuff did you get for Christmas?

It's a compilation of all the background music NFL Films has used on 8 CDs and complete liner notes.  It comes in 1-inch thick book with a pebble grain (think football grain) border on the book.

My wife was paying attention when Steve Sabol passed away and I came across this on YouTube and Ebay.  It's AWESOME!

MERRY CHRISTMAS and GO BLUE!

Got a diploma frame because I graduated on the 16th.  Won't receive my actual diploma until sometime in March most likely, but at least it has a home!

Couple M hoodies and sweats.  Needed the sweatpants big time!

I got a sweet matte Michigan helmet! s/

It says..."Kenny Demens says no...HARD!

It is priceless.

Modest compared to most here -

Pajamas
Hat
Pop Tarts
Grip pen
Hot chocolate (says it turns blue, we'll see)

I opened 3 tickets to the Outback Bowl! I live in SC so this one means a lot.

Michigan sunglasses and the Michigan Daily book from my sister in law and brother. Wearing the sunglasses right now at the pool!

Framed and autographed picture of coach hoke holding the sugar bowl trophy in the midst of maize and blue confetti.

A new hoodie. Pretty rad. 

I got my dad hockey tix for his birthday (we're playing Bowling Green that night, so it should be a respite from this down season), but for today he got a new M skull cap of the sort Denard and Devin wear under their helmets 

I got a pretty nice long sleeved maise clima cool shirt from my brother.  Can't wait to rock it to the UM/UCONN game next September.  Living on the east coast I have to settle for watching UM usually play PSU.  Instead this year I am gonna watch with my CT friends as we stomp them!

Got a Maize #3 Basketball jersey, Maize hoodie I've been looking for for about 4 years, 900th victory t-shirt, some long adidas black socks, earbuds, calendar and oh, this guy was probably the biggest surprise:

It's so fitting that he's staying right next to my signed Mike Hart helmet.

Got a couple cool shirts. An outback bowl Tshirt and a slippery rock one which I'm really excited for. Also Michigan poptarts. Fuck yeah.

For my 11 y/o son and basketball player:

framed Fab Five photo

#3 Trey Burke UM new uniform

blue and maize thin mini wrist bands that the bball team wears

UM hat

Charles Woodson rookie card

Jalen Rose rookie card

Jalen Rose card in UM uniform

Glen Rice card in UM uniform

Charles Woodson Starting figure

blue and maize jelly beans

UM candy bar

.... the uniform was expensive ($110) but the rest was fairly cheap.  Now that I look at it all, I think it was sort of UM over-emphasized... but then I remember, that is impossible to do.

 

Got 2 tix to the game against MSU at Crisler.

Got my dad the Michigan Daily's History of Michigan Football book, and had Lloyd Carr sign it. Interestingly enough Carr was a family friend of my dad's roommate at UofM, so we had a nice conversation.

Also framed some old newspapers of our national championship pages he saved, so now Rumeal Robinson and Charles Woodson adorn our basement.

As for me, just more blue and maize wear. Hockey jersey was an early gift I got before the season. Bought my little brother a "Michigan Brother" shirt, he loves it.

That are NOT really 2 XL. They barely fit my 12 year old. WTF?! Addidas blows.

My gf just graduated from MSU, and her parents got us tickets to the Mich vs. MSU BBall game in EL on feb 12..  

 

Can't wait as i have never been to a D1 college basketball game..

Mama was a very good girl, apparently. I got a Denard autographed photo! So freaking exited! Also got a book about the history of M football put together by the Michigan Daily, a M basketball t shirt and another ornament! Yay! !

My 3 kids (actually momma paid for it) got me airfare to go to Orange County Cali to hang out with my brother who just moved there from Denver, do an extreme mud run, and watch the Super Bowl with some of my oldest friends.

No kids for 4 days!!!

My mom (also known as NANA) comes up tomorrow to spoil my kids, so I'm sure there will be 2-3 items from the MDEN in there for me!

Life is grand!

But my wife kills me!!! Every year I circle tons of cool gift ideas from the mden catalog and every year she buys from the rip off sites like fanatic. The gear is never cool but I can't tell her that because its Christmas! Well here is to at least getting Michigan gear even though its all grey

Hagerup! He's da man!

From the parents. I have already used it and its wonderful.

I used some of the designs I had posted a few weeks ago as iPhone wallpapers to make custom t shirts for my family - I think they turned out pretty well!  They haven't been washed yet, so I dunno how well it'll hold up.

The most precious gift was a picture of my niece sitting on my M blanket. Booboo and I watched a lot of the games together this year

Huge Michigan Igloo cooler. Wheels, 4 cup holders on the top, fits up to 90 cans. Next year on Higgins and the golf course should be awesome.

Finally I can ditch the 2009 M hat and wear my new Michigan M hat with my new Michigan hoody. I swear this is the warmest sweatshirt I've ever worn! I also got an EMU sweatshirt and Michigan pajamas! Yellow with blue block Ms :)

got one of the very sweet WE ON shirts the bball team wore at the preseason NIT in NYC.  two thumbs up.

Canvas picture type deals. It says the words "michigan wolverines" ande each letter is a portion of the big house. So it looks like the stadium, but broken apart, only contained within each letter. Also got a Michigan hoodie. And my sister got me a Michigan alum shirt as part of our ongoing mocking of the Walmart meme. Also, she got a Michigan pillow pet and named him walvie lol.
