What annoys me is that the sorostitutes wear dark blue (not our blue) and bright pink instead of maize. Don't stand out, be one with the rest of the student body.

Many Michigan fans...
Many Michigan fans...
...have autumn complexions which favor clothing in earth and spice tones. You should try wearing Michigan apparel in slate and saffron instead of maize and blue. Alternately, you can do what I do and stay away from mirrors and people who color coordinate.
As a matter of fact I like beer.

Perhaps...
Perhaps...
...it's the subconscious effect of associating the color yellow with cowardice. Also, we're known as the "Go Blue" school, so it could be a little confusing.

It's the Go Blue effect 100%.
It's the Go Blue effect 100%.
It's the Go Blue effect 100%. I ask any of my college football savvy friends who aren't UM partisans, and they think we are all about the blue, none of them think we wear maize to games. So you assume at least 40% of the people in the stands are non-hardcore fans/down in front people and you get why we have so much blue and no real maize out ever.

Shirts

They did hand out Maize shirts at the MSU game last week.

where?
where?
I didn't see them handing out anything and I usually come in by Crisler.
October 16th, 2010 at 4:24 PM |
I came in the southwest gate.

I came in the southwest gate down the street from Crisler.

I guess I should pay better attention...not that it mattered, I came prepared.

Lloyd Carr?!?!!

As a matter of fact I like beer.

Lloyd Carr
Lloyd Carr
Let me get this straight......you're blaming Lloyd Carr because:
Pearlie Graves decommits
DaQuinta Jones decommits
Boubacar Cissoko gets into trouble
William Campbell lacks production
Justin Turner transfers
Anthony Lalota transfers
Brandon Smith transfers
Demar Dorsey doesn't cut it academically
Marcus Witherspoon doesn't cut it academically
Troy Woolfolk injures his ankle
Donovan Warren leaves school early
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense to me.

Actually no...
Actually no...
...it was perhaps too subtle snark in the manner of the Ty Willingham meme that afflicted our friends in South Bend. I could probably should have added all of the other canards that are blamed for Michigan's current problems in addition to the depth issue I noted below, i.e.; "old Michigan", Drew Sharp, negative recruiting, athletic department vendettas, Scott Shafer, and they are all corporationey, and they make money.

As a matter of fact I like beer.

Lack of depth...
Lack of depth...
...and inexperience in the secondary?!!!?!!

I dig the maize.
I dig the maize.
But, then again, I dig the blue.
We are surrounded by remarkable opportunities to look great in Michigan gear.

I was unaware that this week was a MAIZE out. My tickets for the MSU game said it on the ticket but it did not say it on my Iowa tickets.

Maize
Maize
is awesome. I'm gonna get a maize colored hat. I can't stand it when Sparty calls it canary yellow

Today it is
Today it is
I wouldn't have worn anything yellowish today, not with a black and gold team as an opponent. Blue all the way today baby. Especially when it is NOT a maize out.
Candace: No... That why they make smart word box for tell monkey hard brain-hurty things.
Phineas: Removing prepositions makes it more condescending.

Really?
Really?
It is *our* color, it is our stadium. If they wear yellow it is only going to enhance the effect. In fact, they would help make up for some of the fans who won't wear Maize.
May you have a strong foundation

This goes in the same
This goes in the same
This goes in the same category as the "why don't people want to stand up for the entire game?" threads.
The answer involves Ceiling Kitten.
BUT, I wear it when it's a maize out. ALL that $$$ they make UM should hand out maize out shirts when u walk through the gate IMO
