Why Michigan may lose the remainder of its games.

Submitted by friend on

Why Michigan may lose the remainder of its games.

1) RR continues to be bull headed and refuses to adjust to what is happening now. A quick short pass once in awhile wouldn't hurt.

2) RR keeps refusing to except blame and continues to blame the players which demoralizes the team even further. Dah.

3) RR does not get back to basics and correct the turnover problem. 101 coaching.

4) RR does not realize that as great as he is, McGuffie can not run North/South without huge holes.  RR refuses to mix things up and use his other backs so they are not getting enough snaps in practice and continue to fumble the ball.

WVU never was as ugly as UM is this year.  They also did not go through as drastic a change as UM.  A good coach would have implemented things gradually and adjust to what he has here and now. A good coach would not constantly make excuses for failures without taking some of the blame himself.

If we lose to Toledo as much as I hate to say it, I think RR should be fired. Martin too.  I really would like to see his system fully implemented, but, poor play calling, refusal to adjust and blaming everyone but himself is not a formula for success and beneath the high standards expected at Michigan.

The international economy may completely crash (anyone want to buy Iceland--cheap, cheap!) putting cable companies (and everyone else) out business making it impossible for anyone to watch these football games.

I know that I'm hoping Iran gets a nuclear device, detonates it on Isreal, drawing the entire world into a nucular hallocaust. Bundle up for the nucular winter!

But first Michigan has to fire RR because yeah!

weren't so stubborn, the economy would be much better off.  and we'd all have jet packs and hover boards.

once UM hires Brady Hoke (whose team is undefeated), all of these problems should sort out.

This guy:

 

- Voted against FDR because he didn't end the depression quick enough

- Left the 04 MSU game early and still tells people he was there for the whole thing

- Thought Pepsi Clear was a great idea

- Petitioned for the US to rejoin England in 1812

- Fired Jim Tressel after his first season @ OSU

- Didn't think Belichick could win in New England after his 5-11 campaign

- Never really thought Michael Jordan had the game to be an NBA star

- Told Lance Armstrong to hang it up after getting cancer

- Doesn't realize West Virginia went 3-8 in RR's first year

- Re-sets the XBox right before he loses any game in his dynasty

- Isn't so sure about these "motorized carts" careening around the streets - horses are a better alternative

- Thinks the average person will have no use for a personal computer

- Has to wear a safety helmet in his daily life (court odered)

Absolutely hilarious. Brilliant.

- Supported outlawing any water-going vessels after the Titanic.

- Never goes on vacation because there's a possibility it could rain.

- Advocated the cancellation of the space program and admitted defeat in the Cold War after Sputnik.

- Demands refund at zoo because the monkeys were either (a) sleeping or (b) refused to come out of the cave.

There are so many things wrong with this post that I don't even know where to start. 

 (1) Threet is extremely inconsistent throwing the ball.  They were able to move the ball in the 1st quarter due to some good passes, but after that Threet went dead cold. 

 (2) I've watched a bunch of clips from RR pressers.  He is always quick to put the blame on himself as head coach.  I do not hear him deflecting blame or responsibility for the mistakes.

(3) How do you know what he is focusing on in practice? 

(4) The offensive line is just not good.  There is nowhere to go on most running plays, a different RB will not fix that.

(5) WV was 3-8 in their first year with RR.

I hope you publicly shamed somehow for being the dumbest man alive. It's people like you who ruin this country. You are the scum of society. You are worse than a criminal. You are too dumb to pull off anything that will actually get you in trouble. Instead, you are just a drain on the collective intelligence of America.

 

You get a 300,000 mortgage when you make $18,000 a year and then whine about the payments. You fall for gas panics and fill up nine portable containers only to see the price drop the next day. You invest in Nigerian diamond transfers and waste police resources to bail yourself out. You vote for the Presidential candidate you want to have a beer with. You think just because you think something everyone else needs to hear it even though it's completely idiotic. 

You eat a McSkillet burrito for breakfast, a Big Mac for lunch, and a Hot n' Ready for dinner and wonder how in the world you got diabetes. You sign up for credit cards to get a free t-shirt. You make snap decisions based on the smallest piece of evidence available. 

You make me so angry. So, very, very angry.

I'm having a bad day, and yet, no matter how bad I feel (crappy damn cold), no matter how bad things are going at the office (everything is going to hell in a handbasket), no matter that my 401K has lost $24,000 so far this year, at least I'm not you, "friend".

I honestly feel less intelligent after reading this guy's post.  It may have seriously done a considerable amount of damage to my cerebral cortex.

Is this how it feels to own a degree from The Ohio State University?

Asshole "friend" owes a lot of people for time that s/he just wasted there.

Sometimes when I run across stupidity of this magnitude I desperately want to go sell them something.  Cheap V1agra, fat-burning pills, whatever.

Hey "friend," I've got this Nigerian prince that is looking for bank accounts to stash his money in- why don't you post your Social Security # and bank account information in this post so I can help you out a little?  Trust me, it's the easiest $20,000 you'll ever make.

I don't know about you condescending assholes, but I'm voting for 'friend' in the upcoming Space Emperor election.  We need action-oriented decision making like his 4 point manifesto in these trying times. 

Friend: looking forward to your contributions on this blog as well as your potential role as Space Emperor. I believe the Space Palace is somewhere south of Vega, so you may want to start lining up transportation in the next few days.

 ZOLTAN HAS ZERO TOUCHDOWNS IN 2009.  DO WE NEED ANY MORE EVIDENCE OF HIS LACK OF LEADERSHIP?!?  VOTE 'FRIEND' FOR SPACE EMPEROR.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
