Your MGoAvatar is the new HC for The Game
I'm tired of being sad, so I figured why not have a little fun leading up to The Game.
Your MGoAvatar is now the new head coach at Michigan. Congratulations!
-How would you prepare/motivate your players?
-Pregame rituals before The Game?
-How would you deal with the media?
Have FUN (seriously, no negative crap) and go crazy.

"what me worried"............................well yeah

Mine is actual film from the locker room, so nothing will change.
November 25th, 2013 at 5:28 PM ^
Uh, obviously, subs for pre-game meal, then
GO CRAZY!!!
P.S. to House: I am wounded. Severely.

Prepare to meet your horrible doom!

I don't know what he'd say, but I like his track record: After a freshman year loss, he led M to a cumulative score of 50-9 (and three wins, of course) vs. OSU.

I would tell the players "Hey don't freak out, I have the mother of inventions to beat this team. Wowie zowie you guys have trouble every day but not today. A valley girl in Montana will be a dancin' fool if you win. So let's make the State that is Ohio dumb all over. Oh, and don't eat yellow snow in France."

Avast me maties! I would teach our lads to storm the enemy's ship, run those Buckeyes threw with swords, steal their treasure and sail to Tortoga for a night of wenches and bar fights!
Actually, its just a flag so it would probably just flop around in the wind.

Growl and drool for 3 quarters before being tackled for immense losses all the way back to Canada where I spend the offseason alone gnawing on the frozen bones of Caribou carcasses.

Get me the ball.

1. I am the law!
2. Throw down your weapons.
3. You are under arrest!

Well ya know?
I think I'll just order up a few blitzes.

Bluto: Hey! What's all this negativity stuff? Why are you all still bitching around here?
MGoBlog: Let it go. Season's over, man. OSU is gonna drop the big one.
Me: What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when Tacopants missed that block against App. State? Hell no! (...) And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...
...the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!
[runs out of the room alone, comes back]
Bluto: What the fuck happened to the Michigan I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? This could be the greatest game of our lives, but you're gonna let it be the worst. "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Bluto, we might get embarassed." Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Miller, he's a dead man! Shazier, dead! Urban Meyer...

Well, seeing how my avatar is extinct, I'll just leave you with a selection of quotes from 'Jurassic Park'. Strangely, it would not have surprised me to find any of these lines strewn across the inter-webs during an outbreak of MGoUniverse's collective schadenfreude...
On our Offense to date:
-"We spared no expense."
-"Don't you see the danger, [Al], inherent in what you're doing here?"
-"That is one big pile of shit."
-"Gee, the lack of humility before nature that's being displayed here, uh... staggers me."
-"Look at how much blood!"
-"Yeah, yeah, but your [coaches] were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should."
-"You never had control, that's the illusion! I was overwhelmed by the power of this place. But I made a mistake, too, I didn't have enough respect for that power and it's out now. The only thing that matters now are the people we love."
On 'The Game':
-"Anybody hear that? It's a, um... It's an impact tremor, that's what it is... I'm fairly alarmed here."
-"Must go faster."
-"I'm simply saying that life, uh... finds a way."
-"Hold on to your butts!"
Unlike the dinosaurs, this season does not have to end in total annihilation. There's always a chance to spoil the party, boys!

-- Don't give Dave Brandon any ideas:
"We are gonna make a fortune with this place."
"We can charge whatever we want - $10,000 a day, $20,000 a day - and people will pay it."
"Sure, we'll have a, a Coupon Day, or something like that."
"Don't get cheap on me, Dodgson."
-- Not to pile on the offense, but, to pile on the offense:
"Our lives are in your hands and you have Butterfingers?"
"We can make it if we run." "No. We can't."
"That doesn't look very scary. More like a six-foot turkey."
"No wonder you're extinct. I'm gonna run you over when I come back down."

I don't know too much about football guys, but I'll try my best. Maybe the Mayor will have some advice for me.

To motivate my players, I would just tell them not to dwell on the pain as I can bring them their next dose of oxycodone only 3 hours from now. If I remember. And I'm not busy.
My pre-game ritual would be to promise to go get ice chips for the team. I'd leave. I'd never return.
The media would get the old adhesive tape and catheter treatment. (Don't ask.)
* Play calls would be limited to "bed goes up" and "bed goes down".
