| 1 year 33 weeks ago | This is interesting given |
This is interesting given that "Varsity Maize" was our pre-Adidas Nike colorway, whereas now we have "Amarillo." Varsity Maize / Midnight Navy is my favorite colorway combo. The Game Royal hue pushes it a little too close to Cal for my liking, but still looks great. |

Yes! This is a very important clarification. So much so that it got me off my lurker perch. It will be especially important when we're talking about 5* 2030 MI QB Mighty Jack The Quarterback Harbaugh. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad |

I don't post anymore, but this makes two in the span of three days. Just can't get enough of these damn searchbits. |

I never post anymore. Can't remember the last time I did, and won't bother to look. But I've been a lurker forever, and this search--as with the last two--brings to the surface why I'll probably never leave. I didn't have an iPhone back in the haloscan days, so I was F5-ing those threads like a mofo all day long at work. It somehow kept me sane in an otherwise insane world (Jim Grobe Mafia, anyone?). Now, when I go to the front pocket to check the time, or my e-mail, or my Jim Harbaugh photo album (just to make sure nothing has been accidentally deleted), I'm reminded that I should be checking mgoblog first. And I do...and it is the perfect support group. Insane world and all. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad |
| 4 years 30 weeks ago | --Straight from DirecTV-- |
I rarely post anymore, but this thread falls right in to my wheelhouse and I figured I'd share what I just learned from DirectTV...
I live in Los Angeles and subscribe to DirecTV (including every imaginable sports package). My program guide shows the following for Saturday at 8:00pm Eastern / 5:00pm Pacific:
Ch. 7 (ABC) - "College Football" Ch. 396 (ABC East) - "Michigan @ Connecticut" Ch. 397 (ABC West) - "College Football"
I just spoke with a supervisor (after the customer service rep I spoke with kept telling me the game was on the 24th!), and he was definitive in telling me that the Michigan @ Connecticut game WILL BE TELEVISED on ABC 7 (DirecTV) in Los Angeles. He also said it would NOT be a part of the Gameplan package. I pressed him hard and asked the question about 10 different ways. I even told him that I doubted the information he was providing since the guide specifically lists Michigan on channel 396 (East Coast) and lists a generic "College Football" on channel 397 (West Coast). I asked, "Why wouldn't it just show up on both?" He did not waver, saying: "Despite what the guide may show right now, I am looking at the scheduled programming for your region [i.e. Los Angeles, CA] and you can be 100% certain that you will receive this game."
Ever the pessimist, I still have my doubts... but that was encouraging to hear. |

Yes, and the specific colorway is "Varsity Maize." Nike also uses "Goldenrod" for Iowa and "Del Sol" for the LA Lakers.
I too wish to see a return to the swoosh. I like Adidas, but only when it comes to soccer (you know, the 'other' football) gear and accessories. Nike apparel just looked better, IMO, when watching various M teams on the field of play. For better or worse, I will always associate the '97 football team with those Nike uniforms. |

| 5 years 22 weeks ago | It's all about Jim Buss. |
It's all about Jim Buss. Beto Duran said on local radio (in LA) this morning that Jerry Buss forced the Brown firing down the throat of Jim, who had a vested interest in keeping him on board (which, duh). Jim Buss took an over-my-dead-body approach to the thought of bringing Phil back--Chris Broussard conformed as much on SportsCenter this AM--and was apparently all-in on D'antoni throughout the weekend.
Beyond that, MY speculation is that Phil was the guy among Jerry Buss and Mitch Kupchak, but Jim forced the issue elsewhere. Going back a year, it was Jim who completely cleaned house with respect to the Phil Jackson coaching circle, including his decision to eschew Brian Shaw as Phil's successor.
Lastly, the reason Morris is getting a lot of run lately has only a little to do with Nash's absence. Nash being out means Morris is in a backup role, as opposed to getting DNPs as a third string. Steve Blake is awful, but his wonky abdomen (ultrasound scheduled for today) is the reason for D Mo's ascension. |

Thank you. Hopefully we're done and Dave Brandon doesn't create the future again by renaming it the "Chrysler 300 Center." |

I may be late to the party here, but when did Crisler Arena morph in to the Crisler "Center"? (or maybe it didn't?) I started seeing Bacari Alexander reference it as "Crisler Center" in some of his recent tweets and sort of cringed, but perhaps I just missed the boat. Can someone please clear this up for me? |

Interesting. I'm watching the WVU/South Florida game and was reminded of the rumor that CRAIG JAMES KILLED FIVE HOOKERS WHILE AT SMU. |
