Beating Chitown is always, always a good thing.

GOOOOOALLL CLEARY!!!

Great, time to defend a PP.

Fantastic hockey so far this period. Lots of close shots and offensive pressure.

Hearing Denard say "Live Long and Prosper" for the first time absolutely made my day!

I wonder how much alcohol I would need before attending an outdoor game in January. A decent amount and a scarf, thick coat/hat/gloves and I'm good to go!

When one goose is shot down two other geese follow it to earth to nurse it to health.

High School Dean Guy would like to let you know that leaders are also followers.

What a fantastic treasure trove! Thank you Heiko!!

For a moment I thought it was an offer to skydive with Fred Jackson. Darn. RE and MH would be awesome to jump with too.

I never stopped believing for a second! 

Fine. Sometimes the bounces and randomness of the game don't go the way they should.

It's OK, Wisky is in the armpit position.

I'll believe it when they take the field against ND and State looking completely normal with no additional WOW factor. From the wording in the article I'm guessing we'll see an alternate at the bowl game. I hope it's a HOME alternate and not an AWAY alternate IN A YEAR WHERE WE WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE A HOME UNIFORM AT OUR BOWL.

to the phrase "Warrior Pride."

Right?

Clutch icing!

Congratulations to the Mastodons of IPFW. I come home from work and we have a new DL commit and a great new recording of The Rite Of Spring - for saxophones and percussion - available for FREE online!

And for the drinking part of the drinking thread: Corona 24oz cans. Hecho en Mexico.

Happy happy happy happy!

That has to be Photoshop. No way a lineman would be wearing 22!

I am the guy hitting his stick against the glass. For all eternity.

Excellent.

Go Jags.

No wonder I almost got hit by a minivan changing lanes without signaling or checking blind spots earlier today in broad daylight.

No work tomorrow until 3:30 PM. Yes!

Good point.

Good amount of Denard in the highlights, no Henne though. Putting the two-tone matte Jaguars logo on one side of the helmet only makes them workable. Barely. A welcome distraction from the symmetrical helmets and new-HC-Mulligan year on tap in Cleveland. Hibernation city on the Erie.

Denard looks polished in his interview. I'm sure he has plans for the future with the Lions down the road.

Why is this not up to 5 yet!?

Feel free to be bearish about Michigan's program efficiency. The returns on the 2010 coaching change investment appear to be respectable thus far for the entire program, holistically. Michigan does not yet possess enough continuity with the current coaches for a homerish 12-0 but I see 10 wins as a reasonable expectation for the upcoming season if CG steps up in place of JR and DG flies high. Say the homefield seal breaks and we lose to ND and Ohio. We also play at a decimated Michigan State; and face Nebraska at home. I saved my ticket from the 2011 game: Section 21, Row 11, Seat 21.

In short: I believe Michigan is most likely to lose to ND and/or Ohio next year but I see all games on the schedule as essentially winnable based on the incomplete information available to fans.

When downvotes come back they need to hurt the voter -1 also.

YES!!!! DETROIT WINS!!!!

There are enough small schools with override requests on retainer to effectively stymie any reform. It is an exploding parliament.

Not until the bottom drops out of the cable TV business model or the O'Bannon lawsuit hits home.

It's the sugary underbelly to the more heated basketball and football rivalries. Throw in the BJs and you have a concoction of local athletic misery as vulnerable as any in Ohio.

I'm watching it now but who knows when it might go down again?

can't force us to change the notes of our beloved music even if the divisional name does not match the lyrics for "The Victors".

Brace yourself for the ups and downs of long-distance Jaguars fandom, heart. I'll put you on the shelf between Cleveland Browns fandom and absinthe.

Run away Timmy, while you still can. Save yourself!

Agreed. Simple is best for an epochal naming change like adding a playoff to CFB.

Upvotes account for about 40% of my total points total. My growth rate has slowed considerably since that module has been removed though I did pass TomVH not too long ago!

Climate Change.

That's kind of cool.

HAHAHAHA nice helmets!

I'm happy that the divisional alignments don't completely screw Michigan and make Ohio's life as easy as possible, but I'm upset that we still have fucking Rutgers and Maryland in the conference.

Au revoir, Legends and Leaders.

Competitive in the B10 tournament and capable of a tourney run with proper rest.

I will not be tempted.

#4 is a worthy tip. From now on, my fandom will take more of an irrational form.

LOVE!

Iowa State 9, Iowa 6

The angled black and yellow border has just enough Charlie Brown to make it work. Brilliant!

We need videogame-caliber pitching!

Much better.

hey hey hey, goodbye

The calculus of everyday life. Traffic patterns, cooking times, athletics, and yes, Merlin-chasers.

There is an escape from Alabama!

THANK GOODNESS!

Come watch him today in Britton Recital Hall on North Campus with the other members of the flute studio at 5PM today!

Kafkaesque. My flask needs more hemlock.

I love it. Can we make the font smaller?

I will do this for the next November telecast featuring that coach.

You jersey chaser! A taste of vicarious success left you craving more?

North Dakota? Denver? Boston U? Unusual matchups to say the least.

What a goofball.

David Cone. Get that pro-style magic cooking fast.

My personal preference is still early 90s SimEarth. I mean, look at these graphics!

I will be up playing video games. No work for 3 days.

Best tourney run in the B14 by far. National player of the year. Thirst for next year. Positive exposure. Fab 5 reunion.

Easy there jackhammer! One click!

Thanks for stopping by!

It would seem the stage has been set!

The best stargazing I ever did was in northern Michigan on Little Traverse Bay near Petoskey in the summer. Cloudless nights and inner peace.

Rehab Dad would never do something like that. He must have fallen off the bandwagon again.

If I were in his place I would cheer for the Shockers of THE Wichita State University.

Still happy about that choice I made all those years ago.

So is Ohio, except it's older and more spread-out.

Oh well, I'll catch it on BTN.

If the NCAA brand becomes toxic, sure. Form a new organization with limited recruiting enforcement powers and keep making money.

There's always the TP-style bootleg-and-sideline-scamper runs, relatively safe.

Can we have more steals on defense please? It was a cornucopia of extra possessions! The raw talent these boys have is inspiring, if only they could find this kind of inspired individual and team play going forward in the tournament. The defensive play was lackadasical and/or nonexistent at times near the end of the regular season, which is now wholly forgiven and set aside. Final Four in 2013! Good times for us all!

Still sinking in over here.

Every single steal on D.

79-59 Michigan is your final from North Texas.

Backboard 3 for Them...grrrrr...

76-54 1:48 remaining

If this D shows up for the Final Four we'll be in great shape.

Robinson!!

That was fast!

Burke is resting, double 2s for the Union!

Another behind the back pass, this time McGary to Burke! It came up short but still sweet!

That guy...

Roll damn Tide

Stauskas has his second 3!

Got it.

Burke with first-half points this game!

Nice music, VW commercial~

Tranquil.
