I do agree that Borges cost

I do agree that Borges cost us a game that was otherwise falling into our laps. If Denard can't throw, he can't play QB. Ohio had no reason to respect the pass when Shoelace was out there. Hoke needs to get more involved with the offense, and shouldn't be affraid to over-rule the OC for some play call and personel decisions.

Will there be

Will there be English-speaking commentators or subtitles?

Those things don't actually

Those things don't actually help you fall asleep, FYI. Studies show they actually contribute to a worse nights sleep. Science.

I wonder what the maximum

I wonder what the maximum number of wins Michigan could get across all its D1 sports is? Whatever the number, I hope we go thatmany-0.

On that note, I wonder what the D1 record is or most varsity wins in a season by a school.

Toussaint has a son? This is news to me.

Where are the Mods?! Chaos and anarchy are triumphing, and we have no one to fight back! 

Ticket Pick-up?

I ordered my tickets to be picked up at the Ticket Office, but I have not yet received an email saying I can pick them up. If people are getting theirs in the mail, do you suspect this means I can pick them up now?

I have been waiting for a

I have been waiting for a Michigan-Harvard match up. If we're going to schedule weaker teams, I think they should at least be from well branded schools. Even though it would likely be a blow out, we could get good coverage with all the talk of old-timey football. The only down side would be the obvious use of throw-back uniforms.

This is pretty interesting,

This is pretty interesting, but I would like to see a more detailed article. I've always used arguments like these when people ask me why I care so much about UM Football. The football teams' success makes people think more positively about the university, and I argue actually increases the value of my degree(s). 

This woman has been around

This woman has been around for seven (7!) U of M national championships. And she is only 6 years older than the forward pass.

Maybe she means a different

Maybe she means a different civil war. There's been plenty in the last 100 years. Maybe she got them mixed up, I mean, she is old.

There was an article in

There was an article in Forbes last week where several University presidents and prominent CEOs shared there views on the situation. Everyone single one said that the board errored in their actions and Sullivan should not have left. I think U of M trained her right. A very unfortunate situation for Sullivan, but she will do well somewhere else (or come back to U of M in a few years).

You don't need HBO to watch

You don't need HBO to watch the show, you just need to know someone who does have HBO. If they have comcast, then they are able to make up to 10 email accounts with their account. Have them make you an email account, and then you can use that account to sign into hbogo.com and watch every episode of every hbo show (ever). It's how I've watched the entire series (and all of Entourage).

Also, just read the books. They are better than the show, but with less nudity (so maybe a little less entertaining). Plus, they will keep you busy for a long time, as they are all quite long.

 

I don't know about other

I don't know about other sports, but they did something kind of like this in Women's Soccer a few years back. There was a table that you could swipe your card at, and if you attended enough matches you got stuff. I wound up with a free hat! (not the baby-killer). It was a decent program, except they published everyones name on the website, and you could see the full name of who was at the matches and how many matches they had been to. I think it only ran for 1 year.

I was thinking the same, and

I was thinking the same, and I had a hillarious flamebait comment ready to go about Devin Gardner's Redshirt status. It's sad that I expect all off-season topics to be terrible.

How much do you think Stan

How much do you think Stan Lee is paying Dave Brandon? Also, ammend in the contract, Stan Lee gets to make a cameo apperance during the 4th quarter as a place-holder from Pahokee.

They think not being eligible

They think not being eligible for the NCAA tounrey will help recruiting? Who would we be competitive with? Ourselves?

But where does it state that this will leave us out of those considerations? It seems obvious, but maybe it is allowed. 

My number one complaint

My number one complaint against Brandon (on a list of maybe 1 or 2 things), had been he just loves money too much. Not to say that he is greedy, but his #1 objective has been to make money for the athletic department. In a department where the final product is kids who don't get paid, it would be nice to see more given back. I don't care how nice the 2050 Big House renovations are if I can't afford tickets to go see it.

Whoa whoa whoa. So is the commisoner the one flipping the coin? If so, who gets to call heads/tails? I vote heads. What kind of coin is it? It should be a JFK silver dollar. Do we use a three sided coin for three way ties? Does that exist? These rules are definatly not all encompassing. Someone email the comish'

I dunno. Dave Brandon does

I dunno. Dave Brandon does love money. I'm betting he has thought of some way to convince the NHL to push it back if we are playing on that day.

It's not the ACC's fault the Blue Man Group (not the self-help group) happened to have their convention in the same stadium at the same time as the championchip game.

I hope someone interviews Hagerup about that play and shows him that .gif. Given the win, I think his responce will be comical.
