I'd like to see that embedded with the Muppets for special occasions.

21 weeks 6 days ago Those band kids sure know how to text

Crusty!?!  Take a look online if haven't actually been to the aquarium.  It's a truly unique space still in very good condition.  This $50,000, along with another grant they just won for fixing up the roof, would go a long way towards reopening of the tanks.  If anything, my kids need something to do on rainy days.  Think of the children!

As for it's worthiness, yes, those band kids sure know how to text.  I've been following this for weeks now (and voting as much as I can), and the aquarium had been as high as 11, but the other groups are persistant, and we have fallen quite a bit.

MGoCommunity is a powerful presence on the web, and with great power comes great responsibilty.  Let's do the responsible thing and beat those band kids!  Please vote... often.

22 weeks 15 hours ago History Lesson

What do you mean "when"?  Prior to Sparty's little win streak here, UM had there own.  Except our streak was for six (6!) straight wins.  Our only gift was Mike Hart's "Little Brother" comment in the wake of the 2007 game... a gift that keeps on giving.

34 weeks 1 day ago Key Play

Something happened along the way with the key play.  I remember being in college (94-98), and the keys only came out on offensive 3rd downs.  Now, maybe people still pulled the keys out on defensive 3rd downs, but I never heard em because we were all screaming in the student section.  In fact, I never knew people pulled the keys out on defense until years later.  Dumb as hell to do it on defense.  Maybe it used to work in the 40's or something.

They key play on offense is a whole other thing.  I also remember at least one third down, (It was a big one... Brian Griese to Woodson kind of big one) where the whole student section had their keys out, but everybody was silent.  All you could hear were thousands of keys rattling away.  It was like being in a quiet casino.  Pretty fantastic actually.

Am I mis-remembering here, or does anybody else share this memory?

34 weeks 1 day ago the Band

Maybe this has already been noted in the comments, but I'd like to add that, while I don't want the band to be miked, they kind of have to be because they're not really much of a marching band when it comes down to it. (at least not in the get the kids off their seats kind of way that Neil Diamond seems to have mastered)

I don't know.  The Victors is perfect.  Let's Go Blue is great.  And the Blues Brothers is fine I guess, but remember that it first came around because it was a really popular, fun song at the time, and the band had a great number for it. (remember when they used to pile up at the final chorus?  I haven't seen them do that in a while)  Can you imagine them playing the 2011 version of that song today?  Not sure what it would be, but I think the Penn State band playing Seven Nation Army comes close.  They need some new material to add to their repetoire if they're going to supplant the piped in crap.

35 weeks 1 day ago Was RR "All In" for Michigan?

One the earliest criticisms of the hire was that RR was only using the Michigan job as a stepping stone to greater things. Was he? Did Bacon ever get the sense that RR did not want to coach at Michigan long term? If so, was that desire predetermined or did it come slowly, after he realized UM was not the right "fit" for him?

39 weeks 4 hours ago Both were incredible

Growing up, I assumed that over-the-top blocked field goals were the norm because of them.  Tripp was a great kick returner, too.

My favorite player from childhood.

1 year 17 weeks ago Elvis to Desmond!

Was that 4th quarter TD the first touchdown pass between these two as Wolverines?

1 year 19 weeks ago slight shift

The slight shift from "know this" to "feel this" made me chuckle.  Nobody knows nuttin.

1 year 19 weeks ago If Hoke = Missouri...

At this point, I don't see Brandon as I did Martin during the coaching search of '07. (caught with his pants down while sailing the Carribean). No Brandon is to coaching search '11 as Delany is to Big Ten expansion '10.



Note the similarities:



Clearly defined timeline that the media is too impatient to see through. (End of season review = 18 month review)



Obvious fit who is reluctant to sign on due to pie in the sky dreams of greatness. (Harbaugh = ND)



Amazing, unlikely option who is never gonna sign on. (Mullen = Texas)



Eager beaver who obviously wants the job but who ain't gonna get it - hopefully. (Hoke = Missouri)



And one very successful, single-minded leader who is in complete control, but who everybody thinks is screwing the pooch. (Brandon = Delany)



My only question is: who = Nebraska?
