| 10 hours 28 min ago | I swear that Wilton Speight is at least 23 years old |
Not only in looks, but he's more articulate than most people my age. Hell, of any age. He certainly has quicker feet than John Navarre. |
| 10 hours 36 min ago | I don't want to replace ND with just one opponent |
I'd much, much rather replace them with home-and-homes with several of these: Georgia LSU Texas Florida USC Oklahoma Tennessee The only teams of the above that we've played in the regular season are Georgia and USC, and the last time for those was in '65 and '58, respectively. Stone age, in other words. I don't have much interest in playing the PAC-12 since it's been such a frequent source of opponents in the regular season or in the Rose Bowl. I suppose Arizona with RR would be "interesting" but I can't see that happening as long as DB is around. |
| 12 hours 17 min ago | "there may be some questions about why he transferred..." |
You have a great career in politics ahead of you, since you have obvious ability to blow thin air up into a mysterious potential scandal. |
| 14 hours 18 min ago | "Star Wars franchise far better" |
Yep, that Jar Jar Binks was awesome. |
| 18 hours 21 min ago | Michigan football recruiting in 2053 will be much easier |
"Coach Hart, here is the list of the spots we need to fill for Team 174." "Hmmmm... a Wheatley, a Harmon, two Longs, a Lewan, one Howard, two Woodsons, one Robinson, three Peppers, two Hands, one Kovacs, one Branch, one Paris, one Carter, one Morris, one Griese, and two Woodleys... looks good, but let's add a Molk. Fire up the printers!" |
| 1 day 6 hours ago | And of course the (MLive) commenters are complete dolts. |
A minute spent on MLive is a minute you spend destroying brain cells. |
| 1 day 6 hours ago | Donated, have not received my Woodson t-shirt yet |
Not thinking about it either. They've got a lot of stuff to process and mail. |
| 1 day 9 hours ago | "While other coaches are screaming in skulls..." |
So finally we know the term for what Brian Kelly does. |
| 1 day 12 hours ago | I say bring back the old College All-Star-NFL game |
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_College_All-Star_Game Or better yet, have each year's college national champion play the Detroit Lions in August at Ford Field. That would bring Alabama and Nicky into town. They'd probably get creamed by the Lions, but with that franchise you never can be too sure. |
| 1 day 15 hours ago | Brandon needs to make bagels, lox, and gefilte fish available |
at the stadium concession stands. |
| 1 day 15 hours ago | I think this might be my first double-post at MGoBlog |
I'm no longer a virgin. |
| 1 day 16 hours ago | Elijah Zabludoff? |
He will have a spot waiting for him on the 2015 All-Name Team. |
| 1 day 16 hours ago | Elijah Zabludoff? |
He will have a spot waiting for him on the 2015 All-Name Team. |
| 1 day 17 hours ago | Assuming he is Jewish, Rosen wouldn't be the first Jewish UM QB |
nor would he be the second. |
| 1 day 18 hours ago | Ho ho ho ha ha ha ha |
that's hilarious. You go to Slauson? |
| 1 day 18 hours ago | This is all about being close to his vineyards |
Hard to check on his grapes while in Detroit or Denver |
| 1 day 19 hours ago | Commencement speeches are sadistically designed |
to inflict one final jolt of pain on graduating students and their parents. With very rare exception, they're either excruciatingly dull, vapid, shallow, stupid, preeningly moralistic, or boring. The commencement speaker for my graduation from UM's architecture school in 1978 was Walter Mondale. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz |
| 2 days 14 hours ago | the stuff those guys say about Oaxacos |
What's "Oaxacos?" I gather it's not some sort of taco. |
| 2 days 14 hours ago | someone trashing the state of Michigan because of Detroit... |
... which goes on everywhere in the country, and very frequently here on MGoBlog. If I wrote indignant replies to every mean-spirited joke about Detroit or southeastern Michigan that I see on the internet, I'd be busy 24/7/365. There are places in Michigan and New Jersey which are beautiful, and areas that are horrid dumps. Who cares? |
| 2 days 22 hours ago | Good luck with your situation |
and ignore the anonymous juvenile douchebag(s) who rate helpful suggestions as flamebait. |
| 3 days 8 hours ago | Sort of reminds me of the state of Illinois |
They've produced plenty of football talent over the last four decades—how in the hell have they managed to never become a true football power, even in the Big Ten? |
| 3 days 8 hours ago | Maybe it just means that Molk was really that important |
Yes, it really means that a four-year starter on the OL who called out blocking assignments is that important. |
| 3 days 8 hours ago | "Don may be a curmudgeon tomorrow (likely)." |
Likely my ass. It's a guarantee. |
| 3 days 9 hours ago | Why in the world would anyone pretend to be a Buckeye? |
Free drinks and easy nooky. |
| 3 days 10 hours ago | What the hell... I'm not even an OSU fan |
and I knew immediately there was no OSU All-American TE with that name. He should have tried it with "Bob Smith." |
| 3 days 10 hours ago | Nothing wrong with getting an autograph as a gift for someone |
Got pretty much zero interest myself in autographs by sports figures, but seems to me that getting an autograph for your son or a good friend is pretty harmless. It's the guys shoving a bucketfull of balls at some athlete just so they can turn right around and sell them who are the douchebags. If I could, I'd carve out a special legal exemption for athletes so they could beat the living shit out of the assholes harassing them for autographed stuff. Shane could sign one of his turds, some guy would eagerly put it up on Ebay, and some other loser would shell out good money for it. |
| 3 days 13 hours ago | Plenty of Wolverines on the Lions? |
From 1950 through 2013—63 years—the Lions have drafted a total of 15 Wolverines. Of those fifteen, I counted three —Terry Barr, Rich Strenger, and Jeff Backus—were drafted in the third round or higher; the vast majority were late-round picks who had no real impact with the Lions. Some were throwaway/let's take a gamble kind of pick, like drafting Michigan great QB Dennis Franklin as a WR. |
| 3 days 16 hours ago | Your title made me think he was visiting right now |
A more accurately informative title would be "5-Star DT Andrew Brown May Visit UM." |
| 4 days 5 hours ago | Smith was a source of much frustration for us fans in the 70s |
The frustration was over how seldom he was thrown to, even though everybody in the damn stadium could tell he was a great receiving talent. He had 73 catches for 1687 in four seasons, while Carter had 161 for over 3000 yards. It was just his "misfortune" to have played during a time when the option offense was in place, and the emphasis was heavily on the running game. If he'd been on the team after Michigan had transitioned to a more balanced attack several years later, he would have been thrown to much more frequently. You must have been speaking with either Elzinga or Leach. |
