Where's the after party for michigan fans in iowa?

I love wheat beers. Right…

I love wheat beers. Right now I'm drinking my favorite, Boulevard, a Kansas city beer. If you have the means, I highly recommend you pick some up. Go Blue! Order restored to the universe.

I went with my son. I've…

I went with my son. I've been there quite a few times as a kid back in the 80s and 90s. I was there in 2012 also. I must say, there has been a definite change in the attitude of the fanbase, especially those in the under 50 crowd. It's easy to be classy when you are winning championships. There were multiple grown men acting like complete psychos where I was. Every little thing became a reason to scream, and many times they were unaware of the rules regarding replay, timeouts, the last penalty after the play on 4th down, many fans didn't understand why it was Michigan's ball. Every older fan was very nice to us, only one fan ever said anything rude to me. I am envious of how loud they get, and not just on 3rd down, but almost every play. The announcer was too much a part of the game for me, loud music every play gets old, you never heard the band. The stadium is cool once you get to your seat, but moving around is a complete cluster of narrow paths and ramps of concrete and steel. Props on the trough urinals which are a memorial stadium institution, but that stadium is not designed for 90,000 people to walk around in

 

The guaranteed money that…

The guaranteed money that they negotiate is the part of a guaranteed contract. Having guaranteed contracts doesn't increase their market value, they're still gonna make the same amount per year.

I logged in just to say thanks for this. Absolutely amazing and great detail. Hall of fame worthy.

I don't care about a rose bowl that we backed into and used to be for conference champs, or playing Florida again, or any bowl for that matter if it means half the starters sitting out

Michigan gets called for "attempting to deceive the defense"

Dont we have to win something

Dont we have to win something before we're considered a national power?

I've been to kinnick a bunch

I've been to kinnick a bunch and Im going again. I would strongly disagree with you about their fans though.  Worst I've run into. I would stay away from the ped mall area. If you have michigan gear on, at some point a group of drunk asses will try and fight you. I've run into that the last two road games.

 

Tired of playing southern

Tired of playing southern teams in southern bowl games and then getting shit from the media when we dont win.

It's taken longer than we've hoped now for a decade.

I've always hated our road unis. these are even worse, now we're penn state

grown adults should be

grown adults should be allowed to drink beer at a football game. It would raise revenue and keep fans in their seats at halftime. those who are irresponsible with alcohol will be drunk no matter what.

I don't ever want to see a

I don't ever want to see a Michigan/osu rematch. It would take away the importance of the game which has made and broken the season of both teams so offen in the past.

Pipkins is a grown man. He

Pipkins is a grown man. He was looked after by a doctor. If a doctor cleared him to play and pipkins feels he can play, then he should play. Harbaugh isn't a doctor and doesn't know how he feels. If Saban did this all you guys would be having a fit. Everyone here has a stiffy (including me) cuz harbaugh is now the coach so you're afraid to say anything negative about the guy. He wants to play for Michigan, let him fucking play for Michigan.

Hall of Fame

I dont respond to many posts, but just had to say this was the funniest thing I've seen on the blog.

michigan already has a

michigan already has a coaching search agency. Its called the AD.

most of our elected leaders

most of our elected leaders in congress also have these degrees...how's that working out? Approval ratings consistantly in the 20% range.

Very proud of this team and

Very proud of this team and coach. This program has come a long way.  GO BLUE! HAIL TO THE VICTORS!

Im drinking my favorite brew, Boulevard wheat. It's a kansas city beer. best wheat beer out there imo. Congrats to the team. Big 10 champs. I love not sharing titles. GO BLUE! HAIL!

If Cuba is such a great place, then why do people risk their lives crossing open water to get here?

Worst: the old Memorial

Worst: the old Memorial Stadium in Cleveland

their non-conference sos is

their non-conference sos is one of the worst in the nation. Big ten team or not, don't ever feel sorry for iowa.

Very proud of the team. Nice

Very proud of the team. Nice to get a big win. Played hard. I hope Tim keeps his head up, he looked very upset especially toward the end of the game. The guys showed a lot of heart after a disappointing couple of weeks. Go Blue!

yeah i know the rules. ive

yeah i know the rules. ive been on this site almost every day for 2 years now. as long as things don't get nasty then the debate should be allowed. otherwise there is no point in having a board.

I so sick of this site

I so sick of this site censoring every little thing worth talking about. Isn't there a way to delete the nasty posts, and let the interesting ones go. If you must lock a topic, why cant you at least leave a majority of the posts while not allowing any more replies so people can follow some of the debate.  We cant be critical of the coaching staff, can't ever be critical of any recruit no matter how selfish they act or what they say, or if they take pics of stacks of cash or pose with bongs. You might as well just write what we should all think and forget the board, because its getting beyond ridiculous. 

We were pre-season top ten

We were pre-season top ten last year and how did that turn out. I want to see michigan win some big games for once before I start worrying about polls.

how would you guys compare

how would you guys compare our homecourt advantage vs other arenas?

How about posts that begin

How about posts that begin with an apology. "Sorry Im not an expert," or " Sorry if this has been posted already," or "Sorry this is from my iphone," or "Sorry im late to the discussion, I just now was able to remove the pickle." You know, stuff like that. 

As an ISU grad i can say

As an ISU grad i can say that's not all true. Our basketball program doesnt suck, football program has grown a lot in the past decade, our women's sports are good, and iowa state has great vet, engineering, business, computer, and ag programs. Not a lot of eyeballs agreed, but there's still a lot ISU could offer the big ten. Our fan base bought all or just about all the allotted tickets to a bad bowl game against an opponent they already beat.

If you're in the public eye

If you're in the public eye and open a twitter account you're going to run into the occasional asshole.

The ball boy is 17. He knows

The ball boy is 17. He knows better. He's stalling the game. I just wish he was actually kicked that hard to cause him to roll around like that. 

I tired of this subject just

I tired of this subject just like im tired of people pretending to care about the health of people they don't know. Let people be informed and then let them live with the consequences of their own decisions good or bad. Anything less is just another excuss to tell people how to live their lives because you think you know better and you know what's good for them.

I dont get this at all. Can

I dont get this at all. Can we at least get him a few more looks on offense before we banish him to the CB depth chart? Enough with the mgokissup line of..."well I trust the coaches." They're human, they make mistakes, and not above criticism...see Al Borges. 

A team from the north playing

A team from the north playing a team from the south in their backyard, no thanks. The structure is old. I'd be more interested in playing in boise against a different conference than being a part of another big ten embarrassment with all eyes on the s.e.c vs big ten scoreboard, especially this year.

I dont get how whining and

I dont get how whining and being critical about the coaches gets you banned, but calling people asshats is somehow okay? If someone is offbase on their opinion, the board will let them know.

I went to both games the last

I went to both games the last two years. Many more neb. fans in ann arbor than michigan fans in lincoln. I had the unfortunate pleasue of sitting next to a neb. fan who was also a spartan grad. He wasn't too horrible but you knew from sitting next to him that something just wasnt right. I think the tailgating is about the worst along with iowa city. Fans overall were nice. I did find it funny though I ran into the same husker fan outside the stadium twice who kept swearing and telling me to take off my michigan jersey. I asked a lot of neb fans last year ( including my father) how they were treated in Ann Arbor, and all of them said michigan fans treated them fine and they liked being in ann arbor. good all around fan experience i think for both fan bases. 

Cheers from Iowa! Enjoying a

Cheers from Iowa! Enjoying a wheat beer from KC called Boulevard. GO BLUE! WELCOME HOME MR. PAUL BUNYAN!!!!

I hope he arrives before

I hope he arrives before kickoff. Go Blue! Beat state!

There isn't a room left in

There isn't a room left in lincoln under 260$ before taxes. I was in ann arbor for last years game and plan on enjoying this game just as much. Anyone from Michigan making the journey to lincoln?

Im glad it's being talked

Im glad it's being talked about. I was surprised when I first heard it. I hope it goes away. If we're supposed to be about class, then the chant must go. Honestly when I first heard it, I thougt it sounded like something sparty fans would do.

It's better than the

It's better than the bumblebee outfit, but yes im sick of all the jerseys. I dont want to be oregon.

Of course he's considering

Of course he's considering going to usc, every kid in the nation seems to be going to usc. Hell, my three year old son tore off his michigan jersey, slammed it on the floor, and told me he's transferring to usc cuz Lane doesn't make his kids drink milk every day.

I'll go ahead and be the jerk

I'll go ahead and be the jerk to bring some perspective...Isn't this whole thing extremely lame? Pretending to be someone you're not on the internet? Hurry! There has to be a medal, trophy, or some certificate we can give for such trickery.  If we continue to let this go on in the future, people may start lying about the size of their dick, or worse, making up fake Hello posts. God that one cracks me up every time.

 I didn't realize what a hero

 I didn't realize what a hero Mr. King was. After reading all these posts maybe we should build him a statue or put his face on Mt. Rushmore.
