Cedar Point is fun, but other than that I have no use for the state (which implies no use for OSU). |

Congrats and best of health for the new youngsters. |

The Lions must be trying to experience a bowl game vicariously through college teams. |

No, but indeed he was a very talented receiver at UM. One of my early UM football memories was Smith catching a TD pass from running back Gordon Bell in the 1975 Michigan-Ohio State game. |

Shit, man. It goes without saying our winged helmet is the greatest ever created, not just the Big Ten but in all of football. |

Red wine from a box. The cheap stuff. Now, I can afford better but I'm just not discriminating. My oldest son, a recent WMU grad, is moving back in for the summer (he's got a teaching job in the Fall), is a beer connoisseur but has no $ to his name. I'll treat him to whatever he wants when he gets back on Sunday. |

Not too many youngsters would know that reference. Great movie when I was in high school. |

You know the rule. Pictures or it didn't happen. |

I'm a bachelor for two weeks. My wife's parents are celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary so to commemorate they are treating my wife and her sister to a European river cruise. I'm lounging in bed but was awakened by a message from my wife so wished her a Happy Mother's Day. I will probably grill something at home with my youngest son today. |

This is Sparty's design. Like Harris, Marshall does not fit MSU's national recruiting strategy. They have their sights set much higher than simply the state of Michigan. |

Yes!!! When I was a student at UM, the closest whirlyball was in Toledo. We'd make the journey there to play and them eat at Tony Packo's. Fantastic game, er sport. |
| 1 week 5 days ago | I just can't wait for |
I just can't wait for football. With the Wings hanging on by a thread, and lukewarm interest in baseball (never recovered from the 1994 strike), it's like a dead zone. |

That's fantastic. |

A free college education to punt footballs, and he can't stay away from pot. What a shame. |

Looks like a walking testicle. |

September 28th is the weekend of my 25th wedding anniversary. I suppose I should do something to commemorate. |
| 2 weeks 4 days ago | I liked Keith Jackson, but |
I liked Keith Jackson, but Bob Ufer was the gold (maize?) standard for me. Back then only a few games per year were televised so radio was the lifeline to Michigan football. Nobody did it better than Ufer. |

Actually, the greatest university in the Universe. |

Fantastic that Denard is walking in the graduation ceremony. A great accomplishment and something he will always remember. |
| 2 weeks 5 days ago | Quite a few. First game was |
Quite a few. First game was UM-Missouri in 1975. Had season tickets in high school 1980-82 when my brother was a student, and went to games 1983-1988 when I was a student at UM. Several since then, but my most memorable was going with my son and mother to the 1997 UM-Iowa game, the only game my mother attended. |

"Fuckin Shit" - his on-air handle. Love it! |

Cycling was the closest I came to being a college athlete, nearly 30 years ago. I have my faded maize and blue jersey from the UM club tucked away somewhere. I can assure you there was no doping, unless you consider Molson/Labatts contraband. |

Damn, why did you have to state that? I've got a date with Miss Michigan tonight and now I'm getting nervous. |

Hondas are very reliable. Even criminals would know that. |

Basketball. I think UM still has the nucleus to be a top-team. Not as sure about football. We've got lots of talent with young kids, but many are not tested yet. |

Firstly, Ohio was not champion of anything. Second, who would want a ring with a picture of weed on the side? |

I don't care at all about jersey numbers. Let's just win football games and these kids will become legends in their own right. |

Frickin insane. Prayers for all the victims and loved ones. |
