It is sad to see how this…

It is sad to see how this community has degraded lately. It does feel like the combination of the new site and the “wait and see” attitude has made this place boring and not worth checking out. 

The lack of media day coverage was surprising and expected at the same time. I hope they produce an app that makes it easy to post again. That would be a big step forward.

No No he is not enrolling early. He mentions in the WTKA morning interview that he will start working with the team in July. He is playing baseball this spring for Garber where he “hopes to win a state championship”
Careful He said he hoped to catch more passes than Hill because he “moves a bit better”. Not that he was a better player.
Today It was from today on WTKA where Sam was discussing the situation. Podcast should be up by now.
I don’t think Brandon said no one will take the job from him, but is quoted as saying “I don’t care if they bring in 30 QBs”
100% I have run out of patience with him as well. He doesn't seem to really get it. He needs to be a model citizen after what be did and for him to spin the ball a second time drove me crazy. Seems like he has a lack of self control and I just can't tolerate it. Get back to the Fing huddle and shut up.
Play the game..

Can we get to the game sooooon?  I am starting to get frustrated that this will be THE excuse when we beat them...it's taking away from the game.  I do not want any excuses...

Cat5

I sucked it up and ran Ethernet cable to my 2 main TVs.  I'm running one with Roku3 and the other wtih Amazaon Fire TV.  I have never had a buffering issue.  I really like the Amazon Fire TV interface over Roku - you get the guide with Amazon Fire..

I have had buffering issues with my Roku stick..so I'm glad I ran Cat5 cable as this is the future...

I also have 2 Chromcasts, but do not like them as I have to use my phone as the remote - it's the reason I will not go with YouTubeTV as well.  I am sure they will come out with a app for Roku/Amazon (if they are smart).

Saving $70/month with PSVue and don't miss it at all - I actually get more channels (SEC Network and ESPNnews) that I had before.

Vue

Yes, you can have up to 5 feeds at one time I believe.  Each act independently.  I have Chromcasts, Rokus (a stick and Roku3 wired) and now an Amazon Fire TV box.  They all have different interfaces for PS Vue.  I recommend the Amazon Fire TV as on now - best interface as it includes a Guide feature that Roku does not.  I don't like the Chromecasts because I need to use my phone/tablet as the remote..

 

PSVue I am cutting next week and going PSVue after vacation. I wanted to wait for basketball to be over as I am still not sold on the DVR functionality with live sports. PSVue has better channels and I plan to use a Roku and Amazon Fire for the interface. YouTube TV has to run through Chromecast and that is a huge negative in my book. I don't want to use my phone as a remote... especially with trying to explain how to accomplish this to the in-laws and such who watch my kids periodically. I see no reason to keep cable now with having the local networks , espns, BTN and many others for $35-$45) month. I am going to save $40-$50 easily and get what I want..
Shutout

I will be disappointed if we don't shut them out.  The offense should have their way; 45-0

Cali kid I have referenced this a few times over the years. I remember thinking "so much for the California kid"..No one seemed to remember that his 1st pass was a pick 6
Block M I prefer the block M. I just see the skinny M and think it's too old school for me. I did try them both on at the M den and was disappointed in the style. The front is way to high I just couldn't buy either. Nike needs to modify this..it is not a good look. My buddy bought the skinny M Jumpman version and was upset at the same thing-front is too high...I need a solution as I always like a new hat for the season.
I'm in

I'm skeptical if anything comes from this, but I'm game for giving it a shot.  This decision is so blatantlybias towards SEC/ACC and the fact that their coaches don't want to work.  

ouch That was my 1st game in person...damn Rocket

Well done

That was very well done and I want to watch that again on Saturday before heading into the Big House for The Game.  We all are disappointedthat it isn't necessarily for the East Title, but this is about getting back on the mountain and for this team to let everyone know they are back and look out for the future.  I can't wait to feel the energy inside the stadium on Saturday.  Go Blue.

Energy The energy in the stadium is much higher than the past 8-10 years. Everyone wants this. It seems even the most laid back fans have that feeling deep down that they are tired of losing and not having respect. I cannot wait to experience next Saturday. There is going to be such a buzz all week leading up. I can't remember the last time I heard the "DE-FENSE" chant that loud. Enjoy he ride and Go Blue
Don't like it I'm surprised by the number if comments trying to justify this. Perception is reality to a degree here and this is what opposing fan bases want to see. We are racking up recruits of questionable star ratings and taking transfers like never before. It was a matter if time before a numbers crunch began. We have a senior who believes he's fit to play and pressured to sign the hardship waiver we all are skeptical about. I surprised its not more black and white. He should be eligible or not ...determined by the training staff. No debate. I don't know what is true, but I'm disappointed it is playing out this way.
Plymouth...my bad sp
Go to Pkymouth I've worked in Dearborn for 15 years. I currently live in Northville and love it, but it would be tough for $200k. It more family orientated anyway..I've lived in Dearborn, Canton, Livonia before and I'd recommend Plymouth. The downtown is great with lots going on, a good night life and the highway access is easy to Dearborn and most importantly Ann Arbor. I like being 20 min from A^2. Take a look and check it out before deciding..many options for your drive into Dearborn as well which is key with traffic.
Deserved it

It feels good that these kids finally got a win - a hard fought win over a rival.  The future still looks bright. Even with all of the injuries and early departures, this team is still fun to watch.  I mean who though Spike would go off like this?  I can imagine what some of the OSU fans must think..."Who is this guy that is dribbling around making us look bad?"

 

it happened has to be the new tagline
When will this officially break? I feel like some secret society and I'm wondering when this will go mainstream? its all twitter and blogs and...I'd like to see M get some recognition for pulling this off!
Taking it all in I purposely waited until my 2 young kids were tucked in bed so I could relax and enjoy another searchbits...This is the best news as I've been confident, but waiting for Brian to confirm all of the rumors. If B is confident then this IS HAPPENING
M hat That would be the middle finger to the 9ers and I'd love it. I cannot wait for the happening to happen. I say we tailgate the presser.
Up and Down

From Bolivia to anointed so fast..this is a great day.

The correct cause

I enjoy that this community is working towards the cause to get DB out of here.  It's not THE agenda, but a good representation of the feelings of our fan base.  This has to come to an end.  It is just unfortunate that the most entertaining part of our year so far is seeing how this plays out...

It has to happen

This has gone on long enough - the lack of control is scary.  Hoke was hung out to dry and I'm not making excuses for him, because HE SHOULD HAVE ASKED ..

Good Morning

Well that just made my early morning much more tolerable.  I love that he was supposed to visit State and committed to us instead.

won? my dvr ran out with 3 seconds to go in OT..I missed he last shot!! ahhh can't believe they pulled it out with Stauskus playing so poorly
ACL tears

Yes, what is going on?  There has to be something that is/is-not being done in conditioning or style of work outs that makes us more susceptible to ACL tears.  I remember Barwis at some point talking about how he prides himself on not having these types of issues....how can anyone deny this?  Wellman needs to evaluate what is going on - I'd like to hear some non-boiler plate discussion about the topic from the staff.  

I think it was Brandon

I really would like to know the same.  I believe it was Brandon for no other reason than $$ and knowing we needed to do something to re-energize the fan base.  It's not difficult to see in black and white while looking back on the season, but I still thought Hoke was going to give Borges another year.  

I doubt we'll ever know, and with how tight-knit the coaching staff/wives seem to be, I don't believe Hoke will cultivate any animosity towards Nussmeier..he just wants the best for M.

Northville Shout out from 5mile and Sheldon.. I've been cleaning out my stuff too and have that problem as well (M stuff from the good days and wife with no patience!) good luck
Android app I just want to say that the android app is well done and I appreciate the effort. It makes it a lot easier to navigate than the website on the phone. Thanks guys
5years..

I had to check, and yeah I'm at 5 years and change.  I'm on the site everyday as most are and one of my favorite posts/diary was the Decimated Defense..  11 Swans was one of the best posts that still gets to me..

pulled it out Nice win!
Agree

Made my lunch...oh the things people would do for a football scholarship..even to State.  And he chose this?!  I'm sure MSU did their homework on him and he was clean..

Laugh

Just reading these comments made me LOL in a staff meeting.  I blew it off when I was asked what was so funny. 

After Trey hit that shot I ran around the room with my wife looking at me like I was crazy - just before she had mentioned that this wasn't much fun because we were too stressed out.  I disagreed - this is sports woman!

Painful

I thought watching this would help with my "healing process", but it just made it worse.  I still cannot believe that last sequence and especially that Morgan's put-back didn't go down.  How can he sleep at night? I would replay that in my head every minute.  I feel for him and the team...

At least we get a chance to play again Thursday and I hope they are fired up with an angry attitude.

In a flash That game changed quickly..I still can't believe the last inbounds play..layup!
JV

Money...only 4 hits given up.  Just think if we can get Fielder and Cabrera going...

SEC

I have a good friend who went to Auburn and is from Alabama.  He even complains about how Alabama gets away with all of this...every one down there is in it together.  Seems to be working as most of the latest schools on probation are BIG (Us, OSU, and the PSU disaster)...if everyone is with you, it makes it easy.

Michigan Stadium

 

Agree, "Michigan Stadium" would be my vote.  I've been thinking it's too plain when you are inside the stadium.  Looks unfinished - maybe DB is waiting for the sponsorship go ahead to "dress" is up....

Happy days

Well that makes me smile today...Now we can look forward to basketball season with tremendous anticipation and not so much anxiety!  Go Blue

Taco

Taco per TVH

wow

What a day,,,what a day. Burke was so clutch!

Congrats

Enjoy every minute, sleep is over-rated, and glad to see your brainwashing has started early!  I'm sure he'll be doing the Touchdown by next season....my 2yr old daughter says "daddy has Go Blue on!" everytime I wear something with a block M.  Which is very often.  Still working on my 10month old boy...I have high hopes as well Coach Hoke!

 

Still up

The fact that it's still up is perfect...just adding some more salt to that wound.  Ouch
