I attended the WFA too, and want to echo many of the comments made already. What an awesome day - I can barely wrap my head around it! I don't think I've ever been prouder to be a Michigan Wolverine. The players are exemplary - kind, encouraging, responsible, and accountable (to their coaches, team, and the whole Michigan fanbase). Their attitude sets them apart as true Michigan Men and a fine example for anyone to emulate. The coaches and staff all deserve big kudos too for attitude, humor, drive, and a well-run day with an amazing look inside Michigan football. I have to give special props to my scrimmage coach, Taylor Lewan. He helped a bunch of crazy women become a team, and even though we couldn't pull our plays together very well he stayed positive and funny. I wish I could do this once a month!
I was in the Big House and it was the most crazy, joyful, exciting game I've ever attended. During the fourth quarter I was literally trembling from emotional vertigo. I screamed myself hoarse, sat dejected with my head in my hands, and high-fived and hugged my neighbors (mostly strangers). We were almost out of our minds with joy at the end.
And the icing on the cake was that after the clock hit zero, after the mad celebrating started to die down and it was time to go, nobody went. Almost the entire stadium stayed and stood and danced and sang like crazy - anything we could do to express the pure elation we felt right then. Even after they cut the music off, the fans stayed and watched and cheered Denard again as he came out for his ESPN interview. I have NEVER seen so many people stay so long after a game, just to hold on to and share the experience a little longer.
Ahhh, THIS is a football Saturday in Ann Arbor! A balmy September day (please, rain - hold off!), GameDay and chaos on the diag, fratboys attcking a car with sledghammers, and awesome throwback uniforms.
I love love LOVE these throwback cheerleader jerseys. I want a one - desperately. Anybody know if they're selling them anywhere? Anybody know a cheerleader? :)

They are just photos I took of the TV screen during GameDay, after all.
And I think I found the jersey at the Adidas tent near the stadium. (right after I got my pic taken with the Heisman trophy)
.
Yes, embed fail apparently, (n00b) but you should be able to see the jersey on GameDay, right? (but who watches that?)
And, yes, they definitely look "female cut". Where's Tim Gunn when you need him?
