1 year 7 weeks ago	Also watch Hooligans, the	Also watch Hooligans, the Untold Story. There are several clips on Youtube and we watched it in the German Soccer class taught by Kalli. It's about the 2006 World Cup in Germany and efforts to control hooliganism by the English and Germans.
1 year 7 weeks ago	Great name, I took two	Great name, I took two classes with Markovits and did research for him. Brilliant man.    Congrats to my fellow graduates. Sanjay Gupta killed it, such a great speech.
1 year 12 weeks ago	You sir, made my day. Most	You sir, made my day. Most jokes were about older women and a friend of mine we nicknamed Bobcat, but this tops them all.
1 year 12 weeks ago	Keep it up Pat. The videos	Keep it up Pat. The videos are great, especially this one. Everyone I know is obsessed with this song.
1 year 13 weeks ago	My girlfriend and I  did the	My girlfriend and I  did the same thing and stayed at the State St Bdubs an extra hour. It was super calm in there and you wouldn't even know there was a storm outside besides the people coming in from the storm soaking wet.
1 year 13 weeks ago	Haha that's what I was	Haha that's what I was thinking last night as I watched the flood overtake my inbox. There were some funny responses but of course there were also annoying people like scumbag Steve.
1 year 14 weeks ago	From my point of view, the	From my point of view, the Yost flag was menacing. It looked like he was starring down Notre Dame during pregame. Great job Children of Yost! Also, great to see Brady Hoke at the game last night. I really like all the support this year from the other teams rooting on their fellow student-athletes.
1 year 14 weeks ago	It has to do with him being	It has to do with him being from the Northeast. Smotrycz was given the nickname Lobstrycz because of this and that is why they wear the lobster costumes.  Touche jmblue, that should be the plan.
1 year 14 weeks ago	I completely agree with	I completely agree with Smotrycz's role in the offense. He is frustrating to watch when he tries to create plays with the ball. Typically, he would end up turning the ball over, irritating most of us here I can only assume. The last couple of games, he had made strides to make plays without the ball and he has been a great asset to the offense.  That being said, I have to comment on the lobsters. Now, I know they were the idea of an alumnus who contacted the Maize Rage president, but the color red does not belong in the student section. Clever costumes such as the teletubby with the winged helmet work, because it is yellow and Michigan themed. I have stood next to the lobsters during games and some of them are the most obnoxious people I have ever met. I'm sorry if you are one of them, but if you are going to be annoying, direct it to the other team. A friend of mine who graduated last year was extremely obnoxious at games, but directed it toward opponents and Teddy V. I apologize for my rant, MGoCommunity.

1 year 15 weeks ago	Great video, I'm glad you	Great video, I'm glad you included the 300 wanna-be with the gold helmet behind the scorer's table.
1 year 15 weeks ago	With how competitive the	With how competitive the Central Division has been this year, I personally would prefer to have all hands on deck this time of year. Considering we just set the record for longest home winning streak, I'd like to lock up home ice advantage for the playoffs.
1 year 15 weeks ago	I can see a Kork	I can see a Kork Coupons-esque thread coming from this kid.
1 year 16 weeks ago	The Devils know about	The Devils know about whatever issues he has been having this season, so I think they may want him to stay and mature for another year. Red has worked with him well this year. He also has had a few instances that he needs to work on (see Northern's second goal of Saturday). I think he's going to stay. JMFJ was much further along at this point in his career at Michigan. Also, the players almost always talk with Red before heading out. Usually if he says he thinks they are ready and they want to go, they will leave. I doubt he will tell Merrill he is ready to move on to the next level.
1 year 16 weeks ago	When I was down in Champaign	When I was down in Champaign for the football game against Illinois, they acted like it was the biggest game of the year to them. To us, it was just another Big Ten game while waiting for the Nebraska and Ohio games.
1 year 16 weeks ago	Also a few on-campus crimes	Also a few on-campus crimes before DPS reported them to students, if they did at all (ie. Chem Building gunman and shooting by Thompson parking structure).
1 year 16 weeks ago	After the suspension this	After the suspension this year with him waiting it out, I believe Merrill will stay and that the Devils will want him to stay.  As far as goalies go, we have Steven Racine coming in and I believe another, check out Yost Built for our entire class' details. That will have more information that I can provide.
1 year 17 weeks ago	I just have noticed that BTN	I just have noticed that BTN in general has a lot more equipment than FSD and Comcast. FSD seems to do the main camera, a corner (either by the band or 3rd floor by north stands) and maybe an extra one on the ground level. BTN had like 2 in the corners ice level along with the ones up top.
1 year 17 weeks ago	To me, it seems like BTN	To me, it seems like BTN brings twice as much equipment and crew as the other networks (Comcast local and FSD) that cover games at Yost. Is it completely necessary to have like 4 or 5 cameramen? I personally prefer FSD when the Wings aren't playing b/c Ken Daniels usually covers the game. Saw him and Mickey getting some coffee a few years ago before heading upstairs to the pressbox.
1 year 17 weeks ago	Right where momma keeps the	Right where momma keeps the peanut butter. I am personally looking forward to senior night. Always a good way to send out the guys, especially those who don't receive as much proclaim for what they did here. Do it for the seniors, like team 132.
1 year 17 weeks ago	Cue the students that leave	Cue the students that leave before the game even ends. I make a point not to leave until after the alma mater has been sung.
1 year 17 weeks ago	Historically, the #2 seeds do	Historically, the #2 seeds do better than the #1 seeds. Also, after reading Blue Ice for Bacon's class, I don't want to have a 1 seed. We do better when we don't. He refers to it as the Terrier's curse - when we are favored to win, we don't. When we are an underdog, that's when we perform better.
1 year 17 weeks ago	This game is a good lead-in	This game is a good lead-in to the final home series of the regular season. Too bad I will be at Yost at that time. Guess I'll have to ask the parents to DVR it so I can watch over spring break.
1 year 18 weeks ago	Haha I forgot about that	Haha I forgot about that commercial.  Go with the Michigan jersey or the Labatts. Roy is still hated in town and Toronto fans despise MTL.
1 year 18 weeks ago	My roommate's dad was here in	My roommate's dad was here in the early 80s and said they used to buy an extra ticket and bring a keg into the student section with them. Maybe if we allowed this students would show up on time? Just a hypothetical.  Both venues will be great and should fill up. Does anyone know the fourth team in the GLI next year?
1 year 19 weeks ago	I agree with you that this	I agree with you that this should be a sweep given the way we have played since the Alaska series in the fall, but I am cautiously optimistic. I know that Miami tends to give us trouble. With that in mind, I decided to sport my Worst State Ever shirt today.
1 year 19 weeks ago	Here's to birthday goals from	Here's to birthday goals from each of them to go along with those 6 points. The Barn should be rocking, especially with the Children of Yost doing Don Cherry Night on Saturday.
1 year 19 weeks ago	Does anyone happen to know	Does anyone happen to know what hand? I assume it's his glove, since that side takes a little more direct abuse than the blocker.  The Wings will be fine, but let's hope he gets well soon with how tight the Central has been this year.
1 year 19 weeks ago	Didn't get to watch the game	Didn't get to watch the game besides the shootout. Pavel is so dirty, wouldn't want to be that goalie, let alone play against him. I wish we could have pulled this out in 3 instead of OT, just to put some distance between us and the Canucks. I'll take the win regardless.
1 year 19 weeks ago	NIke has owned Bauer since	NIke has owned Bauer since '94 but the Nike Bauer combo name didn't happen until 2006. They killed that name after about 2009 and just went back to Bauer. Reebok has been owned by Addidas since 2005, right before the Nike Bauer name came out.  I really like Reebok's hockey stuff. I was slightly skeptical at first, but I've been wearing 5K skates since junior year of high school and have had no problems at all. I prefer the Reebok logo on the jerseys, more fitting to hockey.
