Get up for the downvote. Everybody get up!

Reading the title too…

Reading the title too quickly I thought this was an update on the Private Investigators Ryan Day hired in order to eventually embarrass himself further by losing to his rival even though their head coach was suspended. To which, will we ever find out the truth?

To answer your question, so many wonderful pies out there, but nothing beats cherry.

Multiple times daily. Every day. I’m even watching the shitty highlight reels people make and put on youtube (not everyone can be Luke D’Mello).

Yes, I was saying so before the season started.

 

I’ll still pay attention but this does indeed feel like the end of something for me. Kinda has to be. I simply don’t have the time and energy anymore. This season, particularly the signgate era, did not have a good effect on my professional life. And it surely didn’t help my family life, either, although winning it all brought everyone a whole lot of joy.

Good call, Boner.

The Notre…

Good call, Boner.

The Notre Dame game that year was another example. Offense kept giving the ball back, and the defense slammed the door again and again. That was the loudest I had ever heard Michigan Stadium up to that point in time.

I love your absolutely horrific banner idea. Someone should try it. It will be an utter disaster. A fiasco. Please do it!

Love it.

Thank you for sharing this story. You’ve written it so well.

Your grandpa and my dad were born just seven weeks apart. And yes, Michigan won one for ya. For all of us.

This is a bummer, man. There had already been a huge decline in quality of course, and this seemed inevitable. But I’m still sad about it.
 

SI was pretty much the only thing I read growing up aside from the newspaper. I was lucky enough to freelance for their website for one season. One of the best years of my life.

This one is also great. Same guy made a “One Shining Moment” video as well (linked in an earlier board post) which showed so much care and love for this team. That applies to the OP here, too.

This is incredibly well done. Clearly by someone who cares a lot about this team and these players.

Fully agree. The only one he’s ever thrown under the bus, ahem, I mean base, is Ryan Day.

Penn State ‘97 scored at…

Penn State ‘97 scored at least 30 points in eight of their games. Curtis Enis was selected as the 5th pick in the draft, one spot behind Woodson. Against Michigan, in Happy Valley, they notched just one garbage time touchdown which only happened due to a ridiculous referee spot on a 4th down run.

Yet you do not mention them in your synopsis.

  1. Kerry Von Erich was my favorite wrestler when I was a kid.
  2. It’s not every day someone provides a soundtrack to their diary, and this one was great.
  3. I love the sentiment here and am reminding all of my friends as many times as they need to be reminded, enjoy this. For as long as you can, which should be the rest of your life. 
“You don’t compare great vs…

“You don’t compare great to great” - Jim Harbaugh in his introductory press conference.

I’ve been thinking about this quote as these inevitable comparisons are arising now.

These are both incredible teams from two very different eras. Both shocked the world, albeit in different ways, the ‘97 team coming off of four straight losing seasons, the ‘23 proving you can win in the “stars matter” playoff era against the death star programs, built over a three year period.

None of the current team’s players were even born yet when Charles Woodson won the Heisman. For many of us there is a linear aspect to our fandom which connects these periods. But in the end it’s apples and oranges. Both are sweet and healthy. Both should be cherished for the magical seasons they were. Let’s just celebrate the hell out of this.

Just lovely, Alex. Thanks…

Just lovely, Alex. Thanks for all you have given these last three years. Go Blue!

I mean, it wasn’t a smart choice. And my wife was not into the idea. But he is still alive, and very happy this morning.
