...perhaps you hit the nail on the head. I would imagine that if I had done a lot of great things, like being: I might not want my name confused with a fruit juice and apple sauce company.

For general information for people who may not be familiar, the C.S. Mott Children's Hospital was named after Charles Stewart Mott. Hospital administration tries to stress the point that the hospital be referred to in short hand as: In sports terms, it would be seen as a faux paus to refer to Fords Field, Yosts Field House or Michigans Stadium. Just an FYI! |

Please understand that there are many people out there, like myself, who value the concept of "The Michigan Man" and who would unabatedly agree with your sentiments towards these bullies and their parents. Unfortunately, many people out there believe "Michigan Man" simply means that being somehow involved with the University of Michigan gives a person higher status, when in reality (at least, my reality) it is about holding yourself to a higher standard to be a better person in the classroom and in society and use that influence to spread good - and that is not a terrible concept, in my humble opinion. Anyone with those traits, in my opinion, should be able to call themselves a Michigan Man upon the moment they set foot in Ann Arbor or don a Block M, regardless of whether they have any historical affiliation with the University. We should not try to decry the "Michigan Man" concept, as it is a noble endeavor, and to lose it would be to lose a part of our standards which makes our University great. We should rather be trying to spread the noble aspects of the concept to teach those who do not fully understand what it means, like these bullies and their parents, and to discourage the ugly misrepresentations of it. |

It has become clear that Dave Brandon should not read from a script. Today's opening comments were dull and somewhat uninspiring compared to his usual self. Then, at the end when he took the podium back and spoke from the heart, he was direct, he was from the heart, and he was powerful. All of his responses seemed genuine and on point. The last two minutes of the speech literally moved me... Please go back and watch the last 2 minutes. Dave Brandon: "This is about football players. This is about changing young men's lives. This is about bringing leadership in here who makes a difference in the lives of Young Men. And they leave here with a Championship ring. And they leave here with a great education. And they go out and do great things in life. "That's Michigan. "Michigan Men do that. They create other Michigan Men. "And the guy that you just met is all about that. He's all about that. And he didn't spend as much time with a PR machine as others may. And he may not be dressed up and polished like the Toastmaster General like other people... "And I don't care. I want a football coach. I want a football coach who's going to do with these Men what we want him to do - Teach them what to learn, and win. "That's Michigan." /End Press Conference.
Maybe I'm crazy, but if that doesn't make you want to do this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwW_y2TuW58 to the Ohio border, then I think all good is lost in this world. |

From the press release: "Floor was manufactured in the upper peninsula of Michigan in the town of Amasa, Mich."
Further article perusals reveal: "The floor was built by Connor Sports Flooring, a Michigan company that does the playing floors for all NCAA playoff games and more than half of the new college stadiums in the country." Pure Michigan. |

The article also suggests that Oregon's retired Mike Bellotti is somehow on the radar.
