9 weeks 4 days ago Props for making me almost

Props for making me almost spit out a mouthful of Dr Pepper at work.  That was a very funny sentence.

13 weeks 22 hours ago Seconded

There is so much jumping around and craziness going on, then for a split second there is a hand on her stomach.  If a creep was really "feeling her up" I don't think it would take a few re-watches for her to realize it.

I'm not saying I'm 100% sure there were no ill intentions, but that's kind of the point.  I don't think anyone could get a 100% decision from watching that, so maybe toning back the "creep in the headband" comments would be appropriate?

13 weeks 3 days ago Dubs, I have used your joke

Dubs, I have used your joke several times now since I saw it almost ten minutes ago.  Normally I would feel bad for stealing your material, but Mencia made it okay for all of us.  Plus I am razzing OSU fans, so I'm sure you won't mind.  Props to you, my friend.

14 weeks 2 days ago Nice to hear about Fred

Nice to hear about Fred Jackson kicking ass on the recruiting trail. I love his confident approach that stops short of arrogance. With all the fun we have with his hyperbole, I sometimes forget what a great recruiter he is.

16 weeks 3 days ago This thread reminds me of the

This thread reminds me of the Family Guy episode where Peter and the guys start talking about "Who would you rather start a small business with?" instead of the usual "Who would you rather have sex with?"

19 weeks 44 min ago Something I found interesting

Something I found interesting in the article was the fact that Kelly has succeeded at Oregon without "his own" staff-  most of the staff is made up of Belotti's guys.  Now it helps that Chip was a coordinator and knew them already, but still-  usually these super successful coaches bring in all their own people.

It just makes me think that Kelly is good at adapting to the situation, which I hope is the case.  I don't think anyone expects the Browns to run the exact same scheme as Oregon, but if he adapts his offense to the pro game and his personnel, there could be good things in store for Cleveland.

But probably not.

25 weeks 2 days ago I hope we bust out the play

I hope we bust out the play from last year where you baited two Buckeye defenders into running into each other (cue the three stooges sound effect) then caught a TD pass.  It's easily my favorite play from last year's game and It obviously worked to perfection, just like you guys drew it up!

GO BLUE!! BEAT OHIO!!

25 weeks 3 days ago Wait... that would indicate

Wait... that would indicate dishonesty, and we all know Urbie is a straight shooter.

25 weeks 4 days ago Unfortunately, I have lived

Unfortunately, I have lived about 20 min away from Buckeye Ground Zero for the last 17 years.

There is kind of a weird vibe going on, the sanctions have hurt the hype machine that is usually going 100% during a week like this.  OSU fans are still as confident and obnoxious as ever, but it's kind of nice seeing how much the bowl ban has dampered things for certain individuals who would normally be going all-out.   I'm kind of glad it ended up this way, with them being undefeated.  We get a shot to ruin the ONLY "prize" to their season. 

It seems like our defense is the key to this particular game.  If we can defend Braxton similar to how Wiscy did the other night, we'll win.  The Buckeye defense has been suspect all season and the only reason they snuck away with a victory last weekend is the Badgers QB situation.  Devin will have chances to complete throws down the field, our defense just has to keep Braxton under control.

27 weeks 6 days ago I know that terrible

I know that terrible announcers seem to be the norm nowadays, but Dear Lord, Chris Martin has got to be the worst color guy that I've ever heard. I was doing double takes the whole game. My favorite line was when he was talking about one of our defensive players...
"He's truly made himself into the player he's become."
Well... yeah.

36 weeks 6 days ago RIght...

Because Urban is obviously in charge of scheduling and it's totally feasible to change next year's schedule if you "have the balls" to do so.

I hate OSU but good lord, they've scheduled Texas, Miami, USC, and more to come.  I think they're doing okay as far as scheduling OOC opponents.

37 weeks 2 days ago I'm pretty sure I'm straight...

...but Brady is looking pretty doggone sharp in that jersey.

38 weeks 6 days ago I always dreamed about

I always dreamed about playing football in the Big Ten conference, and now I have my chance!  It's not like Iowa could turn me away just b/c I'm a 25 yr old slow white dude.. they pretty much have to take what they can get at this point.

EDIT:  My ACLs and I just had a talk and they nixed that whole idea... oh well.

40 weeks 2 days ago Love the unis

These were by far my favorite road jerseys... the only away duds that even came close to rivaling our home blues.  Somehow the blurry, low resolution broadcast from 2000 makes them look even better.  Magical, somehow.

40 weeks 4 days ago Ohhh that's right

I forgot how much everyone here likes reading the exact same opinion 100+ times in a row.

/drinks mgoblog kool-aid...   Only five years!?? Make it ten years, dammit!!!

I must have missed all this NCAA love when they handed down our sanctions for stretching too much.  M Wolverine probably pointed out that it was "completely within the NCAA's purview" to do so.

40 weeks 4 days ago Thank you Dawggoblue

I was beginning to think I was the only one who felt this way.  I'm sure everyone here would just shut up and take their medicine if the NCAA obliterated the Michigan football program for criminal actions of 3-4 department officals.

41 weeks 23 hours ago Not currently listening to it, but...

"Take a Walk" by the Passion Pit has been on repeat in my head for what seems like a week.

41 weeks 23 hours ago Now I will!

He is very underrated as a singer, IMO.  I've always wished he would take a break from the goofball lyrics and mediocre movies and put out a serious album or two.  His range is huge and he has the perfect "raspiness" for rock vocals.  You would think Dave Grohl would've hit him up for another side project by now.

41 weeks 23 hours ago Love it

Those are the kind of plays that get me all warm and tingly.  Don't get me wrong, I love watching Denard in the spread offense... he's one of the most exciting players I can remember... but I definitely won't mind seeing some big ol' fullbacks lead the way for the Michigan power running game I've come to know and love.

The encouraging thing is that Borges seems to like to mix it up.  I doubt we stop recruiting athletic QBs and I could see a Brady/Henson situation down the road where we have different players with different strengths coming into the game to run a variety of formations.

1 year 12 weeks ago Love it ixcuincle

Comments like these are why I love mgoblog.  I'm scrolling down, checking out what everyone has to say while thinking about the topic, then bam!  A hilarious comment out of left field that makes me bust out laughing.  Give yourselves a round of applause, everyone.

I hope that made sense.

1 year 12 weeks ago Lin

Not sure if anyone was watching the j. Lin halftime piece, but how can you not like the guy after hearing that interview??  He's the anti-Bron.  It shouldn't be a surprise that he's so smart, going to Harvard and all, but it's shocking to hear a young rising star who is so heady about the whole situation.

1 year 15 weeks ago A conundrum...

How can I tell if I cook better when I'm high?  If I cook it when I'm high, that mean I just partook in some recreational activities, which means I will also be eating it whilst high.  Anything and everything tastes better when I'm high so I will never be able to judge it impartially.

1 year 26 weeks ago How is the play calling

How is the play calling killing Denard??  Borges called a lot of short passes, that's why Denard had a decent completion percentage.

Borges also calls some Denard keeps like everyone wants, but they aren't going for big plays like last year.  Our offense just scored 31 on one of the Big Ten's best defenses, and we were inches away from two more TDs.

And this the players' first year system... give it some time, even if it isn't perfect after 10 games.

1 year 26 weeks ago 42 points??

Going with Illinois isn't crazy, but there's no way that offense scores 42 on us.  They've only cracked double digits once in their last three games!  Our defense won't give up more than 20 to the Illini.

1 year 35 weeks ago Gilbert Gottfried

Gilbert Gottfried used something very similar in his roast of Bob Saget a few years ago:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=f26tqqbvj3M 

He's not really my cup of tea, but I thought his whole bit was pretty funny during that particular roast.

1 year 39 weeks ago I love the guy's excuse for

I love the guy's excuse for wearing the OU shirt... he "got dressed in the dark"?  I guess he didn't look down the rest of the day and notice the big Oklahoma logo on his chest.  I agree w/ fhshockey-  he definitely did this on purpose.

I don't know if it justifies Gundy going off to the extent that he did, but that seems to be Gundy's thing.

1 year 45 weeks ago It's okay

It's okay, I'm a rapper so I'm allowed to actually type the word out.

1 year 45 weeks ago Yeah there was some dude who

Yeah there was some dude who kept trying to trick people into clicking on porn links... looks like the mods finally booted him.

1 year 45 weeks ago Pumped Up

Watching this video got me all jakked up for September.. only a couple months away.  Some good editing, I enjoyed everything except the god awful music but that's obviously just personal preference.  The "turn up the lights" lyrics made sense but it's kind of distracting to hear some rapper drop a bunch of f-bombs and "nigga this nigga that" while I'm trying to watch Shoelace decimate ND's defense.

1 year 45 weeks ago Obviously if the offense

Obviously if the offense becomes lousy enough to lose us football games, there will a legimate room for criticism.  I just don't understand the pessimism about Borges ability to "handle" Denard.  DR is obviously a huge talent, but Borges is a veteran OC and has proven he can adapt to different types of players.  No, it's not going to look exactly like RR's spread, but just b/c we're not running the shotgun spread n shred all the time doesn't mean DOOM for our offense.

I'm looking forward to seeing the RBs and TEs used more, but that's just me.  I guess my point is, I don't know why people seem to be so down on Borges-  his offenses have been pretty good at his last few stops.
