I like how some of them are blaming the officiating and calling Michigan a bad team. When you lose by 30 neither of these two things can be the reason.

I enjoyed...

<br>"Glad this game was on truTV because this truly was reality. Aside from bad refs we had no desire, played no D, have no shooters along with a couple wannabes that don't deserve a scholarship. Tobias was the exception"
<br>
<br>...and would add: It's not reality, it's actuality.

Not one person saying "Wow, Michigan is a lot better than I thought" or "I guess Michigan is a pretty good team."  Even some people had the audacity to say that we're a terrible team, they're just worse, which, like, whatever.  Then fine, you just got rolled up and smoked by a bad team.

"Damn this team is dumb, how many times are they going to comment the same charge?"

That one was my favorite.

More disturbingly, I noticed the reference to Pearl crying "Jew tears" at halftime.  Even more disturbing than that, no one called that guy out.  Apparently anti-Semitism is no big deal on that board.

Yeah, the "Jew Tears" comment and the lack of ANY response to it was very telling. 

I have the sneaking suspicion that the members of that forum probably drop the "N-bomb" on their own players while watching games on TV.

It is Tennessee after all.

that was a funny read! Keep in mind those are actual dyed-in-the-wool fans of a team. I pray we never have to support a Michigan team that causes us to write things like that; sucks to be them.

I LOL'd. Then I thought about all of the threads during/after the Gator Bowl. :(

Then I thought about winning an NCAA tournament game by 30 :)

In response to BigHouse_00 saying he had MSU in the Sweet 16 and ruining his bracket, some guy responds:

"Well you're an idiot savant if you had MSU winning two games. Unless you're an alum or big MSU fan why on Earth would you?"

Sounds like someone needs to be informed of what the phrase "idiot savant" means.

I would like to formally thank MOST people on this board.  This link makes you appreciate intelligent rational thought, and honest objective critiques of a team.  So thank you to the non-trolls on the board your opinions (whether or not I agree) have been shown in such a better light after reading this board.

Perfect example, look back to the Bowl game this year, yes we were all upset, but I don't think I saw anything resembling the bashing of individual players.

as their competition, and the entire conversation was, "Dang, sucks that we drew Duke," and "At least we get to play Duke."

Whoah.  Easy, my little orange friends.

They no nothing about basketball accept that their team sucks. Blaming the refs, bashing an individual player non stop, and talking about firing Bruce pearl every other comment. And instead of giving us props, they we suck, makes me laugh.
