The disparity in funds allocated to the two schools is extreme, but Polyblend explained that the Michigan legislature behaved rationally. "When hard times hit, in any family the parents have to make priorities about what they will spend money on. The first, best and most beloved son obviously will get the lion's share of the family resources, because the parents know deep down that he's going to accomplish the most in the long run. The little brother will, necessarily, get less. He won't be thrown out in the cold, of course, but he will have to make do with the gently used hand-me-downs of his older, more historically accomplished sibling."

Loved the gloves for the bonus uniforms:

I can see it happening...

Dantonio: Where am I?

Voice: In the Big House.

Dantonio: What do you want?

Voice: We want information...

Dantonio: Whose side are you on?

Voice: That would be telling. We want information...

Well done, BHGP!

to BHGP. You win the internet.  I also think that it's our civic duty to help out Li'l Bro'.  Perhaps a clothing drive is in order; I know I'd be willing to donate some gently-used items.

I agree with this: Thank you, Black Heart Gold Pants.  However, I disagree on RCMB.  It's going to be almost as funny as the BHGP post, even though they won't intend it that way.

"When reached for comment about the new jerseys, Michigan State head coach Mark Dantonio gritted his teeth, glared, and calmly took a nitroglycerin tablet from his shirt pocket. He then swallowed the tablet along with the coal-black rage he felt at this latest and most egregious slight, sending both down to the furnace of hate deep in his soul which drives him in his unrelenting quest for college football dominance no matter the cost"

I would pay money out of my own pockets to see either of those jerseys on the field. 

I think NCAA 13 should have these as unlockable alternate jerseys.  Not only would I buy that game I would buy copies and give them to absolutely everybody I have ever met in my life.

BHGP hit the stereotype about handmedowns on the nose. Although, I think the only Michigan handmedown Sparty would gladly accept are SAT scores.

Not only did I chuckle at Horace E. Cow's avatar; also, other articles by him just as funny are accessible and I think are worth a peek:  for instance, Minnesota's uniforms based on Minnesota native "Prince". I have a feeling Michigan's turn is coming. I hope it will be soon.
