Al Borges Appreciation Thread!

da fuq

for this healthcare mess called Borgescare! 

I would like to thank Al Borges for bringing me back to RR levels of apathy regarding the Michigan football program.  Instead of being invested in the football team I can instead focus my energy on my new job, my family, and getting back in shape!  Thanks Al!  You're a real game changer in my life!

/s?

Hey, let's look at the positive.  Michigan has had positive rushing yardage in way more games than they haven't under Borges.  That's impressive.  Name one other school that can match how many games Mchigan has had positive rushing yardage in the last three years.

Al Borges chews dog excrement for godless hours. I just know long many nights others postulate quietly, regarding similar traits. Unfortunately various worrisome xenophobes yearningly zing.

Edit: I officially declare insanity. 

Thanks Al Bundy for making my life seem better than yours!  Oh this is for Borges?  *slinks away.....

Thanks for not surprising me Al.

I'd like to thank Al Borges for his first year, when he took control of a team whose offensive scheme was radically different than anything he'd ever run before and yet the offense ended the year with higher red zone efficiency and other metrics than RR ever managed.  

I'd like to thank Al Borges for his second year, when despite all those designed QB runs finally catching up with Denard, defenses finally figuring out his arm was nothing to fear, and who knows what in terms of injuries (the pinched nerve, possible knee issue, etc) all leading to the sudden transition of Devin from WR to QB, we came close to beating a 10 win SEC outfit in a bowl game.

I'd like to thank Al Borges for the fact that we're going to a bowl these year and as bad as the offense is, I've seen worse from other offensive transitions in recent memory.  As bad as the line situation is this year, I've seen offensive geniuses shit the bed to much worse degrees than this year.  No one we've lost to has more than two loses and they have 5 loses total.  The moments of futility suck, but so did offensive line recruiting for awhile and one of our higher ranked gets is currently a nose tackle because defensive line recruiting also sucked.   

Al, thank you for being the most stubborn, batshit crazy offensive coordinator in football today.

Quite the accomplishment.

We had the Wonder Of Denard, causing great pride. Yang. Masculine. Hard.

And now we wonder why we have you, causing equally great distress. Yin. Softness. 

Yellow is the most prestigious color and generates both yin and yang. Yin and Yang. It's the way of the world, isn't it? Michigan loves yellow.

Unfortunately, red is the color of good luck, joy, and so on, so we're screwed there, but WTF.

I think the reason we win more at home than on the road is Feng Shui, but I'm not sure why. 

Al:

I am thankful that Borges invented World War II

I appreciate that post. Good points. I am with you in your thinking.
