Ok cool.

Victory for M-S-UUUUUUUUuuuuuuuUUUUUUUU!

I do not find anything useful in a post such as this. I believe that everyone here is well aware of the differences between Jim Harbaugh and Michigan vs Dantonio and MSU. MSU makes me sad...I find no joy in their (continued) depravity.
December 20th, 2018 at 7:09 AM ^
Am I a bad person in finding joy in their depravity?
Not the Nasser level shit, but just the fact that that their football program is basically a prison built to temporarily house current and future felons for 4 years - on a landfill of a campus nonetheless.

No way. I revel in it. If you work with/live by/have family that are Sparties, this is where you make your hay. Those jackasses have been insufferable. Use these opportunities to rub their fricking noses in the dog shit.
and yes, username checks out.

When I returned to metro Detroit for Thanksgiving this year, I noticed a distinct lack of green and white flags in comparison to the last few years. Where did all the Spartans go?

Montae Nicholson was a Michigan recruit until we were full at his position. He was good enough to get to the pros. People thought Michigan had poor judgement not taking him. I didn't read the particulars of the fight, but our own Jim Harbaugh broke his hand on Jim Kelley's jaw when he hit him. (Jim Kelley actually has jaw cancer now, which isn't cool, but there's a Chuck Norris joke there.) Jim Harbaugh also told the story a couple of years ago about getting whooped in a back alley brawl outside a country bar when he was with the bears.

Every school is going to have its percentage of dickheads. My brother-in-law played HS football with a guy who had a long and storied career at UM. But back then, this guy was an obnoxious loudmouth drunk who liked to start shit and thought he could whip the entire bar. One night when they couldn't settle him down and the cops were on the way, his own teammate had to coldcock him and carry him out of the bar.
So Nicholson may be a POS, but we've had a few of our own.

Good to see the rivalry isn’t dead between dorms....lol
But even though I’m a 3rd Strauss guy, I like and agree with your post.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:13 AM ^
South Quad is our rival. East Quad is sort of the "little brother" in this scenario. East Quad never showed up to the snowball fight.

The Residential College generally wasn't much for hard-asses. We did have some hockey players on my hall, though. They were wild and we had a couple of good IM sports teams. Many, many years ago, though.
December 20th, 2018 at 10:54 AM ^
The fond memories of funnelators shooting oranges from Williams House onto South Quad resulting in full scale snow ball wars. Don't mess with Rumsey House.
East Quad were more like conscientious objectors.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:15 AM ^
Kelly.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:28 AM ^
You need to watch the fight. I don’t see Harbaugh as the guy who continues to hit a man, after said man hits the canvas, flat on his back.
December 20th, 2018 at 7:07 AM ^
Was he with Plax or Bullough??? Sparty on!!!
December 20th, 2018 at 8:38 AM ^
Nah, plax is probably still in the clink for cheddar bobbing himself in a bar.
December 20th, 2018 at 7:10 AM ^
He should've saved a few of those hits for on the field. Then maybe the Redskins wouldn't have had to trade for Clinton-Dix, and Nicholson would still have a starting job.
December 20th, 2018 at 7:23 AM ^
At one time Nicholson was a UM recruit.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:00 AM ^
I know this is a popular quip from the Spartan partisans but in real life we all make choices that cause us to end up in very different places. If he had indeed gone to Michigan it is mindless to say that this event would still have happened-or not.
December 20th, 2018 at 7:37 AM ^
I just watched the video. Pretty severe beating he inflicted on the victim.
Apparently the guy he assulted comitted the unforgivable sin of honking his horn at him. Definitely something worth going to jail and throwing your career away over. I mean if you dont beat people after having them honk their horn pretty soon word will get out and EVERYBODY will be honking their horn at you.
December 20th, 2018 at 7:54 AM ^
Evidently he didn’t have a ski mask handy to protect his identity.
December 20th, 2018 at 9:01 AM ^
According to Montae's fall guy, the supposed victim continued to throw his face into Nicholson's fist.
December 20th, 2018 at 9:24 AM ^
I'm sure he thought he was just "littering" on that guy's face like they taught him in EL.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:21 AM ^
I think that’s the girl Montae was rolling with. Class acts, both of them.
December 20th, 2018 at 7:56 AM ^
Roid rage
December 20th, 2018 at 8:03 AM ^
I’ll never understand why some people that have made it to professional sports and the money that brings continue to make such stupid decisions.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:17 AM ^
You can’t fix stupid.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:23 AM ^
Because.. they're stupid?
I dont know if you've noticed this or not but recently it came to my attention that Mensa had precious few NFL players as members. Almost none actually.
There's a reason why 78% of all NFL players are either under finacial distress or bankrupt within 2 years of retirement despite many making more money than most of us will see in our lifetime.

How's Brendan Gibbons doing? I can Google this too, but I thought you'd tell a more colorful story.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:43 AM ^
well big guy (or gal), how are you doing? can you please share with us some info about your background? would be very interested to hear about your athletic/school/career/family history. if you're going to hang out here with us and snipe, pull up a chair and tell us a bit about yourself.
December 20th, 2018 at 8:56 AM ^
I am not a bum. I'm a jerk. I once had wealth, power, and the love of a beautiful woman. Now I only have two things: my friends, and... uh... my thermos. Huh? My story? Okay. It was never easy for me. I was born a poor black child. I remember the days, sittin' on the porch with my family, singin' and dancin' down in Mississippi...
December 20th, 2018 at 10:55 AM ^
funny. but seriously, you are a regular here. dish, man. what's your story, even a little bit would be interesting. i'm sure you don't communicate to your friends the way you do on this board, and it would be interesting to see the other side of you, the one that makes friends.

Dantonio is bailing him out of jail as we speak.
December 20th, 2018 at 10:30 AM ^
You've seen the video, but the kicker is even better. The woman he was with also fought, only she used a bottle on the woman with the guy that Nicholson beat. She was charged with malicious intent to injure - a more serious charge than Nicholson received (simple assault). So, Nicholson bailed himself out, and let her stay in jail. As of ~6AM this morning, he has not posted her bail.
Maybe you think differently, but it seems to me that he should have helped out the (ahem) lady that helped him in the fight. He's the one that clearly has the money between the two. But, in a typically Sparty kind of move, he lets her sleep it off in a cell. What a schmuck...
December 20th, 2018 at 10:40 AM ^
Some guy started a fight with him and his gf. These charges will get dropped. Move along
December 20th, 2018 at 2:15 PM ^
To be fair, drunken brawls happen everywhere. I've never partaken in any, but some guys are just wired where they like to fight at bars. I don't get it, but I have a buddy who goes to UofM med school that likes to fight at bars.
Its never gotten out of hand, but I also had some other buddies that are a little more physically imposing (collegiate offensive tackles) and they used to get phsical at bars. Got into some fights with bouncers.
Again, I've never done it and I personally think fighting makes you look weak, not strong. But this shit just happens
December 20th, 2018 at 4:39 PM ^
Don't you mean, "littering?"
