If I Could Turn Back Time Drinking Thread
Yes, perhaps I've watched Deadpool 2 a bit too much, but here I sit drinking vodka crans on a Friday night wishing that Zach Gentry didn't have that td pass raked out in Columbus.
The real questions remain...
(1.) What are you drinking?
(2.) What Michigan football moment would you change given time travel capabilities?
(3.) What song is playing on your Spotify compatible device of choice?

1) Great Lakes Conway’s Irish Ale
2) the JT Barrett spot
3) new Vampire Weekend tunes have me digging back through their older albums. I didn’t appreciate Contra like I should have when it came out
Also trying to get a damn baby to sleep. Sleep is amazing, kid. Let’s all go to sleep.
February 15th, 2019 at 11:22 PM ^
Yeah the spot. You right.
February 15th, 2019 at 11:42 PM ^
Or any number of blown calls that would make the spot irrelevant.
February 17th, 2019 at 2:40 PM ^
True. But the spot would have been the lat play of the game.

you are all looking at hillbilly's comment on #3 and are saying, 'what?'. if you haven't heard it done by these guys take a minute on the link here, it is really cool:
February 16th, 2019 at 9:12 AM ^
I've got the wahhhh wahhhh part down cold. Now if I could only whistle that well...
February 16th, 2019 at 9:34 AM ^
the part that is even better for me is that little blond gal they put up in the mezzanine that sings the last half of the video - beautiful singing. what would they call that, a melody? not a chorus. whatever, its like the classic version of whomever sings the old pink floyd song, 'great gig in the sky'.
February 16th, 2019 at 9:55 AM ^
I have to give that a thumbs up
February 16th, 2019 at 10:13 AM ^
user name most definitely checks out.
that singing is cool.
February 16th, 2019 at 10:14 AM ^
That was good. What a great movie.
February 16th, 2019 at 10:08 AM ^
Yeah, the second part is more moving than the first.
February 16th, 2019 at 10:13 AM ^
Thanks for posting...big fan of the old westerns, having coincidentally watched Hang em High last night. The Godfather performance sounded great as well, but they killed it doing the music from the old westerns.
February 16th, 2019 at 10:38 AM ^
here is another one that will give you goose bumps. reminds me of so many significant things:

people in the audience in tears the music was so meaningful.
February 16th, 2019 at 7:03 PM ^
People ask me if there is anything worn under my kilt. I assure them that everything is in perfect working order...

February 16th, 2019 at 8:12 AM ^
You can get the Michigan Insider on Spotify. I’m guessing the MgoPodcast too.
February 16th, 2019 at 12:04 AM ^

February 16th, 2019 at 12:29 AM ^
1: Sip O’Sunshine
2: I would eliminate the bumble bee unis against MSU.
3: listening to “Let’s Play Two” Pearl Jam from Wrigley and trying to make my best homemade version of Pequod’s Chicago Pizza. Turned out pretty good.
February 16th, 2019 at 10:57 AM ^
Solid #3 - Pequod's Pizza is so good. Missed Play Two in 2016 but caught the 1st show this past Summer. Wrigley is such a great concert venue.
February 16th, 2019 at 12:32 AM ^
you have convinced me to finish the bottle of cab sitting at the bar
tie: JT Barret spot/ MSU punt block
Every Time You Go Away: Hall & Oates currently playing on Pandora

Nice. Haven't tried the quarter cask yet. Need to finish a bottle of the cask strength first, but it's definitely on the list.

Sipping Jack Daniels Whisky
Michigan vs Colorado Sep. 24, 1994, Ty Law knocks the ball down instead of up or on 3rd and 2 in Colorado territory on our last possession Michigan offense line does not get a motion penalty.
Snoop Doggy Dog (appropriate 1994 debut hit):
Who Am I (What’s My Name?)
Side note: Had seats in South End zone in section 8, row 70, and had the perfect spot to experience this pain. I have never sense heard the Big House that quiet...
WHY: win this game, and Moeller has much better season and does not go on a drunken rant. Changes entire trajectory of Michigan football...
February 16th, 2019 at 8:23 AM ^
Burtcomma, I was in sec 10 row 71. Never knew 100,000 could be so quiet. For like a long time......
February 16th, 2019 at 9:04 AM ^
So glad you mentioned that 3 and out vs Colorado that preceded the Cordell Stewart thing. Never should have happened.
February 16th, 2019 at 9:35 AM ^
So true, they can't score if we keep the ball. Still stings today
February 16th, 2019 at 10:16 AM ^
Don’t rush three and have linebackers in against a QB that can throw it 70 yards.
February 16th, 2019 at 10:26 AM ^
I was 14 and that was my first game. I was a couple sections over and up from you.
I'm sure my aunt absolutely regretted taking me to that game while driving me the 5 hours back home.
February 16th, 2019 at 2:08 PM ^
Was it Ty Law or Chuck Winters? I think it was Chuck Winters.
February 16th, 2019 at 5:08 AM ^
1) I don’t drink at home
2) preventing the Ricky Powers fumble vs Colorado in 1994 or even the opening Grbac pass vs FSU in 1991.
3) Side 2 of Lies by Guns N Roses.
February 16th, 2019 at 6:02 AM ^
1. It’s morning - drinking Kona Coffee.
2. The spot. Changes the whole narrative on Harbaugh, the rivalry and probably improves recruiting for the year or so after (which were good but certainly not great classes).
3. I’ve got Beatles playing right now on my phone so I’ll go with that for #3.
February 16th, 2019 at 6:51 AM ^
1. coffee. cold brew. good morning to you all.
2. ah, that's like picking the scab off of any number of wounds. pass.
3. quiet now, but we were rocking it last night at home with all sorts of dance stuff that the kids like. eventually turned it off though when i got the venison off the grill and was reading to them during dinner.
February 16th, 2019 at 9:39 AM ^
Good morning!
February 16th, 2019 at 7:41 AM ^
1) Harney's mint-chocolate tea
2) The phantom holding call on Bo's fake punt conversion
3) What's Spotify?
February 16th, 2019 at 8:26 AM ^
1. Coffee
2. When Desmond was tripped in the end zone on the 2pt conversion against MSU
3. Principal's Office - Young MC
February 16th, 2019 at 10:14 PM ^
Far worse than the spot, not a single sane person can watch that play and not throw the most obvious call in Michigan history.
February 16th, 2019 at 8:47 AM ^
I would advise my ex husband to wear a helmet whilst skiing
February 16th, 2019 at 9:02 AM ^
February 16th, 2019 at 12:20 PM ^
I hope you hit the Wolverine on the Outback.
February 16th, 2019 at 9:09 AM ^
1) Last night it was Vernor's - this morning, cheap coffee from my 30 year old coffee maker.
2) Time travelers should not go back and change the past. Athletic directors vote in 1973, maybe.
3) Fastball's - The Way. I was flipping the channels yesterday and that song came up on VH1. Since I had not heard it in a long while I sat and watched the video until the end. I always loved the song but, did not know what it was about. After searching on youtube to have another listen last night, I was blown away with how the song came to be. The genesis of the song came from news reports of a missing elderly couple. Since I am dealing with a father and a father in-law who are not quite remembering things as they used to, the song hit home in a deep way.
