Happy Birthday, Denard!
Denard 'Shoelace' Robinson turns 25 on this fine day.
During an era where there was little to be excited about, Robinson's electrifying play and Hollywood smile managed to make those years a bit more tolerable.
What is everyone's favorite 'Shoelace' moment/'s?

I think it's gotta be that whole game against Ohio in 2011. What a performance. Plus... the kneel. I love the kneel.
September 22nd, 2015 at 11:45 AM ^
Denard does it an everyone loves it. Tebow does it and he's a pariah. What's the difference?!

what fun is having a penis in the first place if it isn't going down anyone's throat?
/not a fan of the kneeling/Tebowing/whatever.

a playtpus trying to deep throat the Starship Enterprise. Or something.
September 22nd, 2015 at 1:56 PM ^
Tebow is in commercials during a game?
Hmmm... from what I've seen, in a game, Tebow kneels in the same manner as Denard.
Listen, I'm not introducing politics or religion in this... others are. Grow up and realize it's the same motion/act. It's just that you like one of the players doing the same thing as another player which you don't like (and haven't met to make a cogent like/dislike decision).

Shoelace Posbang?!!!

An all-time Michigan man. Didn't play on the best teams, but played with incredible grit and passion. Overall amazing athlete and person.
EDIT: Whoever downvoted me for this post should get punched in the De-Nards...
September 22nd, 2015 at 4:24 PM ^
He's the only douche who downvoted the thread.

Didn't see already posted, but he's out for a few weeks with an MCL sprain(?) last I read.
One of my all time favorites. We'll always have 2011, and 2012 was an under-appreciated season from a player-performance perspective. Could have been another special one with better coaching decisions and playcalling.
September 22nd, 2015 at 12:17 PM ^
on the Jaguars. More info please?
September 22nd, 2015 at 1:18 PM ^
but hurt his knee. (The report at the time. Haven't checked the follow-up.)
September 22nd, 2015 at 1:25 PM ^
The report I saw had him out several weeks with a knee injury. Sucks but atleast it's not a season ending thing.

Oh Denard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Denard to Roundtree. Even in the worst era of michigan football, it will be remembered as one of the best games/plays.

Happy Birthday, Denard!
May your day be filled with as much joy as you have given us. Or at least as much as we can see in this gif:
September 22nd, 2015 at 11:27 AM ^
I am sorry, but this GIF has to be used by Brian more, screw the Muppets! This is a dude that loved Michigan, loved to play, stayed out of trouble, etc
/s kind of

I loved seeing Denard's attendance at that game in the student section. It just reminded us that he, while an important athlete for the school, was also just another college kid having a great time with his fellow students.
September 22nd, 2015 at 1:04 PM ^
Absolutely.
His smile wasn't exclusive to football and press conferences. He was very much a presence on campus and took his smile with him.
September 22nd, 2015 at 3:17 PM ^
Agree this is my favorite Denard moment. I grew up in the pre-Anthony Carter era; AC and Denard are the two Wolverines who really could bust it open on any play. But as good as Denard was on the field, he seemed even better as a teammate and fellow student.

Nice.
September 22nd, 2015 at 11:39 AM ^
Just for that fact alone, you get an upvote.
September 22nd, 2015 at 2:01 PM ^
I share a Tuesday with Denard? Nice!
September 22nd, 2015 at 2:10 PM ^
I'll cave, upvote for you!

So MeanJoe got canned! Must be the Aussie version of SPAM!
September 22nd, 2015 at 3:30 PM ^
I think MeanJoe is taking offense and negging us.
September 22nd, 2015 at 5:01 PM ^
You seem a little obsessed with Mean Joe and Koalas.
