The Airing of the MGoGrievances
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:33 AM ^
Sticks and stones usually referred to someone personally giving you crap, which gave you the opportunity to give said antagonist a knuckle sandwich. The internet version of sticks and stones allows insults to be thrown from a long distance with no chance of a knuckle sandwich retribution. As a kid I had a short fuse - so lots of knuckle sandwiches were delivered and received. Gave me pause to what I said. I agree with most of what you say but some internet snipers never see the consequences of their words and enables them to be more bold. That said I've seen little if anything on Mgoblog or anything from you that I found insulting. There was just that one Sparty guy with the homophobic dick sucking fetish that was posting on one of the Brown threads that deserved a good ass kicking.

If you think sticks and stones gives you an excuse to hit someone, we have totally different interpretations of that. For me it means say what you want because words don't hurt. But if you hit me with a stick or stone it's going to get serious.
December 23rd, 2015 at 3:49 PM ^
Yes was referring to it as an idea - that words don't hurt. But usually that was in a schoolyard context - being bullied, etc. If as a kid you were never bullied and never got into a fight over "words" that is a good thing. Alls I'm sayin is it's easier to be a bully in cyberspace than with someone standing in front of you. And as a kid in the 60's in Ann Arbor many a punch was thrown and received - it was more of a "let them work it out" era.

I'm sick of people crowning recruits before they ever play a snap of collegiate ball. (There, I feel better now)

Hate that there is not a foot of snow on the ground. I like winter if I didn't I'd move

This x1000.
The griping about winter is sad. I love it. Don't like your current lot in life? Do something about it.
That and how people think the Bill of Rights includes "the right to not be offended."

at least occasionally.
December 23rd, 2015 at 1:29 PM ^
Please call traveling occasionally, especially on Eron Harris. His feet were moving all over the place and I never saw him called for steps. (I only watched ~10 minutes of the game, during which time he travelled at least 3 times.)

And replay officials: please grow a pair. We have entrusted you to overrule and correct the ridiculous targeting calls made by said officials (see above). You have one million TV replay angles and as much time as you need. Don't be idiots and blow this.
December 23rd, 2015 at 1:42 PM ^
I think you could have just stopped at B1G referees. Pretty much everything they do is terrible.

And the biggest is THERE WAS NO OSU ONE FRAME AT A TIME
I was at the game so I wasn't able to catch any sort of Harbaugh sideline meltdowns that appeared on TV. I *need* to see those meltdowns Brian, I need to.
And to the MGoPopulous, I need you guys to smarten up a little bit. Only one person has ever caught and commented on the pop culture reference that's seamlessly mixed with Michigan references pervading all three of my username, avatar, and signature. My name is not Sam.
December 23rd, 2015 at 9:47 AM ^
True. Smart people should be paying more attention to pop culture.
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:02 AM ^
To be fair it's a reference to an extremely well regarded and historically influential person in the art world, not like Ryan Gosling.

I thought the crown was a reference to Beckmann's tryptich, Departure, but not sure how it relates to UM.
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:50 AM ^
the crown was a tribute to all the douches out there on the interweb

Oh we have a Basquiat fan on our hands here, watch out now.
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:48 AM ^
Like you and your avatar SUCK. And I hate you because you have more mgopoints than me!

I can't even.....
December 23rd, 2015 at 9:26 AM ^
In that case, you DEFINITELY win the internet today! Congrats!

December 23rd, 2015 at 10:29 AM ^
'moar' and that sort of redundant, adolescent nonsense.
December 23rd, 2015 at 11:50 AM ^
My son (and now my daughter too) have been walking around the house for 2 months saying "Deez Nuts!"
WTF is that?
December 23rd, 2015 at 9:55 AM ^
Quit blaming all our problems on other people. You want to you know Michigan football has been so bad? Guess what, it's you!
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:27 AM ^
Quit posting like a douche, no one can even read this.
December 23rd, 2015 at 9:13 AM ^
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:37 AM ^
I avoid you
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:08 PM ^
but I have a bone to pick with all of you. Dantonio has built a good program and it will not go away quietly. We've been saying it since 2008 but no, Sparty is not just going to roll over and die suddenly next year because [Important Player X] has graduated. They are going to be annoying for as long as that Furrow Browed Doucheking is there. The Great Harbaugh can right this wrong but MSU isn't going back to classic Sparty No any time soon.

The BTN has more money that God, and yet the on-screen talent and production quality are Middle-School level at best.
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:25 AM ^
This bothers me to no end.
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:39 AM ^
And huge homers for the B1G. Even when a B1G sucks sucks they are busy propping them up. I watch very little BTN content for that reason.
December 23rd, 2015 at 3:32 PM ^
Can we get some wider shots too?! Their camera guys are terrible.
December 23rd, 2015 at 9:14 AM ^
I HATE EVERYBODY YOUNGER THAN ME!! YOU ARE ALL DOING IT WRONG!!!
December 23rd, 2015 at 9:27 AM ^
December 23rd, 2015 at 11:38 AM ^
Yes! I love both of you right now for bringing this up. Unless you're younger than me and make more money. In that case, fuck you.
December 23rd, 2015 at 10:09 PM ^
Older generation. You have ruined everything for my generation.
Younger generation. You are entitled and I hate you. You never work hard for anything like my generation.
December 23rd, 2015 at 9:14 AM ^
Noon games SUCK!
