SIAP: Could Spring Game be cancelled?
Weather is bad... real bad. Showing thunderstorms ALL day with 100% chance of rain for the entirity of the day.
Iowa State and Wisconsin just cancelled theirs already.
I really hope they pull the trigger early instead of waiting it out and ultimately cancelling when people make the drive if they have one.

...You'll bitch and moan some more?
Things weren't great and didn't turn out how we wanted them to, but the roster had an immense deal of youth, our starting quarterback went down twice, we were competitive in 13/14 games, and the 2019 and 2020 classes are shaping up to be excellent. There's a lot of cause to be optimistic for the upcoming season.
You just complained about a player that was never even committed to Michigan, for the love of God. I understand that you've undergone some changes in your life, but at least the "old" WD was optimistic instead of being entitled.

Some people in the world don't have the luxury of being born "TV pretty." I'm not saying it's the case for corundum, necessarily, but some of us were born with an unfortunate affliction known as "a face for message board posting."

Back in my day it was "a face born for radio."

I adjusted for medium. I learned from my ex-wife who adjusted for large over the years.

Since when can weathermen predict the weather?
April 11th, 2018 at 11:05 AM ^
They can't tell me what the weather is for golfing on Sunday but can tell me that it'll be 3 degrees warmer 100 years from now.
April 11th, 2018 at 11:47 AM ^

'cause it's easier to be accurate about broad-scope predictions than short-term minutiae. I didn't realize that was a controversial concept.

SMH. Climate and weather are not the same thing.

Louisville just moved their Spring game from Saturday night to Friday night because of impending bad weather. No reason why UM can't do same.
April 11th, 2018 at 11:32 AM ^
Nothing is certain, so yes, it could.
April 11th, 2018 at 11:35 AM ^
Might as well be prepared for it

Probably won't with visitors coming. Although they can do a normal visit with them.
April 11th, 2018 at 11:53 AM ^
Hope they cancel. Spring games are just a waste of time in the current age -- even if it were going to be 70 and sunny.
April 11th, 2018 at 11:56 AM ^
April 11th, 2018 at 11:56 AM ^
Official word just came out: Canceled.
April 11th, 2018 at 11:57 AM ^
April 11th, 2018 at 11:58 AM ^
I saw on my FB feed that the game has been cancelled. This was posted just moments ago by the Michigan Football account.

where we play sloppy - I am thinking @ND or @NW. We will go on to win the B1G and make the playoff.
We will have the best defense in the league, and a top 3 D in the country and the offense will be vastly improved, as in top 25 in the country. Harbaugh is not Hoke or RR - He acknowledges issues, and will fix them, IE - canning his buddy Drevno.
The biggest personell issue is clearly at the tackle position, and then the uncertaintly at the QB position (however QB is tough to judge given the horrible pass protection from last year).
Ultimatley, I see us in the playoff as a 3 or 4 seed where we lose to an SEC type Bama, Auburn, GA, Clemson team with an elite D-line and better O-line that grinds us down by the 4th quarter. Perhaps we luck out and play a Pac 10 or Big 12 team first and can bully them and get to the championship game.
We will be good, probably very good, but the glaring hole at one of the most important positions on the field (OT) will keep us from elite, and this wil carry over to to the most important position on the field (QB), where the pressure eventually breaks you over the course of 60 min.

1) I'd LOVE to see this happen
2) I want whatever you are having. Full of optimism!

See, it is this sort of weather that immediately comes to mind when Fox Sports Detroit tries so hard to push the "April In The D" promotions.
I mean, if they are going to cancel it, just judging from the comments in other threads, now would be a good time since it sounds like a fair number of people are at least making preliminary plans.

Yes.

Yes.
