Pete Thamel is shocked and disappointed.
October 26th, 2023 at 2:45 PM ^
He needs to break a story about Day's hair dye brand

I desperately want someone to find some dirt on Pete Thamel and ruin his career...
His obsession goes beyond "journalism" and feels like Michigan fucked his wife or something.
October 26th, 2023 at 2:25 PM ^
Ok, now go do some real reporting on spygate that isn't fed from OSU.

What's Angelique had to say so far about Stalions? I always thought she was an appealing person but a bit of a homer, too close to the program to maintain much critical distance.
October 26th, 2023 at 2:35 PM ^
She's just written a few articles for the News - nothing new.
She is what she is. Back last year, Michigan shouldn't have inducted her into the "Michigan Stadium Hall of Fame" (and she, for her part, should have said "not now", I'm still working the beat).
Wait until she's retired for something like that. It looked ridiculous: that's how (not 100% incorrectly) one gets labeled a shill*.

* - yes, other programs have their media shills too.

bitching about a working sportswriter being "inducted" into some phony-baloney "stadium hall of fame" is some miserable, unhappy person stuff.

Blue Wall, bitches!

Congratulations to Angelique on this major award. Hopefully it's been upgraded by its Italian manufacturer since a few decades ago.

What are you talking about? It's not just a lamp, it's a major award! It blazes forth in unparalleled glory.
October 26th, 2023 at 2:43 PM ^
BLUE WALL!

I mean this in all honestly, but for what? Like during every major story that I can remember happening on the UM beat, she and the majority of beat writers just sat it out. Did she publish one piece of substantive and original journalism during the coaching search? No. I feel like she just publishes press conference quotes.
October 26th, 2023 at 2:48 PM ^
She is 100% deserving of it, too
October 26th, 2023 at 7:06 PM ^
I agree, the "Angel of the Bighouse" is awesome. Her interactions with Wojo are legendary.
Congratulations Angelique

Good for her.
October 26th, 2023 at 3:09 PM ^
And congrats to Graham Couch for finishing 12993rd. Just being nominated is an honor, of course.

She is annoying and not ever very insightful.
