Delany says reconsideration of division names possible.
The outcry possibly worked!
Says they will possibly reconsider division names after first of the year. I applaud him if he does. If you screw up, acknowledge it and try to fix it. Hopefully they will take a mulligan on the logo too.

take a quick peek about 10 posts below yours. Yep. Thanks.
December 17th, 2010 at 1:51 PM ^
wow, a triple
December 17th, 2010 at 1:28 PM ^
Come on man...do you like, work? Pay attention.
December 17th, 2010 at 1:30 PM ^
of this post is for sure gonna happen.
December 17th, 2010 at 1:32 PM ^
Anything is possible when enough people are pissed off!
December 17th, 2010 at 2:37 PM ^
Except elimination of repeat board posts.
December 17th, 2010 at 1:54 PM ^
I think you are getting negged purely because of your avatar. It wasn't me, but i did consider it before I realized others beat me to it. no need to beat a dead horseface, but thanks to those willing to give a point for a good cause. that shit be scary , yo!
December 17th, 2010 at 1:57 PM ^
I'm only here for the negs. What else am I gonna do wit my points?
December 17th, 2010 at 2:05 PM ^
Can't we turn them in for prizes like at Chucky Cheese?
December 17th, 2010 at 2:14 PM ^
that you could turn them in for a chance to hold his cat.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:25 PM ^
Dang, I wanted to get the lava lamp with my points.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:26 PM ^
people really hate that avatar.
December 17th, 2010 at 4:10 PM ^
Maybe your avatar's brain told you this? Looks like a guy, that is.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:24 PM ^
the site should have a collection of unwanted items for sale posted by users for appropriate amounts of MGoPoints. It would be an MGoBriansList of sorts. As time went by, the MGoPoint would gradually gain enough strength to first overtake the yen, then the peso, then look out dollar. those without sufficient mGoPoints will have to try their luck trading with its biggest competitor - iTunes credits. I don't know what I am talking about anymore. I think senility will be a smooth transition for me.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:28 PM ^
did you know that Jim Delaney is considering renaming the divisions? I heard that rumor somewhere.
December 17th, 2010 at 3:07 PM ^
I'll pitch in 1,000 MGoPoints to have someone shove the current division names up Delaney's ass. someone else will have to pitch in some MGoPoints for the lube if they think it is absolutely necessary. i have reached my charitable limit.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:32 PM ^
then everyone would start pos-banging each other and then there would be MGoPoint inflation and before you know it - it's 100,000 MGoPoints for a loaf of bread...
December 17th, 2010 at 2:36 PM ^
Would that be on mgoweimerrepublic.com?
December 17th, 2010 at 2:46 PM ^
we'd have to back to the short-lived costs a point to give a point system. I'm not a fan of that, but if my vision is to become a reality (and they often do) it will be a necessary evil we will all have to liearn to live with. Long live the Lizard King!
December 17th, 2010 at 3:29 PM ^
And the next thing you know this place turns into MGoZimbabwelog
December 17th, 2010 at 6:59 PM ^
Forgot about Zimbabwe which gave rise to the term hyperinflation
December 17th, 2010 at 2:58 PM ^
for you changing your avatar?
I have never passionately complained about avatars....... even on the two occasions (out of the 5 avatars that I've had) where someone turned up with the same avatar that I was using.
But your's is just wrong. It has nothing to do with Michigan. It has nothing to do with sports. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and guess that it has nothing to do with your personal interests. It's just there for the reaction. It has to go.
Maybe we can have a contest to see who can come up with the best alternate avatar? Winner gets a pos-bang.............
FTR, it's not worth negging you over. That's over the top especially when we have the ability to, you know, use words to express our feelings.
December 17th, 2010 at 3:30 PM ^
I think that'll do.
December 17th, 2010 at 4:13 PM ^
You are correct, I only use this avatar to get the reaction, so far it has worked beautifully.
And I really don't care about points. Neg away. At one time I was -1000 points, I never changed my user name, and I'm not gonna now.
And I love this avatar. She is a doll.
December 17th, 2010 at 7:15 PM ^
Points are like mgoblog street cred. Over 10,000 you are a shot caller, over 25,000 you become an OG (for all of the Gangland lovers in the room).
December 18th, 2010 at 7:04 AM ^
What type of cred will under 200 get me?
December 17th, 2010 at 1:44 PM ^
...calling the divisions the Todd Plate Division and the Troy Plate Division.
December 17th, 2010 at 3:26 PM ^
todd and troy both played at schools that are in the same division.
December 17th, 2010 at 1:45 PM ^
December 17th, 2010 at 1:49 PM ^
said this, normally I just up vote posts I like, but this was truly outstanding. I had to comment to show my true appreciation. Well played.
December 17th, 2010 at 1:53 PM ^
simply posting +1 will have to do. Nice.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:20 PM ^
Suffice to say, this is brilliant.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:37 PM ^
perhaps they should be called halves:
the
6 of One
and the
Half Dozen of the Other
December 17th, 2010 at 5:15 PM ^
They should make the Rotel and Velveeta divisions and have the championship be called the Queso Bowl.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:28 PM ^
You like Long Division over Synthetic Division? I think all the student-athletes would much prefer synthetic division.
December 17th, 2010 at 1:47 PM ^
The original post is still on the first page. How do you miss that?
December 17th, 2010 at 3:01 PM ^
already pointed this out. How do you miss that?

Did you guys hear Blake Countess committed? I think he plays football.
December 17th, 2010 at 2:37 PM ^
As an all-day lurker, I was wondering if you could the post that got you negged to oblivion.
December 17th, 2010 at 4:17 PM ^
I had been wondering the same thing candidly. Thanks for putting it back up.
You write fairly well drunk btw. I like the no puncuation, no paragraph, no spellcheck rants that hit at about 2:00am Sunday morning after a loss. Somebody should pull a "greatest hits" of those babies together.
December 25th, 2010 at 11:11 AM ^
Seriously? Wow, Brian must have been having a mega crappy day. That's freaking tame compared to the ones that get let go...
December 17th, 2010 at 3:18 PM ^
Technically I believe he was sent to Bolivion
