Joel Klatt sums it up perfectly

The amount of Twitter muscle being flexed by #MichiganState fans this morning is baffling...you won on a dropped punt snap

Yea. They've won like 6 games by the skin of their teeth. And they will all gladly tell you about how this would be the most amazing thing ever because they have injured players on their team.

"Pride comes before the fall."  Please - let's not repeat and adopt a Dantonio saying like he has imparted some great wisdom we were missing in our lives.  Yes, I know it doesn't originate with him but he's the one who brought it up to describe us.  And now, we are repeating it like he taught us a great lesson.  Just stop.

I don't know. My phone started blowing up at approximately 7:20 PM as I was exiting the stadium. I ignored all of the bullshit, simply because I consider those that were sending this crap as beneath contempt. I so wanted to respond, but I figured ignoring them would send a message to that they couldn't get a rise out of me.

I personally would just ignore them, and whatever bullshit you have to endure, just make a mental note of it.

What goes around comes around. They will get their comeuppance, and soon.

Good luck to you. I must admit I am counting my blessings today that I work with a bunch of very bookish types who don't seem too into sports. If I had to go to my previous job tomorrow I'd be borderline suicidal. Social media has been bad enough. My dickbag cousin who jumped on the MSU bandwagon in 2012 at age 30 (and who of course didn't attend MSU, but that's OK when it's their fans) is fucking insufferable.

If some sparty asks "What did you think of the game?", an answer could be "It felt like before the Michigan coaching abyss when Michigan was the likely winner but some fluke play, bad call or dumb luck turned a win into a loss. It sucked but both sides knew that it was what seemed to happen every 7 or 8 years and that it is highly likely that Michigan will win for the next several years." When sparty calls "sore loser" or some other derogatory term, one can point out that it was them that were being an ass hole by asking a baiting question. Again, just like before the coaching abyss.

bring that up every time if I lived over there and had to deal with State fans. The dude right behind me clapped in my ear the whole damn game. I didn't want to embarrass you guys as a fan base but that shit wouldn't fly at an NDSU game. That bitch would've been knocked on his ass. I know I talk big but I was close to it. Then I started getting backup from all the other UM fans around. Thank god. Dumb schmuck!

I walked by two cops and one cop was congratulating bunch of Spartan fans. I would have thought it would a good idea not to indulge in this if you are a cop. I guess he didn't find any harm in that.

There was a house full of Sparties near the stadium. They were abnoxious. I have no idea how they found a house for all the sparties, in AA.

I heard some exuberant Spartans in the distance, but talked to just as many who were pretty tame given the nature of the ending to the game. A fair number of them seem to realize that they won on a play that may never happen again in their lifetime, at least the more introspective ones, as well as a couple here and there conceding that they honestly didn't expect to win.
