Not wanting to say anything about the topic of this article, but one line in particular NEEDS to be shown:

If RichRod's job is in trouble, we're not going to hear about it from random chatter; it'll be from one of about four or five respected sources (including but not limited to CBS, ESPN, the AP, and mgoblog), because those are the people who are going to have access to the highers-up that make that call.

Way to go Brian and all the other contributors!  Good to see the blog getting the respect it deserves!

Its good to hear some respect coming this Blogs way.  It has become more and more clear over time that Mgoblog really is the best place to get clear reporting along with insightful commentary about U-M sports.  Its a place where any bias is worn on the sleeve of the various writers instead of hidden behind some agenda...to Brian, and all the regular contributors I salute you...

is like grouping a new Acura MDX with a five-year old Hummer that gets 6mpg, a heavily bondo'd 1990 Plymouth minivan that somebody's sleeping in down by the river, and a badly rusting '70 Pinto up on blocks.

Hot Damn!   I am an official contributor to a respected media source.  I guess that makes me a journalist.

Which now qualifies me for douchebag status in Detroit.

Brian has done a tremendous job in creating, building and maintaing a great site. There are dozens of excellent, well-informed writers that make frequent and vital contributions. I think there are far more informed knowledgeable fans here than on any "pay for" site I've either visited or belonged to.

As to the local MSM, it's rather sad, given their advantages, this site is recognized as being far more informative, honest and more respected as a research address than the local rags. They should be ashamed, but hey, it's not dishonest to say they've been surpassed in terms of providing M football news worthy of reading by those mentioned above in large part due to the fact, the contributors described above are of higher moral character and possess more integrity than almost all those paid to at least pretend to interject these traits in their writing.

Congratulations to Brain and all other long-time contributors. This site is the best UM site I've found.

CBS ESPN et al should be congratulated for being associated with MGoBlog. Why should we be happy to get recognition from the MSM when we have completely transcended them?

<br>I don't say this to be arrogant or snarky. There is almost no one writing for a major MSM outlet that has the consistent insight into Michigan football that MGoBlog does. Everyone that really matters knows this, I think.

I've recently been told that mgoblog can be readily replaced by ten bloggers waiting in the wings. This news doesn't jibe with what I was told ergo, you guys are wrong. So, there.
