I think regardless of the outcome games against ND MSU PSU OSU WISCONSIN are gonna cause this. Hopefully it’s because of all the joyous cheers we want to type. GO BLUE!!

This is Meta. No worries.

Yes, it will. It briefly went 404 because there were rumors that Tarik Black got hurt and then people mentioned Rashan Gary. 

Rumors, mind you. On a Sunday night before work.

It'll go 404 for at least a bit if we win; It will be a massive 404 followed by a prolonged meltdown if we lose.

I have to work Saturday night and plan to watch the game later but if I head to mgoblog after work early Sunday morning, I'll see either muppets or a locked down board.

I'd like to think that they would pay for elastic ISP service, but I seriously doubt that HUEL made the SW compatible.  So probably, yes, a 502 error will rear its ugly head.

My Delorean is in the shop, so I cannot tell you. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!

I will be abstaining from the board Saturday starting at 7:00 till maybe Sunday at noon. People get a little to emotional over ever little play. It makes it a little difficult to follow any kind of rational discord.

Speaking of difficult to follow, I wonder if 3.0 is ready to handle a game day thread from an interaction standpoint?  It's already difficult enough to follow board comments and figure out who's responding to who, so a game day thread seems very interesting.

Add in the fact of the first game of the season, the dozens of snowflake and hot-take threads that are sure to follow and this should make for a real test of this site's backbone.

My friend is vacationing in Sweden this week. She sent me a picture of her dinner, which could have been from a U.S.-based Ikea for all I know, but the photo included a bottle of Flader Blom, which instantly made me think of the Swedish Chef. Therefore, my prediction for Saturday night is...

MUPPETS!!!!

P.S. I've been imitating the Swedish Chef ever since, bork, bork. Speaking of swedes and M-ND games brings flashbacks of Dennis Bergkamp. Folks, we ARE winning this game. Flaben dee Bol.

P.P.S. My first successful youtube embed of the MGo3.0 era. Yep, I'm ready for Saturday. (The true test will be if I can repeat this.)

Seems like this blog is no longer cutting edge. 

I have a couple other sites I check out first, or at least at about same time as this one. 

What is this boards strongest appeal at this time? I’m not trying to be a jerk, but for recruiting, interviews, breaking news, I think there are better options.  

I will check out UFR
