Day of week and time of day will have a big impact. 2 hour cushion should be plenty of time though.
I flew out of Macnamera this past Sunday night and returned Wednesday night. Long lines for checking bags and normal TSA (I have pre-check) on Sunday night. The terminal itself was busier than I expected too. Lines for seating in restaurants and lots of gates with people waiting.
Coming back Wednesday afternoon was the opposite. Terminal looked pretty normal and walking past the main security line on my way out things looked to be moving pretty smooth.
Not a math or salary cap expert, but this is my understanding.
The 3.6 average is as if the the signing bonus as if it was to be spread out over the four year period, but in reality it's paid up front. Say he retires after the second year he would owe the last two years of his signing bonus back to the team (think Calvin Johnson with the Lions).
I don’t think he was hinting the Michigan game is in jeopardy because of this. They already missed Maryland, this week makes two, and MSU next weekend would be the third.
We received an update over the weekend informing us of mandator work from home until at least April 6th. Anyone who required equipment or personal items from the office needed to retrieve it by noon today.
We have a pretty lenient policy about working remotely, so this isn't too much of a change.
I've seen the ads running for it on ESPN channels all week, but will say the advertising has been less than other 30 for 30's. Part 1 will air tonight and Part 2 is on Feb. 6th.
I wish they were doing these in the Royal Oak area, in addition to Ann Arbor, like they did last year. It was a ton of fun and by the last few weeks they’d almost outgrown the space.
Spath aside, if anyone is on the fence about going they definitely should. Devin does a fantastic job of translating the chalk talk into a language everyone can understand.
Normally, I'm out cold by 10pm and up around 530. Thanks to a flexible work schedule and the ability to work from home a few times each month, I don't have to worry too much about late starts for games/events.
Same here. I can't tell if it's because espnnews isn't apart of the cable package I'm logged in under of if they haven't brought the english broadcast online.
The coach's room is usually good to watch, apparently they wanted to ruin it with the MNF crew. I also like to watch the All 22 broadcast, but wish you could overlay the sound with one of the commentaries.
I don't really care who wins, but keeping my fingers crossed for a competitive game throughout. The last thing I want to see is a blowout, either way, in the last game of the year.
I think the 2016 bowl season was when it became a "thing". That year Fournette and McCaffrey, who were both dealing with some type of injury, announced they would be sitting out to focus on the draft.
27 M (It feels like the opening of a dating profile...)
2. On average how many UM football games do you watch each year?
Every football game and basketball game. Softball and baseball games when their televised as well. Attend multiple home games for each sport each too.
3. Does your significant other give you grief about it or are they cool with it?
Yes and yes. I made it pretty clear from the beginning of our relationship that Saturday's and most Sunday's are for football. Obviously there's some give and take involved, but she is very understanding of my love of sports and I'm very thankful for it.
2019 commit Zach Charbonnet's high school, Oaks Christian (CA), will be playing at 10pmEST on ESPNU.

I've attended both weeks in Royal Oak so far and plan to continue going, as long as my schedule allows.
I'd echo everything that OP presented and add that both weeks have turned into more than just film review. The first week (after the western game) there maybe 8 of us who showed up and DG/Spath were more than happy to sit down for one-on-one conversations. Last night there was a larger crowd, so not as much personalized interaction, but it made for a better overall atmosphere.
Also, anyone who might question if this is an event for the family and/or significant other will be happy to know there have been families/wives/girlfriends both weeks.
I'm definitely interested in the MGoNight at the Pistons event. I'm sure a few friends who are readers, but don't comment/post, would be interested as well.

If Michigan is #1 they have their choice of location

So in reality the yearly breakdown is:
Total = 13,644,833
Was really surprised they went with an F1. Seemed like pulling him down intentionally by both shoulders would be excessive contract.
He’s already coaching at a place where just being in the playoff conversation is being successful

I would love to see Caris get moved in the offseason. Like others have said, he'll be the odd man out next year.
Maybe a team like Memphis who appears to be up and coming could be a good landing spot.
1. Cookie(cake). For birthdays we always get a large cookie with frosting as the decoration.
2. Car. Multiple friends have trucks so I can always call in a favor.
3. Jeans
4. Water
5. One on christmas eve and the rest on christmas morning
6. To see if the grass was really greener on the other side

Yes please
I'll be there! mgoblue.com sent out an email last week for $15 lower bowl tickets. Hopefully that attracted a lot of fans
Got stuck working this weekend, but this is a great way to waste the last few hours of the work night. Hopefully they can hold this lead.

Lavert Hill. Maybe a fumble forced fumble or interception early in the game.
Just added the banner to adblock
Here's the breakdown from this morning. Orlovsky does a fantastic job breaking it down.

Cool, didn't expect to see a post about Rutgers tonight.
Today or 2007?
Hall of Fame…
Thanks!

I haven't been this pumped for a game in awhile
Big time PITA, unless you enjoy spending time sitting in the car.
YESSSS!!!
Also live streaming on YouTube. Channing Stribling is #30 for the Express and Ty Isaac is #32 for the Iron.

I'll be there!

It's up against the Sunday AFC Wild Card game, so it should be sorted out by tomorrow night or Monday morning.
I want to make five new accounts for the sole purpose of up voting this post.

Anyone been able to find a stream?
1. How old are you and what is your gender?
2. On average how many UM football games do you watch each year?
3. Does your significant other give you grief about it or are they cool with it?
This series almost has to end in some crazy fashion based on everything that's already happened.
Shout out to whoever told Devin they read the UFR's on MGoblog, that might have been the highlight of the night for me.

Anyone else think the blood on Bush's arm looks like the jumpman logo?
I think you go back to Mike Hart (freshman) and Ernest Sharzor (junior but declared for the draft) in 2004.
He was definitely in the forward throwing motion
LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
Is this your way of asking...without directly asking...?

Thank you! This makes the viewing the board much more pleasant.
