That's good enough to hit…

That's good enough to hit 5th for the Tigers

I loved Mike as a player and I love having him as a coach. I was beyond thrilled when Harbaugh brought him home.

During rough times I always like to remember these Keith Whitley lyrics:

"I fought with the devil, got down on his level, But I never gave in so he gave up on me."

Why does the name Austin…

Why does the name Austin Meek seem familiar?

How dare you post something…

How dare you post something optimistic! Don't you know we're supposed to freak out about everything that happens!?

God, it's just like when we hired a little-known defensive assistant from the Ravens to be our DC back in 2021. That was a TERRIBLE choice and nothing good at all ever came from it.

Don't give these people any…

Don't give these people any ideas.

Wow, gone way too early. I heard he'd been sick but this is still surprising. Last I'd heard he was doing better and was planning to tour again.

Awesome. Abother "let's bash Warde" thread.

Here's my worthless two…

Here's my worthless two cents:

I'm really getting tired of Warde Manuel posts. Jim's gone, Sherrone is in charge, and Warde isn't getting fired. I'm not saying he's right or wrong, but that's the way it is.

It's time to move on and support our new coach.

Dan Miller sucks. Lions…

Dan Miller sucks. He's like listening to Blaha call a Spartan game - if his team gets a first down it's the biggest play ever. If the other team gets a 99-yard punt retrurn for a touchdown he calls it like his dog just died. Lions never should have fired Mark Champion. Or Brandy for that matter.

Congratulations,  Sherrone…

Congratulations,  Sherrone. You are THE football coach, and you have my unwavering support.

That and $2 will get you a USA Today.

*EDIT: I just looked and the USA Today is now $3. What a rip off.

And on this blog, more…

And on this blog, more whining.

What an original idea for a post. I don't think this has ever been discussed here before.

My sources close to Harbaugh…

My sources close to Harbaugh say the possibility he goes to the NFL is real, but that he could still stay at Michigan.

Also reports that Vrabel…

Also reports that Vrabel will also have a second interview with the Falcons next week.

Bottom line: we still have no fucking clue what is going on.

If he's using their toilets…

If he's using their toilets already that's probably a bad sign ...

Man, why would you want to…

Man, why would you want to go from a college team that draws 110,000 every week to an NFL team that couldn't draw flies to a carcass?

I sincerely appreciate your…

I sincerely appreciate your offer, but the point is I am now being asked to pay for something which, until this season, I always got for free. A media conglomerate and the most powerful sports league in the world, both worth billions of dollars, are holding me upside down by my ankles and shaking every penny out of me they can get.

Any way you slice it, this is a huge middle finger to sports fans while these giant companies get a few more bucks to throw on the pile.

Please forgive me if I am not jumping at the chance to subscribe to a streaming service with a handful of sports events I might watch and a lineup of worthless sitcoms and boring dramas I wouldn't look at if the only other show available was a test pattern.

Fuck. Peacock.

Fuck. Peacock.

And fuck the NFL for putting money over fans.

There's a real possibility I…

There's a real possibility I could win the lottery this week. It may be extremely thin, but it is possible.

I'm not saying Harbaugh will stay or go, either could happen. But the way these guys word this stuff, using so many qualifiers, suits two purposes. One, it lets them sound like they have something new to report when they really don't, and two it ensures they are never wrong.

I was kinda hoping for that,…

I was kinda hoping for that, too. But stuff could still happen today. Meetings can always be canceled.

Either way, maybe JJ will have some good news for us.

Every NFL hire that ISN'T…

Every NFL hire that ISN'T James Joseph Harbaugh is a good thing.

That was my first thought. I…

That was my first thought. I'll bet he regrets accepting a lateral move to MSU now, considering he could have moved up to Washington.

You know what worries me is…

You know what worries me is that Michigan didn't put their 2021 spring game on TV. I'm also really concerned about how we didn't throw the ball enough during our 31-10 win over Washington in 2021.

I started coming here during…

I started coming here during the Dave Brandon debacle (kudos to this site for that, because we probably don't get Harbaugh if he's still here), then I got hooked during the ensuing coaching search.

"Oh my God, Carter scored!"

"Oh my God, Carter scored!"

I'll see your Ufer and raise you Frank Beckmann's call of Woodson's end zone interception against OSU.

"Polish off the Heisman ... "

Hard to think of a bigger…

Hard to think of a bigger one. For pure excitement, maybe Roundtree's game winner against Notre Dame? Or Braylon's fourth quarter against MSU? Pehaps Henne to Manningham against Penn State?

But based on what was at stake, I'd say the game-tying drive and then the goal line stand may be the greatest Michigan football moments of my lifetime.

Until Monday.

This works pretty well. I've…

This works pretty well. I've used it several times. But there is a delay of a minute or two.

Speaking of bad Rose Bowl…

Speaking of bad Rose Bowl reffing, I'll never forget the non-call when Woodson was tackled before he could intercept a pass on WSU's final drive on Jan. 1, 1998.

But who cares, we still won. Let's do it again today, boys!

I hate hyperbole in…

I hate hyperbole in reporting. In fact, I think it's the stupidest thing in the history of the world.

Prime rib, mashed potatoes…

Prime rib, mashed potatoes and gravy, cooked carrots, rolls, and cake.

And whiskey.

Go Bue.

Yeah if Warde is the…

Yeah if Warde is the sticking point than give him the bum's rush. A great football coach is hard to find; administrative figure heads are a dime a dozen.

Maybe eight for a dozen with inflation.

Ohtani just got $700 million…

Ohtani just got $700 million. Can I have some?

I've thought of doing this…

I've thought of doing this before and I am glad someone else did it. This site provides good coverage of U-M athletics and was a great respite when the national media were losing their minds over this Signgate bullshit.

We should stop and think for a moment about how this football team has not lost a regular season game in OVER TWO CALENDER YEARS. That level of domination is unheard of in college football. What a great group of players and coaches we have had.

I have been an avid fan for about 25 years and have experienced the worst of times and, now, the best of times. What an extreme joy these last three seasons have been. And how great it is to have this site accompanying us through it all.

Florida State got fucked. I…

Florida State got fucked. I mean, they are UNDEFEATED. What the hell more do you have to do to get in? And for TWO one-loss teams to get in over them? That's a big middle finger to them.

What a joke. The SEC ass suckage continues.

Given everything these guys…

Given everything these guys has gone through this season, I have never been prouder of a group of kids than I am of this 2023 Michigan Wolverines football team.

Aw, damn! I forgot next year…

Aw, damn! I forgot next year is a leap year!

... and it's gonna be at…

... and it's gonna be at least 364 more.

He may not be on the…

He may not be on the sidelines but this is still his team and his game plan.

As far as I'm concerned, Jim Harbaugh isn't just A football coach. He is THE football coach.

Go Blue.

BEAT OHIO.

I think his crusade at that…

I think his crusade at that time was more against RichRod than it was against Michigan.

Still, it was a lot of BS.

Only one game I care about.

Only one game I care about.

One would think they'll have…

One would think they'll have to at least ask him.
