This is not a day to…

This is not a day to celebrate. We all wanted it to work out. It just didn’t. 

Now let’s go find ourselves a good coach.  

The good news here is that…

The good news here is that this season is almost over. 

Beat Indiana! 

Beat Indiana! 

I honestly hope they don’t…

I honestly hope they don’t go with the NFL’s two-feet rule for catches—but I think it’s just a matter of time before they do. 

I love the one-foot rule in college, though. 

I mean, cool—but does anyone…

I mean, cool—but does anyone remember that India did this just last year? 

Howard has insisted before…

Howard has insisted before that practices are solid, productive, etc. I just don’t see how that can be true. 

I can’t wait! I’m not sure…

I can’t wait! I’m not sure if this is possible, but I would love it if they could include some notable historical teams/stadiums, too. 

Maybe such a thing can be accomplished through the mod community, if it can’t be done in the base game. 

I’m cautiously optimistic. I just hope that the actual gameplay is nothing like Madden’s scripted/forced animation BS. 

I've long-referred to such…

I've long-referred to such men at the card racks and flower locations at Kroger on Valentine's Day morning as "the walking dead."

This was more fun under…

This was more fun under Amaker, was it not?

Hey, at least Saint…

Hey, at least Saint Valentine was a real person. Unlike, say, Saint Sweetest Day. 

Well...I usually don't care…

Well...I usually don't care about Valentine's Day much. However, this is my first one with my (relatively) new girlfriend -- my first long-term relationship since my 24-year marriage ended. So...this one means a little to me for the first time in a while. 

On tap for tonight: yoga class (something she got me into -- and it's changed my life), a late sushi dinner, and a movie. 

BTW: I started dating her on September 1, right before the 2023 Michigan football season kicked off (notably, we haven't lost a game since -- you're welcome, folks!)

Okay now. Headed for the…

Okay now. Headed for the second OT SB in history. We all remember the first one. 

Somehow, he’s always…

Somehow, he’s always unbelievably, amazingly open. He does it all the time. 

Kelce in clutch time. 

Kelce in clutch time.

Niners D sucking wind on this drive. 

Money!

(The missed XP…

Money!

(The missed XP really hurts now, of course…lotta time left.)

It’s actually a pretty…

It’s actually a pretty entertaining game. I’m not sure why any football fan wouldn’t be watching. So what if your team (whichever that may be for any given fan) isn’t in it—isn’t that the case most years? 

Great googly moogly we…

Great googly moogly we absolutely suck. 

Well, I’ll say it again: I’m…

Well, I’ll say it again: I’m just damn glad we won it all last season. Imagine making it to the NC game & losing it— and THEN all of this still happens.

 

Swedish Chefs? 

Swedish Chefs? 

And, believe it or not,…

And, believe it or not, basketball as well. 😏

If Howard can’t manage to…

If Howard can’t manage to beat Rutgers at home, well… I really don’t see another conference win this season. Honestly. 

This is absolutely pathetic. 
 

 

If I’m being perfectly…

If I’m being perfectly objective, Ohio State got screwed out of some points (potentially some Ws) in those first two matches. Fuck em, of course. Just saying. 

Legion of Boom 2.0 loading…

Legion of Boom 2.0 loading…

It’s amazing just how truly…

It’s amazing just how truly shitty this team becomes in 2Hs of games. They are usually quite competitive in the first half. But then it just all goes to hell—and really fast, too. 

Sweet -- Dickinson and…

Sweet -- Dickinson and Livers are back in the maize & blue tonight? 

Dug-less, you say?

Sparty…

Dug-less, you say?

Sparty by a billion.

Or perhaps only by 15.

Somewhere in there.

A gentle reminder that we're…

A gentle reminder that we're still in the same month in which we (1) beat Alabama to win the Rose Bowl, and (2) beat Washington to win a national championship.

 

 

This has probably been…

This has probably been answered elsewhere, and maybe even in great depth, but I have to ask: WHY does Michigan appear to be lagging considerably compared to other “blue blood” programs when it comes to NIL? 

Shouldn’t we pursue Mike…

Shouldn’t we pursue Mike Elko—because he’s the head coach of DUKE? 
 

Okay, that was stupid (but so is this entire thread) 🤣

“Root” is a strong word. I…

“Root” is a strong word. I will pay a little more attention to the Chargers next season. Sure. Other than that? I’m not sure I really care much what Jim does or does not do at the next level. 

I mean, I saw the same…

I mean, I saw this same sentiment articulated elsewhere, but it bears repeating: no matter what Warde did, the one thing he could not give Jim is a Lombardi trophy. Jim wants to win the Super Bowl. That’s the bottom line. 

Are they gonna pull off a…

Are they gonna pull off a Day wetdream and hang 100 on us? 

We have a former president…

We have a former president on our team. Put him in, I say. 

Shock the world, boys! Or…

Shock the world, boys! Or something. I don’t really care. 

Michigan is now 7-11, eh?…

Michigan is now 7-11, eh? Fitting, because their defense leaves opponents open all day long. 

Yeesh. I think I check the…

Yeesh. I think I checked the score just two minutes ago or so, and we had it down to a one-point deficit. And now it’s 11, just like that. This team can certainly go to shit in a hurry. 

You would think that the…

You would think that the fact that Michigan is putting its entire starting offensive line in the NFL next season would be a selling point, though—eh? 

Chiefs-Bills is gonna be one…

Chiefs-Bills is gonna be one to remember (again!) methinks. 

I sincerely hope that the Lions game is a snoozefest. 

The Eagles choking was the…

The Eagles choking was the easiest thing in the world to predict. Just look at the “December to remember” they had, and the continued collapse was easy to see. 

That said? From the perspective of the Detroit Lions, I am rather glad it’s the Bucs and not Philly. 

Let’s get this done, Detroit! 

Woo hoo!!!!

Woo hoo!!!!

That was Big McLargehuge,…

That was Big McLargehuge, right there! 

Puka is killing them. 

Puka is killing them.

Or a nice strip sack by Hutch. 

Yep. I watched it. They…

Yep. I watched it. They certainly did. I actually started to feel bad for the fans in the stands.  

That really wasn’t the best…

That really wasn’t the best time for the crappiest Lions possession of the evening. 

Hold onto your butts…huge…

Hold onto your butts…huge possession coming up here. 

Nice kick, kid! 

Nice kick, kid! 

Absolutely the right…

Absolutely the right decision—and not just in retrospect. 

Unstoppable offense! Woo! 

Unstoppable offense! Woo!
