Mine shipped this morning. Should be here Wednesday. I didn’t go nuts. Just tshirts and hats for the family. Pumped to get it!

Just like 50 cent said

Well, give it to him.

Well, give it to him.

Edit: Also, if this is true regarding the 3 member panel, all of this smoke about Harbaugh and Manuel not getting along definitely has a fire to go along with it. Just fucking make Harbaugh head coach and Co-AD. Grants him autonomy and decision making. 

Whew, some great news to…

Whew, some great news to help lift the mood this cold ass monday morning. 

I mean, that's what you and…

I mean, that's what you and I want. I love college football as much as anyone, but for some, the real deal is the NFL. Jim played in it, coached in it and took the niners to the brink of the NFL's ultimate prize. The dude brought us out of the darkest period of my fandom and brought home a national championship to the team I love. My opinion matters for nothing, but he can do whatever he wants. 

Every year that he has looked at the pros, we have all bitched about the timing and hurting recruiting, etc.. yet we have only continued to get better every year. 

He gets a free pass from me forever. If he wants to come back, great. If he wants to leave, he's left Michigan FAR better off than he found it. Couldn't be more thankful for the last 3 years as a fan.

Much less pleasurable for me. I watched Odunze pick up a first down on a screen play several times before I figured it out...

I lurked from 2010 until 2014. After leaving staff at the U and moving to South Dakota (happy wife...), I finally joined. Been one hell of a fun ride. 

Never Forget!

Harbaugh to…

Never Forget!

D. Brown to Kolesar in the 1988 Hall of Fame Bowl. I was a young impressionable grade school kid. I pretended I was Kolesar many times in the backyard after that catch. 

"SHERRONE MOORE WENT FOR IT…

"SHERRONE MOORE WENT FOR IT ON 4TH AND SHORT THREE TIMES BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT PLAYERS WHO CHOOSE MICHIGAN GO THERE TO DO - TO SHINE IN BIG MOMENTS IN THE BIGGEST GAMES POSSIBLE."

Damn, that is just awesome. I fucking love this team. 

I actually wouldn't mind…

I actually wouldn't mind staying at number 2. Probably avoids potential Bama, Georgia, OSU matchups in the first round. With that being said, if FSU sneaks in at 4, we should definitely be #1.

Obviously that’s what we all…

Obviously that’s what we all want. Sam’s great, but unless Jim himself has spilled the beans, which I doubt, he is probably the only one that currently knows what he’s gonna do. If you’re reading the blog tonight, please sign that extension coach. 

At this point, it seems…

At this point, it seems fairly obvious that there is an absolute connection between OSU and the shit storm that has occurred over the last month. Clearly this is a hit job. Unfortunately, I don’t think anyone outside this blog (and obviously the university) cares. Trying to have a rational discussion about what is actually known and the vast amount of information that is unknown with anyone but a Michigan fan, typically ends poorly. 
 

At this point I don’t give a shit about the perception of the program on the outside. The perception of lack of integrity couldn’t be more false. A fucking firm was hired to dig up dirt and the best they could come up with is this maniac Stalions (which apparently is done at EVERY other program). I’m actually pretty impressed and pretty proud of this program that Jim built. It is clean. Couldn’t give a shit if anyone else ever agrees with me. Just fucking win on Saturday. Win 1001 for Harbaugh

Dude, I was refreshing the page like a mouse trying to get coke. Kind of embarrassing to be honest.

Thank God the blog is back online. I was going through withdrawal over lunch

Fuck that entirely. If there’s a bright side, we’re hopefully gonna find out a lot of dirt on the big ten that’s been swept under the rug.

Been a while, and could use a good bang! Keep your heads up! Winning the national championship this year is gonna be extra sweet after this week! Bang bang!

Lol. If we hadnt been complete shit for the enitre Rich Rod/Hoke era, it would also be a moot point. If Bo hadnt gone 6-6 in 1984, and so on and so forth...

Actually, some great golf courses here. Sanford International is a Senior PGA event that plays at the club here. Got a nice hat that just says HAHA on it. Kinda lame, but also kinda cool.

Really looking forward to what I imagine will be a very cathartic article tomorrow. I kind of wonder if Brian also WANTS to do the UFR on this one. It’s been too damn long. Go BLUE gang.

Haha! I have the signed jersey and helmet as well. Was super happy with them till around November of 2018. At least he will always be a great Michigan player (hopefully we will still be able to say coach at some point lol). 

I have 4 Michigan framed…

I have 4 Michigan framed signed jerseys (for those interested Harbaugh, Woodson, Desmond, Brady). Be prepared to pay a shit ton for framing. 300 sounds super cheap. With the GOATs you have, go big on framing. And definitely make sure the glass is UV resistant. That's a cool collection you have. 

EDIT: I had mine framed at a highish end framing store here in Sioux Falls, but my dad has had a few done at sports memorabilia stores and they do a great job (and are significantly cheaper).

I also didn't read the article (so grain of salt here), but took this to mean that football and basketball money was being transferred to golf, volleyball, softball, swimming, etc...

Hey Seth, why are all the T-shirts still Gildan heavy cotton? Thought that was going to change. I want the “more perfect union” shirt, but I don’t want a piece of shit I won’t wear. Waiting to place my order. 

Literally one post down.

Also, I REALLY want to watch football this fall.

As a physician, I am very…

As a physician, I am very middle of the road politically, and I am all about capitalism. I am well aware that some highly paid CEOs and administrators are taking paycuts (mind you, these are hugely advertised and marketed). My personal productivity has been down nearly 75% over the last 8 weeks - which means patients are not being seen for conditions which could have dramatic implications on their health. I have watched our nurses have their hours cut until they are furloughed. Our registration team and other ancillary staff has been cut to the degree that we cannot field calls or triage appropriately. 

All of this comes in the setting of the "admin" saying they will continue to take care of their "employees", while not one single dollar of their income has been affected. And that income is not insignificant. The article you site is nice, but 10% of 5mil ain't that big of a pay-cut...sorry. In my income bracket, I am going to be just fine. But, there is no way you can tell me that a nurse making 22/hour who relies on that money to feed their kids, who is now working less than half of their normal hours shouldn't be a bit pissed off that the administration can't offer at least an olive branch of a small paycut. Sorry, I am a bit salty about this one. 

EDIT: probably should have saved my original comment for the OT post on administrative costs in health care lol! 

This could and should be…

This could and should be applied to every industry in the US. Work for a large hospital system. Docs, nurses, ancillary staff all taking huge financial hits. You know who's not? The CEO, the executive directors and all the VPs (of which there are many). Total and complete bullshit.

Lol! What is wrong with me?! Thanks for the pro-tip. Gonna work on getting Mrs. Blues in for some "bounce" time.

Second this sentiment. We have a bounce house for the basement. When they get bored bouncing, we pull it outside and it's a completely new "toy" outdoors. Also, it gives me a chance to beat my 5 yr old at wrestling - feeling pretty good about my win streak.

I have two obnoxiously large high school football rings. Never took them off as a senior, but now they are just memorabilia. I will occasionally try to sneak them on when Mrs. Blues and I go to a fancy restaurant just to embarrass her.

Anybody else pissed that this wasn't WD? Well played Davymac, well played...
