Come one, come all to Fraser’s Pub this Saturday for the annual off-season tailgate reunion. Start time is set for 2pm. We will have some drinks and some food, but there will also be some business on the table. The planning committee will have a full session, and we will decide on [...]

I slept from 3 to 9…(that’s pm) on Sunday, which should alert you to the fact that my mental clock is not quite right. Therefore, enjoy this bullet list roundup of the world around the internets that you missed while realizing that you are never going to be able to go back and change [...]

If this turns out to be true…even a little bit…we need a new Senior Associate AD.
Maybe they should take a cue from previous Michigan coach Lloyd Carr, who according to a source close to the situation worked behind the scenes to help Boren obtain his scholarship release from Michigan. Carr even assured Boren that Ohio [...]

Da da da da-da da…do.

Wow, I’ve got some catching up to do.
For now, get ready for a rivalry on ice…tonight at 7pm…ESPN2. (UPDATE: That’s 7pm local…9pm for us in Ann Arbor) The Godfather, who does his grocery shopping in South Bend, will be using tonights game to get past the weekday drinking restrictions imposed by the Godmother.
More to [...]

Hey all…I’m on vacation until Wednesday night, but just wanted to give congratulations to our winners:

Jake Porritt takes 1st
Kristen T takes 2nd
Johnny Cleveland takes 3rd

Well done. See you all next year.

If nothing else comes from the “transition” that has resulted in the unceremonious exit of Justin Boren, it’s that whatever was going on before Rodriguez was not good.
