Never thought I’d be here, at this point, with this psyche, during a season of Michigan Football.  There’s a third of season left that includes a cripple fight in West Lafayette, a 10-hour trek to Minneapolis, a one way ticket to Hell on Earth, and just one more game in the “friendly” confines of Michigan [...]

Finally…the pictures from the tailgate prior to Little Brother beating up on Big Brother are ready and waiting for you to enjoy.  Seems like we were having such a good time.  I haven’t smiled since.  Maybe we can find solace in West Lafayette.  I mean, seriously, we can’t lose ALL of our games, can we?
Pictures [...]

Sorry, don’t have it in me yet.  Try back tomorrow.
Perhaps you can take solace in the fact that the basketball team is ranked 8th in the Big Ten, which is probably one place ahead of the football team (just threw up in my mouth).
Meanwhile, you might want to check in over here.

Kinda sucks, but we’ve been awfully lucky with the weather so far this season, so we’ll see what happens.  Either way, this probably puts a damper on the formal theme, but we’re moving forward regardless.  Attire for Saturday is Sunday best…SEC style.  On the preliminary menu…ham, cheesy potatoes, country fried steak and eggs, penne with [...]

An excerpt from the Michigan Daily:
“I was just laughing. I thought it was funny. They got excited. Sometimes you get your little brother excited when you’re playing basketball and you let him get the lead. Then you just come and take it back.”-Mike Hart on Nov. 3, 2007
As much as you try to escape [...]

Off the topic of Michigan Football and the beat down we are about to put on Michigan Agricultural College, this happened about 50 yards from where the UMTailgate.com flag resides when it’s not a gameday.
In the words of Keanu Reeves…  whoa.
Mlive story is here.  In a twist of fate, the on scene reporter was Jo [...]

Hey.  How are you?  I often think about how tough this must be for you, riding this out, knowing what you know, and trying to find a way to articulate it at press conferences without betraying the previous regime or belittling the current players.  I think about how the words “you can’t make chicken salad [...]

It’s not easy to accept, but losing to Penn State every 12 years is something I’m willing to deal with.  In addition, now that the game is over I have no problem putting my money behind the Nittany Lion horse as they attempt to get Grandpa Joe one last championship.  This is especially true since [...]

Recovering from 72 hours of RV…and going to bed.  I’ll catch up with reviews and pics and such on Monday.  Remember…no wearing green this week.

Packed.
Ready.
State College…I’m coming.  We’re coming.
Last time you beat Michigan, I couldn’t legally drink.
Thank god I can drink on Saturday….
….so I can toast to your tears.
