There’s no hiding my extreme fandom for the greatest Ohio State running back in history.  Immediately you are thinking…OMG, a Michigan fan likes Archie Griffin?  Nope.  I have nothing but disdain for him and his two Heismans.  So, Eddie George?  Ha.  Don’t think so.  I’ll see your 104 yards and raise you Biakabutuka’s 313.  My [...]

It was a buyer’s market outside of Crisler tonight.  Turns out Purdue was the freebie end of a buy-one get-one promo put on by the masterminds in the athletic department several weeks ago.  Average Joe-the-Sometimes-Fan sat home listening to the rain while holding a free ticket, pondering whether or not to make the trip to [...]

Okay, first things first.  Megan Fox is single.  That’s the only stimulus package this nation needs.
Brian Austin Green has to be on suicide watch.
Adam Rittenburg caught up with new defensive coordinator Greg Robinson as part of his spring practice interview series.  Greg no doubt found a bargin home here in the state of Michigan, he’s [...]

If you want your blood to boil, chew on this post from the land of sibling marriage…
Three years ago, they were 11-0 and ranked #2 in the nation.  The words “National Championship” were being used in their vocabulary….

LIVE!  From the #1 college sports town in America, where I’m still desperately seeking a McRib…
News out of the NFL combine…take a moment and check out bench press reps in the defensive lineman category.  That’s TT at the top.  Thanks Mike.
Meanwhile, MGoBlog’s own Brian made another successful appearance in the “real media,” putting in some [...]

The planning committee has spoken, and the 2009 UMTailgate.com Winter Reunion will occur on Saturday, March 14th.  It will (hopefully) be a busy day in Michigan sports, as Spring practice will have just begun, the CCHA tournament will be in full swing, and the Big Ten basketball tournament will have two semifinal games, one of [...]

According to The Daily, Steven Threet will be releasing a statement on his future as a Michigan Wolverine today.  Most likely, that means Threet will transfer, because a statement of any other kind would be really weird.  Rod-haters will site an erosion of family values.  The headlines won’t say much more than “another Wolverine transfer” [...]

Back on January 12th, the weekend roundup featured the BBQ Explosion from the genius folks at BBQAddicts.  Then the New York Times picked up on it (obviously because any self respecting NY journalist reads UMTailgate.com) and I received countless emails about how we need to make our own come tailgate season.  I wholeheartedly agree, but [...]

Your green goes in the bottom drawer this week.
Wins and losses are what counts, but Michigan did put up a solid effort Saturday night in Connecticut.  We’ve played the top of the ACC, the top of the Big East, and the top of the Pac-10.  We beat two of them.  Now we need to take [...]
