Born in East Lansing….
Went to school in East Lansing…
Choked like a Spartan.

Let me make a short list…
1) Played a home at home with Texas in football
2) Player a home at home with USC in football
3) Won “the game” 6 consecutive times
4) Has a modern day “fab 5″ (really 6) recruiting class coming in for hoops next year…and they don’t even need it (BTW…66-55, Buckeyes over Michigan [...]

Brian at MGoBlog covers examples of other teams with somewhat similar offenses to those alleged to Michigan.
Wojo reminds us that it is all about winning, and that the pressure is on for Coach.
Genuinely Sarcastic covers Morgan Trent’s comments on the allegations…and how Dwayne Jarret just caught another pass.
Dr. Saturday breaks down the charges, and does [...]

So…twitter.  I know most people think that it’s a website where you do something akin to updating your facebook status, and that’s where it ends.  But let me tell you, once you build a group of people in your feed, like esteemed bloggers, media members, and celebrities, you get a really nice ticker of things [...]

In case you stop by and things look weird, please be patient as I’m making a few small cosmetic upgrades to the greatest tailgate home on these here internets.  Pictures are also being reorganized…so in case you’re looking for a classic of Goody’s tattoo, you may be out of luck for a little while.

Michigan will hold a press conference at 1pm to discuss the results of the NCAA investigation of “practicegate.”  MGoBlog will liveblog it, so extend your lunch and head over there.  Coleman, Brandon, and Coach are slated to speak.

Here’s what you may have missed around the internets while you fantasized about working for Sterling-Cooper (yes, I’m now on a Mad Men kick).

There’s a website called NIT-ology, and it prognosticates the NIT field.  Michigan isn’t in it.
Athlon has the recruiting class rankings, and Michigan comes in 13th in the country, 2nd in the Big [...]

The Victors Rally: A Celebration of Michigan Football took place on Sunday at the Michigan Theater.  Speaking on behalf of the current regime were Larry Foote, Gary Moeller, Jim Brandstatter, and Jerry Hanlon…among others.  Last year we were “All-In,” so I guess that makes this year “The Re-Buy.”  And while it may seem way too [...]

The cagers fell to 2009 NIT champion Penn State tonight.  Right.  The turning point came when the student section began chanting “WE OWN PENN STATE” in Zombie Nation fashion when Penn State had the lead.  Never underestimate the stupidity of an arena DJ.  That improves the Nittany Lion’s record to 10-16 on the season overall, [...]
