Reports are in that Mike Massey is out for the season. This makes the Carson Butler reinstatement a stellar move by Lloyd. Without Butler, we are looking at walk-ons, has-beens, and never-will-bes…you know, like Mike Massey.
Michigan will become the first team to be a part of the BTN hat-trick, with 3 consecutive games [...]

The Monday injury report, which is often just ripped straight from the Angel over at the Detroit News, was named after injury prone Ryan Mundy.  You might be surprised to find that Ryan Mundy transferred to West Virginia, using the odd NCAA rule that allows a graduated athlete with eligibility remaining to transfer without penalty to [...]

How many people have asked you today how pissed off you are about the BCS championship game? No less than 15 for me. Well, I’m not pissed…I’m just disappointed. To be honest, I don’t have any emotion left…November 18th took it all out of me.
It’s time to refocus whatever anger and pain [...]

Less than 5 days remain before a small group of UMTailgaters will venture to Hell on Earth. I am caught halfway between “giddy with anticipation” and “scared shitless of what the fans are capable of.” Either way, I am worthless at work and sleepless at home. It’s not because I’m caught [...]

Ahhh yes. Sometimes people forget just who is the Webmaster of UMTailgate.com. It’s a shame to have to sometimes slap a man so that he remembers his place in the hierarchy of the tailgate…and tailgate website. I neither have the time nor the inclination to tear down the fragile soul of Goody, [...]

It’s Halloween Eve, known around these parts as Devil’s Night. I say “these parts” because in my neverending journey to learn something new everyday, I found out that Devil’s Night is native to the state of Michigan, and more specifically Detroit. Nice! All this time I thought that people nationwide were destructing [...]

The story hit locally, and is now getting some national pub, all because some girl couldn’t keep her mouth shut about a scuffle over some car keys. It seems the rumors from last week were true, and Adrian Arrington was arraigned on the Wednesday before the Iowa game for a domestic spat with his [...]

I’m skipping the weekend roundup to pack. So surf the internet your damn self.
Injury Report:

Bass / Kolodziej : Season
Tyler Ecker: Ankle, did not make trip to Happy Valley, status uncertain
Mario Manningham: Knee, successful surgery…I’m guessing he’ll return for Indiana

That’s all…I’m on vacation this week and leaving admin duties to Johnny Cleveland. You behave [...]

Coming off quite possibly the greatest day in Michigan/Detroit sports since Woodson won the Heisman and Michigan upset Duke back in ‘97, it took mere moments…and a shady Lloyd presser…to sober you up quickly heading in to Penn State. Mike Hart and Mario Manningham, who by my gorilla math make up about 95% of [...]

I have come to the crossroads my friends, and I have chosen a new path. It happened tonight. I have approached this football season with such cautious optimism that I have come close on several occasions to physically holding my lips together with my index finger and thumb when inspired to start [...]
