The bulk of the Michigan faithful stayed around longer than I expected them to, no doubt clinging to the hope that Tate might have another rabbit left in that winged hat.  The one redeeming quality of losses of this nature?  When games are over just a couple of minutes into the second half, you have [...]

You don’t like to find yourself some stupid lucky play away from being tied at half with a far inferior opponent, but it’s important to keep in mind that after EMU tied it up at 10-10, Michigan went on a 35-7 run to finish the game.  They also gashed the Eagles for 380 yards rushing, [...]

Going into Saturday’s game, I really had no opinion on the outcome.  I didn’t know, on any level, what was going to happen when Michigan took the field.  I mean, I knew what I wanted to happen, but I was probably more preoccupied with what I didn’t want to happen.  I didn’t want the euphoric [...]

1) Piped in Music: What would it take for me to convince you that piped in music is a great idea?  If I said it would help us win just one more game, would you get on board?  I’ve been to every Big Ten venue.  And yes, there was a time when I mocked those [...]

I’ve always been a little uneasy about the QBForce website.  I remember looking at it for the first time back when Tate was scanning all of his offer letters and posting them on there.  Sure, there are players out there that think they are the shit, and they talk some trash or seem smug or [...]

Yes, I enjoyed my unannounced UMTailgate vacation, thanks.
The phrase “these are the times that try men’s souls” is probably a bit dramatic when used to describe feelings about a football program.  I’m not worried about how much more of this that I can take.  I AM worried about how much more of it YOU can [...]

We’ve offered.  However, I am a bit confused by this…
Since Paulus did not redshirt for the basketball team, he has one year of eligibility remaining in another sport. And since he will complete his degree in four years, he can go to graduate school elsewhere and compete immediately.
I thought that grad school thing was a [...]

Just when you thought we were done with football until Freshman arrival, Michigan made the news by having a point guard visit football practice.  Greg Paulus wants to play football, and after visiting with the Green Bay Packers, he set his sights higher and knocked on RichRod’s door.  Listen, this ain’t gonna happen.  I’m really [...]

Down.  Dead.  That’s the story that sells the papers, the magazines, or has them clicking stories on the internets.  Michigan’s fall from grace is a happy tale for those outside of the fanbase.  Many have been waiting a lifetime for this moment, pining for a chance to throw back into the face of a Michigan [...]
