Game Week Posbang
The wait.
It's a feature, not a bug.
Football is a game of waiting. Waiting for routes to break and for blocks to set. Waiting for each play to run. Waiting through commercials and halftime.
Waiting for a week between games. Time to marinate in the last game and build anticipation for the next one.
And waiting for 8 full months from the end of one season to the beginning of another. Time to expunge any sour taste in the mouth. Time to explore other sports, other activities. To enjoy winter, spring, and summer.
Time to build the hunger. To consume the slow trickle of training camp rumors. To click on old highllights and new hype videos. Time to remember the noise of the crowd and the thrill of the touchdown.
Time to get excited for football again.
It's game week. The wait is almost over.
Football is coming.

Beautiful. Simply beautiful!

SRJK - this is awesome stuff. No better way to bring in game week than a middle of the night gem like this.
Let’s make this a special season, go blue!
August 26th, 2019 at 4:14 AM ^
Looking forward to mgoblog's annual content avalanche
August 26th, 2019 at 7:16 AM ^
Yep no work will get done until next week! Let’s gooooooooooo!!!!!
August 26th, 2019 at 7:32 AM ^
My boss called me on Saturday to let me know she'll be off most of this week and that I'll have to cover for her. Little does she know that I'll barely be doing my own job, much less hers, this week.
The anticipation is delicious.
August 26th, 2019 at 4:23 AM ^
Sorry I’m new here, is a posbang a thread where we upvote posts to help give each other more mgoblog points ?
August 26th, 2019 at 5:21 AM ^
Yes. Random question - Are you happy with our recruiting?
August 26th, 2019 at 5:49 AM ^
I haven’t kept up with the upcoming class but I’m very happy with the current freshman class. Lots of talent at key positions
August 26th, 2019 at 5:56 AM ^
Congrats, you've passed the Maizen CAPTCHA. Glad to have you on board!
August 26th, 2019 at 5:58 AM ^
Thanks, glad to be here!
August 26th, 2019 at 9:38 AM ^
Yep, pretty straight forward.
August 26th, 2019 at 5:49 AM ^
i wasn't going to post, but after reading SRJK's OP, i'll just leave this here:
go blue!
August 26th, 2019 at 6:22 AM ^
Thanks for that. That might be the best intro ever. That honestly gives me goose bumps and makes me tear up even though I have seen it so many times.
August 26th, 2019 at 6:51 AM ^
Rumour had it he was Rumsey House, West Quad, just like me! At least that's what our RA told us.
If you're wondering, my voice is at least 2 octaves higher so they did not sort on that attribute.
August 26th, 2019 at 7:07 AM ^
Holy hell, this fires me up every time. Thank you!!!
(Sort of wish I wouldn't have seen it until Thursday or Friday though....)
August 26th, 2019 at 7:54 AM ^
F***K ya!!
August 26th, 2019 at 9:15 AM ^
I love that. Thanks for posting it!!!!!
August 26th, 2019 at 9:57 AM ^
Awww HELL YES!
Represent this Michigan of ours this week.
August 26th, 2019 at 10:44 AM ^
Jumpin Out Of My Skin!

My favorite hype video of ALL TIME. James Earl Jones best narrator ever...and I am the doctor at 0:43 seconds. Coach was honoring all of our M docs taking care of our veterans. This version was originally was shown on Armed Forces weekend in 2017.
August 27th, 2019 at 7:54 PM ^
i'm sorry more people probably didn't see your post and comment on it. are you the guy on the left, silver hair/goatee?
August 26th, 2019 at 6:15 AM ^
I can't wait for our 2AM Tuesday POSBANG!
August 26th, 2019 at 6:18 AM ^
Glad I have something to look forward to as I work through the week finally. Go Blue!
August 26th, 2019 at 6:24 AM ^
There has been a lot of banging around here recently. I guess it is that time of year.
August 26th, 2019 at 8:45 AM ^
Can’t bang too much, bang on!
August 26th, 2019 at 6:35 AM ^
My favorite time of year. The temps are starting to dip lower at night. The cool mornings where you can smell the green grass. Autumn colors with leaves starting fall. The sound of whistles in the afternoon with marching bands practicing. Friday night cheers from H.S. football games in the distance. Tailgating on Saturdays and game day traditions. Nothing like it.3 more day to A2....
Go Blue!
August 26th, 2019 at 6:46 AM ^
This brought a tear to my eye, I love you man.
August 26th, 2019 at 6:55 AM ^
I mentioned yesterday in another thread hearing “The Victors” with my morning coffee. Well that was followed up with going to work for a few hours on Sunday afternoon at house near Washtenaw Dairy. I was serenaded by the drum line for a good 45 minutes ...a little better than high school whistles.
August 26th, 2019 at 6:49 AM ^
Oh, yeah!!!
Four day work week, but it will go by as slowly as a five-day week. Let's get it off to a banging beginning.
August 26th, 2019 at 6:50 AM ^
Speaking of hype videos... I feel there were more last season. Nonetheless, football is here, so you know what's coming Wednesday and Thursday, right? UFR's!!!
Oh, wait. That's next week... Dammit!! But plenty of content coming our way this week!!!
August 26th, 2019 at 6:58 AM ^
Need a little bang to make it through the work week! Michigan football is almost here!
August 26th, 2019 at 7:03 AM ^
August 26th, 2019 at 9:22 AM ^
I ignored it yesterday. But are you seriously bringing this back up? If you need to debate it, Sunday is the first day of the week per every calendar ever. Regardless, who the fuck cares?
August 26th, 2019 at 12:28 PM ^
August 26th, 2019 at 7:12 AM ^
It's the last week of August, at least that I can see
The chill is 'round the corner, but it's here for Tennessee
Well, Middle Tennessee, the one in the center.
The one that hasn't yet be known to be much of a winner
But the Maize and Blue do not care who is coming through the door
of their house of large repute while hoping for some scores.
Because it's game week now and their work's made nigh the time,
to announce itself with speed in space and trips past the goal line.
There's Jimmy H, and Joshua G, leading on the troops,
Of Shea QB, Jon Jr, and a slew of hopeful youth.
There's Mean Don Brown, who ain't that mean, spurring on some dudes,
who will look to rip your head off but not target because that's rude.
The Wolverines are ready as their camps have all implied,
Who knows what heights they will attain but they're better than these guys.
These men from Center Tennessee will look round in despair,
Because they'll soon find out they'll want a door to get the hell out of here!
August 26th, 2019 at 7:29 AM ^
I love a nice sunny fall day and sitting inside watching football.
Also want to see nothing that resembles a traditional Michigan Manball offense on Saturday.
August 26th, 2019 at 7:29 AM ^
Is it too late to jump in and join all the banging?
August 26th, 2019 at 7:16 PM ^
Don’t forget Bob Ufer’s Golden Rule:
No Drinking If We Lose The Opener!
August 26th, 2019 at 7:32 AM ^
I hope this is the year we clear the one of the three elephants in the room.
August 26th, 2019 at 7:40 AM ^
I’m jacked tf up for a Monday now.
August 26th, 2019 at 7:41 AM ^
Fooooobaaaaaawwwww!!!!!!
August 26th, 2019 at 7:44 AM ^
I felt like TB12 walking into work this morning. Minus of course the millions of dollars, adulation from fans all over the world, 6 super bowl rings and GOAT status. Oh yeah and having a Brazilian supermodel for a wife. But other then that....
August 26th, 2019 at 9:40 AM ^
you both hold the same number of trademarks for "Tom Terrific" if that helps....
August 26th, 2019 at 7:53 AM ^
GO BLUE!!
