I still need to check the schedule. Someone mentioned there are no top-25 vs. top-25 games, but there are always entertaining games every Saturday.
September 13th, 2019 at 7:40 AM ^
Iowa - Iowa State with Game Day, might be the best of the bunch.
Hooray for improvement week. Lots to accomplish.
Go Blue!
September 13th, 2019 at 7:44 AM ^
Personally, the interesting games this week are:
My top game is Stanford vs. UCF (personally I hope UCF slaughters Stanford)
Pitt vs. Penn st.
Maryland vs. Temple (this one more so to see how Maryland does against a team w/ a pulse)
Mich st. vs. Ari st. (same reason as the Maryland game)
Florida vs. Kentucky
September 13th, 2019 at 8:31 AM ^
Looks like two of the best games might be Stanford - UCF & Kentucky - Florida. Overall week three definitely has the least interesting matchups.
Although TCU - Purdue could be a thrilling shootout I suppose
September 13th, 2019 at 9:39 AM ^
Kentucky will get run by Florida - despite Florida looking like a bit of a mess in week one. UK hasn't been impressive in either of their first couple games and Florida plays TN the week after so basically a bye week.
September 13th, 2019 at 7:22 AM ^
It rained this morning. Guess I can't mow today. Oh darn.
September 13th, 2019 at 7:57 AM ^
Been saying that for 2 weeks now...
September 13th, 2019 at 8:20 AM ^
Gonna need a bush hog soon
September 13th, 2019 at 8:53 AM ^
Ha you said bush
September 13th, 2019 at 9:28 AM ^
This?
September 13th, 2019 at 7:28 AM ^
Maybe I can focus some BPONE on OSU and MSU and make them lose.
September 13th, 2019 at 7:30 AM ^
Bang bang to a bye week! Flying back west after work week in DC. Plan to get out on my bike and enjoy some family time over the weekend. I’m also wearing some maize and blue to illicit a casual “go blue” from fellow travelers today. Enjoy a bangin’ weekend and go blue!
September 13th, 2019 at 7:33 AM ^
I am going to re arrange my sock drawer. Good times!
September 13th, 2019 at 7:34 AM ^
It's raining. It's Friday the 13th. No Michigan football tomorrow. Oh well, bang me!
September 13th, 2019 at 8:22 AM ^
I'll leave that to your significant other if it's all the same to you
September 13th, 2019 at 7:42 AM ^
Impromptu 'work' at home day. I do this too often, but what the hell? Kid is getting his hair colored up with a hair marker, whatever the hell that is, for wild hair day at school. Enjoy, kid... The wife and I might go see It, Chapter Duece.
September 13th, 2019 at 7:45 AM ^
my chairs bigger- but I have to leave it empty to sing Amadeus with the Detroit Symphony. Oh Wolfie!
September 13th, 2019 at 8:26 AM ^
scanner, is there a stream or radio broadcast of your singing gig? sounds pretty tremendous.
nice chair, too. go blue!
September 13th, 2019 at 9:39 AM ^
I don’t think so - maybe in the spring when we do Carmina Burana in Detroit. Hill Aud. was sold out over a week ago , so probably the biggest audience since the late ‘80’s or early 90’s to hear me.
September 13th, 2019 at 10:44 AM ^
I hope you'll remember us little people on your way up. At least I will be able to say,'I knew scanner blue before he went big time....'
September 13th, 2019 at 7:50 AM ^
I'm going to the renaissance festival tomorrow, so I'll be thinking of killing myself most of the day.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:10 AM ^
Weather will be perfect for it. Renaissance festival on a hot day will cause immediate suicide so at least you don't have to do with that.
On the down side, how many pairs of boots do you own?
September 13th, 2019 at 8:28 AM ^
Just 2 and I'll probably need them both if Holly has been getting as much rain as Royal Oak. It's going to be a disgusting mess.
At least the people watching is good. If you enjoy seeing (and smelling) people wearing silly clothes that are 3 sizes too small.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:35 AM ^
There is a dive called Bottoms Up about a quarter mile from the Renaissance Festival site. It's the kind of place where you are little apprehensive to enter the bathroom without an Outbreak suit but they have lots of big TVs, really cold draft beer and some Holly-hot waitresses. Maybe try to dip out after the joust and make a respectable day of it after all.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:46 AM ^
Thanks for the tip. Maybe I'll ditch the family and head over there at some point.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:52 AM ^
The MGoGirlfriend and I love that place, but sometimes, you gotta be willing to play. Last year at the Washing Well Wenches show, I got dragged up on stage by Dottie the Dangerous. She stuck her fingers in my Guinness, wiped some on her neck, and eyed me with a "What are you gonna do now, ya little biscuit?" expression.
The audience was hooting and hollering, and I looked out to the MGoGirlfriend in the audience and yelled "Honey ...?"
"GO FOR IT!" she yelled back.
So I bent Dottie over and gave her my best vampire imitation, to much crowd approval.
Like I said, you gotta be willing to play.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:54 AM ^
Seriously F all that
September 14th, 2019 at 7:20 AM ^
Oh, I don't know. It was pretty funny at the time, and we laughed about it for the rest of the day. A year later we still do.
So I'll always take that over the cost of a beer. I can always buy my own Guinness. I can't always buy that kind of memory.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:57 AM ^
I liked it better before we had kids and when I still drank fairly heavily. Also a pretty fun place to go on acid.
September 13th, 2019 at 9:45 AM ^
I don't want some dirty bitches fingers in my Guiness. Don't touch my Guiness. I'll cut a bitch for messing with my Guiness. Guiness is God's nectar - don't fuck with mine.
Besides, did she clean herself off with bleach after the last show when she did the same thing?
Bitch stick her filthy fingers in my Guiness, she gotta go...
September 13th, 2019 at 9:58 AM ^
Wow. That was awesome.
September 13th, 2019 at 7:53 AM ^
I will light a candle and pray for a rapid healing of Shea's muscle strain. (Sorry - I know that's an oblique comment.)
I'll show myself out ...
September 13th, 2019 at 8:07 AM ^
As a 3 time dad, I approve
September 13th, 2019 at 7:53 AM ^
According to the calendar, it's the first Friday the 13th of the year, MGoBloggers, and that means that it's National Blame Someone Else Day!
So, even if you're at fault, you can blame anyone you want about the points not working on MGoBlog, or the lack of Michigan football this weekend, or the lack of new cover sheets on the TPS reports. You can blow your top at someone else for your own mistakes and, when you do, GO BLUE!
September 13th, 2019 at 8:16 AM ^
Well in that case, a lot of people here blame this guy....
September 13th, 2019 at 8:25 AM ^
skinny
bald
weasel
be gone!
September 13th, 2019 at 8:55 AM ^
You mean this guy?
September 13th, 2019 at 9:32 AM ^
PLEASE STOP POSTING PENIS PICTURES ON THE BOARD
September 13th, 2019 at 9:43 AM ^
"This building IS Hammond Druthers."
"Hats of to your lady friends but I'm not building a penis."
September 13th, 2019 at 7:55 AM ^
It's too early in the year for Wife's Day. The season doesn't really start until next week anyway.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:01 AM ^
Bang Away, MGoBloggers!
September 13th, 2019 at 8:09 AM ^
Chattanooga at Tennessee - Full implosion maybe on there
New Mexico at Notre Dame - Want to get a good look at the Irish and see what we are store for
Arizona State at Michigan Staee - Spartan fans have gone from calling for the firing of the entire staff to "BIG title fo-sho brah" after a win against Western Michigan, has the potential for a nice Sparty NO moment.
Washington State at Houston - Because it is tonight and my kids will be sleeping
September 13th, 2019 at 8:27 AM ^
somehow i see state winning easily this weekend. i hope i am proven very wrong.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:38 AM ^
I kind of agree. It is mostly because Arizona State looks pretty terrible and cannot run the ball against anybody, let alone State. Who knows though, it is usually when I feel this way about a State game when they get like 6 personal fouls against them in the first half and end up in a game they shouldn't be.
September 13th, 2019 at 8:43 AM ^
i like your vision of the 6 personal fouls very much johnb. can you please add a 'loss' to that and make it happen?
September 13th, 2019 at 8:49 AM ^
One of the personal fouls just turned into Targeting against Willekes, and I added two false starts, a muffed punt and a dropped TD in the endzone. ASU 26-20.
