That was also me 100%. Thank God it wasn't anything bad!
November 20th, 2023 at 1:53 PM ^
I was terrified that something else dropped and flattened the site because of responses! Glad it seems to have been just a 'normal' flattening...
November 20th, 2023 at 1:58 PM ^
I thought the exact same thing and made the mistake of going on twitter / X to search up any news on Michigan Football. The crazy ass misinformation and conspiracy theories on twitter.

November 20th, 2023 at 1:55 PM ^
Is.... that what she said, or...?
November 20th, 2023 at 2:22 PM ^
So, Drupal 10?
November 20th, 2023 at 2:41 PM ^
I have more space for gifs!!!!
November 20th, 2023 at 1:54 PM ^
Since we were out, I went to Michigan Insider. Devin did a great job discussing JJ's troubles against Maryland and what it pertains for Ohio.
Entertaining, at the least.
Devin discussing playing against Ohio with broken bones as opposed to playing Northwestern or Maryland with a ding.
November 20th, 2023 at 1:55 PM ^
Holy shit I posted a gif for the first time ever
November 20th, 2023 at 1:56 PM ^
Excellent choice!
November 20th, 2023 at 1:55 PM ^
We are so back!
November 20th, 2023 at 1:55 PM ^
There was a minor bombshell, but it was dropped by the Free Press so no one here gives a damn.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:51 PM ^
And what was that bombshell?
November 20th, 2023 at 3:06 PM ^
The only thing I saw was an article about his press conference. Harbaugh dropped a Ted Lasso joke:
"It's like that Ted Lasso show," Harbaugh told reporters. "Belief. What comes out of that is believe. And I'm just so proud, so proud of our team. Despite that noise, our locker room's in one piece. And I like that. For me, locker rooms, lot like my mom's bathing suits. Like to see 'em in one piece."
November 20th, 2023 at 1:57 PM ^
outages used to mean we landed a huge recruit, color me disappointed lol
November 20th, 2023 at 1:57 PM ^
Osu fans: "Mgoblog is down, so this means they did something wrong and further proves that their dominant wins the last two years didn't actually happen!!!"
November 20th, 2023 at 1:57 PM ^
Seth, if you see this I've got some advise for you.
Me being a software developer, I've got experience in this field. You NEVER do a deployment or updates during an important time period. Especially the ones that you mentioned on Twitter.
Do all that junk the week after the big ten championship game.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:13 PM ^
I'm sure he had his reasons, but I too questioned the timing. At a point of peak paranoia colliding with hype for The Game building into a stupor, reports of multiple mgobloggers stroking out or freezing catatonically seem substantive.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:18 PM ^
Reminded me of a few years ago when the IRS scheduled a major systems update on April 17th, not realizing that the April 15 deadline had been pushed back to the 17th. lol
November 20th, 2023 at 2:23 PM ^
Believe me we had good reason.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:42 PM ^
Was it North Korea? I bet it was North Korea. Or a coordinated cyber attack from East Lansing and Columbus. Which is somehow worse.
November 20th, 2023 at 4:09 PM ^
I'm guessing that not having the upgrade in place before Armageddon III: This Time It's Personal would have been what IT folks like to refer to as "planning to fail".
November 20th, 2023 at 1:58 PM ^
Personally, I felt like Schrödinger's cat this morning. In the dark, wondering what was going on, what the future held.
It's great to bask in the light of MGoBlog once again.
November 20th, 2023 at 1:59 PM ^
I won't lie, I feared the worst. Figured the next PI/PR firm drip drip drip had dripped.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:01 PM ^
Can you hear me now ?
November 20th, 2023 at 2:42 PM ^
Gooood.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:01 PM ^
Where were you guys
November 20th, 2023 at 2:30 PM ^
Hiding.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:01 PM ^
Goddamn B1G trying to suspend this blog!
November 20th, 2023 at 2:09 PM ^
We have been back since 2021
November 20th, 2023 at 2:10 PM ^
Guess I picked a bad week to stop sniffing glue.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:10 PM ^
F you trustage. Good luck getting past drupal 10!!!
November 20th, 2023 at 2:47 PM ^
I bet she gives great helmet.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:10 PM ^
Don't tell my boss but I got more done in the 3 hours the site was down than I have since the B1G first started it's witch hunt over a Level III violation.
My initial thought, though, was that pranks between schools are getting more sophisticated these days. Back in my day, we'd try to paint Sparty maize and blue. I wondered if this was a targeted prank takedown by OSU in the same vein
November 20th, 2023 at 2:11 PM ^
Bucknut cyber attack. Fuck those bastards!!! LET"S GOOO!!
November 20th, 2023 at 2:12 PM ^
I'm back. I told you I would be.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:12 PM ^
The minute I saw the site go down, all I could think of is "Oh s**t, what really bad news just dropped that caused the site to crash?"
I must've refreshed the twitter profiles for Henschke, Webb and JUB 5-10 times to find out who else must've just gotten fired.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:32 PM ^
Same here. I even check Brian and Seth, the latter of which is the only reason I eventually found out it was a site update.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:37 PM ^
Although Seth and Brian don't owe us anything as their content is free, I wish they would've posted a Meta update on the Board last night that said "Hey, at this time tomorrow, the site will be down for an update for about an hour, so please for the love of Christ do not panic and think the coaching staff just imploded five days before The Game like you'd otherwise think it would've."
Whenever the site goes down and its not in the middle of a game, its almost always bad news. Same thing happened last week when Michigan decided to accept the three game suspension.
All I could think this morning was:
1) Who just got fired?
2) What new evidence did the NCAA just leak to ESPN?
3) Did Harbaugh just announce he's not coming back next year?
November 20th, 2023 at 2:41 PM ^
Seth said he simply forgot. I beleive it was all an elaborate test to see how much we'd freak the fuck out.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:13 PM ^
With the site down, I would have believed all the possible bad outcomes. Really turned out to be a nothing burger.
November 20th, 2023 at 2:20 PM ^
I had FOMO! What did I miss?!?!?
November 20th, 2023 at 2:27 PM ^
Did this just turn into a Posbang?
November 20th, 2023 at 2:33 PM ^
Seth, the hamburger menu doesn't work anymore. Made some JavaScript changes?
November 20th, 2023 at 2:38 PM ^
Neither does the search icon (at least not on my phone)
