Accidentally pressed save before typing anything.
Anyway, do they bus out of AA? Fly to Rutgers? Whatever they do, they should probably do it soon. It would be pretty disastrous if that game can’t get played. I don’t see an opening for it to be rescheduled.
Par for the course for this season it seems.
February 22nd, 2023 at 8:58 AM ^
Whoa, we now have pars for the course in B Ball? Can we ask to move the sticks with a fresh set of downs, too?
Lemme clean the reading glasses, get another cup of coffee and re-read this ...
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:11 AM ^
Par would be another Final Four appearance.
But, my basketball memory only goes back five months (/s)

I'll drink to that!
February 22nd, 2023 at 10:10 AM ^
Only if they move the goal posts.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:31 AM ^
They might have to fly tomorrow morning. Not ideal, but the game is at 8:30 p.m., so they'd still have some time.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:57 AM ^
You fly out early if necessary. We deal with snow storms in Michigan every winter. I can count on one hand the number of Michigan basketball games that have been cancelled by snow storms.
February 22nd, 2023 at 12:28 PM ^
Ann Arbor and Romulus area (DTW airport) are forecast to get 0.77" of ice between now and 2 AM Thursday. They won't make it out of the parking lot at Crisler if that holds up.
February 22nd, 2023 at 10:56 AM ^
Fly and it’s not that bad.
February 22nd, 2023 at 11:03 AM ^
How about we don't refer to "death storms" when talking about UM MBB and flying?
February 22nd, 2023 at 11:34 AM ^
May not be a "too soon", but either way, 2017 wasn't That long ago to be forgetten.
February 22nd, 2023 at 8:43 AM ^
Weather drama! Tune in at 6 for an ‘action news’ update!
February 22nd, 2023 at 8:45 AM ^
I want them to go live to “the scene” with a guy acting like he can’t stand up because of the sheer force of the ice.
February 22nd, 2023 at 10:06 AM ^
Interesting. My weather person preference is different than your preference.
February 22nd, 2023 at 10:09 AM ^
Strong silicone winds combined with a heavy downpour of implants.
February 22nd, 2023 at 10:30 AM ^
im hungry
February 22nd, 2023 at 11:07 AM ^
Staying on top of the weather - can’t get enough of it…
February 22nd, 2023 at 11:36 AM ^
Damn! Look at that poop box!
February 22nd, 2023 at 8:58 AM ^
DAMN YOU, SNOW!
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:05 AM ^
In the UP this is spring training weather. Why, when I was a kid, the Zamboni came out between innings. I’ll have you know that we went to away games with sled dogs, mushing all the way to away games. Kids these days…
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:11 AM ^
Dogs! You had Dogs? Our sleds were lunch room trays pulled by hungry Gerbils.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:40 AM ^
Down here in Detroit, our H.S. season opener usually had a snow delay. Senior year, our game was delayed an hour, so we drove to Rally's (now Checkers) for some extra fuel. We might've won state if we did that before every game.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:02 AM ^
ITS GON RAIN!
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:19 AM ^
We are getting up to an inch of ice with 3-5 of snow on top of it, dude. Get your provisions early today. This is going to be an ugly couple of days.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:31 AM ^
Okayyyy. I can't remember the last Ice Storm Warning that was issued. I think this is going to be a notable event. DTE is apparently prepping for widespread massive power outages.
February 22nd, 2023 at 12:02 PM ^
A good ice storm is somewhat rare around here. Veterans of the area might remember one around 1994 or 1995 in March that really did a number on trees around Ann Arbor. We lost two very nice birches and a few pines in our property.
As for preparation, one thing we do say often is that it is far better to be completely ramped up and nothing terrible materializes than to be blindsided.
February 22nd, 2023 at 12:35 PM ^
I went out to buy a new generator and filled the gas can with 5 gallons. Worst of the storm should miss us now,
February 22nd, 2023 at 2:12 PM ^
When that one hit Indiana we were without power for 13 days. I remember my dad plumbing a gas can to the fuel tank on the generator so it would run for 12 hours instead of 2 hours.
February 22nd, 2023 at 2:22 PM ^
2017 Big Ten Tournament wind storm was crazy too. I was without power for 8 days. Had to stay at my parents after two days because no heat and the temp was like 12 the entire week.
That was a rough week. Michigan basketball kind of kept me from legit losing my mind.
February 22nd, 2023 at 8:57 AM ^
I had to cancel a trip to Traverse City today because I didn't want to drive up there in shitty weather.
So now I'm gonna hang out on my couch all day and smoke myself retarded.
February 22nd, 2023 at 8:58 AM ^
I wonder if it will be bad.
saw a prediction for 15 inches 2 days ago. Still waiting for that…. That’s what she said.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:04 AM ^
R-word? Really?
Do better.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:29 AM ^
Bando you can keep on fucking yourself pal. You're so offended by everything. How difficult life must be for you.
February 22nd, 2023 at 10:01 AM ^
I recall being told I'd be sent to Bolivia if I told someone to fuck themselves.
I wonder if Rob is still sticking to that rule.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:59 AM ^
When you were reading sheet music & it said retard, did you pick up the pace in protest?
February 22nd, 2023 at 11:49 AM ^
Going to be some real issues with this engine if I can no longer retard the spark timing the way the specs dictate.
(Edit/add: Folks, I'm aware of the needed sensitivity (many families have a few "special situations" they deal with, including mine); the current vocabulary wars have swung the pendulum into the silly zone. Let's try to keep it light and fun without insulting and/or demeaning anyone?)
It’s a word and it has meaning. Thin-skinned people get bent out of shape for no good reason, because they don’t like the meaning of certain words. You retard that spark timing every time you need to!
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:05 AM ^
I'd rather brave bad roads heading to TC.... with a stop off to visit XM...
February 22nd, 2023 at 10:26 AM ^
Need some help with that?
February 22nd, 2023 at 12:09 PM ^
retarded.
gross.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:01 AM ^
It's been nice and sunny down here. Feels like spring. What's going on up there?
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:20 AM ^
Chaos. Dogs and cats living together.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:32 AM ^
Yeah, but are you seeing human sacrifice, mass hysteria? Unusual behavior from kitchen appliances? Are you even wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on your back?
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:55 AM ^
All of the above.
Damon Lindelof already has a show in production about what is happening up here right now. It will have very self-important music throughout.
February 22nd, 2023 at 10:38 AM ^
90° here yesterday, played golf and drank some Yuengling 🍺.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:27 AM ^
Are you pitching a new t-shirt idea here? Because if you are, I'm definitely buying one.
DEATH STORM - MICHIGAN BASKETBALL sounds bad-ass as hell.
February 22nd, 2023 at 9:30 AM ^
Ha. Actually after I accidentally saved that I kind of liked it. That should be their new warm up shirt.
