Friday POSBANG - Get Out The Way Edition

Submitted by GoWings2008 on November 3rd, 2023 at 12:04 AM

A lot has gone on since the last time Michigan has taken the field.

Based on what happened to sparty, I imagine the team is quite, shall we say motivated, to prove their true ability.

I'm personally ok with being ranked behind osu for the time being. It will only add fuel to their fire.

So, pin your ears back, tell our last four opponents they should prepare for hell. Cuz it's surely coming.

Oh... And let's bang.

The NCAA itself has acknowledged that sign-scouting affords "minimal competitive advantage."

So, the fair Michigan punishment should be to go back and dock us a field goal from the score of each of our games.

OK, dock us a touchdown just to be safe.

OK, dock us two touchdowns just to be safe.

OK, dock us three touchdowns just to be safe. 

What's that you say?  Still doesn't matter.

But being more talented, more studied, more honed, more disciplined, and more excellent in every conceivable way... THAT produces an unmatchable competitive advantage.

And now we will be more MOTIVATED than we have ever been.

This team is going to KILL everybody on the field. Where it matters.

Totally pandering now to get to my 100 pts...  Until this week (tonight), I was an almost 20 year blog and podcast supporter while also being a board lurker / message-board-sober individual...

But given my age I feel it's appropriate to take this stance...:

Learned how to embed today.  Thanks KO Stradivarius!

I don't use the OE embed.  I like this method better, it gives the full size YouTube window:

(1) On YouTube, click the "Share" button below the video window, (2) then click the "Embed < >" icon on the top left of the pop-up Share window, (3) then click "Copy" in lower right corner of this window (this copies it to the clipboard).  The embed code is a nasty string of text, but don't sweat it.  Note that it begins with "<iframe" and ends with "iframe>" in case you need to edit the post later.  

(4) Go to your MGo post comment window, place the cursor by clicking within your post where you want the video to be inserted, (5) then click "Source" at the top right of the toolbar.  The window format changes to be more code-like and you will see this text code string where the cursor is:  

                          &nbsp;</p>

(6) Paste the embed code in this string after the semicolon (before the </p>), as follows:

                       &nbsp;(INSERT EMBED CODE HERE)</p>

(7) Then click "Preview" instead of "Save" and you will see how it looks.  Click Save if you like it, if not then click "Source" and go back to fix it in the Source window (click "Source" again to exit). 

Profit!

Well said! However, I have to admit that I'm still quite a bit nervous about the remaining schedule we have ahead. Both PSU and Maryland games are on the road, and the OSU game that won't be easy for us(even at home). One of the things about OSU this year that worries me is that they've won all their toughest games on the road. Not to mention they've played a tougher schedule in comparison to ours. We have no room for error and losing only one the remaining games will cost us significantly considering all the current Michigan slander in the media. That being said, after getting past OSU we still have to play either Iowa or Wisconsin for the B1G championship(Trap Game). The PSU, OSU, and B1G title games will be tough and shouldn't be overlooked. There's a lot of football left to be played gentleman, and to win the CFP we have to kick it up another two notches. Our first real test of the season will be PSU, may the games begin. Let's go blue!

Man these players (and coaches) need our support.  Expect the House to be rocking.  Let's bang the shit out of the Boilers and leave no doubt.  See you tomorrow night

Earlier this week someone asked who would play Jim Harbaugh in the signgate movie.  I suggested "The Rock" because what other actor could embody the manliness of Jim Harbaugh.  Via Stable Diffusion:

I drove all the way to the office and realized I didn't have my laptop when I got there. So, fuck it, I'm taking the day off.

Luckily Mrs. Hatter is still in bed. I'll be back in about 2 minutes.

Considering all that’s going on in the world, maybe this would be the best weekend to Turn Back the Clock and just listen to music or news about whether Daylight Savings Time should come to an end. LINK 

Go Blue, Beat Wisconsin on the ice and Purdue on the gridiron!
