MSU 2023: Epic Schadenfreude
Here are some of the best schadenfreude (Spartyfreude?) comments I could find, copy and pasted here for posterity and your enjoyment. Obviously if anyone has any more, feel free to add them to this thread. (Quick note: As usual I'm limiting it to text comments as these are easier to copy and paste, but there are definitely some hilarious gifs and memes posted out there.) Anyway, without further ado...
Beers are cracked
Vibes are high
East Lansing is the best city in the world
Beat Michigan
"It's not over. It'll never be over." -Coach Mark Dantonio
Started drinking
Are they actually having NBC trying to defend Michigan sign stealing?
How does UM find the douchiest most punchable QBs
Fuck NBC talking about our guys plea deal to the ridiculous and unprecedented charges
I already want to punch this play by play dude
NBC why you say nice things about michigan? they are SCUM!!!
I am once again begging Dantonio to stuff Hazleton into a locker and take over the defense
Michigan is so good....damn
No, we're that bad and they still haven't played anyone of significance
No we just suck lol, nobody in the B1G is that good this year
That’s game. Need to just keep it respectable now
Fire it all into the sun
How did Tucker manage to hire and retain not one, not two, but three incompetent coordinators
We are getting steam rolled. Saddest part of my life
Hire Meyer now
fuck why is nbc still talking about the goddamn tunnel!
"He was involved in the tunnel incident from a year ago" fuck you Noah Eagle
Why is our offense the worst fucking thing on the planet? we have guys, Jesus Christ, sick of this mother fucking bullshit
good lord nbc loves stroking harbaughs cock dont they
"Handled it with nothing but grace" are you fucking kidding me? Must be nice being able to break the rules and have everyone worship you for it.
It’s almost as if they know what plays are going to be run before they are run
Every time we run an offensive play, they are in the exact perfect spot, as if they somehow know where we are going
Zero pride or fight idk why I'm surprised after the chokes the last two weeks. We should jettison the football program and go join the Big East
Yeesh. This is like Tecmo Bowl.
Hazelton hasn't come close to stopping an offense since he was hired. This is a fucking embarassment and i want everyone, gone, all the way everyone
Gonna watch the -48 rushing yard game highlights at the half to remind me of who we were and what we can be (someday)
Hope Izzo lays 1,000 on these fuckers
10second run off was our best defense that entire half
Keep bitching fucking cheating dickhead
I might be dead at the end of this game
scum! they are scum! why cant the world see that
I can't believe any recruit would want to play for that crybaby ass
Michigan is so damn good and we're jealous, admit it
the leading receiver for us at the half was the fucking dog catching frisbees
We should have said we didn't want to play. The cheating scandal would have been magnified and done more damage than we could have ever hoped for on the field
I am glad we are wearing black because I am mourning our football team.
fuck michigan! I hope jj mccarthy gets chlamydia!
I am gonna root against the Spartans the rest of the game, fuck us, we don't care. i hope no one is here next seaon, zero coaches, nutritionists, strength coaches, analysts, athletic department
can we please get a stop? i'm fucking crying now
It’s going to be a while before we get to watch Michigan State play meaningful football again. This feels like Bobby Williams levels of sheer hopelessness.
They're going for 70
Get izzo on the sideline already!
This won't help us not be last in the B1G by a mile in penalties
Cut to the post-game presser. Harlan...have you lost this team?
I will refer to this as the game that was vacated
This is the worst MSU team of all time, to let the highest paid coach do this to us only because he checked all of the woke fucking check boxes, i am an alum, i am leaving
How many ways can we possible embarrass ourselves?
It is time to say that Harbaugh can go fuck himself! I hate everything!
God fucking damn it, this fucking michigan team is not supposed to do this to our guys. we are spartans why is there no fight no heart
This is the worst timeline I have ever been on
it's all bullshit man, we are msu. i cant wait until those fuckers get fucked in the playoff
What Michigan did to us this game is far less offensive than what we have done to ourselves the past two years. Total shambolic laughingstock. What a disaster.
can a ref just stick a finger up harbaughs butt please, i'm sure he needs a good scratchin by now
Worst MSU team in history. Team really just has no fight or heart.
GOD DAMN IT WE NEED A MERCY RULE
I'm going to have a stroke watching MSU football
Fuck Dantonio for leaving the program in shambles
Fuck MSUs admin for hiring Tucker and giving him that extension
Fuck the current coaches that are left that don’t give a fuck
More pictures of Hitler on the scoreboard than points. Beyond embarrassing.
good fucking lord i can't believe this bullshit
Congrats Barnett for owning the worst passing defense performance and home loss in school history you useless grifter....
Seriously Allen Haller should be fired for the Tucker Extension, promoting Barnett and letting Hitler make an appearance at the stadium.
It's so imperative they get Urban Meyer and HOF coach who can just be left alone like Izzo because everyone in the administration of MSU is a clown.
These coaches are so bad it's going to make the hire even more difficult. $15M a year for Urban get it done or MSU is DEAD.
Worst night in the history of Michigan State football for so many fucking reasons
This program is gonna be shit for the next like 4-5 years at least.
Well we only lost because they cheated
Urban Meyer. $20 Million a year. Offer it now.
I can not WAIT until those scUMmers get buttfucked by us EVERY YEAR like they damn well deserve to! spartan for life, spartan dawg!
if this loss does not make you want urban meyer then i don't know what will
FUCK YOU NBC! FUCK YOU HARBUGH! FUCK ALL OF YOU MICHIGAN PRICKS!
why didn't we stop them from stealing our signs? when will this program get out of its own way? god i hate this shit so god damn much
Ok, here's the deal. We're going to win every game against scUM for the next ten years.
I just don't understand why any recruit would ever want to go to UM. It's like, they're terrible, and cheaters
we need to make way more spartan babies. get on that shit!
srsly if ur not raising ur kids to root for msu then ur a straight up traitor to the state
I am not happy. This is complete BULLSHIT. Who said that scUM was allowed to walk into Spartan Stadium and do this? NO ONE! Get your fucking ACT TOGETHER guys! Stop spending time with your dumbass girlfriends and get in the fucking weight room!
Not sure if it was the game score or the 50 texts I got about Hitler, but at some point I crawled into a bottle of scotch and let mostly everyone know I was in a foul mood. Probably not great when you get a reply from your kids kindergarten teacher from 15 years ago asking "Who is this".
No pride...just waiting for the inevitable. I talked myself into us having a shot because we actually did kind of outplay Rutgers and Iowa for most of the game, but yeah just bigger/faster/stronger from the shoot last night.
Losing when you try your best is nothing to be ashamed of. That’s not what happened last night or the last several games. A handful of our players have tried despite their circumstances and I really hope they stay Spartans to help us get back to greatness.
I don’t ever want to see what happened last night again. I hope everyone in the MSU community wakes up to where we are as a program and at least get us competitive again. We need Mr Miagi to get us to eliminate the leg sweeping, cheating, pompous AF spoiled a$s brats down the road.
Why is anyone surprised? We have been a dumpster fire since 2016. KW3 gave us some hope but it was a flash in the pan because KW3 gave Tuggar the big contract. Tuggar then quit on us. Yesterday was an accumulation of failures for the past 10 years, save one great year from CMD and KW3. The BOT is nothing but a bunch of SJWs that do not care about MSU, they use it as a tool to push their twisted ideology.
The BOT and entire Leadership needs to be fired. You talk about pompous douche and the rich kids. That is exactly what the BOT and Leadership is. It is a Country Club for rich white people that push SJW ideology. They think they are doing a good job and pat themselves on the back. We only have ourselves to blame.
Someone please tell me ONE reason to watch one second of Spartan Football moving forward. What would happen if LITERALLY no one showed up for some of the games???
Urban looks good in green! Make it happen!
We need an MSU win so bad right now. Please hire Urban
Let's be honest, this program is a joke. Just hire Mike Valenti.
October 23rd, 2023 at 4:42 AM ^
tl;dr
Why do we care what the fan of a bottom tier MAC school have to say
October 23rd, 2023 at 4:49 AM ^
Ah, yes. The classic "why do we care" comment.
Excuse me if I find Spartans bitching during & after we destroy them to be hilarious.
October 23rd, 2023 at 4:53 AM ^
No excuses needed.
We all take joy in different things
Some people like seeing a good action movie
I'm a big fan of sports video games
And you like laughing at opposing fanbases message board posts.
Don't mind me if I take issue with it
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:07 AM ^
instead of taking issue with it, maybe you just move along and not worry about it?
October 23rd, 2023 at 9:45 AM ^
Nobody asked for your opinion.
October 23rd, 2023 at 5:02 AM ^
Tastes like sugar.
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:16 AM ^
Lips like suggggaaaaaaarrrrr
October 23rd, 2023 at 10:37 AM ^
I could have read 400 more of those.
October 23rd, 2023 at 10:37 AM ^
double post
October 23rd, 2023 at 5:07 AM ^
it’s a stupid post, but lord, at least boil them down to some choice cuts.
i'd also add - our open game threads aren’t much better.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:30 AM ^
I thought there were a lot but I was left wanting more.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:40 AM ^
"at least boil them down to some choice cuts"
Wait, you wanted less? I feel like if I did that people would be responding, "That's it??"
October 23rd, 2023 at 7:41 AM ^
I could have stopped at the more pictures of Hitler than points comment. Priceless.
October 23rd, 2023 at 9:18 AM ^
I thought it was great and read every one.
FWIW I truly enjoyed my lurker time at RCMB late Saturday night & early Sunday morning. The threads there were glorious.
You know what they remind me of? When a dad lets his little kid win at something and so the kid starts to actually believe they're good at it. Then, when they play someone who actually IS good at the sport/game they want to go cry to mommy that the other person isnt playing fair.
RichRod & Hoke basically empowered those useless fucktards into thinking they were relevant to football and they most certainly are not. Outside of a few years in the mid-60's pre-Bo and then again in the during the RR/Hoke years they've been what they are now. Indiana in green.
October 23rd, 2023 at 10:06 AM ^
This is exactly right.
They seem to think that football only was played between the years of 2009 and 2015.
The rivalry has - historically - been one-sided. But their fan base seems to have collective amnesia.
October 23rd, 2023 at 10:33 AM ^
The tale of the tape (as they used to say in boxing)
Michigan
971-345-35
43 conference championships
9 national champions
3 Heisman winners
The useless fucktards
605-402-30
9 conference championships
3 national championships
0 Heisman winners
Head to head M has tiny lead on the UFs 73 - 38 -5
October 23rd, 2023 at 11:54 AM ^
The hell? Where are you getting these stats from? 971 wins?
I am not planning my third (ugh) trip to that worthless suburban high school they allegedly call a Maryland campus to see win #974. Even the site counter is only off by 1. :)
October 23rd, 2023 at 10:10 AM ^
Old nickname: Little Brother
New nickname: Little Son
October 23rd, 2023 at 3:11 PM ^
They also had a good run in the early ‘50s, I believe.
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:44 AM ^
Our open game threads are often bad if they aren't winning by enough. I will guarantee that if we go back to the early season games we will find people complaining about JJ's pass-throwing abilities.
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:47 AM ^
Are you ever not aggrieved?
October 23rd, 2023 at 5:16 AM ^
Very funny .......but reminds me of Rich Rod and how I felt about the direction of the program. At least they have the portal now and a new coach can start to get some players with experience right away.
The state of Michigan is better off with a healthy MSU and they have been reeling from the Nassar settlement and the terrible contract to Tucker. The pandemic and the general lack of state funding for universities has left them in a delicate situation.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:51 AM ^
I don’t know if the portal is a panacea—they have like 20 players on their team this year that portal’d in—I actually think that’s part of their problem. D’antoni’s magic sauce relied quite a bit on developing lower tanked recruits who waited until their 4th/5th year to start—the portal strategy is kind of the opposite of that.
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:00 AM ^
The portal strategy that looks to be sustainablely effective is plugging holes here and there. Not a roster overhaul. MSU has been relying on the portal each of the Tugger years, it worked once. Colorado relied on it, plus hype from Sanders taking over, and it got them *checks notes* 3 additional wins over not-good teams. It remains to be seen if they can get beyond 4 wins this year. Florida State may be an exception to this, but I don't know just how extensive they were in using the portal.
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:44 AM ^
"Lower tanked recruits" -- the typo that says it all.
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:06 AM ^
I admit, some of this is really funny but not far off from what I’ve read in threads here. I prefer to take our head coaches suggestion and move on with humble hearts. Football teams are very fragile. We (or most of us) know too well that it takes one bad coaching hire to screw everything up.
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:37 AM ^
The worse MSU is the better it is for U of M.
Instead of a challenging game it's good to have an easy win.
We should win most in state recruiting battles.
Glorious!
October 23rd, 2023 at 11:56 AM ^
The state of Michigan is better off with a healthy MSU
The athletic institution itself? Sure.
The football team? No. The state of Michigan would be better off if Spartans Will Drop to D-III.
October 23rd, 2023 at 12:29 PM ^
I never bought into the notion that a strong MSU is good for the state. We do not say the same thing about the Directional schools. It would not hurt my feelings if we never played MSU again. We don't need them and they don't need us.
October 23rd, 2023 at 12:00 PM ^
The state of Michigan is better off with a healthy MSU
I don't think the performance of the MSU football team affects the state's wellbeing.
October 23rd, 2023 at 5:22 AM ^
Just remember, there is a lot of hurt, alcohol, & stupidity over there.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:03 AM ^
Right, but what about this year specifically?
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:02 AM ^
Funny; 10second run off was our best defense that entire half
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:33 AM ^
Also:
the leading receiver for us at the half was the fucking dog catching frisbees
😂
October 23rd, 2023 at 9:09 AM ^
I liked the one about the scotch and drunk texting the kindergarten teacher from 15 years ago.
October 23rd, 2023 at 9:26 AM ^
I did too, but then I did the math and realized that makes him ~20. So I kinda felt bad having schadenfreude toward a 20-year-old kid. OTOH, if he’s drinking scotch then his spiritual age is at least 30.
October 23rd, 2023 at 10:41 AM ^
Worry not! It was his kid's K teacher. So it's a guy whose kid is about 20 years old; the guy himself would be about 35 or older, maybe.
October 23rd, 2023 at 11:04 PM ^
A-ha, thanks for clearing that up for me. Now I can have my schadenfreude with a clear conscience!
October 23rd, 2023 at 9:28 AM ^
Agreed. Those were my 3 favorites as well.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:03 AM ^
I wonder why the guy texted his kid’s kindergarten teacher from 15 years ago. Yeesh.
October 23rd, 2023 at 8:58 AM ^
Drunk text blast to all his contacts to let the world know how upset he is with foosbaw. Just a wee bit self centered!
October 23rd, 2023 at 10:03 AM ^
I wonder why he has his kindergarten teacher's phone number.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:13 AM ^
I really enjoyed little brother's agony, of course in an affectionate way. :)
October 23rd, 2023 at 9:01 AM ^
I move that we should adopt Rutger as our little brother and quit playing Sparty. Kind of like the drunk relative that doesn’t get invited to Christmas dinner.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:16 AM ^
Bravo Decatur Jack! I have been anxiously awaiting this since yesterday and you delivered my man. So much joy and laughter to fill our hearts on this good Monday morning - LOL.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:28 AM ^
What I find interesting is the number of them who thought Michigan was stealing their signs. They're just that bad.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:36 AM ^
Gotta use anything they can to justify their reality. It's the low hanging fruit right now.
October 23rd, 2023 at 6:51 AM ^
Stole their signs that were whispered in their QB’s ear.
October 23rd, 2023 at 7:09 AM ^
That was the biggest Sparty No! They help us demonstrate the dominance. They could have cried we stole the signs if they had signs, even though we all know it is BS.
