In Sparty's defence, there was an air raid and they did get fire bombed.

Sometimes you have a run of the mill woops-a-daisy

Yeah. What a big nothing burger. He’s a historical figure. It was a TRIVIA question! Jeez, people are wound too tight. (Neg away!)

It's not a big scandal, but MSU did have a huge picture of Hitler in their Jumbotron, which is worth seeing the Sparties make excuses.
Plus sensitivities are higher due to current events.

When I go to college football games, if there's one thing I expect to see, it's trivia questions about genocidal dictators.

"We are deeply sorry for the content that was displayed, as this is not representative of our institutional values," Michigan State associate athletic director Matt Larson said in a statement. "MSU and our athletic department are not Hitler reincarnate, we didn't create Hitler, we aren't saying Hitler was an MSU grad, we will neither confirm nor deny dieser Hitler war großartig und sollte nicht vergessen werden."
*Mic drop*

Is this going to be their new home field tradition?
Iowa has the "Hawkeye wave" at the end of the first quarter. Wisconsin has "Jump around" to begin the 4th quarter.
MSU will have "Hitler halftime trivia".

I've seen a Sparty say it wasn't their fault because it was a YouTube video.
So, who puts a YouTube video on the jumbotron without previewing it first?
October 22nd, 2023 at 1:52 PM ^
Spartans Will.

'It was just one Hitler image' is the new 'it was just five plays'

Msu is a weird program
A porn image would’ve been better

Ah yes, all of those famously educated white nationalists and KKK members. GTFOH.

But where does Tlaib stand on this? /s
October 22nd, 2023 at 11:55 AM ^
Any word from the “interim” president? Or does she only speak to matters involving UM football?
October 22nd, 2023 at 12:04 PM ^
Rashida Tlaib approved
October 22nd, 2023 at 12:04 PM ^
And on another note, when was it displayed? If late in the game I am guessing most of the home crowd was gone. 🤷🏻♂️

The photo I saw shows it was 81 minutes before kickoff.

I'm sure Meijer really appreciated the "celebrity" endorsement of their chain - NOT!.
So the "interim" MSU Prez, who wanted the job until it was clear she wouldn't get it, issues her "chagrined" statement about our supposed "Sign stealing" BS.
Other than Bynum, the entire BoT must be replaced, then replace the Prez, AD, and a huge portion of the Ath Department. Rotten to the core values. Mork also needs to be given a place on Isle Royale to live among the wolves.
