Get the Lovie Beard on the Mount Rushmore of Michigan sports:  Jim (with dip in cheek), Juwan & Bakich.

 

Good night.

I'm not used to railing against individuality, and I don't tend to be superstitious, but most meme-ish/artsy mgoblog banners have been off-putting. This site, whether it wanted the responsibility or not, has become a de facto representative for who Michigan fans/alumni are, and this banner projects a bizarre sort of hypervigilance; that we have a one-track mind for letting this freak flag fly; DO NOT SIT WITH AT THE BAR; DO NOT TALK TO AT THE CROSSWALK.

It will be good for the blog to become more secure in the concept that, at least sometimes, things that are ordinary are best of all. Faces for example. That's one such case -- it's much nicer in life to have an ordinary face than one that half the population thinks is an abomination.

Football has run its course and basketball is at the beginning of a long journey.

How about an academic building or something different like that?  Show some love to the students getting it done.

This has to be the most worthless banner to post on a Michigan site. As a Michigan grad, it makes me embarrassed. Michigan and ONLY Michigan content.

Having 43,000 MgoBlog points is the ultimate measure of whether you are sucky or not. Anyone who spends this much time commenting on MGoBlog is most likely a pathetic loser in real life. How can one possibly have that much time on their hands? Don't you have some outside interests?

As my name suggests, I have been around since the Halo Scan days when "Angry Dan" quit the site because it started getting infested with schmucks like you. These days, "The Board" is a cruel joke compared to the early days of good commentary and reasonable debate.

Now it's just full of circle jerking douchebags like yourself who are convinced Michigan cannot be elite because we don't cheat. Your profile picture of Nick Saban holding money bags is case in point. And therefore until we cheat, we'll always underachieve.

What a pathetic way to comfort yourself about being mediocre.

Fake internet points are stupid, I don't care about anyone's point total. That's not what I said. 

As to your other "point", I, uh, average one comment per day on this site. Easily visible on my account history. So yeah, time is a luxury I don't have much of. 

Also stop putting words in my mouth. I never said anything like what you're saying.

Stop trying to make "fetch" happen Brian. Nobody likes Pitbull except for you. It cost us a football season, please burn it in hellfire before it messes with our basketball season.

It may have already has messed with basketball season. Did you see how we shot against Louisville on Tuesday? 

 

Also, I’m pretty sure Shea hadn’t fumbled since the Pitbull banner came down this earlier this fall. If the banner hadn’t made him drop that snap against OSU, and we scored a touchdown on that drive, then the entire complexion of that game would have been different.

 

We could’ve possibly beaten OSU and Louisville, but Brian had to bring back a Pitbull banner and its curse again.

 

Brian, if you read this, I want you to know that it’s all your fault!

I don’t understand why people continue to bitch about the stupid banner. Do you honestly care?

Pitbull has never been fun or cool, even in an ironic way. Asking a guy like Brian, who looks like he just rolled out of bed and threw a hockey jersey on to be the arbiter of what's cool and funny is a lost cause.

For what little I see of the banner, when I do, I cringe every time I see that doucher's face. Pitbull is lame and putting the Lovie beard doesn't make him better.  Isn't there a cool sideline shot of the basketball team in action that can be used as the banner.  Something with style and class and no douchers.
