Production Inaccuracies In ABC / BTN Broadcast (Which Were Interpreted As Hate By Author Of Post)
intro on ABC showed JJ McCarthy not McNamara while BTN showed someone other than Blake Corum as one of 4 Impact players yesterday.
MOD EDIT - Changing title because A) I can do that, and B) the original accounting of this as "hate" is almost certainly woefully inaccurate and a strange thing to take personally. - LSA

Yeah I noticed that McCarthy was pictured when the broadcast brought up Cade McNamara at the start of the game last night. Didn't notice the Blake Corum thing.
Either way, none of this deserves a thread, least of all a poorly worded and hastily put together one.
September 12th, 2021 at 9:37 PM ^
yeah, hastily worded? more like dont give a fuck, duck. deserves a thread?? its sunday evening and you responded. its arrogant dips like you that give michigan fans and especially students a bad name.
September 12th, 2021 at 10:31 PM ^
Just think where we'd be without such class acts as yourself to balance it out.
September 12th, 2021 at 11:07 PM ^
Bullshit like taking a honest mistake and perceiving it as a slight against your fandom is what gives Michigan fans a bad name.
You should probably commiserate with WD... he posted some rubbish on Friday about people who may not wear maize to the game.
September 13th, 2021 at 6:45 AM ^
That sounds very "On Brand" for WD.
September 13th, 2021 at 9:10 AM ^
Boy, that escalated quickly.
September 13th, 2021 at 9:44 AM ^
Bolivia called; your table is ready.
September 12th, 2021 at 8:53 PM ^
I mean, I saw they accidentally used JJs photo when they were doing Cade's intro but pry done by some intern making $15/hr. Not something worth being worried about.
September 12th, 2021 at 9:01 PM ^
Oh, come on. That's a ridiculous assumption. There's no way interns make that much.
September 12th, 2021 at 11:09 PM ^
Dirty little secret about Big 4 life... interns make more per hour than Associates.
September 13th, 2021 at 12:20 AM ^
Dirty little secret about the entertainment industry…a lot of interns are paid below minimum wage or not paid at all. And these aren’t “spend a few months then go back to college” internships. They are full-time jobs.
This makes it so that only the kids of rich entertainment industry people can actually afford to be interns.
September 13th, 2021 at 6:46 AM ^
I made that much as an intern 20-25 years ago
September 13th, 2021 at 8:56 AM ^
Eh...world's a pretty different place than it was 20-25 years ago. Just because you made that back then doesn't mean it went up. In general, the opposite has happened as a lot interns get paid in "experience" now.
September 12th, 2021 at 8:55 PM ^
Also noticed the “Gary Mueller” tag during the game. Rough
September 12th, 2021 at 8:58 PM ^
And coach Gary Mueller as well? Shoddy work by producers
(Edit: I see I was late to the party on this one)
September 12th, 2021 at 9:22 PM ^
I'll bet Gary Mueller knew how to hold his liquor.
September 12th, 2021 at 10:09 PM ^
Too soon, man. Too soon.
September 13th, 2021 at 8:37 AM ^
That would be Gary Moeller, right?
September 13th, 2021 at 9:55 AM ^
Him too!
September 13th, 2021 at 11:19 AM ^
Or Ferris Boeller's Day Off
September 13th, 2021 at 12:21 PM ^
Why am I being dragged into this?
September 13th, 2021 at 3:00 PM ^
Boeller? Boeller? Anyone?
September 12th, 2021 at 9:03 PM ^
Moar disrespekt?!?!
Hanging a hundred on Northern Illinois and Rutgers, (500 yards rushing and 500 yards passing each game) should take care of that.
September 12th, 2021 at 9:05 PM ^
On Gameday yesterday, the ESPN desk host referred to Ronnie Bell as Ronnie Jones, apologized for the mistake, then immediately called Iowa State "Northern Iowa."
September 12th, 2021 at 9:19 PM ^
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
September 13th, 2021 at 8:56 AM ^
Hanlon’s Razor. Exactly.

Gold jacket green jacket who gives a shit
September 12th, 2021 at 10:34 PM ^
Gold label, green label might not matter, but you'd better not mistake them for blue label
Go Blue!

When Haskins scored his td the one announcer, not McDonough, called him Hawkins.
September 12th, 2021 at 9:48 PM ^
I noticed as well. Still overwhelmingly prefer that broadcast team over Gus Johnson. They seem to be the least intrusive when I’m trying to actually watch the game.
September 13th, 2021 at 9:57 AM ^
I still generally turn down or mute tv broadcasts and turn on cc. Then use DVR to rewind to anything I want to hear.
September 12th, 2021 at 11:11 PM ^
Yes, that was Todd Blackledge who made that mistake.
September 13th, 2021 at 8:07 AM ^
So what's the deal with everyone calling Chuck Filiaga by the name of 'Filianga'? There is no 'n' in his name! Seth is the worst at that!!
September 13th, 2021 at 11:19 AM ^
Can't tell if you're serious or not...either way, that is the correct pronunciation of his name per his mgoblue.com bio.
(Direct link to audio pronunciation courtesy of Jim Brandstatter: LINK)
September 13th, 2021 at 12:50 PM ^
Seriously?? Adding an 'n' where there is none? Jeez, my lawn apparently doesn't allow these types of pronunciations. Perhaps I'll get off my own lawn...
Thanks for the lesson!
September 12th, 2021 at 9:29 PM ^
I'm good with a Pay to Post model here
September 12th, 2021 at 10:02 PM ^
Don't make the assumption that that would improve the quality of posting around here.
September 12th, 2021 at 9:31 PM ^
Blackledge called it gold pants.
September 13th, 2021 at 2:21 AM ^
McCarthy, hands it off to Hawkins whose gold pants streak into the endzone and coach Mueller goes wild!
September 12th, 2021 at 9:31 PM ^
DAMMIT
why is everyone out to get us??
September 13th, 2021 at 8:50 AM ^
Everyone is NOT out to get us.
They're just out to get you.
September 12th, 2021 at 9:33 PM ^
Good. Let them take us for granted and we earn the respect we think we are entitled to

How exactly does a dumb mistake qualify as 'Mich hate'? Hate is Pete railing about Harbaugh at the drop of a hat. Hate is what sparty trolls do.
September 12th, 2021 at 10:03 PM ^
dumb mistake would be your father buying condoms in the reduced bin.
September 12th, 2021 at 11:12 PM ^
That's pretty good.
Did you think of that one all by yourself?
The Michigan Difference!!!
September 12th, 2021 at 11:30 PM ^
Wow, you are a bundle of nerves. You should be talking things out with a counselor--raging at strangers on message boards after they call you out on your crappy posts is not a cure for whatever ails you. Good luck...
September 13th, 2021 at 7:26 AM ^
You are beyond sausage.
