Just saying I was relieved that the true supporters of the program were able to get tickets through legitimate means (unlike certain high demand home games.) It was good to see that the scalpers and counterfeiters didnt make the trip Oh, and the obvious point that Harbaugh already has a sronger base of support than all his predecessors since his mentor. Im sure you recognize that even though youre makng light of the obvious.
Nothing like a good piece of revisionist history to start off the New Year. Pesonally I prefer nonfiction. I was in the stands both times we played Florida in the Citrus Bowl. We won both times. Lloyd Carr's last and Jim Harbaugh's first (bowl game.) The most striking difference that popped out to the naked eye: the percentage of maize and blue in the crowd. For Lloyd it was 90-10 against. For Jim: 50-50.
Other than that, a couple more paragraphs, and you might have enough to start your own weekly magazine. Here are some key points to consider re.. previous head coaches for future editions: 1) Rich Rod NEVER had Alumni support from the day he was introduced as head coach -- and with good reason. 2) Brady Hoke's downfall was lack of communication. As a Wolverine he had the support from the get go, until the refusal to wear a headset came forward and evolved into a major issue. In a time when others are looking for any competitive advantage, no matter how ethical, and you wont even use the ones that are available?
So that is all for now. All the Best in 2016 and beyond. May the Force Be With You...aaaaand Goooo Bluuuuue!!
Were you at the game? How many other injured players in uniform wore yellow visors that were visible from every section of the stadium? As if to say, 'look at me, I'm here. Not going in today, but you still cant miss me.'
When he signs a pro contract and ends up in a starting role by midseason. You might however, be underestimating the ability of his eventual replacement. There is no denying how blessed Harbaugh was to have Jake fall into his lap in his Michigan debut. Thank you karma and thank you Kirk.
We did beat Sparty by 2 td"s. The B10 refs awarded lil" bro the win. You're welcome Jim. Would have been 4 without the bogus targeting call. We deservedly lost to Utah. Chalk that up to opening night jitters. I am on record for the contrast between our performance vs. OSU as opposed to our performance vs. UF. Go back to the MSU game, and youll see where the breakdown on defense, and the refusal to corrrect it occurred.
For the N'th thousandth time:::: Keep Jabril at home.....On his sde of the ball...Or OUT of the gameplan entirely!!! Stop treating him like he's 'special'. Give the other thoroughbreds in the stable their touches..
The points you make about talent levels and quality of prospects are all valid and impossible to dispute. However they are disguising the huge glaring elephant in the room, with regard to changing the culture moving forward. The elephant named Jabril Peppers. Watching him on the sidelines in his yellow visor (no coincedence) I couldn't help but notice how much more cohesive and efficient we were with him out of the gameplan (nee Denard.) We played as a team. This is as it should be. The observation about having the keys to a Porsche only amplify this fact. There are many others in the lineup who can do what we did to Florida yesterday. Jabril needs to get better at HIS position. Keep him on his side of the ball and kick returns. Give the other thoroughbreds their touches!!!

Given the fact there are free crab legs at Publix when Tampa wins, will there be free caviar in Russia when Trump wins?
Ok maize. As long as we are in agreement--you couldnt miss it from a mile away, brah

They had their best game of the season, and it was without Jabril. No such thing as coincedence. No 'what if' needed. Just a fact.

1) The offense showed it is just fine without him and the yellow visor against Florida.
2) He needs to get better at his position in order to make it to the next level
3) Splitting time between offense and defense has a negative effect on both sides of the ball
4 There are many others ready to step up and do what he has done (and more)
5) He can be more effective when used wisely, not at will
