Damn straight Brutus. I'm starting to worry about how many times I agree with your takes.
As a transplanted Michigander residing in Minnesota, reminds me of the Herb Brooks quote: "The name on the front of the jersey is more important than the name on the back."
I usually agree with your takes MgrowOld, but not on this one.
To swindle the woman who took you in when you were a child out of her home is a special kind of terrible. You don't just get a "time served" exemption for that kind of shit.
Great college basketball player, terrible human being.
Does your mom ever make you come out of the basement and interact with people? You are what my dad called a fun-sucker. You suck all the fun out of everything JPC (aka Maizen).
Mean Gene was the best. Before WWE came to take over regional for cable "national" audience, he was the man here in Minnesota.
Vern Gagne was the owner, Mean Gene was the Barker. Loved the guy. Vern was a big amateur wrestling supporter (paid for my trip to Worlds in 1978, as well as quite a few others) so I got to meet Gene many times.
Gene's son was one hell of a hockey player. Played for the Gophers then the Islanders IIRC.
You are a joyless person. Another tough guy behind a keyboard. I guarantee if we were in a bar you wouldn't be so bad with name calling. Keyboard courage.
Any time you're in Minneapolis send me a message. I'd love to have a discussion with you!
Edit- to clarify: Wolverinerxblue was who I was referring to as previously known as...no need for me to check dates! Perhaps you should check your attitude and obsession with being chronically unhappy with football.
Worldwide and FORMERLY known as someone else must be a joy to hang out with.
Jesus guys, relax. The sun will come up tomorrow. Everything is ok. The team isn't there yet. Part of the journey.
Again, relax. If we want to take joy in Staee being a dumpster fire we can! Quit telling us we aren't "fans" if we dont share in your pity party or need to tell us all how much smarter and knowledgeable you are in coaching football.
So many cool stories about user names. Unfortunately mine is pretty lame. I live in Northfield, MN. Famous for kicking some James Gang ass back in 1876. The town still celebrates that raid every year. Don't mess with a bunch of Swede's cash, it won't end well.
Avatar is a pic of my 1966 Chevy Chevelle convertible. 104,000 original miles. Stock and drives like a barge. I'm way past my street rod days.
My only bitch is that I have nothing to bitch about. Life is good. My kids are healthy and (relatively) well adjusted considering what a goofy father they have.
Wishing all my fellow Mgoblog addicts Happy Holidays and a joyous and New Year.
That's why the have 85 scholarships and play 22 guys...of course with special teams, subs, and specialists more see the field.
EVERY 4 and 5 star's tape from HS looks good, they dominate. Now they get to the next level, some don't continue to develop, some can't handle the mental side (ie everybody is flipping good), and some struggle with academics/ away from home...they're just kids.
Been 35 years since my days, but I saw alot of hot shots who just didn't keep progressing through college. It happens. Doesn't mean they are bad people or bad players...just not quite good enough...and most still want to play the game they love.
We should all wish them well as they chase their dream. (Or put on the tin hat and worry that this is abnormal...as we've seen on a few threads over the last few days.)

I would be totally fine with Moody handling all the PAT and Field Goal duties. Nordin seems to be a head case
Brutus, you've got to shake the PBONE buddy. I'm getting worried about you.
Scotty's momma might disagree with you, but I don't. Nebraska just isn't NEBRASKA yet. 28 - 10 Buffs.

Three wide outs and a tight end! Guess they do not think highly of Frame's potent passing attack!
Double fuck OSU.
You nailed my top 3. Would have loved to watch Harmon run, pass and kick. I've seen some old clips, that man was a beast.
Does your mom ever make you come out of the basement and interact with people? You are what my dad called a fun-sucker. You suck all the fun out of everything JPC (aka Maizen).
Your mind is truly an empty place.
Maizen...has he signed any 5 Stars?
Asking for a friend.
What is your opinion of marrying your first cousin? I know that is quite common in parts of Ohio.
As the band strikes up Dueling Banjos from Deleverance....
Yep...another of Maizen's long and not so illustrious accounts. Guy is a certified loser.
We get it Maizen, you dont like Harbaugh and you pleasure yourself while reading scouting reports on those 5 stars.

Great dude. RIP Mean Gene.
Who cares? I'm so over 2018.
Hater or whiner? Both?
God...you whine more than my 2 year old grandkid. Does Moomy need to change your diaper?
Oh the irony!
Sure are a lot of 3 and 4 month trolls on here.
Another of Maizen's accounts? JPC, Dayton, WolverineRxblue? All unhappy little campers.
Please go to Red Cedar or 11 Warriors and clutter their blogs with your ramblings. You all would fit in nicely with that crowd.
Typical JPC...resort to the "dickhead" mantra.
My Pizza was cold when you delivered it. Try to put your MSU education to good use and strive for better customer service.
Anyone who would pay Cousins $84M guaranteed should be exiled to NFL hell.
I like Zimmer, but after watching this year I'm on the fence. Fans here were convinced this was a SB contender this year. His seat is getting warmer.

STFU.
You got the ban hammer for being a big time ass hat. Now you're back with a new name, and yep, being an ass hat.
Somehow I think you'll be on to another name after getting yet another ban hammer for being...you guessed it...an ass hat.
Happy New Year. Make a NY resolution to try to be less ass hattie.
Fuck Staee. Terrible team, playing in a terrible town, wearing terrible uniforms, in a terrible "stadium", with rape enabling administrators.
The Oregon Fighting Nikes suck too. I'm so burned out on Football after the last two games. Thank God for BB.
I thought this game was meaningless
You are clueless.

Greek women are hot as hell, but they're also emotional as hell too. He will fit in perfectly over there.
He is still a scumbag. I was hoping he was going to take Meyer's Leadership and Ethics class.
Congrats!
Laser's been here 10 years pal, you've been here a month and post nothing but OSU crap...who is the troll?
Merry Christmas - this the season to be kind to mental midgets. (mental little people for the PC police out there)
I'm thankful for my 3 great sons.
Goal for '19 is to be a better father. I have struggled with connecting with them as they've grown to adulthood. (27, 25, 23).
I also want to get my health situation squared away. (Type 2 diabetes sucks when you aren't disciplined) and to finally break 75 in Golf.
Lastly, I'm thankful to see that I'm not the only warped old man in the world obsessed with Michigan sports. You're all 5 stars in my book.
You are now officially my favorite poster. I couldn't agree more with every one of your points.
My only bitch is that I have nothing to bitch about. Life is good. My kids are healthy and (relatively) well adjusted considering what a goofy father they have.

Oh...and fuck OSU, MSU, and PSU.
Do you have anyone in your life who doesn't think you are a sad, insufferable SOB?
Your Mom doesn't count.
I. Am. Speechless.
Convicted of wire fraud...not to mention his adoptive mother lost her home due to him.
I think he got 5 or 6 years in prison.
Rice was incredible during that run.
The Higgins put back was special.
Robinson hitting the 2 from the line. I'd be more appreciative of Robinson but he turned out to be a horrible human.
Don't cross the streams!!!!
After any nuclear apocalypse only two things will be left alive - Meyer and Cockroaches. A strong argument can be made that they are one and the same.
Fuck O$U. That place is a joke.
Guy just can't help himself.
Moving on...
Nope. The correct answer is accepting the Head Football Coach position at The University Of Michigan.
FIFY
Two month wonder. You really need to learn some etiquette dude.
Try having a conversation rather than telling everyone how stupid they are...except for Maizen...
Hey wait a minute...Maizen? Is that you again? Tired of being Scootertooter and the inevitable Scootertooter2?
Grow up, man up. Debate is fine and healthy. Even if it hurts your feels.
(Bracing myself for the expected "shut the fuck up.)
So true. Tennessee realizes that they need to start playing the 'crootin game with the rest of the $EC.
Give them 2 years and they will be on probation from that stellar organization known as the NCAA.
Their fanbase is tired of being an afterthought, so easy to find some extra cash to spread around.
On point. Every level you go up is harder and that pond keeps getting bigger. Life goes on.
I too struggle with this...seems a little weird. I'll play in this meaningless bowl, but not this Peach meaningless bowl?
Group mental masturbation!
Spot on WD.
Damone, you're 100% correct.

Read Bacon's book. Spells it out without naming him. It is in End Zone.
Glad it all worked out for the kid.
Thanks Natevolk...sums up my feelings and thoughts much more succinctly than I could express.
