played them regular on my show on WCBN in the 80s but always w a bit of fear from the Man as the F bombs were the sort of thing the FCC was using to fine stations. but you know, F em.
Dierdorf is the Right Tackle in this game. Boy, he really jumps off the film as a guy to watch. Incredibly athletic and powerful for his size. He is just crushing Spartans. Fun.
as with other posters I live in Europe. Last year was a disaster. YouTube recognized every VPN I could use. Never got it working properly. The games streamed here last year were a miracle.
BIG Thank you
now if I can get this off the little 11 inch lap top onto the tv I'll be goofy nuts happy
Home field advantage with some crazy late November weather could have been exactly what Sparty needed to upset PSU on a motivated Senior Day.
And it is possible that Michigan will need Penn State to lose that game.
The MSU program seems to be saying that they don't believe that their fans would attend, that the game is one they can't win and some quality television time is an equal exchange.
Coincidences. I live in northern Spain. A sports buddy who is from Zaragoza just yesterday told me about this guy because he plays for his home town club and that he thought he had awesome potential. Maybe best player ever from Spain.
I used to play on a small court by the hill dorms. On a couple of slow summer days I played Wheatley one on one. He was ridiculous. I just pretended. But one time with a fun 4 on 4 Calip was on the court and that guy dunked from the free throw line. I remember seeing his hips go past my face and thinking that I have no reason at all to be out here. GD he had hops. So damn cool.

This is from the interim President of Michigan State University.
As of now there is no eye witness or video evidence to show that any Michigan player instigated or attacked an MSU player. No Michigan player has been charged. 7 MSU players have been charged.
The final sentence shifting blame to the tunnel is stupid and offensive. It justifies the actions of criminal.

The Rutgers punter Adam Korsak is fascinating. At first I thought his style was an improv. But it’s tactical. By holding the ball he increases coverage, he kicks closer to the line of scrimmage, he creates a run threat, and I suppose he could also cultivate some roughing penalties. For the season Rutgers has held opponents to negative return yards on punts. Is he a one off weirdo or a whole new way to do it? Either way guy is a maddening magician.
Pep is a legend. I live in Spain. For years Ive tried to explain to friends here without any success the similarities between his style and the cycling of hockey, especially the first years when the Russians came to play for Detroit. You could write a master's thesis on the comparisons of Busquets and Larionov.
Thanks for posting. I just thought I was the only nut who saw this.
People forget how Frost's hiring was a dream match for Nebraska. He was a successful coach. I never thought that he would fail so badly. And it will be interesting in the years to come to hear why.
Is Jim Leonard of Wisconsin worth an interview?
Also a chance to do something Right. Nebraska has never had a varsity Black head coach. Every other Big 10 team has/does.
In addition to painting you may want to consider printing. I did something similar but on a smaller scale for a garage and used a photograph. Big output printing is much cheaper than it used to be. For sources you may want to ask at local trade show booth builders in addition to traditional print shops. With an image you can do anything.
I have this dream like visual. A packed stadium on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. The opening kick off sails high into the air. At that moment both teams just freeze in a protest of solidarity. The ball bounces live around the goal line. Still, no player moves.
I am not a good historian. But when I think about what this may look like I get a bad feeling of the South vs. Everyone. Throw in some Northern moral outrage from paying players and it easily becomes a bitter dispute along too familiar geographic lines. One more way America can eat itself.
And more tv commercials. I am not sure I can do that.
Didn't mean I was on a sailing ship bound for the New World. Reflecting about crossing into Canada via car. I went to Univ. of Toronto for Grad school and made a lot of trips to Detroit from the Big Windsor.
Anything that reopens borders and gives people opportunities is a good thing in my opinion. I hope other countries in Europe follow and smarter long term thinking will prevail in the USA. Naive, but miss the days when you could sail across a border without seeing machine guns.
geeeez. For a legendary team with a lot of historic players that was one ugly game. How many times did they run over RG for 1 yard? This is why they booed Bo.
but love the field design and the N at midfield is nice.
Also a huge amount of weather powered instruments. If you lived through 80s Industrial Bands you witnessed a whole garage full of power tools put to use in odd ways. All of them loud.
Tom Waits does pretty things with old weird stuff.
I strongly agree. Another generalization that I don't think is true is that a younger QB will be better with more experience. Be interesting to see a breakdown of the positions that do benefit with age and experience such as lineman.

I think the go independent talk is like a 6 year old telling his mom he is gonna run away.
But it does conjure up some nice fantasies. Like living in your tree house and eating Oreos for dinner
Such as all players are paid with health care
The Games are all shown on the internet for a small fee.
There are no commercials on the Wolverine Network. Games finish in 170 minutes.
We answer to no one but to the Code. We all know it.
That is all. resume rabble rabble rabble
If they take down the lights the networks can't make em play at night.

and what a game it was.
down by 2 in the 80th minute to win 3 2
I've always thought Barcas slogan, More than a Club, is how I felt about Michigan football

still the player I think of most what could have been if not for the injury. almost Marcus Allen lite
Indiana punted on consecutive downs.
Not sure I remembered that or ever seen before.

Nobody gonna squeeze down on the Corn for having an O coordinator named Mr. Whipple?

I often visit a Mezcal Cocktail Bar near me when I can and they make gorgeous drinks. Nice selection.
Very helpful for me to understand more about the Pass defense. Can you add something about how this applies to Run defense.
I see this pre snap motion as vulnerable to power zone blocking
Thanks. You make the games more fun.

Odd amount of backlash to a post stating the name of the world famous event with one of its most famous participants. Picture included.
I got it.

If I was a QB I would like an offense that threw the ball a lot. Oregon does that. Michigan does not.
If we are picking like 3rd grade kick ball then I want Stanford and Cal for Bay Area dinero and classroom cred.

Thanks for posting. Watching Michigan crush a Buckeye QB is sweet in any era.

p.s. who is actually a really talented guy
This is why I…
Awesome fun.
