META: No Citrus Bowl Post?
Anyone else find it unusual that we still do not have a Citrus Bowl post on the main page? Normally, the post is up minutes after the official announcement, no matter what level of bowl.
If this is part of Brian's apathy after the OSU loss, I find it a little disappointing. I, for one, am excited about the prospect of playing an elite team and pulling off the big upset, as minute as the chances may be. This game nets the program so much more attention than the typical Outback vs. Florida matchup.

We're also gonna need Seth's annual screw-Capital-One-this-is-what-you-call-the-bowls post.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:34 PM ^
Vrbo this year!
December 10th, 2019 at 12:00 AM ^
Sounds like a water-borne pathogen.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:24 PM ^
Seems like Brian has family stuff and Ace is sick, so things are a little delayed judging but the current front page.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:24 PM ^
We just have to live with the fact that we are all on a blog that is managed by people who are so deep in the BPONE that it affects what gets posted.
But that's why we're here. We can start discussions about the bowl game.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:27 PM ^
Brian said in his main board post today that he had a family emergency and Ace has some sort of allergic reaction that's been keeping him on the DL. I don't think it's some sort of BPONE-whatever thing.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:29 PM ^
The beauty of this blog is that we can start discussions ourselves.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:32 PM ^
Imagine how much this place would burn if we controlled the front page content.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:37 PM ^
There are probably a ton of people who rarely even check the front page and only go to the MGoBoard.
But there would for sure be more posts about new Michigan merch.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:43 PM ^
Put me in that group. I used to regularly check the main page, but the board is much better and has faster and more entertaining content.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:52 PM ^
....and great Pitbull threads!!!

I used to have a bookmark to "recent posts", which would show any new activity on the board or front page. It was great.
Since the site changed, I now just have a link to the board so absolutely never see anything from the front page.
December 9th, 2019 at 7:21 PM ^
Imagine how much it would suck if people didn’t contribute by posting.
December 9th, 2019 at 8:51 PM ^
I wish we did.
December 9th, 2019 at 4:15 PM ^
Do we have a volunteer for the Ohio State UFRs?
December 9th, 2019 at 4:52 PM ^
Sure, here you go:
December 9th, 2019 at 5:44 PM ^
I am struggling to understand why anyone would want to read a UFR about the OSU game.

I am struggling to understand why anyone would want to read a UFR about the OSU game.
December 9th, 2019 at 10:04 PM ^
I would. Knowing why you failed is a key ingredient to knowing how to succeed. I think I already know the answer based off my personal UFR based off amateurish viewing (too many self inflicted wounds), but I am no expert and would love to see a breakdown on who and why. One of the main draws to this site is the in depth review.
December 9th, 2019 at 10:15 PM ^
December 9th, 2019 at 11:52 PM ^
Yeah, it would be interesting to guess how much of the problem was, say, just Metellus and Hudson being awful, how much was it that nobody had a good game, and how much was RPS or some-such.
December 10th, 2019 at 2:13 PM ^
We lost because the interior defensive line couldn't hold the line of scrimmage and too many mental errors and immaturish behavior.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:29 PM ^
This isn't what I pay my hard-earned money for!!!

wait....

From today's basketbullets:
"Podcast apologies. I had a family issue and Ace is dealing with a severe allergic reaction, so there's no podcast today. Back at it next week. Silver lining: text content will be novel instead of also on the podcast."
Given the family issue, I imagine he had to choose between a Citrus post and basketball, and the Citrus can wait.
December 9th, 2019 at 6:59 PM ^
Is your avatar PFT?
December 9th, 2019 at 3:36 PM ^
Here. I'll do a Citrus Bowl post for you that should be an adequate summary of what I'm sure Brian is going to post once his family situation is resolved
December 9th, 2019 at 5:15 PM ^
Pointless game that will see Michigan get paved why are you so excited to see content
December 9th, 2019 at 6:15 PM ^
BPONE
December 9th, 2019 at 3:38 PM ^
The slowly declining level of giving two sh*ts.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:38 PM ^
I think Brian is having some family stuff right now. That's why there was no podcast this week. And of course Ace is having an allergic reaction to something, so the staff is thin right now.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:42 PM ^
Anyone excited about playing Alabama needs to seek help.
December 9th, 2019 at 3:56 PM ^
Then I need some help. Strap on a set and get behind your team. This is a good team we are playing but the most beatable Bama team in many years.
December 9th, 2019 at 4:56 PM ^
Yeah, and it still won't be close.
Yay for us.
December 9th, 2019 at 5:31 PM ^
Harbaugh’s team is the underdog, right? Well, then, Michigan gonna lose.
December 9th, 2019 at 7:24 PM ^
I’m excited. Honestly, given how down you seem about a game, I think you could use some help.
December 9th, 2019 at 4:04 PM ^
Since the content here isn't earth-shaking, I'm gonna threadjack with this:
"NFL reporter Jane Slater caught her boyfriend cheating when they sync'ed their FitBits and his heart rate started spiking at 4 AM while he wasn't home."
There's a joke or three in there somewhere...
December 9th, 2019 at 4:24 PM ^
That's rather presumptuous on her part. Chances are that he's jerking, right? 4 AM is not the booty call hour. Unless that dude was pillin'.
December 9th, 2019 at 4:35 PM ^
I'm old, so I understood about half of what you said.
December 9th, 2019 at 6:25 PM ^
You clearly ain't pillin'.
December 9th, 2019 at 6:32 PM ^
It's called Fitbit. He was just fitting his bits in the wrong place.
December 9th, 2019 at 6:35 PM ^
Breaking Tech News: Fitbit can now counts steps and strokes with it's new mode called " Giving it good to RGard's Mom" Mode or GIGTRM mode for short.
December 9th, 2019 at 6:39 PM ^
I can't say much about this man's integrity, but I admire anyone who's up and at em and getting after it at 4AM.
December 9th, 2019 at 4:22 PM ^
I am going to treat this like Florida/Michigan '07 and fret, dread, and awfulize, until I turn the game on New Years morning and Michigan is playing with reckless abandon and running a heavily favored SEC perennial national champion all over the lawn. So, this approach is in keeping.
December 9th, 2019 at 4:41 PM ^
+1 for awfulize.
December 9th, 2019 at 4:25 PM ^
Worked out great. Gave Bump Elliot's passing and the interesting post about him top slot for the rest of the day.
December 9th, 2019 at 4:25 PM ^
Brain is sad
December 9th, 2019 at 4:58 PM ^
Obviously we're a basketball school
