In a Panther knocks, anther.

I'm impressed. It must have been a thousand-to-one shot.

A pastry chef? Cool.

Do you cook pastry for your family?

But you're not the only one who's had bison. You're right: pretty darn good eating.

They're moving to New Jersey?

Impressive.

Brian Cook: sees all, knows all.

Great news! Thanks for posting.

Thank you. I wish it could have worked out for me too 

What?  . . . oh . . . you meant Juwan. 

Joking aside, I mostly posted this (not-new) news so I could express my thanks to him. 

Nah, no flex on employment. I was about as obsessively work-avoidant as usual. Just missed that one, and didn't see it in the news till today.

I'm a bad man.

BUT the other post didn't mention the BIG news: that his middle name is Antonio. 

(Everyone knew that too? Well, downvote me and put me away wet.)

Oops. Without my usual obsessive checking, I missed it. Sorry.

Obviously getting drafted matters to the players and their families.

But for the rest of us, if Michigan breaks the draft record, that's great. 

And if not, also great: it would mean Michigan won the national championship thanks to teamwork.

Mikey's small, Blake's small, Roman's small, Jaylen's small.... So Michigan won the  national championship and the undersized  national championship?

Regardless—and irrespective of critics—we'll take it.

This is terrific. Boynton's great. May's great.

Thanks for posting. It's long but gave me something to listen to while I cooked.

The trouble is that as men age, they have less hair to curl.

I played basketball with football players once. As you point out, they're good athletes. They also outweighed me by a gazillion and were scary.

I think it was Jerry Seinfeld's joke that fans are only rooting for the jerseys. He was wrong. 

This roster coming together so dramatically fast teaches a different lesson. 

It feels good to root for players that Michigan's coach has chosen, and who have chosen Michigan. In other words, they're like many of us on this board: we chose Michigan and it chose us. 

Well, of course! I assume ALL Michigan coaches start their morning with MGoBlog and consult it regularly through the day.

Where else could they get such sterlinig advice? Such comprehensive wisdom? Such speed in complaining about misbegotten titles?

Was it just a week or so ago we were wondering if May would find enough players?

The article mentions Harbaugh's eyes lighting up when he got a report on JJ's toughness in hockey.

As the Brits say, what you lose on the swings, you gain on the roundabout.

Which is a roundabout way of saying we can't have everything. 

Anway, I'll take a bad title and lotsa good commits any day.

My father-in-law, after growing up with lonnnng Passovers he wasn't fond of, always started ours with his first question: "How long's this gonna take?" 

LOVE defense!

A. I agree with you.

Second) I'm sorry about your gravel.

iii. And  I thought I was a cunning linguist . . .

I don't recall Meatloaf's "beating the Buckeyes" song but I didn't follow his career closely. 

In any case, good for you Mr. Loaf.

A team. A team! I sense a team brewin'!

Thanks for the update. Reminds me to check the highlights.

Go, Blue!

Go, Blue! Stop Cats!

Un, deux, Tre! 

Keep 'em comin'!

So far, no one seems to have expressed it this way: We've got a Wolferine!

Excuse me but at what time does that activity start? I may have a sick cousin to visit then.

Great news.. Welcome, Wolf!

Is Orji limping?!

What a treat to watch.

Fast Frederick!

Considering mistakes and penalties, not a bad Maize drive.

Oops, missed kit. So not a good drive.

"High steaks"!

Hi, steaks.

What does "Sack the Stigma" on Martindale's shirt mean? Last year's kerfufles or something else?

Am I happier Maize got the first down or bothered that Blue allowed it?

I never expected to be enjoying Michigan football in the spring.

So fun.

Way to hang in! Niiiice pass.

Great first series! Including passes!

Thanks for posting. This is all new to me—another reason I love this board.

We got a coach. Coaches. And we're getting a team. Feels good.

Welcome!

NOW what can people get upset about?

Welcome!

Hoping Enow Etta blows up, for his sake, for the sake of the team—and for crossword puzzle users.

"The reigning National Champions of college football, the Michigan Wolverines"

I love that
