Can't claim them because then Ohio would get to claim Joe Burrow and there are some Bengals fans on the board who want to pretend that Burrow has never seen Third Base let alone was on his roster.
As said above, the brand recognition and the fan base. Also the hatred of those outside the fan base. Love them or hate them, you will want to watch them. Like the New York Yankees, the Dallas Cowboys and the LA Lakers.
You want to keep them in the TV deal just as we would have wanted to keep them on the schedule. Same with Ohio.
Staee on the other hand, the only ones who watch them are Michigan fans, fans of the opponent and the few Sparts who still have hope.
No one watches the Minnesotas and the Purdues except fans of the opposition.
The area around Campus Martius is all blocked off so it won't be possible to park real close. Our office is in the blocked off area and I think most people are working remote this week. I have heard recommendations to come down in the morning if you are planning to drive. I think it would make sense to park far away and be prepared to walk. Not sure whether the Q-Line is an option.
They can do the noon game. West coast people are used to football on TV in the morning. The question is what happens when we go out there. 9:00 p.m. Pacific time exclusively on Peacock.
We were at the softball game last night. It was so cold and windy even with winter coats and blankets. We were glad to back to the car and turn the heat on. Kudos to those braving the elements this afternoon.
I'm not a fun of the black but I wasn't a fan of the black either. I like what Michigan has done in recent years and mixing up color rather than resorting to alt unis.
I just watched it this morning. It was broadcast this past Sunday. There is supposed to be a 30 for 30 documentary about it that has not come out yet. Worth watching.
Mike Legg was a Yost a few years ago (probably before COVID - I just looked it up it was 2016 how time flies) to celebrate the anniversary of the championship and he did the Michigan through the Score-O while shooting it from the opposite goal line. Quite impressive.
I wish Bill Muckalt the best at Lindenwood. The job there is a challenge for the best. There are a lot of people who follow the program who thought Muckalt should have been given the job over Naurato. I thought of Naurato having the higher ceiling and Muckalt the higher floor but I am not close enough to the program to know who was the better choice. I knew Muckalt would gone after the 2022-23 season because you could see the lack of chemistry between the two of them on the bench.
Time to start coping. From fourth place in the B1G to Frozen Four is good. To get to this point we sent home two teams that were supposed to beat us. One of them was FYS. We got beat by a better team.

40 years for me too.
Is "password" your password?
I don’t think they even had Sunday games back in the day.
Bad Ballparks:
Tropicana Field - I can't believe they still use it
Miller Park (or whatever they call it now) - Feels like you're in a stuffy building even with the roof open
Metrodome - I'm glad they put the baggie to rest. I've been there for football, baseball and basketball and it was bad for all three.
Anaheim Stadium (I was there when it was also used for football) - just ugly.
New Comiskey Park (or whatever they call it now) - it was sterile and the upper deck was too steep.
I think I've been to all of these but Tropicana Field. I've driven by Tropicana and know it is a dump.
Such much for Eli Brooks the second leading us to the final four.
Just like me

Every time you are near.
It's photoshopped. They wear a green hat.
Pretty good forecast. All but one of the likely 12 and 2 of the possibles. We should have had more because we are allowed to be biased.
Staee is tied with Texas A&M Commerce with one seventh rounder each. Never heard of Texas A&M Commerce before let alone knew they had a football team.
I still don't like them. May there never be maize black and blue unis.
Not a fan of the black. Last time the Loins wore them they were not very good. Black is like fake toughness except with the Bad Boys.
Understand that others like it.
Antonio was in his hello post from 1991.
Best of Luck to Coach Howard. He's probably better suited to the NBA.

Seth's Hello post from 5 1/2 years ago. "He could be an effective slot specialist on defense."
To the Pat McAfee crowd, Nick can do no wrong.
I can deal with the dome if the weather really sucks. Otherwise the dome is a sterile environment.

Chag Sameach!!
They are both tied to a full moon so Easter either comes right after Passover or they are a month apart.
The Florida folks can come for a night game in November

1 pm was the best. Sleep in. Eat a late breakfast/early lunch. Go to the game. Take a nap. Dinner. Maybe an hour of studying. Party.
Right idea. Wrong opponent. Texas game at Noon September 7 on Fox.
Probably something stupid like that Fox will broadcast the OSU game at noon.

Pippen was Jordan's Greg Kelser. If he wasn't there, then there would have been another first mate.
It will be weird to cheer for a Pippen but if the Bulls fans could cheer for the Worm then anything is possible.

Interesting. I wish Tarris the best there.
It also showed that 2021 wasn't a fluke and it was the one that really got into the head of the Bucknuts.
OSU 2022

Apologies for the source of the link.
I’m glad no one is hurt.
Welcome back Rutger
Not planning on going. Going to softball on Friday night.
I enjoy watching but I don't really care who wins this year.

The M-Den just had a flash sale with some good bargains. I didn't need anything but I usually wait for a sale.
Otherwise you are just the old guy reminiscing about getting polo shirts for a nickel back in your day.
If it is any consolation, buying food so you can fit in your current clothes wouldn't be any cheaper.
Sounds like Brett Favre on ice
I guess I'm going out for dinner Saturday night. I told my wife I wasn't going if we won tonight.
It would be like going full Izzo down 20 points. Pulling Barzo wasn't going to make it better.
It will be awesome next week but not tonight.
Time to start coping. From fourth place in the B1G to Frozen Four is good. To get to this point we sent home two teams that were supposed to beat us. One of them was FYS. We got beat by a better team.
I thought we had a chance tonight. Oh well.
Fuckity Fuck
Guy wanted to say something good about us and ESPN cut him into a commercial. He will get a talking to.
One unshining moment. The rest looked good.
Fuck
