Motor City Sonics

I did like seeing the Michigan team do the whole Jump Around thing at Wisconsin with as much intensity as the crowd. That's something I haven't seen in a long time and I think it gave them an edge, or at least it took that edge away from Wisconsin.

But The Team The Team The Team worked for a long time after Bo said it. You said Dantonio started the narrative, and these things can find of feed themselves for awhile. At some point Dantonio just checked out. But Tucker's is bringing that back, he's using that "they don't think you're as good as them" thing. You can't see that? The last time I saw Michigan get really fired up was Lloyd's last game. There's sort of been some little flashes here and there, but Michigan has not had an edge, a nasty edge, for a very long time. Throwing a spike in the ground at MSU's stadium was just stupid.

No, but most of those other states were already spiking so they didn't have much of an uptick, while we WERE doing well, and then school started. The timing does point to that. That is the most conventional reason for mass gatherings.

But the kids playing now actually remember that time, they were 9/10 years old and it was probably when they started becoming real fans.

You're dealing with a bunch of 20 year olds, all you have is recent. Think they care about anything before 2010?

This is from school being back in session.

I don't know if I'd go that far, but I mean, it's clearly labeled Small Carts/Large Carts. There are few things, on this earth, that are less ambiguous, yet they still can't do it. Why? FOR THE LOVE OF HUMANITY, WHY !!!!!!!!??????

I just now found out that Maynard & Zed from Pulp Fiction are brothers.

Ah, we'd have already broken him by now. If the Lions had taken Brady, he'd currently be a banker or something like that.

If they were already his congregation after 8 previous DUIs, I think they are probably just fine with him.

A Ferndale Pastor is facing Attempted Murder chargers because he was driving drunk up north and the cops tried to talk to him at a convenience store and he refused to speak to them. Took off, hit a building and threw his car in reverse and aimed for the cops and slammed into a patrol car. He had 8 DUIs already. You know, I'm sorry if you have a substance abuse problem, but I would say that you should probably be spending 20-30 years behind bars once you've hit 4 or 5 DUIs. How was this allowed to happen? Because he quotes The Bible? All these PSAs about Drinking & Driving and this guy's out there. Pretty hollow warnings from our criminal justice system. Lucky he didn't kill anyone.

Tip: If you wouldn't say it out loud at a podium in front of people, you probably shouldn't say it in an email, especially in a job with a public profile where people are ALWAYS looking to tear you down. For anything. Also - Don't be a racist, misogynistic, homophobic a-hole who can't really coach.

I agree Romad.........He'll probably run for Senate now. He's got a shot with this Republican party. He can't go to MNF again. URBAN MEYER, COME ON DOWN, YOU'RE THE NEXT CONTESTANT IN...................YOU'RE FIRED! What a debacle. With the NFL looking to avoid a billion dollar lawsuit with St. Louis, it wouldn't shock me to see Jacksonville relocate there - or maybe even Toronto. This Urban Meyer hiring was supposed to solidify them there, and it's been a disaster. All our coach did is get choked up. I'm fine with that. His players would run through a wall for him.

This song got stuck in my head today..........and I was shocked at how well I remembered the lyrics.

Did something happen today (Monday)?

I would much rather have a coach who gets emotional after a tough loss, then the arrogant ass we previously had, who had his team quit on him and acted like we were lucky to have his presence. If some thing a few tears doesn't mean he's tough, then I think you are out of your mind. He got emotional because he's not going to lash out at his guys, he's not going to blame anyone and I think he knows he's dealing with something he can't fix right now. I'd much rather have him make his coaching mistakes now, than later. If he makes the same mistakes in Year 3, then I'll have an issue with it. His players play hard for the dude. It's better than the emotionless boob we had who actually would talk about his Patriots days to defend his bad coaching, when he had little to nothing to do with why the Patriots won. (Brady made them great and Belichick was a cheater).

Yes, they always do. Every year. They still feed off that vibe that Dantonio started of them being disrespected compared to Michigan and it has given them an edge over the years. Not every year, but more often than not. It just means more to them and I still don't think Michigan truly respects them as a rival. Look at last year's game. Michigan was a heavy favorite and they were sleepwalking into that game and Mel Tucker showed up in Ann Arbor and his team punched the Wolverines right in the mouth and Michigan had no response to it.

They've played well enough to win the last 3 games. Too many times they were moving the ball - quite well - until they get in the Red Zone and BOOM, something goes wrong, usually a fumble or INT. The defense is surprising. It's not good, but the last three weeks it has gotten better as the game has gone on.....but for those last drives where they go Prevent. The biggest problem is the QB and yes, he has no deep threat on this whole team, but he is not getting it done. Why must this team NEVER seem to have a decent backup? It's almost like they are afraid to challenge their starter Why not?

I think State will beat Michigan on Oct. 30th. The game just means more to them and they just have that emotional advantage. Plus they will be at home.

THEY COVERED ! All I need is the Cowboys to beat the Giants by more than 7 and I win the parlay today !

I remember a game in Tennessee where Stafford was playing like crap and they pulled him for Shaun Hill and it ignited the team and they made a comeback and took it to overtime and on a 4th down instead of kicking the field goal they were trying to draw the Titans offsides and Dom Raioia actually snapped the ball when Hill never expected it.

Campbell's pissed. He is really pissed. You could see a change at QB.

For F**k Sake, can we please throw the ball PAST the marker on a 3rd down? JUST ONCE !

They'll win a couple of games this year. They play too hard for this coach, they don't quit and that will win them at least a couple of games (the 2008 team gave up before Thanksgiving).

14/23 120 YARDS, 0 TD, 1 INT. Lovely.
