Motor City Sonics Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I went to a Pistons finals game at the Silverdome when they were at the Lakers. When they introduced the players from the Lakers and showed pictures on the big video board they gave them horrible haircuts and distorted their faces. Now someone would get fired for that. Norm Nixon's feelings would be hurt so bad, he'd seek therapy now. IT was pretty funny at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinzaki Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 It's a picture of Hitler...yeah nobody wants to see that...but c'mon is that really worth all the wailing and gnashing of teeth? It's not like they posted a picture of Dylan Mulvaney drinking a Bud Light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 i dont think the hitler picture is a huge deal. it was a trivia question, for goodness sake. its just fun to laugh at sparty. their overreaction at spygate ("we need to worry about the health and safety of our players"), makes them ripe for trolling.

buddha Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 michigan state had more pictures of hitler than points is a tweet that will last forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIguy Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 This is going to get bad. Michigan is going to end up with the last two seasons being vacated, costing them a couple Big 10 titles and wins against Ohio State. I think it also ends up leading to Harbaugh finally bolting for the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The talking points from the NCAA are already being eviscerated in the nat'l media & it won't withstand public or courtroom scrutiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michigan fans denying reports isn't exactly "eviscerating talking points". If this report is true and they have receipts for these ticket purchases, Michigan is screwed. Additionally, they say there is video evidence of people filming the benches during games. Edited October 23, 2023 by MIguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 im buying it, i just think its a common thing. but they got caught because michigan is good again and people are pissed about it. the ncaa hates harbaugh and loves to make an example out of michigan. so be ready for vacated wins and championships plus bowl bans. so it really means harbaugh will go back to the nfl. hope they win it next year because the ncaa is going to come down on michigan like a ton of bricks.

buddha Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 remember when harbaugh led off a big ten press conference by saying ohio state was doing illegal practicing (or something like that) and ryan day through a fit? well, ryan day just threw it back in harbaugh's face. the difference is the ncaa hates harbaugh and will make michigan pay for it.

MIguy Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I don't doubt for a minute that other teams are doing the same thing. The problem here is that Michigan was dumb enough to do it using a dude on the staff who was buying the tickets in his own name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The degree to which this has entered my non-M fan peer group's social consciousness and is being used against me as an M fan is already beyond acceptable.

romad1 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Either on twitter or on MGOBLOG or somewhere i saw some report about the Michigan trustee who hates Harbaugh and loves Hoke who supposedly has been leaking all the dirt. Its an accusation and may not be fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a story out there that supposedly people were begging Don Brown to change his signs and Harbaugh reacted with indifference to that...then they got blown out by OSU. Perhaps, there is a bit more to this story. Edited October 24, 2023 by romad1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIguy Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 (edited) The simple fact here is that Michigan is the team being investigated so the talking point that "everyone else does it" really isn't valid. If everyone one else was doing what Michigan is accused of doing, those teams would also be under investigation. Really amazing to see people living in such denial of the hammer that is surely going to be dropped on the program when this investigation concludes.

Is it not a big deal that a sideline staffer of the team was buying tickets for games featuring future opponents and shooting video of the sidelines?
