Michigan won the game!

[hungry]

I don't really know if Iowa is so vastly less talented than Michigan.

Yes, yes, we all know about recruiting stars from websites like Rivals and 24-7, that print out articles and want your subscription money.

Let's face it. We've pointed out the recruiting deficiencies that the program has had over the last few years. There are talented position groups. I don't know how much MORE talented they are than other programs right now.

I said this a couple weeks ago. If we are all OK admitting that this is an above-average program that sometimes has great seasons but will never win the big one, then yeah, we can get excited about yesterday.

Michigan did win the big one in ?97. Got jobbed a little bit because of politics but that was out of the coaches and players control.

Michigan will win the big one again one of these days.

I don?t know if the guy is entitled or not, but he doesn?t know what mid-major means.

I take it that he just meant that they are a lesser team/program, even though, they are in the same conference.

 

[tinselwolverine]

Is posting on a random message board about the woes of a team a way of holding the coaches and players accountable? Is it a rational way to demand the coaches coach better and the team plays better?

Or is just a way to vent out frustrated emotions?

I do it instead of ?reading a magazine.?

They might. They might not. That is what is so cool about the future. We don't know what is going to happen.

Yes, that is not what a mid-major is though.

Yeah. I'm not too big on magazines lately.

I have been reading The Witcher series lately. They are having a show on netflix soon fashioned after the series. Might be worth a watch.

True, very true.

In the episode with the Kim Kardashian clip that I posted a video of, ?reading a magazine? was a euphemism for using the lavatory.

Ah OK. The first time I saw your post, the video didn't show up.

You sound very entitled.

I can't tell if you are just messing with me or if you truly don't understand the difference between entitlement and accountability.

I understand it and I understand that you aren't holding anyone accountable. It just sounds like you're whining.

How is posting on this board that the performance on Saturday is unacceptable holding anyone accountable?

Are you contacting the athletic department? Are you withholding monetary support of the university until you deem the performance acceptable?

or

Are you just venting frustrations?

As Dubbs says, doing any of this is entirely your choice, but just posting on a message board that you aren't satisfied isn't holding anyone accountable.

It's simple , people are generally miserable fucks , and social media gives them the outlet they need to express that .

Eh, I guess. If we didn't have social media, people would be pissed off, but they would just be expressing it in regular conversation.

Completely disagree , i bet 85% of stuff people post or "say" on social media , they wouldn't say in real life or to someones face .

We are talking about two different things here.

Yes, social media gave people the chance to be pricks to other people.

But bitching about the team, complaining about the program, that's something sports fans have been doing since the first greek olympic games.

lol guess this is true , its weird i find myself bitching and ripping on my teams to other people and family when watching the games . But i will defend them and call out others who rip on them on social media or message boards haha

I'm consistent myself. The things I say on here are basically identical to what I say to my friends and other people I see in public. I've made it known I'm not happy with this program right now, because they have so much more potential. It's rough.

That?s just not true.

The first Greek Olympic Games were very collegial in every aspect. Even the fucking Spartans showed up and behaved like quasi-human beings.

It didn?t last very long because historically, when you put Spartans together they become a bunch of fucking assholes.

It wasn?t until the the third or fourth Olympics that the whole thing went to shit.

I loved it! We listened to Brandstatter and Dierdorf on the way up to Boulder and hearing the call of those sacks to end the game was better than watching the DVR later.


All game it was, "Iowa is so solid, never turn the ball over and running 271ypg"


"Michigan went from the top in the BigTen to 6th overall in Rush Defense when compared to last year" ....without mentioning we'd played ARMY who only runs and Heisman Horse Jonathan Taylor.




FIVE turnovers (most forced by the DEFENSE), Stanley's first picks in forever and held to ONE YARD RUSHING!!


Fuck it, it's a win! Quit bitching and moaning.


GO BLUE!
