If your a Michigan fan, Sparty fan, tOSU fan, you're all welcome to comment here...even anonymously.<BR/><BR/>This blog is wide open. I trust in my readers to conduct themselves with a certain sort of civility when posting.<BR/><BR/>But this is getting out of control. Keep your foul language on you own site Wolverine Liberation Army members. <BR/><BR/>You criticize me for going crazy over a sticker, but it's you all who are trolling the Michigan blogs commenting on how stupid we all are for having our own opinions.<BR/><BR/>I can handle the comments, but please...keep the bad language on your blog.bradhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12461922401423018132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38907489.post-26802776677446570722009-01-24T00:45:00.000-05:002009-01-24T00:45:00.000-05:00'Fever Pitch' wasn't 'a story.' It was non-fiction. And it was a great British book that was eventually turned into a shitty American movie. <BR/><BR/>I've seen Michigan players at Ann Arbor bars after losses. They're disappointed, to be sure, and the mood around town is pretty somber after a loss, but that doesn't mean you can't go out and have a laugh with your friends.

There's more... he went to grad school in Columbus! And he had a golden pants pin! Which he kept even when he coached at Michigan!<BR/><BR/>Don't do it Brad! There's still plenty to live for!

Do you honestly think writing multiple blog posts spitting on Morgan Trent is going to make anything better? Is the next great QB or OL recruit going to take a second look at Michigan because some fuckwit blogger went crazy...<I>over a fucking helmet sticker</I>? Are current players going to go "whoah, we were slacking for awhile and we were just letting OSU beat us, but have you SEEN the blogs? They are <I>pissed</I>! Now we <I>have</I> to beat the buckeyes!"...?<BR/><BR/>Second, I don't know what you mean by "players are in on the joke." Do you honestly think that Morgan Trent thinks his career and his time at UM was a "joke" simply because he never was on a team that beat OSU? Do you honestly think he believes his alma mater is a "joke"? What is the "joke" that you are referring to?<BR/><BR/>To sum up: you are unrepentantly angry at a guy who has, as far as we know, given 4+ years of his best efforts and contributed as much as he can to succeeding for his/your/our team...all because of a fucking helmet sticker.

At least that's how I explained it my wife when adults in Cincinnati dropped an F-bomb at her in a mall when she wore a U of M shirt, or when two grown men at the 2002 OSU-UM game whizzed full beer cans at some females I was with, and then sucker punched me when I, you know, suggested they were a-hole thugs and should tone it down. That it was just a college rivalry.<BR/><BR/>But, um, yeah, 1000 curses on you, Morgan Trent. <BR/><BR/>This is beyond stupid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38907489.post-66589381575875113382009-01-23T15:10:00.000-05:002009-01-23T15:10:00.000-05:00First of all, players do take it just as seriously as I do. Take a look at some video of the Ten Year War. <BR/><BR/>Fever Pitch was a story (and not a very good one). I know exactly what you're talking about though. But the point is those were professional baseball players being paid millions of dollars. Not college football players (mostly) playing for the love of the game. There is a huge difference there. But I see your point.bradhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12461922401423018132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38907489.post-91325871202325303172009-01-23T14:58:00.000-05:002009-01-23T14:58:00.000-05:00Regardless, I don't think anyone has to worry about Morgan trent's pro career being long lasting.

RR had a month and a half to recruit him and the fact that he had Michigan in his top 2 or 3 is pretty impressive.<BR/><BR/>I can't believe you pansies get so worked up over a Buckeye sticker gracing "the most iconic helmet in CFB history." This is pathetic, and I know this has been said a million times but he is a 22-23 year old kid having fun with people who went through the same things he did.<BR/><BR/>I hope all of the seniors who participate in the these all-star games next year do the same thing so you can write..<BR/>"May your football career die a horrible tragic death."

You really think that a Wolverine player and Buckeye are incapable of being friends?<BR/><BR/>There a passage from "Fever Pitch", when, after watching his beloved Arsenal lose to Man U, the author runs into 3 Arsenal players at the bar, partying. There he is, miserably drowning his sorrows, and he sees three Arsenal players laughing, yelling, and having fun. It's what they do, and they're not going to limit their social interactions because of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38907489.post-23919898218849744732009-01-23T13:45:00.000-05:002009-01-23T13:45:00.000-05:00Yes, round and round. That's kind of what we do best. As far as I see it, Michigan fans should be pissed. When I saw Trent's little helmet decoration, I was in a room with 4 other Michigan fans and we all had the same reaction.<BR/><BR/>Maybe at WLA things are alright with the ship, but from my perspective, Michigan is slipping. Especially to tOSU. First we can't beat them, then Pryor, then Boren, and now our own players are in on the joke.<BR/><BR/>I'll let it go when we finally beat them again...whenever that may be.bradhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12461922401423018132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38907489.post-52649233359891629002009-01-23T13:12:00.000-05:002009-01-23T13:12:00.000-05:00Maybe Morgan Trent just wants to advocate for reform of our drug laws, did you ever think of that?<BR/><BR/>And round and round we go with the irrational bitterness about a fucking sticker. <B>Let.It.Go</B>.cfaller96http://www.blogger.com/profile/15417003134046992615noreply@blogger.com
