What's your top 3 in your collection?

Anyone else notice Metellus destroying the ref on this play? https://youtu.be/LJIpF4w3sV8

I ranked up relatively…

I ranked up relatively highly online and stopped about two-three weeks ago. It's still in beta and will be for another month or two while they test and develop more content (including multiplayer story + game modes). 

Not a total waste of time if you play online, but it will be more engaging later. I'm actually telling my friends not to play online now because I don't want them to lose interest and I'm assuming it will be better later. In the meantime, it's good if you don't mind grinding.

Just got my shirt today in Portland, OR after placing an order on Oct. 21. Looks great! Size medium fits me perfectly and I'm a 5'9" dude, about 150 lbs with broad shoulders, stunning jawline, scars with intrigue, etc.

Amazing crowd and great…

Amazing crowd and great experience. Normally seated section 17 was standing literally every play. 

Love it. Never bought from…

Love it. Never bought from MGoStore but will now. Anyone know if this shirt (or others) are men's sizing? Or unisex? 5'9" and trying to decide between S or M.

Hi Discord mods - could I…

Hi Discord mods - could I please be vetted for the Discord server? My discord username is Peterman and I just submitted the request using the vetting website. Thanks for the work you do!

I started doing this

Also started downvoting people with flairs of the teams around us. Maybe that's below the belt but hey - in a way it's doubling your vote?

To what extent does r/CFB karma matter?

And should we subtly start a reddit posbang thread for any Michigan posters? 

Beilein Swaggable

“Overdose on swag” spoken reaction to the reporter’s Jordan Poole question. Glad you jumped on that for meta tags and looking forward to seeing it pop up again in the future. Delighted to see the good guys usher in the exit of the man bun from the tournament.

Dunc gif?

Don't suppose anyone would know where we could find a replay/gif of Duncan's block last night?

Yes

These two are best taste/value for me and what I’ve seen in this thread. Others that have also been mentioned and are similar to these two are Elmer T Lee (~$30-35 in Oregon where I live) and Angel’s Envy. Grass Widow also very good but not as smooth if that’s what you’re into. In a separate category of taste to me are Booker’s and Elijah Craig, which are terrific despite an alcohol content that may spook some.

Asking the important questions, indeed

And when I say "no, sorry" is when people stop paying attention to anything I have to say afterward.

Not really, but...

Have you had any informationals with people at Nike? That tends to be a popular way to get in.

Translation

Sure!

His first note: "FLUSH TWICE. It's a long way to Ann Arbor, MI. Go Ducks!"

My response: "Congratulations on your team's victories against mid-majors Iona and Rhode Island! Michigan basketball is 4-0 all time vs. Oregon basketball. If you are still interested in viewing the game despite it being unrelated to football season, it begins at 4:09 PM on Thursday. Go Blue! PS - I will only flush a second time if the duck doesn't make it on the first flush."

Coworker

This particular coworker repeatedly told me he only cares about football earlier this season. I gotta give him credit for making an attempt to talk trash when the opportunity presented itself. He also said something about the game being on Friday, hence the gametime reminder in the message as well.

PS on second image says...

"I will only flush a second time if the duck doesn't make it on the first flush."

Sorry about formatting. Relatively new to this.

About BTB

As someone who was also in high school when BTB opened, I 100% agree with Ace. Especially the comment around familiarity breeding contempt. Every time I'm back home in Ann Arbor, I make it a point to go to BTB once during every trip. I'm disappointed by the dry contents of my burrito every time but dammit if nostalgia doesn't keep me coming back for how good I perceived it to be in high school.

*Editing comment to acknowledge that their cheese is good. Now I'm craving a shitty burrito.

Wait...

Do you mean to say there are uncracked asses?!

MSU Also Sets Program Record!

With an inferior number to Michigan, at 22.

It's great to see

The best, most deserving teams playing for all of their conference championships - how exciting!

Agreed

Look at the results of the top 10 today. No way Michigan is worse than 6th in CFP. If UM wins next three games, including BTC, then its onward to the CFP.

Ticket Prices Subplot

Subplot A: Ticket prices go down because all rivals are losing.

Subplot B: Ticket prices go up because all Michigan fans realize how special this team is.

Thank you, Seth!

Got what I came for

To think I was actually worried as I scrolled down... wondering if Ace had somehow missed the double bell-- oh thank god. I would love to see the student section all doing the belly rub in unision while loudly humming "MMMMMM!" ...Unless they already do this and it hasn't been on TV yet?

Drop it, Mark!

Drop it, Mark!

Woke up feeling like Christmas morning.

Giddy. Felt like if I were a kid I got the one big present I wanted, though maybe mom and dad got into a fight and my brother started smoking again. At the end of the day, at least I still get to play my new N64?

Text replacement on iOS

When I type #shrug, it autocorrects to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Evans

I did the exact same thing - complained about Evans not breaking tackles after he got lightly tripped up only to eat my words the very next play. It feels good that we can associate first world problems with Michigan football again, and even better that they're really not problems at all.

UFR vs. PFF

Through four games - are there any glaring discrepancies between UFR scores and PFF scores? If so, how can this be explained and what could we expect going forward?

Politics be damned

We can all rally behind GIFs of refs being unexpectedly doinked.

27-20 UM wins

27-20 UM wins

Meta tag

Could I humbly request a tag of "trained assassins" on this post? You know, for all the times it's relevant in the future to speak of our D-line in that way.

Went to watch the swim move at 2:46 and then...

Saw the QB getting demolished the play just prior. Poor guy. If it weren't the guy that got to the QB, CM-H would have got him too after speeding around the RT.

People helping people

Agree that it's nice to have tangible goodness come from unexpected places (e.g. job from a posting on mgoblog). If any Wolverines out there are looking for work, I ended up finding my luck from meeting someone at an alumni event in my west coast city. Just another avenue for finding employment if people haven't tried it yet.

Can't wait for Fall 2020

Someone who was in 8th grade last month is participating in our camps and seemingly doing well. Jack Ryder seems like a classic QB name to boot. Hope things pan out for the kid.

Defense?

Do bball highlight videos ever include defensive highlights? Is it even necessary? As a casual fan, I'd like to see this but I also suppose coaches could use plenty of other tools to assess defensive instincts or form. 

WELL OKAY

I stand by my vote for punt demo though WELL OKAY is receiving a lot of backlash for some reason that I don't think is fair. I think that gif has great merit to it as it demonstrates that Harbaugh lives his life in one way and one way only, as shown in this gif when yelling at the refs or acknowledging them. I don't think it's a stretch to imagine a similar Harbaugh ordering doughnuts at Washtenaw Dairy while discovering that they're out of sprinkles.

WELL OKAY also has a funny kid toward the end in a blue hat that can't seem to stop mouth breathing.

NJ HS Coaches

Decidedly satisfying to have followed that link and thumbed through the slide show. Great pictures - Erik Rosenmeier looks to be dominant at all things ice-bucket-challenge related by an utter lack of reaction.

#5 Sea of Khakis

Not to be underestimated in the #5 seed fist bump is the veritable sea of khakis present in the GIF.

That is...

Mesmerizing. 

Also...

Will Vergollo (video analyst / always-seen-on-the-bench-guy) is also departing, following LJ to UW-Milwaukie as assistant coach. Good for him.
