Or he could team up with Vida Blue.

Well...no. That hatred…

Well...no. That hatred status is reserved for Ohio State. But the Avs made an excellent run at it.

I watched that game at an…

I watched that game at an absolutely raucous bar in Royal Oak. It was nuts. Mike Vernon pummeling Patty Roy. The crowd at the game, and in the bar, absolutely losing their minds. Maybe my greatest hockey memory. Only things close would be the 1980 Olympic win over the Russians and the 1997 Stanley Cup winning game against Philadelphia.

Aside: a different Avalanche memory...Marc Crawford losing his shit behind the bench and screaming at Scotty Bowman, who was wearing the classic Scotty smirk. Seems Scotty told Crawford that he knew Marc's father and he would be embarrassed by his behavior. Scotty was a world class shit disturber.

So Jim says McCarthy is the…

So Jim says McCarthy is the best quarterback at playing quarterback. I think Jim’s first love is coaching quarterbacks. And by his definition of the entirety of what a quarterback should be JJ is the best he’s ever seen at the collegiate level.

And Jim and JJ won a national championship together. What a ride.

So, was May inspired to coach by Norman Dale?

Interesting group of ex…

Interesting group of ex coaches. Three former NBA guys. A former NBA coach. And Rumeal Robinson’s high school coach.

And a three day growth of beard.

Our offense philosophy…

Our offense philosophy... powerful run game...is not conducive to recruiting big time prospects. That's also why JJ was downgraded as a draft pick which, I notice, is no longer the case.

I believe that would be the date the portal reopens.

Osborn is currently Biff…

Osborn is currently Biff Poggi's DC at Charlotte. But of course he has Ravens connections. The Harbaugh brothers loved to swap talent.

Hey John...you need you boy Macdonald to get some DC experience send him my way. You can have him back when you need him.

Hey Jim...this guy Jesse Minter worked for me. Really a great young talent. Run, don't walk, to hire him.

Hey John...thanks for taking my boy Jay and helping him get his feet wet in coaching. But I need him now in Ann Arbor.

Hey Jim...you got a young coach who needs coaching up? Osborn you say? Send him my way. You can have him back if you need him.

Bill Belichick coaching under Wink Martindale? Won't ever happen but the thought makes me smile.

That would be fergodsake. Spelling matters :)

 "He may want to hire for more competent people on his side." \

He should start with a REALLY good lawyer.

Assault Awareness? I know this guy is not a Spartan but…Can Sutton anyone?

My money is on Abdur Rahim

My money is on Abdur Rahim. He coached for Tom Crean. What more can you ask?.

Former American League…

Former American League President and former Boston Red Sox shortstop Joe Cronin. Oh, wait…he’s dead. 

English is a great language…

English is a great language where the words suck and blow can mean the same thing.

That blows my mind. Talk…

That blows my mind. Talk about a weird guy from a weird place. Duncan Robinson from D3 Williams. But good for Duncan and good for Beilein.

And I'm sure the local "authorities" in Columbus looked the other way.

To call Warde’s handling of the Mel Pearson fiasco incompetence is an insult to incompetent people everywhere.

Working for Brian Kelly must be its own particular brand of hell.

The antidote to Russell…

The antidote to Russell Wilson dead money? A good quarterback on a rookie deal. JJ McCarthy…come on down!

Indeed we should and I plan to. The Chargers are now my second favorite NFL team.

After about 40 years I just reread Catch 22. That is a masterpiece.

If he stays on the board until Day 3 he would be an interesting flyer.

Everyone steals signs? But what about player safety?

 It's the kids who are wrong.  

But who recruited them??

What!!???!!

First I’ve heard of it.

I never understood the…

I never understood the shotgun wedding of Jim Harbaugh and Josh Gattis. They knew each other for what, 48 hours? 

This whole thing is so…

This whole thing is so sleazy. I’m for players getting paid but there must be a set of rules governing how this works. And a real and enforceable mechanism for holding everyone accountable.

All of this depresses me. Money…money…money. Maybe I should just declare our National Championship as the apex of my Michigan football fandom and ride off into the sunset with a smile on my face. But then I suffer (sometimes) from the curse of self awareness and realize I’m addicted with no 12 step program in sight.

Look at how much bigger he…

Look at how much bigger he is than Will Johnson! Of the last three years this play is 1A. The full A belongs to Mikey Sainristil.

RB: budding greatness derailed by injury. Westland John Glenn’s Tony Boles. 
 

Boles has had a difficult life. Drug addiction, robbery, multiple incarcerations. Very sad.

I did click it. That's two minutes I'll never get back.

Me thinks Yzerman has already made his big in season move. Kane has looked stupendous. But, if Stevie can land a top tier goalie I wouldn’t object.

Am I crazy to talk up the Tigers? Winning a very winnable central is a reasonable expectation. I like their young players.

Wolverines, Red Wings, Lions, Tigers. Anyone missing?

No thank you.

No thank you.

You would think the NCAA…

You would think the NCAA would spend its time figuring out how to survive paying billions of dollars in legal damages. But they would rather rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic.
