When you follow winning big with a season with a dim outlook, I guess interest falls fast. Maybe folks just want summer to continue and aren't ready for September?

I think 9 maybe 10 Ws if they steal one. Oregon will be tough and Ohio will be pissed and it's in the horse **** so that'll be tough. Texas is the other one that could be an L Go blue!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

College football being in a state of total chaos, anything is possible. It's usually foolish to count on anything with a team with an untested QB, but it's possible a not very effective M offense will be enough against a bunch of other teams whose chaos has been even greater than M's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The high school season starts tonight. Or, as I like to refer to them for the clarinet player in the house, Marching Band Fridays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casimir Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 In a tangenty audible back to the topic, one of the teachers on my wife’s team has a son that plays for his high school (different district than ours). That mother/teacher volunteered for this game to cook the Thursday post practice meal. And the son/player just came down with COVID. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense to have a UM football discussion in a political thread. The biggest booster of the UM program is Stephen Ross. He’s also one of Trump’s very good friends and largest contributors. In a sense, Trump and Michigan football are joined at the hip. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him at a few games this year wearing maize and blue and singing Mr.Brightside with the students. Maybe he’ll show up at @pfifetailgate and eat all the food and leave without tipping. Edited August 23 by Hongbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least they would have to turn off all the field mics and do a sterile audio to keep the non-stop "F*** TRUMP!" chant from going national.

I also sort of doubt Sherrone Moore is going to be a source for the occasional conservative culture warrior statements Harbaugh was good for that must have endeared him to some donors. but who knows?

Agree, it’s not happening. But if Stephen Ross ever would want to bring Trump to a game, nobody is saying no.
