It is fine to support your chosen college, but once you start taking personal shots at each other, the conversation is over.

Keep it civil.

[Brooke]

Yikes.  The threshold for that seems amazingly low.

Anyway, to recount the part that I assume is acceptable, Masherbrum had said that Michigan hasn't done anything since 1997.

To which I replied:

1998, Big 10 champs, Rose Bowl winner
1999, Citrus Bowl winner
2000, Big 10 champs, Orange Bowl winner
2001, Citrus Bowl winner
2002, Citrus Bowl
2003, Big 10 champs, Outback Bowl winner
2004, Big 10 champs, Rose Bowl
2005, Rose Bowl
2005, Alamo Bowl
2007, Rose Bowl
2008, Capital One Bowl winner
2011, Gator Bowl
2012, Sugar Bowl winner
2013, Outback Bowl

There is something 40-41 different Bowl games.

By the way, I don't dislike Masherbrum -- I like jousting with him here.  I enjoy debates.

I enjoy a good debate as well, but even if you are best of friends.  Others read this forum, who do not know you or him and then assume it is okay to take cheap shots (not saying you or him are guilty of it, but a perception) at members of the community.

Agree completely and that point becomes lost in some teams fan bases.   Plazus and Dichotomy at least know football.   

HamHawk merely enjoys humping ankles and it took him about a year to hop on mine again.  I just moved my foot so he can jump on someone else's.

But there are only a handful of higher-prestige bowl games, where the ranked teams of that year will play.

You must really miss me on your ankle if you are counting the days...


I simply backed out of this debate because Nat and Brooke and handling you so deftly.

[Nathan60]

I mean just look at this guy:

(Image removed from quote.)

Won't be long til he bails out of TTUN. That is if he doesn't spontaneously self-combusts.

NO way will Harbaugh bail on Michigan, go watch the presser of his introduction when he starts talking about his kids wearing Michigan gear you can see the nostalga he also stated he wanted to be here permanently.  on top of that I think he honestly wants to see Michigan great, wants to pay homage to his school and bo and be compared to be compared to Bo as one of the great Michigan coaches.

[Nathan60]

I am very happy with this year for Michigan -- they are already doing way better than I had deemed likely.

And here is my daydream:
-- Ohio State beats MSU.
-- Michigan wins all its remaining games, including then the Big 10 championship vs. Iowa.
-- Michigan gets into the playoffs and wins it all.

538 says it isn't impossible!

I also would like to win the lottery.

If I do, I will buy all of you a beer, even Masherbrum.  He can even drink it out of an Ohio State glass.

Yeah I figured 7-5 MAYBE 8-4 but Michigan has a great chance to be 9-3 and a good chance to be 10-2 but then again who knows thats why the games are played but as I stated before this years team is leaps and bounds better than last years in preparation, coaching and mentality, not mention this staff can make 2nd half adjustments.

[Nathan60]

Also just gonna put this here


With that attitude how the hell is he starting over JT. as someone pointe dout it liooks like the team playes better for him(JT) and while I haven't seen much of Ohios games this year I noticed that was the case last year too.
