"Happy" about the situation?... "Happy" is a vast understatement for the way I feel about this entire matter.
I think the guy is a lunatic and lacking class. However, I wouldn't be surprised if he produces a spectacular football team over the next 3 years. Michigan doesn't want to find themselves in in-between land like the Pistons. If you're not #1, then blow it up and do what you think you need to do to get there. If it means a few losses to the Apalacian State/ Michigan State's of the football world during the transition, then so be it. By the way, I named my cat RichRod, so I may be biased.
I agree...it's either return to glory or tear it down and start over. I think RichRod the cat will be alive long after RichRod the coach is gone. As long as he's not playing in traffic or doing other risky things.
Whatever you do, please do NOT turn this into another dead cat thread. In fond memory of Muppet the Cat (aack gwarfppl) to those few of us who knew him so well.
Mouse did get hit by a car in 1988. He usually hung out in the backyard, so not sure what he was doing out front. You'd think cats would be more aware of cars. Feels really good to talk about this guys. If anyone else has any stories about how they lost their pets (even fish or dogs), please share them here.
Wolverines don't make very good pets due to their ferocity and tendancy to win more national championships than your team... woops, lost the analogy there.
I think there must be some sort of correlation between liking the wolverines and being interested in ancient history. We Sparties prefer current events.
A badger is a very tough animal, but understand that the wolverine is the most ferocious mammal in the animal kingdom. It would not lose to a badger. Also remember...Michigan is known as "The Wolverine State"
All it will take is this season for State fans to fall from grace in the state of Michigan. Michigan will win more games than state. It will happen this season. I just feel sorry for the state fans who will become our little brother again.
Come-on...admit it...DickRod embarrassed UM on national TV and you wish UM had a straight-up, no-nonsense guy like Dantonio Meanwhile, it's being rumoured that DR is in even more trouble for his part in a condo development company called Legends of Blacksburg, LLC. Details at 11
