What the hell is that

Anti-Irish stuff. I thought it was cute, if tempting the Gods a bit.

Holy shit I love that flag.

Also I have a Texas shirt that Lids sent me by mistake.  Too bad it's long-sleeve or I'd wear it when I'm watching the game.

So apparently the college football experts have the Michigan opener as a gimme, since they have a "cupcake" game against Utah.

Get new experts.  Michigan is a 6-point underdog in that game, and rightfully so.

:lol: I knew you would dig it.

Yeah, I mean I'd pull for ND ten times out of ten over Texas, but I still think that flag is kind of awesome.

:) Yeah it works.  Where'd that come from, are there more, and has Bill in Sinton been heard from in a while? 

Valmy

I got it from Shaggy. Who the original maker was I have no idea.

I have not heard from Bill in years.

Who could possibly trump Popular Mechanics as college football experts?

The Utah sites are full of the whole "Michigan players are saying this is a cakewalk," but that's obviously a lie because Harbaugh has had the players "in the submarine" since the start of camp.  No press access (except for the one-day B10 Network broadcast they do from each camp), no leaving the facilities (he even has them staying in non-AC dorms to heighten the discomfort) except when necessary for academic preps, nothing.  Total focus on football.  Nobody's heard a peep.  It's kind of an interesting introduction to the Harbaugh culture, but, unlike Bo's intro, nobody is leaving.

Caught a glimpse of an ESPN feature article about all the uniform updates for this year.  Wish I hadn't.  The out of control uniform shit is helping push me away from college football.

Under the new coach Wyoming went back to basics.  One home set, one away set for uniforms.  If not having Cowboy-Camo jerseys drives off some recruits, having a coach that actually wants to focus on playing better might eventually mean a better team...

Harbaugh's done the same: one home uni, one away.  And, for the away uni, he's gone back to the all-whites from the 1970s:
