Are you: Synergizing?

Like a motherfucker; I am sitting on my ass in my Dusk pajamas and sipping tea from my Ducks mug.  I have never been a car flag kind of guy myself.

[Ed Anger]

Awesome. Mangino might rage on the field and hit somebody. Bill's Synergy will keep him in check.

[Berkut]

I will be pulling for  the Buckeyes, I want them ranked as high as possible when the Ducks curb-stomp them in Pasadena.

Indeed. The Ducks should certainly be thinking about that upcoming Rose Bowl game, not to mention the Civil War game.

Nope the Ducks are focused on smacking the Wildcats around, only the fans are looking ahead to California on New Years Day.

Maybe they will have Blount to help them, he is good at smacking people around.

It should be a hell of a game.

I wouldn't be honest if I said I hoped it was a good game, I want the Ducks to end it early and blow them out; that being said this is the game that scared me the most after the USC win, more than the Stanford game at the time.

I am curious if they are going to give Blount any meaningful carries the rest of the way; his best case scenario, outside of injuries, is 3rd string/short-yardage back.  James is very clearly the #1 back and Barner should have the #2 back and kick return jobs locked up for the rest of the season.

[Berkut]

Oh yes, I don't WANT a good game - I want Arizona to get a couple early turnovers and build a nice 3 TD lead and then hammer the Ducks as they desperately try to come back.

I don't think that is going to happen though. If it is a blowout, it will likely be on the wrong side.

I hope they put Blount in.

I hope Michigan synergizes all over your fucking forehead.

   I just turned on the Colorado - Oklahoma State game, and there's immediately a <large number of yards> TD pass by the Pokes, who were behind, crowd goes nuts, band plays extra loud, etc, then Colorado takes the kickoff 98 yards to regain the lead.

Edit:  And why is OKState using a backup QB?  Who the hell is this guy?  Weeden?  He's kicking all kinds of ass. 

[MadImmortalMan]

Looks like The Photographer might get fired by the Fighting Irish. Good. It'll be nice to be able to root for them again without feeling like I have to take a shower.

He's on their baseball team.  He's already been drafted by the Yankees, I think.

Yeah, they were saying he got drafted in the second round back in '02, and was playing ~A level baseball before heading to Oklahoma State football.  Never heard of the guy until last night, when he came out slinging TDs all over the goddamn place (well 2, but hey).

[MadImmortalMan]

Buckeyes will wear this throwback uniform to honor the 1954 champion team.





Edit: Doesn't look that "throwback" to me, but the Bama-style helmet numbers are interesting. I hope OSU isn't jumping on the Nike bandwagon too.

[Ed Anger]

I've ingested 12 Tums so far. OPEN UP THE OFFENSE SENATOR.

[Ed Anger]

Jesus tapdancing CHRIST. Fucking Pryor. Take the goddamned sack.

[grumbler]

This is getting comical.  The worst thing is, OSU will assrape Michigan yet again, and RichRod won't be fired, setting up yet another assrape for next year.

I am just so glad that Bill Martin is retiring as AD.  He has been such a crappy selector of coaches, and has been focussed entirely on uglifying the sports complex, rather than maintaining quality programs.  Michigan football will surely have a new coach as one of the first things his successor does (because, it turns out, RichRod was really Martin's only candidate for head coach to replace Carr; Martin was absolutely convinced that the spread is unstoppable and wanted no one other than the best spread coach in the country).

Oh, and when did Martin take over as AD? When the slide began, in 2000.

Of course, there is going to be another loss to OSU following that change, but this game may become a rivalry game again after that.  Sorry, Ed, but I don't see Michigan having a competitive football team earlier than 2012.

Wyoming was really looking good when it was 10-10 in the second...then suddenly it was 24-10 and I am sending out for some of MBs tums.
