not a huge maisel fan, but thought the end of this article was just so.......RIGHT ON!

Love your work. Just a quick thought. Was this maybe the greatest bowl season of all time? Even as a diehard Wolverine fan (don't even get me started on them), the Rutgers-ASU game, the (gut-stabbing) Alamo Bowl, UCLA-Northwestern, and the Cotton Bowl? And then all 4 BCS Bowls. Wow! I am utterly opposed to the BCS, but I must say, this year it was amazing. Every game was incredible, topped off by the Rose Bowl -- one of the greatest games I can ever recall seeing. And people wonder why I prefer college to the NFL??

On a side note, take a look at these results:
'04 Rose Bowl - USC defeats Michigan
'04 National Champs - USC
'05 Rose Bowl - Texas defeats Michigan
'05 National Champs - Texas

I don't know about you, but my money's on Nebraska for the '06 national champs.

Even when they lose, Michigan fans think the Wolverines are the axis on which the college football world spins

I was bored at work last night and not much was happening here on the Planet so I decided to check out a scUM fan site to see what the weasels have been talking about lately. Mostly they are pretty annoyed with all the press the Bucks have been getting about a possible preseason #1 spot. They think that we would be overrated at that spot and it wouldn't be fair to overrate us. I also found the following and I thought was pretty funny. I looked for 20 minutes and couldn't find it already posted here. I apologize if it has been.......


"Bud Light presents Real Men of Genius"
(Reaaaaal Men Of Genius)
Today we salute you, Mr. Delusional Michigan Fan.
(Mr. Delusional Michigan Faaaaaan!)
Season after season, year after year, you try to justify your absurdly high preseason ranking.
(Clutching at straws!)
Season after season, year after year, you scramble to make futile attempts at damage control when the Wolverines lose to a grossly inferior opponent
(How'd Northwestern score fifty fouuuuuur?)
Inevitably, you'll bring up the past, and boast of National Championships won 40 years before you were born.
(Those were the daaaaaays!)
You will point out that you have more wins than any other program as though that is relevant to the current season.
(Been playing since the 1870s!)
Go on, ignore that home loss to your archrivals in the regular season finale and continue to believe that you'll defeat your bowl opponent with striking ease.
(We'll win by thirteeeeeeey!)
So crack open an ice cold Bud Light, oh Emperor of Excuses, and take comfort knowing that when you don't finish in the top 25, you'll be back to number three when the preseason polls come out next year.
(Mr. Delusional Michigan Fan!)



The weasels didn't find it amusing but one came up with an Ohio State version in an attempt to make them all feel better. Here it is.......


"Bud Light presents Real Men of Genius" (Reaaaaal Men Of Genius) Today we salute you, Mr. Arrogant Ohio State Fan (Mr. Arrogant Ohio State Faaaaaan!)

Season after season, year after year, you couldn’t beat your archrivals on the football field with a clean program (sorry, Mr. Cooper!)

Finally, you hire Mr. Tressel, a dapper man in a sassy sweater vest, with a soft spot in his heart for lovable thugs. The program turned around, and as the wins on the field increased, so did the 911 calls in Columbus (“haaand me dat cell phone, biiitttcchh!”)

Never mind, Buckeye fans, what Maurice, Santonio, or Troy do on their own time. As long as they can run, catch, and pass on the field, you’ll always have a “get-out-of-jail-free card” in Tressel’s heart. And when the @#%$ hits the fan, fire errr… retire the Athletic Director, but certainly not the head coach (don’t let the doooooor hit you in assss, Mr. Geeiiggeerrr)

Rest assured on any given Saturday night in Columbus, there is a car being driven by a running back with $10,000 in cash inside, a rental house occupied by a defensive back & offensive lineman with $3,000 in cash lying around, or a quarterback sitting in a dorm with a crisp $500 bill in his back pocket provided by a booster (Mo’ money mo’ problems!)

Go on, you great silver nuts, ignore the fact that you are 57-39 against your archrivals, or only 5th all-time on the wins list; a little creative denial will allow you to be arrogant about your 5 year record. Keep believing that you’re an elite program and the benchmark of the Big-10, even though you haven’t even won your own conference since 2002. (Why can’t you even win your division?)

So crack open an ice cold Bud Light, oh Deacons of Denial, and revel in your recent success on the football field, processing your good fortune as much as intellectually possible given that you are ranked 11th in academics in the Big 10. Through the use of thugs on the field, bad academics, and selective statistics, you truly are Real “Men” of “Genius”!



Man oh man, why can't next November just hurry up and get here already. I typically try to avoid wishing my life away but damn I sure do want the next installment of "The Game" to hurry up and get here!

Go Bucks!

The Ohio State One does not even work. Just singing that many syllables to the song makes me run out of breath. Jesus, they have so many excuses, they'd need a whole book to make a Bud Light song about Ohio State. I like how they cite there all-time record as if they didn't even read the Michigan version of how Michigan fans are.

Also, my fingers ran out of control on Ohio State. I said the Buckeyes have seven starters returning on defense. No, they have seven starters returning, period. That's why the loss of three All-Big Ten players will leave a bruise.

Ummm...i'm confused on this one. 7 starters returning period? Where did he get that from?

And who are the Big Ten champs this year, anyway? The fact that TSUN fans make such a pathetic attempt to smear Jim Tressel says legions about what they think is coming their way, when IVLoyd becomes Vloyd becomes VILoyd becomes "an ex-Michigan coach pursuing other interests" under the "meep-meep" Beanie Express.

Folks, this is gonna get ugly for TSUN, real ugly.

Wait.. Do you people realize how FUCKING GOOD Michigan was in 1900, 1901, and 1902? I think that buys them a little bit of arrogance, dont you? :p

Hey, tOSU shut scUM out in Ann Arbor in 1900 (scoreless tie). :biggrin:

But they were really good in 1903 and 1904, also, although you could say they 'doctored' their scores.

Here are actual scUM scores from 1904:

scUM 72, Physicians & Surgeons (Illinois) 0
scUM 72, American Medical (Illinois) 0

They also had impressive wins over Beloit, Albion, Drake, Ferris St, and Case Tech during those years. I know I'm impressed (but I didn't attend any of those games). :wink2:
