SimPLLLLLLLe Jim "6-13" Harbaugh (B1G Suspenders McKhakiPants, Cheater Cheater Booger Eater)

I can remember when Michigan didn't have Peters. It was in 2015 they started to talk about what it would be like to have Peters. Imagine being the winning-est program in football history and going over 100 years without Peters.

Imagine the excitement that they might actually get Peters. The absolute Joy in April of 2015 when they realized they were in fact getting Peters. Then the anticipation of what it would be like to play with Peters. Followed by the impatience - when will Peters come?

Somehow they thought that having Peters would make a difference on the field. It didn't turn out that way. It is one thing to have Peters. But to have Peters perform is something else again. I can recall in particular two years ago when we beat them. What was their excuse? Injured Peters.

As I watched John O'Korn fritter away that game the camera panned to the sidelines where you could tell that all the coaches were thinking about - was Peters.

Then Michigan discovered this kid named Shea Patterson. Well, they said, if we have Patterson we don't care if we have Peters or not.

But the result on the field was the same. We never did get the chance to beat Michigan's Peters - and I am OK with that. I am happy that we have kicked their butt so often over the past 16 years (particularly when we beat their Butt from 2013 to 2016).

And what is the message from this story? Just ask any Michigan cheerleader...

"Michigan men perform the same whether they have Peters or not."

Now Illinois will get a chance to play with Michigan's Peters. Let's see if they can demonstrate that it isn't important that you have Peters, but that you know how to use the Peters you have.


Tune in next week when we discuss Michigan DL Ron Johnson and LB Peter Bush and how the Wolverines might utilize these two in combination.
Well done. You can say that M*ch*gan can be represented with Peters.

Once again I have to recommend the "All In" series on Michigan football from 2017. I watched the episodes covering the PSU loss, the Wisconsin and OSU losses and finally the bowl game loss.

They do such a good job of covering the team, and particularly Harbaugh, in detail.

I think they would make good recruiting films - if only Michigan will let Ryan Day use them.

Once again the wife asked me while watching that episode of "All in", "why are you laughing" OMG it was so great - No way I'm deleting from the DVR....
