My bad Yert....In fairness though, you can't post something showing Desmond in the endzone, say you want to punch something, and not expect people to jump to conclusions.

Not sure how to change the screen capture on a youtube video. I'm open to learning if you know how. But, it's a pretty sweet video... if you have 2 minutes to watch. Seems like people can't spare the time though.... that's right Kyle, I'm talking to you. SLLLLLLLLAP!

Maybe you could explain your fucking video instead of assuming everyone here is so eager to get inside your head that they'll click on a video that has Howard running down the sidelines in it's screen cap.

That was a traumatic experience for most here.
It's ike going to a holocaust surviver website and posting a video of Hitler being beat up by Anne Frank with the screen cap being Hitler looking menacing and saying the video makes you want to punch stuff.
Except that wouldn't be as bad. This IS The Game we're talking about here, not some war stuff.

It's a video about the rivalry. It shows enough to incite rage on both side.

They Heisman pose, tearing down the banner, the Wolverine killer, etc.

Detroit News notes the OSU fans are getting their tickets and will likely take over the stadium.

http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20131126/SPORTS0201/311260034/

Brian takes the gloves off and lays into Hoke over some pithy comments at his most recent presser:

http://mgoblog.com/content/fickle

In Michigan's specific case, they have beaten Ohio State once in the last nine years and are two-touchdown home underdogs. They are getting gouged on ticket prices in an unprecedented fashion. The athletic department has made it absolutely clear that it has no loyalty to them with "dynamic pricing" that only goes one way. Up.

There is a breaking point for even the most zealous fan. I'm the guy with the blog that's his career and I'm at mine. The only reason I am going on Saturday is because I would feel shame at not going. Absent the weird moral imperatives of fandom, I would be doing anything else. Like bowling, which I hate.

Everybody in blue in that stadium—and it will still be a majority, probably—is paying for the privilege of having their heart punched. Unlike you, they are not getting three million dollars to watch Michigan shuffle around like a syphilitic pig who thinks everything's a truffle. Collectively they are in fact giving you those three million dollars. Collectively they built the stadium you play in and the opulent locker rooms you dress in.

So take your "fickle" and shove it. Angry, sure. Impatient, sure. Because we are locked into this thing we do every week that we pretty much hate. We do so out of a sense of loyalty that the program goddamn well doesn't reciprocate with its 500 dollar waiting lists and worst access level in the country—the team that is going to stuff you in a locker on Saturday has open practices in front of the entire student section—and scheduling goddamned Appalachian State because the athletic director thinks it's cute. Any reasonable person would look at the recent history of Michigan football and go do anything else. We're here because we're locked in.

You? You've got a buyout.

It is not the fans' fault that this program is awful to be a fan of. It's not Rich Rodriguez's fault. Anyone who sells their ticket for whatever they can get—currently 60 bucks and dropping from 80 yesterday—is only making a logical decision to not get punched in the soul dong on Saturday.

*coughs, starts talking in ESPN blowhard voice* In the National Collegiate Athletic Association, to win football games, you need to run the football and stop the run. In this football game Ohio State can do those things better than Michigan so I expect them to win the football game.

First of all, it's not MY video. I found it and posted it because I thought it was cool.

Second, do I REALLY need to explain that video to you??? REALLY??? If you need the video explained, maybe you should turn in your Buckeye-fan card and just go home. But, I'll humor you... It's a sweet collection of what makes THE game the best rivalry in all of sports. And yes, some of the highlights are for the wrong team. But that's part of what makes a rivalry a rivalry. We aren't rivals with Indiana for a reason...
