M-Borg vs. THE Flavortown U Thread, Orig. by Buckeye Paul, absconded w/by talent.

[Rocky Bleier]

I'm only staying for you guys b/c M will finally get a win.

Right. Ever the altruist. You're only saying M will win so you can crow if they don't.

[iam416]

I give up. Have you seen Hi State run plays when they have the ball? They should beat IU and probably Purdue on talent alone. Penn State? -- I'm not sure any team can win that game. 0-0 going into the 15th OT. Michigan? clearly, M will score at least 10 points, which is probably 3 more than need (in case of a ST/D TD).

But sure, I'm just saying that.

[lineygoblue]

Then maybe you should leave.

You aren't doing anyone any favors by hanging around "because M will finally get a win". If we win in November, I won't be celebrating with any osu fans. I'll be celebrating with my fellow Michigan fans. I won't give a rats patoot what osu fans are doing. That's the way I've always celebrated a Michigan victory. We don't need your feigned "congratulations", and we don't need you here just so we can have an ohio fan to beat up on. I think our celebration will be just fine without you.

And, a victory is not assured, by any means. ohio certainly has a team with enough talent to win.

If you win, it doesn't change a thing. Your university still has a fundamental problem with what is right and wrong, and fair play. Of that, there is no doubt. The longer fans like yourself sit by and count up the shallow victories, and allow these things to happen, without demanding change .. the worse your program will suffer in the future. It will happen, count on it.

So, stay if you want, or leave if you want. The door swings both ways. Personally I am tired of your condescending attitudes toward us, and I intend to take a time out from responding to any of your posts for the immediate future. I will only respond in my role as a mod, if necessary.

I saw Notre Dame dominate Michigan for 3 quarters. I saw Michigan beat 3 other mediocre opponents. I saw a t*su defense hold MSU pretty much in check. Braxton Miller will improve each week. Quit yer sandbagging.

Liney,

I told my first wife the door swings both ways. She left. :-)

[lineygoblue]

That's not her in your user pic, is it?

[Rocky Bleier]

I'd be the biggest fool ever born.

[UMStan White]

So Talent, to which client do you bill the time you spend in this forum trying to defend the indefensible?

[Jeff Buchanan]

Stan .... you are alright. I don't care what they say.

[Jeff Buchanan]

Well, pretty much how I feel about most osu fans, not talent in particular, they can go fuck themselves. I enjoy all of them being around here but they should fully understand that as a Michigan fan, I could give a crap on whether they post here or not.

I think its pretty clear that delusional osu fans, this time including talent, do try to defend the indefensible. When your soul has been defined by something you believe in it is nigh impossible to turn your back on it and walk away. I understand this because of my 45 year affiliation with the University of Michigan, my father's affiliation with it, my grandfather's and a large number of my extended family including my son, now a graduate, who played Hail to the Victors, along with his three sisters with one finger on the piano by the time they were each 3.

That is what this about for talent. His blood runs scarlet and gray. I respect that. When your soul's grounding turns out to be corrupt, it's pretty difficult to face. But the odds are overwhelming that tressel and the administration he left behind is corrupt .... Big Time. The conspiratorial nature of what's been going on at osu will never come out in the end though because as it has been pointed out on numerous occasions, the NCAA doe not have the resources to get to the bottom of it. And what purpose, besides delighting Michigan fans, does it serve.

I suspect ultimately the NCCA, as a result of the repeat offending of devir posey, is going to get slapped with FtM and LOIC. They're going to pay some price for that. It won't be enough for me and it won't be enough for most Michigan fans.

I will say, I'm amazed at talent's view that the simple reporting of violations of the NCAA rules defines compliance. That's like saying I won't lose my driver's license if, after having been caught and fined for driving 70 in a 55, in an effort to avoid additional punishment, I call the police to let them know I've been driving my vehicle at 70mph on several occasions. Sure, they'll say, that's fine as long as you tell us you're doing it. Carry on. Abiding by the rules implies that you will do so when the police aren't watching.

[Rocky Bleier]

Like Mongoose and Cobra, we are what we are and can't be friends.

[DennisT]

It takes a special kind of asshole to hang out at the other team's forum. No loss if he leaves. No gain if he stays.

[Rocky Bleier]

And now for something completely hilarious:

[DennisT]

Gee is unequivocal in his support of athletic director Gene Smith.

Good. Glad to hear it.

[hack]

Doesn't have to be an asshole -- that role can be played in a manner far more reasonable and cordial.
