I'm told that it's likely that I'll be introduced to Dantonio/Izzo on Monday at the Steve Smith golf outing.

I'm looking for something clever/fun to say to him (MD).

Suggestions?

Fun Bible verses?

You could ask him if he's going to change his name to "Lansing" after wrestling with Mike Hart, much in the same way that Jacob changed his name to Israel after wrestling with "god." LOLZ

I don't even know what that means.

It was an angel. Not God.

Ask them if they know that ancient Spartan warriors were homosexual and trained young warriors by linking them with an older veteran warrior part of who's job was to train them not to cry out during pain, which they accomplished (this is 100% factual, btw) through continual rough anal sex.

If I talk to him after his round, maybe I'll just tell him that it's not over, it's never over.

bukdow's MSU fandom makes a lot more sense now, thanks.

It seems to have been a pretty successful system btw. The Spartans were tough and their fame is well earned.

Get his thoughts on people that root for Universities they never attended.

Oh yeah, and then try telling him you're a Michigan State grad that roots for Michigan. I dare you.

lol

Hey, what about that Zipporah? She sure saved Moses` "skin".

Ask him about the rumors that he's the top candidate to replace Bill Laimbeer as coach of the Shock.

NICE Vin. NICE.

i dont have a very high opinion of bucky, but i'll say this: as far as i know, he's never even approached shedding a tear.

DISCIPLINE.

plant a giant Michigan flag in the middle of his golf bag....and you have to do it while screaming and staring at him

oh and wave it around first

I think this wins. Make sure to say "fun fact" to preface the comment.

Ask him if the rumors that he is himself a Gay Spartan are true.

Ask him how he feels about the likelihood he notches a top 10 draft class now that he got Boisture to play QB.

Go time.

IT'S NEVER OVER

so how'd this go?

I had plans of writing up a recap, but I was too lazy at first, then Curry got fired and then we threw up in Gordon/Charlie's laps.

Mark Dantonio – no show

Tom Izzo – It’s easy to see why the guy is a frigging rock star. I stood nearby and watched him sign every autograph that was asked of him, and he did it with a smile. He emceed the live auction and made a comment that came out waay wrong and it was hilarious. He was trying to sweeten the pot on an auction package that included some tickets to the game and some locker room passes. He added, “C’mon people, is $2,000 all we’re going to get for this? I’ll even throw in a signed t-shirt, hell, I’ll throw in 4 signed t-shirts, damn it, I’ll give you pretty much anything you want! You can even come in my wife’s private box!” You know that record scratching sound they use on sitcoms when someone says something and everything goes silent? I totally pictured that. It took him a minute to figure out why everyone was gasping in surprise and cracking up, but he played it off like a champ and even made a few more suggestive references to “having some alone time with my wife” he even said the winner could “stay at my house with my wife and kids and maybe I’ll take the kids out for ice cream for a little while”. Dude was hilarious, even if he lost his voice about 1 minute into the auction. If I had known that Curry was getting the axe the next morning, I would have loved to have asked him if he was interested in the Pistons job, and it would have been very easy to do so. In summary, MANCRUSH.

Other “B list” MSU celebrities spotted/in attendance- Terry Braverman, Mitch Lyons, Mike Peplowski (dude is a horse), Matt Stegenga, Shawn Respert, Steve Smith (of course), Tim Bograkos and probably a few more.

Justin Abdelkader- Somebody said he is 6’2”, but he looked much smaller and scrawnier than I would have imagined. He also looked like he was about 14 years old. At least he was cool and hung out with the peeps, signed, etc.

And if you made it this far, here is the best part….

KEITH NICHOL

They really busted his chops from the stage, kept making references to “what took him so long” to be a Spartan. I was actually surprised that they went at him that hard. He came up on stage and quietly mumbled a few things that I really couldn’t make out, even from right near the stage and with a boomin’ sound system. He seemed really timid (maybe embarrassed?). I wanted to ask him how his injured arm was doing, but never got the chance. He was with another young athlete named “Austin” something.

Well, that’s the recap. If I think of more, I’ll let you know.
