Great post Tre. That post right there just got me jacked up! Only thing is, I probably won't be able to watch Michigan this Saturday, damn Big Ten Network! But, I'm definitely feeeeling the hype. It's time.
Something for everybody-

Great videos. However, I must admit, I only watched one. Nonetheless, great stuff.

It's long, but you got nothing better to do for six days. It's of special interest to UM fans...

It's on ESPN Classic at 5 tomorrow I think.

Interesting that you chose to use a computer generated graphic of the big house. especially one of a render that was an alternate idea to the approved stadium expansion plan they are going to do.

Let's try this again.
You're right Chris, that is interesting.
The person who made that rendering did a really good job of making it look authentic. It's wild how a rendering of an alternate idea ended up in an internet image search.
Most people probably wouldn't have caught that, nice work Chris!
I'm really excited for football now, must be because of this thread!

My bad Chris if that wasn't intended to be a "dig." I thought you were bitching about my pic and at this point I'm pretty fed up with that kind of stuff.

No. As a Syndicate, the last thing I would do is try and piss you off Tre. The intent of the Syndicate is to make things run good :)
I like a good debate though, but I try to keep things from getting personal.

That video is a cool idea (with the Eminem song), but I didn't like how the 2nd half of the video showing all the good ND plays were not all during the comeback. It had plays from the first half in there. It would have been a lot better video if the highlights were all during the comeback. That and the fact that it was ND and I can't stand them.
That 2nd half was disgusting.

Oh good god, 25 hours of college football on ESPN right now.

Thanks, Chris. I put up a video and all you do is criticize it and I'm supposed to SiT HErE and TAKE THIS SHIT??!!FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOUWAAAAAHHHHHHHH

I can handle one miracle comeback from ND when we've won like 9 of the last 12 or something. We've had like 3-4 game winning tds in the final minutes, so I can handle giving one.
Here is something I can't get enough of Zippy.

Actually, if msu defeats osu in basketball and/or football, I'll be very happy. Between the Tigers, Pistons, and UM, I am tired of seeing Ohio teams knock out my favorite teams. Plus, spending time in Ohio (especially Columbus) generally makes me unhappy, especially with their fucking cops waiting around every corner to give tickets. Essentially, I'm just tired of seeing Michigan lose to Ohio at everything the last year and a half.

Well played Tre, but only if you watch it with the sound off. They are ripping "the whole state of michigan" in their little song. So they are ripping the sparties too.
Those were two of the biggest choke jobs ever.

I'm not really an AC/DC guy, but that is just beautiful.
I favorited it, and I have no shame about it.

That "Friday Night Tailgate" show on the Big10 Network is actually pretty funny. It reminds me of some of the better public access shows that used to air in E.L. When I was at State.
The Lloyd Carr interview was hilarious

It was awesome. "Tupac vs. Biggie"? Who would have the guts to ask that to LC? Also, making fun of the Little Brown Jug with a subtle jab at Minnesota. "It's just a big cup". LOLZ.

Football is here and I am ready! This is nothing more than a rant about college football and that great time of year when optimism is peaking, fans are cheering, and the drums start beating. I'm talking college football baby. No more dog days of the summer, no more 18 hours of baseball tonight, and no more imaginary preseason matchups on ESPN. I'm ready for real, heart pounding, action packed, screeming on top of your lungs COLLEGE FOOTBALL. I've been easing into it like tip toeing into a cold pool at the start of June, but no more. Tonight, I officially man up, let out a big yell, and do a giant cannonball into the college football waters and I'm loving every minute of it. Just one day, one day and we will hear the deep pounding of the drums that seem to be insync with the pounding of our hearts as our pride and joy storm onto the field for the first time. As "We ready" and "Let's get ready to rumble" blast through monstrous speakers in stadiums, we kick back on the couch. Drinks and man food in hand, decked out in ridiculous fan gear (Nike of course) and smiles on our faces. It's that time of year when every Saturday feels like a holiday. When ESPN's College Gameday is as much routine as brushing our teeth. One week, one week and some douche will dot the "i" in Ohio, the M Club Supports You will raise up, the Trojan will pull out his golden sword, and Sparty will high step to mid field. We will all have one thing in common. We will all be watching the same thing. We will all have smiles on our faces. We will all be freaking ecstatic because college football is back!
Just started watching. How many trick plays have there been in this Boise/MSU game so far?

College football just ain't the same without Zip Goshboots and all of the good posters who were run off.
