The "M" Word

Michigan

There, I said it.

Fuck ‘em. Michigan is the most overrated program in college football history.

Do some research;

Since the invention of the face mask, which team has won more games? Penn State.

Most Bowl wins? Penn State.

Most Undefeated Seasons? Penn State. (UM did do 9-0-3 once, they actually count that….snicker)

Did you know that Michigan has never even played in, let alone won, a one versus two National Championship game?

Pathetic.

Yes, they won nine in a row. Three of those wins were bullshit, two outright stolen. A break or two and it’s 7-6 Michigan. Dominated? Not so much. The only reason any Michigan fan talks about Penn State anyway is because of their disgraceful record against Ohio State.

Here’s a T-shit idea - Hey Michigan fan; ask me about beating Ohio State.

This is the point, and it is very important, so listen carefully. When (yes, when) we beat Michigan, here is what I want you to do….

Nothing.

Not a god damn thing. Nothing. Don’t give them the satisfaction. Us acting like assholes when we win will be more gratifying to them than actually beating us. Do nothing. They suck, we’re good, period.

Do Nothing. Tell your friends. Walk out and go to the Paterno Library.

They have nothing we want, and frankly, nothing left to take.

Their uniforms are ugly. Their stadium is quiet. Their coach is a scumbag.

We’re better than them, win, lose or draw.

Lol @...

the going to the library part. But technically I won’t say we are better unless we win.

It's gonna be hard

To avoid walking up to any Michigan fan I see in public and do the whole “Those who stay…” routine.

But, I think you’re right. Don’t give these losers the satisfaction of attention. Screw ’em.

Love it Jesse

You are right and I wish to reserve a copy of your T-shirt from your store. Here’s to a severe asswhipping in Beaver Stadium next weekend. Bring on the new recruits!!!

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

Post-game Party

At the library! WOoooooooooooooo

Seriously, I think it’d be awesome to see the game get out of hand and the student section start emptying in the third quarter like we were playing Temple or something. If that’s not a smack in the face, nothing is.

I know, that reeks of overconfidence and the game will most likely be closer than that…but a boy can dream.

John Madden told me 90% of the game was half-mental...

When (yes, when) we beat Michigan, here is what I want you to do….

Aren’t you technically doing something BEFORE beating Michigan? Isn’t that even worse? This is pre-game, unbacked trash talk.

Here's an idea....

If there are any Michigan fans in earshot, complain about us always scheduling such cupcakes for Homecoming.

"Do nothing. Don’t give them the satisfaction. Us acting like assholes when we win will be more gratifying to them than actually beating us."

I’m sorry, but I’m gonna have to be an asshole if we win. I’m talkin’ walking around the neighborhood beating together some pots and pans style asshole. I’ll bring it to a whole new level up in this bitch.

I wish...

Michigan were better this year because I think we’d beat any kind of Michigan team this year playing at home. Here’s the thing about making a big deal of this probable upcoming victory: They will still have won 9 of the last 10 against us, and beating up on a 2-4 team is hardly cause for celebration anyway. As much as we all hate Michigan let’s save the trash talk for the day we beat a good Michigan squad. Let’s treat this as what it is: a win over a Purdue/Oregon State/Temple caliber football team. Then let’s move on to bigger and better things.

No doubt

These guys are bad, that is par of the reason for the post

I've been saying that basically all year

or at least since we started to see how terrible Michigan is this year, and how good Penn State is. I think Penn State’s team this year could beat any team Michigan has ever fielded (not saying that they’re necessarily better than any Michigan team ever, but that they’d at least stand on fairly even ground). I would love to have a win over a good Michigan team, but in all honesty I’ll just take a win over any Michigan team. This is one of those lose-lose situations. We lose if we lose (hey, I think I’m John Madden!!!), and we lose if we win (we were expected to win, and even if we win by 20 points someone will say that we should have won more, or that Michigan lost the game, Penn State didn’t win it, etc.)

I just feel a bit down because I won’t have the urge to be all “assholish” to proud Michigan fans about the win, since they are a non-existant species this year.

Also

I’m not making a big deal out of an upcoming victory. The point of the post was exactly the opposite. Michigan stinks, we’re better. We should win, so let’s not rush the field or otherwise act like assholes when we do.

Michigan does not have a magic spell over us. They never have. Their entire mystique is total bullshit. It was bullshit last year, and it will be bullshit in two years when they are good again. It will be bullshit until they have an undefeated season, play the number one or number two team in the country in a bowl game and win. Until that point they are a glorified version of Iowa.

If we were NFL fans, and some Cleveland Browns fan starting talking about their tradition, you would tell them to make it to a Super Bowl and then come back and talk some shit. But Michigan gets a pass, and that’s just bullshit.

Every statistic in my post true. Michigan is nothing more than a snappy fight song and 75 year old national titles. If we counted those we should all be bowing before "Nine Time National Champion" Pitt. Michigan’s biggest win in the last 50 years was when the beat Ohio State in 1968. They didn’t even win the Big Ten that year.

I know I'm a few days seeing this, but you're right on the money, Jesse.

Michigan’s hype machine is damn near as bad as Notre Dames (check out www.notredamesucks.org). They won one championship since 1947, and that was shared with the Cornfuckers. Most years they’re really not even in the running. Remember how after the 2006 season they wanted a rematch with Ohio State for the title, and then got absolutely smoked by USC in the Rose Bowl? They are so blind and fucking arrogant that they can’t even acknowledge the preferential treatment they get from the Big Ten referees and officials. I hope we absolutely beat the piss out of them, but I won’t even look at one of their fans, unless they’re stupid enough to talk shit.
