With only 35 days or so before the kickoff, the Utah game notes are available on MGoBlue.com. My favorite thing about the 12 page document (outside the fact that Mike DeBord is no longer our offensive coordinator) is this corny Adamslike picture of the Rodriguez family.Yes, I know...TUOS fans will be quick to point out that Jim Tressel's kids would own DickRod's kids.
Other items of note: The Purdue game on November 1st will be our 1,200th game. The UM/Adidas deal is an 8 year contract and actually starts on August 1st. Justin Boren is not listed as a "starter lost". You can listen in Michigan football games in Little Rock, Arkansas on KASR (92.7 on the AM dial). Michigan Replay is now called INSIDE MICHIGAN FOOTBALL. Stephen Threet is listed as the #1 QB with an "or" next to Nick Sheridan. Sam McGuffie will wear #2, (the number he wore in high school). Justin Feagan will wear #5. Michael Shaw will wear Mike Hart's #20. Boubacar Cissoko will wear #33 - and for some reason his name is not included in the pronunciation guide. Everyone in the Rodriguez family has the initials RR (Rich, Rita, Raquel and Rhett). Rich Rodriguez has records of 2-8, 1-7-1, and 3-8 in his previous "first" seasons as a head coach (yikes). He has a perfect record (1-0) against Ohio. Both Scott Shaffer (DC) and Calvin Magee (OC) will sit in the booth, not on the sidelines. There are 7 former Wolverines in the NFL Hall of Fame.

Holy smokes Rita- tone down the hairdo- you're not in West Virginia any more...
They're creepy and they're kooky,
Mysterious and spooky,
They're all together ooky,
The DickRod Family.
They come from West Virginia,
Their culture will grow in ya,
It was nice to have been ya,
The DickRod Family.
"It was nice to have been ya,"
Did we perhaps lead another life there Whets?
The daughter might be something in about 10 years. Otherwise that woman's hair is quite scary. But I don't think he married her for her smarts.
Hamster,
"It was nice to have been ya"
Context, context, context.
Translated: Michigan, say good-bye to your former culture. You've been Rod-ed.

I fear we're being coached by K-mart......
"I fear we're being coached by K-mart......"
Don't go soft on me, T-9. I just bought an outrageous amount of stock in chocolate milk.
Body by milk... hair by electricity.
LOL BAH
LOL
I have to chime in about the hair......I think it might be catching on here in A2 though, the last few weeks I have noticed a number of women with teased up sprayed hair.....wtf? I can only imagine what they must say to their hubbies at bed time!
The 80's are back in style
to think that just a few years ago my kids laughed at me over still wearing sperry topsiders- now they're the rage amongst the teen fashion set.
Sung to the tune of - well, you know:
Almost heaven, West Virginia
80's fashions, Ladies with big
hair-doos.
Movin' up now to the Harvard of the West
High expectations destroyed by sweater-vest.
(All together now)
Country Roads, take me home...
well, that bordered on clever, whets.
All right. Since no one else is going to ask:
What's a "sperry topsider?"
My guesses:
1. A shoe with the tongue outside
2. A haircut (Mid-west mullet)
3. Those stupid cowboy shirts with the shoulder section different than the rest of the shirt.

T-9,
I resisted the urge to look on the net figuring guessing was more fun. Sigh. All business, I see. I was close with the shoe guess.
After viewing your link, I was going to make fun of SiC for being an elitist "boat shoe" wearing snob until I realized I own the Mako two-eyed canoe moc boat shoe. "Ouch!"
the way i figure it, preppy comes back in style (in one version or another) every 15-20 years.
so about every other decade, i'm a trendsetter. the 20 years in between i'm an elitest old fogey clinging to the styles of my youth (or my guns & religion, if you prefer).
i'm comfortable w/ both.
who knows? maybe someday i'll take whets sailing? sounds like he may already have the shoes for it...
you had some pretty good guesses there too whetstone, but you just really needed the complete catalogue of sperry topsiders to get the whole picture.
now--if you were REALLY cool, you will have figured out how to "tie" the laces into curls....
T9,
the curled laces is a nice touch, but there are two elements that more important-
1) they have to be "worn"- the key to the topsiders look is to have a pair (or two) that look well worn already when they come into fashion. nothing more important than to be able to say: "these? oh, i've been wearing these for years". &
2) no socks. never, ever wear deck shoes w/ socks. no matter the weather or the event.
maybe tomorrow we can tackle the tricky question of whether you really want to wear lacoste or izod? it's not as easy as it was in the '80's.
