There is nothing left to be said. The media ought to be clamoring all over this one, but??!??

Two teams with a one win record met and Detroit came out on top. A football team from Michigan beat a team from Ohio. On Michigan soil. On a gray day. Down 24-3 at one point in the 1st quarter.

Now THAT'S news.

Are We Having Fun Yet?

.....go.....michigan.....

Somebody snuck a stupid red wrist band in my dresser drawer..........

Well it's here. Game Week. Imagine a history-making upset when the Wolverines suddenly wake up and the linebackers start hitting their assignments and the media tries to diminish the fact that it was a fluke. We know better.

Any of you True Wolverines Fans can take solace in feeling positive about this weekends match against the Evil Buckeye Nuts from Downunder and stop dreaming about spending New Year's Day in the Silverdome.

Michigan can still win this game. Did you forget 1969? The undefeated tOSU Bucks were beaten by Bo Schembechler and the spirit of Michigan that launched an era. As Bo put it,"These games interfere with practice."

And Coach Rod says," I think I hurt my elbow.............."

Go Blue

The Big Game

Buckeyes to Wear Tribute Uniforms versus Michigan

As reported in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the Ohio State Buckeyes will be sporting "high tech" replica tribute uniforms when they visit Ann Arbor next Saturday for the Big Game. It was mentioned that these uniforms allow the players to appear to "float" and turn invisible.

No matter that OSU has already locked up a BCS berth in the Rose Bowl.

It has been said that these uniforms are on par with the ultra-creative Cleveland Browns rather snappy "3 yards and a mud-filled hole" threads or even Penn State's infamous "blank stare."

Pistons, Wings Romp on Wednesday

Red Wings Crush Columbus 9-1

The last time the Wings scored nine goals was October 11, 2006, in a 9-2 home win over the Phoenix Coyotes.

Detroit Trips Bobcats 98-75

Even though the Charlotte Bobcats were expecting Detroit to be "weak" without 3 of their main starters, the Pistons played aggressive ball and some young talent racked up new respect and new record performance numbers.

What's It Going to Take to Win?

Seattle Rallies to Win 32-20

You would normally figure it is going to turn out alright when your team is leading 17-0. But not for the Detroit Lions. Coming into Qwest Field the Lions were looking to double their win total taking on a Seahawks team that was marginally worse at only 2 victories themselves, but, Detroit played Tom Turkey a bit too early in the month and served it up. Lots of gravy on the side. This nearly completed another disastrous sports weekend for local sports fans - but the Pistons actually beat Philadelphia so it was not a sweep....................
