It Was Going To Be Hard To Win
Them All
Michigan was one of 6
ranked teams that went down over the weekend to unranked (LOUSY) opponents. Welcome to the grind of conference play in
College Hoops.
But when you have 1st
half trouble with arguably you’re two best big men (Teske – Brazdeikis) and Mattheews
can’t hit a shot to save their life, well…bad things are going to happen. I can’t remember the last time Michigan was
held to 54 points in a Hoops game.
It’s an anomaly. A complete Anomaly…
A fluke that happens on occasion
in every season if you watch enough basketball.
How did a 5-12 Illini team hang 95 points on Minnesota?
There’s going to be off nights…and
off mornings.
The Wiscy game started at
11:00 AM Local time.
And I really think Michigan
is more of a late afternoon or night team. I like to think of this loss as the “much
needed” loss that will wake Michigan up to the fact that they are not in-vulnerable
and they need to focus on every game.
But it’s not a reason to panic!!! However, some of you did.
From SuperFan:
I’M FURIOS AND DEPRESSED!
I
remain so and I will explain.
We
WILL lose a game because two or more guys on the opposing team have career
nights, where they make one ridiculous shot after another.
We
WILL lose a game when our well chosen, high quality shots just won't fall.
WE
DID NOT NEED TO LOSE THIS GAME, as neither of those things happened. For
the first time this season we played STUPID; and I mean from the coaches down
to the players. We passed up MANY open 3s early in the clock while
attempting many reluctant and challenged ones. We gave up MANY open 3
looks (many which were missed, but not enough) due the compulsion to double
team, and committed several stupid fouls, 2 feet from the basket.
Simpson
just went into super-stupid mode at the end of the game, getting fed the ball
by wisky when he had Poole ALL ALONE for a 3 when we really needed a 3.
ALSO,
is Matthews really traveling, or is he just so fast they think he is? If
he really is traveling, can't we get that fixed!!! If not, he needs more
bench time. He is not having a great year thus far, and he seems to be
getting worse as the season goes on.
AND
WHAT IS WITH EVERYBODY, and I mean everybody, missing
short......consistently. Nearly every bad miss is short, almost never
long. When everybody is missing short over many games this must be some
sort of coaching problem??? Free throws too
Again,
Michigan
still has 17 wins on the season and will win again.
Tap
the brakes…Tap the Brakes…
The PREDICTIVE STATS!
And every time I get a bright
idea it seems to work out that it was a bad idea. Anyway, I’ll keep this going until I think it’s
somehow screwing things up…

The GOAT – UNF^&*CKING BELIEVABLE
BRO!!!
You know what? When you’re going to your record 9th
Superbowl, I’ll forgive you for dropping an F-bomb on National TV after completing three 3rd and 10 passes and winning in OT. Everyone that’s losing their minds over that
F-Bomb Drop – Get over yourselves.
I’ve written about Touchdown
Tommy’s accomplishments on many occasions and I’m tired of arguing with anyone
who claims he’s not the “Greatest”. And I’m not even talking NFL. I’m talking all professional sports
combined. Better than Tiger, James, Jordan
or whatever other name you want to throw out there.
There’s just NO ONE that’s
done it with as much success or as long at TB12 has done it.
To put this in
perspective: Do you know how
many people are still around from TB12’s his first Superbowl (36) 18 years ago
against the Rams? Meaning, how many
people have been there for the entire time at either organization?
Three.
Brady and Belichick, of
course. And The Football Research
Director for the Pats: Ernie Adams.
That’s it.
In fact, Brady and Belichick
have been to twice as many Superbowls than any other QB/Coach combination. TWICE AS MANY. The Rams don’t have ANYONE in their
organization that was there for SB 36.
In fact, the Rams have been through a 20 Head Coaches and QB’s combined.
If you’re a New
England hater, or worse, a TB12 hater (And I know you’re out there), you’re
really missing out on one of the most fun times in the history of the NFL. I really don’t think there will be anyone
else ever in any sport that will accomplish what Belechick and Brady have
managed to do.
Even baseball players don’t go 18
years anymore. Basketball is too hard on
the knees. Tennis and Golf may
see a legend in the future, but for now, it’s Brady.
Hands Down. Some Numbers:
9 Superbowls
5 Superbowl Championships
9 AFC Championships
14 Pro Bowls
70,000 passing yards
97.6% QB Rating – lifetime (98%
Superbowl QB Rating)
THE GREATEST EVER COMEBACK IN
SUPER BOWL HISTORY!!!
(sorry Atlanta fans)
I could go on but I think you
get it…
Nope, I won’t be listening if
you want to have the debate. In fact, I’ll
knock you down several rungs in the intelligence department if you even want to
begin the debate.
TB12 is the GOAT.
That is all…
And I really hope New England
wins so Brady can start with rings on the other hand!
