Michigan Names Whole Team as Starting QB, Bo Schembechler Spins in Grave

The last decade was very unkind to the University of Michigan’s football program, and this one doesn’t appear to be starting in any better of a position.

Coach Rich Rodriguez has listed three quarterbacks as the starters for this Saturday’s opener with UCONN at the Big House. Tate Forcier, Devin Gardner, and Denard Robinson are all competing for the starting job, and have all won somehow.

Great leadership Rich. Picking a QB is like picking your girlfriend, you have to choose just one and be faithful. Even if you find out she can’t cook or clean a few weeks into the relationship.

Then again, Rich has been known to go out and put younger talent on the roster in his personal life too. Allegedly.

Mayor Of Michigan Gives Tressel Key To the City

The Ohio State Buckeyes won their 6th straight against former  rival MichiGone.  Unfortunately for the Buckeyes the win means nothing in the national picture, because Rich Rodriguez has turned the Wolverines into a punching bag.

The Buckeyes can celebrate beating their hated rivals again, and potentially implanting Catoptrophobia (fear of mirrors) into QB Tate Forcia’s head.  That loser may never, and should never be able to look at himself again, after throwing 4 interceptions, and fumbling in the end-zone, in a game that means so much to the team.

*UPDATE* Ohio State Nike 1954 Throwback Jersey

Here is the official Ohio State 1954 throwback jersey offered on the Nike website commemorating the 54 championship team that the Buckeyes will wear this coming Saturday in Ann Arbor. It still looks nothing like the 54 jerseys, but it’s better than the previous photo we posted.

No matter what, the Buckeyes will stomp the Wolverines, and are headed to the Rose Bowl for the first time since 1997.

For The Record: The USC Trojans will most likely be playing in the Brut Sun Bowl. I have no idea where that is and that makes me giddy like a kid on Christmas morning.

Giants Players Claim Current Helmets Restrict Their Lifestyle Choices

Giants players, Steve Smith and Mario Manningham showed their frustration last Sunday, as they demonstrated how current NFL helmets and current NFL rules demanding that players keep their helmets on at all times when on the field of play, restrict them in their “lifestyle choice”

“I would think, in these times, the NFL would be more forward thinking, and allow players to celebrate by kissing each other on the mouth after TDs if that’s how they roll.” Says Mario Manningham, former player for the nation’s first completely openly gay college, the University of Michigan.

NFL officials refuse to comment on the issue going into week 6, where Steve Smith and the aforementioned NY Giants face off with the New Orleans Saints and Reggie Bush, who hasn’t faced Steve Smith since their nasty and very public breakup after dating at USC.

Terrell Owens still blames Jeff Garcia for all of this by the way.

Michigan Players Say They’re Practicing Too Much

The Detroit Free Press put aside murder articles and Unemployment sob story space this weekend to report that a few past and one current University of Michigan football players are claiming that they’re working out way more than NCAA regulations allow.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume the current player crying about workouts, is not a Freshman, because as the 2008 standings prove, no one at Michigan likes practicing last season either.

By the way, voluntary workouts = Bowl Games. The Ann Arbor Lloyd Carr Hayride is officially over. Stop embarrassing the Big Ten.

A number of sports figures made this video to comment on the situation here:

Michigone

In a news conference Sunday Michigan Coach Rich Rodriguez informed us that his opening day starter behind the helm will not necessarily hold the job the rest of the season.  In fact he may shuffle freshman Denard “Shoelace” Robinson and Tate Forcier, as well as junior Nick Sheridan, who has experience losing.

“By employing the talent of these three QB’s I hope to reach half the potential of Terrell Pryor.   Last years number one recruit that I was hired by Michigan to sign, but now must see on the last game of every season, against our biggest rival,” Rich explained.

We look forward to seeing all three in action, as the Wolverines work to further smudge the Big 10’s once illustrious reputation.
