don't even know what to say beyond this being the worst offense in the country relative to its talent. if beck's still the offensive coordinator on monday then whittingham truly does not care.

say what you want about kyle whittingham (senile old man, stealing his paycheck, ruined bryce, etc.) but he has undoubtedly embraced the ethos of the erstwhile big ten west division

every other autumn, i get to deeply contemplate how money flows from super pacs, which spend billions in advertisements on tv networks, which spend billions in media rights deals for college football programs (which collectively spend hundreds of millions in coach buyouts)

i apologize to president biden for comparing him to this even more incompetent loser. you had a lot more going on upstairs, sir.

so excited to watch the big game today! i am referring to, of course, the double reverse revenge matchup between pat fitzgerald and aidan chiles in east lansing.

question for the audience: if you were ultra rich (let’s say $25M), what completely frivolous thing are you buying?

maybe we should have considered the possibility that utah's administration made the right move forcing this dude into retirement. should have gone fishing with the grandkids.

he's the joe milton of JT barretts

Michigan is gonna run Bryce Underwood 20+ times in every big game this year and they’re 100% correct to do so.

it's amazing how iowa is this exact same team every single year. outgained by over 200 yards but somehow hanging around. you gotta respect it.

in not-so-good news, our infant daughter has been crying a ton this week and might have a rash. bringing her in to see the doc tomorrow. any and all good vibes for my wife and I would be much appreciated.

all these Protect College Sports Act ads are so ridiculous like yeah dude for sure gonna happen when congress went home for the next two months

i don't gamble on sports for a lot of reasons but northwestern dragging neon deon and the buffs to the bottom of lake michigan was one of the more predictable outcomes this weekend

i had to leave college at 20 due to severe depression. never thought i'd be happy again i went back and graduated, eventually fell in love, got married, had a daughter, bought a house, have a good job, two dogs, lots of great relationships with friends and family 20 year old me wouldn't believe it

the fancy tennis lads are cooking up a hysterical 4-6, 6-2, 3-6 loss here

“Oregon’s defense won’t actually be good because it’s a luxury training academy and not a team” is a take I should have gotten on the record

i realize i never mentioned this on here, but my daughter was born a week and a half ago. she's doing well! i celebrated last night's win by finishing a dirty diaper change mere seconds after buchanan caught that ball.

special father's day for me as my wife and I prepare for our first to be born in a couple months

and Wolverine Bob decided that payback should be meted out to a MAC team that hadn't even been born when that happened

michigan fans will be like “i don’t know why everyone is so mad, this is exactly like that thing that happened a quarter of a century ago that i still remember because it made me so mad”

no need for michigan fans to rationalize this, it was an all-time screw job, and we'll spend the mext 11 (or heaven forbid 12) games paying for it.

everyone wants to talk about how we stole that game i just want to talk about how we played a defensive lineman at tight end the entire game

kyle's gonna be laughing on the phone with his buddy urb after this one

al@grandvillain.substack.com

i stand ready to accuse him of sabotaging the program on behalf of his buddy urban at a moment's notice

If you're gonna pull the second-worst loss in modern Michigan history you could at least spare me the part where you look like Joe Biden at the June 2024 debate every camera cutaway
