I wonder if those giant fans turned to roundball today with Michigan's football season over.

Because Michigan lost to NJIT ... that is the New Jersey Institute of Technology.

Speaking of irrelevant, I didn't even know they had a basketball team. Strike that, I didn't even know there WAS a New Jersey Institute of Technology. And I lived in New Jersey for three years.

Well they've made two bad coaching hires in a row. Getting rid of Brady Joke was (unfortunately from an OSU perspective) a step in the right direction. However, lotsa luck overtaking the Bucs as long as Meyer is coaching them.

2. Which opposing AFC QB would you least like to see the Browns face in a playoff game, should they get there? Manning

3. Assuming they can Brady Hoke, who do you think the next HC of Michigan should be? No clue whatsoever

4. The Christmas Tree (or Hannukah bush?) Real? or Artificial? And why? I love the real ones because of the smell, but the artificial one is easier for an old guy who should not be climbing ladders with a 10 ft ceiling to hang lights. At 67 I can still play racquetball every day, but I now stay away from high places just in case the bones are getting a little softer than in my 20's.

5. We are between Thanksgiving and Christmas....and for some thoughts may turn to: where can I go to get away from winter nastiness. What would be your preferred Getaway from Winter destination. I know a little place off the coast of Venezuela (Morocoy National Park), but you have to get there via Aruba to avoid anything to do with the extreme high crime anywhere near Caracas.

Take a gander at these pics from Morocoy (nothing is touched up and no crowds at all if you hire a boat with a good guide).

2. Worthlessberger

3. don't care, they're water-trash either way.

4. Fake trees are so much easier.

5. "getting away" is for pussies.

2. Roethlisberger, dudes a fucking beast and a winner and clutch and tough as hell and I'd hate to lose to Pitt in the playoffs

3. Luke fickel

4. Real cause umma real nigguh

5. Anywhere that isn't here. Millions if good options

Did you look at my options? I thought there was some out of the box/viable thinking there.

(also....why did you only answer one question....your life isn't that narrow, is it?)

Woodys life is as narrow as his asshole is wide.

You've got Ohio State.

Then you've got the Wisconsins, the MSUs, Iowa, Nebraska.

You've got the other decent teams like Minnesota, Nortwestern and Penn St. ... heck, even Maryland and Rutgers are going to bowl games

Then you ave the teams that don't matter .. Indiana, Purdue, Michigan, Illinois ... ...

It is that fourth tier that gives the Big Ten such a bad national reputation

Michigan, post-Appalachian St., is just another middling team

If you want to, listen to our interim ADs press conference from yesterday. It will give you an idea of what we're looking for.

After Harbaugh, Miles might be the #2, and general thought is he would come if offered. There are some issues behind the scenes though. And our AD wants a guy that "won't cut corners" and limits the "shenanigans". That's a shot at a lot of coaches. Ex, Miss Sts Mullen who just retracted the scholarship offer from a kid 16 days before graduation. That's not the type of coach I want, and apparently he doesn't either.

Also, we have no reason to be cheap about it. Outside of having a ton of revenue, I'm sure Stephen Ross wouldn't mind if some of his $500 million donation went to hiring a top coach.

Harbaugh is the clear #1 choice. I hope we get him. It could be a very quick turnaround after that.

@the-gipper said:

2. Manning then Brady (only cause we tend to do well against Brady).

3. I got big money on jim harbaugh, any takers?

4. Real, its fun to go get a real one, part of the tradition.

5. I'd probably take my talents to south beach for the winter.

I say we get Z and MarkO a one way ticket to International Falls right after the holidays. Right next to Frostbite Falls. At least they can have Rocky and Bullwinkle to keep them company. ........or, maybe, they ARE the real life version of Rocky and Bullwinkle.

Z is Bullwinkle, Mark is Rocky. No?

Sounds fucking cold so no thanks. But I'll take being Rocky to Zombo being Bullwinkle...We all know Rocky was the brains of that operation and he could fly. Bullwinkle was just a big oaf.

I'm having the worst weather day today in the past 8 months and its still 65 degrees and we've gotten maybe a 1/2" of rain, where would I rather be???

2. Which opposing AFC QB would you least like to see the Browns face in a playoff game, should they get there?

Hate to say it, but Big Ben......then Brady

3. Assuming they can Brady Hoke, who do you think the next HC of Michigan should be?

Harbaugh....just so we can stop hearing about where he's gonna go....

Edit: Brady Hoke just fired. No longer an assumption.

4. The Christmas Tree (or Hannukah bush?) Real? or Artificial? And why?

Was real for years.....now fake....so much easier

5. We are between Thanksgiving and Christmas....and for some thoughts may turn to: where can I go to get away from winter nastiness. What would be your preferred Getaway from Winter destination.

For me, its my cabin.....in the Ohio woods.....you can have your sandy beaches and palm trees....for me, there is nothing cozier than being in the cabin, with a fire raging, whilst the snow falls outside.....

Packers and Raiders

2. Which opposing AFC QB would you least like to see the Browns face in a playoff game, should they get there?

Ben Rottenburger, because that would mean they made the playoffs

Real. Because trees are real.

So I don't need a getaway.
