Tough Times

Very tough times right now for Detroit fans unless your a Sparty fan.

UM is still going through the growing pains of a new coaching regime. They are still pulling in great recruits who are getting offers from major programs. I just really hope they can stop putting the ball on the ground as the year goes.

The Wings lost last night while raising the banner. They looked a little sloppy out there but I think it has to do with many of the players not getting time with each other on the ice in preseason due to injuries. They will be fine and everyone knows there is two seasons in hockey and by the time the playoffs come the team should be looking pretty good.

Then you have the Lions. I hope to see Stanton this weekend but because he has missed so much time with his broken hand/finger I don't think he needs to just get thrown out there. They really have a good shot at going 0-16 this year. I just really hope they get a new GM within the next few months and start to blow up the team. I also hope they don't spend their first round pick on a QB, RB, or WR next year. I really hope Lions fans understand that to build a team it starts with the trenches. I'm sure I will still see the stupid post everywhere of how they should take Tebow or Daniels with their pick. It never fails to amaze me how stupid some Lions fans are when it comes to building a team and what it takes.

Should be a great game for MSU this weekend to prove to everyone that Coach D is tunring the corner with them If they take out Northwestern it will really show everyone they are not the Sparties of old. Also I predict Ringer to have 220 yards and 3 TDs.

Make sure to watch some of the baseball playoffs as well. There are very good teams out there and it is always fun to cheer on Manny because people hate him so much. I would really like to see him face off against the Red Sox and beat them, but it seems the Phillies and Pat Burrell are going to make that very tough.

Have a good weekend and good luck to your fantasy team unless your playing me.

Fitzgerald Toussaint is another great RB coming to Michigan next year. I actually think he will be better than Shaw or McGuffie, yes I said it.




(Language NSF) These guys talk smack and fight a little then at the end the guy keeps talking and gets blown out! Make sure you watch until the end, that’s when the guy brings the pain big time (Just click on the video and it will play, it was the only way I could put it up)

Just because you walked away from the first fight doesn't mean you should run your mouth. Look at his face now!

Nothing like the spirit of Lions fans, it’s just sad that the team isn’t as passionate.



Couldn't of said it better myself



Great try...

Just in case you didn’t get to see some of the highlights of Shavodrick Beaver, 4-star QB commit to Michigan, here is some footage. (It is right after the beavers in the water so give it a second)

So Long Newsome......

The big news of day is that Kevin Newsome will not be coming to Michigan after all. Rumors have been floating around for months that he was not sold on UM and he finally revealed that he will open his recruiting again. This makes way for another QB, Tate Forcier. Many consider him a lock to come to Michigan. His brother went to UM and then onto Stanford with no hard feelings.

Forcier is a dual quarterback rated high by all recruiting sites. You can also checkout his site at qbforce.com. It has all of his times and what schools are interested in obtaining his services.

It is a tough loss for the Wolverines. I was really looking forward to having him and Beaver compete for the starting spot. In the end Michigan will be able to recruit another highly touted QB within the next few years. There are many options out there and will always be a few who fall in love with the maize and blue. Hopefully it is Forcier who does commit after visiting the campus for the Utah game

Yeah the election is coming. It is pretty bad when your own supporters don’t even know why the hell their voting for you.



One of the better t.v. ads from last year



Now that 4-star recruit Kevin Newsome has backed off of his commit to UM, comes Tate Forcier who everyone thinks will replace him. He is a top ranked dual threat QB just like Newsome.



Go out and get Tiger Woods 2009, you can walk on water or something

Heads or Tails? Call it in the air

Football is getting closer and closer so things are going well for everyone out there. The Lions already look to be sucking me in, again, this year. Calvin Johnson could be the best WR this year if he can stay healthy. With the weak schedule the first few weeks as well the Lions will be in full talk show mode with a few wins and many fans still bashing the wins.

The Tigers are done as I have already posted. I’m to ready for the football season so I won’t be talking baseball until the playoffs are close.

Michigan is keeping the hype machine going with the super freshmen tag team of McGuffie and Shaw, should be a great first game of the season. It has been a long time since I’ve anticipated the start of the season this much.

My fantasy football teams are also looking to win championships in both leagues. It’s funny that at the start of every football season everyone you talk to about ff says the same thing as well, huh.

Anthony Fera – 2009 commit for the Wolverines. Guess he can kick them from 58 yards out.



Here is a guy who decided to go wind surfing, in a hurricane. This just happened down in Florida and I guess the guy is in pretty bad condition at the hospital. Hopefully he recovers well and tells others not do the same, despite being common knowledge.



And a few more for everyone to keep Calvin Johnson in your thoughts for the rest of the day

Eat Em Up Tigers, Eat Em Up, Eat Em Up

Lookout for the Tigers! Glad to see them come out and get some runs after a blowout the other night. I really believe that Cabrera is going to really get it going for the second half of the season. The biggest key for the Tigers, as with any MLB team, is for their starting pitching to step up and keep the runs low. Minor, Robertson, and Rodgers will be the main reason the Tigers do or don’t make a push towards the division lead.

Still hearing rumors that the Pistons are interested in both Josh Smith (sign & trade) and Ron Artest. Don’t really know how strong of interest the Pistons have in either one but both have the Pistons trading away Prince to acquire either player.

Here is a link to some news on 5 Star recruit Darius Wintson. He had named Michigan as his new leader awhile back but since has decided to slow the recruiting process down a little.

Also former Michigan QB, Clayton Richard, will be making his first start today for the White Sox. I don’t remember this guy at all. I hope he does well, but also hope they lose for the Tigers sake.

Who would of thought you could hurt yourself on a 6 inch ramp?

Yes, Dunk Fail indeed!

Damn Tigers!!

The Tigers let everyone down this week in which they could’ve gained a ton of ground on both the division leader White Sox and second place Twins. The Twins have owned the Tigers this season and they came to Comerica and kept the Tigers their whipping boy by taking 3 out of 4. I won’t go out and say there is no chance of the Tigers making a run at the Sox and Twins but if Mags comes back and we don’t come out of the All-Star break on a tear, we will be looking forward to next year very early.

Sick of Brett Favre and how much ESPN is talking about him…….

I can’t believe how close training camp is and all the FF football talk that is starting to creep up. It is the best time of year for most sports fans by far. I can only hope to be watching the RED ZONE channel at one of my friends house come this fall.

Also the last bit of news for the day is that the Lions are interested in QB Chris Simms from the Bucs. I really don’t understand why considering we just drafted Stanton last year with a 2nd round pick. It never fails that the Lions will continue to defy all logic.


Thought you could only do this kind of bad assery in a video game.

Still tracking different Michigan recruits. Here is Darius Winston a 5-Star CB who put Michigan at the top of his list for the 2009 class after he dropped off from Arkansas.

What A Week!

Twice in one week? That is just too much. Fans of Detroit should take a moment and remember one of the greatest weeks in recent Detroit sports history. Both the Tigers, Pistons, and Wings managed to complete the winning tri-fecta twice in one week!! Can't wait for the next round of playoffs to start so they can do it again.

I'm glad we won't have to wait long for the next playoff game with the Pistons taking on the Magic tomorrow. It is also great to see the Tigers just one win away from the .500 mark. I know many of us were worried about the bad start, but it looks like the team we all thought we had has finally arrived and this will be a great year for Tigers baseball

On a side note, the Michigan Wolverines continue to keep getting great recruits with RR at the helm. Most of these guys are very fast as well. This may be a hard year to weather for us UM fans, but RR isn't going to make us wait that long to see what an SEC team would look like in the big ten. Keep getting the recruits RR!!!


Another great commit to add to next years great Michigan recruiting class - Bryce McNeal WR. You can check his myspcae page out here.

Michigan Commitments

Hope everyone has had a great weekend watching the NFL playoffs and the Pistons winning. The Red Wings let us down last night, but they were playing the second best team in hockey and they didn’t look like themselves. Everyone has a bad game here and there and we all know that the Wings will be in the playoffs and that’s when it will matter, so don’t get down on them. The Pistons play tonight against the Knicks, so you can add another W to their record.

For this post I decided to put up the commitments from all the top rated players that should (never know these days) end up in Ann Arbor this year. Everyone knows about Sam McGuffie and I figured that we should get a little insight on the other guys who will be wearing the block M. I have also included a link to each player with a video or other information if I wasn’t able to get the video. Hopefully these guys can do what the last class wasn’t able to and bring down OSU this year.

Sam McGuffie – We all know who he is and here is a mix of some of his great runs he has had. Click Here

Darryl Stonum - He is a WR out of Texas who has a 4.4 40, he is also rated 43 on rivals.com. Couldn't get a video, let me know in the comments if you can find one, thanks.

Boubacar Cissoko - We all will have to learn how to say this guys name because he is going to be a stud. At the All-Army game he impressed a lot of coaches and should get sometime as a freshmen. Click Here

Dann O'Neil - You say your worried that Jake Long is gone? Well don't. Standing at 6'8 and weighing 291 I think he will do just fine. Click here to see this beast in acition

Brandon Smith - This guy also had a great showing at the All-Army game. He is a pure athelete and if Pryor doens't end up coming this guy could get a look. Click here for video. They talk about him at about 1:35 into it.

For those of you who want to see more videos click here and go to takkle.com. It is better for getting videos rather than paying at rivals.com. Just type in the player you want to see and you should get some results use the list (link provided below) at rivals to get the players you want to see, just a little tip.

These are just a few of the recruits that I think could make a big impact at Michigan. For a complete list you can click here. It will take you to rivals.com but they don't give you to much and want you pay for everything.

Oh your an MSU fan? Click here and scroll to Michian State in the commitment list box, sorry it wouldn't copy right sparty. There it will give you a list of their recruiting class.
