yet more reasons why michigan football is the suck

[M Club]

the michigan ad claims to be waiting till after some middling bowl game to decide dickrod's fate. awesome considering we pulled the #1 rb recruit in the country, who had plans to enroll early. word now is that he's going to decommit and sign with bama instead. can't blame him considering he could have an entirely new coach but one week after getting to campus.

wonder if the time frame laid out by brandon (the ad) has anything to do with harbaugh. can't imagine there's anything dickrod can do between now and our shite bowl game that would alter his evaluation.

[Shoalzie]

I'm convinced that if RichRod still has his job after the bowl game, it means that Harbaugh isn't coming. He won't be fired unless another guy is in line to take over right away. I doubt we're going to see the same drama from three years ago when the coaching search took too long and it involved too many names. If Brandon's guy isn't available, we're stuck with RichRod for at least another year.

I loved that Josh Groban called out RRod

Only a major-league toolbox like Dick Rod would turn the annual football dinner into a campaign ad. He should really coach at ND. You know, with the whole covering up for rapists and those responsible for manslaughter angle.

I was kinda hoping this thread would have a pic of Mrs. Episode of Nip/Tuck RichRod. She's creepy in that leather-faced, catcher's mitt skin sort of way....with a wig.

[Screw_Michigan]

I intentionally didn't mention Dick Rod's catcher mitt wife for a reason. But since KC insisted:



I'd hit it.

Sin,

Killitard

who doesn't love a double-breasted pink trench coat thing with black buttons and epaulets?

and to go all yahtzee and shit, she's got a zebra striped blouse underneath. Hail to the Victors.

From the banquet:

Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez fought back tears, talking about the toll his job has taken on his family, and used passages from the Bible and a Josh Groban song during an emotional address that closed the team's banquet.

"I truly want to be a Michigan man," he said Thursday.

Did he clench one of Robinson's teddy bears when he delivered this heartfelt speech and started begging for his job at a football bust? Fucking god, man, have some dignity. Michigan Man, huh?

He cited Hebrews, talking about the faith he had in program's direction, and talked about how Groban's "You Raise Me Up," inspires him before having it played. Rodriguez, his wife, Rita, Brandon and players stood on risers with their hands held above their heads as the song blared in the ballroom.

Bwaahahahahaha. This blows away anything by John L Slappy. Holy freaking God, that is priceless. DickRod - the gift that keeps on giving.



Take a look at some of those faces. You could cut the awkward tension with a spork.

Hey Fredo, why were you posting so late on a Friday night? Things slow at the bath house? I have a 1 month old son. You? You're just pathetic. Can't address arguments, make up shit and drive by with 3rd grade smack.

Now, you'll either run like a pussy or come up with some lame way to tell me to off myself. Which one will it be?

RichRod has lost his mind...no other way to say it. It would be one thing if he kept his dignity and composure throughout this 2-5 finish to the season but the guy has shown some flashes of bizarre behavior and like Mgo has referenced...he's going John L. before our very eyes. He just wasn't cut out for this job.

[Mikey]

Things are looking worse and worse for Stanford.

Didn't I hear somewhere that John Gruden considers himself a "Michigan Man" in his heart of hearts?

We are the world. We are the chitlins.

maybe it's brilliant, dark satire.

edit: seriously, that's about the worst thing I've seen since Dan Hawkins took CU's team to a new-agey success-in-business and self-realization and motivational drum circle "seminar". There's a youtube of it but I can't remember how to search for it. horrible. you feel awful for everyone involved.

There's got to be video of this shit somewhere. Though with the photo + this you can still get the effect:



Powerful stuff.

Wow! That just makes you want to go out there and beat tOSU.....or transfer there.

[M Club]

er, the only thing i can say about all this is at least rita's perm has calmed down.

read somewhere that dickrod's gone loony trying to get fired before the end of the year so he can collect his entire buyout. guess it drops from $4 million to $2.5 after the new year.

RichRod is going Constanza...great!

So he's gonna raise himself up. Dust himself off. And throw himself right back down again. :)
