UM: Football

In advance of the Michigan-Ohio State game, Brian Cook of MGoBlog riffs on misplaced optimism, living in Ireland, the World Cup, and the pain of being a Michigan fan at this moment in time: “But what I said after the Notre Dame game still holds, even if it’s cast in a different light by the events that followed: this is Michigan now. Though they’re still plainly deficient, they’ll be there Saturday. I don’t know if things are going to be all right anymore. But I’ll be there, too, and God help anyone who talks about ‘heart’ within earshot. Saturday contains itself. For three hours, let hope bloom, and think about the consequences afterward.” [Source]
