Getting Up For The Game!

Doing a new exercise last Wednesday!

Last week, a man FLEW A JET PACK out of the stadium!

I think this game has been residing somewhere on my mind, since, well, probably since Roy Roundtree caught the winning touchdown in the last one. We took the lead for good in Under the Lights 1 with :02 on the gameclock, 12 midnight on the wristwatch and E on the internal gas tank. The back-and-forth, forth-and-back nature made that game an instant classic. We'll be fortunate if this entry in the history books of this rivalry (yes, Brian Kelly, you red-faced dunce, the two winningest programs in terms of wins and overall winning percentage in college football history most certainly have a rivalry, at least until next year...bawk, bawk) lives up to the down-to-the-wire excitement levels of the past few years. You know, maybe we could try winning in, say, comfortable fashion, by like 10 or 14 points. In a way that doesn't leave the fans winded, hoarse, and with serious body aches from all the jumping and gesticulating. 

Nah. However they want to win is okay by me.

This is a TED talk I recently watched and found inspiring. At its core, it's about upending the conventional wisdom (that you can't win football games with players who excel in the classroom as well as on the field) and redefining and raising your expectations, both of yourself and the people around you. You see Michigan doing more and more of this in the way they recruit football players, finding that elusive 5-star that matches his exploits on the field with his performance in the classroom and the community. It seems to be working and hopefully someday soon you'll see them not in the crime notes but at the top of the rankings.
