Again..........."This is the meltdown I am here for," tells me all I need to know about you. Any morsal of respect I had for you is out the door. I may have called FootballKing a couple of names, but I'd never wish anything but the best for his personal life in spite disagreeing about football............even yours for that matter. Same with Moore, I feel for whatever this man is going through and wish him only the best.  But you? You said it yourself. You're here for the meltdowns and controversies. 

What happened yesterday doesn't even compare to what happened on Sunday. My anger was shared with 8.21 million other Notre Dame fans. I can't imagine even ONE of the 6.26 million Michigan fans condoning Moore's actions and not being embarrassed about it..........not even you. Certainly doesn't qualify you as "level headed." 

 

 

1.  Couldn’t care less about your level of respect for me.  It’s a message board dude.  This is Mickey Mouse type stuff.

2.  I actually did the opposite of condoning Moore’s actions and openly stated my level of embarrassment.

Is reading really that hard for you?

You should be embarrassed and you don’t even realize it.

What Michigan fan in their right mind WOULDN'T be embarrassed. Let's not pretend that you sit on some sort of a pedestal. Lol, good grief.

Had Michigan beat Ohio State and made the playoff , this whole situation would of been swept under the table .

But did you notice I didn't resort to name calling and four letter words?

That's the difference between us.

I can openly admit that my favorite program has flaws and things to clean up...you deny them and double down.

WE ARE NOT THE SAME.

Unfortunately, I think I agree.

I was pissed and had the balls to express myself.

You reacted no different than the other six million plus Michigan fans. You're not going to win any awards. 

I stand by my reaction, the reaction of Marcus Freeman, and the reaction of the AD. Four days later I still think the way the committee handled things is a complete sham.

You're on a role. Maybe making plenty of new friends in the process. Good for you. 

I disagree. That Ohio State game had nothing to do with his firing. He actually did a pretty good job during his tenure as head coach. One of two things happened. 

1.  Someone wanted him gone. Now he's gone. Had nothing to do with the Buckeyes, he was 1-1 against them. 

2. Michigan's moral compass is so high, he would have been fired had his name been Meyer, Cignetti, or Saban. 

Either way, I don't care. I'm neither here nor there when it comes to the University of Michigan. I honestly don't think they knew of Harbaugh and Moore's character flaws when they hired them. Bad luck.

“Either way, I don’t care.”

After multiple posts and a paragraph within the same post, lol.

I can be embarrassed about the leadership at Michigan and still root for the student athletes, right?

The topic? Sure I care about the topic. What football fan wouldn't? I don't care what Michigan's reasons were for firing him. It's none of my business. 

Of course you can care about the student athletes. What's your point? . The only thing I know with certainty is that you care about and crave "meltdowns", you made that public. And you just got a massive one from your favorite team. Like I said, must be a good week for you. 

As for Moore? As Mitch Albom stated, I'll wait for the investigation to play out before throwing stones at the guy. All we know right now is that:

A: He has mental issues. I hope he rights that ship. Mental illness is a serious thing that no one should be burdened with.

B: There's someone else involved in that inappropriate relationship. Hopefully that person is okay.

The statement about craving "meltdowns" is all in how the individual reacts to the meltdown.

MICHIGAN FOOTBALL is having a meltdown, I am not.  

YOU had a meltdown because your favorite team missed the 12 team playoff.

Nowhere near the same.  One is meltdown worthy, the other isn't.

In the past , this type of setback could of taken Michigan years to recover from. But with the transfer portal now , a new coach could be in contention in a year or two .

A fine line between hiring a coach quickly to keep as much of the current roster in tact as possible and doing your due diligence for the long term health of the program.

Harbaugh left Michigan in a predicament based on when he left and Sherrone was adored by the players and was the most likely candidate to keep the roster in tact.

Hoping some of the position coaches that have created relationships with players stick around.  I think it’s a special group. 

Also, a hiring firm has been put in place…and the flight tracker rarely lies…

I think michigan should keep him

Hey Mr Obvious....because I share something on social media, doesn't mean I believe any of it as gospel.  What you somehow fail to grasp, is that my motivation for sharing this is to get your goat.  As usual, mission accomplished.

Its called having some fun on this forum....I understand which sources are more credible than others. Perhaps try and running with it instead of taking the posts literally.

Moore remains in custody...would assume he has the funds to post bail.  Guessing no one willing to help him out??  Does look like prosecutor still determining whether to file criminal charges.

BTW, I consider ESPN a pretty solid source Temp.
