My fellow Michigan fans baffle me sometimes

  • After beating a top 10 Minnesota team on the road and what do I hear from some Michigan hoop fans?

    Some are mad because of GR3 360 dunk. I wish people would understand we don't live in the 1950's anymore.

    Most likely, they are the same Douche Bag's that yell "down in front" at the Big House. lolrant

    I remember when at my first game at the Big House, I was yelled at by a bunch of old dudes to sit down after Denard had ripped a 40 yard run or something. And I was only 13, or something. Unbelievable. I don't understand how anyone can be upset after yesterday's game. We just beat a top 10 Big Ten team on the road. I haven't been this excited got Michigan basketball in my life.

  • I'm by no means old yet but I am getting up there and that 360 dunk got me all pumped up. I loved it.

    When GR3 threw down that 360 dunk and even Vitale went crazy I literally jumped out of my seat. I haven't reacted like that to a Michigan hoops game since the days of Chris Webber, Jalen Rose & Jimmy King.

    Those who are refrencing the "blue hairs" at the Big House. I agree 100% and that is what seperates the atmosphere at Michigan to Ohio State, Penn St and the schools down south.

    You go to a game at LSU or Florida and you get yelled at if you're not standing up.

    Exactly, it's shameful we have 114,000+ in that building and the silence can be deafening! Nothing angers me more!

  • lol, there are people mad about the GR360? What miserable, joyless lives those people must live, good God.

  • There have always been those 'country club' types. You can imagine the stuff I heard in 1991 when the Fab Five showed up, with their baggy shorts and stuff.

  • Who in the hell is mad about that dunk? The one thing I thought of instantaneously is that we don't play them again unless its in the tourney so who cares how they feel. Then I was like ok boys calm down because I'd hate to lose after Vitale called that the end of the game. Can't believe someone would be hating on that dunk. We need that swagger to this program.

    That person or group of people is in the minority. They are also naive, ignorant and worthless.

    Exactly. I haven't heard anyone, including my up-there-in-age relatives, say anything negative about the 360.

    I'll also say it's annoying to hear the people that yell "Down In Front", but it's also annoying to hear the people standing and swearing at the top of their lungs at opposing fans. So picking out one small group of people out of 100k you can always find something ignorant/dumb. When 90% of 114k people are enjoying themselves and being "good" fans, I'd say that's pretty good.

  • That dunk and the one by stauskus (because it had so much more authority than one's I've seen from him in the past) had me jumping up from the couch too.

  • I was kind of disappointed in the 360. It was awesome and all but with that hang time I was thinking he could of stretched it into at least a 540. Maybe throw a windmill in the next one too. lol

    Have you gone to a game lately? It's a lot better than it used to be, but of course there's still room for improvement.
