    Default Blue Is Back Baby!

    I knew Harbaugh was a good hire for the football team but not even in my wildest dreams did I think he'd do this well this quick. Michigan beat Northwestern 38-0 today, third straight shutout and they're on an 80-0 scoring run. All is now right with the world again.

    The Michigan Wolverines' ascent under head coach Jim Harbaugh continued in a huge way Saturday at the Big House in Ann Arbor, Michigan, as the No. 18 Wolverines handed the No. 13 Northwestern Wildcats their first loss of the season in a 38-0 blowout.

    The Wildcats entered the game with a 5-0 record and the best scoring defense in the nation among FBS teams, allowing seven points per contest, but Michigan's defense took center stage as it registered its third consecutive shutout, per Michigan Football on Twitter:

    I knew he was a good hire, too. Best coach in America now that now that Jimmy Johnson and Parcells are retired.

    49ers are stupid

    That soap opera stuff when the Niners let him go was strange. Some of the things the Niners front office was saying at that time made them look really unprofessional.

    I agree. But lots of coaches get let go by jackasses who don't have a clue.

    Tom Landry finding out from TV Jones had replaced him was the most classless act I think I know of. The Raiders getting rid of Stabler comes second just because Art Shell wanted a Daryl Lamonica. Great. Lamonica could throw the ball 100 yards but couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. And THAT is credit where it's due. I couldn't stand the Raiders in the 70s. Always screwing over the Steelers.

    They should have to have a brain test to go along with the money in the NFL. Art Modell, Art Shell and Jerry Jones are the worst things to happen to the NFL. Always posturing about money and not playing the game.

    Have the cowboys ever recovered from Jerry firing Jimmy Johnson?

    And him making himself the HMFIC over talent? That's a big niner-oscar.

    Look at it this way. It's like the Chicago Cubs curse. I can't blame Eddie Lebarron because he got stuck on an expansion team. But since the Cowboys started, they've 2 good QBs that could win the big game. Meredith got there and lost. Morton got there and lost. Dandy White probably STILL holds Cowboys passing records and couldn't get past the NFC Championship. Tony Homo is his doppelganger. Jones could have had Brees when he left San Diego but decided to go with Homo. That's worked out SO well.

    I'm like, at which point do you figure out you don't know what you're doing? Might as well sell the team to O-blah-blah. He's about as good at decision making.
