Nothing wrong with being 8-2 from the perspective of this disgusted Michigan alum.

I feel your pain...the Callahan years were not pretty. The Big Ten needs Michigan to make a strong comeback.

Getting back on topic, I thought it was interesting that Mastro and crew were helpful in "finding" Carter's cards, then sold them off in Mastro's auctions. I guess the theft was the thing that put poor Carter over the edge and into the security of Mastro's auctions. I don't think Carter lived a year after getting rid of the cards, not that mattered to Mastro.

Selling broke his heart.

Sorry Dan. I'm a Badger fan. I always used to like the Huskers but having Pelini around degrades a great program. I remember class acts on the sideline like Tom Osborne and Bob Devaney. It's a pity to have to see a clown like Pelini there.

Yeah, he definitely has anger issues....he's Bobby Knight without any trophies. Wouldn't mind seeing a new coach here, but it's hard to fire a coach who has never won less than 9 games in every season (7). I would think Badger fans would like to see him stick around.

So when Mastro told me they accidentally lost the EXMT Loudermilk card from the complete set of T207s (during the photo shoot of top cards in the set) I sent for consignment in the mid 2000's I should suspect that they maybe they were fibbing

Could be worse, they might have hired Bobby Petrino. We are still digging out from under that mess at Arkansas...

During periods of past history, Minnesota and Michigan State were national powerhouses. Ebbs and tides.

My dad said when was at Michigan he said they were marginal and he never went to a game. I went to the UW during the Pre-Alverez days, back when they would fight Northwestern for second to last place. The daughter of the former Badger coach Dave McClain was in my high school graduating class. He led the Badgers to a couple of Bowls, but died of a hear attack when his daughter was in h.s.

I have family members who went to Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota and Michigan State, and my parents met and were married in Ann Arbor, so I say we're a Big Ten family. I live on the West Coast but follow the Big 10/12 not the Pac 10/12. Just can't acclimate to a league with Arizona State, UCLA and USC. November college football games in 85 degrees seems so unnatural. Gotta have some frost on the ground.

I remember when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers would come to Green Bay in December and the Packers would always have the definite home field advantage. I remember Steve Young getting sacked and having a face mask full of snow.
