Joe, I’m almost, but not quite, starting to actually feel sorry for them.

Someone sent this to me today…sing to the tune of the Bud Light Real Men of Genius tune from the commercials…

Bud Light Salutes You….Mr. Delusional Michigan Fan
(sing along: Reaaaaaal Men of Genius)…..”Today we salute you, Mr. Delusional Michigan Fan” (sing along: Mr. Delusional Michigan Faaaaaan!)

“Season after season, year after year, you try to justify your absurdly high preseason ranking” (sing along: clutching at straaaaaaws)

“Season after season, year after year, you scramble to make futile attempts at damage control when the Wolverines lose to a grossly inferior opponent” (sing along: how’d Appalachian State score Thirty Fouuuuur?)

“Inevitably, you’ll bring up the past, boast of National Championships won 40 years before you were even born” (those were the daaaaaays!)

“You will point out that you have more wins than any other program….as though that is relevant to the current season” (sing along: you’ve been playing football since the 1870- eeeeeees)

“Go on, ignore that loss to Ohio State in the regular season finale and continue to believe that you’ll defeat any bowl opponent with striking ease” (sing along: we’ll win by thirteeeeeey!)

“So crack open an ice cold Bud Light, oh Emperor of Excuses, and take comfort knowing that when you finish ranked number twenty-five, you’ll be back to number five when the preseason polls come out next year (sing along: Oh Mr. Delusional Michigan Faaaaaan!)

Jason,
That video was a classic, and the crying in the background was a nice symbolic touch because it perfectly captures the mentality of the average scUM fan.

Good catch Wil, the Dispatch credited USA Today for that information and they still got it wrong.

Slight correction, according to the USA Today he would still owe $500k if he leaves LSU for anywhere else.

This web page also has many other interesting perks/penalties of some of college football’s head coaching contracts. Our own James Tressel is even mentioned.

We own Les…let’s not forget the Alamo with Ginn at QB. :)

Les would owe $1.25 million to LSU, if he decides to bolt for Michigan. If he leaves for any other school, he owes them nothing. I am still not convinced he is a good coach and if LLLLLLoyd gets canned, Les is more, victories for OSU.
