Dewey Defeats Truman

What a great hour that was. If waking up to this was like Christmas morning, then the rest of the day was having LSU burn down your tree and give you dysentery.

(Side note: Though they acknowledged it throughout the day, ESPN's frantic backpedaling was odd, as they didn't even change the URL when they turned it into the "Miles is Staying" story. We have always been at war with Eastasia.)

Super Heroism

So, to set this up, it's Homecoming spirit week at the high school where I work and Tuesday was "Super Hero Day" where you either took up the guise of a real super hero or made one up for yourself. So when one of my colleagues told me she was coming as the Spartan Avenger and wanted to know if I would partner up with her as a Michigan super hero, so I jumped at the chance. Here now, the profile of "Michigan Man" (note: Wolverine was already taken.) Michigan Man Alias: Victor Valiant Super Powers: Breaking tackles, leadership, a sense of history, conquering the West... Known Weaknesses: Spread offenses, mobile quarterbacks, Division I-AA Opponents...[ugh.....] Arch-Nemesis:The Sweatervest Other Known Enemies: Captain Comeback, The Genius of South Bend, The Humanitarian That's all I really had. Dumb, but I hope you chuckled.
