Alabama Champs
A long drought, but I promised to keep this going, so here it is:
Congrats Alabama, you are now officially* the 2009-2010 National Champions
Michigan 2009 Schedule Wallpaper
A bit late, but here is the (suprisingly) much anticipated 2009 Schedule Wallpaper. Hope it doesn’t dissapoint.
You’ll note that there are two versions, one with a few extra curriculars, the other totally clean.
**BONUS GAME FUN** Find and name all of the easter eggs and overused memes. Woo?
With Extras:

Even cooler than Wallpapers
This was taken at the DC Alumni Event and is (supposedly) the first time that all three coaches have been at the same event outside of Michigan.
It was a fantastic night, and all 3 coaches were very open to pictures, autographs and the occasional question about the state of the program.
I will add pictures and more video clips as I process them.

Legends Series - “Bo”
I’m working on a new series. It is super creatively titled Legends Series.
I thought it’s only appropriate that the first installment be the best one.
(I’m using a new download manager. Let me know if it works or is cumbersome.)
“45th Parallel”
National Champions - Florida
I thought I’d start a series that gave annual tribute to the national championship winner*. It’s (obviously) not going to be Michigan every year, or maybe not even soon, so I have to do something to fill the football gap.
Anyway, here’s this year’s tribute:
Congratulations Florida Gators. You are probably, almost certainly, the National Champs for 2008 - 2009.
*Ohio State and Michigan State fans should not hold their collective breath
RESOLUTION: 1680×1050 // 1280×800
Michigan Basketball, “Back”
I had a bunch of ideas for new pieces prior to the Penn State game. Then I got depressed and lost motivation, and put all that on the backburner. I thought I’d probably get to them during the off season, including some individual player pieces for those that have asked.
Now, all that will be delayed even longer.
I was an Undergrad during both Fab Five runs, and I payed my dues on South U. during the celebrations and the riots. I think we’ve all waited long enough….
“Still The Team”
This sentiment is brought to you for the Penn State game, but it also applies for the rest of this season. We are still Michigan. It’s still about The Team.
And if you expect to lose, you don’t need to be playing for this team.
“Believe in Blue” 2008
I received this email and it got me particularly motivated:
I was thinking that a “Believe” wallpaper would be awesome, especially because of the number of unknown variables we have going into the season. Everyone is predicting we will struggle, and while that may end up not be far from the truth, it is important that the fans BELIEVE in the team. If we are to win any games this year, as with any other year, it is imperative that the fans support the team, win or lose, and continue to believe in the tradition (historically and in the present) that is Michigan football.
Keep doing what you’re doing, and GO BLUE!

So I came up with this “Believe in Blue” wallpaper that hopefully will spread good mojo for the season. If you like it, pass it on and lets see what happens.
Michigan 2008 Schedule
There have been some requests for a schedule wallpaper so I thought I’d try something a little different for the start of the season. This wallpaper will be updated throughout the season to reflect the results of the games.
RESOLUTIONS: 1680×1050 // 1280×800
(UPDATE) Explanations for some of the “features” that have a few people puzzled:
Joe Tiller’s cat is a stretch from here to here
Joe Paterno munches on brains
Orson couldn’t find the original post, but this should help explain [NAME REDACTED]
(UPDATE) Um yeah. Pretty much never gonna update this wallpaper…
I need 1024×786 ones these r to big :*(
