It’s Great To Be a Michigan Wolverine
Being an alumnus of the University of Michigan has its advantages, if you consider everyone telling you what a great school you went to and not being prepared for the real world advantages.
However, there is still the football. And every year that they don’t lose to a 1-AA team at home, you can smugly rub everyone elses noses in it.
This weekend was a stellar one for Michigan alumni in the NFL, and here is how they performed.
Tom Brady wasn’t his bad Tom Brady self on Sunday, but it was still enough to beat the Colts 24-20 in the most important football game ever played in recorded history. He went 21-32 for 3TD with 2 INT. His QB rating plummeted to an abysmal 95.2, falling below 1oo for the first time this season.
Rookie Linebacker David Harris filled more holes than Ron Jeremy on Sunday, recording an astounding 24 tackles in the Jets’ 23-20 loss.
Heisman Trophy winner Charles Woodson intercepted a pass and took it 46 yds to the house for Green Bay in their 33-22 win over Kansas City.
Todd Collins is still in the league, who knew?
“filled more holes than Ron Jeremy.” Honk! I’m waiting for AC Jimbo to take that quote and pass it off as his own at some point on the podcast.
Just what the world needs, more Tom Brady fellatio.
I nominate Steve Hutchinson as the standout Michigan performer this week. He helped spring Peterson for a record setting day.
Unfortunately, I don’t think the great man is an avid Odds and Sods reader.
What about Neon Leon? Hall had an interception in the Bengals’ loss to my team, the Buffalo Bills.
I’ve lost my faith in Leon after Braylon torched his ass.
Haha oh good point, but then again Braylon’s making pretty much every DB in the NFL look bad right now.
It’s pretty ironic that the states of Ohio and PA are the home to a lot of former Wolverines. Off the top of my head, Chris Perry, Hall, Edwards, LeSueur, Avant, Foote, Woodley, and Runyan all play for teams in those states and I’m sure there are some others I’m forgetting.
