Ready for the show now...

 

In Nebraska... we go to your house, in front of all of your fans, and run the ball down your mouths and win the football game. Oh, my goodness, it is great to be a Michigan Wolverine...fan. As I am watching, Michigan looked like a completely different team than they were against Oklahoma a couple weeks ago. Against Oklahoma they could not stop the run, they couldn't make the big play when needed, and they couldn't use the QB when they needed the first down, against Nebraska, they answered all of the questions. 

When Nebraska is driving down the field with ease, I say to myself, "This is going to be another one of those games where Michigan gets destroyed on the line of scrimmage and cannot make a stop when they need to." That is exactly when they started off with the big time stop on 4th and 2 to get the ball back in our own goal line. That is when Michigan's team started growing up a bit and able to play the big games when needed. 

After Michigan lost the game against Oklahoma, I kept saying to myself, "Yes, I understand Michigan is not driving the ball on them well, but what are these play calls? Are we going to have the calls like this the whole season?" And that is when the offensive coordinator, Chip Lindsey, shut me up and showed all of Michigan football. They had the screen passes that were working on the side, the running game was working the whole game with multiple running backs, and then the biggest part, they used Bryce Underwood and let him throw and run the ball when it was much needed. They even had a perfectly timed trick play that would have been massive if the ball was thrown anywhere near the receiver. Hayes having 149 yards with a touchdown, Marshall having 80 yards and a touchdown, and Underwood having 61 yards and a touchdown, all I will say is, get used to having to stop the 3 headed dragon when the lineman are managing control of the line of scrimmage.

  We made it everyone! It is finally the best time of the year! The fall season! The crisp morning, the firepit evenings, the football season, the chili, ALL OF IT IS FINALLY HERE! I have been waiting for this since the "Holiday Season" ended and now all I can do is sit, smile, and enjoy the moments we have.  Here are the top 5 things about fall that everyone should be excited for... 5.) Weather The fall weather is better than anything else to experience. Crisp cool mornings and firepit evenings? What is better than that? Winter is always brutal with it being so cold shivering at any point when you are outside and summer do not even get me started... My AC is on full blast at home and in my car at all times, and when I go outside, it is like I am walking through lava. It is always a bad day to wear a t shirt with those sweat stains running down. But I do not have to worry about either those for the next couple of months. Hoodie in the morning on my walks, and hoodies as I sit...

Best Sequel Ideas for Disney Movies

Image
  Adults will be running to the living room couch to be eating Dunkaroos and a Lunchable waiting for the new movie to come up. This cast is incredible to see and will get people of all ages to watch. Kind of curious if they will have EVERYONE from the previous ones to come, but either way, it's the nostalgia that the older people will need to see, and the younger kids can start from the first Camp Rock and watch them all the way to the newest one coming up. This is a win/win scenario for viewers, and I cannot wait to see how it goes. Now if they are doing this... will they be doing this for new movies? Here are a top 5 Disney movies that I would absolutely love for them to make a reboot to be put on in the future.                                                                    ...

Detroit Lions - Believe or Dont!

Image
This is my first blog about the Detroit Lions for the year. It stung very hard with the Detroit Lions losing to the Washington Commanders home in the first round of the playoffs. To be a Lions fan, I have never been more confident in a football team. We kept winning primetime games and coming back when we were losing later in the game... the Detroit Lions never get to do that. So right when the confidence was at the highest it possibly could, it went crumbling down and the Lions fell off the playoffs early that year. But you know what... this is a knew year, and after week 1, I heard many people saying they do not believe in them this year, and with that I say... Stay on the ship or do not think about coming back.  The season was amazing last year, I agree, they did everything besides win the Superbowl. New year, same energy... so we thought. Week 1 in Green Bay is a scary one to start. Especially when they have just received Micah Parsons as a pass rushing threat to add on for the...
