A BLAH BLAH BLAH V, MICHIGAN FOOTBALL EDITION:
I was asked by someone last week what it would take for me to give up my various sports fandoms (not actually--I was asked if I'd ever stop being a Yankees fan, which is certainly a legitimate question, coming to it, as I did, late in life). If Kirk Ferentz becomes Michigan's next football coach, that'd come pretty close to doing it. A certain amount of masochism is fine--loyalty to the guy who won a national championship is good, and, honestly, 8-4 would've been a dream scenario after week 2 (hello Ole Miss)--but this would just be stupefying on so many levels...
