I Love My Alma Mater, an ongoing series:
Michigan football's offensive coordinator is named Al Borges. For us, this automatically sparks associations to Jorge Luis Borges. The first was a post on mgoblog that (correctly, and insightfully) used the subject matter of "Funes, the Memorious" as the basis for an in-depth look at offensive playcalling tendencies under Al Borges. The second is a full-blown parody on "The Aleph". As Brian says: "only Michigan blogs would turn Jorge Luis Al Borges into a running joke."
Well, maybe Chicago would, if they still had a football team. But that's pretty much it.
