Welcome To My Website!

This site, dedicated to the greatest institution in the world, is provided to my friends and family as a tool for
remembering past celebrations and communicating upcoming Maize 'n Blue events!!

          Coyote Ugly.... Yes, bad enough that I wanted to chew my arm off! We expected growing pains on the offense but this was disheartening. Nothing seemed to work in the first half and it was unbelievable that a QB change wasn't made at halftime. While we anticipated offensive struggles, the defense was no better in the first half. Receivers were left open and we got no pressure on the Utes' QB. Fortunately, the defense stepped it up in the second half giving us a slim chance of pulling out the ugly win. So, as the pundits repeatedly say, the greatest improvement in a football team is between the first and second games. Lets hope the entire team analyzes the game films to figure out what can be improved and then executes. It has to get better!

        It's Time.... Finally it is time to play ball. The last eight months have been about everything but football. Our Michigan Wolverines are knocking pads and figuring out who will be the leaders and best. I have no doubt our Wolverines will take their place at the top of the Big Ten and the November battle against Tuos (THE University of Ohio State to their recruits). The legal battles and the whiney offensive linemen are behind us. Time for the tailgates, time for the camaraderie, time for football. Bring it and bring it loud!!

        Après Tailgate.... The early season schedule is set and so we can make some plans. The opening game is a 3:30 kickoff so we'll have plenty of time to enjoy the August sunshine on the golf course. The second game against Miami of Ohio is set for Noon so that means Après Tailgate day!! Put it into your dayplanner now and get set for our annual bash at the Zarins' homestead. A special appearance by Paul Kowalkowski will highlight this years bash.

        Blast From The Past As We Contemplate The Future.... From humble beginnings our tailgating venture grew. That 'bun in the oven' is now a sophomore at the University of Michigan!!!  And little brother followed her path!!! Dad couldn't be prouder!!
