Ann Arbor is, was, and always will be a whore

I'm too tired to outline my great disappointment in Penn State's performance today, other than to say that Morelli really gave Michigan a gift at the start of the game by fumbling the ball and allowing the Wolverines to take it in for a touchdown—an inexcusable fumble that no quarterback should ever let slip, no matter what team he plays for.

As much as I hate to admit this, Michigan was the better team today. There's no getting around that, and it disappoints me because losing to Michigan is always hard to stomach. My deepest hope was that Penn State would be victorious, thereby avenging eight straight years of losing to the Wolverines—eight years of enduring their arrogance, their overinflated views of themselves as a college football team, not to mention that final second that Lloyd Carr extorted from the officials in the 2005 game. In other words, I was hoping that this was the year Michigan would be put in its place . . . and I wanted my Nittany Lions to be the ones to do it.

Oh, well. Maybe next year.

Maybe I can take some comfort in the fact that Lloyd Carr is still walking on eggshells for the Appalachian State game three weeks ago.
