Michigan Football is Warcraft? (c) mvictors.com
Strength and Honour? Interesting slogan. It got me thinking about warcraft, because the goat people [Ed.: Tauren] in the game are always saying “strength and honor.” Michigan football, especially 2008, is a lot like Warcraft, in that:
- people living in Mom’s basement, with no other life are really into it.
- fans universally mocked by people with real lives (or successful teams), but don’t give a shit.
- guild (Big 10) was lame (2008)
- last season was definitely an Alliance kind of year, because we usually got stomped*, even by seemingly lesser level opponents. Sounds liek a typical day on the battleground
- Fucking n00bs. Rewatch the 2008 offense, and see if that doesn’t come to mind.
- Our epic warrior gear (unbreakable traditions, ginormous stadium, fancy hats, ghost of Bo) was of absolutely no use in weekly raids, especially against epic bosses (yes, I know we played sweatervest mccheaterpants the undead on the road. See also 2002-2007)
*what would you call losing to Toledo? In a non-off year, we should have beat them by 70, so losing by any margin must have been an epic asskicking
