I'm a Spartan, so it pains me to say something nice about Bo Schembechler, but this endorsement could help particulary in the Ann Arbor, Detroit area, and Livingston County where those M stickers are everywhere. Coach Schembechler is THE icon at U-M.

we need to turn the "M" stickers upside down "W" in Michigan.

It will be very interesting to see the polling from Michigan in about three days. Bo is huge in Michigan. If Bo told folks to sacrifice their first born, a whole lot of Michiganders would grab some kindling and a knife, call the kid and start trudging up the hill...

Oh, damn. I'm a Buckeye, and it pains me to say......Go Bo! (Whew. Now I gotta go lie down for awile. That took just about everything I had)

I'm a die hard Notre Dame fan, but I'll take it. Thanks, Bo.

One poll has Bush up. Another has a tie. The more realistic ones have a Kerry 2-7 point lead.

Yes, but he would lay down in the big game which helped you.

As a former Wolverine, this does me proud. It's been a long time since I've seen anything come out of Ann Arbor that I can agree with. This is good news. Bo knows leadership.

Yo! JimRob!

How is it that the web address of the Detroit Free Press is www.FREEP.com? Can't you sue them for copyright infringement of something?

Here's another reason why Bo likes Bush:

Bo's words might very well carry a lot of weight with some Ann Arbor residents and UofM fans. I have a liberal aunt and uncle who live in Ann Arbor, buy season tickets and even travel to Wolverine games. They weren't too happy with John Kerry's "go buckeyes" comment. My uncle said it showed that John Kerry was lying about things he doesn't know anything about. I think my aunt and uncle were planning to hold their noses and vote for Kerry but I'm not so sure thats true now.

My uncle in Kalamazoo has allready decided that he's voting for Nader.

The Free Press has been known as the freep as long as I remember.

Yeah, Go Michigan! One of the best uniforms in college football, even if they did completely choke at Notre Dame:
