(EXHIBITION) Michigan (MSG), Sat., Oct. 25, 7p, Big Ten+

The truth is, I was feeling smug because I can watch pretty much anything that's televised, not realizing that streamed does not mean televised. So my punishment is having to admit that I listened to the game because I couldn't watch it.
Humility is strength. Thanks.

I have heard (;)) that there's a pirate app called Streamfire that you can get a lot of NY sports channels and many other sporting events as well as other entertainment. Just go on You Tube. Apparently you need a Firestick. (😜)
 
And once again we drift into the past of what ifs instead of focusing on our current team. Waiting for Slyfox to say "what if Lew Alcindor came to SJ".......he would still be Lew Alcindor and hot suffer from Afib.....😋


Liked your post , except it’s Slyfoxx with 2 X’s
And , mentioning Lew and Afib is kind of tasteless , even in jest . It’s not something to joke about. It’s a serious ailment for anyone .
Current team , instead of Johnnie history ?
There’s a place for both . Perhaps in different posts , Old Friends .
And , I still say , Exhibition is a word . Applying it to a game where it was played in MSG, at regular prices , Vs a top 10 team , with real referees and a Scoreboard keeping score , is just a word ? . And. 13,000 plus fans rooting hard . As the game progressed , did those in attendance continually shout, “ It’s only a Exhibition game ?”



Yes, it doesn’t count in the Won/ Loss column but , it wasn’t like Pitino or May weren’t trying to win .
Was it a barometer of things to come for this team ? We don’t know .
It did give us a game that showed we are a potential top 10 team now. But , maybe not top 5 at this point .

Thank you Sly but I am not as tasteless here as I was in my prime. 😉
There are times I miss my personal warnings with our Mods.😇

You were the OG of tastiness in your prime. You definitely deserve credit for that 😀

I disagree . Your posts are never offensive . In my book ,at least
I was conflicted in my reply to you . I was composing it to be more for the entire site , rather than just you .
Tasteless was a poor choice of a word on my part , dealing with Afrib . I regret it in hindsight .
My bad . You didn’t deserve the criticism .

Obviously , I felt more strongly about the Exhibition game with Michigan than I do about the game tomorrow with Quinnipiac.
Quinnipiac should have been the Exhibition game and Michigan a legitimate game .
It told us more about the Team’s level right now , than tomorrow will .
Again ,
 
I was just gonna chime in and say I can’t believe this thread is still going. But the last bunch of pages has nothing to do with the Michigan game lol.
 
Re-watched the game on MSG.

This was still exciting even though we knew the outcome in advance.

The Michigan announcers are outstanding! I hate listening to homers and they were far from it.

To those who think Darling is too slow...his stud counterpart, Cadeau, didn't have his way with him. He was held to nine points. I know it's a team effort...but there's that. Darling needs to start.

Lefty was a man among Wolverine boys. I hope he gets plenty of minutes. Based on this game, the team is better with him on the floor.

Their 7'3 guy traveled a lot and got away with it. This was far from a ref job considering how many more times we got to the line than the other guys...but doesn't anyone in stripes look to see if anyone's taking steps? BTW, too many touch fouls called. Let them play.

My wife and I sat with Doc Butler and his wife. He's intense, for sure...but knowledgeable. A pleasure.

Doc Butler’s missed on this Board . He knows Basketball .
