Dueling columns: MSU/Michigan football reporters face-off

Wow… way to write an article with almost nothing to do with football, then get totally trashed by the opposing side’s article. Being the ‘little brother’ here, the other guy knew how to spell emulate before you knew how to read. Way to not even be bowl eligible this year too. Ouch, first time in what, like thirty-some years now? That hurts.

Dan F – “I got into Michigan and MSU and went to MSU because it is better?” and you’re calling that BS? Our supply chain, teaching, and packaging degrees (to name a few) are top in the nation.

and the “Big House” sucks. your stadium isn’t any bigger than ours, you just force your people to sit their butt cheeks at a 45 degree angle, therefore more people can fit.

Oh, the other thing I forgot to mention is that as an MSU alum, I am glad to not have Walmart fans with no affiliation wiht the univeristy talking smack on my behalf….U of M has these fans (who probably couldn’t get into a Applachian State or Toledo)…it sertainly is an interesting mixture of pompous trash!

I saw Dan Feldman on To Catch A Predator. I don’t like the way he says “little brother” all the time.

I already attacked this on the Michigan Daily site.

This is why I came to MSU instead of UM to pursue journalism!

If being the “big brother” means having to listen to childish stuff like this all the time, then I am proud to be the little brother. U of M has been crapping on MSU forever, even trying to keep them out of what is now the Big Ten conference for fear of a little in-state competition. That is where the lyrics to the fight song come from. You guys have always been jerks, and it appears will always be jerks.

Go Green!

U.S. News and World Report 2009 has MSU and Indiana ranked the same at 71st nationally

http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/college/national-search/c_final_tier+1/page+3

I guess “big sister” avoided talking about football altogether because there’s no football to speak of in Ann Arbor this year.

We may be little brother in football, but in basketball, regardless of how it is regarded nationally, you know you care man…and to us, you are little bitches

Mr. Feldman clearly learned his shit-talking skills in U of M’s “How to be Gay” class. (Not kidding, in the English department)

“Let me know when you get the 75,000 people who attend your football games to go to a basketball game…”

We did that like five years ago. And we’re doing it again this year.

It’s sad knowing that people at U of M still believe they are THAT much better than us. Looking down at a school that has quality people who go into jobs to HELP others vs. a school that just graduates to make a ton of money is all too ironic.

Here is my retaliation:

Mark Dantonio is a tough, program changing coach, and because he wouldn’t call your player anything “worse” than short is because he is classy.

I guess your current record is something all you whining babies would refer to as “a hoax.” Is that right…remember when you lost to a MAC team not too long ago; isn’t that something that the all mighty U of M is above? You’ve been outplayed and over rated…even the “Big Brother” falls down sometimes! Oh, and please stop using Braylon Edwards as one of your reasons to be better than Michigan State, he graduated…he no longer helps you, with your higher than average GPA’s I would have thought that’s something you would all be able to recognize.

Dan Feldman rhymes with douchebag…

I thought we emulated Michigan perfectly last Saturday, didn’t we? Am I mistaken? Doesn’t Michigan usually lose to Ohio St.?

You suck at writing because you fall back on a lazy repetitive shtick, “emulating” one of the greatest douche bags of all time, Mitch Albom.

Go suck a fat one. If I wanted to read your awful stories I’d go pick up the Daily.

When did the Daily start employing retarded donkeys for sports writers?

When the sororites started turning them away for upstaging the current members

Is this really what passes for journalism at UofM? That’s sad. Instead of trying to write an inciteful, well-thought out article, he just lists a string of insults, many of which have nothing to do with football. I understand that Dan, like most UofM students are terrified that they’re going to lose, as they should be, but trying to put up a tough front with all his trite little insults, well we all see right through it.

Phrases like:
“You’re the little brother because you’re too dumb to care.”
“You’re the little brother because you probably don’t know what emulate means.”
“You’re the little brother because your girls’ fake tans, sloppy blonde dye-jobs and low standards don’t mean they’re that hot.”
“and I know you have trouble reading”
only indicates you’re a lousy journalist and a pampas prick.

Has anybody looked at his picture? He might want to look in the mirror before he starts attacking our girls’ attractiveness.

Way to analyze the game or write something relevant you tool.

Ah. I see UM’s magnificent, un-accredited journalism program is still producing fine young eggs like Danny-boy.

Nice to see they’re finally teaching the kids in Ann Arbor that many sentences do, in fact, start with capitalized letters and end with periods.

Dan, if your curriculum even teaches it (which I doubt it does), take my advice and prepare yourself for question marks and exclamation points. Those things will probably make your funny-looking head spin!

i got into MSU and UM and chose MSU cuz UM has a shitty campus full of arrogant pricks such as yourself.

now rather than writng one of the most classless articles i’ve every read on a news site about THE most classless statement ever spoken by THE cockiest prick in the world. why don’t we actually discuss football. something like your pathetic run defense or your inability to play all four quarters yet this season. oh right, i forgot, you clearly don’t know anything about football and this is your pathetic attempt to get your trash talking in before we obliterate you on saturday.

I just wanted to point out to Mr.Feldman that “Big Brother” Mike Hart was punk’d by the Baltimore Ravens and is out for the season after 5 games. Finishing the season with a whole 9 yards on 2 attempts. Karma?

Remarkable that all you guys can talk about is Chad Henne and Micheal Hart.

Hopefully, the EL Police will not hand out charges to some of your football players for beating the shit out of your hockey team last sunday morning before tomorrow’s game. You’ll need every chance you can get.

Also, after your loss tomorrow, try not to burn couches out on Gunson Street or Cedar Village and act like a bunch of drunken bastards.

I know a lot of awesome people who go to Michigan; it’s a shame you have to tarnish your school’s reputation with your embarrassingly childish behavior.

Like I wrote above — and I know you have trouble reading — football, not basketball, is America’s favorite college sport. Let me know when you get the 75,000 people who attend your football games to go to a basketball game, let alone the 110,000 that pack the Big House.

I understand football is king.
But what about the 78,129 that went to Ford Field to support our basketball team?
So yes we have had more then 75,000 people to watch our basketball team.
And on December 3rd this year, we will have even more.

“You’re the little brother because your girls’ fake tans, sloppy blonde dye-jobs and low standards don’t mean they’re that hot.”

I don’t have a fake tan, a dye job, or low standards, but that’s a little irrelevant, isn’t it? It actually doesn’t have anything to do with tomorrow’s game. Neither does the fact that I chose MSU over U of M when I was accepted by both schools, and I’m glad I didn’t.

*I’m glad I didn’t choose U of M. Don’t get me wrong.

Who would want to go to UofM? All it is is a buncha kids who were the loosers of high school and now think they’re sweet cuz they can say they go to “UofM…!” OOOooooooooo! I got into the school… like it’s hard?? I just have standards and choose not to degrade myself in being identified as a wolverine… like I said the kids that you “made fun of” way back when!

“You’re the little brother because you don’t understand that jokes like “What does a Michigan State grad call a Michigan grad? Boss.” can’t be reversed, so you do it anyway”

I don’t get this at all. of course U of M has a great engineering program, I’ll give them that. BUT msu is FAR superior is so many importnat programs…. when it comes to packaging, supply chain management, accounting, teaching….these are all programs that MSU is ranked significantly higher in compared to U of M.

Weak tea, Danny boy. As my friend Karl BoLos says, the pipes, the pipes are calling… So why don’t you clean them?

After reading this article, I am absolutely 100% glad that I chose MSU over U of M. The Wolverines always claim that this in-state game is not important at all. Yet, every year you insult us over everything: academic, sports and people. Maybe it’s time you admit how important you view this game because you know why you have to insult us before we do. Stop living in your own world and starting surviving in reality, because that is what everyone else does.

Anyone else notice the trivia question on the Michigan scoreboard that asked “Who was the last Mid-American Conference team Michigan Lost to?” Of the four choices, one was “Toledo” and the other was “Michigan has never lost to an MAC school,” and the latter was given as the correct answer. Guess they forgot about the game two weeks ago eh?

HOW’S THAT CROW TASTING DAN??

Dantonio said it best – “Pride comes before the fall”

And, Dan,

Little man, You’re a loser.

are you allowed to make fun of peoples’ looks when you look like you have down syndrome? just curious
it’s not a MISCONCEPTION that people at MSU are better looking,that would be REALITY.i went to some UM parties this weekend and lets just say it wasnt PRETTY
it actually would’ve been nice to see some girls like the ones described in the article but i was not so fortunate

now about the article
-like mentioned by someone else already,breylon edwards does not like UMs football program anymore and DID wear PSU gear on TV
-we planted the flag at ND because they were arrogant like well…UofM and didnt bother bringing the megaphone trophy to the game cuz they were so confident they were gonna win
-everyone knows that football is MORE popular but basketball is very popular too but thats why UofM people try to downplay its importance cuz they dont belong in division 1 basketball.
