As some of you may know my Dad, brother Brett and I went to the Michigan-Penn St. game in Happy Valley this weekend. It did not end well for the Wolverines. However, we had a very good time. State College is a very cool town and Beaver stadium and the fans are unbelievable. As for the game itself, I have figured out a way we might have enjoyed it even more.
We Coulda...
left at halftime. Michigan was leading 17-14.
We Shoulda...
ignored any and all sports media for the next 24-48 hrs.
And then...
We Woulda...
enjoyed a much more pleasant outcome for Big Blue.
That is not how it played out. We witnessed the dismantling of Michigan at the hands of Penn St. We made our way out early in the 4th quarter with Michigan down 29-17. Before we had made it out of the stadium it was 36-17 and on the way to the 46-17 blow out that everyone anticipated.
Perhaps the Purdue game will yield a better result.
Cheers

You are showing rare writing abilities. You and Robin could form a team, a la Marcia Muller and Bill Pronzini. I especially liked your title. Sorry about the team loss, but at least it's just a game. The game on November 4 is going to be much more telling! MIL
