Official Praise Thread

I'm posting now because, well, who knows how it will turn out. But I don't think I've felt so much anticipation for a game since NYCFC in Portland in December 2021.

The team with the most wins in CFB history against the one with the most modern championships. The most gorgeous possible setting in the oldest bowl game of them all. Two of the most iconic uniforms in American sports. I'm getting goosebumps. Go Blue.
 
Also, I wore the Magic Yellow Hoodie in the first half. Michigan dominated play but only led by three at halftime.
Forgive me but the flesh is weak and it was warm and I took the hoodie off. Michigan did not score the third quarter. In the 4th, Alabama was up 4 and driving with 6-7 minutes left and I put the hoodie back on. Michigan held Alabama to a FG, then scored a TD to tie, then held the Tide to force overtime (almost giving it away with a muffed punt first), then won by 7 in the first overtime sequence.
The Magic Hoodie is back, baby.

IMG_5967.jpegWasn’t exactly sure where to put this and didn’t want to clog any threads with it, but thought this would be something the forums would appreciate. Currently in Norway and took a snowmobiling tour that brought me to a frozen lake that connected the borders of Norway, Finland and Sweden (as you walk around that yellow buoy you enter each of those countries). Given our clubs connection to former/current players and coaches from those places I brought an NYCFC scarf to celebrate them! Shout out Scandinavia for producing such great footballers for our club!!

One of our cats moved on to a new place this morning, and I just found out about it not that long ago. I am not the biggest fan of cats, but I was quite moved. The happiness he brought to my family is immeasurable, and for that I am sad he is gone. Putting this in the praise thread to thank Muffin for being a great cat to my family - no, for being part of our family. :)
 
This made me look up how many home losses we have: 27. 2015 has >25% with 7. Then 2020 with 4, though 2 of those were in Orlando, and Home games only in name. 2016, 2021, 2022, and last year all had 3 home losses.
There's a reason for having STs. Of course, last year there were plenty of ties that felt like losses.

I woke to 41 new messages. I see they're in the dormant harassment thread and this. I thought, "it has to be 40 robot messages in harassment and 1 by Shwafta finding humor in it."
