So, it’s Michigan-Michigan State day. Michigan has lost 4 in
a row. Michigan State has a new QB and receivers that can’t catch. You know
this. You can read that anywhere. I’m here to make your game day experience
more enjoyable. Or, depending on the outcome, make it so you don’t remember
what happened. You’re welcome.
So I decided to create my own little drinking game to follow
along with while you watch. The rules are simple. If you quit, you’re smarter
than the people that don’t. If you make it through to the end and are still
able to stand, I wish to erect a monument in your honor, and worship at it
twice a year. I just said erect, which happens more times than you would
imagine. Ok, so legalities out of the way, we’re off.
1.
1 drink every time the term “Little Brother” is
used. It was stupid when Mike Hart said it, and Michigan hasn’t won since.
2.
1 drink every time said 4-year winning streak is
mentioned. My liver already hurts.
3.
1 drink every time Denard Robinson’s penchant
for not tying his shoes is mentioned. We get it. He’s a senior now. Everyone
knows this.
4.
2 drinks every time a player is called by the
wrong name. There is no Virgil Smith on Michigan’s roster
.
5.
2 drinks every time an MSU receiver drops a
catchable pass. I’m looking at you, Bennie Fowler.
6.
2 drinks every time Denard Robinson turns the
ball over. Self explanatory.
7.
3 drinks every time one of those turnovers is an
interception without a Michigan WR within 8 yards.
8.
3 drinks every time an MSU defender does
something that would be considered assault if it occurred outside the confines
of the game.
9.
5 drinks if it is by a player other than William
Gholston.
10.
5 drinks every time Fitzgerald Toussaint is
tackled for a loss/no gain.
11.
5 drinks every time Mark Dantonio tries to
outwit himself. This includes fake punts/fake kicks/quadruple option
reverses/and goping for it on 4th and 12 at his own 17 yard line.
12.
6 drinks when Michigan uses its second timeout
with 8 minutes left in the first or third quarters.
13.
7 drinks if the camera catches Brady Hoke
running more than ten yards to get the referee’s attention to do so.
14.
7 drinks if Andrew Maxwell or Denard Robinson
complete 70% of their passes.
15.
10 drinks if Andrew Maxwell AND Denard Robinson
complete 70% of their passes.
16.
Finish your drink if we see Jack Kennedy throw a
pass. It’s either celebration time or incoherence time.
So there you have it. Have fun. Don’t drink and drive. Go
Blue. Beat State.
