The jerk who shined a laser on Tom Brady in the AFC Championship game didn’t get away with it (LINK).
The Detroit News asked a bunch of in-state recruits why they did (or did not) pick Michigan and Michigan State (LINK).
Bruce Feldman, from The Athletic, revisits the main characters from his Meat Market book (LINK).
This truly was the best commercial of the whole Super Bowl. I loved seeing the “old-timey” football players.
The 2019 #AdMeter winner is … the NFL! Its commercial, “The 100-Year Game,” was a tackle-filled celebration of current and retired players. https://t.co/8WZpLUvuQ5 pic.twitter.com/wJ1oAyyW0K

Here’s a little bit of info about the Lombardi Trophy:
The Vince Lombardi Trophy is made from sterling silver trophy created by Tiffany & Co. It’s 20.75 inches tall, weighs 107.3 ounces, and is valued in excess of $25,000, per the NFL. #SuperBowl

Every dad needs to brag about his kids once in a while. I’m glad for you that you have such a strong love for your daughter.

Fry the guy with the laser.
The NFL commercial was great.
Defensive battles can be very stressful. I banish myself to the basement and I must have paced five miles before the game was over.

I agree that the photo with TB and his daughter is priceless! That right there is a much bigger memory than winning the Superbowl.
Wow, reading through the comments from the class of 2019 In State Recruits hurts a little bit. Hearing the repeated phrase about “real” relationships doesn’t sit well. Let’s hope that this article gets buried and that the changes in the staff help improve that image. I understand Michigan chooses who they want to take in a class and who they want to move away from. There are various reasons, but for several of those kids the opportunity to prove Michigan wrong seems like a strong motivating factor.

2-3 of those same kids would have been great to have, at positions of need

Michigan did not do a great job with in-state recruiting in the 2019 class. Part of that is the loss of Tyrone Wheatley, and part of it is Tim Drevno. It just wasn’t a great situation, whether it was people leaving or people just doing a crappy job. This comes back to my belief that you need at least one guy on your staff who has great ties within the state of Michigan. I think Fred Jackson was really valuable in that aspect.
