My Pick Is Sharp

Posted by MRG On February - 4 - 2010

Drew Sharp is a reprehensible human being.  This cannot be sugarcoated.  He lives to write hit jobs on athletes based on his own preconceived prejudices and horribly cynical world view.  During the course of his radio show yesterday, Sharp compared a seventeen year old high school student that had committed no crime to OJ Simpson [...]

The WLA Michigan Stadium Music Solution: An Artistic Rendering

Posted by chitownblue On February - 3 - 2010

Comrades, if you recall, the WLA submitted our two cents into the “Piped-in Music” vs. “Band” debate. Those two cents were as follows:

Ypsilanti Illuminati

Posted by CPS On February - 3 - 2010

With National Signing Day beginning only hours away, it’s time to turn our attention to the seedy underbelly of college football recruiting. We’ve all heard the reports – the negative recruiting, the high school corches running interference for their alma-masters, the anti-Michigan propaganda, the anti-Rodriguez factions,… But they are nothing more than whispers [...]

The Kids Are Alright: On Demar Dorsey

Posted by admin On February - 7 - 20109 COMMENTS

The below post is submitted by a blog-friend with extensive real-life experience dealing with juvenile offenders.

Demar Dorsey has unfortunately been a rather major focal point in U of M sports lately. Speculation by columnists, coaches and sports fans has ranged from catastrophe to redemption. People have been racing to conclusions faster than Denard Robinson runs the 100. I was not going to weigh into this mess, but then thought perhaps I should if for no other reason than to introduce some semblence of truth into the story.

Buckeye Battle Cry is the worst blog in the college football blogosphere. It’s bad to the extent that I’m afraid to tell my wife that I blog for fear that she associate me with the munged detritus of the college blogosphere. It’s so bad that I can’t tell my friends I blog, lest they think that I would write mastubatory jokes accompanied by cheesecake photos of girls of undetermined age. It’s so incredibly fucking bad that I, a relatively rational football fan who truly does not “hate” Ohio State, but merely wants to win an annual football game against them, am actually questioning whether Ohio State fans actually ARE white trash, illiterate hicks. I mean, I know all of them aren’t, but things get sort of hazy when looking at that blog.

Every November, Michigan and Ohio State play a football game. It’s a pretty big deal. I mean, as far as football games go, it’s a pretty big deal. Most people do a pretty good job of keeping things in perspective. If you were to poll the contributors here at the WLA, we’d acknowledge that OSU is a pretty decent school, that Tressel is a good coach that runs a pretty clean program (at least, since his flirtation with Maurice Clarrett), and that Ohio is just another state with probably the same ratio of good people to insufferable knobs as any other place in the country. We’re willing to have OSU grads or fans as friends, roommates, spouses, family members, whatever. We’ll probably talk some shit to them around that aforementioned big game, but fuck, man, it’s just football and we got a life to live.

Drew Sharp is a reprehensible human being.  This cannot be sugarcoated.  He lives to write hit jobs on athletes based on his own preconceived prejudices and horribly cynical world view.  During the course of his radio show yesterday, Sharp compared a seventeen year old high school student that had committed no crime to OJ Simpson and bemoaned the fact that he was simply trying to tell the other side of the story.  We here at the WLA think it’s important to present some the other side of the story about Drew Sharp, following the same rigorous journalistic standards that he has utilized.  So let’s take a look at Sharp’s conviction free criminal record.

The Children of the Revolution

Here at the WLA, as the blog of the proletariat and the most popular communist themed college football blog on the internet, we believe in appreciating every recruit. Not just the ones with high star ratings and measurables like speed or athleticism. Here at the WLA, we measure the intangibles. Other organizations can’t measure the size of a man’s heart (well the NFL may start.) We already do. We weigh every grain of grit. We remember every blitz pick up by tiny (HT: Mark Dantonio) 3* Michael Jonathan “don’t call me Bike” Hart—who opened our eyes to what is possible with enough grit and determination (provided you aren’t interested in beating OSU or winning many bowl games.) We look past gaudy, capitalist stats like height, weight, and eye-hand coordination.

Rudy: the orginal Grit Monster.
