Strings are off, I love my 12 string but changing strings is not my favorite things. I haven't gone anywhere, I will remain here. Please understand if it takes me a few extra minutes to reply. Go Big Red

Okay, this will be a dumb question, or rather a dumb person asking a question, but what kind of strings are they? I take it you are rock and roll so steel? Or Nylon? Sheez, I haven't played guitar since the late seventies early eighties.

Lol, my parents thought the accordion was more suited for me. My sister got the guitar lessons.....and the brains.......and the looks......

Greetings B1G fans!  A quick shout out as I leave the office for the day, finally!  Friday is here and it's time to drink, shoot (not in that order), play some cards, and just relax like the good lord intended.  I've gotta hit the gym on the way home I'll catch you all in a little bit, rock on wmich.

Not a dumb question at all loose. The strings are coated bronze string ranging from 0.99 inches to 0.009 inches. The guitar is a Martin accostic/electric 12 string.

Yes, loose, I'm worried about the "brutal" schedule ahead.  But, I take solace in the fact that this team has shown that it's tough (almost beating Duke in the beginning of the season and then beating MSU the other night).  The team could easily have given up when State fought back and surged ahead on Tuesday, but they hung tough instead and pulled out the win.  Exciting stuff! However, they have looked lackluster here and there.  I think that, except maybe for Ohio State, we don't know which teams are going to bring their "A" games every night (Illinois?  Purdue?  Nebraska?).  That thought keeps my hopes alive for Michigan.  Nevertheless, your analysis makes sense if it just wasn't for the tugs on a fan's heartstrings.

Just waiting for Sunday really, I need my fix. I say Giants vs. Ravens. both road teams pull it off. Eli gets his second ring, and taunts Peyton with it.

I like the 49ers and Ravens, but expect both games to be close and go either way

I know and I hear ya Umgrad.

The downside is the schedule, however, the upside is they have played together for over half a season and they are clicking at the right time as well as coming into their own and playing as a team. Instead of waiting until next year for this to happen, they have started early so with all that said, you never know.


Besides I'm always wrong anyway, so UM will probably win the conference with Illinois coming in second.
Oops, did I just jinx you guys???Wink

Anyone lurking, some good NFL this weekend, recruiting winding down in CFB, the B1G BB this weekend, NHL, upcoming MLB, no more Tebow talk for at least 6 months, NBA and the upcoming draft come to mind Sealed

Hey Wmich, just got started tonight.

I'm concerned about the back to back SU road games tomorrow and Monday. I have to think they can handle the Irish, it is Cincy on Monday that the streak will really be on the line.

Yes I am, Budweiser in had, dinner on the stove.
If I have a favorite B1G team  it would be the Michigan Wolverines, in football anyway. They were on TV a to when I was a kid and I liked Anthony Carter. I dig the Cuse because I live in Western NY and they are the best/closest School around. Plus going to the Dome kicks arse.
