WORD-EATING FESTIVAL, chUMp-STYLE

Those darn chUMps...you try washing them out, scrubbing them out, flushing them away, even beating them on the field of play for seven out of the last eight years, and you just can't make 'em go away. "Be Gone, chUMps!" (See, that didn't work, either.)

As long as they're here, we may as well enjoy them. And the only way to do that is to laugh at them and their silly antics. The latest chapter in chUMp-mania came last week, during the buildup to the annual football game between Michigan State and Michigan. Or, as they liked to preview it, "The Beatdown at the Big House". They were so sure that "Sparty's little run is over" and so forth, that they just let it fly for everybody to see.

Now that they've been put back into their place, let's take a look back at what some of these nincompoops had to say about MSU before they settled back down on the last play of the game.

Hey Allen: Does 27-23 "ring a Bell"?

Sherri, Baby: Have you been dancing for the past week, darling?

Jim, the "OSU" game WAS "better" for UM.
(Oregon State University)

Was your day, by any chance, "miserable", Jim?

We enjoyed the view in the bleachers after the game, Mike!
How about you? Did you blow out your sister after the game?
