Ivan is clearly upping his dosage. Maybe he could contact Urban Meyer’s boys for some helpful hints.
At any rate, Ivan has this to say about the Notre Dame/Michigan Game less than a month after the event actually took place under his “biggest moments of the half-season” heading.
3. Michigan blows out Notre Dame in South Bend
It seems like a long time ago now, since the Wolverines are ranked fourth in the nation and are looking unstoppable. But don’t forget that they went into Notre Dame Stadium having lost three of four to the Irish. The natives, as well as everyone else, had begun to question coach Lloyd Carr.It didn’t take long to figure out this was not the same Meeshigan. Prescott Burgess stepped in front of Brady Quinn’s second pass, intercepted it and returned it 32 yards for a touchdown. Exit crowd noise, exit momentum, exit the Irish — and by the time Michigan led 34-14 at the half, exit the Carr doubters. Michigan cruised to a 47-21 victory, and everything is copacetic in the land of maize and blue.
Ok. Ivan,.. Ivan. Over here, Ivan. Ivan, take the pencil out of your ear. No, Ivan, that’s not a telephone. I… Ivan, Elvis has been dead a long time now. No. No, I don’t think the stars are really watching us. Ivan, put down the burrito for a second.
Ivan, do you remember writing this piece? Yeah? good. Ok, so do you know what’s wrong with it then? No? Well, Ivan, you made a teenie, weenie little misrepresentation here. Yeah. Yeah, that’s right. Misrepresentations ARE bad. That’s good Ivan.
See, Burgess didn’t really “step in front” of Brady Quinn’s second pass. No. See, he was actually beaten on the play. He just got lucky when John Carlson failed to make the catch and let the ball tip off his fingers. Yeah. It’s ok. No. Don’t cry, Ivan. It’s ok. You’re supposed to be here. Yeah. I know. I know.
And there’s another little part about the crowd noise exiting with the momentum for the Irish. It didn’t really happen that way, did it? No. Can you tell me how it really happened? That’s right. ND got momentum back almost immediately, but then couldn’t stop turning the ball over or stop Mario Manningham. Yeah. That’s good. See, Ivan, we’re just trying to point these things out so that you don’t mislead your readers. We don’t know why on earth you’d want to do that.

Yo Q, imitation is the greatest form of flattery. Pocket Hercules over on NDNation’s boards took your article, edited it a little, and then posted it. You must be good.
