Michigan Madness

Today was a wickedly long day...so much! Not onyl did we ahve practice but we had to get ready for Michigan Madness. It went pretty well. Besides the organization aspect wich could have been better, it went well. Gates opened at 8 and tehy were entertained by different htings. Then the actaul show started, and wow was it a show! The palyers came down one at a time paired with a women player from the stands. They were going with music and had spot lights and everything and it was super dramitized it was hilarious. Then the coaches came out...dancing. It was SO MUCH FUNNY HAHAHA. Coach Dunn was classic and Coach Beilein could ahve put a little bit more effort on them moves but it was still a riot.

THen we had the tests the fun part. We had a skills contest, with stuff on the floor that the palyers ahd to go threw, kinda like the NBA skills contest in All Star weekend. That went allright, even tho our Walk On, Corey Person started making excuses about why his team did so bad. I still dont know how he was Valicvictorian at his high school.








THen we had a three point contest. That was fun. Stu was on fire...of course. But then Manny beat out the competition in his chill and ice-vein fashion, hitting them at the end were it counted to win the contest.



And then tehre was the dunk contest...oh that dunk contest. I had to man the first two, making sure my managers were gettgin everything done at the skills contest and the three point had to use some serious managerial doeses to get it done right. But then the slam dunk...yea, since I just opted out of the dunk contest I could just watch, and was it a sight to behold. (on the vids I am standing on the half court line by the ball rack, just incase you were looking for me) First off, I have no idea how EVERYONE made their first dunk (expect for peedi´s first, but that was probobly because he blinked before he jumped or somthin). Darious had to have the most creative. He hit his first one off the shot clock for the dunk and the second one he went up like he was about to dunk the ball, then tossed the ball off to the side only to grab another one from mid air that came out of no where and dunked that one instead! It was rediculosu! Where did that ball come from!...and then we see freshman MatT Volchrich who looks like a 16 year old giggling in the stands like a 13yr old girl who knows a secret cause he made a perfect toss from 10 rows up in the stands. Hahaha. And the poeple loved it! They were going nuts, and rightly so! And so with all the momentum against him, the cold-blooded and stone-hearted Zach Novak stepped up the thre three point line on the corner, simply toss teh ball up and then jumped with his awesome white man hopes and willed, willed the ball threw his legs and into the basket...and the rest was history. THE rest was history. Beautiful. And with that I leave you with this footage. Beautiful. Tore the house down. Down. By a white guy. Unbeleivable. Video of the month bar none.
