BREAKING NEWS: It's happening RIGHT NOW

Falcon 20, round-tripping Willow Run to CID.

(Again, our undying yet bittersweet thanks to Bellanca for posting this. --OPS)

[UPDATE: Bellanca's calling BS on the explanation, but Ferentz was apparently not on board.]

Indeed it is.

Those internet pranksters are really pulling out all the stops now.

I mean, posts on anonymous message boards are one thing, but chartering dummy flights between Ypsilanti and Cedar Rapids? You guys are good!

I swear
whatever happens, reading the MGoBlog comments tracking this flight has been the most entertaining thing I've done in months.  
You can almost see the gnashing of teeth and rending of garments.

Yes

That comment thread is hilarious.

Am I wrong for dreading the next couple of days?  I'd rather have Chris Farley than Mark Farley.

I'm sure it's just a fancy auto part.

What, they fly imports out of Meeechigan?

You know what this is?

Miles disguised as Ferentz. And he would have gotten away with it if is wasn't for you meddling kids!

(I was waiting for you guys to link this)

Meg...

That is by far my favorite theory yet. Treachery and subterfuge in the River City! What evil lurks behind the headset? And if a coach isn't in charge of the offensive line... then what is???

by Oops Pow Surprise on Nov 26, 2007 9:19 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

Who is in charge of the o-line?

IT'S THE TERRORISTS.

They're trying to take away our freedom one set of neatly pressed Dockers at a time!!!

Did you see the commenter who suggested calling in a bomb threat?

Coincidence? I think not.

by dmbmeg on Nov 26, 2007 9:33 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

I'm confused

Why can't the difference in the trackers be the different legs of the flight?

Either way, watching every commenter freak out along with the fact people are going to the airport to check out the legitimacy of this claim makes this whole scene almost good as the OJ chase.

why am I the only one enjoying this?

Perhaps we should release a game called Where in the World Is Kirk Ferentz?

Is he at this very moment:
a) Attending a "team meeting"
b) Spelunking
c) In a high speed pursuit among the runways of Willow Run with readers of MGoBlog.
d) Ironing is Dockers in the privacy of his own home.
e) Getting a lap dance from Mary Sue Coleman.

Discuss.

According to one of the mgoblog psychos...

...the plane was picking up a crew that was over its allotted hours.

I don't believe it for a second.  Someone get Brian Kelly on the phone!

I'm actually enjoying this now...

I think...

we can turn up the crazy a little and show those Michigan bastards how us Hawkeyes roll!

Someone drive by the Ferentz home and see if the lights are on!

Go! Now!

by dmbmeg on Nov 26, 2007 10:13 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

I'll be there in an hour

Anyone know where he lives?

Ah, fuck it, I'll just drive by Alford's old house and see if he's home.

by Hawkeye State on Nov 26, 2007 10:16 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

I'm sure the lights are on

If James's curfew is anything like the football team's, he should have been under lock and key long before now. It is a Monday, after all. Can't take chances on a Monday.

come on people!

My friend suggested getting on Google Earth to track his ass.

I say, get a fucking ladder and see if anyone's in his bedroom! I would bet this is all some elaborate ruse so Les Miles can slip Mama Ferentz the hot beef injection.

When Ferentz returns "jobless", he will find his wife impregnated with a bastard LSU baby tiger (half man, half beast) and his son clutching an AK-47 in the fetal position mumbling semi-inaudibly, "Whoever gets the conch gets to speak."

Mangino

There's someone on the mGoBlog comments thread writing under the name Mark Mangino who is (1) obviously from the quad cities (holla!) and (2) completely fucking brilliant.

OMG!!!11

I just heard that Mark Farley's cab arrived in Iowa City like 8 minutes ago. He was wearing dockers, a black & gold hoodie, and a hat that said "there's a new sheriff in town!"

I'm so scared. Somebody hold me.

by jebushchrist on Nov 26, 2007 10:54 PM CST   0 recs

but was he chewing gum?

This is the collapse of civilization as we know it.

by dmbmeg on Nov 26, 2007 11:04 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

no

No gum, he was dropping Altoids like fucking chiclets though... I heard.

by jebushchrist on Nov 26, 2007 11:17 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

Well if he's not chewing gum

How can I possibly take him seriously as a coach?  I bet he can't even blow a bubble, what a loser.

by Adam on Nov 26, 2007 11:22 PM CST   0 recs

pfffffffft

He's all out of chewing gum.

by jebushchrist on Nov 26, 2007 11:30 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

OMG 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

I have it from sources that KF just chewed his first piece of gum for the day. I hear it's Wintergreen... which makes me question the source, since I know for a FACT that he likes Cool Ice. More later!

Also, Mark Farley just rolled over in his single bed at the Big Ten Inn and made a cooing sound.
