   How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

   I think everyone can agree that news of Bo Schembechler's death
   today came as quite a shock the day before the big game. From a
   couple articles...

   "It's a flabbergasting, karmic coincidence -- the Hall of Fame
   coach dying the day before the biggest of all 103 games in a rivalry
   he helped enliven. Emotions will be in powerful conflict in Ohio
   Stadium on Saturday. The game will still be played at a passionate
   level that Bo would both demand and applaud, but there will be
   shadows across many hearts in two states." (espn.go.com)

   "But if anyone thinks that he wont be watching, cheering and
   shouting for Michigan tomorrow you have another thing coming.
   Everyone on the field and in the stands will feel the presents of
   Bo Shembechler. That is certain, and in a life full of uncertainties
   this is one we can all enjoy... even if only for one more precious
   afternoon." (www.paradisepost.com)

   RIP Bo, you will be missed.
