A Live Diary during The Game between Michigan and Ohio State
Photo by Mike Mulholland/Getty ImagesI became a Michigan Wolverines fan on Nov. 22, 2003.
Born and raised in West Virginia, I sought to have my own thing outside of the local selections. WVU and Marshall are fine, but I craved a fiery fandom and those schools represented feeble flames in my eyes.
I did not grow up in a family of sports fans so I came very late to this world. But I’ll never forget sitting in front of my TV that evening, when a Chris Perry highlight teaser flashed on SportsCenter.
