No longer burdened with Jalopnik Editor-in-Chief duties, Ray Wert has found time to jazzercize.

They damn well better

6 out of 7 would make me REALLY HAPPY.

I hope they put 57 on them like we did to Indiana last week.

Ha, I told my buddy earlier today that I want to embarrass them MORE than we did Indiana last week. We better not let them score 17!

Haha.

Honestly though I would suspect a better match up than last year.

Our defense just isn't quite as TOUGH and ANGRY as it was last year.

I hope we beat them 300-0 I have no complaints about "running up the score" against Michigan.

Are you a Spartan as well?

Moved to DC in 2006 and to Chicago earlier this year. Nice being in Chicago because it is easy to get back for a weekend in MI.

Grew up in Grand Rapids, school in EL and then got out. My parents are still there so I go back for holidays and a handful of other times each year.

Gotcha.

I'm in Automotive Advertising so....this is where I need to be.

Chicago is awesome though, love it out there.

Yeah, so far so good except for the potholes eating up my low profile tires. I'm sure you have plenty of those in Detroit, though. You work at Ford? Really own a Montego?

If you ever make it out this way and want to talk cars with a fellow Spartan you can find me on twitter with the same handle. Just DM me.

Cool. I'm Sting562 on Twitter.

I do in fact really own a 1968 Mercury Montego MX (below). I've worked at Chevy's old ad agency, Ford/Lincoln's Main agency and now I'm at a different agency that handles Ford, Lincoln, Audi, and Subaru (yeah crazy mix).

and for your ears (the Flowmaster 44's start around 45 seconds):

Those pipes sound awesome. If I were you my neighbors would hate me when I woke them up Sunday AM's going out for a drive.

At my old house (just moved about a month or two ago) I loved that it pissed off my neighbors, now I feel a little bad because none of them have pissed me off yet lol.

But yeah it really woke it up.

I also swapped the 2 barrel carb for a 4 barrel holly and an edelbrock performer RPM intake.

man what an increase with 2 parts and an exhaust system...
