Karma had a good thing going. It was proving that:
1) Amy Winehouse got rich after singing a song about Rehab
2) For years, Ed McMahon gave away free money to strangers, now is in massive debt
3) The government passes a controversial bill to save the economy, the next day all economies of the world fall
4) OJ Simpson gets cleared of murder charges, but found guilty of robbery charges years after
Karma got cocky, then karma got "My Name Is Earl". Karma had to do something fast or it would be lost among bad primetime television. Enter Michigan football 2008.
Karma Instance #1: Fumbles
For the past 4 seasons, Michigan enjoyed an running back that carried the ball with an iron fist. Literally nothing (Capital One Bowl what?) could strip the ball from his powerful grip. It was a luxury that was taken for granted. The successors have been getting negativity this season. While there has been a number of fumbles this year, such hostility towards our fellow Comrades will be punished severely. The fumbles this year are merely universe correcting itself. Is it not better to learn correct ball control and security while in the trenches? When future battles arise, our soldiers will be primed for victory.
Karma Instance #2: QB Inaccuracies
Robot Henne controlled Michigan for 4 years. While full of mistakes, Henne was reliable. John Navarre before that was wildly inconsistant, but relatively reliable. The universe therefore crapped out a piece of a QB (named Threet) and chose him to lead the Wolverines. 7 years of reliable QB play, 1 year of torture. This is deserved.
Karma Instance #3: Notre Dame
The universe balanced last year's Yakety Sax by throwing Hurricane Katrina at the Wolverines. However, the universe struck back at Charlie's knee. Something had to warn Charlie. There's only room enough for 1 universe.
Karma Instance #4: Wisconsin
This year's Wisconsin's team resembles the Wolverines last year. Wisconsin was sitting its star atheletes in preparation for some other fight. Sitting on your butt will cause you to lose, and so did the Badgers this year.
Karma Instance #5: Illinois
Once again, karma was the main factor in last weekend's loss. Last year, Michigan went into Champaign and beat the Illini in a close battle. Michigan was supposed to feel the wrath of Juice and succumb to another spread happy team. Neigh was the case. Had Illinois beaten Michigan, they may have made the National Championship game. They were thoroughly embarrassed. This year, the Illini came into Ann Arbor fresh off a battle with Penn State. The public had over-zealously crowned Michigan the winner after its remarkable comeback on lameduck Wisconsin. The universe would once again balance itself. Michigan deserved to loss, Illinois became victorious.
Karma Instance #6: Carty
Carty is gone. Woooooo!
Future Ninja Karma #7: 2009-beyond
We are going to be a MACHINE.
