WPCNR PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE DAY. By the WPCNR Roving Photographer. January 2, 2008: The Black Bear Saloon turned into The Big House on New Year's Day as the University of Michigan Alumni Association of Westchester, Rockland, Putnam and Dutchess Counties headquartered at the popular White Plains sports bar to view Coach Lloyd Carr's final game as coach of the beloved Wolverines.

They saw perhaps the best bowl game of them all  -- a game fraught with tension from opening kickoff to Chad Henne's final kneel-down to clinch the win. They saw memories for the ages -- Adrian Arrington's 9 catches and three incredible one-hand receptions and two TD's, Mario Manningham's reverse, and Mike Hart's inspiring runs -- the stopping of the unstoppable Tim Tebow -- costing Las Vegas a ton of cash by upsetting the Gators, 41-35, coming from behind as 10 point underwolves.

Alumni explosions of cheers, groans of incredulity and roaring shrieks of triumph resounded down Mamaroneck Avenue through most of the 3 hour and 45 minute contest, and at the end when Lloyd Carr was carried off the field on the shoulders of his team they raised their shot glasses on high and sang "Hail to the Victors!"
