JimD 3,345 #251 Posted November 14, 2011 Four college alumni were climbing a mountain one day: an Ohio State grad, a Michigan grad, a Penn State grad, and a Notre Dame grad. Each proclaimed to be the most loyal of all fans at their alma mater. As they climbed higher, they argued as to which one of them was the most loyal of all. They continued to argue all the way up the mountain, and finally as they reached the top, the Notre Dame grad hurled himself off the mountain, shouting "This is for the Fighting Irish!" as he fell to his doom. Not wanting to be out done, the Penn State grad threw himself off the mountain proclaiming, "This is for the Nittany Lions!" Seeing this the OSU grad walked over and shouted "This is for the Buckeyes!" and pushed the Wolverine off the side of the mountain. :dunno: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HorseFixer 2,012 #255 Posted November 14, 2011 Jim, You have no need to even try to quote statistics to me about football. Ive watched more football in my life than you will ever dream of watching. I guarantee Ive spent more time in Ann Arbor than you have spent in Columbus. Have had dinner with past Michigan coaches players even had a player come to my house with an autographed Mich Helmet. Met Anthony Thomas the "A" Train before he ever played a down at Michigan. But that all means nothing. Anyone can win games when you "BUY PLAYERS" Tressel did the same gratuities stuff at Youngstown State, he is a crooked coach and disgraced himself and the University. I wouldn't brag him him up but there ya go Idealizing a SCUM BAG! Now lets get onto some real statistics that you have conveniently forgotten. The great thing about these statistics is you and I will never live long enough to see OSU pass Michigan in win loss records Ok Tressel beat michigan With Bought players in 2000 to 2010. Michigan Owned OSU in the 90's when cooper was coach. Bo beat woody more games. Its a new Ara OSU has a new Coach same as Michigan were starting Fresh. Let the games begin see you guys the 26th. Cheers ~Duke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers ~Duke Jim the waiting is nearly over!- History In 1914, Freud assimilated narcissism as a psychological term. The word narcissist comes from the Greek mythological story of Narcissus, whose punishment for breaking a nymph's heart was to fall in love with his own image. Features A person suffering from narcissistic personality disorder inflates his/her achievements, condescends, dominates conversations, sets unrealistic goals and believes that he/she is better than others Just ride the wave Jim-Thanks-Al Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JimD 3,345 #267 Posted November 20, 2011 Another 3 and 3 week and a miserable performance from the Buckeyes. This has been a tough year to deal with and another tough game coming up in Michigan. Penn State just plain outplayed the Bucks today. We were in the game till the end but mistakes killed us. They will have to play better than that next week to win.

Brrly1 1,146 #273 Posted November 24, 2011 Alrighty then, I am going to get my picks in. I do want to make sure that everyone knows there are games tomorrow. Here we go. Here's hoping everyone has a Wonderful and a Very Happy Thankgiving. Iowa @ Nebraska----------------Iowa Michigan State @ Northwestern--Northwestern Ohio State @ Michigan----------Ohio State Illinois @ Minnesota-------------Illinois Penn State @ Wisconsin--------Wisconsin Purdue @ Indiana---------------Purdue If it goes this way, I think it would end up with my Hawkeyes in the Championship game. I know it's wishful thinking on the Buckeyes game with Michigan knowing that Michigan is playing at home, also a lot better team. :wh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
