You mean this

Like I don't give a [img_assist|nid=253482|title=|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=100|height=64] about OSU. Or I don't give a [img_assist|nid=253482|title=|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=100|height=64] about the Big Ten. Seriously, though one of my best friends is a Buckeye fanatic - to the point where he cries when they lose - this is a grown man with children. So, I love giving Buckeye fans the world over a hard time - it does my soul good.

Profile

The reference didn't mention sports, it just said that you had lived in Columbus or had some connection to OSU or something like that. You're right, sports affiliations can be very controversial (even moreso than politics)... just look at how riled up Whatup has gotten.

I don't think I've ever had

I don't think I've ever had that in my profile. I try to avoid such controversial material like sports affiliations. It makes people not like you very much. Who is Publius? Join Xomba and get PAID to write - CLICK HERE!

Rat's patootie

Ah, you're an SEC fan... that explains why you posted an anatomically correct medical illustration of a Rattus rattus cornhole on one of my Ohio State posts. (Of course, you didn't explain why you had posted that... I thought maybe you just admired the rectal anatomy of of small rodents.)

Ohio State

"You're an Ohio State fan? I did not know that. I am too. I was born and raised in Ohio and have family ties to THE university." I seem to remember there used to be something about Columbus or OSU in your profile in the past. Yeah, I'm a lifelong Buckeye fan... was born in Columbus and lived there until I was 12. My uncle taught at OSU his entire career and lived in Columbus until just recently. USC looks good every season until that one game, like you said, when they lose to a team they should have run off the field.

Oh, god help me... Well, at

Oh, god help me... Well, at least it's not the PAC-10 - or the ACC...or the "Big" East. Who is Publius? Join Xomba and get PAID to write - CLICK HERE!

Blasphemer!

How dare you speak against the SEC. I banish you to a year of MAC football!

You're an Ohio State fan? I

You're an Ohio State fan? I did not know that. I am too. I was born and raised in Ohio and have family ties to THE university. It saddens me that they had decided to keep that horrendous defensive coordinator around after their three major embarrassments over the last two years - Florida, LSU, and USC. It's kind of hard to stop an offense when your linebackers are five to seven yards off the line of scrimmage and almost never blitz. They don't play like that against everyone else, but when they really need to stop the run and put pressure on the quarterback, they refuse. It's not like they don't have the players for it. Then we have to hear about how great the SEC is and that USC is in a league of their own. The USC part is true...they are in "A League of Their Own" - the PAC-10 plays like a bunch of girls. But still, USC finds a way to lose to one of them almost every year. And how 'bout them Bulldogs, and them LSU Tigers, and Tennessee, and Auburn...yeah, they sure are impressive. It's also good to know that Florida can still beat the Citadel and LSU can beat Troy...barely. Quite frankly, the SEC is the Big 12 is the Big Ten...there's no major difference between them, except one is largely overrated every year. Who is Publius?

Big Ten title

Right. I thought I'd heard during the broadcast that Penn St. had won the title outright because they won the head-t0-head, but it seems they did indeed share the conference title. I'll correct it. As a Buckeyes fan, I'm happy to see them beat Michigan... again. Though I was hoping Penn St. would lose so OSU would win the title and go to the Rose Bowl. Yeah, BCS makes no sense. It certainly hasn't solved the controversy it was created to eliminate.

Minor correction.

Penn State did not win the Big Ten title outright...they split with Ohio State. They simply get the Rose Bowl bid because of their head-to-head victory over the Buckeyes. In related news...the BCS is one of the biggest FRAUDS I have ever witnessed. Obama's advocacy of an eight-game playoff may be the only thing on which we are in agreement. Who is Publius?
