      Uh oh, surrounded by Bucknuts. My bro is just outside Dayton, he's not a fan of all of the fans of THE Ohio St. University.

        Even though I care a lot about my basketball opinions, they are like comparing a bicycle to a championship motorcycle who is our coach. . ZagsGoZags

          It's a brutal fan base. The worst part is they don't know how annoying they are. I was one, grew up in Columbus. Moved away for college and came back, to find myself no longer a big buckeye fan because of them. It is impossible to have a decent conversation about a college sport in this town, everyone has their scarlet and gray blinders on. Very glad I got out before I became one of them.

          Everyone is ready to fire Urban Meyer and disown Zeke Elliott this week.

                  That's a group that has metastasized. Plenty of them have migrated to North Texas.

                    I'd call you a "youthful 52."

                      Many many moons ago I was working at a software company in NYC... OSU was one of our customers. So I am on the phone with the General Counsel and some of his employees and I said "Ohio State University" at one point. He quite seriously interrupted immediately and said... "No. It is THE Ohio State University." I paused and then calmly said... "Did I mention that between my two parents there are 5 degrees, 2 of them PhDs, from Michigan State?" There were a couple groans heard on the other side of the phone... but I was smiling ear to ear.

                        I seldom have problems when dealing with the fine people from Just Another Ohio State University! I do sometimes have to ask them to show me where the 'The' is in the name, especially on their diploma.
                        Not even a smile? What's your problem!

                                Well...if you hadn’t promoted so many times, they might have let you ride out your last few years as the Professor of Military Science for the Bulldog Battalion...



                                Any chance that they’ll send you to Fort Lewis or Germany as your “retirement” assignment? Any desire to stick around long enough to wear a star or two on your shirt?
