Thanks for the kind words. I have been mostly lurking all along, but am often daunted by jumping into a thread that is frequently 7 pages and dozens of posts long. I don't have time to read them all, and am therefore uncomfortable in putting in my two cents worth ill-prepared. I understand the...

It is unfortunate that what I was characterizing as a "magical season" ended as it did. Those who suggest that a regular season undefeated and an outright B10 championship was and is special are absolutely correct. However, I think the embarrassment of the NC game casts something of a pall over...

Well, DirectTV is not an option where I live. Besides, interestingly, Cox Cable has added ESPNU since the Indiana debacle. So, who knows what it or any other carrier is going to incorporate in coming seasons? Generally, I don't give a hoot about the Big Ten Channel generally. I care about...

Being a big fan of Sharapova's, I was disappointed in her crushing loss tonight. Serena was in the zone to put it mildly, Maria was clearly not. Her more recently tough first service went walkabout, and Serena jumped all over the ones that did get in. Having said that, Maria at 19 and the #1...

I need to amend my earlier post slightly. The NFL Channel is one of the Sports Tier Digital channels I receive on Cox Cable, my provider in the Southwest. When I said I did not find it on the interactive guide, I meant on other than the NFL channel. I know some of the seasons pro games including...

I am pretty sure I saw an advertisement saying the game was only going to on NFL network. I don't see it on my interactive channel guide where I am. Go Bucks!

Hey, I've been given a hard time by experts...don't you try. :wink2: I get all these DB guys all mixed up...I'm an old guy...don't hurt me. Go Bucks!

I was able to watch all of the first half and some of the second (switching from OSU game at commercials and half.) I thought Downing did very well...I rarely if ever though he got beaten by his D adversary. Anderson Russell was visible, but I did not see him make any notable stops. I am...

I voted 11-2 also. I always go into a season with the belief that with its quality of players the Bucks should win them all. And, I will be in that frame of mind in August. However, early reality tells me that we lost a great amount of talent this year with the departure of not only seniors but...

I felt JT believed he had to change the dynamic. If I recall correctly, there was third down and only a yard or so to go, but that aborted. Shoot, if you are going to win an NC, you have to take chances when everything is going wrong. If you cannot get a yard with Beanie, it is going to be a...

Newark Advocate web site has some pictures from yesterday's joint celebration in Glendale. Looked like folks were in good spirits, bands and all, but hard to tell how many in attendance. Go Bucks!

Much as I respect Troy, I am not an autograph collector and, therefore, would not pay much of anything to own one. Having said that, one of the things I treasure most is an Ohio State Football Encyclopedia (Jack Park?) presented me a few years ago by my former Rotary Club which is autographed...

As fate would have it, since my thread-starting post here on Oct. 10, my cable carrier here in the Southwest, Cox Cable, has now added ESPNU to its Sports Tier digital channels. A little late for the Indiana game :wink2: but any new coverages of sports are welcome. We still don't have EspinPlus...

Report on Ozone that ESPN (A. Katz) reporting Horford cleared to play after all. Practiced Friday, went through shoot around OK this a.m. Go Bucks!

Shoot, I was so much the crushing champ, but so long ago, that I doubt I can remember how I did it. :biggrin2: Oh well, thanks anyway. Go Bucks.

:( How can someone come along and claim the best score championship when some great player has posted innumerable highest possible scores quite a bit previously? That wasn't the way it was on the old board, and given the fact that you have ported over the old scores to the new site, it...

Nice post. The GAME is special whether it is at Columbus or at Ann Arbor. But it does not justify transferring to Arizona for the second time in a year, with back to back meetings. And, I should point out, I posted exactly that on Buckeye websites prior to the game. The meaningfulness and great...

Personally, I cannot think of a worse philosophical disaster than a rematch with Michigan. I said the same thing before the game when it was conceivable tOSU would lose. Winner to NC, loser to Rose or wherever. First of all, a rematch would demean the 100 yr. plus tradition of the ANNUAL...

One can only hope the field condition is not a factor in the game. Unless, of course, it somehow favors the Bucks. :tongue2: It was scary but fun to watch the quagmire at the BGSU/Miami game this evening. Testimony to what hard rain can do to game outcomes, for sure. Go Bucks!

I also commend the decison to fix the problem in this two week hiatus. Not every program would spend the bucks twice within a month or so to fix an obvious problem of this type. I suspect some of the motivation is the dawning realization that the game on the 18th is emerging as the game of a...
