J.J. McCarthy (once a tCun, always a tCun; Nine on the Pine)

Michigan man in my golf club in MSP was shocked that 9 failed with the Vikings.
Unfortunately they have rules against taking out a club and beating such a one to within an inch of his miserable, oxygen thieving life.

Should be no more than a 1 stroke penalty in my book but I don’t get to make the rules.

I would play a round with 13 clubs if I could beat the shit out of some dipshit. Probably the 6 iron. Hate that bitch. But I would turn it upside down so it looks like a 9. 8D

I CALL HIM NINE. J.J. McCarthy is a cornball. Excuse me, Nine is a cornball. Both McCarthy and his alter ego continue endearing themselves to Ohio State fans.

The former Michigan quarterback keeps winning over Ohio State fans even as a signal caller for the New York Giants. (To be clear, that's sarcasm.) McCarthy, who benefited tremendously from Connor Stalions' illegal sign-stealing scheme during his three seasons with the Wolverines, didn't wear his trademark eye black during the Giants' win over the Houston Texans. McCarthy said it was because he was facing former Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud.

“Yeah, it is a little corny,” McCarthy said Tuesday, per The Athletic's Charlotte Carroll. “Don’t get me wrong, but … you know, I guess I’m a corny guy. I took it personal in high school, growing up an Ohio State fan, like a diehard Ohio State fan. I had the comforter, had the Fatheads, everything. And (it was) just a little disappointing situation. (So) at the end of the day, that’s just something that I’ll continue against all Buckeyes.”

One, a diehard Ohio State fan would never attend Michigan. I'm sorry, but that's a fact. And two, he really is a cornball. He had a handful of great performances during his two-ish seasons with the Minnesota Vikings, but ultimately, he was mediocre in Minneapolis. It ended on an especially sad note: he couldn't even beat out Kyler Murray for QB1 — and Murray has been the definition of mid this season; Brian Flores' addiction to blitzing has helped the Vikings jump out to a 6-0 start in 2026.

I say that to make this point: I'm 100% confident Stroud (and several other Buckeyes) will have a more successful NFL career than Nine, and this eye-black gimmick will be one of many that define McCarthy's asterisk-filled college career and underwhelming NFL career.
