Sporting News: At Ohio State, it's perfection or bust

At Ohio State, it's perfection or bust

May 31, 2008

Spencer Hall

Only an idiot earns the Heisman on his wedding night, takes out the trash without asking and shaves every day. You might call this person "a fine husbanding all-star." I call him a moron who fails to understand the curse of high expectations and its crushing long-term implications.

Enter college football's most uxorious husband, Ohio State's Jim Tressel. Maybe, just maybe, one or two other coaches have gone so far as Tressel to please their fan base -- USC's Pete Carroll comes to mind -- in their quest to put food on the table, take out the trash, mow the yard and bring home the bacon.

If any of our folks are going to be attending any of these signings and wouldn't mind getting a copy signed for this poor schmuck stuck over here in the desert, I'll gladly pay for any expense when I get back in September.
:oh:

I'll get right on that, just as soon as I find that photo of Martin Luther that I have lying around somewhere.
