Game Thread THE GAME: Ohio State 42, Michigan 7 (Nov. 22)

Sorry so sappy...

One year ago today, we were flying back from Ethiopia with our newly adopted daughter. On the flight from LA to New York on the way over, I was blessed by watching Michigan collapse against Wisconsin, and then cursed to watch the Buckeyes do the same against the Fighting Zooks (and the refs).

Taking off from Addas Ababa late in the night, we knew that we wouldn't hear about The Game until it was over. The first thing I did after clearing customs was to find a paper and read excitedly about the 14-3 victory and Beanie's great day. It was great to share that with Mihret.

My dad had The Game on the DVR, and I thought that watching it while she slept on my chest was just about the greatest thing ever.​

Until today.​

Watching "running... tackle" (as she calls it) with my daughter, having her spell out O!H!I!O! after big plays, hearing her say "Beanie", and getting to jump up and down with her when the Bucks score... it doesn't get much better than that.​

So, thank you Seniors. Thank you Beanie. Thank you Buckeyes. Thank you Jim Tressel.​

You not only made this great morning possible for a dad stuck in California, you've made it so my daughter only knows a world where THE Ohio State University beats Michigan.​

:oh:

:io: Hope this is one of many "gold diaper" days for your daughter. :biggrin:

Were you able to watch the game?

Yes! It was carried by WPMY by ESPN through ABC! The $hitter of it was the guide on TV said George Lopez & American Beauty!
This ABC affiliate here in Pittsburgh WTAE has done this before on Ohio State games! They hate us!
I left them a NASTY MESSAGE! Oh,I did block my number when I called them!:biggrin:

[censored] m*ch*g*n and their asshole fans. They deserve every bit of this.

My seats are right next to the visiting fans section in Ohio Stadium; and I would like to mention (in all fairness) that this year year the Penn State fans were definitely much bigger assholes than the scUM fans. :biggrin:

Asked how the season would be remembered, Rodriguez said: ?Hopefully (we will) remember it as a blip on the screen, a one-time happening.?

---Hey nothing like belittling your seniors a little more by concluding their final season as a "blip on the screen".

?You can?t really blame Rich Rod because everybody on the team did not buy in like they?re supposed to. We have a couple of guys not going hard,? he said. ?We?ll correct that most definitely. That ain?t going to happen on my watch as a senior.?

---Let the finger pointing begin

Was anyone wanting to tell Bob Griese to [censored] the ^%$& up? He went on and on about the benching of Todd B.....

Thank God I am a Graduate fro THE Ohio State University! (1986)

:osu:
and bad mouthing Tressel for doing it . I'm surprised he didn't say anything about running up the score:biggrin:

The sound of that hitting was by far, the BEST from OSU in a long time.

I was not sure who was saying that of the two! Now I know his voice,he kept going on about he was not sure of Tressel's handling of that siyuation & putting in T.P.,the difference in the two Q.B.'s!
I was irritated by it myself!
They were trying to hope *ichigan could pull it out of their helpless a$$es the way they sounded!

Completely off-topic, but any truth to the rumors that McGuffie was crying on the Wolverine sideline after getting smacked on the kickoff (because my seats were on the other side)?

If true, any pictures?

If he's transferring, yes, he was crying because he's weak and can't take hits. If not, then no, he's tough and it was probably sweat.
