How right you are!! Today I was interviewing a member of the client's staff regarding a process he oversees. To break the ice I made a comment (after seeing a Penn State logo on his desk) that he must be a Nittany Lion fan. He commented that he was and I told him that I had a lot of respect for their program and their B-Ball team played us tough both times this year.
The talk quickly went to Oden and his decision whether to return next year and his dislike for players leaving early for the pros. He further went on to say that the NBA should adapt the NFL rule (can't leave for a number of years). He then brought up MoC and his challenge to that rule and then he said this.....
That coach at OSU is a sleezeball and he called the school U of Miami NORTH. He then went on to say that ND, Scum and PU were the pillars of the Midwest and OSU has stained the reputation of the Big Ten. Our standards are lower and that is why we have won a lot of games over the last few years because we are a SEC Team playing in the Big Ten.
Since he is the client I had to hold my tongue and I told the partner after exiting the building that it took every ounce of patience I had not to 'rip that guy a new asshole."
It is a damn shame some people don't want to give OSU and Tressel their props because they are jealous and their school contends for the Big ten title once every decade. Thanks just had to blow off a little steam....
