And I'm sure that all the fans were there solely due to their loyalty and devotion to the team: getting paid $10/hour had nothing to do with it.

Don't know how long it's been since you last shoveled snow, but $10/hr for that kind of work is not a great wage at all...

 

[BUCKYLE]

Yeah 10/hr for shoveling snow ain't shit. My current employer is offering $3 more than whatever you make an hr to shovel snow if needed this winter and i don't think anyone makes less than $10

Shit sign me up. I would love to make 30 bucks an hour shoveling snow.

 

[BUCKYLE]

Not sure whether you're bragging about making $27/hr or saying manual labor shouldn't pay anything.

 

[colobuck79]

I would pay to shovel the snow. Does that make me stupid, crazy, or altruistic.

And serious question, with all the snow on the ground is it still possible to salt the fields? Or should we just settle for impaling the men, enslaving the women and burning the villages?

 

[youra6]

Not sure whether you're bragging about making $27/hr or saying manual labor shouldn't pay anything.

Nope, in school now. I just picked a arbitrary number.

My point is that there is a limit of how much a person would get paid shoveling snow. ie, I would never make 30 dollars an hour shoveling snow.

Can people make 30/hour doing other kinds of manual labor? Of course. Electricians, truck drivers easily make that much.

 

[Bill Lucas]

Trap games generally occur the week before you play a big game. We play fucking Indiana next week. Let me reiterate. FUCKING Indiana. Buckeyes are prepared, focused and roll tomorrow.

 

[BUCKYLE]

Neither of which are really labor. Of course there's a limit. My point is that if you're shoveling snow for $10 an hour at a CFB stadium, you're doing it for more than money.

Currently 65 in Las Vegas. Gonna get down to 45 tonight. And I'm gonna drive home in shorts and a golf shirt with the top down.

27 ain't cold. 3 is cold.

 

[BUCKYLE]

I worked outside in the winter for years. If you dress properly it's not an issue. If you're active, it's even less of an issue.
Ohio State players will dress for the occasion and I hope they'll be active.

The best team will win.

Bucks roll. 41-20

This essence of this game will be style points: did tOSU beat them worse than TCU? Everyone will ignore the intransitive nature of college football. This will be very difficult because of TCU "forcing" 5 turnovers. 30-7 is a tough act to beat.

That will be considered proof that tOSU does not belong in the playoffs, due to a more narrow margin of victory.

Where were the games played? Injury issues? Weather? Not so cut and dry just by margin of victory.

Then tOSU beating Sparty by only one TD less than Oregon AT East Lansing while Nike got them at home should be proof that tOSU belongs in the playoff.
