Wife is dragging me to some wedding of people she barely talked to in nursing school. Fuck this I'm going to be miserable....

"Excuse me hun I have to go to the bathroom again" which happens to be next to the sports bar.

Seriously FUCK fall weddings. Who does that?

I was told fall wedding so I planned mine accordingly. Wedding is week of Rutgers game (should be biggest potentially only blowout of the year). Honeymoon is bye week. Fuck anyone that gives a shit about any other team.

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

Just gonna drop this here...

So is the idea to make it look like an empty stadium?

Remember back in 2006 when Iowa went "black out" on us? We killed them and afterwards, Troy Smith said he loved the black out because it felt like the stands looked empty. We all said "Stupid Iowa, why would you go all black and make things look empty with the night sky? Ohio State would never do something that dumb." Yeah, I remember that.... stupid Iowa...

Good times. I still think this entire idea is dumb, mainly because the uniforms are fucking ugly. I may change my tune when I actually see the team in them, but for now they're hideous. Plus the idea that Ohio State needs to do anything as gimmicky as a "black out" or whatever is asinine. I remember when fans drunk off their asses shouting obscenities was enough to get opposing teams to shit their pants.

Can I come in black face to support the team?

A couple of phrase substitutions and this thread reads like a BP classic on drug use punishment vs. tolerance.

So... Old & Busted vs. New Hotness?

 

[matcar]

that is the whole point

the only teams who do that gimmicky [Mark May] are the mid majors that do need to

when a CFB blue blood does [Mark May] a mid major would do, it does not reflect well on the blue blood

I suspect the Shoe will be absolutely ROCKING Saturday night and this will come off being a cool event.

Bell bottoms aren't still having their day? Did I miss something? Are you saying I'm behind the times?

No. Disgruntled traditionalists vs. sanctimonious anti-traditionalists. Neither's especially old or new. The sanctimonious anti-traditionalists are just more obnoxious.
