Will Boeckman be Benched?

A normal person might be embarrassed to have set this bet up in the first place. So of course it's no surprise to anyone that I'm not embarrassed.

Was it a mistake. Hell yeah it was. I was trying to make a point, and in so doing I've put 95% of all v$ on BP in the hands of 20 users (as soon as I hit the "Settle" button). That is not at all in keeping with the wishes of the people who created this place, and they should probably revoke my vBookie priviledges for it.

But I'm still not embarrassed.

I believed in Todd. I really thought that the toughness he showed at times last year would come back. I will never apologize for that, because I know it's still there. But after this, he may never find it again.

For whatever reason, he lost that edge. For this to happen at a time when he is searching for it will more than likely bury it so deep that his football career will be long-over by the time he finds it again.

Embarrassed? No. Fuck no.

But my heart is broken for Todd.

Stay strong TB. You are a fine young man, and you always put the good of the team ahead of yourself. No matter what happens, you are a great Buckeye to me.

PS: To those of you who go to The Game this year...

If you see/hear anyone boo Todd when he is introduced for his Senior Day moment; punch their teeth in. I was there when it happened to Tom Tupa... Todd may not be an all-american like Tom was, but he deserves much better. It should never happen to another Buckeye.
