WTF is the "10th Unit?"

[ORD_Buckeye]

I have never heard this phrase in almost 30 years of following and affiliation with Ohio State University. Seriously, put the trademark lawyers down and slowly back away.

We are apparently 9 units strong. QBs, RBs, WR/TEs, OL, DL, LBs, DBs, FG, Punt....maybe? I've never really known.

So we're the 12th man 10th Unit?

There's a "10" and "unit" joke here, but I'm not going to make it.

Sadly, "how aggy" was what I immediately thought of. That and the "OSU" lawsuit. Somebody needs to reign in the legal department.

Next they will trademark playing loud horrible pop music during the commercial breaks instead of having the band play. (Dogs off my lawn, now.)

Well, actually... it's Eli Apple's mom. It's the team's parent organization.

I thought it was equivalent to "the 12th man"?

This.

The 10th unit is FPAOS (Football Parents at Ohio State). Stacey & Dawn Elliott, Annie Apple, and Candice Lee are probably the most visible members. They've got super-secret message boards, blogs, and everything.
