My Buckeye heart aches

After what seems like the 1 billionth bad news day for Ohio State in the last year I think I am finally ready to accept defeat. By now I am sure most of you have heard that more bad news has come down the pipes in the way of more players suspended for taking more illegal benefits. I could go into great detail about who and what they did or how it is the systems fault or that everyone is doing it but I won’t do that. Not this time and not ever again.

This time I am heart broken not because my team is in trouble but because there seems to be a total disregard for the reality that has been cast upon us in the last year. First we had players make stupid mistakes that lots of people do when they are college athletes. Then our beloved coach lied and covered up for them and we are told it is isolated and nothing else will be found. Over the next 10 months we hear that same line over and over like a broken record every time something new comes out. Players are taking illegal benefits and it is isolated to a few individuals. Gene Smith assures us, and it won’t cause the dreaded Lack of Institutional Control or Failure to Monitor charges. Gene Smith keeps telling us there is nothing else to see here and we are moving forward. Gene Smith is an effing liar but what do I expect him to say? That Ohio State has lost control of its players and we should expect extremely harsh penalties because I, Gene Smith have done a horrendous job of running the Athletic Dept? Of course he won’t say that because he desperately is trying to save his job and the school from the NCAA hounds.

I have bad news for you Gene Smith. The gig is up. None of your friendships at the NCAA is going to save OSU now. The players who continued to break rules and take illegal benefits from rogue boosters after already getting caught doing it DON’T GIVE A DAMN FOR THE WHOLE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY. You write up a report to send to the NCAA laughably pretending like these fricking idiots had no idea they were breaking the rules by taking money for a job they weren’t doing. Yet you don’t kick them off the team. You don’t resign from your job as AD at OSU. You instead continue to embarrass and shame Ohio State and its honest athletes and its devoted fans by trying to make us believe lies that our 5 year old kids would make up after breaking mommy’s vase.

To those players who I supported through the beginning of this process because I thought they were being taken advantage of by a bad system: Today some of you proved to me it was greed and excess that drove you to break these rules, not kids being kids. I am struggling with why on earth you all weren’t kicked off the team today. There is no place for you on this year’s team or any future team because you put your self importance and greed above the good of the team. I am angry as hell at you all but a few weeks or months or maybe years down the road I will forgive you and welcome you back to my Buckeye Nation with open arms as time heals all wounds. Today though there is a gaping hole in my heart that you guys caused.

This day in history is the day where I can’t find a reason to defend you Mr. Smith and the players who have besmirched the wonderful name that is the Ohio State University. To you Coach Fickell, if you don’t have the ability to kick these guys off the team then you should quit in protesting them still being on it. If you do have the ability to kick them off the team and didn’t for any reason then shame on you, too.

I can only hope that when all is said and done the NCAA will decide to wipe this entire year off their record books just like last year so I can pretend that this season never happened on the field or off of it. For the first time in this whole thing I am really unsure what to do or feel. I can’t find a way to defend the players or the AD or the coaches. I can’t imagine the NCAA wont change the charges to give us a LOIC and/or FTM violations. If this school doesn’t deserve those charges I can’t imagine who could. E Gordon Gee better start cleaning house now or I will be ready for his dismissal as well. Start to fix this ship now and kick the players off the team and resign Gene Smith or be fired. Luke Fickell, I am sorry this is what you had to deal with but your career at OSU is over and you have given me nothing to try and fight for you to have another chance. I hope the NCAA will have mercy on us by seriously how in the world can they? I will never stop being a Buckeye fan and support my school and its teams. Today though it is becoming way to difficult justify fighting with non-Buckeye fans that they are wrong and that OSU isn’t a school out of control.

It doesn’t help that I am writing this post during a 36 hour period where I have been passing more kidney stones then any OSU QB has footballs all season. My pain is real and it is enormous but it pales in comparison to how my Buckeye Heart aches right now sadly.

  5. SYR – look at the bright side: at least we’re not Michigan fans. I mean, when OSU hits rock bottom, it’s against teams like the Hurricanes, or defending Big 10 champions. Our rock bottom isn’t Appalachian State and seven straight losses to our rival.

    It’s all perspective. OSU will without fail return to where it ought to be, and it’ll seem all the sweeter when it happens.

  6. “SYR – look at the bright side: at least we’re not Michigan fans. I mean, when OSU hits rock bottom, it’s against teams like the Hurricanes, or defending Big 10 champions. Our rock bottom isn’t Appalachian State and seven straight losses to our rival.”

    Well, this quote says it all, your concern is purely about the wins and not the countless acts of scumbaggery that have led to those wins, or the degree to which the coach, the AD and the university President have make the school the subject of ridicule and a laughingstock across the nation.

    You have a gigantic blind spot that leads you to conclude that the infractions and the program success are somehow two uncorrelated realities. Let me offer a clue, there is a huge difference between a honest failure (Michigan) to crappy opponents and a failure to be honest (OSU) against good opponents.

    The only thing bailing out OSU at this juncture is the utter failure of the NCAA to appear to be anything other than completely disingenuous relative to OSU’s infractions.

    By R.Will on Oct 3, 2011

  7. Put down the banana…Cooper’s record was what?…against Michigan. It’s time to face the music. Admit the wrong doing, disinfect the toilet after flushing the terds. If the public will embrace Michael Vick after doing his time, tOSU has a chance too but not until the surprises stop.

    By worthless nutz on Oct 4, 2011

  8. The question that keeps coming to mind is this, would OSU have been as good had these players not chosen OSU because they knew that the cheating would be so easy to do? Is all of OSU’s success built upon this notion or will honest hard work get OSU back to where is once was? Only time will tell.

    By porBUCK on Oct 4, 2011

  9. Yo, Monkey. Never has a posting name been more apropos.

    Dude, THIS is your rock bottom. Your coach has been a liar and a cheat for his entire tenure (and before). OSU will return to strength on the field, but the clowns who run it (Smitty, Gee whiz, the Vestige) have so (ink)stained its reputation that it will take years to bleach out. (Hey, maybe TP can arrange a discount on removals with the local parlor.)

  12. If you think losing to miami is rock bottom you’re in for a big surprise. What we saw last year from texas was the #1 ranked defense and a terrible offense that got them to 5-7. Your offense is just as bad and the D is not good enough, you need an upset just to win 6 games. You will find out what rock bottom really feels like when bowl season starts and your team isn’t on the schedule.

    By Joe on Oct 4, 2011

  13. Hey Monkey. You’re right. You aren’t Michigan. You’ll never be Michigan. You can pay 4 school, but you can’t buy class.

    This article is about how Ohio players, coaches, and admin screwed up and how the defending has to stop and you just take pot shots at UM. You’re a clown.

    RR I was no fan of, but he didn’t pretend to be a saint while LYING for the jihad of “protecting players.” Ohio’s got some demons that have to be exercised. I’d imagine you do too.

    It’s something great about App St that happened wrt UM. It humbled us. Your days are numbered. We’re takin all your recruits. You’re weeks away from NCAA findings. That pie my friend is going 2 taste nice & warm.

    Oh you almost lost to Toledo. You’re closer to “rock bottom” that u think. This isn’t to all Ohio fans, just this dork unless u agree w him.

  18. As a Michigan fan, I was elated when all this started. I told myself “Great! I hope they get what they have coming!”

    Now as a Michigan fan, Ohio State’s troubles are getting old quick. I was a little frustrated with the NCAA’s light touch at first, and I have to admit that I enjoy seeing the Buckeyes struggle on the field.

    But at this point, this is far, far more than what the fans and athletes (not involved in ruining the program) deserve, and no amount of schadenfreude can make me happy to see that group of people go through this.

    And, while I am not going to get ahead of myself concerning Michigan, I am quite convinced that program is heading in the right direction. Once they get there, I want this team beating fellow titans in the final week, rather than continuing this string of inconsequential and lopsided messes.

    For this season, I can’t help but enjoy the disaster that Ohio has fielded this year, but for your sake and the rivalry’s sake, I truly do hope that you can get the poison out of this program.

    So finally, as a Michigan fan, I know what it is like to experience an existential crisis and with that you have my sympathy. I hope the boys to the south can get their shit together. GO BLUE>

  24. @R.Will – “your concern is purely about the wins and not the countless acts of scumbaggery that have led to those wins, or the degree to which the coach, the AD and the university President have make the school the subject of ridicule and a laughingstock across the nation.”

    Might strong words coming from the fan of a university that just fired its coach because of embarrassing losses and NCAA violations.

    And physician, heal thyself… whose AD was forced to resign after getting caught shoving a woman around? At least Gene Smith isn’t going sailing tomorrow and abandoning his program-in-turmoil.

    As regards “laughingstock,” nobody’s pushing that agenda except pride-hurt UM fans. Losing to Appy State? That’s what makes you a laughingstock. Not selling your championship rings for gas money. That’s just sad.

    Mock all you want… but OSU at its worst is still better than UM, as proved by @That’sSixStraightLosses’ comment:
    “@SM – That’s six straight losses, since last year is going to be wiped.”

    The fact that your humiliation and beatdown over the past seven years has gotten you to the point where you BRAG that michigan has ONLY lost 6 in a row due to a hypothetical technicality is all the proof you need of how lowly and irrelevant your program has become.

    And your schadenfruede will make UM’s loss to a mediocre OSU team in November that much more painful for you.

    By sportsMonkey on Oct 4, 2011

  25. I completely disagree. If OSU was 5-0 right now and we heard Herron and Posey were sitting out another game, you wouldn’t be writing this article. You wouldn’t care. It’s simply because the Bucks played so poorly in the two losses. Your anger seems to be a consequence of Ohio State’s record, not those players’ “greed and excess.”

    By Dave on Oct 4, 2011

  26. @Dave- Sorry you feel that way, and nothing you gathered from ever reading anything I have written could possibly lead you to believe that way. So I can only assume you didn’t read this article completely or anything I have ever written before.

    Certainly nothing I wrote in this article mentioned in any way on field issues. I have from the beginning and through this whole season been supportive of the players and coaching staff to the point of fighting my fellow MOTSAGers and Buckeye fans who have criticized their game play this season.

    Even if your theory was that if OSU was 5-0 I wouldn’t have written this post I would say that would be dead wrong. It would be easier to want to dismiss these players and the AD if the team was 5-0 since we wouldn’t need their on the field talent. Instead we are 3-2 and without a doubt need them to play to get better.

    So sorry but you are wrong I would have written it either way and this has nothing to do with on the field issues but 100% off the field issues.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  27. Honestly they’re getting what they deserve. The NCAA should come down hard on ohio state because all they’ve done is lie, lie, and lie some more just to save their butts. Whatever happened to just taking it like a man and being honest with yourself and your fans. I hope you guys get back on your feet soon though so there’s no excuses when we beat you November 26th in the Big House. Best of luck.

    By Eric on Oct 4, 2011

  28. Losing 6 Straight to a program that cheated the whole time doesn’t feel so bad. Because the college world sees OSU a disgrace not Michigan. JT the saint is a joke. The whole rock bottom thing for Mich and OSU is laughable. OSU is not even close to Rock bottom. You will be with LOIC and these MAC recruits your taking in. Not only is Meyer no coming you will not get a coach you want. The damage is done and OSU will not get top level players maybe rather than a few from Ohio. OSU next 5 years will have more loses than Mich had in there previous 5 years. Starting maybe this year Hoke will dominate the rivalry.BY the way Dunn is going Blue and to OSU there is alot more dirt that can come out. This is the minor stuff they didn’t cover up. OSU should be changed to LOIC>

    By ryan on Oct 4, 2011

  29. I wonder if scUM fans even know they are on probation for cheating yet again….

    Seems ironic scUM fans mocking OSU for “cheating”. We aren’t even in your guys cheating league until Terrelle Pryor gets to make his own 30 for 30 ESPN documentary about all of our cheating.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  30. The difference between a Michigan fan in regards to the school’s punishment and an Ohio fan is their admission of guilt. We practiced too much. We got in trouble for it, imposed our sanctions (which were accepted by the NCAA)and we’ve moved on. We don’t sit griping, waiting for someone to come and pat us on the back and tell us it’s going to be okay.

    Ohio fans, organize a parade to celebrate a brazen cheater in Jim Tressel. They scoff at the idea that a LOIC should be implemented when numerous articles have been written that have highlighted a multitude of infractions that have taken place starting back when Tressel was hired.

    You say that Ohio isn’t in Michigan’s realm for cheating? How is that? I can save you the time of looking up what Michigan was punished for and tell you what happened. The NCAA spent a long chunk of time looking into the allegations that were being tossed around about MIchigan and all they came up with was that players spent too much time practicing. They didn’t find any athletes accepting things for free (tattoos, golf, cars, etc…), they didn’t find instances of athletes getting paid for work they didn’t do, they didn’t find printed evidence of their coach (the honorable Senator) being caught in a lie. I’m sorry Sly, but you gotta check your facts before you start spouting off.

    The tide has turned and you and all your grey clad sycophants are running scared because you know that the tsunami coming down on you (which has already started) is going to wipe away all the ill gotten victories and spoils that you’ve stolen over the past ten years.

    Hail to Victors!

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  31. @Kai- clearly you didnt catch the whole 30 for 30 comment. I know you have blacked it out but Jalen Rose and Chris Webber and the other cheaters you guys used to finish 2nd in the B1G every year is a real cheating scandal. Taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in illegal benefits while your coach looks the other way prohibits scUM fans for criticizing any other school about them getting busted for cheating.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  32. @Sly
    That point is invalid. Your previous statement “I wonder if scUM fans even know they are on probation for cheating yet again…” was a statement indicating the probation received under RR, not the Bill Martin scandal. That’s what I was responding too. Also, I wouldn’t hang your hat on a point that talks about a coach turning the other way when wrongdoing was taking place. You wanna be the kettle, I’ll be the pot?

    In regards to your statement stating that cheating prohibits fans from criticizing other cheaters is blatantly stupid. Wrongdoing doesn’t remove the ability to point out other wrongdoing.

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  33. @Kai- you keep forgetting I used the word AGAIN… and then pointing directly back to the scandal I was talking about with the 30 for 30 joke.

    My point still stands you have no right to criticize fans of a team who cheats because you are a fan of a team that cheats.

    Point out the wrongdoing all you want that is fine but to try and sit highly on your throne looking down on us while you team is on probation for cheating as we speak and has the biggest cheating scandal in the history of the NCAA short of SMU is laughable.

    You are the pot and the kettle Kai.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  34. You lost 7 straight…look it up.

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  35. I’m not sitting here denying that we did wrongdoing. I think you forget that. The difference between a good AD/President and a bad one is how we reacted to that problem compared to how your two clowns reacted.

    Think what you may, but Ohio is going to get punished to the extent that Michigan did after the fab five came. You deserve it. That’s not a sitting “highly” on my throne looking down. That’s a statement made from a fan who has seen his school mess up and knows that the same happened to you.

    You really have to take a lesson in grammar to better understand things. We aren’t cheating, you are the ones that are cheating. You just had two players already on suspension for cheating who cheated AGAIN! That would require using a present tense verb, not past tense (which is what you’d use in re: to Michigan)

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  36. @Kai- sign of losing an argument = making fun of their grammar.

    I didnt realize you were a member of the NCAA or a fortune teller to know exactly how OSU is going to get punished. You should have said so from the beginning so I could have taken you more serious. :)

    It is ok we are both fans of schools with not so proud histories of both recent and long past cheating tendencies. You can’t be a fan of college football and not be unless you are a fan of Notre Dame or PSU the only 2 schools left with no major violations.

    I am not making excuses in this post for the behavior of certain players and the AD. They are morons and need to leave the program was my stance from the beginning of this post. That however doesn’t make me laugh any less to read scUM fans trying to be judge jury and executioner on my team. If you were then it would be the most corrupt legal system in the world.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  37. No, me making fun of your grammar and writing is more an indictment of MY lack of intelligence and education.

    If I could read the future I’d be a lot richer, my friend. Just making educated guesses…

    I wonder what’s different this time? Oh, that’s right… they only show up to taunt OSU, not to defend their sorry program.

  42. Tell me again what advantage OSU gained by getting free tattoo’s?

    Did those tattoo’s give OSU players a more aerodynamic, stream lined playing speed?

    Did those tattoo’s physically intimidate opposing teams?

    Yeah…OSU cheated all right.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  44. @Kai

    “Wanna” and “Gotta” are not words.

    Please take your grammar lessons elsewhere.

    And yes…UM has lost to OSU 7 times in a row.

    Even though OSU’s win was vacated…UM’s loss stays.

    It’s 3:12pm and Brady Hoke just ate another side of beef.

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  45. @kade – it’s simple physics, really. The ink in the tattoo added to the players mass (player + ink) = total mass. Therefore, using Newtonian force models, F = (player + ink)a, and therefore the force is increased with constant acceleration.

    In short, they hit microscopically harder. QED.

    Meanwhile, in Miami, Shapiro is hosting a rave for the starting seniors, complete with drugs and prostitutes. But of course it makes more sense for the NCAA to go after Posey’s 22.5 hr paycheck when he only worked 21.75.

    By sportsMonkey on Oct 4, 2011

  46. @Kade

    Cheating is defined as “to violate rules and regulations” so yes they did.

    The funny thing about the Ohio players getting free tattoos is that it did nothing for their games. It was a stupid thing to do that resulted in all of your wins being vacated last year. Worth it?

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  47. It’s pretty easy to get high quality recruits when you give young, naive high school kids money, cars, and tattoo’s. They’re easily persuaded. Michigan did it the right way. We actually have class.

    By Eric on Oct 4, 2011

  48. @Kai – vacating victories hurts only the stats books, not the fans. I am not hurt in the least by the fact that some stat book won’t show a victory over UM, because I saw it happen on TV, and that’s all that matters to me.

    By sportsMonkey on Oct 4, 2011

  49. You mean Ohio State players….don’t you?

    Ohio is a totally different school…

    I watched OSU beat the hell out of Michigan last year to a tune of 37-7. I laughed when Denard Robinson hurt his finger and was forced out of the game.

    You just admitted that tattoo’s played ZERO part in OSU winning last year.

    So to answer your question…vacating those games…to me…means literally NOTHING.

    I was at the Sugar Bowl and watched OSU beat Arkansas…

    These memories can NEVER be taken away. Sure, you can take away a set of data points from last year….at then end of it all…

    OSU still kicked your ass.

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  50. Seriously Eric? Did you guys not get the Fab 5 by giving them hundreds of thousands of dollars?

    Did your team not have class in the 90s? Did your team not have class a few years back when they were cheating by breaking NCAA practice rules?

    Do you guys only have class when it is good for your argument?

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  51. Yes, Michigan did it the right way….

    They didn’t get caught.

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  52. Eric, there was no free cars, or tattoos.

    Some players sold their stuff for tattoos. It was wrong and they were punished for it.

    Nobody earned free cars, no matter how many UM fans put their fingers in their ears, stomp their feet, and insist otherwise. That allegation was disproved by OSU, the Ohio BMV, and the NCAA.

    And, if you note SYR’s entire point, the players that did accept cash for charity attendance or for not working should go. They should go precisely because we learned it was wrong when UM got caught doing it.

    By sportsMonkey on Oct 4, 2011

  53. I never said tattoos did anything for their physical performance. It was a violation of rules in how they obtained them. As was a lot of other stuff that OSU is under investigation for.

    So winning is more important than following the rules? I know we’ve had infractions in the past, but nothing like this in our football program.

    I forget, but what’s the all time record between Michigan and Ohio State? Where’s Jim Tressel now? What’s your current record? What happened to your Heisman hopeful, TP? Why aren’t Herron and Posey starting this week? What happened with Clarett? How much money did Santonio fess up to taking while he was at OSU? Who’s Ted Sarniak?

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  54. @Kai- How much money did Santonio Holmes admit to taking at OSU?

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  55. @Kai – what’s the record since World War II? Where’s Lloyd Carr now? Where’s Rich Rodriguez now? What happened to your Heisman hopeful, Mike Hart? What happened with Justin Boren? What happened with Charles Woodson and his booster troubles? How much money did the Fab 5 take while they were at UM? Why did your AD assault that woman and get fired? Who’s Gary Moeller?

    By sportsMonkey on Oct 4, 2011

  56. That’s the only one you want to chat about from that? But, in answer, Josh Luch’s article from 2010 in where he talks about talking to Santonio who admitted to taking money while at OSU is where I pulled that from.

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  57. @Kai- How much money did he admit to taking? Let me guess there is no answer to your question is there?

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  58. True, but at the end of the day Michigan’s on the rise and you might not want to admit it but Hoke is your guy’s worst nightmare. Have you checked out the class were bringing in next year? Don’t forget, history tells us that Michigan is overall the better team and university. Series record vs ohio 57-44-6. Michigan has 11 national championships, you have 7. We have the most wins in ALL OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL.

    By Eric on Oct 4, 2011

  59. @Eric- Thanks for admitting you were wrong. My guy is not afraid of Hoke or this years scUM team. We have seen this same team year after year. Hot start until they play a real team then the team crumbles. scUM fans living off the past as always. scUm is no different then Notre Lame a shamble of a proud program of the past. What will you guys do if you lose to OSU this year? Oh the humanity!!!

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  60. I don’t have time to count, but in answer to the others. Lloyd is retired, gracefully. Mike Hart is coaching at EMU. Justin Boren is on a practice squad. Woodson is winning Super Bowls. 38,000 is what is on govt. record. I don’t know the sexual proclivities of our AD. Gary’s sitting at home too.

    So out of those things there is only two bad things that I see: Cwebb admitted his guilt and a sexual assualt.

    where are my question’s answers?

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  61. How are you guys reacting to your current record? Doesn’t look too hot in Columbus…. Especially when you lose to Nebraska this week….

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  63. I don’t know the actual #, I don’t. I do know he admitted to it. That’s enough for me

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  64. Sylvester, so your saying if ohio had the history of winning that Michigan does you wouldn’t try to rub it in our face? Because I highly doubt you guys wouldn’t. It’s not living in the past, it’s being proud of our history.

    By Eric on Oct 4, 2011

  65. @Kai- hahaha so you were there when a dirty NFL agent banned by the NFL for being dirty asked Santonio to be one of his clients but Santonio told him no because he already had an agent that was paying him?

    Please stop while you can. You keep pretending like rumors and myths are facts and truths. You are looking like a moron.

  66. He was in school at the time….

    Also, where are the answers to all the other questions. Are you focusing on this because your only chance of “winning” a point is that one question? Since you’re not answering any of those I will assume you’re conceding victory. Thanks for playing

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  67. @Eric- Fine you can live off those scUM teams from 1890s to 1920 that won the first 20 games in the series. All those NCs you won before 1950. All those more victories you have while you had a team for years before OSU even had a team to have the most CFB wins.

    We will have to live with having more wins in modern football. More B1G titles then any team ever. More Heisman winners. More NCs in the modern era. More BCS wins then any school in CFB. More BCS appearances than any school in CFB. Less losses in the last 3 years then you guys have wins.

    Shew glad we cleared that all up.

  68. @Kai- Michigan leading 57-44-6…..Jim Tressel is making bank in the NFL…. 3-2….. TP was taken in the 3rd round by the Oakland Raiders and will play in the NFL this weekend….. Because Ohio State found out they broke rules and self reported the problems to the NCAA and suspended them themselves….. Clarett is playing in the UFL….. Santonio didnt fess up to taking any money while at OSU….. TPs mentor and father figure.

    I didnt realize you didnt know the answers to any of your questions. How silly of me to assume that you already knew them. I should have known you didn’t though after providing no answer to how much money did Santonio admit to taking.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  69. Here’s what I know. OSU won on the backs of shady dealings and broken rules. You have a history of coaches who make poor decisions and players who’ve made even worse decisions.

    Have a good day, this has been fun. Go Blue and Bababooey to ya’ll

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  70. @Kai- Here’s what I know. scUM lost on the backs of shady dealings and broken rules. You have a history of coaches who make poor decisions and players who’ve made even worse decisions.

    Have a good day, this has been fun proving you a moron all day long. :)

  71. last 10 years:

    UM:

    1-9 vs. OSU

  72. @J = Another scUM Fortune Teller

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  73. Our coaches punched people? Our coaches blatantly broke and ignored rules and professed publicly to be a saint? No, we practiced too much. sorry, that’s a point to me. All you’ve done today in this post is ignore points you can’t win while I’ve answered everything. Typical for an OSU fan to not see what’s in front of their noses.
    @Kade

    What happened right before those 10 years? You went through the same stint with Cooper, whom OSU fired. Cyclical. Now history is about to repeat itself and you’re going to cry the whole time about how you didn’t deserve it.

    See you guys from the top while you’re at the bottom for the next ten years. Later, losers

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  74. It’s not future telling when Kyle and Dymonte (and probably his cousin come up North)

    By Kai on Oct 4, 2011

  75. @Kai and all the scUM fans thanks for all the hits today. El Kaiser thanks you for paying his car payment this month as well. ;)

    @Kai- When you can answer your own questions feel free to come back and chat with me.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  76. @Kai- So now you are “future telling” that those Ohio guys are going to make your team unbeatable. Stop rubbing your crystal ball it is turning blue!!!

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  77. This seems to happen every year with UM…

    They win their first 4 games or so and start thumping their chests…

    With a schedule of:

    Western Michigan
    Eastern Michigan
    Notre Dame
    San Diego State
    Minnesota

    Don’t get all that cocky.

    UM plays two teams that are currently ranked and I’m guessing that only one of those teams will be ranked at the time the game is played.

    And until UM beats OSU…STFU.

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  78. LOL…

    None of them.

  79. Dear Michigan Future Tellers,

    I’ve looked into my crystal ball and this is what I saw:

  80. Must be a slow week on the scUM blog scene! Go back up north, and figure out how you will keep your QB healthy during the B1G gauntlet. Oh before you go please look on the top left of this website

    http://www.buckeyextra.com/content/index.html

    See if my team hadn’t won in about a decade I would grasp at the idea that a vacated win(not game), wasn’t actually played. Unfortunately for you all it was!

    By Mike on Oct 4, 2011

  81. after a nine month colonoscopy by the NCAA/ESPN/CNNSI/etc…we have come up with :

    1. free tattoos

    2. gas money for attending a charity event

    3. overpayment for summer jobs

    4. free round of golf

    Earth Shattering Stuff….

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  82. @J- If you come around weekly you will see a meltdown post from me. hahaha

    Unfortunately for you scUM fans it never comes off a defeat to you guys in any of the meaningful sports so you don’t read it enough. Please feel free to come back and post as you can we love the traffic.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  83. I found Kai and J:

    Among others

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  84. Hint: J is the one riding in the little cart…

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  85. VS. Um since 1950?

    32-27-2

    By Kade on Oct 4, 2011

  86. @J- stop living off other teams beating OSU just because your team can’t find a way to do it.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  87. @J- Every time you post something it makes you look dumber and dumber. Stop already it is clear you are trolling and have nothing to add to the conversation at hand.

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  88. @J- By how many points is your team going to lose by this weekend?

    OSU will win this weekend 27-17…. didnt you hear we got our Blind Side LT guy back so we wont lose anymore #instantimprovement

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  89. @J- I only answer questions if the person asking them also answers questions….. By how many points will your team lose by this weekend?

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 4, 2011

  90. @J- I would be more surprised if scUM doesn’t once again collapse after playing cupcakes to start the season.

  92. Kade – I think the fact that you used a picture of a handicapped person to insult someone is disgusting.

    By Todd on Oct 7, 2011

  93. Todd,

    I find your inability to process the fact that it was a joke disgusting.

    I also find the fact that you assume Michigan fans are all handicapped to be disgusting as well.

    By Kade on Oct 7, 2011

  94. @Todd- the fact that you came here and read all the insults and jokes on here and that one picture disturbed you the most AMAZES me!!! Go away Far away

    By Sylvester-Yon Rambo on Oct 7, 2011

  95. I think the fact that I missed out on all this is disgusting.
