Neither the sportsMonkey nor I will be able to make it to the Spring Game tomorrow, much to our chagrin, but we'd really like to have someone on the scene that could give us some first hand thoughts and remarks about what goes on during the game.

Both the Monkey and I work in the same office, in an underground government facility deep within the bowels of the Marble Cliff Quarry. We are swamped with more work than either of us can handle. The stress is getting to us. I had to talk the Monkey off the ...

That sound you hear is the sound of a million groans as Jason Bourne Justin Boren considers transferring Ohio State.
(On a side note, and not to jinx ourselves, but we Buckeye Fans are setting ourselves up for a major Schadenfreude-laden fall if (and that's a mighty big freaking IF) things ...

... For which it apologizes.
Who says the NIT isn't exciting? I was at the Quaker Steak last night with my bro-in-law, having my way with a basket of chicken wings with the UMass/Syracuse game on in the background. The BIL commented that certainly UMass couldn't come back from 20 down, ...

I know it's not as fun to play the brackets without our beloved Buckeyes, but that won't stop us from holding the second annual Yahoo Pick'em Tournament contest!

Not even the Blizzard of 2008 was enough to cool the SMOKING red hot Buckeyes, as they absolutely torched the paint off the Schott's floor this afternoon, decimating the Spartans 63-54. This is certainly not Sparta. Don't look now, but the Buckeyes are 2-1 in March, and 2-0 against ranked ...

Remember me? I'm still around and I still totally don't want any attention. I'm trying (but not really all that much) to win a basketball championship here. Can't you see how not interested I am in talking about football?
