Eddie! Eddie! Eddie! (27 days)

Eddie George

I sense a pattern starting here.

FOUR WEEKS AWAY (28 days)

Behold, the future of the Ohio State Running Game:

Beanie Wells

Vernon Gholston is strong.

OSU FootballAt the risk of MotSaG becoming the “Vernon Gholston Blog,” I just wanted to quote Vernon from a recent Dispatch article:

My biggest attribute is my strength.

Yes, yes it is.

We may just have to add a “Vernon Gholston” category here at the blog.

(We promise that more consitent blogging here at the Men of the Scarlet and Gray is forthcoming. We just watched 20 minutes of OSU highlights and YouTube and we are PUMPED)

Those were the days (35 days)

The original Kaiser (and the inspiration for my blogging name, natch), Matt “Kaiser” Wilhelm brings you the look of pure joy that comes with being a Buckeye (and with being 35 days away from kick off)

Matt Wilhelm

The countdown is back! (36 days)

And not a day too early. We’re in the thirties!

Chris Spielman

36 days until glory.

45 Days remaining

Archie Griffin

Could it be anyone else, frankly?

Time sink ahead!

It’s bad enough that we’ve been neglecting the blog so horribly this summer but it’s about to get worse. We appreciate all you guys (and gals!) who’ve stuck with us during this “thin” part of the year. But our time is about to become even more scarce, as most of us will be playing a little game on our Xbox 360s. You might have heard of it:

NCAA 2008

If you’ve got an Xbox Live account and want to play, here’s my Gamercard. Add yours in the comments, and we can be friends!

(I should also note that Sylvester-Yon Rambo also has a 360, but I’ll leave it up to him if he wants to leave his gamercard here on the site. Hopefully we’ll be able to talk Zeke and the sportsMonkey into getting 360s as well, and we can form a MotSaG NCAA 08 league.)

Time marches on (46 days)

Yes, we missed days 49, 48, and 47 but the Miniature Buckeyes should cheer you up!

Is there a veterinarian in the house?
(50 days!)

Because Vernon Gholston’s pythons are SICK.

Vernon Gholston

Yeah, I’ve been waiting a long time to use that joke (h/t to Sylvester-Yon Rambo). 50 days to go.

51 days closer

We’re fifty one days closer… than we were before… today. Or something That really doesn’t make sense, does it? Sorry.

Anthony Schlegel

So I chose Anthony Schlegel because if the things we’ve heard about his *ahem* relationship with his wife are true, then #51 deserves our utmost respect and admiration (Zeke knows what I’m talking about).
