Monday, January 14th, 2008OSU's Little Animal, the 2006 Nagurski and 2007 Butkus Award winner, has decided to return. "I'm having too much fun at Ohio State... Money can't give you this experience, especially your senior season with the way this season could go." Word is that A.J. Hawk gave the young man some good advice. ...
Weak, pathetic Colts embarrass themselves; division
Sunday, January 13th, 2008The Colts are finally being exposed as an overrated team that doesn't deserve to compete for the title. I mean, losing to a team with more losses than you? How pathetic.

Luongo out, LeClaire in
Saturday, January 12th, 2008UPDATE: See Below. It looks like the French Alfalfa is going to start in goal for the Western Conference All-Star team. Way to go, Pazzy. LeClaire was a "distant second" in voting, but Luongo has a very pregnant wife to take care of. Therefore, the Columbus netminder will fill the slot. Even ...

Good Coach / Bad Coach
Friday, January 4th, 2008So, you're the head coach of a team that just played its last game. You're asked to say a few words to (or about) your seniors - your captains - that have sacrificed so much for your program. Young men that have worked hard for you. Men that could have ...

Tyson Gentry - “Dignity and Character”
Sunday, December 30th, 2007CSTV has been showing a short video of OSU punter/WR Tyson Gentry, and the aftermath of his injury. Pretty inspirational stuff.

Specifically, the Big 10 went 36-9, while the SEC went 40-8 (disparagement due to the SEC having one more team than the ...
Way to go, Purdue
Thursday, December 27th, 2007...although thanks A LOT for leaving me with short fingernails. Hope they grow out by January 7th. The Boilermakers - well, their offense at least - started the Big 10 bowl season off admirably. Joe Tiller did just about everything he could to lose it for them, with some very odd ...
MotSaG Mythbusters
Wednesday, December 26th, 2007Myth: OSU and LSU "backed in" to the Bourbon Bowl; were "arbitrarily picked." OSU and/or LSU were listed in either first or second place for seven of the eight weeks the BCS was being calculated. The two teams accounted for 56% of all first- or second-place BCS votes in 2007. The remaining ...
Scandal brewing?
Wednesday, December 19th, 2007This is either the shameful start of some serious character assassination, born of retaliatory motives - or the beginning of what could turn out to be a major story.
