WOOOO.
Ohio State 30 Purdue 37
Not related to the game, but the just announced Mike Vrabel was traded to Kansas City. Bummer for him.
Back to the game. How does Ed Hightower continue to be employed?
The Buckeyes started the second half nice and quick but they’ve shot themselves in the foot a couple times and instead of being within 2 are now down by 7.
Two basketball games of interest to me tonight, The Buckeyes and The Cavs.
Feel free to post what you feel so inclined to post.
I feel free to say that this is an ugly start to the game. Purdue up quickly, 10-2.
…the sound of Columbus becoming an Indians town…
There was nothing more annoying about living in Columbus than hearing about how everyone was a Yankee fan, because the Clippers were the AAA affiliate for the club. I mean really…who wouldnt be a Yankee fan when you would get to watch Derek Jeter play in Columbus for about 12 minutes and then leave for the Bronx.
Every once in a while a special moment will occur for the general sports fan. Sometimes these moments will include your favorite team, which can be all sorts of awesome or a craptastic dose of terribleness.
Being an Indians fans has been a tough go for the YNBA this season and most seasons, but there have been a few occaisions, such as seven years ago today, that will always manifest a little warmth in my heart (notably the sub-cockle region).
2007 was the year of the “Almost!!” for teams that hail from the State of Ohio.
There were eight sports teams from Ohio that either lost a championship game or had the coveted #1 ranking elude them in 2007. Never before have so many teams from a single state reached within inches of the promised land, only to fail at accomplishing the utmost feat.
The Reds played a pathetic series on the Left Coast last week against the Dodgers. Aside from having to deal with the humiliation of losing three in a row and dropping to the bottom of the Central, the Reds’ fielders had to deal with some pretty rough heckling from the LA fans.
In the most recent installment of the “Battle of the Identical Logos,” the Red Stockings were down by five runs in the fifth, then managed to score six times in the sixth to finish Chicago. To add insult to injury, the winning run was walked in.
As of this spring, the Columbus Clippers have ended their decades-long affiliation with the New York Yankees. Moving into the Yankees’ place as Columbus’ parent organization are the Washington Nationals.
This change should breathe a bit of life into the ballclub.
The AP is reporting that the New York Yankees are planning to drop the Columbus Clippers as their farm team.
For the past several decades, most of the talent dressing in New York pinstripes came from the triple-A Clippers.
It’s interesting timing.
September 11th, 1985. Pete Rose breaks Ty Cobb’s base hits record.
Back when baseball was still the national pasttime, and before he became a pariah, Rose spent a humid summer chasing the ghost of Cobb across the green fields of America.
In the background of all the craziness going on here in Ohio – the Rambo-esque incident with [HWSNBN], all the Browns’ preseason injuries, and the criminal behavior of some Bengals players – the Reds are quietly continuing their struggle for a NL wild card spot.
If you’re like me, you’re a thirty-something sports fan who plays video games and at some point collected baseball cards. More to the point, if you’re really like me, you collected cards during the late eighties/early nineties. If that’s the case, than Joe’s Worthless Baseball Card Collection is for you.
Can the Indians turn things around? More importantly, is it too late?
This time last year, after the all-star break, the Indians turned on the jets and made a run at the Chicago White Sox deep into September. They ultimately fell short, but not by much.
Well, the Indians finally did something they haven’t managed to do in months… start a series with a victory.
So, the question is: Are the recent difficulties in Cleveland (losers of 11 of the past 16 games and seven consecutive series) due to simply playing in MLB’s toughest division?
