    Folks from Michigan refer to them as "Ohio State Sucks"........should we put a "the" infront of that now........I'm just saying!

    Personally I like it. IMO being different shows initiative and class. Bet more schools wish they had thought of it first............maybe they did but are just too scared to refer themselves in that way..........lol.

    Considering the state of Michigan is 2-15 against the Bucks over the last decade, I would expect nothing less. ;)

    MSU 0-7

    And, I'll ask again.....As opposed to which other Ohio State University?

    I could actually half-assed understand it in a state like NC.....where we have several "UNC" schools. But, really......how many Ohio State Universities are there?

    Dear Clueless In North Carolina,

    The Ohio State University was founded in 1870 as a land-grant university in accordance with the Morrill Act of 1862 under the name of the Ohio Agricultural and Mechanical College. The school was originally situated within a farming community located on the northern edge of Columbus. While some interests in the state had hoped that the new university would focus on matriculating students of various agricultural and mechanical disciplines, Governor Rutherford B. Hayes foresaw a more classic, comprehensive university, and manipulated both the university's location and its initial board of trustees towards that end. Later that year, the university welcomed its first class of 24 students. In 1878, and in light of its expanded focus, the college permanently changed its name to the now-familiar "The Ohio State University", with "The" as part of its official name.

    Any further questions should be sought through a paranormal channeling expert who can help you have a conversation with the dead. Apparently you aren't getting what you need in this conversation from the living:)

    This thread was initiated to get a rise out of OSU fans, otherwise you wouldn't have put in the part about whooping ass. Can you start a topic that is constructive and not meant to pit people against each other, or are you that lonely and bored?

    Perhaps setting the white rock in front of the house will bring back the variety you need again to stay busy, as you obviously are suffering from boredom or a lack of something.:tu:

    :rock::rock:P.S. just scored a sweet Pope and Young Carrot Cake!!!!:rock::rock:

    Why does everyone else wanna tell me why I initiated the thread. I already told you why I did it.

    Unless you played football at OSU, I really haven't heard you refer to OSU as "THE OSU". If you are just a casual....or even a rabid fan....and you sit around citing "Well....I didn't go to THE Ohio State University.....but I still love them"....or...."I think THE Ohio State University will beat Michigan, this year", then yeah.....I was inferring why you do so?????

    And about the ass-kicking part (for probably the 3rd time).....I played against Ohio State University in '83. They weren't saying, then, that they were THE Ohio State University. And yes, we played 3 times and whipped their asses 3 times. It was quite the stat-building weekend.

    What team did YOU play for?
    What position did YOU play?
    Did YOU play in the actual games?
    Do YOU have proof that YOU are not feeding us a line of crap?
    What is the relevance of YOU kicking their asses and why is it needed in the title of the thread?
    Do You really think the title needs to have YOUR three measly games to debate "THE" when "THE" Ohio State University has played thousands of games between sports?

    Raceway....move along. Do you think I'm stupid? Let me tell you a secret......There are some SERIOUSLY deranged dumb asses in internet forums who would use personal imformation to do REALLY nasty things. Seriously.....some people are SO F'd up, they take these internet discussions WAYYYyyyyyy too seriously.

    Do I care what you think? You didn't need to respond to this thread. It's the internet, ya know??? The only people who could feel any twinge of being mad over the thread header "might" be the guys who played on that OSU team. If you were on that team, I apologize (for saying what I did....and for the carnage that was dished out to you, that weekend).

    But, listen...don't sell yourself short. No use putting a P&Y cake in a B&C body. I'd go bigger.

    Jeff, I knew you were full of ****. Your college baseball numbers would hardly put your life in danger, if you actually had numbers. Nice cop out there button buck;)

    Oh....I can give numbers all you want. I played the 5 pos. in all 3 games. If I recall correctly, we scored 27 runs in the homestand.....and OSU scored 2 or 3.

    See...if all you want's numbers....that's easy.

    Listen....you know you've never owned any NC boys. You may have swallowed a couple.....but owned??????

    Another fabrication Jeff. Do you have the dates to back this up?

    The cake was a Carrot Cake Light, 10 calories per 8ounce serving;)

    You caught me, Raceway. I never played college ball. I'm just another jock-sniffer......like you.

    But for the record....I have no qualms in dubbing you THE jock sniffer. It's all making sense to me, now. I may have been premature in this thread.

    Jeff, Jeff, Jeff, I am sorry you got owned and have nothing to fall back on but calling someone fat and a jock sniffer. Good luck to you buddy, we all know that you are full of crap now and too scared to prove otherwise.:violin:

    No. Just too SMART.

    Guys like you do scare me. But, not for reasons you think.
