Earlier this week I wrestled with a handful of social-media purists who could not/would not acknowledge my arguments on ghostwriting and blogging. If you missed it, just scroll down one post. Nothing I said or will ever say on this issue can change their minds. They’ve covered their ears, as w...

Fulmer Cuprising! Iowa; Ohio State; and Arkansas. All three strike with a boozy determination to bolt their teams into the Fulmer Cup race. Full update shortly with points awarded, but the most active weekend of the Cup season has a common thread running through it: the need to get crunk no matter i...

  Let's blame the economy for this, too: Teachers wishing to commit a crime have caught on to not give it away for free to students, when they can turn a trick and turn a quick buck. Only in the unfortunate case of Ohio teacher Amber Carter, it led to a felony charge.  Amber was arrest...

Our much-delayed Fulmer Cupdate runneth over with Ball State leading the way thanks to his offences both as a person, and as a Ball State football player. Le board, courtesy of Brian, who as always is hung like Reggie Fuckin’ Nelson. Notes without clarification or apologies follow. Notes: Dane...

Over the years, I’ve turned more and more into an NFL fan over a college fan. It’s just how I am. The bowl games, to be completely honest, don’t mean that much to me (outside of the ones that Georgia Tech and Tennessee are participants in; and in this year’s case, given UT su...

Gee, it seems like it was just twelve months ago that tOSU was getting their Buckeyes kicked in by an angry SEC team in their bowl game. Oh wait, that was two years ago. This year, the Big 12 gets their shot at embarrassing an entire conference, an entire state, and the spirit of decency and fair pl...

My husband still claims that he doesn't understand why the entire state of Ohio is gaga over the Ohio State Buckeyes.  Even after seeing this. My 5 year old nephew got a little Buckeye uniform, complete with shoulder pads, football pants and a helmet (with three Buckeye leaves--he'll h...
