That's OK I'm just a proud Buckeye...
I went went to OSU, met my wife there and we both actually manged to graduate as Buckeye Alumni even after our first born son was delivered at OSU hospital, it doesn't get anymore Buckeye than that :mrgreen:
But it's nice to have another Ohioan onboard...who do you root for?
Nothing like Hiney-gate on a crisp fall morning in Ohio!!!

Truthfully, I'm not a fan of college football. Being born and raised in Cleveland, I'm a Dawg fan. Went to most of the games as a kid. Watched the likes of Jim Brown, Leroy Kelly, Gary Collins, Frank Ryan, Lou Groza, etc. Went to the airport to meet the team after the '64 championship win. Probably before your time. My problem with Columbus and OSU football is when they lose, the community is down the entire week until next saturday. When they win, stories saturate the media. I get sick of the, we're #1 chants. Granted, the Browns don't win many games, but after a lose, they talk about it monday morning, drop it and life goes on. Since '99 we have adjusted to more L's than W's. I will admit that I did follow OSU during the days of Woody Hayes. His players behaved. Different era for both coaches and players.
P.S. I was glad OSU beat Miami for the championship. Good vs. Evil.

Hey SigZagger your telling me you are 2 days older than football right?? If you can remember Marion Motley, Lou "the toe" Groza, and Jim Brown. Back when they were a power house.
Just fun'in with ya. I was raised in Cincinnati and the Browns was our team. I sure don't miss that city. It was a fun place back then, but I wouldn't live there now. Have a Good Day you Buckeyes.

What you have to understand about Ohio State Football and Columbus, is that the Buckeye's are our Pro Sports team :smt048 :mrgreen: , yea I know we have hockey and socccer, ok, I actually love going to BlueJackets Games, but Buckeye Football, that's out pro team like the Brownies in Cleveland....I'm a life long Cleveland Fan myself, fom Youngstown, that no-mans land between Pittsburgh and Cleveland

Glad to hear it. Seems like some from that area of the state slipped over to the dark side when the Browns were not playing well. For some reason the Brownies just can't seem to get jump started. :smt022 Regarding the Buckeyes being Columbus' "pro" sports team. How about the best damn high school team in the state. :smt062 Actually, they are very good. As long as they don't play anyone from the SEC, PAC10, etc.
Isn't the Big10 really the Big5?Go Browns
7-9 would be better than last year :smt022

Born in the NE rust belt, parents moved when I was 2, best thing that ever happened to me. No offence.
Nice to see a fellow Buckeye here! I like Georgia too, most beautiful women I've ever met were on a roadtrip to Georgia, something about that Southern sweetness too MMMmmmm. (Mr. P...Where at from the NE rustbelt? I'm from the Mahoning valley myself, relocated to Columbus for better opportunities, wife's from Cleveland)
I didn't go to the Penn State Game, but it was on for sure. There's an OSU flag flying on my house!! Bring on Iowa :smt062

N.E. Ohio here. Between Akron and Medina. Land of many gunshows. Good to see other Ohioans on the forum.
Hi guys!
I've been in Columbus for over 28 years. I was born/raised in Dayton.
I guess the Bengals/Browns controversy is over for this year. :mrgreen:
There are NRA Bullseye leagues in Powell, New Albany and at OSU, Cowboy Action Shooting in Mt. Vernon and Circleville, IDPA in Pickaway County, .22 Metalic Silhouette in Lancaster, etc., etc. There's something for everybody!
