Guys, I have moved the SEC-Big Ten speed discussion to the "BCS facts for your SEC friends" thread.
We all know that Mark May makes comments about Ohio State in order to boost chatter about him on message boards and to boost his image with all non-Buckeye fans. He uses your posts in threads like this to show ESPN that he has impact in the sport and to boost his salary.
Why would we want to help him boost his pay check?
I would like to suggest that we rename this thread "Mark May: The stupid things he says".
I chose this title to ensure that the thread gets the most hits from search engines.
We could record the stupid things he says in the same fashion as we capture things in the Police Blotter thread. By that I mean, wouldn't it serve the interests of the Buckeyes more if we refrained from running up a post count by commenting on his obvious stupidity and simply provided a thread of stupidity gems that come from his lips?
Consider a thread of posts like this:
"During the halftime show of the Ohio State-Iowa game, May said, 'without doubt, South Florida deserves to be ranked #1 because they are a far better team than Ohio State. Oregon is also a much better team and probably will go undefeated.'"
If you just think of the type of incredibly stupid things he says, such as Ohio State would have at least three losses if it played an SEC or PAC10 schedule, etc., it is clear that such a thread would contain some really funny gems within the span of a few weeks.
Such a thread could quickly become an internet legend by providing an easily accessible and objective reference source on his weighty utterances. It also could become a front page link in any Google check of his name.
May would realize that every stupid comment was being archived and that he had two choices: stop the nonsense or join his friend Trev.
