Lifelong Buckeye fan here from the Dayton area. My birthday falls in mid-November, and many a time, I've had what should be a joyous occasion ruined by that school up north. I cried when the Bucks lost to MSU in '98, and I cried again when they won the Fiesta Bowl against Miami. My favorite Buckeye football player is Craig Krenzel, my favorite in other sports is Derek Anderson (basketball, check the siggy, you'll know why.) My favorite Buckeye-related possession is the champagne bottle I popped open at the end of the 2003 Fiesta Bowl. My favorite Buckeye moment is the spontaneous roadtrip me and my best friend took to the Illinois game in 2002, on my birthday. I attended Ohio State starting in the autumn of 1999, but transferred at the end of my second year for academic/bureaucratic reasons. I am 2003 graduate of Capital University, where I double majored in History and Philosophy.

Update 2/4/2005: I now live in Huber Heights, proud home of Will Allen and Marcus Freeman. I am about to enroll in grad school at Wright State University after nearly two years in the workforce. I will be seeking an M.Ed. in the Student Affairs in Higher Education program. I am looking to one day work in admissions, or maybe an athletic department. I hope to someday return to Columbus to work for Ohio State or my alma mater.
