I just read many of these to my wife. Being South African, she has kind of pieced together what The Game is about and understands the nature of the rivalry, but she kept shaking her head and roaring with laughter, saying "too true, too true". She definitely understands the axe and tree story and the sentiment about the shame it missed the house!
She reminded me that whenever there is a rugby game on TV, which looks like football to my 8 year old, she asks the nearest adult, "which one is Ohio State?"
The Springbok rugby side recently got waylaid by the Aussies. Hearing me discuss it on the phone with a colleague while on the way to school, she politely waited until I hung up and then said, "Don't worry Daddy. We're Buckeyes anyway."
I guess that about says it all!

Actually, my parents both attended tOSU, but never really displayed a great pride for the school, and are barely into the games, at all. My grandma and grandpa both went there, too, and they aren't really into it, either.
I guess the reason(s) that I'm so in to Buckeye sports is because I was born in Dublin, and my family has gone to the university, going back generations. I also guess, it's due to my competitive nature, too.
Whatever it is, all I know is I was born to sport scarlet and grey, and I can't think of anything better than that.

I love threads like these. They make me proud to be a Buckeye. I don't think there's a more passionate fan base out there.

We typically don't swear in our hose. The wifey has a trucker mouth but she keeps it pretty well contained whilst the rugrats are around. However, we know that they will eventually swear and we would like for them to do it effectively. The only swear word the ten year old is allowed to say is "damn" and that is only in the propper context. As in, we don't give a damn for the whole state of Meatchigan.
