Does that line work on British women?

People from North Carolina talk about how their football is superior? They're probably just getting a little crazed waiting for basketball season to start. |

I've been told before that Ohio University had a lawsuit against tOSU over the trademarked word "Ohio" and thus we were forced to have THE put in front of it as in comparsion to other schools who have THE in their name but their players in the NFL and etc dont say it as such.

Arrogance? I don't see it...
I see it as confidence. My wife and I are stationed in Heidelberg, Germany and I have talked alot of college football with other people and not once has anyone said that I or other fans were arrogant. In fact alot of them respect the passion that Ohio State fans have for the school. I am friends with an Alabama fan and he loves how every Saturday my world shuts down for college football.

No. The fact that I have all my teeth and they are straight works on them.

That lawsuit is much more recent than the use of the word 'THE' in The Ohio State University. The lawsuit did force us to make some changes where the word 'State' had to be added to some stuff, but the 'THE' has always been there.
As for the original question: Yes I am arrogant, but it has nothing to do with my attending The Ohio State University, or my love of their athletic teams.

former Buckeyes just having fun and showing the loyalty to their school, where it is emphasized endlessly that we are THE OSU.
|
When I went there it was drilled into us that if we use the three words "Ohio State University" then the word "The" had to be in front. Saying "Ohio State" by itself was fine. We overemphasized the word "The" more as a joke about the constant reminders we got through freshman year. |
