Silver Linings

[cincibuck]

Ok, I spent the morning [censored]ing and moaning. Now can we come up with a list of Silver Linings?

1) We lost to Florida, not Notre Dame.

2) We lost to a Florida team coached by Urban Meyer and not Steve Spurrier.

3) VLloyd got his ass beat too, thus no more "rematch" bull [censored].

4) Troy, not the Mighty Quinn, won the Heisman.

5) Teddy looked incredible on that kick off.

6) We're outright Big 10 Champions.

That's a start... feel free to add to lthe list.

Wisconsin and Penn State saved the big 10 slightly....in the bowls. otherwise, we would've inflicted a big 10 stereotype that would've lasted for years.

oh yeah...back to silver linings...Tressel is now still under contract. But I think someone already stated that.

1. Hearing Michigan fans gloat about someone else beating us.

2. JT's contract IS STILL IN TACT!

Let me also add:

-the horseshoe gets field turf now for next year.

[Taosman]

1.We still have one of the best coaching staffs in the country.

2. Next BCS game we'll probably be the underdog!

3. We have great talent at QB waiting in the wings!

We played better than 12 ACC teams, 10 Big Ten teams, 16 Big east teams, 12 Big Twelve teams, 10 Pac Ten teams, and 11 SEC teams last night.

-At least we didn't have to watch those goddamn maize and blue helmets bouncing in celebration...either of a national title (thanks again Troy) or winning the Rose Bowl either.

-Mike Hart will have to continue to invent ways that the team with less points was not only better, but actually won. I believe he will hire xrayrandy on retainer, and therefore he will not have time to post here again.

-Our coach had no interest in Alabama

-No one jobbed us...not refs, or replay booth dudes, or anyone...we just lost.

-We didn't, nor do I anticipate we will, ever play in a bowl game either on blue carpet, nor against Nevada (nothing against the Wolfpack).

-We didn't get beat by the same coach with 2 different teams like Western Michigan did

-We didn't have to play in Canada, eh

-Since 1992, we have big bowl wins, smaller bowl wins, NC game wins...and Notre Dame has no bowl wins...still

-We aren't relegated to playing directional schools in bowl games

-Losing the last game of the year is better than not playing in it

-We have Jim Tressel, so it will be rinse, lather, repeat, strap on the sweatervest and get back after it...and we will be back again soon.

We did add another National Championship to our record.

Pizza still tastes like pizza. That one really helps.

Some of our outstanding Juniors flirting with the NFL may have been swayed into giving it another go in Scarlet and Gray.

That would be a great help. Hope your right.

This one is a no doubter....and I found out that my bed, is still a bed last night.

--Some of the bandwagon chumps will now find other interests

--The entire program will refocus with a insatiable hunger.

--The entire fanbase has the air of invincibility removed and we can now get back to the reality of competitive top-tier sports.

Good thing Charlie Weiss isn't our coach - this could well be his undoing.
