This is pretty funny. I like The M Zone, despite the fact that those guys play for the other team *nudge nudge, wink wink.* It's a funny site, and at least their OSU bashing is usually original and clever.
For those who didn't read the M Zone Collegiate Wonderlic Test, it's here:
http://michiganzone.blogspot.com/200...rlic-test.html
The OSU joke, shamelessly stolen from that page, is:
If the Ohio State tailback gets $42,000 from a Buckeye booster but the Escalade he wants is $57,000, he should:
a) Buy a different SUV
b) Take a job he doesn't have to show up for from another booster to cover the difference
c) Ask Maurice Clarett to borrow one for him
d) Transfer to an SEC school with more generous boosters
There's another throw-away joke about Maurice Clarett & Marcus Vick, but questions 5 & 9, the Tennessee and Michigan jokes, are the best.
I won't copy & paste the whole test because I wouldn't want Yost to blog about it.

I heard the Wonderlic bit live. He never claimed to have made it up. He just read it. I saw it posted in 3 different places and none of them were that stupid blog site. I knew he didn't make it up when I heard it, but I didn't care because he didn't say "Here's something I just made up...."
PS - Cowherd kicks ass

I always wondered what happened to Fielding Yost... I figured he died, but I'm shockingly happy to hear he's doing fine, bloggin away.

sometimes, yes. Other times, he just throws out conflicting arguments... sometimes to bait, sometimes because he is foolish (ie when he explained that rookie QBs fail 99% of the time in their first year... so the Cardinals (whose coach must produce this year or get canned) could not draft VY, yet could draft cutler (I guess he's in the top 1% of rookies).

I did a search for this, but this was the closest thing I found. Anyway, Colin Cowherd was funny the other day. He was talking about how people should watch sports for the entertainment, not for the emotions of it. People were calling up with silly stuff to say about it, and then a guy called up who said he was a Michigan football fan. He said that Michigan hasn't been very good lately, so he obviously doesn't watch for the emotions. And Colin Cowherd said something along the lines of, "And they aren't very entertaining, either," and he didn't give the guy a chance to say anything back, he just went to break, or to the next caller, or wherever it is that radio call-in show hosts go when they hang up on a caller.
