  1. High School Texas High School Stadium Pictures

    This is one of the great high school stadiums anywhere. Tanks Memorial Stadium, Ironton, Ohio 45638
  2. Song Played at Games

    It's too bad that we need hells bells to get people excited at a Buckeyes game. We Americans are truly becoming pitiful creatures. Maybe in a few more years people won't get jacked up unless they see a beheading before the game.
  3. Buckeyes from your hometown/HS

    From Ironton (area)... Jerry Fields, LB, Coal Grove. Drafted by the New York Titans of the AFL in 1961. Kenny Fritz, OL, Ironton. First team All American, 1979. Drafted by the Steelers. Walt Delong, OL, Ironton. Highly touted. Left Ohio State after about one quarter. Jermon Jackson...
  4. Recruiting Issues (Merged)

    I believe that the APR will have the effect of causing high school athletes to actually put forth an effort in high school. Higher standards are not about excluding students of lower academic ability, they are about prodding young people to live up to their potential. And, most successful...
  5. Florida State Seminoles (official thread)

    Well, southern institutions like the State of Florida and Florida State University don't hold themselves out as honorable and law abiding, so people just shrug and move on when they cheat. It's not surprising.

    Well, that oughta convince some of you that there is more to Tressel than he sometimes lets on.
  7. Stand v. Sit @ Game

    No one's ever asked me to sit down, either. And I prefer to stand. I stand as much as the circumstances will allow me. In big games, like Michigan, I stand most of the game. When the rows in front of me start to stand up, so do I. And then the people behind me have to stand up. It's part...
  8. More New Nike Uni's

    Yeah, since '67.
  9. More New Nike Uni's

    That style of uniform wouldn't have to look very different than the current uniforms, IF they would just leave out the constrasting piping on the jerseys and the space age stripes on the pants. Ohio State's current uniforms are a far cry from those of the past, as far as materials. The...
  10. Stand v. Sit @ Game

    Perfect, Artillary. That's a great way to explain it. Misanthrope, I also share your opinions. I usually leave Buckeye games hoarse and exhausted. I cheer as hard as I can. I stand up, I yell, I do it all. But I'm also aware of the people around me. If the people in front of me...
  11. Stand v. Sit @ Game

    Right. That's what I'm talking about. People not being so self-absorbed that they totally ignore hundreds of other people. When one person stands up, that causes the person behind him to stand up, and so forth, all the way to the top of the section. Many games, I find myself sitting...
  12. Stand v. Sit @ Game

    Milli, It's probably been a while since you've been to the horseshoe, living in Hawai'i and all. But, they have a little talked-about, quaint custom at Ohio State games, called "courtesy". It basically means that you can enjoy yourself and cheer your butt off, but you also have to consider...
  13. Inagural BP golf outing, vbet (merged)

    Where will people stay overnight? I would love to come if I knew I wouldn't have to drive. :cheers:
  14. ESPN hires ombudsman

    That's probably as close to an apology that Ohio State fans will ever get. And it proves that ESPN considers themselves journalists and not just entertaineers. So that excuse is gone.
  15. A New Take On THE Rivalry

    I agree with you 100% Oiler, but not many more will. Seems that the blind hatred of most Ohio State people toward Michigan started when they were 9 and never matured beyond that. Ohio State and Michigan football are yin and yang. One does not exist without the other. They are two sides of a...
