2020 ttun Shenanigans, Arguments, and Surrender Cobras (Confirmed COWARDS!)

I could rebut the absurdity of his points with factual data and historical points, but I won't. That would mean engaging in an intellectual argument with a special needs person, and my father taught me to never be a bully.

count yourself among the spoiled fortunate. some of us had to walk through that hell to fully appreciate the Nirvana we enjoy today. I’ll never go back to that. ever.

Couldn't have said it better! Even with every win over scUM I still feel tormented by the Cooper years. Watching those asshats destroy some legendary OSU teams and make OSU legends embarrassed was the worst feeling in the world. Not to mention its coming from the most smug fanbase who can only hang their hat on 1 NC in an extremely long time. I'd be fine with beating them into a pulp for the foreseeable future

I'm too young to remember the Cooper years, so I'd take the guaranteed title in a heartbeat ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The 2002 season is my first solid memory of OSU football (I know I watched a lot of games growing up because my family are all fans, but I don't remember any of them like I remember the '02 championship game), and I'd still rather beat those fucks up north into a pulp than lose. Yeah, it would still be nice winning a championship if we managed to get in despite losing to those fucks (last game of the year, you can't really lose that and still get in unless you're Bama), but it wouldn't really be mission accomplished.

If they were "eager" they would have grabbed the talent developed by Harbaugh before the 7th round. I think the word this dingledick is looking for is "willing".

Example:
I am eager to bang Jessica Alba. Failing that, I am willing to bang damn near anything come closing time.

She says, "Hi!".

I bolded the text because it makes me laugh. The quarterback who hopes to be the starter is working with Devin Gardner.

If you don't remember who Devin Gardner was, fast-forward to about 2:50 in this video:

But his mechanics, well that was a whole 'nother level!

About that 11W poll:

Bless you, never having to feel the inevitable dick kick that came during the last regular season game (and often followed by another a few weeks later in the bowl). It got to the point where the loss was just expected, but it still hurt every fucking time.

Not to minimize anyone's fandom, but I truly believe the newer generation will never understand the hatred us survivors of the Cooper years will feel for tsun. Too many times we had the better team only to lose to a fucking 3 or 4 loss, otherwise mediocre, team up north. It was awful. It was embarrassing. It was infuriating. By 2000, I had lost some of my passion for tOSU football. I still followed, still watched, but i was becoming somewhat numb.

I was stationed in at RAF Lakenheath in the UK when Tressel was hired. Being from NE Ohio, I was well aware of how good a coach he was. I was over the moon. I told anybody who would listen JT would win a NC at Ohio State by year 4. It took him 2. I can't explain the relief and exhilaration of Nov 24, 2001.

As bad as the Cooper years were, I cannot fathom losing 17 of 19. But I'm glad it's them. Couldn't happen to a smugger, more deserving fanbase. Never take the foot off the throttle. Fuck 'em raw.

And to expound on the above, one thing that separates tOSU fans from the DFBIA...we knew Cooper sucked and we weren't beating them. We didn't try to convince ourselves every year that it was "our year." We knew we were losing. We knew we had a bad coach. Those dumb fucks have spent almost two decades and three coaches believing or trying to convince themselves otherwise.

My torment goes back even further. I was at the ‘69 Purdue game. My first time attending a game. We won big. It snowed. I was a 10-year-old in heaven. The next week, 24-12. Jim Mandich carried off the field. My hero, Jim Otis, in tears. I didn’t understand the rivalry. Since that day, I’ve hated everything scum. My five kids, too young to understand the pain of the Cooper years, know only success. They can’t understand why I get nauseous before the game. So every year during the week of the game, they are REQUIRED to watch, with me, the HBO feature on the rivalry. They roll their eyes as I curse Mandich. They know only success, and I pray that they only know that success. But lest they, or we, ever forget . . . .

My first time watching The Game - I mean REALLY watching - was 1986. 10 years old in the stadium. Matt Frantz missed a would-be-go-ahead field goal with pretty much no time left. I remember getting into an argument with a friend at school because he blamed Frantz for the miss. It was a 45-yard field goal. Ugh. I'd watched games before that, but 1986 was really my first season of WATCHING.
Of course, 1987 was a tough season, but at least it turned into a win at the end.
1988 was a continuation of the train wreck that nearly ended with a win.
By 1992, Ohio State was back to what I considered "status quo", except they couldn't beat Michigan.
1994 finally was a win - maybe this will all get fixed.
1995 - nope
1996 - nope
1997 - nope
1998 - yay!
1999 - ugh.
2000 - this sucks

2001 is one of my all-time favorite games. The 1990's were finally done.

I like your style, Prayer. I'm going to re-watch that 1986 game, and maybe the 1995 and 1996 games every year the week before Thanksgiving. Never forget.

Now I'm talking directly to you, Urban Meyer: You had the chance to go for 70. You could have scored that last touchdown and gone for 2. You could have given the classic "because I couldn't go for 3" answer. I wouldn't have cared if you missed and the Bucks only scored 68. Of course, it would have been better if we got to 70. EFF YOU URBAN MEYER!! Okay - I'm done. I won't mention it, anymore. Are we cool?

10 years old in the stadium.

I was 10 for "on of our greatest wins ever" in 1992. Follow with the no-show in Ann Arbor in 1993 and pick up with Zurps timeline above.

My five kids, too young to understand the pain of the Cooper years, know only success. They can’t understand why I get nauseous before the game. So every year during the week of the game, they are REQUIRED to watch, with me, the HBO feature on the rivalry. They roll their eyes as I curse Mandich. They know only success, and I pray that they only know that success. But lest they, or we, ever forget . . . .

Good advice here. My kids are still too young to really get it (both under 4), but they both know TTUN smells like dirty diapers, so I figure they're mostly on the right path.

How many days?

How many days since Michigan has beaten Ohio State?

3086 days.

NOT NEARLY ENOUGH.

 

[Buckeyeskickbuttocks]

An infinite amount of days isn't nearly enough.

Cocksuckers.

 

[Buckeyeskickbuttocks]

and I don't mean the good kind.
