here. Justy wanted to point out how an opinion of a guy can change almost 180° when he goes from one team to another (i.e. from a team you like to one you don't or vice versa).

People's opinion of a player and/or coach is definitely effected by what team is is on: I've always been a New York Giant fan. In the early 60s the Giants had a defensive back named Erich Barnes. Back then all the NFL games weren't televised; you usually just had to listen to the local team (i.e. the Browns) on the radio. When the Giants played the Browns, the Brown's announcers referred to him as the "dirtiest player" in the NFL. In 1964 the Giants traded him to the Browns and low and behold the same announcers were now referring to him as the "most aggressive player" in the NFL.:lol:
Ah yes, dirty Erich. And Jim Katkavich, who played his college football at Dayton and then went to the Giants... like guys from Ohio who decide to play for Michigan.

A TRADITION UNLIKE ANY OTHER: OHIO STATE PLAYERS RECEIVE GOLD PANTS TRINKETS FOR DEMOLISHING MICHIGAN 42-13

69745_h.jpg


Ohio State's football team rolled into Michigan Stadium on Nov. 28 last year, and when they left the Big House was nothing more than a figurative pile of ashes as the scoreboard read, "Ohio State: 42; Michigan: 13."

It was Urban Meyer's fourth win in as many swings at Michigan, and to the victors go the spoils. Today, the Gold Pants Club passed out the trinkets awarded to players for beating that team up north.

2015: JALIN MARSHALL BEATS JEREMY CLARK FOR 25-YARD TOUCHDOWN GRAB

Ohio State led just 14-10 at halftime in the 2015 edition of The Game. Looking for a spark to start the third quarter to create some separation and quiet the Big House crowd, the Buckeyes did just that.

After Ezekiel Elliott gashed the Wolverines with gains of 7, 21, 15 and 9 yards helping the Buckeyes drive to the Michigan 25 yard line, Urban Meyer and company figured Michigan would be ripe for a pass over the top.

On 1st-and-10, J.T. Barrett play faked to Elliott, dropped back and lobbed a throw toward Jalin Marshall on a post route.

Playing through defensive holding and pass interference, Marshall showed excellent concentration and hands, fighting off Michigan cornerback Jeremy Clark for a 25-yard touchdown giving Ohio State a decisive 21-10 lead.

Marshall's catch capped an 8-play, 82-yard drive – one of five OSU scoring drives of 75 or more yards on the afternoon.

The grab jump-started what became a 28-3 run in the second half as Ohio State exited Michigan Stadium with a 42-13 victory.
