With just over 13 minutes left in the 4th quarter of the Big Game...

...it now appears that Michigan in fact did NOT make it past Toledo.

Sad, sickly, little Wolverines. Clearly, there's no Adamantine in these pups.

Current score: Michigan 7, Ohio State 42.

O H!!!! I O!!!!

Next rivalry game: Michigan State at Penn State. We (ouch) want (ouf) the Michigan (ugh) State (ow) Spartans to win so the Buckeyes might possibly go to the Rose Bowl. It is a yucky feeling to cheer for a Michigan team. ANY Michigan team. Almost like wanting Pol Pot to win the lottery, and I'd *never* want that. (Fortunately, he's dead now, so I only have to wish him a nasty place in hell.)

Not the greatest season in Ohio State football history, nor the worst, but still: we beat Michigan!! It's the most important game of the year, and as of this game, the Michigan seniors have never had a chance to beat a Buckeye. >grin<

Beating Michigan is always what matters most.

 

Today's Ohio State game against the Wolverines has been cancelled...

Michigan can't get past Toledo!!!

(cue rim shot.)(or not...)

 

It's a conspiracy.

Another season down the tubes before it even starts, thanks to the SI curse. When will the Bucks get another championship?!?? Why does The Universe *taunt* us so??!?

Fortifications

This game is SO scary.

The big glass is 32 oz. of Great Lakes Brewing Co. Dortmunder. The smaller, fuller glass was just delivered, and has a remarkably delicious stout called a 'milk stout' that just about a-l-m-o-s-t makes up for how the game is going by how orgasmically good this beer is. Seriously. This is good beer. And this game is a complete bunmmer.

BCS MADNESS-GOT BRUTUS??!

It's GAMETIME. We dine in a veritable OCEAN of Scarlet And Gray. When I say, "O H!", you say, "I O!"! YOU know what I'm saying! GO BUCKS!!!

Pumpkin Day

Pumpkin day at the farm! Every year Rick's Aunt Louise and Uncle Bill hit the produce auction and get LOADS of pumpkins. The whole extended family, sometimes friends too, descend upon the farm for a day of autumn fun. Today we carved pumpkins, ate lots of food, caught up on family news, told lots of stories, some took a hayride, we gazed at the stars, dogs (there were many!) gambolled, and of course, ate MORE! Then, coming home from the farm in Holmes County, we encountered returning Ohio State fans. So odd, that late on a Saturday night especially, to have such heavy traffic! At least they were happy: the Buckeyes remain undefeated. Sadly, our Indians go to game 7, having fallen with a resounding crash to tie the series with Boston. *sigh* One game of 2 for the day isn't bad, the Tribe has one last shot at the pennant, and WE sure had fun!
