Pretty sad, imo. Actually the language was much worse than this report indicates..

[Tiger2001]

:laughing:

[crazysob04]

Of course the school up north is NEVER guilty of anything like this, right?

[austinsm11]

Almost as classy as Michigan's new coach.:poke:

[warren1st]

Austin - say what you must but if UM fans went down to Value City (??) Arena and cursed Tressel, they would never get out of there alive.

You're right, they wouldn't. Well, you're right except for the fact that Tressel isn't a lying, back-stabbing, file-stealing, $4 millon robber like Rodriguez is. A little difference THERE Warren1st.

You're entitled to your opinion there CarlE. A little worried 'bout the future??

Nope. You a little worried since the thief obviously isn't getting Pryor? Now what?

[warren1st]

Nope. You a little worried since the thief obviously isn't getting Pryor? Now what?

Yeah, I've seen he signed with his favorite, Ohio St. Right!!

Don't ever count out Rich Rodriguez!!:rockon:

True. Who KNOWS what illegal stunt he'll pull to land Pryor, right?

[warren1st]

True. Who KNOWS what illegal stunt he'll pull to land Pryor, right?

Uh, please name ONE incident for which he's ever had an NCAA violation?

[SternRulz]

OMG!!! Opposing fans shouted from their seats??? Holy Crap!

Big deal.

Waaaaaaaaaah!

:sad2:

[CarlE]

Uh, please name ONE incident for which he's ever had an NCAA violation?

Stay tuned. WVU hasn't even STARTED on his snake-ass yet.

[proud to be]

Uh, please name ONE incident for which he's ever had an NCAA violation?

This reminds me of a famous quote...

Have either of you ever been convicted of a crime?

Convicted???

No... Never convicted....

Name the movie......

[proud to be]

You're entitled to your opinion there CarlE. A little worried 'bout the future??

Worried about the future?????

Weren't you the guy who was distraught over not getting Les Miles??

When did you become such a HUGE Dick Rod supporter???

Don't you think he should have expected that reaction while there were tOSU fans in the house??/ Maybe this is just another decision indicative of his poor judgement.........

:puke:

[Seeker]

No... Never convicted....

Name the movie......

Did you copy and paste that from last year??? (changing the date of course....)

Or maybe the year before.... or the year...... never mind

The odds are in your favor..... eventually you'll be right!!!!

Won't we feel salty then!!

[MUCSteelers5xSuperChamp]

I couldn't believe Ohio State fans had their nerve to do what they did. Shame on them.

The only reason Ohio State won those last four meetings is because Michigan's defense was on the field WAY TOO LONG in the second half of the ball game, which ended in frustrating losses of 37-21, 25-21, 42-39, and 14-3. And you won't win when your defense is huffing and puffing in the second half. Impressed? No freaking way! And in two of the games, Michigan should have scored at least 35 points!!!!

Our defense will not be tired again this season. Ohio State will be on the receiving end of this real soon.

You never fail to amuse me, don't you? If you were my father-in-law, you and I would be having some REAL action at the table :laughing:!

excuses, excuses. ...and i guess Ohio State had NOTHING to do with KEEPING michigan's defense on the field? ...right.

:dead:

Keep a close eye on your daughters CarlE!!!!

[austinsm11]

So warren1st, how much have you contributed towards RR's buyout?

doesn't that mean the offense of the opposing team (OHIO STATE) is doing very well, thus keeping the ball???:laughing:

[SuperBran]

see if you Ohio State fans don't get what's coming to you on 11/22/2008

another win against michigan???

[MUCSteelers5xSuperChamp]

shortbev,

If you can't get turnovers, you won't win games. And I think Ohio State turned the ball over once in all four games combined...that to me is frustrating.

You can't win when your defense is on the field too long. At least during this frustrating time, Warren1st and I haven't come down with a case of "Angry Jayne" yet. Allow me that much.

Well i guess that show you that Ohio State defense is better than Michigan. And guess what we will be better this year to so look out Michigan.

which means who played better?????????????? wasn't michigan:dance:

[dataintsmiff]

All Michigan fans need to get over the fact that in recent years they have just been outplayed, and that equated to losing many games in a row! As soon as you guys come to grips with your sloppy play, you will understand how you've been totaly dominated! Simple mathematics!

[ChronicTiger]

Give it a rest. I hate when the word classy is thrown around with sports fans. Are you people serious? Name one fan base that is classy, and if you really think what your saying is true....I have something to sell you....

You're right, Chronic Tiger. Poor behavior has become the norm in America and should be simply overlooked. I'm sorry I brought it up. My bad. Also, I apologize for being so stupid as to use the word classy in today's society. Probably not many even know what it means.

Thank you for your compliance......

I would argue that the word "classy" is a relative term.

Those fan bases that have the most amout of class, albeit a samll amount can still be called "classy" as opposed to those with a deficit in that column.

For example, compare Massillon fans to McKinley or Warren fans, and we are classy.

Then read the comments posted by a few guys in TigerTownTalk, and think otherwise---then go to CantonMcKinley.com, and vasilate yet again.

I'm picking up on your sarcasm!

You know what they say about people who live in glass houses.......

(Other than they should shower in the basement!)

Do you really think if the tables were turned, that scUM fans would have reacted any differently??? Are you that naive??? I have a ton of respect for you and your ties to the the program, but come on man..... you're no different, this is nothing more than your opportunity to take a shot at the Buckeyes, and you know it.

If it were Northwestern making the comments..... nobody would care.

[warren1st]

I'm picking up on your sarcasm!



Do you really think if the tables were turned, that scUM fans would have reacted any differently???

Yes, they already have. Remember when Jim Tressel addressed the crowd at halftime of the Ohio State-Michigan game right after being named head coach? Very similar to RR talking to the fans and introducing his wife and two kids.

I'm sure there were some UM fans at the game but you saw no disrespect by them to JT.

Btw, I have many ties to OSU, really like their teams, know Tress a little, love the campus, band, etc. but so many of their fans are.................

So, what say you?

What say I???

I say this...

I think you assume way too much, and try to pass it off as fact to defend your obviously partial opinion. There is no way you are going to sit here, (or there), and tell me that UM fans are classy, and OSU fans are not. That is beneath you, and in fact, surprises me. You have done a pretty good job of representing yourself in the face of some good natured ribbing on here, and I commend you for that.BUT... (there's always a but!) This smacks of nit picking, and is a little trivial, if you ask me. Oh well..... if hating Meatchicken, and making fun of them at every opportunity makes me classless....... Color me guilty!!! Maybe the reason scUM fans have been silent is the FACT that they haven't had anything to crow about for quite some time!!!!!! (Don't mistake embarassment for class!)

I stand by my original comment. This is nothing more than an opportunity for you to take a shot at tOSU, and disguise it with a, "Many of their fans are .........." comment. Listen...... I've been to the big house, and I've been to the SHOE. There are A#$holes in Ann Arbor, and there are A^&holes in C-Bus... no one has the market cornered. Your constant ravings is making you look a little ridiculous....

[warren1st]

First, I am NOT taking a shot at OSU.

Second, if you and others condone poor behavior, that's your problem; not mine.

Third, yes, ALL Ohio State fans are simply the best in ALL of football. I was wrong again. We scUM (yes, I don't appreciate that term either) fans are just that, scum.

[crazysob04]

when i went to the osu-michigan game this year up in ann arbor i was verbally abused and had things thrown at me because i was wearing my ohio state gear. this type of behavior happens everywhere as sad as it is. get off your high horse.

You're not taking a shot at OSU... hmmm.. you can read right?? Are you capable of objectivity?? Go back, read your comments, and get back to me......

Furthermore......

You do realize that Buckeye fans are not SUPPOSED to like Michigan right??? I mean, I would assume, (even though I know the danger of that), that you are aware that, at one time, this was a great rivalry, (when UM used to win once in a while), and it may be again some day?? You do remember Woodrow Hayes, right??? Couldn't even bring himself to say the name of that school up north, (tsun, from now on instead of scUM), and that there is this mandate of sorts from the legion of his followers that we perpetuate that, right?? I mean, youre not NEW to this whole thing are you???

(See, I can do sarcasm too!!!)

Seriously.... what do you expect from OSU fans?? Michigan SUCKS.... there I said it!! If that makes me classless, so be it!!!! I don't know what you want us to do?? Go ahead and keep your head in the sand, and think OSU is the Evil Empire, and their fans are all A-Holes. I, for one, don't understand how anyone can be a "fan" of both schools, or how ANYONE from Ohio would WANT to be a fan of tsun, (see how I did that?), for that matter. As far as I'm concerned, Ohio Meatchicken fans (I hope that one doesn't offend your delicate nature too much) are all frontrunners, and should be expelled form the state immediately!!!!!! I know Bo would never have understood how one could be a fan of both teams....... Respect yes............. fan No way in Hell!!!!

Poor behavior ..... Oh well, you can continue to play the "Holier than Thou" card from your lofty perch atop the UM bandwagon..... Take a look around you Warren...... those people that you consider fans of tsun, are no different than the scarlet and grey faithful in C-Bus. And those who think they are might want to take a look in the mirror next November on Game day....

Let me guess......... youre a Steeler fan too.... right???

[warren1st]

Why do I like Michigan. Well, let's see. My dad, who started at OSU, graduated from UM. Now, don't most normal kids root for the school their dad attended and he rooted for? Second, I was accepted for my MBA there. Third, I recruited for Bo and Gary Moeller in the Warren/Youngstown area for 20 years.

When Michigan used to win once in a while? How soon you forget that a few short years ago, OSU was 2-10-1 against the Wolverines. And, I think with RR wins will balance out.

Let me also tell you something about Bo. Unlike WWH, he had a tremendous amount of respect (which is the adjective I should have used @ OSU's sports teams) for Ohio State. After all, he received his Master's there and had two coaching stints. I believe you will find he gave the eulogy at Hayes' funeral.

Guess what? I'm a Browns fan and an Indians fan. I was named after Bob Feller.

Yes, my skin is thin but I just think if thinks were reversed, some UM fans would have gotten their arses beaten to a pulp in Columbus.

Lofty perch? You don't know me at all.

Let's put this to bed, OK?

No problem...... I hope you realize that most of what I said was sarcastic, and tongue in cheek..... I am an OSU fan..... you are a UM fan........ you know, cats and dogs stuff!

I do know who you are, and I do know your history. My sister is married to a Schembechler, and I go round and around with them all the time as well.

I just get a little aggravated when other fans refuse to admit that they also have idiot fans, and point at a FEW rowdy OSU fans and make generalizations, that gets my blood boiling. The OSU fans that I watch games with are about class, win or lose, (but we do hate UM!), and feel lucky to be a part of the greatest rivalry in College Football, if not all College Sports, (Duke /Carolina not withstanding!)

As far as forgetting 2-10-1, how could I??? Knute Cooper was the best recruiter, but was a horrible BIG game coach IMO.... (Kinda like Shepas!... sorry Dawg and TC, I couldn't help myself!!)

Don't kid yourself about WWH.. you KNOW that he respected Bo, and UM.....
Otherwise, beating them wouldn't have meant nearly as much to him as it did... It was what he lived for....

[CarlE]

For example, compare Massillon fans to McKinley or Warren fans, and we are classy.



You're kidding, right?

[warren1st]

Let me make one final post.

First, I KNOW there are idiot Michigan fans. I defend Jim Tressel all the time on Michigan boards and, thus, take a lot of grief from them. Imo, Tress is the best coach in America.

Second, I firmly think this is the greatest rivalry in all of sports!! As much as I hate to admit it, I deep down greatly admired Woody. He was a poor loser but a great coach, a great historian and, mostly, a great person. Most who really knew him loved him.

Last, I know this is a board read mostly by OSU fans. I reacted in somewhat of a 'knee jerk" reaction as I have felt that RR, while bringing some of his problems on himself, deserved better treatment from guests in "our house."

As Tiger Carl would say, "Anyhoo", GO BLUE!!

[ChronicTiger]
