Here is their wedding...

If you ask me, that DSL is a lucky man!

I think?

[Dr. Strangelove]

So....Michigan lost to this Rutgers team?

Jaysus, Mary, and Joseph...I'm going to be pissed if we somehow lose on Nov. 29

[Dr. Strangelove]

Historical notes:

* First time in history Ohio State has scored 50+ points in 4 straight games

* We've won 18 straight regular season Big10 games. The record is 20 (held by us). In fact 5 of the top 6 streaks are held by us. If we beat Sparty in two week that would set a new record.

* This was Rutgers' worst loss in the past 9 years.

DSL, with Ruby Sue riding shotgun, no one is gonna try to pinch your bag of pork rinds.

And I bet less Talent, there's not a hilljack north of the Smokys that would dare try to "mow your lawn" if you know what I mean?

[lineygoblue]

You won't lose on Nov 29. You should be more concerned about Nov 8.

Nobody in Michigan will be watching on Nov 29 anyway.

Most Michigan fans will be tuning out until D. Brandon and B. Hoke are fired.

I'd say the new hires will be more interesting than any of the remaining football games.

[iam416]

I'm quite concerned about the 8th. I feel better about it each time I see JTB play, though. He's not bad. For a freshman playing behind an inexperienced OL.

[lineygoblue]

Michigan didn't play today, and I don't think anyone noticed, or missed it.

[iam416]

I missed it. It's always good for the soul to watch that clownshow. Well, my soul.

In other news, I'm getting so excited for 2015! Wow! This team is SO young. It's conceivable that OSU could return TWO B10 offensive players of the year and ONE defensive player of the year. Barrett certainly has a credible shot the the turn, though one would think Gordon probably has the edge. Bosa is the best defensive player in the B10, IMO. Whether that means anything come awards time, I dunno.

But, man, watching McMillan, Bell, Apple, Marshall, Barrett, Wilson, Bosa, Lee, the entire interior OL -- all so young. Woooot!

Ummmm, yes, well, I mean, it's very difficult to win with youth and inexperience. Very, very difficult. Or something.

[lineygoblue]

About the only thing that will get me excited about Michigan football again, is if there is a news conference at Schembechler Hall, where Jim Harbaugh is introduced as Michigan's head football coach.

I'll still be a fan of the Wolverines, but I can't get very excited about it anymore.

[iam416]

The first step is getting ride of the cancer, Liney. That should be good enough for mild interest and guarded optimism no matter who they hire.

OSU scored big with a D-1AA coach. Even if it's not a Harbaugh, M can still hire someone who, well, actually knows how to f'n coach.

[iam416]

That's a little off. the "Even Richer Republicans" needs to be a mile or so north. As it stands, that's actually "working class" Upper Arlington or "ranchville".

I think my house just ekes in on the northernmost edge. Strangelove's residence is not shown, though "white trash"/"might as well be detroit" probably works for him!

[hack]

I always pictured you a mall rat.

[iam416]

NO! Though, one of the best sushi places you'll ever eat at is actually in a strip mall. Anywho, OSU travels to Happy Valley this week. Ohio State scored more points in the first half against Rutgers than Penn State has scored in 3 B10 conference games. The Penn State OL is really really really not good. The Ohio State DL tends toward good. Ohio State has scored 50+ in four straight games with gads of the dreaded "youth and inexperience" on offense. OSU ran PSU 63-14 last year in a game that wasn't really that close. I doubt OSU drops 50 at Happy Valley, but I also doubt they'll need more than, say, 24.
