OH-IO at non-buckeyes games

Can someone explain to me why I have to hear some drunk moron in jean shorts and a sleeveless t shirt yelling this at every indians/cavs/browns game?

I understand the fact that OSU football is the only team around here who does not continually let down cleveland fans. However, I am pretty sure that yelling "OH-IO" at indians games does not give support to the players on the field. And looking at the browns roster, none of the players attended TOSU, so why do people continue to do this? In the pre-Tressel era you would never hear this at sporting events. However, in the past few years, I cannot remember the last time I was at a sporting event in Cleveland where some jibroni with 8 stacked empty beer cups starting this deplorable chant. Same concept can be applied to playing hang on sloopy over the PA system. One exception to my distate is when the buckeyes band plays one game a year at browns stadium.

Another thing about Ohio State fans (and by the way I am an ohio state fan)..... Why do you wear jerseys to non-ohio state sporting events? I look at these people and wonder who let them out. Why on earth would you wear a scarlett #7 jersey to a tribe, cavs or browns games? It is completely obnoxious and part of the reason why ohio state was listed as one of the most hated college football teams. Squealers and red sox fans are the kings and queens of rocking their teams gear to a sporting event that has nothing to do with that team. In light of this, it disheartens me to see buckeye fans stooping to their level. Wearing a baseball cap to a game does not bother me, or even a t shirt. However, a jersey is not normal attire for anything, and wearing one means you went out of your way to be a d-bag.
