washington, washington 12 stories high made of radiation

after that run at the end, i thought this was an appropriate response. if i had an animation chops, i would remake this in honor of d-wash.

anybody else see mike leach on friday night lights?

sorry, the link above is kinda old, but i couldn't find the clip anywhere.

he was frickin hilarious. told the coach he needed to find his 'inner pirate' and 'wave your sword up here instead of down there'

awesome

columbus trip report

Wooderson — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 04:43:47 -0000

well, the wife and i made to columbus and back. unfortunately, i caught a cold after the game and have been sick since then.

my wife is an ohio st alumnus, but this was my first game there. trip highlights:

-overall, the game experience was great. stadium record 103,000+ fans. plus at least 100K more outside. that's a lot of people in one place!

-we only got to tailgate for a couple of hours. the wife was shopping with mom so i was stuck til they were done. i guess the parking lots open at 6am, so some friends went early to set up, but we didn't get there until about 5:30pm. i did manage to slam five 16oz beers in 2 hours to get the juices flowing. great tailgate atmosphere, everyone having fun, lots of positive energy. the few usc fans i saw were respectful and treated well by the osu fans.

-even getting in the stadium was ridiculous with that many people. 30 minutes before the game you could hardly move outside. the horseshoe is farkin' enormous. our seats were about 8 rows from the top and it is steep- i felt like a sherpa hiking up there.

-the band was amazing. the script o-h-i-o was really cool. the tuba who dotted the i was named frank costanza- seriously!

-the game itself wasn't the most exciting. lots of good defense. i really thought the bucks had a chance, but their offense was so lame, then the defense couldn't hang on. i don't think most osu fans really thought they would win, but it was kinda bizarre to hear people bitching about tresselvest after the game (how many more losses before we shit-can tressel?). different expectations i guess.

-getting out of there was a clusterf***. it took us 2 hours to get back to the car. long day

the wife and i are flying from denver to akron then driving to columbus. my first game at the horseshoe on saturday and i'm excited! hopefully the buckeyes can pull it out. if you're watching the game, we'll be the ones in red at the top of the south stands. i'm going to miss the mizzou game, save myself $30 for ppv i guess. anyway, go tigers and bucks!

i don't think i could stomach being part of the jeff boschee basketball camp, but good for them representing mizzou in enemy territory

going to a game at the horseshoe...

i may have mentioned on here that my wife is from columbus and went to ohio state. we've made a couple of trips there in the last 2 years, but haven't been to a football game yet. i was a little bummed that our trip last fall was an away weekend (we went to bww to watch the ohio st-wisconsin game, at least i was able to watch mizzou destroy nebraska on a little tv in the corner with no sound). i was kinda whiny about it, but no big deal. so for my birthday this year, her parents send me a card saying they entered the alumni ticket lottery for us to go to a game this fall. i thought, 'ok, cool', but figured it would be against youngstown st or something. we found out this week they got tickets for the usc game. u-s-frickin-c versus ohio state. needless to say i am excited about that matchup! i'm sure it will be a crazy atmosphere for that game.

How much would you pay to be an honorary coach?

I saw this article and wondered how long before Mizzou does something like this. Seems like everybody gets something positive out of it.
