Opponent: First, let’s get this out of there right away: there’s no chance whatsoever that the Penguins will come into Columbus and shock Ohio State. It just won’t happen. It’s darn near [...]

Irizarry’s other ‘uniform’

I’m sure none of our morally sound readers ever gamble, but Jason and I thought it would be fun to take a peek at the week’s biggest games and offer our picks against the spread. We’ll track our results as the season goes on to see which of us would’ve been homeless first [...]

Not exactly GWAR

If you have to hear bad news, it’s better to hear it from family. That’s why it’s our duty to report the fact that Buckeye coach Jim Tressel is a Celine Dion fan. Yep, you heard that correct. We figured it should come from us instead of those snarky fools [...]

Until then, [...]

Missed me!

Evidently - and I know this will come as a shock, but Michigan running back and gracious loser Mike Hart has the biggest mouth on his team. After every play, he’s talking trash. Hart explains the talking:

“I just talk a lot. I don’t know why. It’s how I’ve been since I [...]

A captain in Ohio, but can she tackle?
