When You’re Feeling Blue, Turn to Blue
Nelson Muntz just assplodedSo, we’re still smarting from that Friday night heartbreak. Wondering how the rebound numbers could be true and why Ronald Moore wasn’t bear-hugged as soon as he caught the ball with time ticking away in overtime.
And then the Buckeye wrestling team fell just short1 in its bid to knock off Iowa for the national championship Saturday night, constituting yet another runner-up finish for an athletic department that seems to be collecting way too many of those over the course of the past three years.
So what do you do when life hands you athletic lemons? You turn to your neighbor up north and their hillbilly coach. The image above represents a post to Twitter (or, as the hipsters call it, a Tweet) submitted by Rodriguez after the Wolverines basketball team had just finished knocking off 7th-seeded Clemson in the opening round of the NCAA tournament.
“Rich is just watched a great win…”
Spoken just like Bo or Lloyd would have.
Now, I realize that these are 140 characters or less and often sent via mobile devices, but if Pete Carroll can practice proper grammar, then surely a Michigan man must be able to do the same, right?
1 Tom Ryan has the program going in the right direction and if he pulls a Tressel and locks down the talent in the state of Ohio, it’s over.
Now, I’m no Twitter expert, but on Facebook, when updating your ’status,’ it automatically puts ‘is’ after your name. I’m thinking that Twitter is the same way, and if so, I see Dick Rod’s ‘tweet’ as an honest mistake.
He’s still a douchebag, though.
Actually, neither Twitter nor Facebook automatically add the “is.”
i don’t know about twitter, but facebook still does, it’s just that you can delete it. Still there automatically though
Facebook *did* add the is until the last week or two. You could delete it, but if you just started typing, the “is” would be there.
you’re right, the new “what’s on your mind” doesn’t add the “is” automatically anymore. my bad
ha, sorry, didn’t mean to correct you on such a minor point, somehow I overlooked your comment before I responded
Rodriguez is an honest mistake.
LOL you mean his Daddy’s mistake by not using a condom!
I don’t think honest and mistake belong in the same sentence when talking about RichRod. I like to think he is just a hillbilly and this is how he talks, it is much funnier.
no they fixed that…the “is” is gone… so….buckeyebrowny is “rich rod is still a paint huffing, thong wearing finger in his hoo-ha kinda douche bag”
oh..and fact…his wife makes me want to chop off my own meat and potatoes and put them in the nearest good will food drive box…fact
everyone does this on social networking sites such as twitter and facebook. Its not really grammatically correct, but everyone does it. Its not that big of a deal.
” Its not that big of a deal.”
Actually, buckeyesspeak, it is a big deal on 11W when we can mock RichRod. Otherwise, I’d agree with you.
Agreed, and I hold DickRod to even lower standards than all other people.
Wow this is breaking news. We already knew he was a douche. He is a perfect fit for Michigan.
watchin some of the penn state game on the big 10 network before the fumble…
all i can say is Thaddeus Maximus is going to be a monster next year
And how Bryant Browning was ABUSED physically in that game.
In The Red Zone
Ohio State Buckeyes
Scored TDs 48% of the time (103 in the NCAA)
This game shows every Ohio State weakness…which hopefully can be addressed this off season.
It think you’ll see pryor line up at wideout inside the redzone. He can’t be stopped.
Do we have any RB’s that can play QB? that’d be sweet to use a wildcat kinda formation in the redzone, with pryor as a wideout
He is the Matador for a reason
Rich Rod and Michigan are going to be interesting this year on the field and in recruiting. They should be better next year, meaning they should get to a bowl game, but I don’t see them turning heads nationally. They could easily drop the first two games to a good Western Michigan team and Notre Dame then follow up those two losses with a loss to MSU and their record being 2-3 in the first five weeks and finishing the season possibly 6-6.
I can’t see Rich Rod not entering the ‘10…The Michigan Alum wont sit back and watch OSU get stronger and Stronger and distance ourselves from the rest of the Big 10, (Losing 7 of the last 8 to OSU including the last 5 – and with the team we are putting out next year and the years to come, I can’t see that record getting any better in the near future.) while Rich Rod wins 9 games over a 2 year period…..
I don’t know if recruiting is going to get better, no question Rich Rod did a good job last year with recruiting while going 3-9, but I think I could recruit well at Michigan given that the program recruits itself. I don’t know about this year though, a lot of Michigan fans are going to say they are off to a great start, but they really aren’t. Yes Gardner is a great athlete, but they have WAY too many needs to fill to take 4 WRs this early – unless Rich and Co. think they can convert a bunch of 5′11 175 pound WRs into Linebackers…????
** I can’t see Rich Rod not entering the ‘10 season on the hot seat…
What is up with Siena? 63-59 with 7:20 2nd half.
can someone please explain what that “Kern by 11w” thingy is on the right side of the main page?
Nik, we’re just looking at some things to keep the off-season fun and 8tracks seemed like a good way to inject our personality into the site.
Nothing big planned yet, just feeling it out, mostly.
ah, ok. wasn’t sure if it was some stuff some members made or what. I guess I’m just a bit too young for eight-tracks, so i didn’t quite get it ;-)
Muxtape.com kind of served the same purpose (with better features), but the labels shut it down. One mix that’s getting 8tracks a lot of pub is this one:

Evidently Rap + Zelda has strong resonance on the web. :)
He better win 10 and compete for B10 title in his 4th season, or Les Miles will be the new coach in 2012.
There was no way that this basketball team was ever going to win the title, but another runner-up in another sport (wrestling)? I know how jacked everyone was when we won Fencing last year, but when is this drought ever going to end? Ugh. Do we really need to wait another 30 years?
Simply put….NO
Very ironic for buckeye fans to criticize someone for their sentence structure, especially someone at Michigan. Don’t you geniuses have something better to do than obsess over every, single, last detail in Ann Arbor? I guarantee you that no one up there is paying an inch of attention to your duplicitous football coach or team full of criminals…
That is because they are so engrossed in depression over the 3-9 season they just had. Kudos by the way on that achievment. Way to shoot for the stars. I think I’m gonna learn how to say 7 out of the last 8 in a few different languages, that way all you ‘educated’ scUM fucks can understand……please, for the sake of the rivalry, GET SOME TALENT UP THERE!
i know there is a popular delusion in ann arbor about the school to the contrary but…you do realize that michigan is a state school too, right? every tom, dick, and harry from lower middle class suburban detroit with an ACT above 21 or SAT above 1400 gets in. are you tom, dick, or harry?
also re criminals…um, we had Mo Clarett. you had an entire corrupt PROGRAM:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Michigan_basketball_scandal
it will be better for your state if you start assessing reality based on…um, well reality. should help with the unemployment numbers.
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! (think middle school lunch room when somebody drops their tray LOL)
hahaha I love the good old reliable wikipedia source. Is Wikipedia considered a scholarly article at OSU? Haha don’t get me wrong everything on that page was probably true, but I just still found it comical.
scholarly article? wtf are you talking about…
are comments to a random little read blog considered academic papers at michigan?
There have been over 30 player arrests since Tressel brought his squeaky clean program to Columbus, leaving scandal behind in Youngstown. Which Michigan players served time after the basketball scandal? Is there a Wiki for that?
We all know that your obsessive frustration with Michigan stems from deep seeded jealousy. It’s OK. It still hasn’t been long since “thee” Ohio State dropped 10 of 13 against Michigan and missed a bowl game (2000). Even after winning 7 of 8, the bucks are 11-13-1 against Michigan in the past 25 years. Those years hurt, we know. It won’t be long before y’all are back where you belong in this rivalry. You scholars should know how rivalries work… Enjoy!
so being arrested = serving time?
and where did you get this 30 players stat? not saying it’s wrong, just curious
Tressel’s Dirty Thirty – doesn’t include the recent arrests of Nate Williams (theft), Boone II (drunk), or Shugarts/Adams (bong).

Know the facts first before posting about unemployment and the state of Michigan’s economy.
forbes magazine: Where’s it worst? Ohio, according to our analysis, which racked up four of the 10 cities on our list: Youngstown, Canton, Dayton and Cleveland. The runner-up is Michigan, with two cities–Detroit and Flint–making the ranking.
Instead of making fun of it know your facts and join together on that issue. Leave the bickering to football.

Michigan stopped competing with us in football. We were looking for another outlet to have a rivalry…..
We simply enjoy making fun of your football coach.
…and we use the word ‘coach’ very loosely.
There’s only one number that matters:
42-7.
Amen
That’s two numbers but… The only numbers that matter are 57-42-6 – keep lookin’ up bucks. You’re in good company.
What happens when you take out the 20 wins that came before electricity?
What’s the modern era record?
That’s right, burn down history. Live only in the past that best suits your current argument…
If “thee” Ohio State was the winningest program with a winning record against one of it’s rivals, y’all would wear out the t-shirt presses commemorating. Face it – “thee” OSU is the second most storied program in it’s conference with a losing record against it’s most hated rival. It’s OK, just cling to the past 5 years…
wow what a douche.
The last 50 years should be a good barometer, right?
25-23-2, OSU
http://football.stassen.com/cgi-bin/records/opp-opp.pl?start=1959&end=2008&team1=Ohio+State&team2=Michigan
Not to say the ancient past doesn’t matter, but using your logic, Italians would be walking around France talking about how they once owned the place.
Perfect. Since your history only goes back 50 years, “thee” OSU can clear 3 National Championships, 3 Heisman trophy winners, and 11 Big Ten Championships from the records. Oh, and forget about the Illibuck trophy, gold pants, block O, and the victory bell – all instituted prior to 1959. Selective memory of history is great, huh?
Hey, why not be even more recent? In the past 25 years, “thee” Ohio State is 11-13-2 against Michigan. You’re right, this is convenient…
Ok, so then in the past 50 years, even with those forfeits of the years prior to 1959, we’ve still had more Heisman winners, big ten championships, national titles and more wins over our rivals. Those are straight from the records. Even though UM dominated in the eras of Bruce and Cooper and in the early days (pre-1920), It can be argued that OSU has be equal or dominated most other eras of the rivalry.
OK just recounted, UM has 1 more big ten title than OSU over the past 50 years. All else is accurate.
