It's a horrible but true fact, the Ohio State defense is bad. I want to have some fun with it and would like to post slogans for the defense. Like or hate me for doing this, it is what it is!

Meyer, like Sir Mix a Lot, is apparently focused upon derrieres.

Want to say hello?
We love hearing from you! Whether you want to work with us, discuss advertising opportunities, or pass us a hot tip, you're more than welcome to drop us a line.
I don't love or hate you for doing this, more ambivalent and shocked. No comment about the condom reference. However others may not find this funny and take it serious since our defense is trying to improve. I hope you don't get the ban hammer for trying to be sardonic and using an euphanism to describe our defense recent debacle.
I think I've shared with you before so I minus well get this out to everyone else. If we donated $5 for each missed tackle by our defense this year to Breast Cancer Research we could raise a lot of money. It gets confusing though... Do we want our defense to continue to play bad and not support breast cancer in this case or sharpen and reduce funding? The true paradox. Lol...
That being said, this month is breast cancer month. Make sure you give to the cause and remember one of our own, Stefanie Spielman.

People just need to losen up their attitudes BME and need to stop taking everything so personal and over reacting with fake anger and outrage. Everyone feels the need to be offended by something, that's society.
Tomorrow
With all due respect, don't really like this thread. Defense needs help, yes. Slogans cross the line into disrespect of our boys IMO.
@4dorr You have the right to see it how you want but for me this would be like kicking a family member while their down.... Why would I do that?
O H I O is the Buckeye State
The cliffjumpers should just jump already so the rational fans can have a decent conversation on this forum.
"if irony were made of strawberries, we' d all be drinking a lot of smoothies right now."
We are right to be critical of this defense, but it is because we love the team and want it to be better. I don't think mocking slogans accomplish anything worthwhile.
4Dorr - As effective as a broken condom.
-The Aristocrats!
Yeah, the slogan thing is reaching, but I can give you the top 5 reasons the defense is struggling:
5. Braxton wears them out during the week.
4. Urban told them not to hurt the Hoosier's feelings.
3. All of the LB's have been bribed by scUM boosters.
2. The defense actually enjoys running more wind sprints. (Thank you sir! may I have another?)
1. BTN demands better ratings and commanded tOSU to slow down.
I don't know, isn't Urban putting out an "APB for tough guys" a form of motivational mocking? I think the broken condom thing might be a little too far for the overall commentariat here (not knowing everyone's preference here for that kind of humor), but I don't think that it's necessarily wrong to poke fun at the defense's performance; I mean, we had no problem making fun of Schugarts's false-start propensity and Bollman's ineffective playcalling. We all know they can do better, and want them to improve drastically, but--at least at this point in time-- "Our 'tackle for loss' is your eighty yard gain" is a relative surmization of our defense's performance.
Personally, I can't wait until that statement can be reserved for WVU.
The Ohio State 'Grey Air-soft Pellet' Defense
I got a few...
1) Ohio State's Defense-not performing up to coaches' and players' expectations.
2) Ohio State's Defense-Thanks to Twitter, Facebook, and the Blogosphere, everyone's an expert.
3) Ohio State's Defense-The Buckeyes are 7-0.
4-6 seconds from point A to point B and when you get to point B, be pissed off
By the time any temporarily funny slogan started to "hit home," I'd hope/expect that the defense would already have made it obsolete, and would go back to being the Silver Bullets. On the other hand, if the defense played poorly long enough to "own" the slogan, that wouldn't be funny at all. So, it's kind of a Catch 22.
You're all Michigan fans or something. Silver Bullet D is the best in the B1G.
this is a light hearted forum post, i see nothing wrong with people who use it as such, as long as they dont cross too many lines... the fact is our defense stinks this year, theres no getting around it...understand the homer bias but being realistic doesnt need to get hated on.
You must be those tOSU fans that sympathise with and respect our greatest enemy. You make me sick. Buckeyes defense is amazing as it is and will be number 1 in the nation next season.
Seriously? This is a chance to get out some frustrations. Don't take it seriously or personally. Everyone of us here is a huge Buckeye fan, if not we wouldn't be here. I've been thinking the defense is as affective as a screen door in a hurricane. Shoot me!
Zzzzzzzzzzzzz.......
the monikers dont bother me. but i dont know what we gain from it. the d is bad and hopefully getting better.
mark may wins douchebag of the year... again
2012 Buckeye Defense-"We bend AND break."
How is 4dorr's post any different than the 123456789 thousand posts about our defense? The guy is a fan, looking to have fun; he's not calling for anybody's job unlike many others... you would have thought he just wished death on somebody (Torg).. like DOC said, we're all huge Buckeyes fans... lighten up a little. 7-0!!
Remember that in the end you will be judged not by what you believed, planned or dreamed; but, by what you did.

Umm, I think this veers to the point of jeering at the guys on defense, and laughing at their expense. I will admit it, it makes me uncomfortable. Yeah, yeah, way to throw cold water on it... If I thought they didn't give a damn, then perhaps I wouldn't wince at the slogans. But I do know that the coaches and members of the team do care, are embarrassed and po'ed about it, and are trying to rectify it. I also realize that as a female, some of the stuff guys find to be funny, we generally just don't get. Like Beavis and Butthead, and Jackass. And the Three Stooges.
We could call them France.

As much as I think some of the comments are inventive, I won't be joining in. You don't kick family, friends, or teammates when they're down. Just speaking for myself! No offense taken.
