Hello fellow Buckeye friends!
You may know me from the Harbaugh Says Go Bucks! post, and if not, here's a little background: I'm a Buckeye (class of '11) teaching high school in inner city Detroit.
A Buckeye friend came up to visit a few friends a few weeks ago, and we met up in Ann Arbor during her trip. I asked her if she wanted to step on the M -- to cap the historic national championship run, of course -- but she didn't know what it was. So I explained how UM frats would guard the M during rivalry week, and how there's a myth where you will fail your first blue book exam if you step on the M.
She was a little worried because there were quite a few people out and about. Undeterred, I asked, "So.. are you a real buckeye?"
Her answer...
