Monday Moaning

Yep...Monday comes running in like a boot to the head!

Seriously, when I saw this play, I laughed my ass off...This play, and well the play that followed pretty much some up the Cleveland Browns since 1999...




Now lets be honest...Brown could have easily cut left, and blown past Lanning, just as he did to ever other member or the Punt coverage team...But shit, what would make this highlight sweeter? Hurdling the damn punter...Dude had to go for it...But when he realized he wasn't going to clear Lanning, or Lanning wasn't getting out of the way...Fuck, time to move that punter...BOOT TO THE HEAD!  Not a Steelers fan...Not Browns fan...But damn I loved this play!

So, they moved it back because the refs felt the boot to the head was "unnecessary roughness"...Okay, give it to Bell now that we see the Browns can't quite tackle! It's so damn Cleveland, us Clevelanders can't be mad...You just gotta laugh!

And I don't care fellow Clevelanders...So what the Browns came back in the second half, and tied it up...Way to go! Then they fell for a fake punt deep in the Steelers end...Totally got burned...Right then they lost the momentum...And eventually they gave up a big drive, followed by an easy game winning field goal wit h no time left...Sorry, no moral victory...They did what they do best...They lost!

Up next for the Browns...A pissed off New Orleans Saints team that got beat by the Falcons...

Hey, anyone see what happened in College Football this past weekend? Texas got abused, at home, by BYU...I forget the score, but it was BYU: a lot, and Texas: hey when is Texas showing up?

Ohio State lost in prime-time , at home, to unranked Virginia Tech...Urban Meyer admitted afterwards that the Hokies exposed their weaknesses...Like, apparently they stopped recruiting QB's when Braxton Miller signed there, and their young offensive line needs a fuck-ton of practice...

Oregon was down to Michigan State...But then they flipped the NIKE switch, and blew the Spartans out of the water in the second half...

But the best game, in my opinion, was the final matchup (for the time being) between Notre Dame and Michigan...If there is one thing I have in common with Ohio State fans, it's a pure hatred for Michigan...Well, folks...The Irish ended this rivalry in fucking style...The beat the shit out of Michigan 31-0....31-0!




Awesome! There's nothing else to say....



No, seriously, I've got nothing else to say...

Oh, did I forget your weekly eye candy?

Here ya go...

Have a week...

The Beeze's College Football Wrap Up

Guess who's gonna be #1......

That's right Rick Reilly, you fucking asshole!  You stupid fucking cocksucker! What was that you said about Notre Dame being irrelevant?  You stupid fuck-stain...11-0...About to be ranked #1...And getting ready to take on a scuffling #18 USC team, lead by one of the most grossly overrated coaches ever....Lane Kiffin with a team full of talent...taking their 4th loss of the season Saturday, getting worked 38-28 by #17 UCLA...

And how did this happen for #3 Notre Dame...Well Saturday they did what they needed to do...They blasted Wake Forest in South Bend, on Senior Day, 38-0...And Brian Kelly seemed to like opening up the playbook a bit more against the Demon Deacons...

But then Saturday night the other pieces started falling into place...#1 Kansas State went to Baylor, and looked like they had their heads up their asses...Rare, and stupid penalties...Sloppy play...And Baylor's defense did something unusual...They showed up and played tough D...Collin Klein and company struggled all night and his 3 INT's and this loss, most likely killed his chance at the Heisman...And if you guys have paid attention to my college football posts this season, you know I've been all in with K-State and Klein...So while Baylor laid their 52-24 beating on the Wildcats, was great for my Irish, I was slightly bummed...

But wait...It got better...All night, up in #2 Oregon, #13 Stanford's defense was holding the Ducks offense in check...Late in the game, Oregon is up 14-7...But the Cardinal D kept the team in it...And the offense drove down field and tied the game at 14 with just over a minute and a half left...The game went to OT...Stanford held the Ducks to a field goal attempt...Missed!   After a few plays, Stanford kicker Jordan Williamson punched a 37 yard field goal through the uprights....Game over! Bye bye Ducks!

My only problem with the events of Saturday, is now this will allow the arrogant SEC fans to talk about their conference champ playing for the BCS title....#4 Alabama fans are already getting wood, thinking their team is going to roll over Notre Dame...It must be easy to talk tough after you blast Western Carolina 49-0...Nice scheduling! Yes they think their Tide is the cat's ass when blasting cupcakes, and they just try to blackout those struggles against good teams...

But 'Bama wasn't the only big bad SEC team to play cupcakes Saturday...#6 Florida played Jacksonville State...#5 Georgia played Georgia Southern....#9 South Carolina played Wofford...#8 Texas A&M played Sam Houston State...What the hell is that? Even worse, A&M gave up 28 points...Yes, they won 47-28...But 28 points to SHSU...At least #7 LSU stayed in conference, struggling to beat Ole Miss 41-35...Yeah SEC fans, please keep telling us all how tough your teams are!

-This week's shootout once again comes from the Big-12...#12 Oklahoma went to West Virginia...Hey how do they celebrate Halloween in West Virginia?  They Pump kin! 

The Sooners put up 662 total yards, 554 of that through the air...WV put up 458 on the ground and and 320 through the air...In a back and forth battle the Sooners scored last, with 24 seconds left, to win 50-49...

-You know, I mentioned the top teams...But there is another undefeated team...Yes, after beating Wisconsin 21-14, the Ohio State Buckeyes are sitting around with a perfect record, and wondering why they decided to take their Bowl Ban this year, instead of last year...

-There was another big Saturday...Maybe not on a national scale...But it is known as "The Game." Yale at Harvard...Sure, Yale is a 2-8 team and Harvard is a 8-2 team...But this is Harvard vs. Yale...Just like all big rivalry games...None of the other stuff matters...Both teams are bringing everything they have and laying it all on the line...While it was only on the NBC Sports channel, I was glad to see some one showing it...These Ivy League kids deserve to get some pub. too!

Harvard was up 27-24 late, and looking to run out the clock, but when senior running back Trevor Scales broke free on a 3rd and 13 run, there was no stopping him from getting into the end zone 63 yards later, as the Crimson went on to win 34-24...Scales finished the day with 177 yards and that TD...Harvard QB Colton Chapple rushed for 128 yards and a TD himself, while also passing for 209 yards and 2 more TD's...


-Lets close this out with this week's Notre Dame highlights....





That's it, until tomorrow...

Monday Moaning

Well, Thanksgiving has passed so now the mad Christmas rush starts...It's bad enough that stores had Christmas stuff out before Halloween, but now the crazy starts strong...Like all the nut-jobs obsessed with all the deals they can get on Black Friday...I saw this picture, and I had to use it...


I haven't been the biggest supporter of the Occupy Wall Street movement...Mainly because there was no real leadership, or focus...I got what some of the people were talking about, but it was overshadowed too much by the ass-hats that kept getting camera time...But the picture says a lot...The Occupy people were shit on for what they did...Probably by many of these fuck-stains that act like lunatics on Black Friday...Fuck that, I'd rather pat full price, or get a good Christmas Eve sale!

Now before I get into any Sports shit...Here is my REVIEW of an over-hyped, shitty, Grilled Cheese joint...What fucking assholes!

So now we move on to sports...Saturday was the big Ohio State vs. Michigan game...No I don't say Meeeeeeeechigan...I hate them, but that just looks, and sounds stupid when people do that...Now, I also hate Ohio State so I didn't really care about the game...And this year's game just wasn't as hyped as in years past, with OSU having a down year and Michigan getting themselves back on track...So I took the baby for a walk, and then we took a nap...We woke up with a minute and change left in the game...The Buckeyes lost for the first time in 7 years, or something like that...

After that I jumped online and started seeing the tweets and facebook updates...Buckeye fan blowing it off like it was no big deal...Listing their excuses why they lost...Neglecting to list that the big reason that caused so many of those small reasons was that Coach Tressel let his players break NCAA rules, tried to hide it and lied about it, and brought down a proud program in a matter of months...But Buckeye fan doesn't care...They are blogging, and tweeting, and talking about how Urban Meyer is coming to Columbus to save them...

The same Urban Meyer who had a large number of players at Florida get busted for breaking NCAA rules...The same Urban Meyer who quit twice in one year because of health reasons, and wanted to spend time with his family...So it's rumored Ohio State is throwing a huge 7 year deal at him...I wonder if he'll actually make it through that contract...Don't get me wrong, Meyer was a great coach...If you look what he did before Florida, you can see that...He made BGSU a MAC power, then he turned Utah around, and made Alex Smith a first round draft pick...But OSU fan, I see him doing one of two things...Getting your program in more trouble, or quitting in 4 years after being run down again...Oh, and of course, he actually has to take the job...So far, everything has just been speculation...

And don't give me shit for be critical of your damn teams...If you've read me before you know I'm just as honest and critical of my teams...Not all of us go through life with rose colored glasses...So with that, The Notre Dame Fighting Irish went to Stanford to take on Andrew Luck and company...And in the first half, they looked like shit...I thought it was going to be a blow out...Then coach Kelly got that stiff QB Tommy Rees out of there, and put Freshman QB Andrew Hendrix in...Hendrix is perfect for Kelly's spread offense...He runs like Tebow, but he has a fucking cannon for an arm...

Hendrix, along with help from the defense got the Irish back in the game...They lost 28-14, but at least they kept it respectable...

Sunday we put up our Christmas tree, and broke out some decorations...The kids were fired up about it...In the background, The Cleveland Browns were searching out another way to lose a game...Holy shit these receivers drop a lot of passes! Then with less then 2 minutes left...The Browns can take the lead with a field goal...And for the second time in 3 weeks, Butch Davis' best draft pick, long snapper, Ryan Pontbriand fucked up the snap, and Phil Dawson missed the kick...Dude use to be a clutch kicker, and now his snapper is choking and he's pushing kicks wide...Unreal!

Then the Patriots kicked the shit out of "The Dream Team" from Philly...The Eagles looked so bad, those animals in Philly are calling for Andy Reid's big fat head...What took you idiots so long...Fucking guy is grossly overrated...Oh, and as a father he produces quality kids...You know, those two drug dealing sons of his...What? Too Soon? Fuck you! Fuck him! and Fuck his criminal sons! You know what, fuck his wife and her criminal producing gash too!

Speaking of Philly shit heads...The Rangers and Flyers had a warm up for their Winter Classic match up...Lundqvist threw a shutout, and of course some punches were thrown too...




Oh, did you see the Broncos won again? That's right, the lord and savior, Tim Tebow has gotten another win under his belt...Sure, he didn't play defense...Sure he didn't play special teams, but he sure as shit is going to get all the credit from the ass-hats on ESPN and the NFL Network, and from radio talking heads...'Fucking Tebow wins another game, put his ass in the Hall of Fame!'

I know, I'm so negative...So I'll close on a positive...I tweeted a link to this video on Thanksgiving, saying how thankful I am for this little girl...I'm thankful for all my kids, and my wife, and family and friends...But she was singled out, because she was unexpected, and to be honest, for a few minutes when I first found out she was on the way, I didn't want her...Now, I can't imagine my life without her...I can't believe she's almost a year old...




Have a week...

So, here we are again...Another Monday, and what do I have to talk about...Thursday night I had a bunch of stuff in my head, and posted my SCATTERBRAINED thoughts...This post may be like that...

This weekend could be the known as the weekend of chokes...Yeah, some one tell A-Roid you can't swing the bat with your hands around your throat...What an overpaid! twat...But don't just blame him Yankee fan...Big Fat, Fatty Fat, CC Sabathia lived up to his rep, and not his contract as well...He's another playoff choke artist....And holy shit, how many subs is that bastard choking down...You can't pitch well when your dreaming about cheesecake!

Fuck it was great seeing those ass-hats fall on their faces...I could hit better with runners on base then the Yankees did...But it didn't end there...The Phillies and their power-house pitching staff fell to the shitty Cardinals...I couldn't believe it...But I wasn't sad!

-But the choke job that really made me smile...Oh, shit, I won't lie...I got hard! Saturday night, Ohio State is leading Nebraska 27-6 in the third quarter...Then, the Huskers rallied back and beat the Suckeyes 34-27...Within seconds of the game ending, the Fire Fickell tweets started firing off...Sunday morning, there were plenty of BLOGS out there, making the excuses why Ohio State lost again...About why they're so bad...Putting blame on suspended players...Ummm the defensive players who were suspended were back! It was the defense the collapsed in the 4th quarter...

And lets stop acting like losing Terrelle Pryor was that bad of a thing...Dude was over-hyped, with a bad throwing motion, who made bad reads and couldn't take his eyes off his primary target...Kid sucked! And lets not act like Braxton Miller getting hurt in the 3rd quarter is the whole reason your team lost...He ain't shit either!

Fucking funny how all these Ohio State people were all behind Tressel's boy Fickell, and now they're all getting in line to suck Urban Meyer's cock...You Gashes are un-fucking-real!

-Oh, and since I'm on the topic of Ohio State...I watch a couple high school football games a week...At least one on TV and then I checkout my local team...Our team blows...The coach is a dope, they're undersized...Our band out numbers the football team...We dress 30 kids...But at least we have our own fucking Fight Song! All but one team we have played this year just play the stupid Ohio State Fight Song as their own...What a bunch of unoriginal fucks!

- The Red River Shootout...Here's another obnoxiously over-hyped fucking game...Hey Texas, how's Oklahoma's dick taste? They say everything is bigger in Texas...I guess that includes the margin you lose to Oklahoma by too...55-17...Thank God my daughter was cheer leading at a 9-10 year old football game...Those poor kids lost 22-0, but showed more ball bag than the Longhorns did...

-Luckily that was over in time for me to watch Notre Dame not choke...The Irish rolled Air Force 59-33...And honestly, it wasn't even that close...I was glad ND won, I had been worried about this game...The Service Academies always come to play, and in the past the Irish have struggled with defending the option...The Irish are off next week, before a big Prime time game against USC...I'll be there, and I can't wait!

-The Browns were on a Bye Sunday, so that was one less headache in my life...I watched the Bills vs. the Eagles...Holy shit, are the Bills that solid, or are the Eagles that fucking bad...Either way, it's making people in Philly miserable that their high-priced team is 1-4, so I'm happy...

Then I watched the Patriots beat the Jets...Always fun...Especially since the Jets have been put in their place, and they are looking up at both the Pats and the Bills...

-The Big NFL news this weekend was the passing of Al Davis...No word if it had anything to do with choking...While death is sad for friends and family, I can't feel bad about this one...Guy put in 82 years...That's a lot of time...And while he did a great many things for the progress of Football, I wasn't around for that...I was around for the part where he was a pain in the ass...Where he was obnoxious, making horrible draft picks, and giving stupid contracts, and where he was firing coaches every hour on the hour...In my eyes, he did what Brett Favre did...He was respected, and loved, and then tarnished all that by being a douchebag over the last 10 years...

Now I'll end with this rant...I caught wind of it, and posted it on facebook...It's spreading like wildfire, and it should...I wish I had a rant this epic in me...




That's it for now...Have a week...

No, this week we won't be starting off the post with a hottie...We'll start with Lady Liberty watching over the Ground Zero, and the construction of the Freedom Tower...I remember every detail from that day...From the moment I woke up, through falling asleep with the TV on late that night...We make a point to tell our kids about that day, and what happened...September 11, 2001 was the biggest moment in History, that I have lived through...We have to share our history with our kids, if we want them to learn...

I have no good segue at this point, to move into the much less important shit that I usually post...So here we go...I guess there are things my kids can learn from Notre Dame Football...


They can learn how to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, as once again, The Fighting Irish gave away another football game...The Irish moved the ball well against Michigan, and the defense played an excellent first half...But then it all fell apart...Again, too many penalties...And again with the Turnovers...There is a group of Irish fans in love with QB Tommy Rees, and is great demeanor, but guess what...4 interceptions, and 2 fumbles, in a game and a half isn't fucking great!

Then there was this fucking guy....


Michigan QB Denard Robinson was pretty well contained in the first half, but the second half, especially the fourth quarter, he owned the Irish defense...Robinson is a big-time pimp, because he's got at least 11 bitches in his stable...Yes, the Irish D are all his bitches...In two games against Notre Dame, Robinson has over 900 yards of total offense...

As a lifelong ND fan, I'm disgusted...I can't wait for Hockey season...I lost some followers on Twitter Saturday night because of how I was blasting the Irish...But you know what, they earned that blasting...2 games into the season, and they handed both games to their opponents...Many of us Irish faithful had high hopes this season...Now, I'm just hoping they have a game without a turnover...Or one where the defense doesn't fall apart...Shit, it's no longer about wins, now it's just about not sucking...

I spent all last week defending Notre Dame Football to my buddies at work...I'm fucking done with shit...There's no defending this shit!

-Ohio State fan, again, I must remind you to relax...You beat Toledo...Big deal...Oh, by the way, you barely beat Toledo!

-Speaking of shitty Ohio Football...Clevelanders had their hopes up again, about the Browns season...And everyone thought they had an easy win coming Sunday against the Bengals...NOT SO MUCH...7 first quarter penalties for negative 48 yards! unreal! The offense looked awful early...But eventually they let Colt McCoy lose, rolling him out, and letting him look down field...But then they got away from it again...And like Notre Dame, late in the game, the defense crumbled...

I had hoped the Browns could put together a .500 season, but after the play today, and already being thin on the O-Line, and Linebacker, and in the secondary, and having shit at WR...They may be lucky to get 5 wins!

So here I sit...Born and raised Browns fan...Die-hard Notre Dame fan since I was a little kid...Football season has just begun, and I'm disgusted with my teams...Now I love college football, so it will keep my interest...But the Browns, I just don't think I can stomach another rebuilding year, considering every year since 1999 has been about rebuilding...Fantasy Football will keep in tune to the NFL, but I have little hope of the Browns turning it around quickly this year...After Sunday, I feel like it will be another, long, hard, painful, year for Browns fans...

-Did you hear about Joe Torre being a dick to the New York Mets...The Mets asked to wear caps representing 9-11 first responders...Torre, MLB’s executive vice president for baseball operations, threw policy in their face, saying, "We just felt all the major leagues are honoring the same way with the American flag on the uniform and the cap. This is a unanimity thing.”

Heaven forbid, a team from New York, do something special in honor of their city's first responders, who gave so much...Torre is a perfect fit in the MLB offices...Just like Selig, he's a fucking douche bag!

That's all I have for now...Have a week...

Wow! Two weeks in a row Mother Nature has been causing trouble, and gives me an excuse to post a pic of some tastiness in the rain! Not that I need much of an excuse!

So the weather caused some issues at the Notre Dame game, but the weather gets no credit for the disgrace that took place on the field...I'm not taking anything away from USF...They are a good team, with a good coach, but the Irish handed them the game right from jump...

Notre Dame looked great in their opening drive, all the way up to the point where Jonas Gray fumbled at the goal-line...If you read my IRISH_PREVIEW you saw that I pointed out, that Gray needed to knock off his fumbling habits! Too bad he didn't read it...USF scooped it up and ran it all the way back for 6...This didn't seem to rattle the Irish, except for QB Dayne Crist, who started making bad reads, and throwing bad passes...The Irish got to the red zone 4 times and left with 0 points on the board in the first half...

Theo Riddick fumbled a punt inside the Irish 20 yard line, and that rattled him for the rest of the day...He couldn't handle any punts...bobbled them all, never got his feet under himself, and looked scared shitless...Then he started dropping passes...

Oh, and don't forget the stupid fucking penalties...Harrison Smith, two fucking face-masking penalties in a row...He should have been benched...Gray and Riddick too!

Coach Brian Kelly looked like he was going to start ripping players faces off...After halftime/ a long weather delay, Kelly benched Crist, and put in Tommy Rees...The Irish came out fired up, missed a field goal...Rees threw a pick...And yet, they still were pushing to comeback...Another weather delay with 4 minutes left in the game...Then Rees threw another pick...Irish get it back, score, down by 3, go for the onside kick, don't get it, game over...

I was so upset watching this Football game, my oldest daughter, who hasn't seen this side when we go to the local high school games, asked, "Why do boys like Football so much when it makes them mad?" Good fucking question honey! I took to twitter with my anger so I wouldn't upset the kids...Some ND supporter tweeted, "We understand why Irish fans are upset. You are welcome to be upset. We will continue to support Notre Dame our mother. Don't turn on these young men."

Which of course got under my skin, so I responded with this, "Oh, thank you for allowing me to be upset! How kind of you! Wow, you've got some balls!" They came back with, "@TheBeeze34 Think you are taking what was said the wrong way. Just asking #Irish fans to not turn on our guys."

So I hit them with two more..."@TNNDN #Irish fans have the right to want their team to not fumble games away. QB's not to throw picks and make bad reads" and "@TNNDN Say what you want, but it's their job. They are getting a $50,000 yr education for playing football. Fans have the right 2 b pissed!"

I really hate when people are so arrogant, that they feel they speak for all fans everywhere, and that they need to tell us how to feel...Blow me! I'll cheer how I want, and I'll be pissed if I want...I have been a loyal, and die hard Notre Dame fan forever...And to me being a fan doesn't mean being blind...That team played like a steaming pile of dog shit, and a real fan admits to it, and calls them on it!

Fuck it, I need to move on...Speaking of Blind fans...Saw some dope Ohio State fan flying this flag...


That's right Buckeye Nation...Never forget that Jim Tressel cheated his way to that record, and now you have one of his understudies coaching the team now...So most likely the same shit is going on...Oh, and could you assholes stop being so fucking excited that Ohio State beat the hell out of Akron...Of course they did...OSU's 3rd stringers are better then Akron's 1st team...That's why they play at Akron! Fuck take the best High School team from Cleveland, and the best from Cincinnati, and they could take it to Akron...Fuck you people are retarded!

And since I'm here, Why the fuck hasn't Roger Goodell Suspended Jim Tressel yet...If you didn't know, Tressel got a job as a BS assistant with the Colts...Now Goodell upheld the NCAA's ruling on Terrell Pryor, and suspended him for his first 5 games in the league...So why hasn't he come out and done the same to Tressel...Tressel was given 2 games by the NCAA initially, and then said he'd take 5...Once again, the commissioner's office is being inconsistent in it's rulings...

And any of you Suckeye fans have a problem with me writing truth, all I have to say is this...



Now, who missed the TCU vs. Baylor game Friday night...Listen, if you see a reply airing on one of the ESPN's, watch it, and remember what I wrote about ROBERT_GRIFFIN back in July!

Now I've spent all this time bitching about Football...Real quick, lets get into something else...Mrs. Beeze and I have both gotten emails from people in the last week...They've been those chain-letter types of emails...We've gotten them from about 5 people, all the same, telling us how we all need to be flying our American Flags on the 10th anniversary of 9-11...Let me ask you this...Why the fuck aren't you flying your American Flag every day!?!

Now, before we go enjoy our Labor Day festivities...I thought we should celebrate with a little Kate Upton!




Have a week...

To Pay or Not to Pay....

Everytime a major College Football program gets in trouble, the topic of paying college athletes comes up...For a number of years I was in favor of giving players a stipend...Yes, these athletes get full scholarships to these universities, but I always bought into the theory, of they still need spending money...And why shouldn't they get a tatse...They are making their Universities, and the NCAA boat loads of money every year...

But my opinion may have switched...Yes, they are making the NCAA and their Universities tons of money, but that free room and board, books, and free education, is pretty fucking expensive these days...

And then we start getting the articles, and tv shows, and radio hosts, who say these kids take the money, because of a socieconomic difference...This is brought up mainly because such a large number the players caught are black...Well, that's a weak, bullshit excuse...Because, as you can see from the Ohio State scandal, and now the Miami scandal, these players didn't take teh money to buy pizza, or take their girl friend out on a date...No, instead they make deals for cars...Tattoos...Strippers...Partying...Hookers...Hookers' abortions..."Bling"...Fancy clothes, and other unnecessary bullshit...

Included in the names dropped in teh Miami scandal, was Kellen Winslow Jr...Don't try that socieconomic shit there...Dude was a rich kid, who's daddy made plenty of cash in the NFL, and was smart with his money...Jr. wasn't some kid who had it tough, growing up in the hood...He was just a rich punk, who wanted more...

Stop trying to play the race game, or the poor kid game...This game is all about Greed...The NCAA is greedy, making money on the backs of teh schools...The schools are greedy, making money on teh backs of the players...The players see that, and they're greedy, and they want theirs...And they willingfully, take illegal gifts and money, from greedy doners who want to feel a part of something bigger...Trickle-down economics is still alive and kicking...

And as much as we want to see the NCAA be tough on these programs, and make major changes to fix things, they won't...There is too much money to be made off of these players and programs!

Open Letter to JDIN827

This post, like many before, is inspired by one of the biggest, Ohio State/Jim Tressel/Cleveland supports you will ever read...Her posts are tired, as they all seem to be the same rah, rah, bullshit, copied and pasted from her last post...But last night, she didn't bring all that garbage to the table...Instead, she just brought her pissing and moaning, because 'everybody is always picking on Ohio State!'

So I wanted to explain to her why her beloved Buckeyes are getting dumped on so much more than other programs...First, read her brief cry-fest HERE...

And yes, in case you didn't see, Miami_is_in_Trouble...

So first, people aren't jumping up and down on Miami, because the story is just breaking...All the dirty little secrets haven't been brought to light, dummy! Second, let's all be honest, this is the shit we all expect from Miami...This won't be the first time that they end up in hot water with the NCAA, and it won't be the last...Maybe it's seems unfair princess Suckeye, but that's just the way it is...

Why is it that way? Because Tressel crafted an image of being a wholesome, aww shucks, Christian, goodie two shoes, who parents trusted their kids with...Oh, and his teams played good defense and could run the ball...When Tressel stepped onto the campus, he brought respectability back to Ohio State, on and off the field...Why people thought that, I don't know since he just spent a number of years cheating at Youngstown State...And many of us knew about that before the big Sports Illustrated article!

Why did bloggers call Tressel a liar and cheater you ask? Because he lied and cheated! It wasn't just the cover-up he perpetrated, but then the lying once he was questioned...He knowingly played 38 players who should have been ineligible...The worst part to me is that more heads didn't roll...The AD should have been whacked too...There's no way that bastard didn't know about any of this...I'll get to that in a minute...

Lovely JDIN827, you brought up UNC getting busted...Well, again people weren't surprised...Butch Davis may be a good coach, but no one turns a bad program around that quick without some shenanigans...Oh, and it was Butch Davis...You know, Miami Butch Davis! And yes, saying that cheating is expected from schools in the SEC is a cop-out, but it's somewhat true...Those schools you mentioned, while they are prestigious Football schools, other than Michigan, none have the Holier than Thou reputation that Tressel brought to Ohio State...And yes, the Ohio State fan-base is arrogant as hell!

Oh, and you mentioned USC...They got beat up by bloggers and the press...And Pete Carrol got hammered for being dirty, and then running to Seattle when shit got too hot...It's time JDIN827, for you to pull your head out of the sand...


Now I said I'd get back to the Ohio State AD...He had to know about some of the crap going on there...But why would he stop it...Ohio State Football brings in hundreds of thousands of dollars a year...And Football keeps the Athletic Department running...Most major Universities have 16-18 varsity sports...Ohio State has 40...Including a women's Hockey team that loses $1 million a year...A women's Crew team which just had a $5 million boat house build, and loses $1 million a year...As a matter of fact, most of the 40 programs lose money...

So the AD has to push his Coach to win, and win now, and contend every year...So of course Tressel was under extreme pressure to produce winners repeatedly...There is no way he didn't know the pressure Tressel and his staff were under...And there is no way that Tressel was the only member of the coaching staff that knew anything, or covered anything up...

The hammer should have been dropped on Ohio State, but they have been one of the NCAA's crown jewels for too long, and they make the NCAA too much money...So JDIN827, and all you arrogant, Jim Tressel nut swinging, douchebag, Ohio State fans, you should just shut up and be happy that your team got off as easy as they did...Stop worrying about other schools' problems, and focus on fixing your own...Stick your tears, and your rah, rah, sis-boom, bah, up your ass!

Well, thank God for Kate Upton...She can always put a smile on my face...


That's a good thing, because I haven't smiled much this past weekend...

In case you missed my Saturday night POST, shit like this junkie bitch, sharing the headlines with the Massacre that took place in Norway, makes me hate this world...

With all that has been going on in the world, and some things in my own little world, I've been having a hard time getting motivated to write my normal Monday (mostly) Sports blog...

Honestly, there has been non-stop talk about the NFL Players and Owners possibly reaching a new CBA deal...There has been some players bitching, and the owners may be trying to make them look bad, and force them into a crap deal...Guess what? I don't give shit! I'd almost be happy to see them all shit the bed, and completely piss off their fan base...Maybe they'd learn a lesson, but I doubt it...

I had planned earlier in the week to write about some possible MLB trades, like will the Indians or Pirates be willing actually make deals that would help them stay in contention? But I really don't care at this point...

There is another thing that happened in sports that has me salty...The rumors swirling around are saying that Ohio State isn't going to get hammered by the NCAA...If this is true, then the NCAA is completely full of shit! If it was a smaller program, they would have crushed them...Just by getting rid of Tressel and forfeiting the 2010 doesn't make it all better...Ohio State still keeps the money they made, including the money from the Sugar Bowl...

Plus with Tressels history of cheating and rules violations, and the fact that it's been proven that his bullshit at Ohio State has been going on since 2002, the University has to be held somewhat accountable...And the rest of the programs need to be put on notice, that no one is untouchable...What a bunch of horse shit!

Greed makes the world go around...Money and power are in bed together, and they are making evil little babies!

I mentioned things in my own little world that were bothering me as well...The biggest thing is my Uncle is seriously sick, and they aren't sure why yet...He, along with my parents and their two totally different tastes in music, was the biggest influence on me falling in love with music...It was him, before anyone else, that made me want to play guitar...So I leave this week's post by listening to him...



Have a week...

I noticed Women's Golf was on a couple times this weekend...Both times it was on channels and times that it was scheduled to be there...I really hate having things forced on me...Although, if this was the required attire for women's golf, and they all looked that good, the ratings would go through the roof...

Now, the whole Ohio State/Jim Tressel thing has gotten tired, or at least I thought so...Yet there are still people who are loyal to the cheating bastard...And they all say all coaches at major programs are cheating...REALLY? Prove it! It's the weakest argument out there...It's easy as hell to say, but sure seems hard to prove based on the number of major programs, and the very few coaches that have been killed for cheating...

So this past week, Ohio State came out and said that Tressel's resignation, was forced...WHAT A SHOCKER DOUCHEBAGS! I guess the rumblings inspired my not-so-favorite Cleveland Sports blogger...Poor gal has been relegated to posting at a Canadian site...Here is her latest POST...I hope they can handle the traffic they're going to get!

As so many of her posts do, this one is simply a copy and paste of Tressel's resume...Shady shit not included...She likes to act if this whole tattoos for memorabilia thing was a one-time slip-up...Except it's been proven that this stuff has been going on since 2002...Plus there is the 28 known players who were getting cars...There was Tressel lying about knowing about this...Lying about getting a warning that the FEDS were looking into a drug ring at the tattoo shop, and that players may be involved...

Oh, and she blows past the illegal shit Tressel did at Youngstown State...After he left, that program fell apart...Not because their great coach was gone, but because the sanctions that were thrown down on the program, because the great coach was getting his players set up with cars and jobs that they didn't need to show up for...Multiple former players in jail...Countless ex-players talked about Tressel and what he knew, and did for them, but the loyalist just say it's sour grapes...That argument could work, if it was one or two...But it's been a lot more than that...

It's time for a reality check JDIN! Take of the Scarlet colored glasses, and understand not everything is shades of Grey...Some shit is black and white, and right and wrong...Don't you get tired of being wrong!?!

On a more positive note with Ohio State...Former Buckeye LB, Mike Vrabel has decided to retire from the NFL, and is going to become the new Linebacker's coach at his Alma Mater...Ohio State is hoping that the addition of Vrabel can get their recruiting back up to speed, since it's been bogged down since this Tressel mess...I'm not a Buckeye fan, but I've always liked Vrabel...I hope he does well, and finds a great career in coaching...

Earlier I talked about people needing a reality check...Well in case you missed my stuff last week, it was full of reality checks...A bit for media and everyone following the Casey_Anthony trial...

I also got on the death of the Space Program, and AMERICAN_EXCEPTIONALISM...

And then I took on the DEFICIT, and announced my run for the White House...

Now a bit of History before we end...Sunday was NIKOLA_TESLA'S 155 birthday...The man was a genius, who never gets the credit he deserves...Here's the band Tesla rocking out their anthem for him, in their classic homo-erotic video...

Nice cans, but fuck Burrows bitch!

If you don't know what she and I are talking about, look below...

Yes, Canucks douchebag, Alexander Burrows, bit the finger of Patrice Bergeron in game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals...So what happened? The pussies running the NHL did nothing about it...Burrows went on to score two goals in game 2, helping his team to a 2-0 series lead...The Big Wigs in the NHL have a knack for being inconsistent when it comes to punishment...If this would have been Sean Avery, he would have been suspended for the rest of the series, fined, and new rules would have been written saying his mouth can't be open within 2 feet of another player...

Remember when they wrote the "Avery Rule" two days after this happened...



But enough of that...The biggest reason the Bruins are down 2-0 is their defensemen get caught pinching in too often...Goalie Tim Thomas gets too aggressive and over compensates for his defensemen, especially when they are down, or in OT, and then gets out of position because of it...He needs to rein it in...

In other Hockey news...Wednesday I wrote about the sale of the Atlanta Thrashers, and their move to Winnipeg...And before that I wrote about the shitty, non-supportive fans in Atlanta...So I was thrilled to see this weekend, that Winnipeg sold out their 13,000 Season Ticket plans in 17 minutes...Hey Atlanta, eat a dick! Hey Gary Bettman, fuck you for doubting the people of Winnipeg...You can choke on a load too!

Next up...Did you hear about USA_SOCCER?
To Baseball...The topic of Buster Posey getting injured in a collision at home plate, just won't die...I've read too many blogs about it...Commented too many times...Heard too many talking heads chime in on it...Well here is my last statement on it...HOPEFULLY...

Scott Cousins made a hard-nosed Baseball play, that players are taught to do...Posey, as a catcher knows the risks of playing the position...It's not Cousins' fault that Posey's stupid spike got stuck in the ground...It's Baseball, and while it's not as physical/violent as Football or Hockey, there are still aggressive, physical, contact plays in it...It was a clean play...

And.....Fuck you San Fransisco Giants Fans...After one of your own was beaten nearly to death by asshole Dodger fans, you fucking cocksuckers turn around and make death threats to Cousins...Fuck you fucking fucks!

On to more asshole fans...A group of Ohio State/Jim Tressel fans, showed up at his house, and did cheers and sang songs, showing their love and support for this cheating ass-hat...Tressel responded by coming out, and guaranteeing a victory over Michigan this year...For_Real!
What an asshole!

Ahhh, shit...Once again the baby is awake...She has been making a habit out of waking up sometime between 11 PM and 1 AM, and staying up for a couple hours...Wanting to play or just hang out with Dad...Maybe she just wanted to get her cute face in another blog...

I was going to writ a bit about what acunt Paris Hilton was this past week on the O & A show...She then threw a hissy fit after being on the View...But maybe I'll save that one just for itself tomorrow...Instead we'll end with Kate Upton, dancing and being hot...




I swear to God I heard her say she wants to fuck The Beeze!

The Beeze's Hump Day Hits

Well Winnipeg, I hope the Thrashers Ice Girls are part of the deal!

Yes, The Atlanta Thrashers sale has happened, and they will be moving to Winnipeg...Ahh, Hockey, back up North where it belongs...No offense to the South, but Hockey really isn't your thing...And this being the second team to leave Atlanta for Canada, well I think that point was made clear...

And no Atlanta, I don't want to hear you crying about this...You had superstar players like Heatley, Kovalchuk, and Hossa...And you didn't show up...You had a team that even when they put together quality seasons, you didn't show up...The franchise lost money every year, and that has more to do with you, then it does ownership, or the players...

Then of course NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, who was all in with this deal...Odd, since he lead the charge to take Hockey to the Sunbelt...So Bettman was all in, but then issued a warning to Winnipeg, that they need to support this franchise, or the league will move them elsewhere...Really Gary!?! You're going to tell Canadians in Manitoba that they need to support a Hockey team!?! What a fucking asshole!

Don't worry dummy, they'll make Atlanta fans look like the joke that they are!

Now you are going to get a tiny bit of Basketball from me...I know, this is rare...I'm not a fan, and don't pay much attention to it...But I saw a lot of rumblings about the Lakers hiring former Cavaliers coach Mike Brown...Listen, the guy was only fired because that's what LeBron wanted, and the Cavs wanted to do anything to keep him...He was the third coach that was fired because James wasn't happy with him...And as far as being a good coach, he did a lot of winning with a shit team, that had one player, with a giant ego on it...He'll do just fine in LA...

Now to the hot topic in Ohio...Jim Tressel was forced out at Ohio State...The word came down on Memorial day...Not a classy move, but Tressel is full of non-classy moves...I'm sure his hope was on a day like Memorial Day, the story wouldn't get too big, and it would knock a day or two off the news cycle...Guess what, no such luck Jimmy boy...

I lost followers on Twitter because my views on Tressel, which I have shared plenty times before...Dude should have been fired a long time ago...When he left Youngstown State, they got drilled by the NCAA...He has had multiple players locked up...A couple killed...He has always bent the rules, and protected his players...This time he got caught, most likely because of his ego...How could it not be huge with the way people in Ohio love this jerk...

It was amazing to see all the people talking about how unfair it is, and how he should have stayed...How the NCAA should go easy on Ohio State now...NOPE! Ohio State should get the "Death Penalty"...Why? Because at one time, there were at least 28 players who were breaking NCAA rules...28 players in cars they shouldn't have been in...That's 28 players that he knew should have been ineligible, but played them anyways...Pryor had 4 different cars so far...Then the tattoos...Then the big one...When asked, he knowingly lied to the NCAA...

The compliance Department should get whacked...The AD should get whacked...The University needs to be held accountable, just as much as the coach and the players...There is no way they didn't know...The NCAA needs to nut up, and set an example...

But enough of that...Wednesday night...Stanley Cup Finals! It's gonna be a good one!

Now on this hot Hump Day...This is for all you Thrashers fans...All 250 of ya...Which of these lovely Thrashers Ice Girls would you most like to bang all the way to Winnipeg!

Monday is here again, so it's time for the weekly dose of moaning...This weekend has been a real son of a bitch...My traditional Fish House Saturday double was brutal...Non-stop cooking from 12:30 PM to 9:30 PM...If that wasn't bad enough, my boss who is normally as cock-strong as they come, when it comes to bangin' food, was having an off night...There was a stench coming from his station that reminded me of my baby's diapers!

When I left the Fish House, I was in need of a drink or two...I said I was going to stop for a couple, then this one uber-douchebag server said, "dude I'll be there!" So instead I stopped at a Little Cesar's, grabbed a $5 "Hot & Ready" pie...Walked next door to the liquor store and got a 6-pack of Conway's Irish Ale...Then I headed home...

When I got there, the baby was still up, and gave me a huge smile...Everything was better than...Plus the wife was pissed...She's jealous of how much the baby love dad, and is always throwing smiles and giggles my way...

Sunday morning I checked out the NCAA_HOCKEY_BRACKETS...Yeah, I'm that guy...That's a bracket I could kick ass in...My Fighting Irish have a tough draw...They start with Merrimack, who has been tough all year...If they get past them, they'll have to take on the winner of the Miami/New Hampshire game...Two more solid teams...Miami knocked the Irish out of the CCHA tourney last week, and has gotten real hot at the right time...Is anyone one left out there? I'm picking Boston College to win it all...The Irish just don't have the goaltending this year...Okay, I'll move on...

Then I popped on the Rangers/Penguins game...The Rangers got a much needed win, which will always put a smile on my face...But it was the Penguins, so of course one of those douchebags would piss me off...Good ole Matt Cooke is at it again...Going after another head...Here's Cooke throwing an elbow at Rangers defenseman Ryan McDonagh...



Cooke has taken cheap shot after cheap shots at people...Going after knees, and heads for years...He's been find and suspended multiple times...The NHL needs to put their foot down, and bring the hammer down on this ass-hat!


Sunday evening I had my Fantasy Baseball draft...Our buddy Jeff is running the league, and it seems like a good group of smart guys...Half I know from the Gab...

The draft itself was, well how do I describe this without being a dick...It was brutal! There was a guy I don't know in the 2 hole...Puljos went 1st...I never thought I would see some one in the 2 hole take their full 2 minutes to make a pick...After all that waiting, he didn't do anything sexy...He didn't surprise anyone...He took Hanley Ramirez...The # 2 guy on the board...But that wasn't all...He ate the clock on every pick...And by the comment section, I wasn't the only one losing my mind...



It got worse...The Little Beeze was all hyped up, and overtired, and being a real pain in the ass...He kept pestering the wife, and getting crazy around the baby...Then his mouth wouldn't stop...So in mid-draft, as I was on the phone with my pals Sully and Steve, talking about how quickly the blind draft, I had to get in the boys face...Then the water-works started...Then more mouthiness, then he passed out on the couch...

From there, the draft dragged on...The commish adjusted the time limit as it progressed, but the damage had been done...I had to break out the charger to finish...

As I write this, Notre Dame is getting worked by FSU...I picked the Irish to win it...Why not, I don't know shit about Basketball! The team I had them beating in the Final, just got bounced tonight...Sorry Steve, I know watching Marquette take out your Syracuse Orange had to hurt...

Well, what are you going to? Cry? Sometimes you just have to have a little Blind Faith....




One last thing...Ohio State fans, please stop acting like Jim Tressel just nailed himself to the cross, and is going to wash away all of your sins...He's just doing his best politician spin, and you dopes are eating it up...

That's all for now...Have a week...

Yes, she has nothing to do with this post, except she looks great, and with the world going to hell in a hand basket, we can always use some great ass!

So my week began with the little Beeze getting a cold...Then mid-week I had to take a day off from the Fish House to take the Mrs. to the ER...Her left knee was swollen, and she couldn't walk...It turns out some asshole doctor gave her two prescriptions for two different things, that when they are in your system at the same time, they can cause your tendons get inflamed and weakened...She had ruptured a tendon...So now she's gimped up and kept me from seeing "Kill the Irishman"...If it was released in your town, check it out...Some true Cleveland mob shit there!

We limped into the weekend with my oldest daughter getting the Flu...But it could be worse...A lot worse...As I saw the news of the Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan I realized how lucky I am, and how trivial so much of what I blog about is...

Now am I going to stop blogging about sports, politics, chicks, and douche-baggery? Of course not!

So let's get to the NFL Lockout...Heaven forbid they be upstaged by Earthquake and Tsunami, and possible Nuclear Meltdown...They had to get into the news cycle...My view on this whole thing...I don't give a shit! Really! I've always liked College Football more...I'll be fine without these rich fuckers who are bitching over billions of dollars...

Seriously, I have a friend who is a teacher in Wisconsin...He's having his right to collective bargaining stripped from him...But the NFL Players Union and NFL owners can't agree on a CBA because they're billions of dollars apart...

Last week I got into the topic of Wisconsin and Ohio politics more...You can read it HERE...

My friend talked about the crap he was taking from people for being a teacher, and being Liberal...The people who would describe themselves as not only conservatives, but also as religious...He pointed out a good point..."Jesus was an activist and an organizer"...But then again, I've often seen a great number of people who consider themselves Christian, are the least compassionate, caring, understanding, and loving people around...All shit their God stood for!

Now, quickly to Baseball...I signed up for Fantasy Baseball this past week...I'm looking forward to this league...Lots of good guys...Good smack...And plenty of Baseball smarts...Then I heard an inning of an Indians Spring Training game, and I realized I'm not ready for Baseball yet! I need to get studying before the draft...The Indians have made me forget about Baseball...Time to hit the books...

Now if you want some good Hockey talk, check out my buddy Hotch's last POST...

Big news in Ohio last week...Ohio State Head Football Coach Jim Tressel got busted for covering up his players stupidity...In case you missed that, he was Talking_In_Circles...

What has really pissed me off about this, is all the Tressel lovers...The "In Tressel we trust" people...The lovers of the vest! Many people are just giving this an 'aw shucks' kind of attitude...They're believing his lies, and chalking it up as a mistake...None have come up with a quality defense for his actions...One of the biggest Tressel loyalists I know of, gave a very weak defense..."Even with Sanctions, We're Still Going to Kick Meeeeeeeeechigan Arse!"

That was it...One sentence and picture posted improperly, so it couldn't be viewed...That's the best she could come up with...Ms. Cleveland/Ohio State, that's the best she could do...She's always saying how great this city and state are...

Why don't you write something of substance...Write about how the city is trying build a casino, and has many development plans, yet they want to layoff more police officers...How about the disgrace that is the Cleveland Public Schools...And the fact that people are moving out of the city and county in droves...Why would you? When all you can muster up for one of your heroes is that one line of bullshit!

"You make me want to Smoke!"

One last thing...As the world is falling apart, I want to make something clear to McDonald's...Why are you putting whipped cream and a cherry on my milkshakes...You're copying Steak and Shake...I don't want a faggot cherry on my Shamrock Shake...Don't get mad my gay friends...You know you love me!

That's it for now...Look for my Hump Day post, where I'll be digging into the end of the world...

Have a week...

Talking in Circles

Jim Tressel opened his press conference/public apology, by pointing out that he had notes in his hand and that, "The sports guys can tell you I often talk in circles"...The notes were to help him not do that, and to be clear and concise...Then Tressel preceded to talk in circles...

For those who may have missed it, Monday night Yahoo broke a story about Tressel having known of his 5 players wrong doings back in April of 2010...Those being the five dopes who sold off awards, and rings and jerseys for tatoos and cash, and who were still allowed to play in the Sugar Bowl, but are suspended for the first few games of next season...I say few, because I expect to see there suspensions reduced from five...

Well, it turns out the story is true...Tressel knew and didn't inform the University or the NCAA...After talking in circles for a few minutes, he got to the point that he had received emails about a federal drug investigation that involved some of his players...And then he pointed out that confidentiality was asked for...Now we all no that doesn't matter to the NCAA...Repeatedly he went back to the confidentiality, just to make sure we all knew he really didn't mean to screw the pooch, while talking in circles some more...He talked about using the info as a teaching tool for his players...I guess the didn't get the message since five of them also screwed the pooch...

Then he talked about how he has learned from this, and how he now knows how to better handle a situation like this, if it was to ever happen again...I have to ask, how did he not know before this? the man has been coaching in the college ranks since a before I was born...(He started in 1974) Him not knowing what to do is bullshit! Personally I think he was trying to keep it quiet, and protect his players, and probably telling them to knock the stupid shit off...

As it turns out, the players are clear of the drug investigation, but that just lead to the investigation of them selling their shit...

Tressel was fined $250,000 dollars, had to make a public admission guilt and apology, that was tonight's little song and dance, and suspended for two games...Those games will both be home games against Akron and Toledo...How harsh! WTF!

They went easy on him...Why, because he has built a great image of himself...Mr. Clean, by the book...Mr. can't lose to Michigan if he tried...He just looks so damn nice and honest with his silly little sweater vests...I shit you not, this squirrely little bastard could run for governor in this state and he'd win in a landslide...And that's kinda how I see him...As a politician...FULL OF SHIT!

Money, the NCAA, Ohio State, and Money

Well in case you missed the news that has been buzzing around Ohio since last night, 5 Ohio State Football players have been suspended for the first 5 games next season, including "star" QB Terrelle Pryor...Apparently, the players have been selling off jerseys, and shoes, and awards, for money, and or discounts...They also swapped autographs for cheap tattoos...

Why would they do this? This is a know NCAA violation...They did it for money of course...Everything about this story is all twisted up in money...The NCAA suspended them for the first 5 games next season, but not for their upcoming Bowl Game...Why not the Bowl Game? Because, it's a BCS game, and the NCAA doesn't want to lose any money they can make off the backs of these players...Who is really going to tune in if Pryor isn't playing...The next best QB for Ohio State is a high school senior...there is no way the NCAA is going to pass up on making big-time Bowl money!

The players most likely felt they needed the money, because they aren't allowed to have jobs...The universities make boat loads off of College Football...They make a shit-ton of money selling merchandise...Are Dayne Crist, and Brady Quinn seeing any money from all the #10 jerseys that get sold...NO! And Pryor isn't getting a dime for all the #2 jerseys sold in Columbus...

Now many say, 'Well those kids are getting a free college education!' Yes they are, and I use to argue the same point...But the cost of that education, doesn't even compare to the money the schools and the NCAA take in from those players busting their asses on the football field...A regular student, can get grants, and academic scholarships, and they are still allowed to get a job and have some cash for beer, and condoms, and whatever else they may need...

There has to be a way to give players a stipend...Just a little something for their efforts, and giving them the ability to have some spending cash, so they don't screw their team by breaking some NCAA rules...Maybe if college players got a stipend, we wouldn't have Heisman winners tainted by allegations of taking money from boosters and agents...Maybe we wouldn't have dumb players trading autographs for tattoos, and trophies for money...

That said, these douchebags at Ohio State knew they were breaking the rules...Some say the penalty was too harsh...Not me, but maybe that's just because I don't like Ohio State...But I'll take them over those ass-hats from Michigan any day! Anyway, they knew what they were doing was wrong...And for some reason, the fact they sold awards off really bothers me...I don't understand how you could just toss aside something commemorating an achievement of yours...And the players who sold their Gold_Pants, that is really bothering me...The Gold Pants are all about tradition, and Ohio State's rivalry with Michigan...Clearly, either these guys don't give a shit about tradition, or they are really desperate for money...

They should have been suspended for the Bowl Game...But as I said, money won't allow that...The NCAA should look in the mirror, and think about giving players a cut for what they do...But most likely, money won't allow that either...The schools and the NCAA don't want to share their wealth
