Sweet - thanks Six Zero!  Great work as always.  Going on my desktop right now to annoy all my OSU fan coworkers.

 

Somebody ought to put together a wallpaper of Denard as Moses (Or Moses in a #16 jersey) parting the Red Sea.  Seems appropriate.

... for a Facebook cover version, for both this and any future wallpapers?  The wallpaper just doesn't fit properly in the facebook cover section, and I'd love to put this up on my timeline as my cover.

Great work though, love it!!

That by the time I create the image in the appropriate size it'll already be Friday afternoon or something. My schedule's tight, so I'll see want I can do but no promises.
You can help, since I'm not much of a Facebook guy-- any idea on the pixel proportions??

Thanks for listening to my request and getting the facebook one done; keep up the great work on the Blockhams, it's my fave webcomic! 

Are you going to do these types of things each week or only for the B1G schedule and ND from here on out?

I have to say that the Friday Rough today could be another wallpaper unto itself.  Also, love the Blockhams installment from yesterday.  Nice touches, like Tom's parents, Bump peeking in Tom's room, the risque Tom and Pam on bed in the dorm, and the clock in the last panel.

My 9 year-old doesn't throw around "OMG" lightly but she dropped one when she saw this. She's a huge Avengers and Captain America fan. Your layout and character design are solid and your Blockhams drawing style is fantastic.

I don't always use other people's wallpapers on my computer, but when I do, I use Six Zero.
