OT Cavs Game
I was at a Cavaliers game last week and thought it was somewhat flattering that when they want the crowd to boo during a free throw by the opposing team they flashed the Michigan logo. I turned to my buddy who is a buckeye fan and said, "seems a bit obsessive." He agreed. He told me they sometimes put Desmond striking "the pose" up to get them to boo. If it were me I wouldn't want to remember that. Sure it gets them to boo but seems desperate. Anyway, it gave me a good laugh.
Go Blue today! Beat the Badgers x2

the night before the OSU/UM game in 06. They've used that graphic for a long time. I made sure to wear my Michigan gear to piss everyone off...my wife was all nervous when we were walking to our car in the parking deck and all the asshole Buckeye fans were screaming at me and honking their horns. I just laughed at them. Homos.

They could also put up words with more than two syllables, but I believe the goal is to anger them, not confuse them into silence.

Where they put the Lions on the screen to encourage fans to boo.

and i've been to quite a few cavs games. they show steelers and bengals logos to entice booing during free throws, as well.
i've been surrounded by blohio state fans my whole life, and i'm pretty sure they've earned their recent "shit-talking" status.
i also graduated from akron business school and i like reading this blog- so take it easy on bashing the OH-IQ. unless you're just talking about their fans, then by all means...

I will absolutely never take it easy on the state of Ohio and the IQ of the people I encounter there.

always cheer when they flash the UM logo. We get many dirty looks.
They alternate between UM, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Boston Red Sox (they can't use the Yankees, because the Yankees are LeBron's favorite team).
