OT: witty banter with rivals
I could have been hearing things, but I thought for sure ABC played "Who's that Lady?" by the Isley Brothers when they went to an early commercial in the ohio-STAEE game. Being our rivals, I enjoyed the subtle mocking of the participants. Maybe Desmond was in the truck.
With that, what's the best back-handed or subtle jab at a rival you've ever seen/heard or said? Playing golf with a Buckeye friend (some of them are okay), a semi drove by and honked. Another friend immediately turned to the Buckeye and asked, "classmate of yours?"
There have to be some entertaining exchanges out there. Please stay classy. Witty is always best.
Go Blue!
EDIT: This was exactly the Monday morning entertainment I was hoping to read. Thanks all.
Happy Thanksgiving, Go Blue, Beat Ohio!

Dantonio has the same amount of Rose Bowl appearances as Ron Zook.

I thought it was damn funny a few years back when Staee was beating OSU in the B1G title game and the announcers called the Spartans "little brother" during what was their best triumph in a long time.

Yesterday we had a family gathering. My wife comes from an entire family of Spartans. Her uncle, easily the most inflammatory of all of them, basically asked me to justify how Harbaugh could even be considered as good of a coach as Dantonio.
"It took Dantonio 4 years to win more than 9 games in a season at MSU. Harbaugh has at least two chances to do that in year one at Michigan."
I set the trap for him to respond with "yeah, but it's easier to win at Michigan." Of course he took it. I then responded with "yep, even after our 130+ year nadir as a program, it's still a better place to coach than MSU."

At which point, he stared blankly for a few moments before saying, "What's nadir mean?"

not football related, but I watched the NASCAR race today to see Jeff Gordon's final race. During driver introductions one guy (not Danica) had the song "She Drives me Crazy" by the Fine Young Cannibals. I chuckled.

I'd say it's a big case of buyer's remorse.

At MSU listening to an MSU band member talking on the phone about how some OSU fans robbed their bus. But nah, its cool, they apparently got their stuff back.

Looks like another post started in one thread and ended up in another one. What a bizarre glitch.

....we were walking past a bunch of USC fans and one dude was ribbing the UM fans fliing by.
As I approached he said "it's all cool, we forgive you for Webber"
I replied "and we forgive you for OJ"
Everyone laughed.

I was playing Brood War online. At the time, my user name was something like "goblue313" and I joined a match hosted by "acrossthefield79". We got ready to play ball, and he posts down in chat:
"rr"
I instantly replied with:
"tressel"
Very cool story, bro.

Couple years back I was referred by my Physician to a specialist, some "ologist" or other, and after taking my history for several minutes he stops to write and I glance around the office and see his diplomas displayed.
Well, when I see where he got his degrees I stand up as if to leave and say "There's been some kind of a mistake - I thought I'd been referred to a Dr of human medicine!"
Without even looking up he replies "Ah, you must've gone to Michigan!? Muck Fichigan!"
He was osu undergrad, msu medical school. Needless to say, I didn't take any pills he prescribed! ;-)

but in the late 1990's when I was living and working in Columbus the Friday morning before the game I hijacked the company's PA system and blared a Bob Ufer clip (the one that refered to the Buckeyes tearing down the M-Club banner and that they would pay a price for that), followed by The Victors. It went out to every office and hallway in the building.

You went to OSU?
Cool. What grade did you get in basket weaving?
You went to OSU?
Cool. So did you end up marrying your first cousin or your second cousin?
You went to OSU?
Oh man, you're so lucky. Is it true that if you put your diploma up on your dashboard that you're allowed to park in handicapped spots?

He needed a crown on an upper molar. I had the lab make two crowns. One was normal, the other I asked for it to look like our helmet. He could not do the helmet, but gave me this.
I told my buddy that I was testing out a new dental camera and took some pics. I cemented the regular crown, but as the cement was setting, I showed him this picture. The look on his face was priceless!

When I find out someone is a Sparty or Buckeye, my response is, "Oh, I'm sorry. I'll speak slower."
