I live in the Toledo area now. It is awful. Unless you are a fan of unplanned teenage pregnancies, red neck Ohio State fans, single mothers, or back child support, Toledo is the worst place imaginable to live.

I had a girlfriend in college that was from Adrian. For 'amusement' she would take me to some godforesaken shopping mall in Toledo. Turns out, she was a whore. Fun at the time.

Here is the full
Here is the full
Here is the full quote:
“Until I die, I’m gonna be a Buckeye fan, even though I’m going (to Michigan)," Dawson told the Dayton Daily News. "When we play (OSU), I’m gonna still bring my ‘A’ game. But I love Ohio State.”
Was he also misquoted on the "buckeye fan til I die" portion? Forgive me, but I don't buy this explanation since it is incomplete. It just looks like Dawson is in damage control mode at the moment and blaming the reporter is the path of least resistence. Glad his teammates have already started getting on him though.
The swag is back.
February 7th, 2013 at 11:45 PM |
So you believe a reporter
So you believe a reporter
So you believe a reporter from the state of Ohio, who probably hates Michigan, over the actual guy and his best friend themselves? Both of whom are coming to Michigan? This is the exact kind of attitude that leads to Manti T'eo having a dead girlfriend. People believe too many things that reporters say. I think I'll trust the guy and his best friend over some reporter in Ohio.
Now, I honestly don't know who is telling the truth here. But, there's two sides to every story. And if anyone is going to do mis-reporting, leave it to a guy from Ohio. That all said, Dawson could have said it. But, who is to say which one of them is not telling the 100% truth? Why does the reporter get a pass?

I am a die hard Michigan fan, but if OSU offered me a full ride, my next best offer was Illinois, maybe I would go there too?

If he falls in love with the team, then he'll be as productive as he would have been before we heard all this.
Either way, the excuse in the OP is bulls***. It's just an attempt at spin, but at least he cares enough to try to spin it. That's a lesson in itself.
