Why do you hate Ohio?

Submitted by BigTenBurrito on

Erik Swenson, we'll see you in 3 years. Trey Burke, I'm sure you'll be a great NBA pro. Florida's OL, we have enough growing pains of our own for one calendar year. This is the week of the 'THE GAME'

I spent a summer between my freshman and sophomore year there. Everywhere I went I was referred as the 'Michigan' guy as if that's something to be ashamed of. That is all it took for me to forever understand the magnitude of this game. We will win this game, simply because we have to. 

It's been two years, but I still remember the feeling when Avery intercepted that pass to end it in the Big House. Must have had my arms in the air for 2 straight minutes before snapping out of my euphoric daze. I crave this feeling again.

 

Everyone enjoy their holiday because come Saturday, the boys in Maize and Blue will leave it all on the field!

 

GO BLUE!

I grew up in Ohio. I just hate Ohio. Everything about Ohio makes me want to puke. (Minus my family and friends) I get angry thinking about buckeyes and red and Brutus and ALL THE THINGS. I hate Ohio.

... then I grew up. Without OSU we don't have this rivalry. I refuse to stoop to nonsense related to tatoos etc. Sure, I hated OSU and Woody when I was a kid. Geeze, he went for 2 when up 50-14 (in 1968)... but that made 1969's win so much sweeter.  I want Blue to win more than anything, but I don't hate OSU. I love Michigan.

I hate everything about the fans. The stupid o h!...i o! Chant i guess is just to remind them how to spell. I live in ohio and everyone here calls us ttun or scUm but call them ohio and watch the wire cross. I hate they call the coach urbzzz like they've been best of friends for life.

There is nothing wrong with the state. It is part of this great country that we love.

I don't hate the university, it is a fine institution.

I don't even hate the team, in fact I usually respect them and their ability. However, I do love to beat them because of their FANS. They are the worst in the B1G, maybe in the entire country. They don't know how to win or lose graciously. Can't wait to hear what the Rutgers and Maryland fans have to say after their first trip to Columbus.

Because Jim Tressel tainted the series by cheating for a decade and because Buckeye fans still worship him and act like he did nothing wrong.



Because Urban Meyer is a liar and a hypocrite.



Because Ohio State is a glorified community college.

-When I visit my relatives there water smells like eggs and leaves a thin layer of film on your skin. I almost threw up trying to brush my teeth with it.

-They are dick heads to Michigan fans.

-Saw a pic on my twitter that OSU fans were pissing on the Michigan equipment truck and they all took great pride in it and retweeted it.

-Ohio face

-Some of them actually believe that the wasteland called the Toledo Strip was a better acquistion than the U.P.

EDIT: I share this account and we just posted at the same time.

OSU and Michigan are two sides of the same coin...A member of my immediate family is also treated for a rare form of cancer at OSU, which is one of two places in the country who have an expert on the subject, so that makes it hard to hate the place.

The Internal Veternary Specialist who saved my dog Maize's life went to Ohio State. They're people too. Some of them are even pretty good people.

That said, some of them are this guy:

That's 2 grown men. Who do that. On purpose (I suppose). You can hate those guys.

Those are the worst type of fans. To be fair, even a lot of buckeye fans hate those tools. One particular friend of mine, who is a buckeye fan, absolutely cannot stand them and he gets mad when they're shown on TV so much.

Hate?  Eh-  Since they have made a concerted effort to cheat since Clarett I am more disgusted and have never felt hate.  When they had Woody, Bruce and Cooper I respected Ohio State and wanted to beat them but I can't say I hated them.  Once Tresell came on board and the acceptance of cheating as part of the culture there...they can have it but they will not get hate from me.  I mostly look down on Ohio State

Plain and simply, my dad loved Michigan, so I loved Michigan. My dad hated OSU, and I hated OSU. 

The next level of hatred I feel now has grown throughout my teenage years. Constantly getting beaten by them has been the hardest thing in the world. Having to live with that for an entire year. We are not as good as Ohio. That is the worst. Taking a back seat to some cheaters, while this should be our conference. THE WORST.

Plus they are all so damn ugly.

Just watching them on TV facing another team gets me pissed off. 

[EDIT]: THEY ARE TRYING TO STEAL OUR GIRL!

First MMB trip of mine to Columbus. Got off the bus and the first dude I spotted near the rehearsal field was a chubby, shirtless neckbeard waving around a sign that read "RICH ROD = POOP."

That's all I really needed to see to make up my mind. Before that, Ohio was mostly Cedar Point and the smell of cow ass. Okay, fine...WGI finals in Dayton is pretty cool.

That Toledo Valley, worth a war dammit

They tore down our banner

They cheat, and don't care - see Tressel being placed on shoulders

In 1973 they played to tie and stole our Bowl game

because G-d hates Cleveland. You wanna go against the Almighty?

Simply put: their fans are asshats.  They have lots of shitty fans, and lots of good ones who don't police the shitty ones.  It makes for an unpleasant experience going to that wretched hive of scum and villainy.

It has been said that the opposite of love is indifference. I don't necessarily hate Ohio, but am simply indifferent to Ohio. If the Shoe were to be swallowed whole by the Earth, I would not flinch but instead merely wonder when the river nearby would claim this real estate as a tidal basin. If their fans were to be beamed off the face of the Earth, I would simply wonder who would truck our fresh fruits and vegetables across the Eastern Great Lakes region. If their team were to tear down our banner again, I would only ask the Dave Brandon insist that they make up for it by stitching the replacement with a loom made from their team bus.
