Do bagpipe bands play the Victors or anything similar in Michigan?

Every bagpipe band here in Columbus ends with Carmen Ohio and the OSU fight song.

My wife has dictated it is time to pass on the hand knit newborn hats you see in my profile pic.

Only problem is not many parents of twins exist here in Columbus. 

If you are expecting twins, lemme know.

I've got an idea, but I lack design skills. If someone thinks this idea has merit, and is able to profit from it, all I ask is for you to send me a link to buy, and maybe a b1g1 free coupon ;p

I was there as a young guy with my Grandfather celebrating his 50th class reunion or something similar. 

As we lost, the majority of the people around me were so old they weren't even paying attention to the game. I screamed at some old man who told me I should have been a Michigan fan. "You old fart, we lost!!"  was more or less what I shouted 

I was probably 10 rows from where Westbrook caught the pass deflection. I had literal nightmares for weeks thinking what if I had launched myself into the field to break it up. (I know not realistic, but dreams are not subject to gravity, etc).

That sucked.

Thought just crossed my mind: does "who's got it better than us" no longer apply, is that a Harbaugh thing, or will it continue post JimH?

I doubted our ability to beat OSU or win it all in 2023 so I'll do the same for 2024 and hope for the same results.

My money would be on OSU v GA in the championship.

As long as west coast/sec teams don't manage to finagle the rankings to avoid December 20/21 on campus games in the north, I'll be happy 

The championship is in Atlanta, so I'll take the path of least resistance and assume GA wins it all using the "we were slighted in 2023" theme as motivation.

While I dislike "natty" used in this way, it's been used by the players, and the official Facebook account of the football team.

I think it's valid use now.

Use of the word 'all' was lazy writing on my part.

Replace it with "most" and I'll stand by it.

I wouldn't mind a SSO model that allowed email from sites such as this to a specific folder in my inbox.

But I'd much rather have post notifications in mgoblog so I'd know when I was referenced or replied to .. 

Though if they implemented that, I'd likely have to change my name to avoid accidental tagging.

Am I the aberration, in that I don't post anything I wouldn't say publicly under my own name on Twitter or Facebook?

I've long been of the opinion all internet content should be traceable back to its source... would effectively eliminate keyboard warriors. 

Additionally,  when I took my current job, the background check very quickly identified 99% of my accounts online, and my employer made it clear anything I post could be grounds for termination. 

They even found this account- very uniquely named 'will' .. no idea how they made that connection but they did.

I'm not that guy, fwiw.

Doing it again tomorrow.

Writing in the sand, and hopefully adding the score after.

Advice on which site to use to optimize this?

I'm ok with this. Record…

I'm ok with this. Record should be indicative of what you've done on the field. Our schedule was poo.

Win the games, and ranking ends up where it should.

I don't gamble, but I want…

I don't gamble, but I want to for this one. I am happy to lose money if we win. I'm not mentally prepared for the ramifications if we lose. Thinking a few hundred bucks in my pocket mights lessen the emotional toll.

Given that I live in Ohio and have never gambled, could one of our resident gambling degenerates advise on the best option to put some money on this game?  Ie. Is there an option where I sign up for a new account, put in $20 of my own money and then some gambling site gives me $150 to put on OSU?

If we win, I'm out $20 bucks. If we lose, or win a nailbiter, I get enough money to go buy a nice dinner and ice cream... Try and lock my wounds.

Forgive my gambling ignorance, if it doesn't work this way. I see adds for free gambling money all the time, never paid any attention up till now.

So conflicted on this advice…

So conflicted on this advice outside of the stadium. Goes totally against the golden rule.

But it works. People are actually afraid to go games in Columbus. 

I'm doing my part and going back to the same condo in South Carolina I went to 2 years ago. I shall dig the same Go Blue in the sand .. and if we win proudly add the score.

If we beat OSU, he gone. 

I…

If we beat OSU, he gone. 

I mean there is reason for unreasonable hope - Aiden Hutchinson, Jake Long, etc.... but his stock is so high and our schedule next year is a nightmare.

Do not get my hopes up.

My BPONE is still strong.

I…

My BPONE is still strong.

I have scheduled a condo in the same unit in South Carolina where I went 2 years ago. 

I can't be here in Columbus if we lose. Waking on the beach with the sound of the ocean with my oldest son is likely the only realistic solution to maintain mental health that afternoon should we lose.

Hopefully I'll be writing the score in the sand again.

Didn't see this posted elsewhere .  Sorry if I missed it ...

When the refs picked up the flag on the running into the kicker, the PSU rusher effectively threw all of his momentum directly into our blocker , who redirected that force... 

This isn't my idea of what blocked into constitutes...

As someone who lives in Columbus, I am conflicted. My kids have learned too many words from buckeye tshirts.

I think you are being overly…

I think you are being overly imaginative.

The coaches wanted to win. PSU thought they could win by taking away the pass. JJ had little time. 

PSU could not stop the run. We kept running.

We also gave away nothing in the playbook for OSU to learn. 

Hopefully JJ's ankle has nothing to do with it. He seemed to be running around ok after the game.

I don't care how we best OSU ... Just that we do. Again. Please.

Youve been waiting for this thread, no?

So 1937 is the official cutoff? 

The question was asked seriously as I googled long enough not to find an answer.  The official website has numerous references to our 11 national championships, which includes the 1902 season.. so the disparity was unclear to me.

Why do you hate your IT department? We work hard , with little to no credit.

Absolutely happened. My dad…

Absolutely happened. My dad would take me to Columbus Clipper games late eighties and early nineties.

There was no player only exit from the locker rooms, so all the fans would wait in that hallway for players to come out. 

I had a card binder with most of the players autographs.  Brian Dorsett was my favorite and signed Acts 16:31.. if you memorized, hed sign a different verse.

One week Deion was sent down fron the Yankees.  We went and I knew he was in there. A loong time after everyone else was gone (players and fans) my dad wanted to leave but I begged him to stay. Eventually he opened the locker room door and came out with a lady friend. 

I walked up and said something to the extent of "Mr Sanders I know your in a slump, but you'll turn it around".. he had a bad night that night.. dont recall the exact stat.

He took my card/s ( dont remember if it was one or many anymore) ripped in half, stated "f*** off kid" tossed the cards in my direction and walked away.

So no, I do not like him.
