OK, lets hear from everyone, tell me who your favorite team is and why. Which school had the best game day tradition, which school has the best stadium, so on and so.

You can guess as to which team I am for by my screen name. More about that to follow.

Im not sure I can have this discussion with you. :-) I am thouroughly convinced that we will NEVER ever ever in a million years see eye to eye. GO WOLVERINES!

 

(For those of you who might be unaware of what I am referring to, the intensity of the rivalray between the University of Michigan (wolverines) and Ohio St. University (the buckeyes that the OP refers to in his screen name) in American-style football is on par with virtually any other rivalry in any other sport anywhere. It is an intense, feirce rivalry where entire seasons have often been hinged on the one game that these two teames meet eachother every year.)

Your right there not in a million years, but we can agree to disagree, you guys had your run when we had Cooper now it is our turn. There isn't to much I like about "That school up north" and I sure you can say the same thing.

I agree with you on one thing it is without a doubt the most hated, and I think I can say this with confidence, in all of sports professional and amateur. It can and has made me cry many times it has made me sick to my somach as well. But these past 7 years it has all been worth it and I don't see that changes.

I am sorry but what is up with those helmets...................yuk

 The streak ends in November. Carr did us all a favor and retired, which is nice cause now I can stop calling for his job. Wanna see the Fun 'n' Gun? Watch Michigan next year. :-)

As for the other thing... see the other thread.

Go West Virginia!  I hate that we are going to lose Pat White and Steve Slaton eventually.  Then we will burrow our heads in shame.  But go KU!

 To be honest, I don't really pay attention to spring ball. #1, finding out information about Big Ten spring ball in the heart of ACC country is difficult at best. #2, the baseball season has begun man! I've got other things on my mind!

Top sports rivalries:

1. Yankees-Dead Sox

2. Duke-Carowhina (UNC-Chapel Hill)

3. OSU-Michigan

 

I always try to watch when these teams play each other.

 Kids leaving the program is expected, in one off-season, the program went from a traditional smash-mouth, Big-Ten style of play, to a Fun 'n' Gun. This season might be a bit of a struggle, as everyone adjusts, but that's hard to avoid.

As for the grades, I'm not sure an OSU fan can talk to ANY school about football's players grades, much less Michigan... ;-)
