Stop with the comparisons Ohio

I am getting very tired of people always trying to compare there school to Ohio State. What Ohio State has been able to do consistently for years now is flat out amazing. Jim Tressel is a class guy and a great coach. What he does is fantastic. They do not have bad years because of him. Now with that being said, people need to stop getting caught up with what OSU is doing. Notre Dame for example. A fan of Notre Dame is going to tell you that they are going to be just fine next year. Just fine to ND and Michigan are 8 or 9 win seasons IMO. Winning 11 or 12 games a year is un heard of and anyone who does not do this is not trash. Sure everyone is working to be like OSU but it takes time and a little luck to get there. People expect schools to get there overnight when that is simply not the case. In the 90's OSU had troubles. It happens.
For the people who know nothing about the schools and just look at box scores, please just shut up. If you don't watch Michigan football consistently, no one is going to care about your opinion of them. Same goes for any other school in the country.

I get tired of Ohio State fans thinking any team worse than theirs is terrible, and "irrelevant."

Agreed.

1970 to 2001 does exist, contrary to what some believe. Some I said, not all. Skip the part where you all flip out.

That being said its not just isolated to Ohio State. If you went to another state you would get the same kind of thing going on.

Probably should grow thicker skin?

The ignorance on this site(and in the general population) is almost sickening, you just gotta roll with the punches, and you can take that to the bank.

I don't care about grammar; I care about winning football games.

Were I the grammar police I would care, but I'm not in this instance. I also could have pointed out that Coincidence isn't a sentence by itself too but the point was made.

A likely lie, it only takes a few seconds to correct errors.

I just had to throw a "This" at Cinci's quote....grammatically correct and thematically correct. And it takes a big man to admit it.

this was not even aimed at Ohio state fans. Its everyone who constantly compares a team to them. Also I am glad people with nothing to say consistently point out grammar mistakes.
