I live in Ohio, right in the middle of their self proclaimed "Buckeye Country". I enjoy living here for the most part, but the Ohio State football fans are some people I don't really like too much. Granted there are some notable exceptions I have encounted, they are THE team for overconfidence and a false sense of superiority.
I have lived in Ohio for six years now and I've never caught the bug of OSU football. They are the most obnoxious group of fans as a collective whole that I have ever encountered (and I still wish I could think of a better word than obnoxious). Well, a message board, courtesy of The Fanhouse, definitely just made my day. It is a Buckeyes message board and the topic is whether people have gotten over the loss to Florida. Ten days have now passed and some still have their sense of pride (or arrogance) and others have become humble, shamed fans. Here are some personal favorites...
BuckNatty123: I haven't even visited this forum since the 7th. Haven't read the college football section of si.com or espn.com since then either.
OSUBuckeyes7: I graduated from OSU, I will always be a Buckeye, but I will never get over that loss
bucknut4life: over it? no way at all...but i can say that i dont have flashbacks of certain plays anymore..honestly for about a week or so, random points of the day i would see troy getting sacked..
biggman76: The pain will be there forever
ramatam: I'm as bad now as I was after the game...We were embarassed, humiliated & disgraced on national tv. You can NEVER get over that if you have passion about the scarlet & grey.
more buckeye sadness, mourning (and still some celebratory notions) here
