Is that a Woody Hayes reference?

(racking my brain trying to remember if Tubby's ever slugged anybody... quite a few of them could have used a smack the past few years LOL)

I'm not an Ohio State fan.

Now that's funny... Bear Bryant coached at Kentucky and stole their football mojo IIRC.

what's your educational 'story'? Did you go to Meeechigan for undergrad or grad? Their graduate schools are great, for sure.

I didn't realize the level of hatred for Michigan fans by a lot of Ohioans b/f I moved to Cleveland.
Just finished grad school there a couple of months ago.

BTW, the quote in my sig is from one of RFS's favorite movies, I think.

Yeah, it's weird, he knew he'd always be second fiddle to Adolph Rupp...

Basketball at UK is legendary but the flip side of that coin is that I think it's the primary reason that UK football has been so bad for so long (Bear Bryant is a perfect example). It's interesting, tolerance for the UK football program's ineptitude is waning as the UK basketball team's struggles grow. I think there is a definite causal relationship there.

Now hold up a sec RFS. In one thread you're Brad Pitt, in another you're George Clooney. Which is it?

Wow. Talk about dives. That was an Olympic level dive by France to "earn" a penalty shot.

True.

Nice goal to tie by the Italians to tie this up. Quite a start to this final.

Well, they're even now, as France deserved a penalty there but didn't get one.

Too bad France had to get scored on b/f they started playing again.
