OH NO, just wait till the ACLU finds out about this.
OSU get ready for some protests or sanctions or something.

That sounds like a Reebock commercial.

Funny, I thought it went like this...
I am 4-1, I am four and one.
I can't do everything, but I can sure Beat Michigan.
That which I can do, I ought to do, ya know like Beat Michigan.
And what I ought to do, by the grace of God, is Beat Michigan...Again.

Rack it. Reminds me of:
This is my rifle.
There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My rifle is my best friend.
It is my life.
I must master it as I must master my life.
My rifle, without me, is useless.
Without my rifle, I am useless.
I must fire my rifle true.
I must shoot straighter than my enemy,
who is trying to kill me.
I must shoot him before he shoots me.
I will.
My rifle and myself know that what counts in war,
is not the rounds of fire,
the noise of our burst,
nor the smoke we make.
We know it is the hits that count.
We will hit.
My rifle is human, even as I, because it is my life.
Thus, I will learn it as a brother.
I will learn its weaknesses,
its strengths,
its parts,
its accessories,
its sights and its barrel.
I will ever guard it against
the ravages of weather and damage.
I will keep my rifle clean and ready,
even as I am clean and ready.
We will become part of each other.
We will.
Before God I swear this creed.
My rifle and myself are the defenders of my country.
We are the masters of our enemy.
We are the saviors of my life.
So be it, until there is no enemy,
but Peace.

Right, thanks for the clarification.
Apparently didn't work against PSU either.
But then again, it hasn't worked against:
KState
Colorado
Kansas (Kansas, are you serious, 13-3, are you a D II school)
Texas
New Mexico
Nice attempt at Big 12 vs Big 10 smack but get a team first.

God and Woody were in line at the porta-johns during the 4th quarter. Too much pre-game.Adelpiero wrote:I guess the prayer didn't work against Tejas.
