OSU is truly obsessive about the “The” in their name. It’s a bit annoying to those of us at the other state universities in Ohio. But we pretty much just ignore them.
Especially since everyone knows the Green Bay Packers are America’s Team…what else can you say about America’s only major league sports franchise owned by its fans? Packer fans go to bed at night knowing their team won’t be located in Indianapolis when we wake up in the morning.

Still some sanity in our courts. Both requests were turned down.

This says all that that needs to be said about the sanity in college sports (Football & Basketball).

Simply more proof that OSU fans take the prize for being the most obnoxious.
A group of OSU football fans was banned from not one but two sports bars where I lived in Florida.

That’s as bad as the Cowboys – “America’s Team”. Unbridled arrogance.

Will we have to pay royalties to refer to “Ohio, the State”?
