PENN STATE FANS ARE FUNNY. KINDA.
10.29.07
Keg-pressing superdrunk Ryan sent in this photo of a Penn State fan's feelings at Saturday night's steamrolling at the hands of Ohio State. I'm not sorry to say that I missed the game, because there's only one weekend a year where it's very nearly legal to wear a mask and jump out of doorways to sexually assault scantily clad women, and I wasn't about to miss it. However, Orson Swindle gives his recap thusly:
Ohio State remains ploddingly, predictably excellent, and it isn’t their fault that no one likes them for it besides the people of the Sovereign People’s Republic of Uzbuckistan. Ohio State’s excellence has transcended the interesting. Losing one game in the past two years will do that to a team, but so will going into a festive, decidedly amped Beaver Stadium and bringing the demo team with you.
If you did watch the game, skip this paragraph unless you’re a Buckeye fan who… can’t get enough masturbatory praise… following a weekend of asskicking in the correct direction. The results of the game never teetered for longer than a suspenseful minute or two in any direction but Ohio State’s. Time of possession: 37 minutes, 52 seconds. This was heavyweight boxing, with efficient and impressive control from minute one.
So Ohio State is pretty good, probably even a deserving #1. Their fans? Still asshats. But, as an olive branch to the Morlocks of Buckeye Nation, I invite them to do something as remotely humorous/marginally witty as this sign, and I'll see if I can't soften my tone. If I learned anything from Rocky IV, it's that we all can change.

Joe Buck > Woody Hayes > Jim Tressel > OSU asshats…but Woody did have a mean left hook.
You asked them to be creative which in turn means they have to think for themselves.. you are now going to get a flood of "Buckeyes #1" signs
Isn't that sign more of a celebration of Jim Tressel?
I would've thrown Jim Tressel's carcass on the Ohis State bus.
I guess Jim isn't crossing that Rainbow Bridge anytime soon.
Yeah, that Ohio St. Powerhouse….playing those top notch Big 10 programs and perennial BCS powerhouses like Youngstown St, Akron, and Kent St. . . oh yeah….
Not as funny as the guy calling in to talk to OJ and telling asking if he killed Bill Walsh.
fuck osu.
thats all i have right now
if a crazed gunman took out a bunch of Buckeye fans at the 'Shoe on a Saturday afternoon, would anyone REALLY be that sympathetic? I mean OSU fans themselves would be more upset if the game didn't continue….losing fellow Bucknuts is a small price to pay for witnessing the gayness that is 'script Ohio'
The only way I would be more impressed is if there was video of Tressel eating Barbaro.
c'mon.. what about "Ann Arbor is a whore"
That's a classic clever line by us clever OSU fans.

The jealousy is thick in here, and enjoyable
What I learned from Rocky IV is that whatever Drago hits, he destroys.
Best thing about Rocky IV? Only the second greatest montage song of all time!!!

P.S. I love all the haters. Fear the sweater vest, bitches.
fear the nut!!!!!
Two points here:
1. The vet in charge of Barbaro's surgery (Dean Richardson) got his DVM from tOSU, so it is true that a Buckeye had some hand in his death
2. Florida is the best 3-loss team out there
That is all.
Also, I hate the whole "[favorite sports team]-nation" thing (I'm looking at you Red Sawx fans) but that Uzbuckistan thing is pretty damn funny.
I get a chill up my spine whenever I see Michael J. Fox. He is fighting an uphill battle against Parkinsons and is one of the good guys. Let's keep him in our thoughts.
I don't care what you think of me as a fan……#1 BABY!!!!!
Um, over a horse? From, what was it, May of 2006 and then again this January? It is almost November, right? Two questions….
1) So?
2) Really. So? A fuckin' horse?
The Shitany Lions fans are very topical. And their team was very much demolished. Oh, and congrats to Jim Tressel for the murder of the horse. I hope the head is hanging in his office.

I learned a few things from Rocky 4 as well:
1. Isolated log cabins in Russia come fully equipped with tanning beds
2. Exhibition matches are so vitally important, contestants must fight to the death if necessary.
3. When your countryman is in the fight of his life, ditch him halfway through and start cheering for his opponent.
4. The best way to work through a death of a friend is to take a drive in your camaro with cheesy 80's music playing.
5. The arms race, SALT treaties, and the G8 summits were all bullshit. All that was needed was a good boxing match.
6. If you want a good laugh, give the mic to the guy who just got punched in the head 500 times and listen to what he has to say.
