Better, and worse at the same time.

Not that I have a dog in this hunt, but
All right, it's not like this is in any way sanctioned or approved by the university. To be fair, shirts with the exact same punchline have shown up at both Iowa and LSU, and we'd imagine that those universities (and the vast majority of their fans) are every bit as disgusted and embarrassed by their T-shirts.

I guess I should have said Buckeys, as I know it's not the school, but the fans.

Ah, generalizing an entire set of fans based on the activities of someone who made a tasteless shirt. Got it.

I understand you're a Michigan fan... now I see that all Michigan fans like making illogical generalizations of people with whom they disagree.

How do you know it's bad grammar? Maybe it's just listing them in order.

You know. They want to do both.

Had this scandal occurred at OSU, I'm quite certain Michigan fans would have been very classy about the way they handled it.

And FYI, when the story first broke, guess who Penn State played that week? OSU. Guess whose fans didn't misbehave or rub the scandal in Penn State's face? OSU.

That being said, I thought the shirt was funny. I'd never buy it, but I laughed. I happened to be at a Michigan party last night for their game, and never heard a Michigan fan do anything but laugh when the shirt was brought up.

I think where OSU stands and where UofM stand on the issue are exactly the same. We both hate each other and the scandal happened at Penn state. A random third party. But OSU fans were the ones to build/buy the shirt. Or, maybe it was just some random T-Shirt guy who knew OSU fans would buy it, when UofM fans wouldn't? I don't know. But I'm not sure how having the scandal happen at OSU compares. Unless you mean that if an OSU coach had been raping kids, we would have made jokes about it. If that's what you are saying. . . that's a pretty big stretch. I'd like to think that even OSU would have enough class to not go there. Well, except that they did. . . .

I'm glad that OSU fans behaved the week the story broke. But, should that really be a badge of honor?!? That would just kind of, go without saying. Wouldn't it? That's like saying "The story is so sad that even OSU fans showed class"!

I've seen your friends. I'm not surprised they laughed. :-)

Actually, I know that the shirt could have just as easily been printed with Michigan bashing OSU. But, it wasn't. Which to me, says something about the general perception of OSU fans.

I think it was cool that two of our better players got in trouble recently and were kept home for our opening game. Against last year's national champs. A lot of schools wouldn't have. They'd have suspended them from their game against Miami of Ohio or something. A game where they weren't needed. Go Blue. Actually being classy!

I'm going to saying you're baiting.

I know you, and you're not this stupid.

In fact, few human beings have ever achieved the level of stupidity and arrogance that it takes to write the bullshit above. Paris Hilton comes to mind. Sean Penn is another.

Not you.

Thus, let me respond with: "Well crafted Troll."
