However, your point is well seen.h2oville rocket wrote:No argument- just kind of silly to post that they don't have a program or if they do its crappy when the info is right there.

Ohio State and thoughts on BG
I can see where he was coming from in calling them crappy, though. I have family that have graduated from OSU, none recently, and all of them have said that OSU's education school, at least in the undergrad level, is where students go when they drop out of another program at OSU. Apparently that has changed, but that has been the reputation there.h2oville rocket wrote:No argument- just kind of silly to post that they don't have a program or if they do its crappy when the info is right there.

What's lame about this?Bleeding Orange wrote:If you didn't go to OSU, then what, pray tell, are you? And don't give me any of that garbage about going to OSU for grad school. That's lame.tekekini wrote:LOL @ referring to me as a bandwaggoner..mmisbg wrote:I'm glad that this thread got back to the original conversation...well, except for the posts by our friend Tekekini.
I was an OSU fan when I was younger. However, unlike most people on here, my reasons for turning on them had little to do with football.
I went to BGSU because it had the best program in Ohio for what I wanted to study. At the very least, their program was on par with one or two other programs as the best, neither or which was OSU. Anybody in my field, not located in Columbus, will tell you the same thing. Then, I joined the National Guard. For six years, I went down to Columbus and got treated like I was getting an inferior education because I didn't go to OSU. Truth was, I didn't even consider going to OSU.
I wasn't the only guy in my guard unit who turned on them. Almost every member of my unit, who didn't go to OSU, did the same thing. They KSU guys, the Akron guys, the UT guys......almost all of them.
I have found that, for the most part, it isn't the OSU Alumni who are the problem. I've also found that, for the most part, the true OSU fans are not the problem either. It is the students (who are caught up in the Columbus hype) and the bandwagoners (like Tekekini). Their arrogance goes beyond football. They think that OSU is the best at everything, even when it is not.
That is why I hate OSU, and refuse to root for them under any circumstances. And for the record, I am not a Michigan fan. I have never been a Michigan fan. I never will be a Michigan fan. The only exceptions to this rule are the days that Michigan plays OSU. And people can say all they want about Michigan being just as bad. I trust my own experiences, and I've spent plenty of time at U of M as well. I just don't see it.
There are bonehead fans everywhere. They exist for every school/team. They just don't exist in the quantity that they do for OSU.

You're an idiot.
This is a question that I would like to hear most OSU fans try to answer with a straight face.
Let's see if I can right this thread...

The reason why I make the accusation is due to the way that he talks about OSU. You can tell that his motivation for being an OSU fan is due to the hype centered around them. He doesn't talk about OSU as though he has been this childhood fan that roots for them through and through. He talks about them as though they are superior to everybody else.zeket10 wrote:I never knew you were a bandwagoner if you liked a team as a child grew up and didn't go to your dream school but still root for them. Man my life is a lie!
If their football team posted a few 6-6 seasons, we would probably never hear from him again.
This isn't to spawn some sort of discussion about how that would never happen. It is to make the point that if it did, he his scarlet and gray blood would run dry.

I have been going to OSU games with my dad (season ticket holder) since I was 6 or 7 which is when I started paying attention to football and knew what it was about. I have been there for the 6-6 years and the 7-5 years. They were the Frye and Herbie years and a little bit of Bellissari some years down the road. I never bailed after losing to UM so many times.
damn, 2002 was the first year in my lifetime they had played for a championship and I was a fan WAY before that. I grew up 40 minutes from campus. I have been right in the thick of it since birth.
Oh thats right, you know everything about me though so I guess I am making it all up
So what if I talk about them as if they are superior...It is an extra exciting time. Hell they are in the title game for the 2nd year in a row and third time in 6 years..Who the f**k else would be more superior?
People who are fans, defend their favorites or talk about them. It's is what people do.
and since when was going to grad school a lame excuse for anything?
Keep making yourself look stupid. You are doing a good job of it thus far.
Don't you get it? When you get on here and rant and rave about your trips with your dad, your 60K income, you massive house.....nobody has to believe any of it. Unless you want to host an Ay Ziggy BBQ in your back yard, nobody has any way to verify a thing you say. Truth be told, the more you hype it up, the less likely people are to believe it.
And through it all, you've never produced an answer to a simple question that has been prompted to you: If you love OSU so much, then why didn't you do your undergrad there? If you did your masters there, then OSU probably had an undergrad program that would have suited you.
Bottom line, you are a bandwagoner. You are the type of OSU fan that makes true OSU fans shake their heads.
If this thread should prove anything, it is that most people on this forum would like OSU if it weren't for people like you. Nearly every person that has attempted to answer the question from the original post has responded with the same thing. It is people like you that drive others away from rooting for OSU.

AGAIN...you are an idiot who thinks he knows everything about everyone.
I HAVE mentioned this before and I guess I will mention it again. I went to undegrad at BG because of the smaller class sizes..I prefer to learn in the small class environment. The professors are more available to you in that setting. That is the only reason. No other.
I can do the OSU graduate program because I can do it at night. After work.
I never said I had a huge house. I only said I had a house a nice 1100 square foot, 2 bedroom 1.5 bath house. Hardly huge. 60Kis not a lot. 100,00 income is a lot. 60 is average.
YOU people are the only ones who keep bringing that s**t up, not me.
You don't have to validate anything if you do not want to. I dont care. I don't have to prove anything to you. I don't know you and I dont give a s**t about you. You dont know me and never will.
You sir, are the one who doesn't get it.
You don't have a clue. You are nothing but a jealous crybaby (I mean you must be jealous, your the only one who still brings up the house and income). You are the only one who cares about it.
I guess no one is allowed to be excited about their team. Hey BG fans, you better not cheer too loudly about your bowl game or you will be considered a bandwagoner.
If you don't get it by now, you never will. I talk down on you guys ONLY because of all of the constant, unneccessary OSU bashing on a BG board. I dont even know why you dumb asses talk about OSU so much on here. I do not participate inany of the other non OSU threads but you dumb shits just can't stop it can you?
Your jealousy leads to the need to make you feel better about yourself by nitpicking at everything OSU does in a negative way. If you guys weren't so stupid, you would realize that I just like to ruffle your feathers and get you all worked up because of your moronic comments.
I can tell you all of this and I know that you still won't stop. You want me to leave, I have told you how to keep me from posting and you don't listen. That is because you do not get it. It doesn't make me a bandwagoner. If you had normal conversations I would participate normally.
However, your conversations are a joke, so I make a joke out of them. It is simple.
You're still an idiot.
Now your an idiot looking for a free meal. If I hosted an Ay Ziggy BBQ, YOU would not be invited. I don't let idiot's on my property.mmisbg wrote: Unless you want to host an Ay Ziggy BBQ in your back yard, nobody has any way to verify a thing you say. .
I wouldn't consider others an idiot. I thnk by now, most of them know I just like to give them a hard time. I can't say the same for you.
If I was a bandwaggoner, I sure as f**k wouldn't be a Dolphins fan. But I am. I know I have mentioned that on here before.
Woo hoo for our first win!
