First, let me say I was an Ohio State, or a Buckeye Fan for many years. I was born one, had everything Scarlet and Gray, I even did the Bike ride of New York City, the Five Borough Ride, with a tape player on my bike, playing music by the Ohio State Marching Band. We spent part of our honeymoon, 50 years ago, at an Ohio State game in Columbus.
And then, Woody left, I did not like the way they got rid of Earle Bruce, will never know why they hired John Cooper, and, most of all the FANS became completely arrogant. Obnoxious and arrogant.
I dropped off of the Fan list at Ohio State.
And now, they somehow win a National Championship, against all odds. It has happened, they just could not win the title, now, primarily the fans have to belittle the Oregon team they beat. Facebook and a flood of bumper stickers etc., are flooding the airwaves. "Our Third String Quarterback beat YOUR Heisman trophy winner," is just an example. They could not win, anything, graciously.
I have never heard anyone refer to an Ohio State fan as ..... gracious ..... that is a shame, a great institution .... but such arrogant fans .... many of whom probably could not spell the name of the institution .....
