Gotta Love Those Buckeyes

Busy again today, but I thought I'd hit y'all with a little soul music because that is, after all, what inspired so much of the hippity-hop that serves as the soundtrack to my life.

Also, I received this comment today: "Michigan fans are fucking gay." The author of such a smart, compassionate, and insightful comment did not list a website, but he left his name as "Joe" and his name appears to be Joe Fetrow. He was responding to my answers from the third BlogPoll Roundtable. If you read this and this, you'll see that someone with the same name who appears to know how to use at least two internets--this one and The Sporting News's--is from Cincinnati, OH. And he doesn't think very highly of those warm-weather-bred athletes. (Because, you know, it's not like warm-weather teams ever win any football games of note.) I wonder if it's the same Joe Fetrow. Could it be? And I also wonder if he was upset with me, a Michigan fan, because he is either a supporter of or parolee from The Minimum Security Prison and Home for the Mentally Challenged. If it's the latter--and let's be honest, I hope it is--then "Michigan fans are fucking gay" will be that much better. Only a "graduate" from (the) Ohio State (joke of a) University would think of something so witty. And to post it in enemy territory? Well, that demonstrates a courage that he must have learned from Andy Bosworth Katzenmoyer (sorry, I have a hard time keeping track of the biggest busts in history) while sitting next to "The Big Cat" in a class like AIDS Awareness. In college (if calling the joke of a University that doesn't degrade the term). Maybe a Michigan Man stole dude's girlfriend? Regardless, thanks for the feedback, Joe. I always appreciate it when people take the time to acknowledge my work.

And now for that throwback music I promised:
- The Ohio Players, "What's Going On"

- King Curtis, "Instant Groove"

- Ernie Hines, "Our Generation"
