34.





Coker won an NC..Davis did not.

Davis was not an Ohio coach.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 02:01 PM

I think he's looking it up and found out I was right....again.


34

Actually I'm reading a story about Texas A&M buying out Coach Fran's contract. It's far more interesting than arguing with a Big Ten homer who thinks Larry Coker was a good coach.

See Tubby Smith.

Make that BigTen RIGHTER.



Larry Coker won an NC...didn't say he was good......but he did win an NC.

Butchy did not.



Miami undefeated 34 straight...not 24.






Lost NC to Ohio State....not LSU.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 02:13 PM

Let this be a lesson to ALL of you.






NEVER take on a predator on his home field.


















NEVER!!!!

Coach Pants 10-16-2007 02:19 PM

Who should take home the Heisman trophy? Here's your chance to decide who goes to New York City.

While Ohio State is familiar with the view from atop, the season's first BCS standings includes many newcomers. BCS standings

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...even excluding yer ancient history..and being up to date...in a nowadays sorta way....






The Ohio State MadDogFighitng Buckeyes are THE NUMBER ONE TEAM IN ALL THE LAND!!





Ah don't thank they're a SECOND team either...although no SECOND team is even second.









Pity.

Coach Pants 10-16-2007 02:36 PM

Look up strength of schedule this year. You might have to scroll down to find Ohio State.

































Keep scrolling































Again.
















































A little more








































And there it is...















Hey. At least they've got a tougher schedule than Hawaii.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 02:38 PM

Hi !!






I saw that...but do enjoy the fact I don't have scroll at all to see who is first in the BCS,USA Toady/Coaches...AP....and yer whatevah.


It's soooo easy to find Ohio State there...at least I think it is.




Don't you?

Oh ...but if it was a SECOND team as number one...then 'nuff woudn't say that...aye?

Mortimer 10-16-2007 02:44 PM

Back to our theme...this from Kim Addonizio:






want a red dress.
I want it flimsy and cheap,
I want it too tight, I want to wear it
until someone tears it off me.
I want it sleeveless and backless,
this dress, so no one has to guess
what's underneath. I want to walk down
the street past Thrifty's and the hardware store
with all those keys glittering in the window,
past Mr. and Mrs. Wong selling day-old
donuts in their café, past the Guerra brothers
slinging pigs from the truck and onto the dolly,
hoisting the slick snouts over their shoulders.
I want to walk like I'm the only
woman on earth and I can have my pick.
I want that red dress bad.
I want it to confirm
your worst fears about me,
to show you how little I care about you
or anything except what
I want. When I find it, I'll pull that garment
from its hanger like I'm choosing a body
to carry me into this world, through
the birth-cries and the love-cries too,
and I'll wear it like bones, like skin,
it'll be the goddamned
dress they bury me in.

South Florida should be number 1. They defeated Auburn and West Virginia. They haven't played a cupcake schedule like OSU.

God!







Now it's outa the SECOND just to find someone to beat the BigTen.


The thing is...they ain't first...no matter how many shoulda's you coulda.


Yer just jealous of our HO-HO's.

Why would I be jealous of a school that has less championships than mine? Who gives a rat's anus about an in-season poll other than the ESPN/Big Ten crowd? Anyone with half a brain knows that the media is slanted towards all things Big Ten.

Troy Smith Heisman winner. As Feminem would say, "LMAO LOL!"

Mortimer 10-16-2007 02:57 PM

I don't even know who your school is!!


At least I'm not ashamed to mention mine!!

Mortimer 10-16-2007 02:59 PM

By the way...we have 6 other Heismans in addition to that one.




How many does your school have?

Whoever they are.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 03:06 PM

I think Mr. Pants is mighty jealous over the accomplishments of the BT and particualrly the NUMBER ONE TEAM IN ALL THE LAND!!!!!



I do notice he won't answer any of my questions as he Shirley knows the answers and would not want to look silly.







But I have studied paranoid schizos and would not make fun of him.....that just wouldn't be me.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 03:10 PM

Interesting:

Coach Pants 10-16-2007 03:11 PM

This Heisman deal is about as ridiculous as caring about who's going to win HOY. Who, outside of Cryin Dispencer and a bunch of girls, would care about an award?

What matters is national championships. Your team has 7. Mine has 11.

Individual achievements are meaningless in a team sport. I'm sure you would love to trade in 6 of those Heismans for 4 NC's, eh? Or do you have a lifetime subscription to Star Magazine?

Coach Pants 10-16-2007 03:11 PM

Again, linking an ESPN article just proves my point. Thanks.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 03:16 PM

I think I prove mine...don't you?


Every point I make are ONLY factoids.....and you brush it off as ....bias??



Shame on you.


I'm guessing your team is Alybamy.





Check you figures...I believe we both have 12.



But we beat the dickens out of you every other way possible....yes...starting with Heismans. I wouls think if you had more then it would become a little more acceptable to you.






Hey...who is Alybamy's coach now?


And where are they ranked???



I don't blame you for not admitting they are your team.

Fact: I made money on the BCS championship by putting money on Florida's nose while you were clutching your Coach Tressel signed sweatervest and crying.

Oh I don't bet.



Hey...does this help?





Greatest Sports Rivalries - Ohio State vs. Michigan
Ohio State and Michigan have been rivals on the football field for over 100 years. The two teams from the Big 10 played each other for the first time in 1897 and have done battle in the final game of the regular season every year since 1935. In 2003, these teams played for the 100th time and the US Congress recognized the rivalry as the greatest in sports history. Overall, the Michigan Wolverines hold an edge in games between the two teams, 57-39-6.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 03:27 PM

Oh..by the way....ah still don't see Alybamer in the top 5 listings of all time.









Do you?

The true and more encompassing polls I dislayed show 12/12.....maybe you should count them...I could have made a boo-boo.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 03:34 PM

FACTOMUNDO:




Ohio State is in the all time top 5 in wins and pct.

Alybamer is not.


I could lay tons more of hardware on you in addition...but you won't believe it.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 03:36 PM

Ah wonder why Congress didn't vote for Alybamer/Auburny???








I mean..it's a fact they didn't.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 03:47 PM

Golly I wish someone else would join in.


I simply adore meeting new people and making new friends!!










Yes I do!

Well you look like one.





YES!!....history was as recent as yesterday....which mean Ohios has won an NC a lot more recently than Alybama.

You want recent?

I'll bet Ohios record this century is better than Flory-dahs and Alybamers.


You SECOND fans sound like PacMan fans.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 04:50 PM

Best since 2000:


Oklahoma, 85-15 (.850)
Boise State, 80-15 (.842)
Texas, 80-16 (.833)
Ohio State, 80-18 (.816)
Miami (Fla.), 75-19 (.798)
USC, 74-20 (.787


Gee....no SECONDS here either.

Hey...that recent enough fer ya'all??

Mortimer 10-16-2007 04:54 PM

WELL ....recent history fans????

Mortimer 10-16-2007 04:58 PM

Thank you for your courageous output....MS. Cajunfreightah.

Mortimer 10-16-2007 06:27 PM

Well it was really great embarrassing SECOND fans..but again...let's get back to business:







by: Charlotte Bronte



THERE'S no use in weeping,
Though we are condemned to part:
There's such a thing as keeping
A remembrance in one's heart:

There's such a thing as dwelling
On the thought ourselves have nurs'd,
And with scorn and courage telling
The world to do its worst.

We'll not let its follies grieve us,
We'll just take them as they come;
And then every day will leave us
A merry laugh for home.

When we've left each friend and brother,
When we're parted wide and far,
We will think of one another,
As even better than we are.

Every glorious sight above us,
Every pleasant sight beneath,
We'll connect with those that love us,
Whom we truly love till death !

In the evening, when we're sitting
By the fire perchance alone,
Then shall heart with warm heart meeting,
Give responsive tone for tone.

We can burst the bonds which chain us,
Which cold human hands have wrought,
And where none shall dare restrain us
We can meet again, in thought.

So there's no use in weeping,
Bear a cheerful spirit still;
Never doubt that Fate is keeping
Future good for present ill !
