Their idiotic insistence on their precious definite article?
Their notion, inevitably proven wrong every year, that they can run with the SEC?
Those stupid fucking helmet stickers?
Wanting to win and wearing helmet stickers is arrogant? I’m not sure we’re using the same definition of the word.
OK, the helmet stickers thing is just stupid and annoying, and it’s not just Ohio State, either. Everybody who uses them is stupid and annoying.
I’m not going to try and defend the “THE Ohio State University,” and I am a fan of the team, and I understand the Big Ten doesn’t have a conference title game and didn’t perform very well in the bowls for a few years (though they did perform well this past bowl season), but I always thought the backlash against OSU was WAY out of proportion. If it’s because they have douche bag fans, well…I think most college football teams have douche bag fans.
I personally think it is extremely arrogant to say THE Ohio State University. I am sure there are many other fine state universities funded by the citizens of Ohio.
Ohio State (I refuse to call it THE Ohio State) and Notre Dame.
And, really, I don’t hate the teams. I hate the obnoxious fans.
