Ya know, I've never been all that into football... But, when I lived in Texas, I started to gain a new appreciation for it, I guess. It's important to the people down there. Once I started at UT, I was more concerned for the quality of my education, but I did start to root for the Longhorns. Not to a level of some of my warmer-climate friends, but still.
Now I'm here in Columbus, home to THE Ohio State University. (Yeah, whatever, they call it that, I could really care less.) This week is the OSU/Michigan football game, which apparently is... uh... significant.
OK, I understand rooting for the home team and all, but... this is BEEF, people.
Seriously.

OK, that meat homage is pretty freakish...
They do take their football (and the U of M rivalry) seriously. I read just the other day about a punk band at the school called The Dead Schembechlers. Most of the music revolves around the OSU - Michigan feud.
Ironically, Bo Schembechler died the day after I read about the band.
How did the Longhorns (you know, COWS) never think of this? They're really are nuts down there (in a psychotic-yet-lovable kind of way).
