Taking a leave of abscence

Hey friends I am taking a couple weeks off of FN, I am finally to the point that the immaturity has gotten to me.  So I will be leaving for awhile to get away and hope things change, which I doubt will. I used to come in here and read funny blogs and comment in all the sections. Now I just end up reading blogs and try to have fun with T and R, but thats pretty much impossible anymore. If its not some ignorant fan from XYZ gving me **** about OSU, its an OSU fan giving me **** about "being too nice" to other fans...just not worth it anymore. So I promise I will check to read my favs Rugator, Hova, Hip Hop, etc. but as for being active I think my days are done, atleast for awhile....

Ramblings from Cbus

So I havent written a blog in about a month so I figured I would get one out of the way, by just writing some ramblings of my opinions, insight, and advice. Here we go...

 Pet Peeves:

I hate and I mean hate people who type loud in meetings! What exactly is so important that it cant wait an hour til you leave my meeting? So I imposed a no laptop rule at all me meetings so far it has worked, but honestly I am just craving the day someone tries it so I can kick their as.s out of my meeting! LOL

On a more familiar front, here are some things that irk me about some people on fannation,

The way too serious fan guy, yes you who truely believe this game and your fanhood is the abosolute reason why the world revolves. Yes I love football maybe more than most, but ask yourself at the end of the day am I going to wake up tomorrow, IF they lose? and to quote a Bronx Tale "Does Mickey Mantle really give a **** about you?", see where I'm going with that one.

I also dont like the fact some people think you cant have an intelligent conversation with someone from your rivals school or conference.. Why do you think this way? I talk with all kinds of people from Michigan, Penn St., and Wisconsin, believe it or not they have nice things to say and seem to have their head on straight, you can hate your rival, but leave it at that.

Last one, and let me explain this as clear as I can, you are not a tough guy on the internet, so stop trying to be one. Sarcasm, whit, cynicism are all funny, but noone likes an as.shole....

Ohio State:

Good riddance Kosta Doofus, you under acheived all year and I honestly the Buckeyes will be better without you. 7 feet tall and you can't play with your back to the basket??? That may be acceptable in Europe but ya play in the Big Ten son....

Good Luck Vernon Gholston! Go show the league you can play that hybrid end spot in a 3/4.

I think the football team looks good, a little iffy in some back up spots but overall I think they had a good spring. Keep working hard and I cant wait for August. BTW anyone see Etienne Sabo play, that kid gets it done!

Same goes for Boom Herron, alot of good looks for the young guys at OSU.

Can they get back for lucky number 3? I think so, but it may not happen, court of public opinion isnt high on the Bucks, but if you run the table and dont give anyone a chance to hate, then your future is in your hands.

Chad Johnson:

You're a D.o.u.c.h.e.b.a.g! Your act is old and you're really not that great.

and finally I have to give my props to all my freinds on here ala HOV:

Steriods my rant!

Ok I just read the story over on SI.com about steroids and the havoc they are wreaking on today’s culture. I find this to be a little far fetched. I know there are going to be people that completely disagree with me and opinion about the juice, but I honestly don’t care at this point.

Here is what I don’t get, if you aren’t taking it and you don’t play sports, why do you care what some guy you don’t know puts in his body? I look at it the same way I look at marijuana, if that’s your thing, and you're not in my face with it, by all means get as smoked out as you want. Steroids are even more like this to me. Please my friends on here explain to me how this affects any of you on a personal level.

Winter in Columbus, Ohio

So as it stands it is the end of February and what seems like years away from kick-off 08. I’m trying to figure out what I am going to do to pass my time till the Bucks make another run at WINNING a national title. I've tried to think of things that might be fun to do, work out, go out, watch NASCAR haha, watch something, but nothing inspires me right now. I don’t know what it is about the late winter drag in Ohio that absolutely kills your mind. 

Why So Bitter??????

I sit here and I read comment after comment on how other schools suck and shouldn't get to play in this bowl or that bowl. I dont actually get it, has this site become more about hating other teams, because of our own insecurities about our own? I see some, but not very many stating the love for their chosen team, which is great and I have no problem with that. Cheer for your team, argue your points to back up your opinion. Just do it intelligently.
