  1. Ohio State's last two games are against Michigan State and Michigan. Wouldn't it be the ultimate rivalry screw job if Michigan just happened to get a bunch of COVID cases and had to cancel the game, screwing Ohio State out of the Big Ten Championship game because they will not have played six games?
  2. Bewildering as a Big Ten fan, and infuriating as a Badger fan. Didn't have the same refs calling BS pass interference and ignoring blatant holding penalties.
  3. Depends on what you define as "junk food". I've heard the argument for years that poorer people are more likely to be obese because junk food/fast food is cheap. That is patently false. A 1/4 lb cheeseburger at a fast food restaurant will cost at least $3. Ignoring the cheese, bun, and ketchup/mustard, that's $12/lb for 70% lean beef; with the cheese/bun, let's say $10/lb (but that's also ignoring how much of the 30% fat that gets cooked off). A value meal with fries & a soda, at least $5; I don't know how much the fries weigh, but it's not a pound; let's say that the value meal comes to $10-12/lb of food. The "value menu" double cheeseburgers are at least $1.69; they use 1/10th of a lb patties, so for two patties it's 20% of a pound or at least $8.50/lb. I buy chicken breasts at the grocery store for $3-$4/lb. A one-lb bag of peeled & ready to eat carrots is $1.50-$2/lb. Apples are $2/lb. Bananas are $0.69/lb. Sweet potatoes are $1/lb; baking/russet potatoes more like $0.69/lb. Beets are $1/lb. Brussel sprouts are $2/lb. Zucchini is $1-$1.50/lb. 85% lean ground beef is $4/lb. A 15oz jar of peanut butter is $2.50-$3. And a gallon of water is $1 (a 2-liter of soda is at least $1.79). Fast food is not cheap - it's expensive. Fast food is easy.
  4. Amen. It's been a long year and we've had lots to argue about, but it's been almost therapeutic at times to have fairly intelligent and civilized people to argue with and, more importantly, learn from. Thanks to everyone for making this small corner of the internet a welcome escape from reality.
  5. LOL I do that too, however, if everyone does that, then there seems to be no actual safer place on a door that no one ever touches. I turn around and push the door open with my rear end and go out ass-backwards.
  6. Would have been exactly what they deserve for not playing the Purdue and Nebraska game even though they were not at the number of positive tests for an automatic cancellation of the games. Remember, the number of cases rose after they stopped team activities. When they stopped team activities they were red/orange but a few days later after case counts went up I'm pretty sure they were red/red.
  7. The way their defense was playing, you can't fault him for trusting the defense. The defense may have had a better chance of getting better field position than the offense.
  8. Oof... Tonyan was wide open. Got caught focusing on Adams.
  9. Right now we need the officials from the Badgers game yesterday
  10. Two days in a row watching football games that neither team really deserved to win.
  11. He was listed on the injury report, so he may not be physically 100%. He was also dealing with a personal matter, so he may not mentally be 100% either. IIRC, he hit a 62-yard punt last week.
  12. They started running no-huddle to keep the Packers with only two DL on the field.
  13. Over the last two seasons Pina has played only 91 games due to injury but accumulated 1.7 fWAR/1.3 bWAR over that time. Unless there are lingering injury concerns, that's not someone I would DFA.
  14. Well, at least we're not Penn State. Or Michigan. Or Michigan State. Or Nebraska. Or I could have been watching this disaster in-person at Wrigley Field.
  15. The scary thing is that this is probably what it's going to be like next year.
  16. "I think a runner brought some soup to the officials at halftime..."
  17. Berger is averaging 7.9 yards per carry. Give him the damn ball.
  18. Big three and out there, need to capitalize
  19. You know it's bad when even the announcers joke that they were surprised there wasn't pass interference called
  20. Unbelievable
  21. These refs need to be sent home. This is embarrassing.
  22. That has to be the worst pass interference call I've ever seen. That was so bad I'm not even upset... I'm dumbfounded.
  23. Third and one and get cute with play action.
  24. What is it about Northwestern where we can't hold on to the damn ball?
  25. Graham, please learn how to slide. We can't afford to lose you.
