OSU dodges bullet in game 2, 32-30.

Gordon 13K, but .200. Makes you wonder how healthy she is.

Mapp at .571 (10-2-14), but OSU hitting .182 as a team. Dayton at .152.

Why do you follow the Bucks?? Every post you have put on here is derogatory towards them. Stay home and get a life before you leave again.

Gordon is fine--you'll find out next week. Teams that continually double and triple block her are making it difficult sometimes but 21 kills tonight plus 16 digs is pretty good night.

Feel free to repost every single comment I've made here regarding MY Buckeyes.

I've lived in Ohio all my life.. grew up in Toledo and had to withstand the sickening amount of Michigan bandwagoneers for 18 years.
I was at every single home match last year in a 5-win B10 season.
When Penn State won at OSU, I watched the droves storm out of St. John while I sang "Carmen Ohio" with the team and the band.
I am not -- nor EVER been -- a homer. I call a spade a spade. When the Buckeyes (ANY sport) play like crap, I admit it; I support them with much pride and REALISM. I think that hack Bette Davis said, "Birds pick at the best fruit."
Last night, the coaches were echoing EXACTLY what I posted. I love that team-- ALWAYS have-- and if you were present, you cannot deny the fact that they were not on their game. At times, they were addled. Of course, as is Ohio tradition, every mid-conference team brings its A Game to Ohio State. Same to Michigan. All those MAC teams up there want a piece of UM. (Ditto texas, etal) OU's breath is baited. That's why OSU needs to play like the Top Ten team they are.

Why do I follow the Bucks? Did that answer your question? Now, you tell ME how I should post and how I should "feel" when I'm losing my voice at every match. I will be taking the life I ALREADY have to St John tonight, thank you, where I'll be standing and cheering myself sick.
Sticks and stones, Sweetie, but do NOT hide behind your monitor and insult my integrity as a fan. OK?
Thank you.

I didn't know I could do this. This will be my 12th post. Read on:

1)This might be a secret, but Stacey is still suffering a bad shoulder injury. (was that derogatory toward OSU?)

2) That's THE Our Stacey University to you, Cletus. [/quote]

lolol honor defend... (was that derogatory toward OSU?)

3) I talked to her mom at intermission of the Wisconsin bloodening (sorry... we don't have football this year, so the mouth migrates, no?). She awoke Saturday a.m. in pain. That's all I know.
They 'tated her out of two serves against PSU.

As for "leaving her in" so much for four years, hey... like it or not, it's the only way to gain ground for any team/individual recognition. I've never met her (don't intend to), but she and Coach Stone are the sole reasons I've been so fanatic over these years. I hope he sticks around. Off court, he's a tremendous guy and a worthy pal. Alas, the hardest returning hitter isn't even on scholarship and plays 2 minutes a week. But it was a great frosh class. (was that derogatory toward OSU?)

4) Wow, you're smart! We're pulling for her. It was bittersweet at Friday's last home match, as Stacey gave her senior farewell speech following the win. She's not only NAILS on the court, she's all class with the mic. I may even arrange an actual autograph (something I've never cared for in the past).

I actually got mushy when Coach Stone had the band play "O, Canada" for her, and I'm pretty sore at America Junior right now. (was that derogatory toward OSU?)

5) lolol
I'm on his side. Friday, her kill-off-the-block orb was headed 'twixt my eyes, but a Dudley Doorightesque feller snatched the white missile and saved my very life. My hero!

(it really was coming FAST!) (was that derogatory toward OSU?)

6) We're going up to East Lansing for the OSU/MSU match Saturday.

Say the word, and I'll toss my Spartan Squishee Supreme at Schram.

(John Edwardsesque disclaimer: I really won't. That's not a threat. ha ha for it is to laugh) (was that derogatory toward OSU?)

7) OSU 3 -- UM 0

30-28 30-24 30-17

Gordon: 18K 13 D .302

UM Sports Radio? Lose the whiney chick. She's horrible!!! (was that derogatory toward OSU?)

8) Congrats to Coach Stone, Stacey (duh) and Marisa. Now c'mon, Main... set 'em HIGHER if you want to make a statement in Minneapolis!!! (was that derogatory toward OSU?)

The last are in this thread. In the future, do a little homework before your lame attack gets a solo block, ok?

You DID answer my question as to your patronage regarding the team and your loyalty to your residential state. Your dedication to the home team is admirable but I noticed your posts seem to be critical or at least less than positive, as I said. You only have a few posts here--I didn't see any of your posts on here when they were setting the team record of 19-0 at the time--or when they dropped the # 1 Minnesota Gophers in four. It just seemed strange that you post regarding Gordon's suspected physical status, not a great description re Jaimie Holmes and now in this post you mention only the 5-15 past season. It was refreshing to see your entry about the senior night and Stacey's prescence. I thought perhaps you had turned a corner. I'll be at the game tonight, too, as always, let's "enjoy" the game, the atmosphere, the sportsmanship and be glad we had a chance to participate in our own way.

Didn't catch OU-Pitt last night (got there in time for Game 2 of OSU) but OU doesn't look like the typical MAC team. I was surprised by the ease of their win last night. Looks like they spread the ball around (5 players with 500+ atempts). Saying that I still think the Lady Bucks will be ok. I dont think they have the great backrow defense that could beat us.

I was VERY impressed w/ the Bobs. It should be a fun one tonight.

Are we officially burying the hatchet?
