Hello Fellow Buckeyes Fan!
A few day before the season starts, I just wanted to say a friendly...
(++) GO BUCKS! (++)
Can you tell that I'm excited for Saturday's game? :) :) :)
Thanks for checking in Ria! The season can't get here soon enough! I checked out your profile. You think being a Buckeye is bad living in PA, try living in that state up north!
OH!
I echo your sentiment of the season not getting here fast enough. It feels like something is missing during the off season.
And you have my sympathies regarding your location. Don't worry we'll CRUSH 'EM on November 22!
Blue teams SUCK, GO BUCKS!
P.S. As I type, my son is playing with his Ohio State football that plays the fight song and says "Go Buckeyes!" Music to my ears!!! That is one toy with batteries I never tire of hearing. ;)
