Fuel to the Fire: Part II

While yesterday old Rich Rodriguez started the flame war, the OSU faithful took the gauntlet and ran with it. On the local sports radio, ex-players and current ESPN individuals Kirk Hebstreit (famous for his successful cloning operation) and Chris Spielman (famous for making small children cry) decided to add all sorts of gasoline to fire.

Herbstreit: “They’re a tough watch, watching that outfit. This is a great example of why I like to see Michigan be a very good, very competitive team. They’re 3-8 on their way to 3-9. And this is like the year somebody told you (the truth) about Santa Claus. This is like taking all the wind out of the sails.

“I know it’s still Ohio State-Michigan, and when the teams run onto the field, it’s still special, but this is just anti-climatic. (Michigan is) going to run onto the field, and ‘Booooooo!’ Who you booing? They’re 3-8.

Now that's bulletin board material. Michigan the ball is in your court now to make outrageous comments to fire up OSU.
