Hot air begets hot air.

Cruising through Bucknuts.com and I see more 'outrage' regarding OSU's new ticket policy.

Here's some stupid shit that warrants no response. But hey, what else am I going to talk about? Brett Favre?

While debating how they should accommodate alumni seeking football tickets:

Or just televise ALL Buckeye games on FREE TV. Does anyone remember those days?


Yes, I do 'WillardBuck'. Cripes! Worst handle ever. I'll bet this dude has a HAM radio.

The last time TV was 'free' was about 25 years ago, before the advent of cable companies. I can't believe how many people equate cable TV with "free" these days. Don't you pay a bill every month for that magic wire that comes out of your wall?

It's not a matter of paying for it, you're already doing that my man. It's a matter of who gets the money. You want Comcast stuffing their pockets or do you want the Big Ten getting a cut?

Nothing is free except oxygen. That will change some day too.

I can remember when just about all the games were carried on ABC or picked up by channel 10 in Columbus. Both those channels can be received via rabbit ears/antenna and are free.

Maybe the dude taps into the cable going into his neighbor's trailer... Coincidently, Charlie Frey is from Willard. I wish they would put the games back on Channel 10. Nothing like Bush League local announcing.... "Finkes and Vrable are like a law firm. The law firm of Finkes and Vrable bringing law and order to that Northwestern offensive line."

Correct. Charlie was quite the athlete for the Flashes. I could tell you stories about him getting into trouble for drag racing on 224 after games, but we'll save those for another time.
