Gather around, boys and girls, for this will be an old fashioned tale of wonder and conflicts set in the wondrous setting of Steampunk in a Victorian timeline. I will be the Narrator for this tale, and will make my best to make head and tail of the various shenanigans that our protagonists will come up with these nights.
Welcome to the Astral Carnival, a carnival, or circus, if you would prefer, set in a pocket dimension that come available to other dimensions in specific time of the month, mainly when the moon grow big and red as a Hunter Moon. This is a time of merriment and wonder, as those who know of the carnival only need to wish to become a part of it on these nights to become a carnie of the carnival.
There we are, in the out of character area of our little tale, where I ask of you: Would you want this tale to be on the interactive side with items and inventories as well as skills and attributes gained or would you want this more traditional? Also, should you want to go with the traditional Character Sheet or a more whimsical create as you go along?

Easier that Find my iphone.
I saw Tagg at the Apple store, and decided to try it to give my wife and I a better sense of security in case our dog Maggie ever I saw Tagg at the Apple store, and decided to try it to give my wife and I a better sense of security in case our dog Maggie ever sneaks around our fence. Within a couple of weeks it has already come in handy. The other day, Maggie the doggie decided to wander away from the house. She tends to do this every other month or so for no apparent reason. In the past, we would have been driving and walking around the neighborhood for an hour until we find her or until she returned home on her own. With the Tagg, when we noticed we didn't see her around the yard, I grabbed my phone and saw the text that said she was out of her zone. Very quickly with the iphone app, we zoned in on her exact location, the backyard, 4 houses down the street. I think we shocked her, we found her so fast.
It is very simple to set up and use – fits right on her own collar and looks cool too. Everybody wants to know what is on Maggie's collar. Both the Tagg and the iPhone app are great. Five Stars for sure! Thanks Apple. …- Written by Scott A from Canton

Mystery Solved
I have always wondered where my cat was when she was gone for hours on end, often overnight. So even though she is only 7 lbs, I c I have always wondered where my cat was when she was gone for hours on end, often overnight. So even though she is only 7 lbs, I couldn't resist buying a Tagg for her. The first night I woke up at 4 AM and checked her location on my laptop and was shocked to see that she had crossed a busy road about 1/4 mile away and was roaming around a nature reserve. I could even see a map of exactly where she had traveled on that night's journey- so cool! Another time she was gone for a few days and my kids and I used my iPhone Tagg app to locate her- sleeping in a bush in a nearby park. We called her name and she came out yawning.
This device works as described and I highly recommend to anyone- especially those who have a pet that gets away. A friend of mine got one for her dog that is an escape artist and now she gets a text anytime he leaves the zone (a 100 foot radius around her house) and can easily locate him. Great product! …- Written by Robin D from Del Mar

We have h I got a Tagg Tracker a couple of months ago for my escape artist Labrador pretty much the moment I found out it existed. We have had a couple scares due to her wandering including a run-in with a train and a few hard weeks when she was taken in by another family. I don't expect anyone's life to be as dramatic as my dog's but since I've had the tracker we have been able to avoid the weekly heart attack of her running away. The moment she slips out I know and just follow the map on this app and collect her. I also love the activity tracking- it has helped me keep an eye on her health. As a lab she has hip displaysia and I know how active she has been during the day while I'm at work and thus how much pain she has had. Based on that I know whether to give her some doggy aspirin before I take her for a walk or not. I love this app - it has made being a good pet mother so much easier! …

Reaches a 70% funding level.
So while while I respect president -- -- opinions.

EE&K Architects team receives Presidential Citation for Sustainable Design
Professor Matthew Bell and his team at Ehrenkrantz Eckstut & Kuhn Architects have received a 2010 Merit Award in Historic Resources / Presidential Citation for Sustainable Design from the American Institute of Architects, DC Chapter.
The award recognizes the innovative architectural contribution that The School Without Walls Senior High School makes to the fabric of the Foggy Bottom neighborhood in Washington, DC. The project was one of four identified for "successfully navigating the difficult challenge" of adding to and modernizing a historic structure, and has been certified LEED Gold.
"Our vision was to revive the beauty of a classic historic building while adding the value and accessibility of more modern and sustainable resources," said Professor Bell, who served as design principal. "Our team is honored to be recognized by AIA-DC for the School Without Walls renovation."
At the heart of the project the team transformed the existing 19th century building, which, said Bell, "was to the point of crumbling", back to its original integrity while incorporating sustainable architectural elements. This included replacing 95% of the windows, floors and walls as well as modernizing key infrastructure elements such as mechanical systems, lighting and acoustics. The L-shaped addition doubles the school's useful space and provides resources to the students and larger community that the original building could not, including a media center, art and science labs, additional bathrooms and an elevator.
Also participating on the winning project team were three UMD MARCH grads: Abigail Cronin, Leonardo Varone, and Hendra Halim.
"With its unique partnership with George Washington University, 'WALLS' prides itself on enhancing the high school experience with greater education accessibility," continued Bell. "The finished renovation provides an environment to support and foster unique academic opportunities."
The School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation at the University of Maryland is home to four academic disciplines: architecture, urban planning, historic preservation and real estate development. Committed to educating its students and community about the importance of sustainability and smart growth, the School practices an interdisciplinary approach to education, research, creative work, and community and professional service.

May 3, 2013: The data have been updated and are current.
The Federal Reserve has introduced a number of new tools for conducting monetary policy and dealing with the financial crisis. These tools have become more important with the federal funds rate close to zero. Chairman Ben Bernanke divides the tools into three groups:
The new tools make use of the Fed's balance sheet, particularly the asset side, and involve ways of extending credit and purchasing securities. These actions can change both the absolute level of the balance sheet as well as the types of assets it contains. Bernanke has called the use of the balance sheet in this way "credit easing."
The charts on this site let you see the assets of the balance sheet in a number of ways. Explore them by using the navigation bar on the left.
This page shows the balance sheet with the individual tools grouped into the three types of new credit-easing tools, plus the base of traditional Fed assets.
For an overview of the new tools, see this article.

Three Signs You Should See a Dermatologist
By Angela Tague
Skin tags are generally nothing to worry about. The benign little flaps of skin usually pop up in areas where the skin rubs together or clothing creates friction. But, sometimes these little skin nuisances change and take on minds of their own. Each time I visit my dermatologist she takes a peek at my freckles and tags to look for changes.
1. A Change in Color
If the skin starts to change color, call your dermatologist. Tags are usually the same color as the surrounding skin. If the area turns red or purple, the tag is bruised or holding blood. Your doctor can biopsy the skin to see what's going on.
2. A New Shape
Is the tag puffy, swollen, or getting larger? You need to find out the reason for the inflammation, especially if the change in shape is accompanied by pain or itching. If a tag appears smaller and it's located in an area where you shave, such as the armpit, there's no need to worry.
3. Scabbing or Discharge
It's not normal for a skin tag to ooze or form a scab. If you see a yellow, white, or green discharge coming from the tag, it may be infected. Clean the area and dab a topical antibiotic on the area until you can get to the dermatologist's office.
Not sure if you have skin tags? Give your skin a through exam when you step out of the shower. Use a hand-held mirror to view your back and hard-to-see areas.

Forecasters say the heat index could climb into the triple digits in some parts of Ohio as hot and steamy weather covers the state.
The hottest weather so far this summer is expected to last through Friday. Ohioans will get a slight relief from the blistering temperatures when a cold front comes through on Saturday.
Dr. Eric Adkins, with the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, says the best option is to find some air conditioning to get into even if you don't have it at home.
"You can go out to a mall, find a grocery store, even the local library is air conditioned. You could go out and take in a good book," he said.
However, if you have to be outside, Adkins suggests you try and limit outside exposure to the morning and evening hours. The best advice is to stay hydrated, and he says there's nothing better for that than water.
"The sports drinks may have a little bit of calories, but you want to be cautious about some of those drinks that have too much sugar in them, which may promote a bit of a dehydration effect with them," Adkins said.
The sweltering temperatures Tuesday forced the IRS office in Dayton to close after experiencing air-conditioning issues.
The weather service is reminding people to never leave children and pets unattended in a car, especially in extreme weather.

We must be prepared to utilize all available tools to meet goals established by the 21st Century Challenge. The use of technology in our schools represents one of those tools. Children are the key to America's future and computers are the tools of their times.
Technology can enhance children's learning and unlock their creativity. It can help children be more productive and develop better communication skills that will help them succeed in college or the workplace.
Those responsible for predicting the future work force indicate that the US economy will become more and more tied to our ability to access knowledge and information. When utilized along with other resources, such as the timely availability of management information, effectively prepared teachers and administrators, well equipped facilities, and appropriate levels of funding, technology can help ensure that our students will become successful and productive citizens.
With this in mind, it is important to give our children preparation in the technological skills that will be necessary for the 21st Century.

I know students have been talking about this and it is the "unofficial" bowl game. After OSU wipes the field with scUM, what are the odds the field is rushed?
Rushing the field after scUM game?
If it does cap off an undefeated season, maybe. Rushing the field for Wisconsin was different last year. It was a night game and a huge upset. If Michigan were 11-1 coming into The Game, yes I would rush the field, but as it is right now I don't think OSU should rush the field.
I hate to look ahead to TSUN right now, especially when Ohio State is going to such a hostile environment this weekend.
This being said, IF Ohio State walks into Madison and gets a win this weekend, and then they beat TSUN next week, I'd love... I repeat I'D LOVE to see the fans rush the field. Going 12-0 is a feat in itself. But doing it after a 6-7 season the previous year, and getting a revenge win from last seasons game vs those dirtbags up north, it's only necessary to rub it in their face.
But it starts with the Badgers. Let them play this game first, then it's beat TSUN week.
Time and Change will surely show, how firm thy friendship O-HI-O!
It's not about beating Michigan, it's about defying the odds and revelling in the joy of a perfect season (judging that we get past Wisconsin, nothing's guaranteed these days). I've never understood the adversion to rushing the field; it's not like we do it often, and during certain circumstances I believe it to be completely warranted. Last year vs. Wisconsin was due to the cinematic finish, and it was a singular bright spot in a terrible year. Did it really warrant rushing the field? Probably not, but who cares? Let the people celebrate.
An undefeated season is f*cking hard, folks. There's a reason we've only had a handful of them in our 100+ year history. To cap off a perfect season with a win against our resurgent storied rival at home would be a perfect ending to a season that even NCAA sanctions cannot take away from. Damn right that's worth celebrating.
I won't have the privilege to be there, but I would be all for rushing the field. To the rest of the nation, our season means nothing. Rushing the field after a perfect season, I'd say that at the very least shows people that it still means something to us. That's all that matters
It's 5 o'clock somewhere, & Michigan still sucks
Im not big on rushing the field unless it is a large upset, shows we didnt necessarily expect to win and that the W surprised us.(ok when sends us to NC games) Last year against Wisconsin was ok becuase we had a rough year and nobody expected us to win, especially with such a fantastic finish. However, if it marks a 12-0 season I think I could make an exception to the rule, even if we arent going to a bowl game. I mean there has only been 5 perfect seasons so it would be a historic moment.
I rushed the field back in '02. Took a chunk of turf from the center of the "O", which can now be found in the front yard of 1832 Summit Street. It's an experience I'll never forget.
However, on the way in, this guy next to me took a weaponized load of mace to his grill. I caught the residual over spray so it didn't suck too bad. I got to pat Krenzel on the back and then on my way out I watched the masses fail at tearing down the goal post in front of the student section. After I got out (I simply walked out of the tunnel) I stumbled into Larkins (where the RPAC is now) to use the facilities. The same guy was in the shower next to some other poor bastard with their faces under the water both screaming in agony.
I won't get into what I experienced west of High Street that night. Let's just say my point is, if you rush the field be careful of mace and don't start any riots. :)

All this talk about rushing the field for a perfect season... Did we forget that we have a game against Wisconsin that is not in the bag officially? Call me superstitious like Buckeyebrowny919 but this forum came a week too early. Don't worry, I've been wanting to post forum(s) in honor of rivalry week and rushinig the field but I think its best to not put the cart before the horse yet. Let's go get the W versus Wisconsin then revisit this matter. Go Bucks!
Insert witty remark
Players cannot afford to put the cart before the horse. Fans? We can put that cart wherever we want it, before the horse, on top of the horse, strapped to a rocket and heading toward the moon. Maybe you're supertitious, maybe you're protecting yourself against disappointment. Me? I'm already wondering whether Urban can lead OSU to back-to-back undefeated seasons, and I'm confident that my wondering will have absolutely no effect on whether or not it happens.
I was on the field twice in my lifetime. Once in a "meaningless" game against Michigan 98. To our credit we didnt get to see many of those victories while I was a student in the 90's. So rushing the field was a huge knee jerk reaction to the surprise that we actually beat Michigan!
The second time was in 2002. A much more warranted rush of the field for sure. It was fun to get on the field and slap players back. If you have a chance to beat Michigan and go undefeated (if we win this week of course) then I say go ahead and do it. You dont get a chance to do it much in football so take the opportunity to create a memory!

Ahh that 2002 scUM game was special... Still have a piece of that turf in a samich baggy with my student season ticket from 13A. Patted Doss on the back where he was kneeling in the O at mid field. Hoisted my cousins husband on the goal post. Roommate was holding up one of Krezels legs on the cover of SI. What a day that was...
Lets not too ahead of ourselves, still have to varment hunt at 3:30 this weekend. If it happens next week, it'll not only put a big exclamation mark on the season and send all of the seniors out the right way, pave the way for gray boxes of goodness, and hopefully leave that unfinished taste for the team going into the offseason. I'm sure Mariotti would love that.
Nothing like dancing on the field in 02...
I'll definitely be on the field if we're capping an undefeated season. That's huge.
When I walked in this morning and saw the flag was at half mast I thought, "Alright, another bureaucrat ate it." but then I saw it was Li'l Sebastian. Half mast is too high. Show some damn respect.
Hail2Victors: I mean this with respect...you guys have beaten us a lot lately and you have more class than that. Act like like you've been there before. Not an upset, not a CG berth, just a rivalry win.
If you saw the end of the Kansas/MSU game last night, a couple players started to jump up and down at midcourt and were instantly signaled to stop by the more experienced players. Yeah, you beat a top 10 Kansas team, but you shouldn't be surprised about doing it.
We rushed the field because it was a last second win over a rival we hadn't beat in 4 years. Same thing when they rushed the field last year in AnnArbor after beating OSU for the first time in 8 years.
so let me get this straight. you think it's ok for michigan fans to rush the field after beating a .500 ohio state team, but it's not ok for ohio state to rush the field if they end up undefeated? LOL double standards much? but it was ok for michigan fans to rush the field after michigan beat "OSU for the first time in 8 years". hold on while I LOL.
"I learned to dislike Michigan at a very young age." – Urban F. Meyer
Go for it. It's a fun aspect of college sports, forced or not. I'd say a 12-0 season, 8-0 Big Ten record, and 5-0 Revenge Tour record would be reason to go down there and rush it. I'd do it just to tell Hoke that he's fat. And he'd respond "look who's talking". :)
Class of 2010.
What? I never said any of that. You dont think we should rush the field after a 12-0 season. But you guys rush the field after beating a .500 team last year and again rush the field after beating a .500 team this year.? I understand the rivalry part but how can you say we shouldnt rush the field after a perfect season when you guys do after beating .500 teams. You going to rush the field after beating ND next year? 02 and 06 we rushed the field cause we had perfect 12-0 seasons!! What makes this year different? But again I say we still gotta get there.
@Ahh Saturday I agree the fans dont have to worry where to put the horse or the cart.
This team wasn't supposed to be 10-0. So it isn't about winning a couple more games It would be about winning all of them.. If I was at that game and the Buckeyes won, I would rush the field. Show them that we have been there before and we know how to rush a field... lol
O H I O is the Buckeye State
I will be doing everything in my power to rush the field when we finish the season 12-0. I rushed the field against Wisconsin last year after dislocating my shoulder the Monday before. Bad idea based on my circumstances? Maybe. Do I regret it? Not once.

If it's a perfect season = rush the field if you're there!!!

Last year was a shit-storm, this year undefeated...
It could be an epic day & the rivalry win is great, but really just icing on the cake for a pretty special season & special team so, yeah if it all works out & the record is 12-0 after that game is done --- get on out there.
The world is full of kings & queens who'll blind your eyes & steal your dreams - it's heaven & hell - Ronnie James Dio.
Of course we rush the field!!! After last years season and going 12-0 during a bowl ban year?!!! Hell yes we rush the field and tear down the goal post too!! Its our Bowl Game!! I really dont get how some of you have a problem with this?! Its college sports thats what they do! Com'on live a little....
I would also have to disagree with Hail -- not sure how you can belittle our fans potentially rushing the field if we are fortunate enough to go 12-0 (obviously we have two huge battles left, first), when your fans rushed the field (not to mention Denard's ridiculous "grenade" incident) after beating the worst Ohio State team since the 1800s. I understand it's been a while since you had beaten us, but our team lost to just about everybody last year -- eeking out a 6 point win in Ann Arbor over a team as bad as our 2011 squad was, isn't something to be too proud of. So to use your own quote right back at you: "act like you've been there before".
@ Hail
Sure you did. Here is your quote:
I mean this with respect...you guys have beaten us a lot lately and you have more class than that. Act like like you've been there before. Not an upset, not a CG berth, just a rivalry win.
If you saw the end of the Kansas/MSU game last night, a couple players started to jump up and down at midcourt and were instantly signaled to stop by the more experienced players. Yeah, you beat a top 10 Kansas team, but you shouldn't be surprised about doing it.
We rushed the field because it was a last second win over a rival we hadn't beat in 4 years. Same thing when they rushed the field last year in AnnArbor after beating OSU for the first time in 8 years.
So you basically implied above that it's classless to do it, and yet at the bottom of the same post you attempt to rationalize why your fanbase did it to us last year, and here we are 5 minutes ago, you say that you wouldn't do it if you could be the one making the decision:
I didn't belittle anyone. If you guys want to rush the field, have at it. If I had the overall say if Michigan were to rush the field in an identical situation, I would say no.
So which is it?
I think Hail's intent was to say that "Rushing the field" is more a celebratory act reserved for monumental upsets or long-starved victories over rivals. I don't necissarily agree with this viewpoint, but he wasn't trying to belittle us.
Honestly, since the year started, a majority of the commentariat have been regarding an OSU victory in The Game as if it were a certainty. If it's such an expected victory, does it really warrant rushing the field? I'd normally say no, but considering the fact that (hypothetically, of course) we'd be playing for an undefeated season, and that it's our de-facto bowl game, I'd consider it a most worthy occasion.
@ Hodge
IMO I also wouldn't be all for rushing the field, either in Michigan's case last year (embarrassing that they did IMO given how bad we were), or this year for us based on it just being a rival. Now if we were 12-0 celebrating the fact that these guys went from an awful 6-7 squad to a 12-0 squad, I can understand why they would, but I've never been a big proponent of rushing the field in too many cases. I just take issue with the hypocrisy present in Hail's post, and I generally like Hail and respect his input, I just didn't like the "it's ok when we do it, but not when you do it" premise that it appears he is advocating based on the posts I quoted.
To Hail: First off...it's not disrespectful to storm the field...I did in 2009 when we beat Iowa in OT. It's about excitement and an overall love for your team and what they've just accomplished. Not to mention tTUN fans...have a little more sense to come to a thread about storming the field after beating your favorite team. You guys would do it if you beat us and you're undefeated...stop hating. M Man actually has sense...unlike you obviously. Up votes for M Man despite his closet Buckeye love;-)
Addition: Thanks for the down vote Hail...GO BUCKS! Only 9 days till 2005-2010 becomes 2012-2020....are you ready for it? Let the domination begin...again!
Edit again: How does your anus feel Hail...I'm sure it hurts;-) This is for you

How is that hypocritical, Razr? If Ohio State hadn't beat Michigan in 7 years and they won, I would say go for it. If they hadn't beat Wisconsin in 4 years, I'd be for it. If they were playing a top 10 Nebraska team and won in the final seconds, I'd say go for it. I'm not opposed to rushing the field. If Michigan wrapped up a perfect season, but couldn't play in the post season, was a heavy favorite at home and had won 7 of the last 8 against ohio state, I wouldn't rush the field. If you all wanted to, sobeit. A differing opinion isn't hipocrisy.
Hodge summed it up pretty well. It doesn't matter what your record was last year. You may have been 6-5 entering the game but you also had Posey back and OSU played their best (at least second best) game against us. It wouldn't have mattered if you were 0-11. Record doesn't matter in rivalry games, especially The Game. They didn't rush the field because they won, they rushed the field because they won for the first time in almost a decade. It was huge monkey off the proverbial Michigan back. It was a rejoicing and a time that RichRod was finally put to rest.
Bhop, I have been ignoring your posts for the last 6 months. But, by all means, continue on like I care about your opinion of me and M man or anyone else posting here.
Those who stay will be CHAMPIONS!

Want to hear a joke? It's OK for scUM to rush the field after beating a 6-5 osu team but not OK for OSU to rush the field if they beat michigan and finish 12-0.
If you can't see how that's hypocritical then you do not understand the definition of hypocrisy
"I learned to dislike Michigan at a very young age." – Urban F. Meyer
@ Hail
I pointed out exactly why the case you're making is hypocritical.
You make the implication that it would be classless for a potential (again, we haven't done it yet so this is all hypothetical) rushing of the field by OSU fans after going 12-0 following a 6-7 campaign where we lost to everyone with a pulse (and a few without), while attempting to rationalize UM fans rushing the field after winning by 6 points at home against the worst Ohio State team that's ever taken the field (and in fairness to the players, the disaster of 2011 was far more on the coaching staff than the players, IMO) during the lifetime of anyone currently living with the exception of what appears to be 3 folks who would've been infants during the 1897 season (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldest_people#Ten_verified_oldest_people_li...). The case you're making is not only hypocritical. It's utterly absurd.
I can respect your difference of opinion that you think it's ok for UM fans to rush the field after winning last year, that is fine -- but don't say it's not hypocritical to then turn around and imply that the conditions under which the original poster in this thread has put forth for a rushing of the field by OSU fans is in some way classless. Give us all a break, here.
Edit: Just to add as others have mentioned, this isn't just the Michigan game for us. It's our season-ender. It's our bowl game, our NCG.
Yeah Hail your never gonna win this arguement buddy so I would just leave it alone lol. Considering this is the biggest game on our schedule this year (and every year) we would want nothing more than to curb stomp scUM and send them off licking their wounds to cap off a 12-0 season. Whats not to celebrate?? What because its OSU and we've won alot of games in the past?? Those past games have nothing to do with the players that are on the field now working their tails off trying to get better everyday. Im all for storming the field. It will more than likely be young 18-25 yr old kids storming the field so letting them show a little emotion after a long hard fought season is perfectly fine in my eyes...
Hail, is it because OSU is on probation??
Any other year or team, who finishes undefeated would rush the field regardless, especially if the last game came against your biggest rival, and probably the biggest rivalry in all of sports...
On a normal year, the bucks going 12-0 would either mean NC game (after the big10 champ of course) or Rose Bowl, and students would still rush the field. An undefeated season, is an undefeated season. We have no bowl game, finishing perfect totally justifies rushing the field. Even if it is against the Wolverqueens who should already have 5 losses. But I suppose they'll get #4 vs us and #5 in their bowl game.
I just wonder who it is that keeps giving downvotes to all the people who are debating hail on rushing the field? It certainly wouldn't be a fellow OSU fan, would it?
If not an OSU fan, then who could it be...
ps: I keep countering your downvotes with an upvote everytime I see one!
@buckeye.33: "We rushed the field because it was a last second win over a rival we hadn't beat in 4 years. Same thing when they rushed the field last year in AnnArbor after beating OSU for the first time in 8 years." Hail's actual quote...
Hail...what does ^this^ reply sound like to you??? It sounds like a hypocrite to me...sorry. Whether you ignore me or not...it's true. Your point(s) are the ones that are moot...

I have a few things to say about the topic and this thread.
1) The fans talking about 12-0 won't jinx 12-0 it has no bearing for to what happens on the field. If the Buckeyes lose they lose, and it really doesn't matter what we talk about on here.
2) I think rushing the field should be restricted to schools who have never won anything. I TYPICALLY believe rushing the field or court is dumb and nothing good can come of it.
3) That being said if this team beats Michigan and ends up 12-0, they should absolutely rush the field and celebrate like a bunch of drunken fools lol. If I were at the game and in the stands my ass would be out there and I'm a grown assed man who has no business doing such things. Let's face it, 12-0 is our national championship this year. The Michigan game is our bowl game. 12-0 has only happened what 5 times in Buckeye history? This senior class deserves to go out with a bang. Hell I think they should all be carried off the field. Then Urban completing a perfect record in his first season, and beating Michigan his first shot. Yeah, rush the field Buckeye fans, but don't make a habit of it.
@hail, this is the first time I've seen you involved in a thread so passionately in a LONG time. I think you have to step back from the situation to bring a fair perspective to the discussion. tOSU this year is unlike any other year in tOSU history thanks to the NCAA. The scUM game this year is essentially our bowl game, our national championship game, and our revenge from last year game all rolled into one. This years THE GAME, means soooo much more than any other year (granted #1 vs #2 or the game to go to the National Championship mean a lot as well), given how emotionally invested all tOSU fans (especially the passionate ones) are in this years team. If we win (and I don't think it's a given), rushing the field will be a forgone conclusion, because of the reasons mentioned above. I get what you're saying, but....you won't win this argument here this year.
This team is honestly my favorite Buckeye team I've ever watched. They aren't the best, but they are absolutely my favorite. I don't get that emotionally involved in sports, it's a diversion from my hectic work week and other stresses in my life which drain a lot of my emotions, but I feel about this team the way I felt about sports when I was a kid. If they lose, I'm probably going to throw a tantrum and may even cry. If they go 12-0, I can't pretty much promise I'll cry. I never get this emotional about a team and this year's Reds team had me that way and this year's Buckeyes team has me feeling this way. I've been blessed this season to have my 2 favorite teams be a pretty special group of guys who were really a joy to watch.
@ Ahh Saturday,
This was funny when I read it so I took this with a grain of salt. I think you know me well in that I am protecting myself against disappointment. I haven't sip the "We're gonna beat Wisconsin due to them using a 3rd string QB" Kool-aid yet. It probably doesn't help that I've been there before in 2010 to watch us lose. So for now I'm cautions.
Insert witty remark
Edit: I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but I predicted that we go 10-2 this seaon with a lost against Wisconsin... Lets put a spin on this question since their seems to be a lot of IFs. If we lose to Wisconsin, and we beat Michigan to go 11-1, do we still rush the field?
Insert witty remark
OK... so now we are 11-0... with only TSUN between us and the glorious bragging rights that come with an undefeated season. I sit in 30A down near the student section and think that if we win it would be awesome if the entire field is covered with fans singing Carmen Ohio... The team deserves to know how great an accomplishment it is, and how proud they've made their fans and the whole state.
I have a cousin who thought our fans were wrong to rush the field after last year's Wisconsin game. He kept trolling me about it and I almost unfriended him. We're better now, but he's still wrong.
If we're undefeated, I say rush on! (I'll be in B-Deck, though, so I won't be able to join in.)
Real fans stay for Carmen.
@Buckeyebrowny919 Im not superstitious because its bad luck... I see what your saying about planning the rush but its all in fun and its not going to decide how the players are going to play. The whole season was a rollercoaster ride and what a finish it would be to see our enemy go down and then all the fans rush the field.
O H I O is the Buckeye State
First: I don't think Hail will comment anymore because you will continue to downvote him.
Second: I am watching "The Game" @ an Alumni game watch in Bloomington,Mn. and will rush the field(OK it will be the grassy knoll outside the bar) but I will be rushing the field at the Shoe in spirit as it shouild be done every year we win it !
Edit: and thanks for the downvote guy haha
You rush the field because:
1. Braxton's Heisman chances are that much realer.
2. We're 12-0 for crying out loud.
3. We may get an AP national championship nod.
/End of discussion.

I rushed the field. At first I wasn't but then I realized, . . . how many Michigan game am I going to get to go to? How many undefeated seasons will we be a part of? How many times will we have a losing season made up for by a winning season? The verdict was clear. Rush that field!!!!

THE Ohio State University
It was great being on the field again! (I was on last year after we beat Wisky). The funniest part was, after 35 minutes or so, we decided to leave, and headed toward the ramp at the north endzone. There was a huge bottleneck of fans leaving. Well, the scUM band hand't left yet, and were still sitting in their section. Droves of fans are exiting, walking right by them, yelling and swearing at them. Their band was protected by 7 highway patrolman. In the 15 minutes it took to get out of the bottleneck, the crowd sang We Don't Give a Damn About the Whole State of M1%$ig&n about 15 times. Between the singing (I thought of it more as a serenade) and the yelling, the band was absolutely terrified. I bet they had to stay for at least another hour or so. Absolutely hilarious.
