  So if I go on new Jerseys DMV website..and I'm trying to get a Jersey license and need to know What I need to bring to the DMV..and they don't list 25 dollars on their website...you're okay with that information being left off their website because most people in NJ know that you'll need 25 dollars?

  Because Its more fun to mock your guys 2 sad lives...constant arguments with fans of teams on a message board where neither of you even like any of the common teams lmao how pathetic is that

  It's not like ESPN is the official record book. If someone truly wanted the 100% factual stats, they would look at the record book. That's why I don't really care.
  
  
  Also, if OSU is 0-1, how do they have 6 straight wins? It's just a poorly run network (I could rant for days about how terrible ESPN is), but my hatred with them has nothing to do with a "perceived bias" against OSU that I wouldn't even care about even if it did exist.
  
  I pose this question: Even if ESPN does have a bias against OSU, why does it matter?

  Typical retort by an immature teenager. The unintelligent "(any) colored glasses" is a dead give away.

  S&L, answer this question. My guess is that it matters to you because elevenwarriors posted a story about it, and you are just trying to fit in.

  It doesn't matter, doesnt mean we as fans can't point it out.

  How is my post retarded? In one bullet point of your very well thought out post, you say you don't have to fit in because its an online message board. The second point shows how you fit in and then you ask why I fit in. Again, this comes after you saying you don't have to try to fit in to a message board. If you say you or anyone doesn't have to fit in in your first point, why do you feel the need to say how you fit in and ask how I fit in in the second? And I'm the dumb one.

  It's actually not contradicting, it is two seperate issues. Not that I care, just pointing it out. As an OSU fan, I couldn't give a shit less what ESPN has posted since I think that network is shit anyway, however, I do get the point others are making about how ESPN shows certain bias towards certain schools (whether it be pro or anti-bias).

  I think for some it just validates their opinion that ESPN has a bias against OSU, which in this case may or may not be true, but they certainly love USC.

  As I said abouve, I think it validates some individuals beliefs that ESPN has a bias for some schools and against others. Not saying I believe this or that I don't believe it, just pointing out what I perceive this article validates for others.

  It's contradicting because something that isn't a big deal can't be a big deal because of an inaccurate website. Also, notice I never said that their point was wrong. I just stated that it was whining and asked why it mattered if vacating wins was no big deal.

  The way I view it, the vacating isn't a big deal (which many have stated). But that is a seperate issue from how ESPN reports or presents information. The big deal that people view, IMO, is that ESPN is only presenting one vacated season and not another. It has nothing to do with the actual vacated seasons, but on the actions of ESPN.
  
  I liken it to if ESPN displayed all of USC's national titles and heisman trophy winners over the years, but not Ohio State (or any other school you could insert). They are not accurately reporting in the field they are the self-proclaimed leader of.

  I can't believe you're still arguing this when you obviously know that is not what OSU fans were pointing out.
  
  Most of us could give a rat's ass that the games got vacated -- but how ESPN chooses to list vacated games for various schools speaks volumes about the biases they have...something OSU fans have complained about and were taken to task for saying.
  
  It's further proof we were right about ESPN.
  
  That's it. Nothing else.
  
  All the rest you and karen are posting about is irrelevant BS.

  But on another thread they are supposedly coming out with a big memorabilia story on Alabama. I don't buy the OSU hate bullshit.

  lhs is saying the same thing. Why aren't his posts irrelevant BS?
