Compare the stats. Thomas is a 1,000 yard receiver and leads the Big Ten in all purpose yards. Yup, that's right. More than any Buckeye. And yet, you will probably give me a whole bunch of OSU stats and fight to the death to prove you are right. Go ahead. Our offense kills yours. He's only a 1,000 yard receiver because you have no other threats on your offense. Brian Robiskie had 885 yards despite only having four more receptions than the No. 2 guy. Your No. 2 guy had no even half of the recpetions as Thomas, so it's pretty damn easy to get over 1,000 yards when your team throws to you 75 times (By comparison, Robiskie has 885 yards on 50 receptions). Saying your offense kills ours is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. We are up there with you guys in the statistical categories despite the fact that our starters only played in the first half of 7 of our games.

He still has to make the damn catches. Have you seen the types of plays he has made this year? Not a lot of players can handle being the only threat on the team. A lot of players make a few plays, but Thomas is consistent. Clutch catch, after clutch catch. Good kick return after good kick return. He's a reason why we are 7-5. Ringer and Caulcrick have rushed for over 2,000 yards and have more than 25 touchdowns, while Hoyer has over 2,500 yards passing. I'm sorry if I offended you on the OSU thing, that was more like a joke. I probably should have added a smiley. I admit my mistake there.
But you insulted my teams player and last I checked, leading the Big Ten in all purpose yards is a big thing and being #3 in the nation in receiving whether you are the only target or not. We rely on him to make plays and he comes through. A lot of guys get the same attention he gets and yet they don't have a bunch of all purpose yards or lead the conference.
Sure, when you breakdown stats and stuff, maybe Devin Thomas doesn't have the stats as other players who share the production, but it works with Javon Ringer and Jehuu Caulcrick.
Stats aside, Devin Thomas is a damn good receiver and Jimmy T knows that. He went out of his way in a press conference and said we need to stop this guy. And your defense did. I give you props.
But to insult him and say he's not on the level as a freshman? Give me a damn break.

Wow David, forgive us for being passionate about our teams. College football is my sport. And Ohio State is my team in that sport. Born and raised in the state of Ohio you are taught one thing from birth and that is to love Ohio State. So yeah, forgive us for being passionate about our teams. Not our fault you aren't.

My cousin was born in Ohio but was raised to be a Cincinatti Bearcats Fan. He even hates Ohio State...does that mean he's not an Ohio-ian or whatever you call citizens of that state

Point is, we all turn into arrogant douche bags when people insult our players/teams. show me a post where I resorted to namecalling or other insults and you have a point, or a post where I talk as if I was on the field. Come up with any insult you want about GT football or basketball, you'll probably be right. Insult the Panthers anyway you want and I'll say you are being too soft.

You actually think I will take the time to look through your most recent posts trying to find something? Hell no. Wow David, forgive us for being passionate about our teams.

Just another reason I hate Ohio State. And when Michigan fans beat us (or anyone meaningful, for that matter), quite a few of them act like arrogant idiotic world-beating pricks. Just another reason I hate Michigan.

Ok, my point was that he acts like an arrogant idiot at all times, ESPECIALLY when it pretains to Michigan. He and Spartan are the worst. I don't go out of my way to insult or deride Michigan State or Ohio State, yet those two morons do and I'M the arrogant one?

Actually DB did tonight, and you have gotten upset after your losses. Another big difference, your program has been good the last couple years. I also gave you my calm comments. Sportsbuck, tell me UM isn't one of the most arrogant fan bases in the country. You should know being a Buckeye. Maybe it's just because I am here in Michigan. It may be that way. But after tonight, I've had about enough of it. Oh give me a break. Seriously. Tired of UM fans? Again, try being in ohio as a UM fan who has to hear shit after all the defeats to OSU, nevermind after the App.State debacle this year. And I hate to break it to you my friend, when you're a fan of the enemy, everyone will take shots at you. So it's not just UM fans. You're a fan of the enemy....everyone will take shots at you.....the same fans who jump on Spartan fans and take full advantage of their bragging rights after asserting their dominance over us, and then Ohio State fans do the same to you and y'all get bent out of shape. Maybe I'm missing the point here, but I think everyone involved is being hypocritical....

Maybe I'm missing the point here, but I think everyone involved is being hypocritical.... Actually, if you're already forgetting, Spartan is the one taking constant shots at myself and the other Michigan fans on the board. The only comment I made at anytime was after his rant and I simply said that we had bragging rights (which we do.). I don't go around like Sportsbuck and drop the phrase "4 in a row" like i'm some hotshot who actually played on the team. Then I get called arrogant for bringing up their loss to Illinois when we were bombarded with App.State jokes. Again, just seems like he's the biggest hypocrite here and that's all I was saying.

No, I haven't forgotten about Spartan. I worry about him sometimes. And I don't really feel like going back and reading all this and likely sacrificing more than a few brain cells in the process. I'll give you the fact though that some people obsess a lot more than they should. I have nothing else to say here....

everyone here is acting like they got multiple rods stuck up their asses and cant get em out. I can understand being passionate about a team and celebrating big wins and beating rivals and shit...hell, if the Dallas Cowboys win the superbowl I'll be one happy son of a bitch in the world and brag until I cant brag no more.
But this is a damn sports forum and you all are actin like lil girls.
