We are sporadic at best here at Bang for Your Buck. We would, however, lose our blogging license if we did not post this. I am serious.

In the tragically truncated Judd Apatow show Freaks and Geeks, a character asks Geek Bill why he’s always smiling on the verge of laughter. He says it’s because he replays movies in his head. If you should ever see a Buckeye smiling for no apparent reason, bet dollars to pesos he’s viewing this clip in his brain.

I really thought this was a joke

Right. So glad one story thread has provided two “Shark Eat Plane” moments. So glad.

Pete Carrol possibly out at Southern Cal? Who could see that coming?

This is the only face that mirrors my own on hearing the news. What if Tressel left with a similar lack of warning? Well, that would be as bad as a shark eating your plane two days before your wedding. We’ll run down that doomsday scenario this week in UWeekly. Until then, pray.

In what most people would agree could be a remarkable recovery, the determined Evan Turner may make an early return to the Buckeyes against Indiana tonight.

Doctors determined he would be about 8 weeks after a nasty fall on a dunk attempt fractured two vertebrae in his back. Instead, he has reportedly been cleared to play after a little more than 5 weeks.

OSU has dropped has lost half of their last six games without him, including two straight to start the Big Ten, a first for Thad Matta-coached teams.

I guess we won the mfin’ Rose Bowl. Catch UWeekly this week in stands Wednesday for probably like 11 articles and columns on the subject, but for now, just enjoy life. As for Terrelle Pryor, this is how you ought to feel:

As for the rest of the Buckeyes: wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

In the words of the late great Dale Earnhardt, “Bury that monkey!” Lots that needs work, but hot damn was that a good game. A truly inspired game plan executed very, very well by the young Buckeyes. Why are these rebuilding seasons always so good? I don’t want to plagiarize my own future column(s), but eff everyone who called Pryor an arm-punter or a bust or -come on- a wide receiver. Seriously. You all fail football. FOREVER.

P.S. We need a real line coach. kthanxbai!
