Another successful Christmas has come and gone. I didn’t really ask Santa for much. All I really want is to see my Ohio State Buckeyes spank the Miami Hurricanes in the Fiesta Bowl. No one is giving them a chance except us here in Columbus. We can’t wait.

Just got this in an email from a friend. I had to share it with all the Buckeye fans out there:

A primary teacher starts a new job at a school in Miami, Florida and, trying to make a good impression on her first day, explains to her class that she is a Miami fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they, too, are Miami fans. Everyone in the class raises their hand except one little girl.

The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and says: “Mary, why didn’t you raise your hand?” “Because I’m not a Miami fan,” she replied. The teacher, still shocked, asked: “Well, if you’re not a Miami fan, then who are you a fan of?”

“I’m an Ohio State fan, and proud of it,” Mary replied. The teacher could not believe her ears. “Mary, why are you a Ohio State fan?”

“Because my mom and dad are from Ohio, and my mom is an Ohio State fan and my dad is an Ohio State fan, so I’m an Ohio State fan too!”

“Well,” said the teacher, in a obviously annoyed tone, “that’s no reason for you to be an Ohio State fan. You don’t have to be just like your parents all of the time. What if you mom was a prostitute and your dad was a drug addict and car thief, what would you be then?”

Mary smiled, “I’d be a Miami fan.”
