THE GREATEST FOOTBALL ROOM EVER EVER

the ceiling is noticably unpainted, and you call this passion? I think Michelangelo might disagree.

1. Does he update as sponsors change?

2. If you’re going to get a sick mural, why skimp on the TV? Not a bad TV by any means, but it doesn’t seem to be a prime-time display up to the standards of the rest of the room, however there could easily be a larger set on the opposite end of the room that we cannot see. I proclaim this to be no more ridiculous than the people with the mini Fenway Park whiffle ball fields.

That’s great, but who are the chefs?

Look at the lights/ceiling/air vent—-is that his office?

Dear god, the janitorial staff will not be pleased.

I wonder if that is the same field turf that was just put down at the Shoe?

He definitely made the end zones match with the solid scarlet and white letters trimmed in black.

Thanks Orson, you made my day today! I will refrain from hating Bama for a few minutes today.

#3, Great Googily Moogily!

PS—-Duane “Dewey” Richard

Three first names. Yup, sounds like and SEC fan to me.

How well does vomit come out of field turf?

Not to nitpick, but…no goalposts?

So do the walls throw things at you? If you walk in with another college football sweatshirt on do they spit at you and call you a “fag”.

If it is going to represent the shoe it needs to have these fine qualities.

Is there a smell of urine in the air?

If you try and touch the goal post does a sheriff pop out with enough mace to take down a bear??

Because of the events over the past few months do Florida fans also get a key to this room?

Most days, I’d be pretty impressed by the dedication and talent it would take to do that.

But today I’m still trying to reboot my brain thanks to Phil Motherfucking Steele, so it’s not bad. But PS could do that while impregnating a cheerleading team.

i’ll be honest….i’m disappointed in the bama nation for not being first on this one.

What, no shit-filled styrofoam coolers?

#1, if you’ve ever visited Columbus in October or November, you will recognize that the ceiling, is, in fact, an accurate representation of the sky, sans the lights, of course.

#2, the TV is in the place of the scoreboard’s video screen, which only takes up about 40% of the total scoreboard. This isn’t DK Royal, after all.

This is in the dude’s basement, there is a video of it on Youtube somewhere, its pretty cool. I think he said it took him like a year and a half, but if he did it everyday full time, he could do one in like 5 months.

No, there are no goalposts. With Mike Nugent and Josh Huston for 7 years, they just award OSU the EP or FG just based on past history.

Odell, If you want, i could throw things at you. And I have tried to climb the goalpost and got a firehose of mace to the mug that made me puke and dry heave all over the south end-zone (thats supposed to be safer than the goalpost coming down?)

Bhors—

And I have tried to climb the goalpost and got a firehose of mace to the mug that made me puke and dry heave all over the south end-zone (thats supposed to be safer than the goalpost coming down?)

Heroes come in all colors. We now know one who wears scarlet and gray.

What, no numerals on the stripes – no orange rectangles on the goal line? How would one know when to initiate their dive into the end zone?

As an aside, I had a bean-bag game as a kid that looked just like this, but the center of the “O” was cut out.

Ceiling Cat is watching you lose to Florida.

Also, what was everyone’s thoughts on NCAA08? I thought their wasn’t that much improvement, it was cooler having the 08 guys and everything, but nothing that I was like “wow, im glad they are doing this now” If anything, I noticed that Roughing the QB was called on damn near every other play. Keep in mind im on PS2 though, too.

1. — that’s because there’s not enough room in single-wide trailer bedroom for proper stadium porportions. it would look like a flea circus instead.

That’s in his basement? I assume that means his mom lives upstairs?

I’m pretty sure that NBC is renting this guy’s basement out for their next installment of “To Catch a Predator.”

“Oh I was only here to preach the word of God, I sweaaar.”

Did he think that going by “Dewey” would make him seem less skanky? Sorry, pal, but you’ll always be Duane to me.

#13
There isn’t enough tatoo ink in all of Tuscaloosa for that kind of project.

no need to go to the local library with a room like that.

It’s pretty impressive – but not too surprising -

When I was a child, it was my dream (and intention) that when I grew up and owned my own (out) house, I would paint the script “pitt” in the bowl of my toilet. Young horsechestnut fans dream of owning their own styrofoam coolers.

I can’t wait to see Bucky the Buckeye topiary he is planning for next spring!

bhors, I’m on PS2 as well, and so far I like this year’s installment of NCAA. The gameplay seems more fluid, and the receivers/backs going in motion being integrated into the plays is kickass. Though, I am having trouble getting used to the new controls(I’m still used to ’06). I think the PS3 and 360 versions are more loaded than what us PS2 users got.

Ads come from BW3, Kroger, and Wendy’s.

Yet another reason to hate Ohio State. Inferior ad partners.

The fact that the state of Georgia keeps Kroger alive in the South bothers me to no end. I abhor the Kroger on Washington Road in Augusta for no legitimate reason. Harris Teeter mocks your weak grocer.

As for BW3, I can go to Taco Bell and save $5 or so if I want a food enema.

Kudos to #22. Awesome.

Actually, as an impartial grocery store judge, Wegman’s beats your skinny ass without remorse.

www.wegmans.com

One has to wonder if the scent of vomit, stale beer, and urine are extra? You know, for the complete sensory experience.

The Wendy’s ad makes sense, since Wendy’s headquarters aren’t too far from Columbus.

Ah, that makes me think of Wendy’s new burger: the Baconater.

Try the triple.

Is that giant O behind the endzone always visible even when there are people in the stands?

#20
EA didn’t really do alot for the current gen(PS2, Xbox) consoles this year, because they’re not going to produce NCAA ’09 for either. They program on the 360 and PS3 exclusively now. Basically, they just updated the rosters and did some minor porting over.
Be prepared to drop 400- 600 bucks if you want to play NCAA ’09.

Every once in a while, there comes a time when a man decides it’s time to make a name for himself. A time to leap out into the great ball pit of life, avoid the turds of doubt and failure, and grab hold of something that really means something, that makes difference in this crazy world filled with hollow plastic balls and some turds.

This is the exact opposite of one of those times.

I just noticed – where are the freakin’ Outback Bowl runners-up banners?

Actually given that they are still selling more PS2s than PS3s, they may still put the game out for that console next year even, although there won’t be any more revolutionary changes for the current gen machines. I only got in one game last night and while there were some cool things I noticed, for the most part it played like last year’s version.

Anyone else have massive amounts of turnovers though? ASU vs. SJSU rang up something like 13 fumbles and INTs between the 2 teams. DBs are much, much better at actually making the pick rather than just letting it bounce off their hands this year.

Love it.

GO Bucks.

about the ads….

Kroger is based in Ohio (Cincinnati to be exact)

Wendy’s is based in Dublin (15 minutes from Cbus)

The first ever BW3s was located at tOSU.

Full disclosure: A former employee of Tiburon, I still have many friends that work there. Don’t hold your breath for current gen NCAA next year.

#42
You too? Welcome to the ex-Tiburon EDSBS party!

Nice … I actually worked on NCdub ’04 – ’05.

Oh c’mon…everybody knows tOSU doesn’t have fully-painted endzones. It’s just the simple silver lettering with a red (and maybe white) outline. He fails.

#45: They switched to Field Turf this year and the fully-painted end zones are now a part of it.

You may also notice that the “Buckeyes” in the open end of the Horseshoe in the mural does not match the EA representation. The mural is correct— EA has had it backwards for something like eight years.

Correct. I don’t like how it looks.

I suppose this means his toilet looks like Michigan Stadium?

Many people will say “How can they miss something like that?”. Well, here’s the reason: fixing a small little thing like reversals, etc could mess up 1000 other things. It’s not that they “missed” it, it’s that 1000 right things are better than 1 tiny reversal. Many of the bugs are noted, just not fixed. This is called “Known Shippable”, the warcry for all game testers.

I’ve got it for the PS2, and yes, nothing too different.

I do LOVE how the safeties finally know how to position themselves for the different conditions. Por exemplo, in 07, when calling cover 1, the SS would STILL stay in the back. In 08, he comes up. Call cover 0 and they both come up.

Integrated motion in the plays is GORGEOUS.

Still can’t find the statue of liberty play.

They still haven’t figured out that there is no roughing the kicker if the contact was incidental. So, I just dial that sucker down to 10%, hell, even 0.

I miss JaMarcus Russell.

What’s this? Defensive Lineman stunts? HOORAY!

New music is COOL.

Now, let’s see. Do I want to buy the overpriced PS3 with no rumble or the XBox 360 that has the lifespan of a hamster at one of our 4th of July parties?

Lol .. my 360 just died on Tues. AS SOON AS I PUT NCAA IN!

Irony much ?

Scalz1 #51 – was Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing” playing in the background when your 360 died?

#52
Micro$oft “support” says I’ll get my 360 back and fixed in as little as 6 weeks!! I love buying a 500 piece of electronics, only to have it crap out on me in less then 5 months. Luckily, I pre paid on xbox live, so my 7.99 is being put to good use, with no 360 and all. Got to hand it to Bill Gates, he’s a sharp one.

There is a lot of hate in these replies. Too bad OSU has more national championships than any of your teams in the SEC. Might I point out that the great UF has 2 in 100 years and OSU has 7 in 110 years! Not to mention conference championships, Heismans, and bowl wins. Oh don’t forget the record for number of total draft picks and first round draft picks…yeah. Fuck the SEC. UF’s greatest accomplishment was adding salt to Kool-Aid and calling it Gatorade. Go Fuck yourselves.

Damn, chillax, Danny. I’m a Buckeye, too, but you’ve got to understand how EDSBS works. Everybody hacks on everyone around here, it’s all in good fun. It won’t be long until we’re hacking on Pete Carroll/USC about his philanthropy and their Hollywood mansions, or taking bets one how many trays of cheeseburgers Charlie Weiss will eat in the course of Notre Dame’s first game (and defeat) when their new QB is fed to whatever team of wolves gets to exploit their weaknesses first.

FUN, Danny, all in FUN…

First of all, nice picture of Wuerffel and Spurrier at the top, two class-act individuals.

Secondly, excellent beat-down on the Buckeyes this past year. Congrats to you Gator fans.

Last but not least, the Big Ten has far more tradition and history than the SEZ and thus would never stoop so low as to “assimilate” into a conference lacking the rich history such as that established at Ohio State. Dewey Dew-it exudes the manic football-loving attitude that burns through the veins of the Buckeye faithful.

The north will rise again.

p.s. Do people in Florida really like Joakim Noah?

I live in Florida and go to FSU now. We think Noah looks like an inbred girl. And you’re right, OSU would never stoop to the SEC for millions of reasons. The first would be that I think you have to be in the Southeast to be in the Southeastern Conference, but I wouldn’t expect SEC fans to make that connection. Every team in the SEC considers every other team their arch rival, but then they root for that rival if playing a non-SEC team. Real rivals don’t root for each other, ever. I always want Michigan to lose, even if they were playing against Satan to save my soul. And you SEC fans are fans of the whole conference because that way you have someone to root for when your team gets beaten…real commitment there guys. As for Spurrier, my prof was friends with his roommate back while he was a student at UF. He said the only way you could get along with Spurrier was to agree with everything he said, no matter what. Spurrier is an ego maniac that takes all the credit for wins and blames losses on his teams. That isn’t stand-up to me.

Where do I start? Let’s reply by number:

9. Yeah, where are the goalposts?
27. Bucky is Wisconsin’s mascot.
33. I just had the Baconator the other day. That thing is very nice.
38. The Outback Bowl banners are hanging up next to the last year’s National Championship runner-up, Alamo Bowl champion, 2 Fiesta Bowl champion, and the ‘02 National Championship banners. If you’re going to bash them, talk about the more recent history. Use last year vs. Florida before you bring up Outback Bowls.
48. That would be sweet. Do those toilets exist?
56/57. Joakim Noah is an inbred girl.

1. - The giant O in the endzone is the student section…they hold up cards over their heads at one point in the game to show the O. So, this was painted sometime around the third quarter. LOL
