BUY KIRK’S HOUSE!
Kirk Herbstreit has his Columbus, Ohio home for sale, meaning he’s got either upgrade or transfer plans afoot for the Herbstreit clan. TSD’s not sure where he’s going, but the pics of the place make it seem like a nice buy even in the worst American real estate market in bleems. Is that a horseshoe-shaped stairway with a horseshoe shaped archway at the top? Yes, yes it is.

Herbstreit construction: homes for men, and their highlights.
Tressel’s house in in there, too, and sadly there’s no visible brothel, trebuchet big enough to fire a man with, or fountain of blood in the picture. Those must be in the back.

Well done, sir!
Lancaster, OH salutes you.

That Parsons Realty link is 2 years old.
I have driven past all of those houses, and regardless of what the pictures show, Herbstreit, Tressel, and Spielman all have amazing houses. Herbstreit’s new house is hardly a “mcmansion” and looks very nice. My only surprise about his house is that it is close to the road so he probably doesn’t have a lot of privacy. That is why Tressel moved supposedly. To many people stopping at his house and bothering him (Buckeyes fans? No way that’s true.)
Spielman’s house is very nice looking on the outside and he has a great yard.
Sad to hear Herbstreit is moving. Hopefully he’ll be back in Columbus at some point. Bristol,CT is no place to raise a family and my guess is property taxes are 30 times as much as Columbus. Plus, he doesn’t want his kids growing up to be Colin Cowherds.

Acorns,
I guess I can add you to the list……. why so angry? Why does my “suburban consumerism” piss you off so much? Obviously you think yourself much better than me, why bother your obviously blissful existence with such lowly midwestern rubes like myself?

32, what makes you think this is about Ohio or anywhere in particular? It’s America with all its suburban consumerism wonderment. Read 23 again, slowly, and then go drown your own bitterness with an ice cold 2-for-1 at Applebee’s.

“McMansions” is a term invented by bitter yuppies in NYC and Boston as they try and convince themselves that their 600 sq. ft. 3rd story walk up is actually worth paying $2000 a month in rent.

DC Trojan #29 — I would assume the guy from “Taint Lick” either works for a faceless corporation doing, IT, or maybe corporate sales — not that there is anything wrong with either. Really, that guy can exist anywhere in the USA, from sea to shining sea. Beltway Bandit is a good possibility for our mythical friend, indeed.

Y’ever heard the name of William Tecumseh Sherman?
Yeah, I went there.

Haybeav,
Don’t you miss being in a geographic location that has a false sense of football superiority?

#1 through #30,
How does one become so angry? I’d have to think the midwest somehow raped your mothers or ran over your collective dogs.

We all know he’s moving to Eugene. As he stated at College Gameday “no humidity in Eugene”. As an Oregon grad, no I’m not biased. Once you get passed the hippies, it’s a great place. Unlike Berkeley, our hippies plant trees, they don’t live in them.
Go Ducks! Eugene is your home Herbie!

Brian @ 23 - does your mythical resident of Taint Lick Meadows happen to have a backstory that includes working for a federal IT contractor in Reston VA? Because this mythical person is suspiciously close to a composite of most of my colleagues.

#10…Erin lives in Dunwoody? So does my favorite ex -fiance of the dawg variety…damn, you just can’t hide good taste. Wonder if they’re neighbors? Maybe the ex could introduce me… if only she was still talkin’ to me. Well she will sooner or later…its a matter of time…they all do. Dammit.
Oh, and Kirk’s ex-house sucks. Horseshoe bullshit and all.
