Is Obama a Buckeye? :-)

Hey, Buckeyes: Why should Palmer apologize?

So Carson Palmer had to apologize — through a team spokesman, no less — and for what, exactly?

Suggesting Ohio State football fans are passionate, confident and convinced the Buckeye program is one of the best in the country?

Folks, this isn’t a crime. It’s the truth.

Who would be upset because a fan of one team openly rooted for that team to “pound” another team? I believe in most cultures this is known as cheering for your side.

But in our culture, our Internet-driven, dumbed-down, hypersensitive culture that grows more hollow by the day, this is behavior deserving of reprimand.

Ridiculous, just not as ridiculous as those Jim Tressel sweater vests.
