Go Bucks!

I was blessed enough last night to be able to watch the Ohio State Buckeyes play in the Alamo bowl on TV. That was probably the best the team has looked all year.

Early in the year, I was very unimpressed with the team. They were barely beating teams like Troy State and Cincinnati. I predicted about 4 or 5 losses. Well, at mid-season, it looked much worse than that They already were about 5 and 3 with the tough part of the Big 10 schedule coming up.

But good ol’ Jim Tressel righted the ship and the Bucks won 5 of their last 6 games, including a thumping of Michigan. They then finished off the season with a beating of Oklahoma State.

Next year, barring injury, this is easily a top 10 team.

A good night it was!

-Tomorrow night (New Year’s) I’m heading out on the town to celebrate. I’m looking forward to see how different/similar they celebrate it here.

-I started reading the Michael Chrichton novel Airframe yesterday. I love reading his books and this one has me hooked already.

Update on the score. We have a new contestant, too: Joe S 6, Ang 6 (Credit only for one on the 29th), Sis 4, Sis-in-law 3, Tara 3, Pops 2, Heather S 2, Carly 2, Sarah 2, Chad 1, Me 1.

Wow, I’m really slacking. I’m in last place.
