Remembering my father after the OSU U of M game

Amazing how dumb Coach Ryan Day has become in less than 24 hours!

I've been listening to pundits and callers on sports radio while reading articles about the OSU vs UM game and just shaking my head. It doesn't seem that long ago Coach Day was being hailed as one the greatest head coaches in college football but now, he's become incredibly stupid. Losing two years in a row to your heated rival stings but didn't Coach Harbaugh lose five years in a row to Ohio State?
To their credit, UM stuck with him and he has built a solid program.

I live in Ohio but am not an Ohio State football fan, basketball and other sports yes but not football. There are a lot of fair weather Ohio State fans and many of those are downright rude and sore losers when it happens which isn't all that often. But when it does, that is a guilty pleasure of mine lol. I have to admit though the sweetest Ohio State football losses were the times Woody Hayes lost lol. My Father (I miss you dad) and brothers all enjoy it and I admit Dad helped us with that opinion. My father didn't like Woody for two reasons; He wouldn't play Notre Dame and Woody was a really sore loser.

Anyways, I was thinking of my father yesterday during the game and wanted to share this. If there is a heaven up above I am sure my dad has a huge smile on his face. Oh, my mom is 89 and smiled wide when I went to see her at the nursing home earlier this morning. I no sooner walked in her room and she asked if I had seen the score lol. Not the Notre Dame game but Ohio State
