STILLWATER – Saturday was a special day, an emotional day with the 20th year since 9/11 and the planes being flown into and destroying the World Trade Center Towers in New York City, the plane crashing into the Pentagon in Washington D.C., and the brave passengers that commandeered and crashed the other plane terrorists planned to crash for destruction.

I wouldn't bet on Martin next week. Ankle injuries are notoriously hard to predict.

They need to get some OL recruits to start showing up.

I hope Gundy works his normal away game prep for these guys Saturday night. Having a home shot at a bigger name/power conference team, and after taking a beating in Stillwater not long back.....and now getting snubbed (again) by Big XII expansion, I expect a very fired up/hard to see (in all blue under the lights) Boise Bronco team.

A patch? A gray patch, and gray uniforms?

That's our tribute?

Well, hell... thanks for letting me know.

I've spent the last two days watching the college games (some recorded), and noticing how all of the other teams (especially home teams) had done something special, with red/white/blue on their uniforms, on their numbers, on their fields, etc.

but nothing for OSU... nothing. I looked and looked and looked... nothing by OSU. Even during the game when they wanted to talk about the day, they showed pictures of our flag flying.

I was sorely disappointed in OSU for not having gone to any effort at all to pay tribute on 9/11

I'm glad you set it straight... we had a gray patch that nobody could see from the stands or from their TV sets.

We should have done something. That was embarrassing. A patch? seriously, a gray patch?

Geez, you'd think we'd at least have a moment of silence, a flyover, US flag bearing team entrance, helmet stickers, the military family of the game and other in-game tributes.

Oh, wait…..

I guess you had to be there.

oh hey... the troll is back.

where have you been? I thought you left with your tail between your legs after NJ beat you up last time.


and yes, you would have to be there to see that, because they didn't show it on TV, where many folks were watching, and guess what, it didn't show up in any of the post-game highlight shows either (not that we had many highlights).

You know what.... you're right... I bet OSU is the only stadium that had moments of silence and a fly over.

our effort was visually inept, regardless of your continual attempts to attack me.

EDIT... oh, and the $20 flag... yep that's going all out!!! Can't leave that out.

So, OSU is responsible for the TV production and failure to highlight the tributes? Are the tributes for the TV audience or the fans in the stands?

Dude, if you actually went to games and knew how they were conducted by the school, you might have taken pause before you posted an embarrassing rip job on the school and mockery of RA.

never, not once, did I mock RA. I was grateful that he made the patch known.

sorry charlie.... if you weren't a troll out to get me, you would have realized that I said ALL THE OTHER SCHOOLS had VISIBLE displays on their UNIFORMS or ON THE FIELD, or elsewhere

but NOT OSU.

what I said was that there was no visible evidence that OSU was even acknowledging the event (the patches were too small and the wrong color to stand out).

I never said OSU did not do anything, I said the way it was done was different, and IN MY OPINION much less noticeable to the entire watching world.

leave me alone you troll.

you simply troll the message boards looking for way to attack me.

two days later, me and countless others wondering why OSU didn't do something.....a gray patch? goodness.

now get out of the thread, you're making yourself look foolish again.

Right, no mocking there. Gotcha.

absolutely NOT. No mocking. Not there, not intended to be there.

I was SINCERE.... and I already told you that, but here you are trolling once again.

I had no idea that was our tribute until Robert said so, and I clearly expressed my disappointment in that meager display, AND thank Robert for letting us know.

Those comments were in no means or manner directed towards Robert, they were expressions of disappointment in OSU.... as the entire post pointed out.

I'm am sincerely sorry that you are so distracted by my presence that you fail to be able to comprehend what is said, and you instead twist it into some deranged commentary that you then try to associate with me.

Leave me alone. I already told you flat out that I wasn't mocking Robert, but here you are trolling again.

can you just produce a list of things that you allow me to say so that we don't have to keep repeating these incessant attacks on my observations.
