Okay, so technically when a Buckeye student takes a crap that’s a better product of tOSU than the vodka/ hatchet wielding MC. But this would have to be up the scale at least when it comes to interesting discussion topics. Trevon D. Logan, an economics professor at tOSU has spent some of his […]

Yes, yes, yes. That was a good win last week… but I’m not entirely certain why it was such a surprise. I’m almost offended for the players that many of the fans stormed the field after the game; that’s a pretty bad indictment about how low their expectations were coming into Martin Stadium […]

[The Elephant Walk is my somewhat regular column on Oakland Athletics baseball. Results, performances, transactions or other thoughts I might have about the A’s]

Can You Say Ownage.. How About Stonage?
As I pointed out yesterday, the A’s swept the Giants to be 5-1 on the season against their Bay Area rivals. At said event, a […]

The best team in the Bay Area is of course the Oakland Athletics. Thanks to a 2-0 win today, the A’s completed a three game sweep of the San Francisco Giants; the 3 wins make the season series 5-1 in favor of the A’s. Some highlights of the most recent series:
