Jalapeño Zippy Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 I love your brother but his quote on www.clevelandbrowns.com really was a punch in the face to Zips fans.Quote:Massillon Washington High School grad and Akron University guard Andy Alleman's stock appears to be rising after a solid time in the 40-yard dash at the combine.He said he'd love to stay in Ohio for his pro career."It would feel great," he said. "I was born and raised in Ohio. If it's college, you're a Buckeye fan. The pros, a Cleveland fan. It'd be a great opportunity. I'd be happy wherever I go but Cleveland would be a great place to be."http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/article.php?id=6545That is just wrong!

skip-zip Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Sure, there's certainly more Suckeyes fans in Ohio than fans for any other school. But Ohio has plenty of people that are dedicated to one of the many MAC schools also. Honestly, Ohio State's biggest competitor for fans in Ohio is, unfortunately, Michigan. Especially if you live up in that NW corner of Ohio, around the Toledo area. It's actually pretty well split between Ohio State and Michigan, and I know quite a few Suckeyes fans up in that area that would vouch for that being the truth.However, I really don't care. I've lived in Ohio for over 40 years, and I am a Zip fan, and couldn't care less what happens to anyone else.Of course, I wish Alleman had not said that. But he's played in front of an empty Rubber Bowl enough times that he (and I can't blame him) probably doesn't feel like he owes any loyalty to Akron.

Jalapeño Zippy Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Seriously, get over it Jalapeno.Get over what? The fact that a University of Akron Zips football player who is preparing to be drafted to the NFL is publicly singing praise to a school other than his own. NO! That is not acceptable and never will be. To steal a line from the AK-Rowdies "THAT'S ERRONEOUS ON ALL ACCOUNTS!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one request! If he ever makes it in a starting line-up for a Monday Night Football game and he introduces himself he has to say "Andy Alleman - THE University of Akron"Also if he gets drafted by the Browns, I am going to have to meet up with your dad and have some of his amazing Chili!

Hey man, relax...Andy acknowledges his opportunity that he had to play at Akron. He didn't have to come from pitt, you're right, but Akron needed him. You can't deny that there are more osu fans than Zips fans, but trust me...there is no love for osu, he just stated facts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
