So obnoxiously lame. I guess when Miami does “DA U” is up there with it.

Do former osu players with an M in their name refuse to say it also? Lolol

You are triggered because someone is saying the whole name of their university?

It’s not just athletes - basically everything and everyone associated with OSU emphasizes “The”.

I respect their collective commitment to the brand - not easy to pull off.

I've always kind of wondered how Kent State, Cleveland State, and Youngstown State have felt about that.

I just don't understand it. Is it the only state university in Ohio, so it is "the" Ohio state university since there is only one?

And if it is the school's whole name, why isn't their website tosu.edu, not osu.edu? You know, since that is the while name?

The first version of the website in 1997 welcomed you to "The Ohio State University"

I don’t understand why they can’t grasp that it’s the name of the school.

This, though, is how you know it’s lame af.

Y’all have to “MaTtEr oF faCt” us with it.

It’s the most try hard fake hubris made up shite in sports.

People recognize it.

There’s no need for OSU fans to pull this lame song and dance with it.

It’s corny as hell. Always has been and they are the only ones who think otherwise.

No one made a big deal about it until we copyrighted the name to include "The" and everyone started clowning us.

We leaned into it. Then people started creating merchandise with it on it and the University went back to court trying to expand the copyright.

In 1997, you had to type out a long tailed url. Most sites made the URL as short as possible to alleviate that. You are now critiquing decisions from the beginning of the internet, aka "grasping at straws"

Say you don't know how copyright infringement works without saying you don't know how copyright infringement works.
