People love to hate Ohio State. 

This year, the expectations for the Buckeye football team are lower than in the past. With the injury of our starting quarterback, the weight of carrying the team might be too heavy for his replacement.

Watching your team lose is never fun, but it's even worse when there's a constant crowd of people telling you how happy they are that you lost. The bitterness of these same people are what make winning twice as awesome. 

There are times when a fan might want to stop cheering so loud or wearing such obnoxious spirit wear, but these fans will not be found in Columbus. Win or lose, the most important part of a team is their fans. Loyalty and dedication to wear scarlet and gray with pride no matter what the score is. Our fans are unlike any other, rumored to be the best damn fans in the land.

This is what I love most about being a Buckeye. Nothing will keep our fans from showing off how much we love our team, no matter how much we're annoying you. I find that more often than not, those who relish in a Buckeye loss are usually fans of teams averaging two wins per season. When you choose to root on the Bucks, you're making a conscious decision to not care how much people may hate you. 

A lot of pride can be taken in having true fans, and not having bandwagons as our major fan base. Sports mean so much to our culture as a school and is a huge reason most of us decided to attend college at The Ohio State University. We aren't fair weather fans. We aren't phased by tweets that every win in our 12 and 0 season was a fluke. You can call us overrated. If people didn't hate us so much, winning would only be half as great.

So please, keep on keeping on. There's nothing that can be said or done to stop us annoying you with how much we love our Buckeyes. What they probably don't know is how much entertainment we get from their resentment. 

Oh, and go Bucks.
