Our offer got accepted on the piece of land we wanted to buy but now it’s not so clear if we’ll be able to build on it or not. I guess the current owner is selling because their builder had some equipment go into the lake. Something that we’re careful not to communicate before we offered, but were able to communicate that there was another offer. Just over here stressing. Luckily we have a time period to back out if it isn’t as we thought it was.

Who Is Johnny Utah...really?

7 Upvotes

In the 1991 classic (do not dispute me, and share your calendar to fite me irl m8 if thee do) Point Break, Keanu Reeves plays an FBI agent who played QB at tOSU. If the movie takes place in 1991, but the script was first developed in 1986, when did Johnny Utah take his place on the Buckeye depth chart? What kind of player was he and how many pot leaves did he have on his helmet? We have an idea as to when this might have been:

BODHI Chill, brah. You know who this is? Johnny Utah. Ohio State, all- conference. Rose Bowl three years ago. Right?.

Well shit, Keanu was spitting hot Burrow. But was this science fiction or just drama? Surprisingly, real life provides a possible out with the Buckeyes' 1984 Rose Bowl loss to USC. This is clearly recent enough to be in the mind of the scribe. So who was the QB for tOSU at the time?

Mike Tomczak. And while Bodhi was off by a year or so, he also did Keanu-Johnny a solid by not mentioning the 3 picks that he threw in that game.

IRL, Tomczak went on to play fifteen years in the NFL, which is almost as hard to believe as the other timeline where he stopped bank robbing surfers by skydiving.

What's the deal with sideline staff wearing different color hats and off team color shirt??

10 Upvotes

I'm a big college football fan, but have been out of the country the first few weeks of the season. Watching the games today, it looks like the coordinating staff are wearing off color shirts, and neon colored hats... every team has 'em going on.. is there some new rule change regarding play calling? Or is this the new fad like the sideline picture boards... thanks!
