You know, it was just by chance that I happened to grab my Purdue hoodie from the closet yesterday. But what a happy chance it was. While I only officially follow cycling, curling and rugby, I am a fan of all things Purdue, and will, therefore, cheer them on in whatever they happen to be doing.
During and after yesterday’s game against Ohio State, the closet Purdue fans emerged from their dark hiding holes , and all the world was filled with smiles.
Upon reflection, I suppose that most of the happy folks we saw were really Michigan fans pleased that *someone* had managed to trounce Ohio State. After all, in Ann Arbor, any time Ohio State fails is cause for celebration…
…but I’m just going to pretend that it was all about Purdue… and that this is a sign of things to come.
As per the contest today, I wanted to draw your attention to a nifty little sports-related comic. The characters are all personified sporting equipment and the artist hales from Canada. As there was no obvious place to hide a code, I’ll just tell you that I am accepting the strip number as the code today. So go forth and win a messenger bag, folks!
Boo! P.U. still sucks! 😉
Oh come on! You should be more accepting of *The* Indiana University.
I’m rather ignorant to College sports, but this was still a really enjoyable strip. And I always love the commentary beneath as it either supplements the strip or helps me understand it on those occasions I need it – it tends to make me laugh and/or nod my head,too.
There is a school of thought in the comics community that says that those of us who add “supplementary” material below the strip are relying on a crutch. However, I enjoy it when the extra comments invite discussion, so they’re here to stay.
Bah-humbug to those webcomic Scrooges. …er, do you mind that this makes you Tiny Tim?
God Bless the webcomics, every one!
There is but ONE, sir, and it’s not P.U.!
Clearly, it’s Ivy Tech. Or maybe IUPUI…
Okay, sir. We have found some common ground. Having started my career at IUPUI, I am willing to bank on its innate Purdueness and call it the Indiana University…
Shame they can’t move it down to Bloomington though… love that town!
A Buckeye is a worthless nut.
You’re preaching to the choir, sir! Preaching to the choir…
