You might be an MU Ohio grad...


Thanks to Basketbawful for this shot of Wally World. But only an Ohioan could truly appreciate its significance. See, Wally is sporting the latest in the Miami University of Ohio Douchebag Threads Line. Affliction T-Shirt. Check. Oversized puffy coat. Check. Faux (or possibly real) animal fur hood liner. Check. Perma-spiked hair thanks to overindulgence of styling gel and/or murray's hair creme. Check. Seriously, Wally could play 40 minutes, sweat off 5 lbs. and his hair would still be spiked. Check. Ira Newble, the only black man to ever attend MU Ohio, may have softened the stereotypes, but Wally and Ben Roethlisberger are keeping it alive. Which makes me wonder if Roethlisberger even knows that his team made the Super Bowl. There is no way that his brain is functioning after that hit against the Browns. I don't mean to compliment a Steeler, but Roethlisberger is the second greatest zombie football player of all time (Steve Young has to be #1 and Tim Couch is a distant #428). I digress, though. Wally -- you're the man. You guard guys 6 inches taller than you. You hustle every minute you're on the floor. Your flat-footed jumper is a thing of beauty and grace. Your expiring contract, whether used by the trade deadline or in the offseason, will be directly responsible for keeping LeBron in Cleveland. But you are a douchebag. Lay your Oxford, Ohio sense of style to rest. Lose the affliction t-shirt and puffy coat and wear something respectable next time you represent the Cavs on national television. Douche.
