Being an Ohio State fan isn't fun? Strong reactions to the joys and burdens of following the Buckeyes

Are the expectations for Ohio State football creating a burden that fans feel, and that affects their enjoyment of their very successful program?

On this Thursday Buckeye Talk, Doug Lesmerises once again dives into talk about his joy initiative and the hope that all OSU fans can love following their team. Some texters are sick of this topic already, and maybe so are you. But there are some interesting survey answers in this episode to questions like:

• Does the burden of expectations make rooting for the Buckeyes less fun at all?
• Have you ever thought you cared too much about Ohio State football?
• What is the best type of team to root for?
• Is Ohio State the most successful team you root for?
• Do you root for a second college football team?
• On a scale of 1-10, what's your joy vs. angst when it comes to rooting for the Buckeyes?

There are comparisons made to the best teams in North American sports, and strong words on both sides when it comes to how OSU fans should view and handle expectations.

It's a feelings pod more than a football pod, which sometimes happens here. As always, thanks for listening to Buckeye Talk.
