Watch A Willoughby South Receiver Make A Crazy Odell Beckham Jr-like One Handed Catch

OBJ WHO?!?!

 And this catch comes to you via the Willoughby South-Mayfield football game on Friday night which Mayfield won 37-21.

Dang. I give it 9.8 out of 10. If it was a touchdown that baby’s getting a 10. The receiver’s name is Andre Smith and if he keeps making catches like this then I’d say there’s a future for him at the collegiate level.

OU Oh Yeah; Ohio University Tops Playboy’s List As Top Party School Of 2015

Sorry, Miami University, but OU’s year-round antics are hard to trump. Athens is home to one of the country’s largest Halloween block parties—a drunken fete so epic it attracts such sponsors as the infamous caffeinated alcohol Four Loko. Court Street, which connects the campus to Athens’s dining district, is a barhopper’s dream: The tiny half-mile stretch boasts 18 bars. And thanks to statewide decriminalization of marijuana possession, students frequently toke up at the appropriately named Bong Hill. The debauchery escalates further at #Fest, OU’s take on Electric Daisy Carnival, where students double-fist Solo cups while bouncing to the sounds of Diplo, Wiz Khalifa and Kendrick Lamar.


OU OH YEAH

Now I’ve only been to Athens twice in my life (Palmerfest in 2009 and 2010) but in those two experiences I was able to gather that it truly is a magical place. Beautiful girls everywhere, backyard concerts, kegs, beer bongs, friendly people, burning couches in the middle of the street… just the epitome of the classic college town.

One of my biggest regrets is not going to a big state school like OU, OSU, or Miami of Ohio. Sure I loved Mount Union but nothing compares to the big time parties, athletic events, and social scene at the state schools. Some advice for high school seniors: If you aren’t on scholarship and playing NCAA sports, go to one of Ohio’s state universities.

And if you were wondering how the top 10 shook out, here’s how it looks:

Here’s Playboy’s Top 10…
#1 Ohio University
#2 University of Iowa
#3 Florida State University
#4 Tulane University
#5 University of Illinois
#6 University of Texas
#7 Syracuse University
#8 University of Wisconsin
#9 University of Mississippi
#10 University of Michigan

Kind of cool that the state of Ohio plays football better and parties harder than any other state in America.

Avon kid arrested after tweeting about plans to shoot police officers

Lake-MUG

From The Chronicle-Telegram:

“AVON — A local man was arrested for threatening physical harm to law enforcement officers via Twitter earlier this month.

Lewis Lake, 18, of the 3100 block of Stoney Ridge Road, was arrested and charged with making a terroristic threat and aggravated menacing after he allegedly posted the threats.

Avon City Prosecutor Richard Kray said Lake posted comments saying he was going to get some guns and shoot police.

Kray said Lake made a series of threats on social media in which police were brought up a number of times. He didn’t provide specifics about whether threats were made in a single day, over a period of time or the exact phrases Lake used.

According to Avon Lake Municipal Court records, Lake has not entered a plea. He is scheduled to appear in court at 9 a.m. Sept. 24.”

There’s dumb people, there’s people who think Moe’s is better than Chipotle and then there’s folks like Mr. Lake here. Sure, let’s fire up some tweets about shooting guns at the one group of people whose job it is to, you know, stop people from shooting other people with guns.  And then they ARRESTED YOU? In other shocking news, the sky is blue, water is wet and the Browns starting quarterback was concussed after the first series of the year. Christ.

This is like the scholars who tease horses at a zoo and take a hoof to the nuts, or the bully at school who mocks the class nerd relentlessly only to find out the kids parents have had him in Jiu Jitsu since he was 8. Except Lewis here didn’t have the fortitude to walk on down to the station and poke the bear himself…he hid behind his iPhone. Good luck in court, thunderthumbs.

PS It’s funny though, “terroristic threats” and “aggravated menacing” are pretty spot-on when used to describe my reactions to the first 60 minutes of Cleveland Browns football this season

PPS We don’t do a “Chronicle.northcoastnow.com Comments of the Week” feature here at Bottlegate, but maybe we should start
