Chum Bucket

Welcome to the Monday Bucket O' Chum, where any and every topic of off-season conversation is fair game. (Well, um, any and every topic that won't get you blocked permanently from FishStripes, that is. Family site and what have you).

If the Buckeyes and their brilliant victory over Penn State Saturday are at the forefront of your mind, by all means, get the conversation started. If you want to vent about your crappy Monday, discuss foreign policy or health care reform, we're all ears... Well, we're maybe not all ears, but we're at least a small percentage ears.

If all else fails, you could even resort to discussing the Marlins. That tends to be a favorite topic around these parts, for some odd reason.
