He's been at it since about 2002 or so. He should be a master.

I'm from Chicago. I was just a FIB up there.

I got along pretty well with the "coasties" while in Madison, although they weren't called that when I was there. But being in Ag Engineering, I was always around Wisconsin folk. Good people most all of them, including that one kid from NYC, of that one religion, that I hung out with all the time. Bastage beat me out for tops in the class by 0.02 on the GPA. MF'r.

i have used "wiscy" at just about every chance- at first for the abbreviated simplicity, but later because i just plain like it...

being from tennessee, i wouldn't know what the hell someone was talking about if it was referred to as 'tenny'... or living in the carolina's, would look upon someone as if bone structure was growing from their forehead if they called themselves collectively 'carols'.... i once pissed off @CWSooner  using okey shorthand for, well, okey... i use it all the time now just because..... but wiscy? (with a C) that's just plain cool, or as the Big12 crew likes to say it's "hella cool", isn't that right @CharleyHorse46 ? ....

my connection to Michigan is through the iron region of the UP... they have a bad rap- but hell, i like it up there, and prefer to drive through wiscy to get there.  they think i talk funny.  it gets me free beer sometimes in the bars... i tell them my name is tenny and they don't ask anything or even look at me funny.  they're ALL packer fans- i screwed up badly last year announcing that i liked Aikman and Buck... they stopped giving me beer when i did that so i had to move to another bar, where the guy at the bar had a name Laura or laury or something real close to that, so i told him with a straight face my name was carol...

people take that aikman/buck thing way too damn serious.  

haji's hate to be called MF'r... i once missed two Qatari fighter pilots come to blows ending with one shooting the other in the face (dude lived) by about five minutes... because one jokingly called the other a MF'r.... hell, that could have been me.  i use that descriptor as often as i do 'darlin' when discussing my wife, truck, or boat...

and since we're discussing things that really don't matter- just today i was standing outside polluting the air with an american spirit adjacent a group of Marines who were present for some training... young guys... i don't understand them anymore.. young people, that is... they laugh at shit that is only humorous (to them) because it's random.... one of them was talking about 'leave' season approaching where most of them head out for the holidays- and said "i'll be free as a bird for at least a week or two".... there was a pause while everyone lit their smokes, and another of them said one of those random things, but this one actually caught me funny and and elicited a giggle- he said "i don't know why everyone say's 'free as a bird'.... i've never seen a bird just fuckin' off"... well... he has a point.

none of them must be from okey because they all laughed, too.  maybe they're sconners, mostly.  i thought i hears a few discussions about "bah's" though- which if you don't know are what yankees call watering holes- not the yorker yankees, but the ones way up north of them but not so north they're willing to "live free or die".  

anyway.... somebody come over and answer my water heater question in the general board so i'll shut up.

Is Cheese Head still permissible?

What about Spoilermakers?
Spoilermakers is a badge of honor and is perfectly acceptable.
In fact, it will be most fitting after Saturdays game.

Back to the game:

I said upthread that I thought this was HUGE for the B1G-W race but that didn't get any discussion because the thread turned into badge vs world on Sconnie/Whisky.  

If Wisconsin wins:
The B1G-W race is basically over.  The Badgers will be 3-0 with wins over three B1G-W opponents (NU, UNL, PU).  The best any other B1G-W team could possibly be is 3-1 but:
  • That would be Nebraska and it would require Nebraska to beat Ohio State which certainly seems unlikely, and
  • Even if Nebraska does beat tOSU to move to 3-1 they would still effectively by two games behind Wisconsin due to the H2H loss.  
There is even a chance that, with a win, Wisconsin could effectively take a three-game lead in the B1G-W over all but Iowa.  That would require:
  • Wisconsin beating Purdue
  • Nebraska losing to Ohio State
  • Minnesota losing to Michigan State
  • Illinois losing to Rutgers
If all of that happens the new B1G-W standings will be:
  • 3-0 Wisconsin
  • 2-2 Nebraska (with a loss to Wisconsin)
  • 1-2 Iowa 
  • 1-2 Purdue (with a loss to Wisconsin)
  • 1-2 or 0-3 Northwestern (with a loss to Wisconsin)
  • 0-3 Minnesota
  • 0-3 Illinois
There just isn't any plausible way for any of those teams to come back and win the B1G-W.  

If Purdue wins:
The B1G-W race gets REALLY interesting.  The new standings would be:
  • 2-1 Wisconsin (loss to Purdue)
  • 2-1 Purdue (loss to B1G-E team)
  • 3-1 or 2-2 Nebraska (loss to Wisconsin and possibly B1G-E team)
  • 1-2 Iowa (losses to two B1G-E teams)
  • 1-2 or 0-3 Minnesota (losses to Purdue and one or two B1G-E teams)
  • 1-2 or 0-3 Illinois (losses to UNL, Iowa, and possibly B1G-E team)
  • 1-2 or 0-3 Northwestern (loses to Wisconsin and one or two B1G-E teams)
In that case Purdue and Iowa would control their own destiny.  Additionally, Wisconsin, Nebraska, and any of the other three (MN, ILL, NU) that win this weekend would still be in the race.

Bitch please.  I've been at this since the last millennium.

As for the game.....We're going to lose....badly.

This is not me sandbaggin'.  This is a statement of fact.  Purdue is better this year, I can see that with my own eyes, but we are not on the level yet where we can effectively compete against an upper level team.  The Michigan game proved that too me.

We will keep it close for a half, likely a 14-7 ish score.  Then Wisconsin's ground game will take over in the second half.

.... or as the Big12 crew likes to say it's "hella cool", isn't that right @CharleyHorse46 ? ....       
Perhaps you arbitrarily (i.e. halfassedly) muddle everyone west of the Mississippi into one big collection of people you call "the Big 12 crew" but there are actually distinct pockets of humanity out here. 
Hella is an American slang term that originated in East Oakland, California, but has since spread to become native slang to all of northern California.[1] It is used as an adverb such as in "hella bad" or "hella good" and was eventually added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2002.[1][2] It is possibly a contraction of the phrase "hell of a" or "hell of a lot [of]", in turn reduced to "hell of",[2] though some scholars doubt this etymology since its grammatical usage does not align with those phrases.[1] It often appears in place of the words "really", "a lot", "totally", "very", and in some cases, "yes". Whereas hell of a is generally used with a noun, according to linguist Pamela Munro, hella is primarily used to modify an adjectivesuch as "good".[3]
According to lexicographer Allan A. Metcalf, the word is a marker of northern California dialect.[4] According to Colleen Cotter, "Southern Californians know the term ... but rarely use it." Sometimes the term grippa is used to mock "NorCal" dialect, with the actual meaning being the opposite of hella.[5]

Now as for the greater context...
I find I can go through life just fine without every even thinking about, let alone having to reference Wisconsin, Tennessee or the Carolinas.
They have no relevance in my world.
If they come up at all, it's every once in a blue moon, so I have no trouble writing out the entire word.   It's not like I'm going to pass out from exhaustion between the C and the O.  It's not like I get the S and scream, "My God, will this word never end?!"  It's not like I need to wipe my brow when I've finished writing it.
If you can't write out the entire word 'Wisconsin' I suggest you consult a physician about your chronic fatigue.  That cannot be normal.

The word that galls me is Cincinnati.  Much like Wisconsin, Tennessee and the Carolinas, I try to not think about Cincinnati anymore than I have to but I find it annoyingly comes up at least annually.  

And it's so instinctively wrong.  It should have two Ts and one N, instead of two Ns and one T.  

There is absolutely no reason on earth why they would go with two Ns and one T except just to piss people off.

It's like backing a trailer.  When I write the word Cincinnati, I have to stop and consider what would be natural and sensible and then purposely do the opposite to get it right.

eh, y'all get too attached to whatever it is an go all wiki- chances are, in the context used 'Wiscy' is understood... as is Okey... hella... 

grippa is new, it sounds like something i do just before and when i piss... i might use it or that, or i may not- time will tell- but i'm pretty sure it'll be reserved for that usage.  this has to be the first time in a long time if not ever i've discussed pissing beyond an abbreviated sentence ...abbreviated to two; i.e. 'gotta'  as opposed to 'i'm going to' or 'i have to' or from three, which i suspect may happen in the more cultivated regions which would go something like "I must...", but i doubt that would be said without further qualification such as "jolly, chaps, it has arrived at the moment i must piss"- which would get some mighty strange looks in my circles- though 'gotta piss' is widely accepted even around gentler sexes or children....  which is more valuable? proper like and delivery focused, or communicating what you've got to communicate as quickly and accurately as possible?  i get doctors speaking all specific, but that's about it... maybe engineers... possibly short order cooks so long as you don't get winded- they can really eff some stuff up if you leave too much to chance regardless of their lack of vast selection of ingredients.  

'message to garcia' may be an excellent read for some.. here is a wiki you seem to favor:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Message_to_Garcia

analytical types get all wrapped around the axles with specifics or minutia... i'd rather look at just the big picture until looking closer is warranted.

I often like to mumble common retorts with hidden messages for astute listeners but nothing out of the ordinary to rouse the lazy listener.

For example some coworker may share a flawed plan with me.  I will listen attentively, nod and mumble, "Sounds risible to me."  And they will grin approvingly and say, "Well, if YOU think it's reasonable..."

Or say a woman is being particularly troublesome.  I might nod and mumble, "Yes, mayhem."   They'll snort and nod sharply as if to say, "That's better."   They of course think I'm saying, "Yes, ma'am."

And so it is.  I go through life, dazzling myself with my brilliance like that.
