The Third Saturday in November by JustHuman (PG-13)

Okay, so it's actually the third Sunday in October, but never mind. *g*

Fandom: NCIS
Pairing: Tony DiNozzo/Tim McGee
Length: about 5,000 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] justhuman
Author Website: right here
Why this must be read: In this amazing story, Tony explains to Tim what being a Buckeye means to him. It's done with humor and a great deal of DiNozzo style, and even if you know absolutely nothing about football or even can't stand football, after reading this story, you'll not only want to watch a game, but you'll also be a huge Buckeye fan! ;)

Excerpt:
"I'm starting to get the picture, Tony."

"Yes, but do you understand?"

"I understand that Ohio State and Michigan have an extreme rivalry. It's harder to believe that it deserved its own HBO special."

Tony hit the pause button, turned in his seat, and looked Tim in the eye. "That's it?"

Tim blinked, wondering what the heck Tony wanted him to say. "I had no idea that the saying, They put their pants on one leg at a time - same as everybody else, originated in the Ohio-Michigan football conflict. I mean I'm really starting to get that this means a lot to you as an Ohio State alum."

"As a Buckeye, McGee. I'm a Buckeye." Tony grabbed the popcorn bowl, threw himself back in the cushions and hit play.

"And a buckeye is some kind of nut right?" There was too much bite in his voice and Tim regretted it.

Tony hit pause. "MIT - home of the beavers, right?"

"Yes, beavers are very industrious. They're one of the few animals that actually build things, divert waterways. It's a good mascot for engineers."

"Huh, I never realized that," Tony said as he hit play. "I just thought beaver was another word for pussy."

All regret faded for Tim. "Gee, I don't remember that coming up last night, but maybe that was because your mouth was too busy with my-"

"We're watching TV here, McGee!"
