  1. A precise combination of surgical precision and blunt force trauma delivered by the Ducks, from coin toss to the last celebratory echoes of the day... is that too much to ask?
  2. Congratulations WaterPolo... as far as I'm concerned, yours just earned best post of the bunch!
  3. I'm grateful for this forum (Thank You ,Charles and associates!), and especially thankful to see a BALANCED Duck team!
  4. Happy Thanksgiving, ladies and gentlemen! May the football gods provide a feast for all Duck fans!
  5. Even though my stepfather was a die hard beaver, we always shared an appreciation for the Army Navy game, especially when Uncle George, his brother could join us. George was a Navy Vet, and a survivor of the Arizona, and Dad went from Normandy to the Battle of the Bulge. The rivalry was strong in those two! After the game, it was not unusual to see them hug it out, followed by bawling while watching a re-run of "White Christmas", or some other war movie, while reminiscing of comrades they'd lost.
  6. Best fuskie retort would have been to quietly hold up a nice brace of steelhead to share your joy in the occasion. Better yet, hook and land a nice one directly under his butt sniffer!
  7. Back when I was still in high school, the beavis players were trying to pick up the Great Pumpkin (for a shoulder ride), and failed to keep his patookis off the pavement... does that count?
  8. Of course the elephant in the room is Williams would have to sit out, assuming he isn't a grad transfer, correct?
  9. First thought that came into my head, as well. Not sure how much change it would be for Smith compared to the Beavz.
  10. My family has attend ed both Oregon and OSU, but I have no divided loyalty. DUCKS, all the way. My daughter was a classmate of DAT and Pharaoh Brown (she rven had an almost identical knee injury to his... not the greatest connection, eh). My son worked as an aid to Former Duck associate hc/TE coach, Neal Zoumboukus. My step dad played for Beavis, and was a rabid fan of that poor benighted program. I never quite got his love for the Great Pumpkin. Ducks by 22! Works for me!
  11. Hope Bucky gets a Jeremiah Johnson-esque, "NOOO000ooo... Get Him!!", moment, on Friday!
  12. I worked in a production facility for 20+ years, and was massively under compensated for more than half that time. I was personally producing 60+% of the daily output of the 16 man department I was associated with. Most of the disparity was created by the fact that there was no incentive for the rest of the crew to perform at a higher level, both quantity and quality wise. When management finally listened and established a profit sharing program related to those two characteristics, I was asked to be the crew foreman. I was able to show the other employees how to use that as incentive to significantly improve their position. The problem was, other departments failed to take advantage of that opportunity, and began to whine about having to work overtime to keep up with my team. Management's solution was to decide that since we unfairly took advantage of the situation, the program was canceled, and everyone fell back into mediocrity. I found someplace else to pursue my family's financial security! Sounds similar to the PAC's fate, in some ways...
  13. Nix is currently ahead of Mac Jones record by a small margin, at 78.1% compared to Jones' 77.4% Pass Completion Percentage Single Season Leaders and Records | College Football at Sports-Reference.com WWW.SPORTS-REFERENCE.COM Pass Completion Percentage Single Season Leaders and Records N
  14. Hand grenades and horseshoes... And even the, almost can come up short. Execute, focus, and survive!
  15. Watching this game against U-DUH, the Beavis appear in control of nothing.
  16. Texas vs Iowa State... 3-3 at half time.
  17. 2nd and 23 is not a strong position for Penix...
  18. Dang, that snap on the punt was a kick to the castor glands!
  19. Well, FSU is no longer a threat...
  20. What's Bo's completion percentage?
  21. Must see TV, IMO. What channel is it on? Oh, wait! Seatgeek still has tix available for the 11am kickoff, starting at $3/each! Let's GO!
  22. The weather shouldn't be any excuse, today... it's supposed to get all the way up into the 70's, with a chance of showers. I've attended a few games down there where the temperature has been closer to 105. The Ducks need focus and determination. Certainly, they have the skill and talent, but need desperately to avoid shooting themselves in the foot (or anyplace else, for that matter!). Go DUCKS!
  23. I posit this theorem... could going for 2 actually be a false flag to fool tougher opponents into thinking Oregon failed to learn anything from the heart sundering loss to the booty sniffers? "Enquiring Minds Want To Know..."
  24. Oregon's defense was plenty good enough except for not playing through the whistle on one play against a quality opponent in their first MCG appearance, ever. Without the innovative offense of CK, we don't get to the game in the first place. Certainly their were missed (egregious) calls or poor discipline among the officiating crew, but stop Dyer by hitting him until the whistle finally blows, and the Ducks likely had the Crystal Ball within their grasp.
