  1. Yes, please......Deion to Bama. Make it so.
  2. Gundy's willful ignorance is astonishing. He has had the T. Boone Pickens golden horseshoe up his backside his entire career and wants to call out Phil and the Ducks? In fact, Phil just improved upon T. Boone's original model. Of course, he sported the mullet into the 2000's so he may be a bit obtuse.
  3. Leavitt is a cautionary tale of the dangers of excessive Pepsi abuse.
  4. If it weren't true, I wouldn't believe it.
  5. With a career winning percentage of 55%, who is to question the Captain of Coral Gables?
  6. I recall the early Lanning days when he was asked about the blueprint and the roster he was inheriting. He said the plan was to build from the trenches outward. Lupoi echoed that on defense specifically. Taking them at their word then the timetable makes sense that this is the year we should see developed players with the desired measurables on the back end. Should be fun…..personally I am most worried about receiving on the offensive side
  7. Charles' Saladin comp is spot on.....his patience in setting up blocks is next level
  8. Impossible to overstate their beneficence to all Oregonians
  9. Well, kind of.....the State legislature passed a jock tax bill. Zero general fund dollars though.....they want to sell $800 million in bonds based on future player taxes. Generous projections peg these tax estimates at $150 million. Besides, a stadium could cost $2-3 billion. So, the public piece of the deal is necessary but insufficient. So, we need owners who are aggressive and deep-pocketed to fend off the Miller Family in SLC before Portland MLB is even a 50-50 proposition. NOTE: I may be wrong on some of these details since it is more of a hope than a strategy at this point
  10. And, buildings are being fire-sold which puts a damper on property taxes. Finding investment dollars in this budget climate will not be easy. If they don't, the team could end up moving after all.
  11. Plan is to keep team in Portland. https://www.sportico.com/business/team-sales/2025/dundon-portland-trail-blazers-sale-paul-allen-1234866910/ Step One: show Bert Kolde the door, take the keys. Step Two: exorcism and/or sage burning Step Three: discover a strategy to convince city leaders to invest in stadium renovations
  12. If Dan Lanning and the Duck culture are unable to help this young man elevate to his potential, a lot of the responsibility is on him. "And it's wake up time Time to open your eyes And rise and shine" Tom Petty
  13. As if the Ducks are the only team standing between the Toejams and the Promised Land......delusional. If, God forbid, we melt down, there are 20+ other teams better than the Trojans, even in their "renewal phase."
  14. While I am challenged to defend Prime's approach, demeanor and public facade over the years, his bravery, courage and candor in a battle with cancer is admirable and graceful. The man is a conundrum for me.
  15. John Canzano's nickname should be "The Human Toothache"
  16. Never waste a crisis......USC will use this to leverage alumni to pick up the slack. I will shed no tears for them.
  17. Consider the source. Finebaum is a legend in his own mind.
  18. Nothing is ever Scott Frost's fault.
  19. First, Happy Belated Birthday, Charles! Second, I hope Whiz Buckley runs for higher office.....
  20. I’m not a gambler but I’m taking Bama and the over
  21. Beige....the color of milk toast and the Husky trousers.
  22. I am surrounded by Beavs at work.....and they lit the cigar early. Today will be a glum hump day.
  23. Federal funding, hell even state funding, has become a smaller piece of the Total Revenue for many Power 4 schools since 1965 or whenever Title IX was enacted. I wonder if some schools would opt to forgo federal funding to avoid the sports revenue sharing? Especially if research grants, as opposed to financial aid, are considered outside the definition of Title IX federal funding.
  24. Based on his name alone, I would be optimistic.
