The Ducks are already doing pretty well in our new conference...

Yep. Why does the Big-12 call themselves that for years when they were only 10 teams? The trendy thing?

Baloney. He got hits and coverage digging the PAC-12 grave? Screw him. All the terrible things he wrote and now HE absolves himself of responsibility? Journalists like him are part of what is wrong with today’s values, with current culture. “We fry you, but don’t blame us when a 100 year old conference collapses!” I read this article earlier tonight, was repulsed, and was not going to post it.

Disagreement is good; we learn from each other. Thanks for posting.

They would stick it to us in a heartbeat if they had the same choices. And I do feel bad for them...too bad it...

What an insufferable jerk. He covers the Ducks? Bill Oram: Oregon Ducks survived this round of realignment roulette. But what did it really cost them? WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM The Ducks were officially accepted as members of the Big Ten on Friday.

Hey Bruce, We will need to do something about the B1G championships in Bloomington, Indiana! I think Hayward Field would be more suitable...

Obviously with the incredible exposure--we will attract even more to Eugene. Your typical Oregon vs. B1G team will have TONS more eyeballs on it, and doubling our viewership number should be easy. It sucks to be us, right? 😁 Looking at the Rivals current rankings...we are third in the B1G, and yet No. 6 in the nation? That my Duck-Buddies is a Power-Conference that we are now are part of and should be proud of. Although Josh Pate feels differently than I?

Awkward!

"There is something transcendental about Stanford asking Boise State if they can join their conference."

My Duck-Buddies, I do not know how any of you can endure the long loading times of the pages, and the "origin error" that comes up often. You cannot imagine how frustrated and angry I am with this--and my help is not available for another eight days at an unexpected time of very high traffic. It really pisses me off... So, as frustrating it is to you--I promise you that I am even more so. I was telling NJDuck this, and felt I should share it with everyone...the site breaks even, but it does so over time from the ads. So I get a big bill and gradually pay off the FishDuck Credit card that site expenses are on. Currently, I have a $2,000+ bill, but it should be paid off gradually over the football season. But now I will make it an even tighter margin for paying bills. I am going to go for a separate dedicated server, and not a server that is shared. It will double my hosting costs, and I will cross my fingers that it works out in terms of paying the bills. But it is the only way to have lightning fast loading--which is what we all want. I have had many ask about a donation button, and this is "on-the-list" of things to be done. But you can donate by going to this page, and scrolling down to the "Donate" button. I, and thousands others thank you. It will go to the costs of the site, guaranteed. I love this community and want to treat it better, and wish I did not have to ask... My thanks, Charles

Some great love given to Oregon fans... BTW...if you have not seen the B1G Network...it is not just better than the Pac-12 Network--it is miles ahead. Our audience just got a TON bigger.

From James Crepea on X/Twitter: UO president John Karl Scholz: "We anticipate averaging over $50 million" annually in total media rights."

From Brandon Marcello on Twitter/X: Does Oregon want to play Oregon State every year in all sports after leaving the Pac12? Oregon AD Rob Mullens: "Absolutely."

You are quite welcome to come here and discuss football with us anytime. In fact it would be nice to have some perspective from a fan who has been in the B1G for a while.
