  1. A few I've figured out:

     

    In the back row, I think the man on the left is Michael Schwartz, who is a friend of RB and who used to be on the field keeping RB's headset cord from getting tangled, and he owns M. Jacobs and other furniture stores in Eugene. Then it's Nick Aliotti, ?, Rich Brooks, Mark Kearns (I think), ?, Mike Bellotti, Neal Zoumboukos, maybe Pat Conrad (long-time equipment manager)

     

    Sitting: ?, Steve Greatwood, ?, ? (Name tag looks like Dwight something, but I can't really tell), ?

     

    Anyone recognize any of the question marks?

     

     

  2. The 2.5 to 3.5 minute ad breaks give me time to hit the concession stand, restroom, stretch my legs. The problem, of course, is that there are far too  many ad breaks! I always think of that scene in A Christmas Story where Ralphie has just cracked the secret code and he discovers that it is just another "crummy commercial."

  3. If it's away games, 9:00 am here works fine for me. I'm up watching Game Day at 6:00 am anyway. Now if it is Oregon versus UW, USC, or UCLA playing at 9:00 am our time in Eugene, I can do that (I live in Eugene, so no long drive for me), but it would make for a hectic morning to leave the house at 7:30 am. 😮

    I'm not sure what you mean by nicoise but potato salad is a tailgate staple.  Over the year, tho, I've become more fond of a good macaroni salad and my wife makes a great one.  Her potato salad has yet to equal what I remember my mom could make. 

    Nicoise potato salad has, in addition to potatoes, ingredients such as green beans, gem lettuces, black olives, plum tomatoes, tuna. It is a salad, but to me it is not real potato salad. 🙂

     

    I enjoy macaroni salad too, but I let someone else make that while I stick to potato salad. 🙃

     

    Also, I've had what some people call potato salad that is just boiled potatoes with oil and vinegar and not much else. I mean, no mayo???!!! 😄

  5. Haven't tailgated in years, since way back when it was easy to drive to and park at Autzen. A bunch of us from the neighborhood would each bring something, and I always brought my favorite, potato salad.

     

    I used my mother's recipe for it, because whenever we had class get-togethers in high school, everyone asked for my Mom's potato salad. It is real, old-fashioned potato salad, none of that Nicoise stuff. 😉

  6. I was listening to 95.3 in the car around 1 pm and whoever was on talked about the Duck-uw game and was full of praise for the excitement and closeness of the game, and for Dan Lanning. I thought I could find the program by googling, in order to post that part, but couldn't find it. So if anyone can find the program and at what point the game was discussed, I'll happily give you a quart of happiness.

    All this loss does is give Fusky the drivers seat. USC is down by 18 at half. Not looking good.

    Win out and Ducks get another crack at it.

     

    Pac 12 champ goes to playoff. Ain't over yet. Oregon is still in complete control of their season.

     

    One thing we learned, Ducks are a dam good team. This game proves nothing at this point

    It would be great to see the Ducks go to the PAC 12 championship game and beat the dawgs, especially after I heard a husky fan on a call-in talk show say that WA now "owns" the Ducks.

    New Washington Huskies AD Troy Dannen took an unprovoked shot at Ohio State and Texas...

    Second is the filing to join the lawsuit on behalf the ten departing members, since the injunction was filed by Washington State.

     

    ...

     

     

    If granted, UW would then ask Whitman County (Wash.) Superior Court to grant a motion to dismiss the lawsuit.

    The outgoing Pac-12 schools have also entered into a mediation process with Wazzu and Oregon State scheduled through October.

    I don’t think you will ever see a Home/Away scedule with Alabama. The only time they travel out of conference boundries is for a CFP game. This may change if the balance of power changes from the SEC. But as of now, why would they? Don’t get me wrong, I wish they would, but I don’t see any reason under the current climate for them to change.

    Alabama is like a firefly. It won't fly over the Rockies.

    Oh!  I just had a thought (dangerous I know, but it doesn't happen very often)!

     

    With all of these questionable coaching decisions (by the way, anyone recall the Oregon - Stanford game where the EXACT same thing happened?  Take a knee....nope, CJ fumbles), I have a new nickname for MC:

     

    ...

    That's the first thing I thought of when I heard the report about this on the radio this morning! 😄
