  1. The dreaded "vote of confidence", not. Except they are a package deal, I believe he was Herm's agent at one time. Women, children and ADs first.
  2. Graduated HS in 68, Stockton CA. Wanted to go to a Pac 8 school. $C & UCLA seemed to be in LA (no thanks); Cal too close, Stanford didn’t return my calls; sister at uw (state not big enough for the two of us); that left OSU and the Ducks. Accepted at both, but as the Knight Templar told Indiana Jones, “I choose wisely”. Fall soph year while registering for classes my tuition was taken care of. Turned out there was a frosh Stephen A. Smith on Bball scholarship that I got. He was from Sacto and had a girl friend who dumped him shortly thereafter. I think Barbie Benton went on to better things. Later that year the Ducks were recruiting a HS friend. Jim and I were jay walking across campus when a car honked at us. I turned at gave a one finger wave. Turned out it was his student athlete sponsor, Dan Fouts and coach was George Siefert who were taking us to dinner at the Branding Iron. I told them about “being on scholarship”. George thought it was funny as long as it wasn’t football. When the Ducks made it to the RB after ‘94 season, I told what turned out to be the best unknowing lie of my life, “Honey, this is a once in a lifetime thing”. Never happier to be wrong. Go Ducks.
  3. Not even close to the best reason, 'nough said, right members? But still cool features.
  4. You can't possibly leave out our former California governor in that category as he represents the husky's mantra, "I'll be baaack". Of course, you have to be dumb or dumber to believe they still have a chance!
  5. A GREED, plus the owner is a HS classmate, most hated man in San Diego, Dean (Dino then) Spanos.
  6. Since I'm in Dire Straits, I'll take the "Money for Nothing".
  7. Lady Ducks homework assignment QUIT WATCHING THE MEN PLAY!
  8. Well then, he was in a lose lose situation as MC didn't deliver either. I can't blame him for the decision but wasn't aware of the snubbing.
  9. Oregon only wins if Miami's players were arrested, tried and convicted prior to the game.
  10. It seems the team will have one-on-one coaching as more coaches get hired. Is there a limit, or is it the NIL of coaching? Oregon to hire Auburn GA Brent Jackson to work with defensive backs (yahoo.com)
  11. Agreed. Perhaps a political move for future Oregon HS recruits.
  12. NCAA board 'concerned' that some athlete endorsement deals may be violating recruiting rules NCAA board 'concerned' that some athlete endorsement deals may be violating recruiting rules (yahoo.com)
  13. Game 1 will be the appetizer, Game 3 the main course on the season's course. Regardless, beating huskies cherry on the dessert.
  14. Plus pitch the ball to the RB down near the goal line instead of hero ball.
  15. Time to let Ty Thompson play.
  16. For greybeards it's not NFT it's WTH
  17. Add in the free throw shooting, and we can double park and not get a ticket.
  18. That should be a slam dunk.
  19. The first 30 and the last minute looked like December BBall.
  20. The answer is easy .... coaching, coaching and more coaching.
  21. Saw the bike episode in person, both over before the half way point.
  22. I think we're trying to move down to a 12 seed.
  23. Not finding it while trying to add a link.
  24. My glass is half full. Play the best and win and that is a step up towards the playoffs. Lose, well, then maybe we aren't deserving of the playoff and let's win the Pac and get our NY6 game.
