RIP Bill Walton - Dead of Cancer at Age 71
Dang... knock it off! 😉 "You're not going to make me cry, Roy." So sad that Ronnie wasn't allowed to slam it home at that time. What an incredible flood of memories.

RIP Bill Walton - Dead of Cancer at Age 71
"Ambushed On The Oregon Trail" -- As a kid growing up in Eugene at the time, I will never forget that game. And even though we despised UCLA, we all loved Bill Walton. You will be missed, Mr. Walton. Thanks for so many amazing memories.

For Memorial Day: The Newest USS Enterprise!
To have participated in, and survived, one of those great battles as a gunnery officer onboard a destroyer, let alone all four of those brutal and legendary battles, is utterly incredible. And after 98 years, to top it all off in joining three of our nation's great president's -- Adams, Jefferson, & Monroe, in passing on July 4th, is one exceptional story. To your father, and his many fellow warriors from the Greatest Generation, we all owe a debt of gratitude to which we can never repay.

Should Oregon Play Osu Every Season?
Regarding playing the Beavus again. Allow me to be brief: NO In fact, if I may expand that ever so slightly: H#%L NO Thank you.

Should Oregon Play Osu Every Season?
We'd be doing WSU a favor by allowing them the gift of playing us @ Autzen... every once in a while. The only time I want to be remotely near Martin Stadium again is perhaps on my way to Coeur d'Alene or Jackson Hole.

The Future Schedules: Only Cupcakes?
Absolutely. Going forward, we should always schedule relatively light OOC games. What's good for the SEC, should also be good for Oregon.

Oregon vs. Creighton GameDay Thread!
Oh man... so darn close. Another nice late season run after such a tough and challenging year.

Canzano, Pig-2 Chortling Over 16 Million (So Far) NCAA BBall Theft...
Great comment & video. The problem with the Pig-2 having been welfare recipients with their hands out there now for decades, is that once they quickly run out of OPM (Other PAC Money), they'll have virtually no idea how to survive. I'm tellin' ya... it ain't gonna be pretty when we effectively see them on the side of Highway 99 picking up can & bottles, and holding up cardboard signs that say: "Need More Free OPM." (OPM has an opium like effect) And of course, they'll still go nowhere near a mirror, and they will continue to blame everyone & everything else for their demise.

MADNESS: PAC 6-0 / SEC 3-5
Dang... I should have run with it 😁. But hey... More PAC-12 March Madness -- We're now 6-0!

MADNESS: PAC 6-0 / SEC 3-5
I just hate it when I make a speeling error. It's downright embarrassing. I don't suppose anyone would buy it if I attempted to bs my way into saying that I was making some sort of "Nobel Prize" tie in.😉

MADNESS: PAC 6-0 / SEC 3-5
Kentucky's HC Calipari: “I’ve got all my coaching buddies call, and they say, ‘I love your team.’ And I love this team too. We’re built for March.” Calipari said. Yeah... built to get bounced again in the first round and enjoy March from the comfort of your man-cave at home. And as the Master FishDuck sez: "I never said I was nobel."

MADNESS: PAC 6-0 / SEC 3-5
The Best and Worst from Day 2 of March Madness WWW.SBNATION.COM Two thrilling upsets, our first overtime game, and a healthy heap of high-flying offense highlighted day two of the NCAA tournament. Absolutely love this quote: "Greg Sankey just had to open his mouth. He just had to very publicly imply that the tournament needs to be tinkered with, and that giving automatic bids to smaller conferences is wasting them. Well, look what you did now you absolute buffoon."

MADNESS: PAC 6-0 / SEC 3-5
Kentucky & Auburn getting bounced are two of my favorites so far. To quote a legend, "I never said I was noble."

Tip-time Set for No. 11 Seed Oregon vs No. 3 Seed Creighton
This has all the earmarks for what should be a great game tonight. Can't wait.

GCU vs Saint Mary’s
That GCU last 3:30 was painful to watch and downright ugly. Frankly, it was just very poorly played. They are fortunate that SMU did not have any time outs remaining after the 3:30 mark. GCU won't be able to get away with that kind of late poor play again. They need to learn how to use the clock, and they look like a JV team when trying to inbound the ball. Still, what a great win for their program. And James Madison... another lower seed excellent win too. March Madness!

Too Funny: SEC Meltdown as Buffs/Yale Beat Florida/Auburn!
I know we've only completed the first round so far, but I'm amazed that the PAC-12 is 5-0. Can't wait for the game tonight. GO DUCKS!

GCU vs Saint Mary’s
Love the Lopes. That's great that your kid goes their. One of sons went their and graduated a few years ago -- and he loved it. Great school, environment, and amazing facilities. But enough Lopes talk... GO DUCKS!

Oregon Wins First Round NCAA Tournament Game 87-73 Over South Carolina!
Holy cow... The former Gamecock went off. What an insane, incredible, performance.

Oregon Wins First Round NCAA Tournament Game 87-73 Over South Carolina!
Did Couisnard just score the most points by a Duck in Duck NCAA tourney history? I'm not positive about that, but if he didn't, he was darn close.

USC Gamecock Fans Pretty Confident...
The floor is definitely innovative. But the bummer is that, while creative, it looks like crapola on TV. In person, it's not quite as bad. But I feel like we're kind of the basketball equivalent of Boise State's vomit blue Smurf-Turf.

USC Gamecock Fans Pretty Confident...
Facts and data can just be so darn inconvenient sometimes.

USC Gamecock Fans Pretty Confident...
Yep... that thing, while creative, has gotta go.

GameDay Thread: Oregon vs. South Carolina!
They went from hitting 12% of their 3s against the Buffs, to hitting 44% today. Nice. And they were smokin hot from the 2 at 60%.
