  1. I built a 550 sq. ft. cottage for AirBnB purposes in 2011 out of an old tool/wood shed that connected to my double garage. But I live in Eugene. I suppose that some Ohio State fans might take a whole week off and stay for a few days in Portland or the coast, but those are not the type of people that are going to use just a bedroom. At any rate, it's super easy to sign up for AirBnB or VRBO. I don't even think you are allowed to actually give people the breakfast part of a bed and breakfast. In almost every case the goal of guests is to never see the host! It's 2024, nobody wants that. They want a door with a keycode, and they want to come and go when they want. Anyway, if you're going to take the time to do a quick rental, then I'd suggest just renting out your whole house for 5 days or a week and then stay with friends or in-laws while the people are there. You could charge about $600-800 (or more depending on where you live and what your house is like) a night for that. Otherwise it's not worth it. Just getting money for one bedroom for a one-off thing isn't worth it. You'll have to buy them their own shampoos and soaps, and then you'll have to offer them new sheets, most likely. Etc, etc.
  2. If we could make FishDuck members de-age 26 years I'd say that would be a win, and more important than Oregon Basketball.
  3. I'd probably consider not signing with Oregon because of the court, to be honest. No joke.
  4. It's not "spend it or lose it", to be fair.
  5. It's high school spring break. The students in the AV club that are planning to film and show the games on public access TV don't have access to their school computers until Monday.
  6. I think that has to do with Hamlet's mother marrying his uncle Cleetus, and Hamlet's own Oedipus Complex. Just the way things are in S-E-C territory. I kid, I kid.
  7. I doubt Evans will stick around for a junior season, unfortunately. Kel'el Ware is even going to be drafted in the late first round in June.
  8. This situation is difficult for me to evaluate. I don't blame the SEC for scheduling only 8 conference games. If they can get away with it and make a lot of money...then good for them, I guess? But is it noble? To schedule more SEC conference games, or not to schedule: that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles.
  9. Good thing I read the article, then! But I'm a unicorn these days. I consider ads, especially tv and streaming ads, to be critical to the solvency and future of American sports and entertainment. The younger generations and the forgetful Gen-Xers forget how bills actually get paid.
  10. The NFL Combine ended on Sunday, March 3rd! For the most part it ended on Saturday the 2nd, as Sunday was just offensive linemen doing a few things. I got tricked into watching on Sunday, hoping to see Jackson Powers-Johnson run the 40, but he didn't participate in that!
  11. I share with you my strength, Kim. Hope to see your post again when they come.
  12. This is what I have been thinking these past few years as well. The only reason players should transfer out of Oregon for football or basketball is because they don't want to sit on the bench. If people are bailing you've got a problem.
  13. "The Climb" is the title of a very popular Game of Thrones episode. I'm pretty sure "The Climb" Lanning & Co. are using is in reference to that episode, even if unconsciously chosen: "Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try it again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb. They refuse. They cling to the realm or the gods or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is." - Littlefinger, Game of Thrones S.3 E.6
  14. I'm a huge Blazers fan. We should have traded Dame a long time ago. Also, I pretty much root for us to lose every single game because I have no problem with tanking. The NBA has a salary cap and zero free agents want to move to Portland. The only way to win is to get lucky in the draft, or to time your trades right. If I wasn't clear- I love the Blazers and hope we lose every game. That could give you an idea about how little I care about the little guy in college football. I wish the Blazers could simply outbid for players and essentially give them an offer to live in the rain that they can't refuse.
