17.May.2013 Oregon State @ Oregon (Baseball Civil War)
Let the mayhem begin. Saturday and Sunday will be broadcast on TV. I have a crappy feeling the Ducks take 2 of 3 as I don't see the Beavs scoring many runs versus them…it will come down to OSU pitching outdueling those guys. 05/17/13 at Oregon * Eugene, Ore. 6:00 p.m. PT 05/18/13 at Oregon [...]
25.Apr.2013 NFL Draft
Let's hear where you think Poyer and Wheaton go. I honestly have no clue, but Dion Jordon at #2 makes me laugh. Best guess is Poyer 2nd round, Wheaton 3rd round. I think both could go higher (and likely would if they were from football powerhouses). I can't imagine either going 4th round or later. [...]

Between him being fat, slow to understand the playbook, and his atrocious Twitter page, I'm thinking this guy could be [...]

Also, MLB started last night, and college ball heating up (and apparently burning holes in the Beav's leather). I can't stand the lull between January (i.e. bowl games) and having baseball/football both going simultaneously. [...]
30.Jan.2013 Is Riley a Victim of His Own Success?
Today I play Devil's advocate to the devil. Is Riley a victim of his own success? For example, the Iphone. It was inevitable this gadget would lose luster as habituated customers' expectations rose. In the 90s, what Riley was doing was great. Fans weren't habituated to 5-7 wins; they were habituated to Pettibone(head's) 0-2 wins. [...]
