As the above counter almost reaches the point we can count down the days with letters of the alphabet, we continue to amuse ourselves with whatever we can. In today's case:
- The Oregon State Media Guide is out. Get your copy today, or view the Online Version. Nothing smells better than a crisp new Media Guide at about this time of the year. It's 208 pages of Oregon Statey goodness. Mmm...
And I might add... any college girls out there... it might be worth the $25 just to get a copy to look at those studly men on the cover... -wink- I'll try to get a picture of the cover on the site sometime soon.
- Apparently, UCLA is considering changing the color of their road uni's to a lighter royal blue. I think they both look okay, but I don't know... something about the baby blue-ish color still makes it look strange.
- I will now direct your attention to a nice little tribute done by Kyle at Dawg Sports:
By the way, while the N.C.A.A. has been busy wringing its hands over sideline mascots, historic flags, and other time-honored traditions, the following events have taken place in college football: Oklahoma dismissed two starters for accepting payments for work they did not do, Auburn suspended two linebackers over alcohol-related arrests, Tennessee dismissed a player charged with drunken driving after a campus police officer saw him driving on the sidewalk and another Vol was charged with aggravated assault, Miami suspended four players for violating team policies, Utah State dismissed a linebacker for repeated violations after he and four teammates were cited for marijuana possession, Air Force indefinitely suspended its placekicker for an undisclosed violation, a San Jose State football player was charged with robbery, a Southern California defensive back reportedly tested positive for steroids, Cal's quarterback plead no contest to a misdemeanor arising from his involvement in a bar fight, and an Arkansas running back reportedly was also involved in a bar fight. Way to keep those priorities in order there, guys.
Again, that's all from Kyle at Dawg Sports. Well Said. And, for what it's worth, the Beavers aren't mentioned once.
- In other news, Reebok, or should I say... Rbk, released the new Vince Young Logo. Peter at Burnt Orange Nation likes it, and the hat tip goes to him for this logo.
I like it too. It's kinda Tiger Woods "TW"ish... but there's not a whole lot you can do with two letters. Just wait until a super star comes along whose initials aren't symmetrical.
Go Beavers!
