Double-posting, no one cares! Why buy a mattress anywhere else? (No one outside the sate of Oregon will get the reference, but oh well!)

I want to post here and say that I am really excited about the Oregon State Beavers' football season. They are two wins away from winning the Pac-10 and going to the Rose Bowl for the first time since... 1964, I believe. I was even at this Saturday's game, and let me tell you, my voice was gone afterwards. Even though I cut back the swearing to ass, hell, and crap, and I didn't even really heckle the other team or the refs much! (Key word: much.) That's a good day for me.

Two of the toughest games of the year are ahead, though, at Arizona and against Oregon. At Arizona will probably be tougher, but the Ducks always are ready to play in the Civil War. And last year, the Beavers broke the streak of the home team winning, so that's no longer as big a factor when factoring in past history.

Anyway, it was a lot of fun to be there. I haven't been to a game in two years, so it was fun to go back to Reser-particularly because they won. Kicked the Golden Bears' arses! The defense kicked Cal's quarterback's ass all day, hurrying him, knocking him down, and getting five sacks on him. By the end of the day, he was so flustered, he nearly threw three interceptions. Instead, he threw two (one of which was called back due to a false start on his team... and the second came on the play immediately afterwards.) There were some big hits on special teams as well. It's also pretty awesome that our 5' 7", 190 lb. freshman running back took one of their biggest defenders down, not once, but twice. Jacquizz Rodgers is awesome. So is his brother James. Anyhoo...
