We’re Green With Stinginess

We’re always happy to be dealing with an environmentally responsible company like BP. The UC Campus can do no wrong with their maneuvers into the corporate world, making sure that the people they deal with Isn’t it comforting to know we will be bringing this class act business to our campus?

BP’s ceaseless efforts to [...]

There is Pointless, There is Fruitless, and Then There is Congress

We never know what exactly the direction a new Congress plans to take the country, but we figure that something fruitful will come of it. But as usual, Nancy Pelosi’s deft hand is guiding us in directions we never thought we’d see. Well…directions we’d never hoped to see again.
The Senate yesterday soundly rejected a symbolic [...]

We Hate Hippies Because They Make Us Feel Sorry For Old People

We love riding bikes. Our town away from Berkeley, Davis, is the bike capital of the world; it’s always a great deal of fun to navigate the lanes there on a boring summer day. But we dare not ride our bike out here in Berkeley, no matter how time efficient it might be at getting [...]

Jerry Falwell Died, But His Fatass Legacy Will Live Forever

What, were you expecting a eulogy? We’ll let the good Reverend speak for himself.

On Sept. 11: “The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad. I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and [...]

Get Off the Bandwagon, America (Utah 100, Golden State 87)

Well, we figured it’d happen tonight. It’s kind of strange how close the Warriors came–Golden State still had a chance to win this game, but the same thing that got them through Dallas doomed them against Utah–bad looking 3s in the final few minutes, combined with fatigued turnovers and a much fresher Jazz team, and [...]

Here’s Our Sign: “We Hope Real Bears Eat You”

As widely reported everywhere in the Cal sports blogosphere earlier this week, the Cal-Tennessee game is going to not only get primetime attention, but you’ll also be getting plenty of talking heads along in the deal.

The California football team program has an even better chance to increase its national profile on September 1st. In addition [...]

There’s a Reason They Cancelled the OC

Well, that had to be the most innocent blurb for Jesus ever. If you blink, you’ll probably miss it, since the whole video seems to focus around the dopiest conflict ever. Has anyone other than Cory Matthews, broke up with a friend over getting a smart kid in the study group? However, Summer [...]

Backs Against the Wall

Barring an amazing scoring outburst by the fatigued Warriors, the run ends tonight for this amazing Golden State team. Stephen Jackson has been playing on auto-pilot for all but a quarter and a half of this series, and Davis looks worn down. Deron Williams on the other hand, is blossoming before our eyes and [...]
