Let’s See the SEC Pull This Awesomeness Off

 
I say we just send these two guys on the road to Autzen, and hook them up with some pimped out speakers, and confuse the audience into thinking they’re attending a Vanessa Mae concert. Better yet, why not just send a string quartet out for halftime? Everyone outside the Pac-10 already looks down on us [...]

The Bears Are Roaring (Blog Reactions to Colorado State)

The California Golden Blogs
Hydrotech: “Oh yes, the air up there. Longshore wasn’t off. Yes, his balls were 1 to 3 feet too far out in front of our WRs on deep balls, but that’s because of the air up there. Cut Longshore some slack. It’s hard to adjust to thinner air. [...]

California-Colorado State, Live

I’ll start off the live blog around kickoff. Hang in tight fellas.
11:04–I have to give props to the Rams for actually bringing an actual Ram across the field. I think we’re a long way from bringing bears, although Knut would have been a great possibility a few months ago. Oh well.
11:10–Mmm, a 3 and out. [...]

Tracking How Late Your Bus Is

From Our Sturdy Golden Bear, a nice little tip on tracking the AC Transit bus you need to embark on. You lucky devils get to use your bus passes now. Although you’ll probably still have plenty of trouble finding the 51. [NextBus]

Back to Normal–I Hope (Cal-Colorado State Soliloquy)

After the exhausting buildup for the past several months to last week’s game, Colorado State is a welcome relief this weekend. It’s peaceful up in the mountains, so we’re sure the Bears will lay back at Fort Collins, do their annual drubbing of their two pushovers on the schedule, and move onto the Pac-10 [...]

Ramming It Home–A Look Into Colorado State

Obviously, the foray into Vol Nation last week to preview the Tennessee game was the biggest step this fledging blog has taken into the mainstream. Some of them might have been obnoxious homers, but hell they were confident. It was infectious, and it was definitely foreign territory. The last time I was that confident in [...]

At Least He Won’t Be Standing Out Too Much

Cal football is in full swing these days, and I’m happy–these are the best months of college, chilling on Saturdays, an event at hand, and the possibilities of craziness endless. For most people. Who aren’t me.
But let’s move from our dreamy weekends to the interesting realities lying ahead. That’s right, I’ll be talking about college [...]

This Dude Needs A Girlfriend

 
It’s your typical night with plenty of nothing to do at Berkeley. So naturally, you must be thinking, what could the brown people be up to? Desi hyphy, that’s what.
Worst part about this video is the cameraperson is more drunk than the actual dancer. So you will only enjoy this as much as you enjoy [...]

I Want My In-N-Out Damnit!

I don’t disparage the Daily Cal news/opinions that often, simply because it’s an exercise in futility (they’re not going to get smarter if I criticize them), and Beetle does a great job of knocking them down a notch anyway. If you want an idea of their crappy analytical abilities, check out their shining Tennessee analysis, [...]

The Bears Are Roaring (Leftovers from Cal-Tennessee)

So I said I’d write up some analytical thoughts…but the Cal football blogosphere seems to already be a thousand steps ahead of me. It makes my job easier to focus on the mundane and the sublime, and turn over the analysis to them. Here are my remaining thoughts, mostly directed toward the inconsqeuential.
–The Mic Men [...]
