The Sports Media Revolution
There’s been some talk by the Golden Blogs and Excuse Me For My Voice about the Bissinger-Deadspin huzzzah! Now it’s my turn (I’ll provide a healthy set of links later on).
I admit, I’m a long-time Deadspin reader (although not as frequently as before). Unlike my fellow compatriots, I’m not going to be so harsh on [...]
Cal Volleyball All-Star of the Week: Angie Pressey
(Hat-tip to long time reader Danzig for the pictures)
As usual, I have overlooked other Cal sports over the past…seven months, and during this long, interminable offseason I hope to reward our good teams with feature posts.
So let’s start with the Cal Volleyball All-Stars. By all-stars, I mean girls with sparkling all-around bodies of work. This [...]
Flying Behind the Mullet
I remember being a freshman in 2004, watching Aaron Rodgers weave his way around the pocket and beyond. I was way too pampered to get that season as my first as a Cal fan, which is probably why I sometimes act like a brat when I talk about their downfall this year. You gotta take [...]
Action Jackson Preview, Week 13 (Cranberry Sauce)
With Cal off and a regular season collapse nearing completion, I won’t pay much attention to general football this week. Okay, that’s a lie. But I’m exhausted from readying the offseason posts, so I’m going to sit on my ass and chow down, just like everyone else. I might check in for a special Thanksgiving [...]
Why Tedford Sticks With Longshore
I know most of you are disgusted with Nate, who really did not perform well at all tonight. You know things are going pretty badly for you when the most exciting part of the entire game is seeing you hindered on the field and your backup looking ready and willing to enter the huddle.
That being [...]
The Lights Go Out (USC-Cal Open Thread)
And so it will be for the California Golden Bears at Memorial in 2007. What looked to once be a showdown for the Pac-10 crown now is looking like a consolation trip to whatever third-tier bowl awaits the two of us. And you can only wonder at what could have been…
You wonder if our greatest [...]
Pac-10, Up and Down
Taking a look at the conference, the Pac-10 has never looked stronger. No one will finish with ten losses this year, and the team that might finish last (UW) has the hardest schedule in all of Divison I. Respectable year for the Pac-10, which probably has asserted itself as at least the second best football [...]
Cal-Wazzu and Cal-ASU Torrents
Wazzu is available here; ASU is available here. Enjoy. (Special thanks to chicagoaubear from The Bear Insider)
You will need some ISO burning software to view the files, which I guess could be either Nero or one of the freeware options (Active ISO Burner might be one of the better options).
What is a torrent?
Reveal the Contenders–Action Jackson Recap, Week 10
Man, this seems familiar.
Up-and-coming Pac-10 contender rebounds from a devastating early season loss. Rebounds to crush the remaining schedule including several clutch home wins going into the stretch run. Loses a hideous trap game at Arizona where everything could go wrong. Are dead men walking going into LA and eventually fall short against the Trojans. [...]
The Cougars Growl–A Look Into Washington State
People might recognize my laxness in posting of late. I assure you if Cal takes care of business Saturday night, they will grow more frequent by next week. I’m not neglecting this on purpose, but some detoxing from Cal football is just plain healthy after the worst October in half a decade.
As usual, the preview [...]
