I seem to remember being involved in a sporting commentary blog back in the foggy recesses of my past. And now I have stumbled into it again. Capital!Here is what I have to say for now:I am a fan of the Oregon Ducks Football Team. I often demonstrate my affection for their sporting achievements by getting liquored up and shouting "DUCKS!" When they score, at times I yell "UHHHHHH!" in an

Was at the stanford game this weekend, it was fun. I was hoping to see the ducks hang up 50 and if it wasn't for the stupid penalities and misscues on offense it woulda happened. But it was a beautiful day, there was almost more duck fans than Stanford people at the game, I was a little drunk and the ducks won. Can you ask for anything more? Yes you can, a win at ASU, which is doubtful but not

If the Ducks play a perfect game today, they can snap and discard the Trojans like a used condom. A pleasant image, I know. It won't be easy, but I am compelled to predict a Ducks victory. It'll have to be a high-scoring game to do so, and lucky for us, we've had some high-scoring games already. Last week's lack of major turnovers is a good sign. So is Kellen's 300+ yards. If we win this one,

Fresno St. is a very, very good team, and one that could run roughshod over the ducks. But I don't think they will with this team. I feel the ducks obviously have the edge with the home field but also on offense and in the secondary. I think, like in the rest of the games this season, the ducks will pull it out on the backs of Clemens and Martinez. Please enjoy the shootout. FSU: 28UO: 31

The season has begun, son. And I know all ya all former bloggers are busy running your personal blogs about culture and politics and technology, but I'll be here talking Ducks football for no other reason than I like to read my own posts. I'm going to put Kellen on Heisman watch, because, well anyone will passes for 300 yards, throws several TD and rushes for nearly 100 should be. I know, it's

I am going to post here because no one else will. At 4 PM PST, 7 PM EST, the Ducks will once again engage in a gridiron battle royale against their northern rivals. The season has been painful. I know, I was there last weekend in Autzen as a legion of Bruin fans shook their cute little blue bear hats in my face and chanted "U-C-L-A! FIGHT! FIGHT!" I have no words for the Ducks on this cold

WWB let's keep the faith. Keep it strong. Listened to the game 0n the radio yesterday, it was a great game. Should've bought tickets, but didn't. Can't believe that Duck defense, and I can't wait until we whup it up on the fucking Huskies next week! Those Beavs though, could be a challenge.

Doesn't Stanford have some gay tree as their mascot. Well the Ducks are going to cut that fucker down. It won't be an easy job, Stanford is actually pretty good, their quarterback (Teevins?) can really be a threat down the field. I don't know much about their defense. . . I think Oregon will have to win it with their offense, as in long, succesful drives that keep our cornerbacks and d linemen

Christ, and he's not even from Oregon! Where are you suckers? The Ducks are starting to win, now -- it's okay to show your faces now! I admit, I missed what turned out to be a hell of a game last week because I had advance tickets for "Team America." This weekend it's all Ducks. And I'm with Nomaduck on our bowl chances. Last weekend Kellen Clemens singlehandedly saved our bowl chances, God

The Ducks can and should win this upcoming game against Arizona. But it's highly likely that fumblerooskies, bad puntooskis and other fuckupskis of varying natures will conspire against them. Perhaps "conspire against them" is the wrong phrase. Shooting themselves with their own gun seems more apropriate. Clemens got his shit together last week, and the big Yella O's offense machine started

Oregon beats WSU in a thrilling come from behind, score nearly 30 points in the fourth quarter game, and no one has anything to say about it? Well I've got this to say, BOW DOWN DUCK DOUBTERS and SUCK IT! BRING ON DA WILDCATS!

Well, at least we didn't get torched again. And I hate to say it, but, I was right. Devan Long shut down, not enough pressure, Ngata couldn't get inside, the D-Line was good but they couldn't get the job done. And while ASU did score 28 points, but Clemens did not get his shit together. It's getting really frustrating because the receivers are open but he just can't get the ball to them on

I'd just like to let you all know that Ted Whitaker just bet $2 against the Ducks. It wasn't enough that he made one bet, rather made two seperate bets for a dollar each. Even after the 'Damn, Ted, you're betting against the Ducks' I gave him for betting against me. Still alive...Go Ducks! Abandon the screen. Now!

I like AK's thoughts on the game, especially mentioning the fact that the Ducks should avoid taking the ball and giving it right back. Yet I'm inclined to predict that this matchup will be decided, as more often than not, in the trenches between O and D lines. The Ducks defensive ends, especially Devan Long need to get to ASU's qb or he'll burn us again. Inside, our big Samoan Morman Ngata from

...since the Ducks have done anything against the Sun Devils. Walter has shredded the Ducks secondary in their last two meetings, throwing for 852 yards and scoring 104 points. However, reports the Big O, since then the Ducks secondary has changed their defensive secondary approach significantly, taking less risks and providing more coverage support, they've been much better in passing yards

I'll be the first to admit a serious lack of postage on the Loop, but hey I work at one of the biggest wineries in California and we've been crushing about 500 to 600 tons of grapes a day. I haven't been able to fixalate on a compooter much. But that don't mean I don't keep an eye on the Ducks and I sure was glad to see them hang 40+ points on someone, even if it was the woeful Vandals.

well, we may not be able to see the Ducks on network television, but at least we've got a win. so, on my lack of posting - i was at a work conference and lacked an internet connection. i won't let it happen again. my prediction probably would have been pretty close, as I tend to pick dominating Ducks victories. and as for next week, I think Klemens ought do a better job than DA did yesterday.

48-10, sucka! I was half-right on my prediction. Though I didn't give the Ducks enough credit. But really, for a team that hadn't yet scored in the first half, can you really blame me? Anyway, I didn't even get to see this. No TV, nowhere. And now that the Ducks have fallen from their previous powerhouse status, I won't get to see too many others unless I go to Summers. So long, ABC telecasts!

Thanks to TiVo, I was able to watch the Ducks win yesterday. Following the Sooner game, I watched a replay of last year's UO v Michigan game. Watching that game was like watching an entirely different Klemens. He was confident and threw the ball like he knew what he was doing. Also, he didn't throw every other pass off his back foot or while jumping up in air. What happened to him? I don't know

It looked like my prediction was nicely on track through the 2nd quarter. After that? Well, then there was the after that. Next week: Idaho. Easy pickin's. I'm sure the Ducks thought they'd be 1-1 right now, and man, 0-2 sure looks a lot different. But now the Ducks should finally have things figured out. Indiana was a fluke and this time we beat the spread (barely). The Loop seems a bit slow

AK has the right attitude. I suppose the our only chance is to completely shut down their offense -- you hear that, Haloti? -- and keep them out of FG range. A tall order? But of course! Then Clemens has to throw like he's... like he's Joey Harrington. Even that won't produce much against Oklahoma's defense. We'll probably have to rely on FGs as well. If the score starts climing, we lose.

That's just no good. Sure, we can all be down. We can all look at Oregon's 7 turnovers. We can all look at Oklahoma's 53-point victory. We're not ranked, they're a national championship contender. We can say all say 'How we gonna win there, if we can't win at home?' But isn't being a true fan about more than that? Isn't it about the hope? Isn't it about thinking about what we can do, instead of

My boss lost money on last week's game. The Hoosiers are always a sure bet to lose. Well, almost always. This fact does make me happier. Prediction for this week? Um, do I have to? Am I obligated to pick the Ducks to win this game? What if I don't? If I do, what happens to my credibility?

I ain't going beat a dead horse no more, aside from saying that the game did suck. I'm glad I wasn't able to watch it down here in my little corner of the Golden State, but from what I read it sure was a heartbreaker. Kinda like the WSU game of last year, and I believe a lot of us Duck fans started moaning about "OHHHHH IT'S ALL OVER!!!!" with much wailing and gnashing of teeth. Yet the Green

I confess: As Kenny Washington stormed up the field to return that first kickoff for what seemed to be a touchdown, I was seeing a championship run ahead of us. My first thoughts: Bring it on, Oklahoma! And then: The ball bouncing off Terrence Whitehead's chest ... no Duck able to hold onto the ball until he was downed. And more, and worse. The first four Duck possessions ended in turnovers, all

That was just a little dissapointing! 7 fucking turnovers. I think the Ducks had already given themselves the win and were thinking about Oklahoma next week. The first kickoff return pretty much foreshadowed the whole game. Penalties. Turnovers. And everything went Indiana's way. What the fuck was Bellotti thinking putting Dixon (awefully remeniscent of Kordell Stewart) in to run around QB

Why does this happen twice in the first half? What the FAWK is Terrence Whitehead doing fielding a punt? Does my voice have to go hoarse yelling at my beloved Ducks?

Went to the Cheerful Sportspage to have a couple bloody marys and watch the cubbies in the wild card race. They were down 2-0 in the first inning and it stayed that way until the eighth, when Sammy started off a great 5 run inning with a RBI single, but I digress. Came home to catch a quick nap before the game, and woke up fifteen minutes after kickoff with the Ducks down 3-0. But, I have faith

Indiana does such mighty big time like a big ol' hoover, but I still think the Ducks are going to be shaky coming out of the gates on this first one. But we'll see come tomorrow. I wish I could get the game on the T.V.

No, they weren't too good last year at all. You could almost say they were bad: 2-10-0, winless in 6 games on the road. The Oregon media has pretty much already marked a win for the Ducks in that column. I think I heard this morning that the Hoosiers are something like 4- 30 something over the past 7 years on the road. with much uncertainty surrounding them, look for the Ducks to come out strong

Here's what Indiana coach Gary DiNardo had to say about Oregon “They are a physical, veteran group for the most part. It is their first game, so we are going on last year’s tapes so we don’t know if there is anything new. It will be loud and tough to communicate, and it is going to be tough for us going up against one of the better teams in the Pac-10.” I like the way this guy thinks. Indiana

Phew. For a few minutes in the late fourth quarter and even a few short moments in OT, I was a little concerned the Beavers might pull it off and drop #3/#4 LSU. Now, the better any Pac-10 team does against other conferences, obviously the better. But simply taking the Tigers to OT was good enough for me -- no reason the Ducks need to be following OSU's lead. Which is not to say the heat isn't

...and this happens? It's a terrible loss for his friends and family, of course, but even if it makes me a bad person (though a good fan!) I have to wonder: Is 2004 still UO football's best-ever recruiting class?

I don't care if I don't know who the players are, or if the games don't mean shiat, it's still good to see four quarters of football on the tv. And this weekend when the NINERS will beat the Raiders, why that's just puuuuuure gravy. About a month to go before the ducks kick off their season against Indiania in Eugene. It's still too early to predict exactly what'll happen but this duck (here

You know, the woman who runs the common area in my office building once asked about the hat. I tried to explain -- Ducks, Oregon, college ... I had to settle for explaining: "football team." And a few weeks ago I was on the Metro with this woman who went to the UO, who was a big Joey Harrington fan. But that seemed to be our only mutual frame of reference. Luke Jackson? Akili Smith? Luke Ridnour

I've had many the same experiences when I wear one of my Oregon hats. Most often they will occur when I'm just walking around and hear a "Go Ducks!" shouted in my general direction. At a recent Giants game it happend about three times. And while on the train from Paris to Barcelona I met a guy from Portland who talked my ear off about how great Joey Harrington is. He knew I'd listen because I was

Wassup, Andrew? I think the answer is pretty simple: most of us are college football fans before we're college basketball fans. Until I started OSF I didn't follow Ducks basketball all that much. Around mid-August, and certainly once school starts back in the P.R.E., I think this blog will pick up once again. I'll certainly be here.

When I think about Oregon football, I usually think about its greatness and how much fun it is to watch, but at times I also have a nagging feeling that perhaps the Athletic Department has became a tad too much like the other big names in collegiate football. And while one side of me cheers Oregon's move into the forefront of NCAA football, the other side of me is somewhat dissapointed by the

How I love the garbled text that comes through on those European keyboards! I've got emails typed on public computers throughout central and Eastern Europe from my sister and Olly's old roommate -- both otherwise functionally literate people -- and they type like they're on absinthe. Which they actually may have been. Anyway, the Ducks look are still moving the pieces, but my early guess is the

The Seattle Times reported today that in the dying seconds of the Huskies' 84-74 Pac-10 men's basketball loss to Oregon last night, the boisterous Ducks student section began a rhythmic clap-and-chant: "Pac-10 doormats!" That pretty much sums it all up. The newspaper also said the city is building an apartment building for street drunks. Hmmmmmmmmm.

I sympathize with your complaints about Midwesterners Dan, I have a host of relatives from Illinois and I've spent almost 6 years trying to correct Ore-gone to Ory-gun. They say "Oh Orygun, I see," then have a couple of Miller Lites and in a hour it's back to Oreee-gone. Didn't watch the game on Saturday but I've formed two opinions from the highlights and postgame coverage, a) Luke Jackson

I had the (dis)pleasure of watching the Sun Bowl at the Mirage Sports Book in Las Vegas. If you've never watched sports at a sports book, you should try it sometime. The facilities are great. But it is definitely not a place for ACTUAL FANS OF TEAMS. Minnesota was a 7-point underdog, so most of the toothless chainsmokers present had their money on the Weevils or Moles or whatever the fuck

Just not a very well-trafficked one, that is. After watching that bowl game on New Year's Eve, I couldn't bring myself to post a thing. So... close...! Anyway, it's time to move on. The men's basketball team looks pretty good so far... at least, they do against non-Pac 10 teams. I just missed Sunday's loss to fUCkLA, and by my schedule, the next nationally televised game is against Arizona State

Go Ducks. While we remain the underdog, everything I've been hearing is that we have a pretty good shot...apparently, we're the home team (something 'bout Minnesota not wanting to be there)...the troops are on our side (reportedly, they are about 2,000 or so of them there - and they've got yellow pom-poms) and we've been there and done it before.

I don't usually post Blazers-related posts here, nor do I swear as often as others, but given recent events, plus the fact that there won't be much more Ducks news for a little while, I feel compelled to post: YOU GODDAMN PIECE OF SHIT! YOU FUCK! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE THE BRIGHT SPOT, YOU WORTHLESS BASTARD!! DO WE NOT PAY YOU ENOUGH TO HIRE A FUCKING DRIVER, YOU COCKSUCKER MOTHERFUCKER?!?!

Yeah, it should have read 'Adams- still a bitch.' But on to bigger and better things. Like that would be hard. Happy fucking Turkey Day. Dan, there is not a holiday that I think was meant more for you and your brother and your'n than Thanksgiving. Hope you and Mike ate, drank, and thanked lots. Go USC! So, I don't hate the Beavers as much as I used to, mainly because as they have grown in stature

Looking back on my season's predictions I came in at 7-5, BOWL ELIGIBLE!!!! I've got to admit I could have just been Ducks Win! each time, but where's the fun in that? I called 'em as I saw 'em. I seriously thought they wouldn't win against Cal, but THANK GOD they did. Even by pulling it out in the fourth quarter, something they hadn't even come close to doing earlier in the season. And that I

McRodriguez, by a "worthwhile" post do you mean something along these lines: UP YER GREAZY ASS, BEAVERS! DUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually, I was considering finding a "sad sack" post from a Beavers forum and using it to create an exact opposite. The effort might go something like this:Well we pretty much did not stink that one up. I am not getting real tired of the Ducks. In fact I think I don't

...have taken note of the stunning lack of posts on this blog following the Ducks' momentous win. I rarely post anything here because I never have anything worthwhile to post but I'm still here posting so all the regular posters out there should get off their duffs and start posting some friggin' posts and that means you, Danimal. Uh, yeah. The Ducks did indeed "go" on Saturday so...gone

Seriously, I was wondering why the freaking Ducks kicking the crao out of the hated Beavers in the Civil War game illicited NO response from Loopers. I mean, c'mon, where's the peeps?!?! Y'all don't got anything to say about this momentous occasion? Oh, I have something to say. I was exactly four points off with my prediction of the final sore. I said UO 35, OSU 17. Actual final score 34-20.

Come on, has no one else in the Loop noticed this huge win yet? If you somehow were not paying attention, then let me now enlighten you: DUCKS WIN!!!!

Goddamn touchdown! Fuck! And oh, yes, gotta love Michigan this year. We slapped them around like little bitches, and they help a Pac-10 team get into the title game (hopefully). Yargh! Fuck the Beavers! Andrew's mom told me she loves the Beavers! That's one more reason why she sucks!

Of all the stupid things Axl Rose ever said, "I don't need your civil war" has to be right up there. Who needs a civil war? What, is he kidding? Everyone! Once a year! And in Oregon -- which stood on the Union side but wasn't all that involved -- especially! Well, my fellow soldiers, I won't pull a Clinton and skip out entirely, but I may have to pull a Dubya and serve my time far from the

Yo, I would soooo take your money, if'n you wanted to bet. 'Cept'n I don't think it would come to that. I'm a lover (of Andrew's mom), not a fighter. And Drew's already talked about not wanting to throw down. Mebbe he's heard of my drunken backyard wrestling prowess. Or my catlike reflexes. From his mom. She musta said "Oooh, Andrew, beebee, don't mess with that Adam feller. He's got ripply

Since it's been a while since I've been actively involved in The Loop, I gotta say a couple of things to say: The Beaver jokes are great. Adam and Adam should throw down, I've got a 10 spot on AA. I can't wait for WWB to get back for the holiday (tag, you're still it) Anybody need a ticket for tomorrow? $25 I'm trying to get rid of a couple extras that came my way today at 4:30. (

But, see, you're not telling the story correctly. The "nursing home" wasn't really a nursing home. It was really a brothel full of over-the-hill prostitutes. And the saggy piece of flesh I made sweet, sweet love to was your mom. I heard there was this tasty carpet from this guy standing in a line about ten guys long, and I had some time to kill, so I thought, what the hell? There was a turnstyle

You know I honestly find it hard to summon up any genuine anger at Adam, especially any to find it sufficient to kick his ass or drive an hour and a half to Longview to do it. He likes a horrible basketball team that I won't mention, and I don't. We traded immature barbs on a blog about Oregon Football. His were lame, mine skillfully crafted missiles of wit. For example I was going to post

A rumble sounds good to me. I'm even ready to start a pool. Consider this when placing your bets: Scouting report on Andrew: Red-blooded country boy, loves Merle Haggard and therefore has a "fightin' side" which you would do well not to walk on, hates hippies. Scouting report on Adam: Street-smart city boy, impossibly good at wrestling, has been known to incorporate beer mugs into his fight

Seriously, what do I have to give to see a smackdown between Adam and Andrew? I'll be back in Oregon for the holidays, so we should try to schedule it for then. Or maybe we could get it on satellite? I'm open to suggestions...

Corvallis News Report: Football practice in Corvallis was delayed on Monday for nearly two hours. One of the offensive players, while on his way to the locker room, happened to look down and notice a suspicious looking, unknown, white powdery substance on the practice field. The head coach, Mike Riley, immediately suspended practice while the FBI was called in to investigate. After a complete
