I thought it was an overall encouraging weekend of basketball by the Bears.

For the men, just being competitive for the first half at Washington State and the entire game at Washington was more than what I was expecting. I would say that the poor executions to blow the game against Washington would generally hurt, but it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things (AKA Cal's only chance to make the tournament is to win the Pac-12 tournament). Now, I just hope that Grant Newell will stay at Cal rather than being the latest Cal developed player to transfer away.

I was more frustrated by the Cal Women's Basketball results both because I was at both of those games but even more because a big road win would have really helped their bid to make the NCAA. Instead, Cal women's team can only possibly see another moral victory from the second game against a tough, top-10 opponent after a close loss to Stanford the previous weekend. I have to credit UCLA's stars for their a great 4th quarter, but Cal's offensive execution stalled under pressure.

Some progress has been made with MBB, but the Washington loss, after leading virtually the entire game, was tough to handle.

If Knowlton is still there, there’s no point in waking up.

Wow. A Fox coached team was unable to hold a lead. Does this mean he isn't getting an extension?

Can you please explain the "Mozilla" thing? I keep seeing it on WFC and have no clue what you are implying.

Mozilla Firefox browser. It’s shorthand to say we want Coach Fox fired.

OK. It's the "Let's Go Brandon" of Cal MBB.
