What is a more tough situation (objectively) for a football team:

East coast school traveling to west coast for 7:30pm pst kickoff?

Or

West coach school traveling to east coast for 9am pst kickoff?

The latter for the West Coast teams. If the players are anything like my son in college, there’s no way they’re used to getting up before 9 AM on a Saturday.

Watch the Bears win one of the next two games to pull us back in, because it’s just so Cal.

we should do alternate helmets like that with Oski. show some real style, flash, pizazz.. while getting trounced.

Wilder: NOOOOO!!!! I've said this before but every time Cal puts on an alternate helmet and deviates fromt he classic Cal script, WE LOSE BADLY!!!!!! We should stick with the classic so even if we lose, we still look good.

I don’t believe in this kind of voodoo normally but I totally agree with you.

Blondie: Just refer back to last Saturday to see what happens when you change helmets.

NO!!! We should keep the traditional navy blue helmets with Cal script on the sides. Changing the helmet color and design is like F'n Oregon or high school helmets

Why do the Eastern teams get day games and we have the crappy night games?

Blondiesandtopdog's avatar

Because 1 we suck and 2 TV thinks having football on - even if Cal football led by Meathead - is better than no football

I don’t love this reference to the coach and hope it doesn’t stick. I think we can be civil.

NC State will have a noon kick-off. The Golden Bears will have 9am kick-off (again).

It's a hell of a lot better than a 7:30 kick off in Memorial Stadium

Normally, it would have brought flashbacks of Javid Best throwing up on the field against Maryland, but this season, I don’t mind. We are cooked anyway.
