Thanks for all the time you've devoted to covering the team over the years, Nam. I've especially enjoyed The Novel series because you have such an eloquent way of capturing the ethos of a Cal fan: undying optimism amid a flood of disappointment and mediocrity (with occasional sprinkles of delight). This isn't the season any of us hoped for, but I'm glad you got to end it with a season in which the Bears reclaimed the Axe and beat USC again (side note: how wild is it that after a fourteen year losing streak to USC we've now won two of the last three against them?).

Although your time writing about Cal has come to an end, I'm glad you'll continue writing. You're an excellent writer and new audiences will be fortunate to hear your voice.

eloquent as ever, going to miss you on this front. Maybe as a door closes for you, one may open fr me writing here and I could hopefully articulate maybe 10% of the fandom you illustrated over the years.
