Sympathy To My Parents

.....for still faithfully attending games of the train wreck known as Oregon State men's basketball. Can't imagine exactly what Ralph Miller would think of incidents such as what happened with the University Of Washington over the past weekend, other than he wouldn't have put up with such tomfoolery at all, but this must certainly be the absolute bottom of the barrel for a once-proud basketball program.


The upcoming Civil War does bother me a bit now, I'll be there at Gill in early March to cheer the Ducks on, cause when a team is truly as desperate as Oregon State is now, who better to take it out on than their rivals? I'm sure that the Beavs will remember how they played competitively with the Ducks earlier this month at the Pit, at least until the Ducks hammered them down the stretch. The Beavers must certainly know this is probably their best chance to secure a Pac-10 victory for this season, so the Ducks need to match their intensity.


At any rate, it was nice to see Jim Rome hit on the ill-timed adventures of the Beavers on his television show today, somewhere in the middle of this segment. Have to admit that hearing Rome say "Back in the shallow end Beavers!" made me chuckle loudly. Nicely done Jim.
