Go Bears!

I haven't seen that many tear-stained dollar bills since my dad hired a stripper for my uncle's funeral.

god

do these announcers EVER get a fact right? they say things with such certainty like they are quoting facts but they are almost always wrong..

took them a couple plays to realize nate was in.

Verran is getting nasty with that LB.

Longshore's in...

Damn, I hope I don’t have to eat crow today…

Bwa? Did Nate cap that last drive?

by BleedinBlue on Dec 6, 2008 12:52 PM PST reply actions  

They need to run a slant out pattern for Boateng.

by BearsNecessity on Dec 6, 2008 12:53 PM PST reply actions  

If they want to get Longshore some big plays.

wow

why cant we pass protect against WASHINGTON ?

It’s their O that blows, isn’t it?

i havent seen them play once but

if you are winless at this point, everything sucks.

by falseintellect on Dec 6, 2008 12:55 PM PST up reply actions  

It never feels like our WRs are open :(

by BleedinBlue on Dec 6, 2008 12:55 PM PST up reply actions  

So true

SO TRUE…. is it lack of speed?… I always feel like there needs to be a coverage breakdown for us to get an easy catch…

by danzig on Dec 6, 2008 12:56 PM PST up reply actions  

I dunno. I kinda remember the same problem last year, even with RoJo, Hawk, and Tha1. When they were in space, they were phenomenal, but I feel like other teams would have WRs open more often than us.

by BleedinBlue on Dec 6, 2008 12:58 PM PST up reply actions  

wow...

didn’t expect a commercial like that in the Cal game.

Just an opinion

I’ve always preferred Syd the Squid rather than Sydgod. Am I the only one?

I agree.

Over on CBS

Verne looks so happy to be there

http://mymindgrapes.wordpress.com

by 408 on Dec 6, 2008 1:03 PM PST reply actions  

It’s been a lousy year for Verne. I think every game he’s covered has been either blowout or a close snoozefest. Certainly nothing like last year.

by BearsNecessity on Dec 6, 2008 1:05 PM PST up reply actions  

Best needs 58 more yards....

Let’s see if we can get there. If we get a good lead into the half…we’ll start to run in the 3Q…

BUT he has to get there before the final 5min of the game where I think JT will play all seniors and 2-3rd stringers.

by danzig on Dec 6, 2008 1:03 PM PST reply actions  

we can probably get there by the end of the half

all it would take was one good run. Totally possible.

by BearStage on Dec 6, 2008 1:05 PM PST up reply actions  

IMHO….I think we’re going to establish the pass going into the half… so if he does get there.. it’s going to be in the 3Q… or not at all.

by danzig on Dec 6, 2008 1:07 PM PST up reply actions  

Ummm... was that an-E-40 reference?

that was disturbing.

by BearsNecessity on Dec 6, 2008 1:08 PM PST reply actions  

omg?

a completed pass? time to throw?

Best's 13 TD's

Good for the 3rd in the Pac-10 behind Blount and Gerhart, 38 more yards for the rushing title.

http://mymindgrapes.wordpress.com

by 408 on Dec 6, 2008 1:10 PM PST reply actions  

not a question if best will lead pac10 in rushing

its how big a margin he will have over Quiz for the bowl game.

You must not be a Cal fan… where is your pessimism???

by danzig on Dec 6, 2008 1:12 PM PST up reply actions  

There's still time for Best to have 200yds, 3TD in the first half.

love it.

Haha, Tavecchio with the attitude at the end.

by Shadwhand on Dec 6, 2008 1:12 PM PST reply actions  

WTF???

Oh… i guess he was sliding… I could understand a flag there.

by danzig on Dec 6, 2008 1:14 PM PST reply actions  

Yeah, you can’t go to the head.

by BearsNecessity on Dec 6, 2008 1:15 PM PST reply actions  

He didn't go to the head - it was shoulder to shoulder

the problem is that the QB was arguably sliding when he got hit. His head hit the ground, not Williams.

It’s the slide… in the NFL once you start the slide, you’re protected by the Geneva Convention.

We've had too many ESPN/ABC games this year

… we usually have more FSN games…. but they haven’t had much to work with this year b/c of the ESPN pickups.

that was close to a catch.
