DBD 12.11.09 Keep our A's in Oakland

A lot of big stories this morning...while I'm waiting to ensure the baby's asleep before returning to my slumber I thought I'd throw up a DBD (it's 2:08 AM). All links links SF Gate, SFW, and should open in a new window unless otherwise noted. Cal-themed stories are in blockquotes.

Is he Irish enough? Notre Dame picks the 'natti's Brian Kelly to take over. I have watched 0 snaps of 'natti football so I have no idea if this is a good move. While I hate Notre Dame, I think that means I really like them. I love Notre Dame stadium, their unis, their non-conferenceness, and their history.
Just when you think the Pirates couldn't fuck up some more: Bobby Crosby signed a one year, $1 million contract to play for the Pirates.

Stanfurd hires Harbaugh's dad to be RB coach.
Clint Eastwood, who's directed Invictus starring Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon, utilized noneother than Jack Clark (calbears.com) to help make the rugby authentic in the movie. I'm willing to pay the sitter for this one.
Finally, in huge news the City of Oakland (Caution: Carolyn Jones story) has listed three potential waterfront-ish sites for a new A's ballpark.
"We're willing to fight to keep our A's in this city," said city Councilman Larry Reid. A's owner "Lew Wolff said there's no viable stadium sites in Oakland. Well, we've proven him wrong."
I hope to Bak Bak this goes through.
Mayor Ron Dellums said Oakland offers the A's economic vitality, a solid fan base and great baseball tradition.
"Oakland and baseball are synonymous," he said. "If baseball is a game of the people, then what better place than this magnificent city that has embraced everyday people from all over the world?"
Well said, Mayor Dellums, well said. Now don't fuck this up and pay your damn taxes.
I'll get the rest of the News & World report as well as the official calbears.com stories at a more reasonable hour.
The opinions expressed in a FanPost are, in every way, reflective of the opinions of every California Golden Blogs Marshawnthusiast. Moreover, they are reflective of every employee of SBNation, including Tyler "Blez" Bleszinski.

Reliving Marshawnthusiasm
Yesterday at work, a colleague and I were talking NFL football. Somehow, the topic of Desean Jackson came up, and how he has been a very good draft pick for the Iggles. My colleague (knowing my Cal alumness and fandom) asked me, “didn’t he drive around on a cart or something on the field after you guys won a game?”
Of course, I took the opportunity to correct him, tell him it was Marshawn, and tell the full story. Highlight of my day.

But I still don’t know if I’m convinced he can live up to Notre Dame’s expectations.

They NEVER wait until bowls are done if they can help it. Recruiting comes up hard and fast after the season, and the more time you have to assemble a staff, the better prepared you’ll be. In actuality, this helps Cincinnati, as it gives them more time to find a new coach, and most of the coaching moves have yet to be made, so there’s still good coaches left out there.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!

Sucks for the kids though, They work so hard and are so excited for the bvoel game, just to have their coach abandon them. There’s no way he can coach that game now, and even if me wanted to, the kids wouldn’t listen to or respect him.
Just seems like a shite thing to do, abandoning your players right before what is arguably the biggest game of their lives.

Not sure how much I buy the “it’s better for Cinci” argument. Wouldn’t most bowl-eligible programs put a new hire off until after the postseason anyway (at least publicly)? For example, Bill Stewart had the “interim” tag post-Rich Rod until after WVU beat OU in the Fiesta Bowl. And it’s certainly bad for them this year, since they’re on the cusp of maybe the biggest game in Cinci football history and have to adjust to a new coach. As we all know, it’s not every year you go to (or have a shot at) a BCS Bowl. Maybe they’ll have a pre-bowl, post-departure fantastic hire (like Kelly himself was) or find someone great in the off-season, but it’s still not the best of situations.
That having been said, I understand the Brian Kelly’s perspective. It’s better for his new program for him to get started right away and thus better for him. It just sucks for Cinci.

Dude, heres the one thing I dont like about the waterfront ballpark.
Were at the game. Its a gorgeous Oakland day. I have tickets to go to Yoshi’s later. I ate at Chicken and Waffles before the game. Im gonna eat at Everett and JOnes for dinner. Great stuff, right?
Except that like every 30 minutes an Amtrak train rumbles down the street blasting that fucking horn SO loud! Also, BART doesnt go right there. Itd be like with PacBell where you have to walk 10 blocks or whatever. Better than Fuckmont, of course!

At least one of those sites is a non-starter since the identified area has 20 different private owners. But the other two (the harbor terminal and the fire training site) are interesting.
My wife and I, in our courtship days, used to go to a lot of games (e.g. in section 119) and we’d bring along the greatest Vietnamese sandwiches from this tiny hole in the wall in Oakland Chinatown. I’d be quite excited to do that without having to make an extra BART stop.

I don’t know about the eligbility rules for the FA Cup and Europa League, in which Everton is hanging on by a thread. But they’ve been so decimated with injuries, he could be playing a lot.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s an excellent move by David Moyes, because Everton could use the help and I think that if he doesn’t back out being tackled, Donovan could be a solid striker for them.
by DC Trojan on Dec 11, 2009 1:17 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
He’s eligible for the FA Cup as long as he has not played in the competition for another team this season (obviously hasn’t).
Europa League is trickier but I suspect Everton would add him to their “Europa Roster” once the window opens in January.

I’m not a particular fan of David Beckham, but I lost any final shred of patience I had with Landon Donovan with his bitch-fest of a book ostensibly written by Grant Wahl.
The Beckham circus at LA Galaxy may have been irritating, but when Donovan can say he’s played a key role in winning two leagues, has a Champions League winner’s medal, and singlehandedly rescued a World Cup qualifying effort (or at least be given credit for it), having worked his way into it as a limited player, then I’ll be interested in his opinion.

Then we have to refer to the current Coliseum. There is a railway adjacent to the stadium (ever wonder why they have the elevated walkway? it’s not just to elevate the homeless sax players) and they have parking lot tailgating. Now with the size of the parking lot, there is some inherent distance placed between the people and the trains. Jack London is not made this way, it does have pedestrians adjacent to the train tracks, but I really think your experience is based on being within 5-10 feet of the train. And unless you’re setting up your tailgate infront of BevMo (not actually a bad idea…) You’ll have plenty of distance from the train to talk.
Although the way you talk, you’re bound to be interrupted by the train, just by sheer quantity of things you say.

True – and there is a famous open-air theatre in San Diego, I think the one I’m thinking of is the Starlight Bowl in Balboa Park, which is under the landing path of the nearby airport (both are near downtown). It’s a very small crowd which are absolutely silent during the performance, so when a plane flies over, a light on stage goes on, the actors freeze for 30 seconds, and then resume when it’s gone.
A simple example of making it work for much more noise sensitive arenas.

Indeed.INDIANAPOLIS — Former AL Rookie of the Year Bobby Crosby and the Pittsburgh Pirates have agreed to a $1 million, one-year contract.
The 29-year-old infielder had spent his previous seven seasons with Oakland Athletics and was voted the rookie honor in 2004, when he batted .239 with 22 homers and 64 RBIs.
He hit just .223 this year with six homers and 29 RBIs in 238 at-bats, becoming the first Oakland player to appear in at least five games at four infield positions since Ernest Riles in 1991. He went on the disabled list in August because of a strained left calf.
Crosby can earn $500,000 in performance bonuses based on plate appearances.

Cal swimmers doing well internationally:
HONG KONG – California junior Hannah Wilson, swimming for Hong Kong in her hometown, won two silver medals and four bronze medals in the 2009 East Asian Games swimming competition that wrapped up on Thursday at Kowloon Park Swimming Pool. Wilson’s teammate and former Cal star Sherry Tsai competed for the last time for Hong Kong. An All-American for Cal from 2005-07, Tsai retired from competitive swimming after the meet.
Wilson claimed silver in a time of 8:04.86 as part of Hong Kong’s 800-meter freestyle relay along with incoming 2010 Cal freshman Stephanie Au, earned another silver in a time of 3:40.80 in the 400-meter freestyle relay with Au and Tsai, and won bronze in the 400-meter medley relay (4:03.07) with Tsai.
Individually at the East Asian Games, Wilson earned bronze in the 50 freestyle (25.70), 100 free (55.13) and 100 butterfly (58.85). She also placed fifth in the 50 fly (26.91).
Au won two individual medals, finishing third in the 200 free (1:31.16) and 400 free (4:14.58). She was also fifth in the 800 free (8:57.12).

Men’s soccer player invited to MLS combine:
BERKELEY – Former California defender Tyler Barry was invited to the 2010 Major League Soccer Combine to be held from Jan. 9-13 in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., MLS announced on Thursday. Barry, who completed his college career with the 2008 season, suffered an anterior cruciate ligament knee injury midway through 2008 and was not a viable candidate to attend the 2009 MLS Combine.
“It’s been a long recovery process for Tyler coming off his knee injury last year,” Cal head coach Kevin Grimes said. “We’re so happy and excited to see him get a chance to fulfill his dream of becoming a professional player. Tyler was having a great season in 2008 before his injury. It is nice to see him get recognized for his stellar play the four years he was here at Cal.”
Barry is one of 62 mostly current college seniors from 44 Division I schools with a spot on the initial list of invitees to the combine, which will end two days before the 2010 MLS SuperDraft. A member of the 2008 NSCAA Far West All-Region and All-Pac-10 teams, Barry was an integral member of the backline and started all 11 games he played in last year before his ACL injury cut short his final season. He played in 72 games and collected four goals and one assist during his Cal career.

Current men’s soccer players receive honors:
BERKELEY – California put a trio of Golden Bears – junior forward Andrew Wiedeman, junior defender A.J. Soares and sophomore goalkeeper David Bingham – on the National Soccer Coaches Association of America NCAA Division I Far West All-Region teams, the NSCAA announced on Thursday. This marks the second straight honor for Wiedeman, who repeats his first-team status, and the first such accolade for Bingham, who is on the third team. Soares, who was a third-team pick in 2008, is a second-team selection this season.
Wiedeman, who was one of the most dangerous attacking players on the West Coast this season, was Cal’s leading scorer and a first-team All-Pac-10 selection in 2009. The San Ramon, Calif., product paced the Bears in points (26), goals (11) and game-winning goals (5) after starting all 18 games. He also tied senior forward Jeff Cosgriff for second on the team with four assists. Wiedeman ended the regular season tied for second in goals and ranked third in points in the Pac-10. He is one of 34 players vying for the Soccer News Net’s Player of the Year award.
Also strong in the classroom, Wiedeman earned a spot on the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America second team after first claiming a berth on the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District 8 Team. Wiedeman was named to three important preseason award lists – the Watch List for the Missouri Athletic Club Hermann Trophy and the preseason All-America teams for Soccer America and College Soccer News.

Adam Schefter disagrees with Rishi
Q: Adam, I am nuts to think that the 49ers should start Smith next year and wait another year before drafting a QB? Shouldn’t their focus be on offensive linemen, defensive backs or pass-rush linebackers? If the season ended today, they would have the 10th and 14th picks. Do you really think one of the better QBs will slip to the 49ers when four teams (I’d say five but I don’t trust Al Davis) who need a QB draft before them?
—Nick (Englishtown, N.J.)
A: Nick, your thinking is completely in line with the organization’s. They are big Alex Smith fans right now. And as is the case with Gradkowski, we have to see how the season plays out in the final quarter. But if the draft were held today, I’d guess that the 49ers would be more inclined to use those two first-round picks on offensive or defensive linemen, defensive backs, or pass-rush linebackers. But there still are four games left this season for their final verdict to come in. But to date, Smith has begun to play up to some of the potential that the 49ers identified in him when they made him the No. 1 overall pick — ahead of Aaron Rodgers.

I was never in favour of picking a QB in the upcoming draft…
And right now, the Niners really should focus on their MNF game against the Cards as opposed to anything else.
I still like Shaun Hill more, but Smith has played well in the quasi-spread we’re running.

This reminds me of a traumatic childhood christmas when I was probably about 7 or so. Disney’s ‘The Little Mermaid’ had just come out on video and I asked for it for Christmas. Low&behold, christmas morning, I open up to find — the knockoff version. I cried like crazy, because I thought I had been bad, and not good enough for the real little mermaid. I do remember my dad panicking and running immediately to the store to get me the real one.
Of course, now I realize he was busy, and it was an honest mistake. But man, I hope I don’t ruin christmas like that.

the Pac-10 leads the country in dropping Tiger Woods like a bad habit.
They’re the the first entity to completely drop Tiger from their slate of commercials.
Woods shot a quick spot when he was honored last month as a new inductee into the Stanford Athletics Hall of Fame. The spot, which include famous alumni from the conference schools, aired on the UCLA-USC football broadcast on Nov. 28 and on a USC-Nebraska basketball broadcast on Nov. 29.
The ad was supposed to run on ESPN’s broadcast of the Oregon-Oregon State game last Thursday night, but Jim Muldoon, associate commissioner of communications for the Pac-10, told CNBC that the spot was not aired.
“I don’t know when, or if, it will be used again,” Muldoon said.

We have a big thing against paying for something we can do ourselves. ‘Can do’, in this case, is entirely different than ‘will do.’ With Rags having a cold and me feeling nauseated from morning sickness – our house is pretty gross. I would LOVE for someone to come clean it, but especially clean out our fridge. … christmas present!? please?! from the blog?

Yeah, that was our conflict as well. I hesitated for a while because of the cost and our physical ability to do the actions required, but I caved due to our time constraints with the kid. We were pretty busy before, right? So we only have her do the things that we always procrastinated on and felt bad about… floors, cabinets, dusting, the stove top, toilet, tub, … we still do all the daily stuff like dishes and laundry and picking up after ourselves. It’s been great, no more midnight mopping. Worth it? I dunno. We’re happy to pay it to avoid cleaning guilt and have things regularly nice.

I’d probably have to quantify my utility, i.e. the personal value I put on having the house clean. And then I could make an indifference map (made of many indifference curves) and then align that with my budget, and find the point with the highest Utility return that coincides with my budget.
OR, I could not.
