Just kidding. Everybody calm down. There is nothing to be scared of. HolmoePhobe, are you okay? Please stop screaming. It was just a joke. Avinash, where did you get a hand grenade?
Man, this escalated quickly...
In unrelated news, I feel it is time to overthrow Twist's monopoly on the Daily Bear Dump. So I am going to be doing every single one for the next month. Every single one will be about the greatness that is me (HolmoePhobe, really, chill the fuck out. I told you to stop screaming) and all of my serious problems. Like these weird changes I'm feeling. Is this what they call 'puberty'? Anyways, I can go on for days on topics regarding me, but what topics regarding me do you want to hear about? Here is a suggestion thread from yesterday's DBD. Give your suggestions in this DBD.
Together, we can overthrow Twist's tyranny.
Better focus: When you were a teenager, what were some of the embarrassing things you did?
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.

I appreciate rollonubears because:
- he is an A’s fan.
- he loves the Golden Bears.
- he makes me laugh. Seriously. But not at him, the stuff he writes.
- we apparently agree on many things.
- he seems remarkably on-the-ball for his age (which is not 14, Rishi).

In my opinion I am a lot funnier in person. I don’t know why, but I don’t find myself funny on here, while at school I am viewed as the class clown and have made jokes that were so funny they disrupted class for 2 minutes because everyone was laughing hysterically (including the teacher).

There’s a coincidence. I spend large portions of my time reviewing the reports of the Irrawady Flotilla Company in an effort to recoup my investments in shipping failed running backs to Rangoon.
Their cinnamon futures are attractively priced, and plainly they are expecting a spike in competition – land mine sales to protect the groves are through the roof!
Good-day sirs, I do say, well now, I do say, that a recent shipment of French Indochinese tea leaves lead me to believe that good things could be brewing there.

7th in Director’s Cup! All hail Sandy!For the third time in the last four years, California finished seventh in the final Directors’ Cup standings, tying for the school’s highest placing in the history of the rankings. The Golden Bears were also seventh in 2006 and 2008.
During the 2008-09 seasons, Cal captured a national championship in women’s swimming, finished as the NCAA runner-up in women’s tennis and women’s rowing, and registered top-five finishes in men’s swimming (4th), men’s gymnastics (4th) and volleyball (5th). Both rugby and men’s rowing also earned second-place national finishes in 2009, but because they are not sponsored by the NCAA, the Bears did not receive points for either of their results.
Other teams to secure spots in the Top 10 were women’s basketball (9th), which reached the NCAA Sweet 16 for the first time, softball (9th) and men’s soccer (9th).
Overall, Cal has now placed among the Top 10 in the Directors’ Cup each of the last four years and six times in the last seven years. The Bears were ninth n 2003, 2004 and 2007.
For 2008-09, Cal was the only Pac-10 school to have its football team play in a bowl game (Emerald Bowl) and its men’s and women’s basketball teams earn invitations to the NCAA Tournament. On the national level, just five teams achieved the trifecta and a Top 10 Directors’ Cup finish – Cal, North Carolina, LSU, Ohio State and Texas.
The Directors’ Cup was developed as a joint effort between the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) and USA Today and is presented to the best overall collegiate athletics programs in the country in NCAA Division I, II and III and the NAIA. Points are awarded based on each institution’s finish in a maximum of 10 NCAA-sponsored sports for both men and women.

Two Cal gymnasts going to Japan CupCurrent California sophomore Kyle Bunthuwong and former letterwinner and graduate intern Tim McNeill will travel to Japan with the United States delegation for the 2009 Japan Cup. The meet will feature gymnasts from the top countries in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Both Bunthuwong and McNeill are current U.S. Senior National team members.
“We’re thrilled for the guys,” Cal head coach Barry Weiner said. “The U.S. is sending over its top team. This will be a great experience for Kyle and Tim.”
The team all-around competition will take place on Saturday, July 18 ,and the individual all-around meet will be held Sunday, July 19. The Japan Cup is the first international meet in the Tokyo area since 1993 and is a FIG-approved event. The two-day event will take place at the Makuhari Events Hall in Makuhari Messe, Chiba.

Troy Taylor joins lawsuit against EA Sports

[Former Rutgers quarterback Ryan] Hart and Taylor claim the use of their likenesses was an invasion of privacy for commercial purpose.

More potential good news on the footy front
Edgar Castillo, born and raised in New Mexico but had previously declared to play for Mexico, has announced publicly that he wants to switch back to the US team. Similar to Jermaine Jones w/ Germany, Castillo has never played for Mexico in a FIFA sanctioned match at the senior level so is eligible. Castillo would become the best pure left back in the US pool if this goes through and would be a huge, huge pickup. The fact that he has said this publicly also means his time with Mexico is likely over regardless as the Tricolores are not known for being fond of us Yanks…

The Sun Devils aren’t ready to contend for the Pac-10 title. But the defense should be strong, so if the quarterback situation stabilizes and the offensive line improves, Arizona State could make a run at eight victories.

How to drive into an apartment building
Text Messaging
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas linebacker Sergio Kindle was treated for a concussion after crashing his car into an Austin apartment building last week while he was either sending or receiving a text message, his attorney said Monday.
Kindle’s attorney, Brian Roark, said Kindle lost control of the car on June 24 while looking at the message.
“It was probably something he should not have been doing,” Roark said.Because Kindle hit a stationary object and did not injure anyone else, he is only required to file a report with the Texas Department of Transportation, Roark said, adding he planned to file it as early as Monday.He’s hardly got an exemplary driving record, however.
Kindle, a senior from Dallas, had 10 sacks last season. In 2007, he missed the first three games while serving a suspension for a drunken driving arrest.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!

Message for Rollon
btw dude: I started making your Simply the Best video this past weekend. Are you aware that Tina Turner sings that song? I was looking at some footage with the song and, I gotta tell you, it looked so corny that I started laughing. I downloaded remix versions and covers of the song but all of them basically sound the smae. I understand the slogan is perfect, but when seen in a video it seems… I don’t know. Too obvious? Too corny? It just looks contrived. BTW: I tried the Karate Kid song “You’re the Best” as well… I think that suggestion was from Spaz… and that was corny too.
Since I already have done nine Jahvid videos maybe we should try something diff? I acquired some Igber, Ichimandu and JJ footage this week…. I could do a “Running Back U”-type vid. Or something that showcases Shane more… like a “Lightning and Lightning” video with both Jahvid and Shane running the same types of plays back-to-back. THoughts?
You are the man Danzig. All those ideas are good ones. I know Simply The Best would be corny, but maybe the cornier the better. We should try to circulate the video, so if it is a little bit corny that may help the cause.
The running back U video would be really cool.

I was just about to make you a sample, but my home server connection is down for some reason… I know corny can be good, but trust me, it looks corny enough to be obvious, but not intentional. The Silly Fast vids work because it’s clear that it’s a joke. Unless…. if I were to cut in Tina Turner clips of her actually singing the song (with her crazy hair)…. nah… it’s corny. I’ll try to make you a sample tomorrow since I got a work thing tonight.
Just go whole-hog with the corny, and use the theme from Foldger’s commercials…“The Best part of waking up…” something something Jahvid taking it to the house.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
Hmm… “Simply the Best”… “You’re the Best” … “Best Part of Waking Up”…. all in the same vid? This could work… any more songs with the word ‘best’?
There's a line in "Nobody Does It Better"
The Spy Who Loved Me theme song by Carly Simon where she sings “baby you’re the best”
it too, is super corny and awesome.

I haven’t really thought it through. Did you want:
1) Igber, Ichimandu, JJ, Lynch, Forsett
2) Igber, Ichimandu, JJ, Lynch, Forsett, Best/Vereen
3) Igber, Ichimandu, JJ, Lynch, Forsett, Best/Vereen, “Future” segment with Deboski HS clips
I got about 2 mins of Igber, 1 min of Ichi, 1 min of JJ, 1 hour of Lynch and Forsett, 1 hour of Best/Vereen, 3 mins of Debo… this might end up being a very long vid even if I were to be ultra selective.
Well, if its like 2 mins of Igber, 1 min of Ichi, 1 min of JJ, 1 min of Lynch, 1 min of Forsett, 1 min of Best/Vereen, and 1-2 mins of Debo all spliced together thats 8-9 minutes long. Splice it into 2 separate videos and they are only about 4 minutes long.

1 min of Lynch?? 1 min for both Best/Vereen? Hm. There’s at least 3 mins of Lynch plays that I would consider ‘spectacular’ and at least 3mins of Best/Vereen plays that can’t be excluded.
Plus I’m no longer doing multiple parts. Youtube stats show that if 100 people watch part one… only 20 or so come back to watch part two. Plus 7 mins is already pushing it, as far as attention spans go.
Let me think about this.
To truly show off the Running Back U, i.e. Tedford backs = 1,000 yards minimum and NFL drafting, I suggest it show Iger, Ech, JJ, Lynch, Forsett, and Best/Vereen. I know you have loads of content for Lynch, Forsett and Best, so you probably need to focus on the best stuff to keep from needing an intermission.

Obviously this is for our own amusement, but if it will also be a surreptitious recruiting tool, I think we should pass on a “future” segment. We want whichever recruit watching the vid to consider themselves the future.
In terms of structure, you might also want to make it clear how Running Back U does it year-over-year.
So, click ‘play,’ screen goes black and…
2002: Igber [rushing statistics for the year while music starts]…transitions to sik reelz, black screen again with…
2003: Eche [rushing statistics for the year while music plays]….transitions to sik highlights, black screen again….
So you get the idea. Make it into a real storyline instead of a simple collection of videos. That will help compensate for any excessive length while getting the watcher to cast themselves into 2009, 2010, and beyond.

You might as well just order these teams by wins. Because of the NFL’s artificial economics at work, pretty much everyone is spending about the same amount. A couple of these teams are in the $450M range, but nearly everyone is between $480-520M — a range equal to about 8% of the average payroll. Spending $300M would get you 0 wins, and the salary cap prevents teams from spending $600M.
Well-run teams win more games; this is obvious. I don’t find any correlation between wins and payroll, however. The NFL is all about managing your roster within the dollar amounts you’re allowed to spend.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!

More Horrifying News from Somalia
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8123481.stm
“This man was accused of raping and killing an 18-year-old girl in May this year. The court found him guilty of the charges brought against him,” Sheikh Mohamed Saleban, a local al-Shabab official, told AFP news agency on Sunday.
“He was a married man, which is why the court sentenced him to be stoned to death,” he added, explaining that a rape conviction only incurs flogging.
As a side note: This is occuring in the al-shabab controlled section of the country (the southwest side) which is the opposite coast from which the pirates are operating from.
On one hand, what he did, if true, is horrific and deserved a punishment.
On the other hand, being buried to your neck and stoned to death sounds horrifically barbaric.
Also, I dont undrestand the married man aspect. Would the crime have been different if he was single?

It’s not like they’ve got the money to come up with more modern options. Not everyone can afford electric chairs and lethal injections so they have to kick it old school.
I read that the SDM commissioned a 10 month study (performed by McKinsey) trying to figure out the most cost effective way of executing their own people.
The study showed that 7.62 bullets were not cost effective and sometimes took more than one bullet to kill a Somali citizen. McKinsey recommended (using comparables from successful genocide campaigns, such as Rawanda) that switching to Chinese made machetes could save over 48% in murder costs, over a 10 year span and that they have longer depreciation timelines as the AK47 AND required less training for technicians to operate.
Dude… do your research!
Walking the plank is even cheaper AND environmentally friendly!
Supreme Leader Ayatollah TwistNHook!

I think the McKinsey study included carbon footprint statistics, but found that the SDM didn’t need to worry about it because they were stalling on the Kyoto treaty (what a backwards nation!).
Plus the PR value of a machete is greater, by far.
But think about the clean up costs. Did the study include that? There are NO clean up costs for walking the plank!

Actually using the supermajority on a regular basis will be political suicide
Disagree because of this:
That poll was done only a couple weeks after the inauguration… Here are the most recent numbers, using the same references as your chart (pollingreport.com, CNN/ORP – couldn’t find any images):
Obama (poll taken June 26-28):
Approve: 61%
Disapprove: 37%
Dems (April 23-26):
Approve: 43%
Disapprove: 53%
Reps (April 23-26):
Approve: 31%
Disapprove: 65%
Yeah you’re right on that, I’m just too lazy to find more recent numbers. The point is that given approval ratings for Obama/Congressional Dems vs. Congressional Reps, pushing a strong Democratic agenda is not necessarily a political risk. On the contrary, a failure to do so could be a liability as voters may see Congressional Dems as ineffective (gasp!) and punish them accordingly in the mid-terms.
Or look at it this way:
They have no real competition anymore. People are fleeing the Republican party in droves. They want to scoop up these new independents, but staying moderate. Progressives will freak the fuck out, but will end up voting for the Democrat anyway (except for rare instances like Spector or Lieberman).
Not saying I agree with this, but just saying as far as “staying alive” is concerned, you want to expand your base, not play to one extreme.
Supreme Leader Ayatollah TwistNHook!
www.CaliforniaGoldenBlogs.com
A strong Democratic agenda isn’t extreme. For example, 76% of Americans support universal healthcare. Dems would in fact be expanding their base by passing it, given that support is strong with indies.
The idea that policies lie on a left-right spectrum and that vote share can be maximized by moving to the center on all issues is not accurate in these circumstances – because it assumes that there is a “center” position on all issues (i.e. the median position of all voters) that lies both halfway between the two parties.
On issues like universal healthcare, that simply isn’t the case: the average voter supports it, and the Democratic Party supports it. The Democratic Party already occupies the “center” on this issue.

Tenneessee can't get enough of the Berry family
Scientists have argued Nature vs. Nurture for decades; college football coaches have not. On the gridiron, quality genes (Nature) have proven excellent predictors for success. The Mannings (Archie, Peyton, Eli) and three generations of Matthewses (Clay, Bruce, Clay Jr., Clay III) are prime examples.
Yet everyone seems so surprised that Evan Berry, the 13-year-old brother of star Tennessee safety Eric Berry, has committed to play for the Volunteers as the first member of the class of 2013. Offering a scholarship to a random 13-year-old probably isn’t the most prudent recruiting gamble, but in this case, Vols coach Lane Kiffin is doubling down on 11. Berry’s father, James, was a star running back at Tennessee. Eric might be the nation’s best collegiate safety. Evan has a twin brother, Elliot, who also could eventually climb on board.

Unfortunately for those of us who inherited the 5.5-second 40-yard dash genes, all are not created equal. Some probably should be recruited while still in the womb — or at least as soon as they show the slightest glimpse of aptitude. Here are a few examples.
• Jaden and Jaz Agassi: Talk about a mixed-doubles team. The elementary school-age offspring of Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf have the ultimate distillation of elite genes. Check out Jaden’s swing in this video. The tennis coaches should hurry, though, because coaches in other sports may want to harness the Agassi-Graf athleticism. Last year, proud pop Andre told the Las Vegas Review-Journal Jaden batted .943 in his coach-pitch baseball league.

My putting is by far the weakest part of my game. I am not good at tee shots, but I get it far enough (though I think I sliced every single one of my tee shots). For some reason I am really good at approach shots. I rock with a pitching wedge for reasons I don’t understand. I was getting to the green in 2 strokes because I drove it far enough (they are all line drives. Any tips on how to get air under it/not slice the ball?) to be withing range with my pitching wedge, then I was able to consistently make the green from the rough. I would then proceed to 148 putt the ball. I had a putt for birdie at one point. It was a damn tough putt and I settled for par.

To get the ball in the air/not slice
with your woods/driver, remember to bring your wrists through to finish the shot – so that your wrists turn at the moment of contact.
for irons, I find its helpful to think about hitting DOWN on the ball, to get the ball up in the air.
So I'll probably come in for the Maryland game

CALumbus, the Claremont is nice on the outside, the inside, and has great facilities. However, I’ve been a little disappointed in the rooms themselves….being a little outdated, not as nice even as the Marriott Downtown Oakland or the Courtyard by Marriott on Broadway. But the location is good.
I generally stay at the Marriott Downtown Oakland or the Courtyard, both of them are on Broadway. One is 10th/Broadway, the other is 9th/Broadway. The locations are….eh, a little sketchy at night but during the day are nice and there some great food to be had only a block in either direction (Le Cheval, Chinatown, Indian food, etc). And you’re right next to the BART station for easy access to Berkeley.
I usually pay about $119 for the Courtyard, or $139 for the Marriott. I guess if you can stay at the Claremont for $139, I’d say go for it.

The Claremont recently renovated many of its rooms and common areas. They are also giving really good rates, and just got a new Executive Chef… so there have been a lot of changes up there. I haven’t seen the rooms in the new Shattuck Hotel, but I have heard good things.
Thanks dball and paleodan, it looks like it is Claremont FTW. Can’t pass up the sale rates.

It does seem like a good deal. But it is a bit of a hike to campus. The rooms are kinda old and creaky, but the common areas are nice, and they broadcast a radio show after games in one of the bars. I was thinking of trying something new.

and contemplate that you are seeing a filtered TwistNHook, constrained by the other Marshawnthusiats. Because as strange as this “Mr. NHook” is on CGB, the person on the other end of the internet is even more unreasonable in real life.
Although he makes a living as a lawyer, so… he can’t be that weird, right?

Hooray for more BCS antitrust hearings…
Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah, the subcommittee’s top Republican, had sought the hearing. His office did not immediately return telephone and e-mail messages.
Football fans in Hatch’s state were furious that Utah was bypassed for the national championship despite going undefeated in the regular season.Really? They were furious? I don’t recall hearing an awful lot of grumbling about that Sugar Bowl bid…
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
Yeah they would have lost to both Oklahoma and Florida. Sorry guys. They would have lost to USC as well. They were probably the 4th or 5th best team in the nation last year (Florida, USC, Oklahoma, maybe Texas, Utah)

UC Berkeley scientist lays the smack down on creationists after visiting their ever-so-delightful museum:
But while there were a few laughs and some clowning for the camera, most left more offended than amused by the frightening way in which evolution — and their life’s work — was attacked.
“It’s sort of a monument to scientific illiteracy, isn’t it?” said Jerry Lipps, professor of geology, paleontology and evolution at University of California, Berkeley.
“Like Sunday school with statues… this is a special brand of religion here. I don’t think even most mainstream Christians would believe in this interpretation of Earth’s history.”

Mike Krzyzewski has been linked to the Lakers head coaching job multiple times since 2004 and again denied the possibility on Tuesday.
“I’m not going to the Lakers. They have one of the great coaches in the game,” Krzyzewski said. “I don’t know where that rumor started, but there has been nothing done like that, and I’m not leaving Duke. Whatever you hear about anything like that, I will never leave Duke until I leave coaching.”

Brandon Jennings disses the Knicks, Ricky Rubio and Chris Duhon in an interview with Joe Budden.
“Fuck the Knicks,” Jennings says.
“Them niggas are always gonna be fuckin’ weak,” he continues.
He also referred to his head coach Scott Skiles as “nigga” twice after Joe Budden had some harsh words for Skiles.
Brandon Jennings, the highly-touted point guard, was drafted 10th overall in the 2009 draft by the Milwaukee Bucks.

I love how some people consider it racist that a team has like 6 white guys. If they were completely awful players solely on the roster to not have a black guy take up that spot, then it would make sense. But look at that list. Rasho is an expiring contract. McRoberts has big time potential and is a super energy guy. Dunleavy averaged 17 points a game in his first full year as a Pacer. Murphy had a ridiculous number of double doubles last year. Hansbrough is going to be a solid NBA player. Foster has been with the team forever and is a good rebounder and glue guy. Diener barely plays and will probably have his playing time taken away by Price this year.

If the Warriors trade Belinelli, Wright and Biedrins for Stoudemire, I want the Warriors to sign Foster.
2009-10 Golden State Warriors:
PG — Ellis / Curry / Law

PF — Randolph / Turiaf / Davidson
C — Stoudemire / Foster
Foster is a free agent, right?
