Congratulations to former Golden Bears standout and Oakland A's manager Bob Melvin for being named the MLB American League Manager of the Year! After a dramatic finish to a 94-win season that saw the A's use 19 rookies (briefly including an all-rookie starting rotation!), this is a well-deserved award.

Every Down Review @ Rule of Tree

Dear all, I do apologize for, as a Stanford fan, entering into the presence of this august community, and I would never think of ostentatiously trolling teams not named USC, but if any of y'all would like to go over the plays of last Saturday's game (maybe not today, but eventually?), here's an every down review. I've found that charting the playcalling tells you a lot about the flow of a game. There's a link in the post to the second half.

Two versions: a small-file version for those with slow connections, and a high-quality version for those who want to save a good copy. If you're one of those awesome people who seed throughout the season, please seed both files. Specs: 1.3 GB file size, mp4/h.264/aac, 960x540p, 30fps, 1 Mbps average bit rate (VBR). Specs: 4.8 GB file size, mp4/h.264/aac, 1280x720p, 30fps, 3.8 Mbps average bit rate (VBR). Actual video dimensions will be slightly smaller because I removed the ticker at the bottom. Please continue to seed for a couple of days until there are a lot of seeds. You don't need to keep your computer on all the time, just seed when you're using the computer. I recommend playing the files with VLC. :axe
