The Ballad of the Green Brigade

Fighting Ducks against the sky

Tall indeed

Tall indeed.

These are men who jump so high

Men who mean just what they say

"I intend to return to school simply to hang another half a hundred on the nasty Beavers. Peace out, and Go Ducks."

“I intend to return to school simply to hang another half a hundred on the nasty Beavers.  Peace out, and Go Ducks.”

The brave men of the Green Brigade

Trained to live on Husky meat

Mmmmm....

Mmmmm….

Washington they’re sure to beat

Fleeing town

Fleeing town.

Men who fight by day and night

Under the lights

Under the lights.

Listen not, to Herbie’s hype

"I think the Huskies will be strong this year.  Want a brat?"

“I think the Huskies will be strong this year.  Want a brat?”

Put silver wings on my son’s chest

Or at least on his pads

Or at least on his pads.

Make him one of Oregon’s best

Give him everything he needs

Yes, he needs this.

Yes, he needs this.

Keep him clear of Cliffy’s weed.

For the Exciting 2024 Football Season….

We will be publishing between four and six articles per week during the football season, as we skip Saturdays with all the distraction of GameDay for us. Check through the week, and in particular check for Analysis articles on most Fridays.

The Our Beloved Ducks Forum (OBD) is where we we discuss the article above and many more topics, as it is so much easier in a message board format over there.  At the free OBD forum we will be posting Oregon Sports article links, the daily Press Releases from the Athletic Department and the news coming out every day.

Our 33 rules at the free OBD Forum can be summarized to this: 1) be polite and respectful, 2) do not tell anyone what to think, feel or write, and 3) no reference of any kind to politics. Easy-peasy!

OBD Forum members….we got your back.  No Trolls Allowed!
