Good morning, Duck fans. In the days and weeks leading up to the Alamo Bowl there will be plenty of time for others here at fishduck.com/we’resohumblewedon’tcapitalizefish to break down the Zone Reads and the tendencies of the Ducks, Longhorns, and whoever Mack Brown is coaching when New Year’s Eve rolls around. Likewise, there will be time for me to skewer …
In a month where not too much has gone right for the Oregon Ducks, some good news landed on our airstrip with the announcement that Marcus Mariota and Hroniss Grasu were both coming back next season. This, combined with an almost too easy win over Oregon State and the news that Huskies Head Coach Steve Sarkisian had accepted a …
There is nothing civil about the Oregon-Oregon State game. For years it was the game that decided which team had the honor of not being the worst in the Pac-8. Then, during the early years of the Pac-10, it was the game that showed who was the premier program in the state. Now it’s . . . just kind of …
While it’s not a “day that will live in infamy” to the same degree as Pearl Harbor, today is an anniversary of it’s own. It was four years ago tonight that Oregon cheerleader Katelynn Johnson was struck in the head by a thrown water bottle at the end of Oregon’s 44-41 double overtime win in Tucson. We at fishduck.com/anychancetopostphotosofKatelynnJohnsonisokaybyus like …
Good day friends. On this, the week after the world ended, I would like to report that I, for one, handled losing to Stanford and living surrounded by Husky fans, very well. My attorney believes we may even be able to plea down to simple assault. But carry on we must. There’s another game this week, which means another chance …
This is the game that everyone has had circled on their calendars for almost a year. Oregon at Stanford for championship of the North, bragging rights on the coast, and a chance to play the biggest of the big games in January. Serious analysis of this game has begun, and will continue up to kickoff Thursday night. On a less …
fantasyfootballwire.com For the player, there is nothing like a bye week to get the aches and pains healed. For the fan, there is nothing like a bye week to reintroduce your children to Daddy and find out if you’re still married. But you know as well as I that you aren’t going to spend the weekend working on Honey Do’s …
www.camping-bourgogone.com Everything that I tell you folks is true. Some things may be a little truer than others. The conversation that I am about to share with you is, I swear, the gospel truth. It was Monday morning about 8:45 am. I was talking to a UCLA fan about the upcoming game. He said, “You guys wouldn’t be any good …
koze950.com If there is one thing that I have in common with Washington State football fans it is my understanding of what makes them mad. Nothing sets off a Cougar fan like The Color Purple. So let me tell you something indeed. It’s hard to write snarky things about a team that dislikes purple as much as I dislike purple. …
college-football.findthedata.org Before the 1916 Game, Yale coach T.A.D. Jones inspired his players to victory when he unequivocally asserted, “Gentlemen, you are now going to play football against Harvard. Never again in your whole life will you do anything so important.” To many Duck fans this statement makes very real sense if you just exchange “Washington” for “Harvard.” Long before the end …
www.imgcollegeseating.com One game at a time, boys! Supposedly Amos Alonzo Stagg was the first football coach to deliver that admonition to his team. Stagg’s team never played the 2013 Colorado Buffaloes. Oregon’s mantra of “Win the Day” was fulfilled on the very moment that Colorado joined the Pac-12 . . . and immediately bent over for the proctological exam to …
