Every week Kurt Liedtke (better known as Keeerrrttt1), co-owner of FishDuck.com, creates video blogs (vlogs) to update all you fine folk on all things FishDuck, a free-form discussion of current events about Oregon Ducks sports and all that’s new with FishDuck.com, with the occasional off-topics or rants.  It’s a little off-the-cuff, perhaps slightly pretentious, somewhat rambling, and hopefully entertaining…so kick …

To put things into proper perspective, we must first describe the setting. Washington state. East slopes of the Cascades. Deep in the heart of Apple Country. Roughly halfway between Pullman and Seattle. Lots of Cougars and Huskies. And right smack in the middle of Wenatchee you’ll also find Luke Gillespie the Duck. Even though the 22-year-old bartender never went to …

Someone wiser than me once said, about Leap Year, “Why, oh why, do they have to put the extra day in a Presidential Election year?  Do we really need to have the extra day to be told what we want to hear by people from whom we don’t want to hear it?”  I thought that was deep.  Personally I always …

The Oregon Ducks fell behind a tough and talented Colorado team, and played from behind most of the second half. Despite a late scoring surge, in the end their efforts fell short, or sailed long, in the Pac-12 tournament opener. It was Oregon 62 – Colorado 63. Oregon dropped the second game of the season to the Buffs, the two losses by …

Football Recruiting Twitter: @MarkDFlores follow me for witty remarks and MIGHTY OREGON NEWS!!! Tailback Thomas Tyner’s reaction and Oregon’s offer to offensive lineman Evan Voeller led the news, Saturday, coming out the latest edition of Duck Junior Day. Tyner’s recruitment and subsequent commitment to Oregon were “cemented” by what the 2012 Rivals #1-rated running back felt was positive feedback from Oregon personnel, specifically …

It’s the end of the basketball regular season, so the question is what now? But before that can be successfully answered, The Full Court Press has to catch everyone up on all that has taken place in the past month. First was the interesting and eyebrow-raising off the court news that slithered its way through twitter in the hopes that …

I once heard former Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz say he wished he could have put the school’s ND logo onto the helmet (in order to mark his era and signify moving forward), but that the tradition of the wordless Golden Dome inspired helmets, free of insignia, was too strong to allow such change, and the Irish would have been …

Later, sitting on a bar-stool swivel with your beer-drinking buddies, you probably let ‘er …
