Maybe I didn't make my point clear, I wasn't talking about the seedings, I was talking about a change in the time of year when college baseball is played. And yes, Oregon has a horrible Q3 record this year.

Here's a little different angle on college baseball, now that my Ducks are in the Big 10, the reality of college baseball played in the northern midwest is that the weather is a big factor for the legacy Big 10 teams. I've seen one suggestion that the season be moved a bit starting later and...

LA has so many "other" teams to root for that they just follow the winner. Two NFL teams, two NBA teams, etc. I think they have around a dozen pro teams across various sports. Plus, who's going to go to football games when the "Surf is Up". Before I retired I actually had a meeting delayed in...

My favorite story about Oregon uniforms happened before I retired. A woman from Dalllas that I worked with who was a huge football fan (Univ of Texas alum) and her husband also a Texas grad have two boys who at that time were 10 & 12. All they wanted for Xmas were Oregon football jerseys. I just...

I'd guess the Browns are looking for a trade with the situation they have in the QB room. Who knows, maybe they can trade Sanders for someone worthy of a second or third round pick. Gabriel might be reasonably successful as a bit of a sleeper QB. He's effective and experienced for a rookie...

Agree, but rumor is that one reason Chip Kelly left UCLA was lack of NIL type support.

I think Oregon is set at QB for a while with Moore, Novostad and freshman Akili Smith Jr in the QB room. Plus, if it's true Lanning called Tenn about Nico, it certainly doesn't sound like he'll land in Eugene any time soon.

I'm not sure UCLA actually has the dollars. It's a public state school and it seems that in Calif, that's a problem. One reason they wanted in the Big Ten was because they needed more money. Not sure of the NIL situation at UCLA.

I think he'd be a long shot to end up at Oregon, we've got a pretty talented QB room right now. My guess is that if he heads back west, it will be USC.

My impression of Illinois is that they can beat anyone on a good night and can be beaten by anyone on a bad night. Just dont see them as consistent. They killed my Ducks by 30 in Eugene a couple months ago.

I doubt that you'll need an investment manager at all. I'll be 78 shortly and just don't see the benefit of an investment manager as long as I've got my brain.

When thinking about "smoke stack" companies, do you have thoughts on the US oil reserve levels or the Baltic Dry Index pricing?

Ohio St doesn't have to play Oregon next year unless they meet Oregon in the B1G championship game or a playoff game. Point is no in conference game between the two next year. Also, no Michigan next year. The Ducks toughest road games next year are Penn St., Iowa and Washington. None will be...

Ducks are in good shape at QB next year with Dante Moore, Austin Novosad and Akili Smith Jr. in the QB room. Lots of talent and a couple guys that can clearly make the plays. Dante can do magic, Austin is a bit like Justin Herbert and Akili is a bit like his dad. So Plenty of talent. Plus, it...

Went to a duplicate bridge tournament today and while we were driving up I-5 about 20 miles north of Eugene we spotted 6 bald eagles in a tree and two in the air, just beautiful!
