Rugbee is not a real sport, so It's fitting Cal would excell at it. Rugbee is a gateway sport, a gateway to football, just like Cal has always been a gateway for other Pac-10 teams to ascend to greater heights . No, actually I take all that back. Cal is not a gateway, they are a doormat. Because a gate stands in the way of things, a doormat is something that people just wipe shit on.

Yeah, fuck that little bitch Kevin. Cal was either fifth or seventh in the Director’s Cup – not a bad-fucking feat for a school you jealousy disparage! Kevin, do us all a favor, go for a swim in the bay. Swallow up all the oil with your huge mouth that you previously used for other dubious activities. This will probably kill you, but will anyone care? No, no one will.

Not a very clever slight but I am busy and just woke up. *zzzzzz*

I think it's sad that Cal is getting bashed as a whole based on a football programme. We have a pretty kick ass Rugby team, not to mention a lot of other strong athletic programmes. So what if we lose some football games, Go Bears!

I have no self-entitlement about our program. This is Cal, damnit. We don't have ANY Pac-10 athletic tradition in basketball or football! I'm disappointed by the collapse, but this is still a program in construction.

Your deterministic bullshit reeks of someone who has accepted fate rather than seizing it. You're probably that guy who believes in quitting instead of trying something tough. Enjoy that my friend. I'll stick it out with the Bears.

Granted, my grades were never good enough to get into CAL-- not that I ever entertained thoughts of going there. My cirumstances, however, do nothing to diminish 60 years of Cal mediocrity. What else can you say? This team, with it's lavish budget, enormous student body, and top 10 recruiting class, is still lucky to squeak by with four losses. It's unacceptable, and as a Cal fan, you should be the furious one, not me. You know, there's something that smacks of determinism in it all, as if Cal will never be successful, that every winter awaits another Holiday in San Diego, which, in itself, isn't terrible. But isn't it Neil Young that said, "it's better to burn out than to fade away." Perhaps Cal should take a lesson from Notre Dame and FSU, just implode. Stop pestering real schools with legitimate title shots (Oregon), teams not branded by God for failure.

Your IP ID says you originate from San Francisco State. Looks like we have another Cal reject.

The only thing you should be pontificating about is paper or plastic, since you will be bagging groceries the rest of your life.

I can't believe you people are even talking about these PAC-10 teams. Every Cal fan should be in exile right now. They should be burning their diplomas in trash cans and bartering hobos for Cal hoodies. Certainly do NOT defend them. Listen, It's not that Cal's not talented, THAT would be forgiveable. But the sad truth is, they're just branded losers. But this is nothing new. The University of California has a long, storied tradition of assembling teams destined for failure, at times even mystically so. Longshore should not be reviled by Cal fans. He should be glorified for what he is, THE QUINTESSENTIAL CAL ATHLETE, encompassing all the central tenents and beliefs at the heart of the The University of California Berkeley. That is, a bridesmaid's mentality-- always second place, haunted by mediocrity, incapable of achieving in even the most limited frameworks.

Really? Awesome! I can't tell you how many other unnamed blogs seem appalled at such trivial language. Which makes me laugh because we all know they swear constantly when in private or with friends. I was fairly certain you would delete my comment. Finding that you have no intention of doing so is refreshing. I have been reading your blog for the past few months and like what I see. Frankly, it's great! Your poignant radicalism, IMO, is not only justified, but backed by fact/stats in most cases. Thanks for saying what some bloggers aint got the guts to, or are too disheartened to write.

I trust you'll persevere as best you possibly can during these trying times, and continue reporting the unadulterated truth. Good Luck!

P.S. I certainly do not condone violence, but O'l Jimbo fucked with the wrong fucking fan! His insolence will not go unpunished! (-:

GO BEARS!

Ah, fluck you Jim. Say that to one of our faces and watch how quick yours gets smashed. Biatch!

And we hope the next earthquake in the Bay Area swallows up your stadium and your Never-Been-to- The-RoseBowl-in-Our-Lifetime Team.

Must suck to be you.

They were nice. I hear the caps they sold to the first 15,000 there or so were even better. Not a terrible idea to have throwbacks one home game every few years.
