I have tried all the mojo stuff last two weekend. Wore my lucky shirts. Went to the brunch places that seem to serve as our good luck charm. None of it worked. Also, over the years for game threads on the road I have been using pictures from road trips. None of that worked either.

So what the heck shaking things up just a bit. Didn't go to the usual Saturday brunch place. Not going to wear my "lucky" shirt. I am going to go ahead and use Tele's picture from last weekend's home game capturing the last time we made it into endzone. We are going to need lot more of that today.

Kickoff is slated for 3:30 p.m. on FS Prime Ticket in the Los Angeles area with Steve Physioc and James Washington (Courtney Jones - sidelines) calling the action. I know insomniaclounge and many others don't like James but hey at least he is better luck than David Norrie (wait I just wrote mojo stuff doesn't matter). Anyway, you can follow the game online via the official site and WWL.

Also, I am going to stay off the game thread today because being in it hasn't really helped last few weeks. So it's all up to you. Let's see if we can bail out Classof66 today. Fire away.

GO BRUINS.

I'm staying away from the game thread today

the music segment had something to do w/ Pearl Jam

I have no idea how that weekly interlude was greenlighted. It’s like the inane “Todd’s Taste of The Town Segment” on ESPN only inaner (pretty sure that’s not a word, but it feels appropriate for the context).

I'm going to try

to keep a tally of how many plays we go without blitzing and how many plays we go with the same coverage. I’ll probably lose track and forget to do it, but I have a feeling that it won’t be pretty.

rye OT- did you go to the W. Volleyball match last night?

Team played w/ a lot of energy, but they sure do make a lot of fundamental mistakes. Was still an exciting win tho.

by insomniacslounge on Oct 24, 2009 3:17 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Nope

I was on campus with some friends and we were at women’s soccer until Cheney netted back to back goals early on and put the Bruins up 3-0. At that point, we felt the win was safely in our hands.

SEC refs make SPTR look good

As much as we hate on the SPTRs, at least they are just incompetent. The SEC refs blatantly cheat for the favored teams. Latest example: Tennessee gets the ball in the red zone against Alabama, what happens, a false start and then a holding penalty against Tennessee. No replays were shown of either call. Unbelievable.

by bruinponcho on Oct 24, 2009 3:18 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, I noticed that too

Last week, they made sure Florida got the win. Today it’s Alabama.

Kai Can Forget About the First Team AA....

Tiffin from AL kicks his fourth FG of the game to likely put it out of reach for TN.

East-Coast Biased Media would have likely given it to him anyway, but it’s a lock now.

Don't know what Kiffin was thinking toward the end

Tenn had about 35 seconds after the pass play that got them inside the 30. Given that kicker’s performance today, really should have run another play or two (even w/o TO’s, there was time).

Wonder if we will see Randall Caroll today. Just saw this.

The post from the account of OCiAM, dated Oct. 22, referred to the Bruins’ last three games, all conference losses, and read, “man oregon, stanford and cal should have been easy wins ,, but [expletive] thys [racial slur] norm chow dnt be trustin us ,, so it is what it is.”

by bruinponcho on Oct 24, 2009 4:10 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

racial slur is a bit of lacking in context

he called chow nigga. He didn’t insult his ethnic heritage.

But he’s right. Chow will not trust the young guys. Carroll, Pressley, and Thigpen got 6 total touches against Kal.

I love how much Reggie wants to play

but it’s all too clear that he’s slow and lacking quickness as he battles the knee injury. He needs to be on the bench.

People need to stop over-reacting to Carroll story

Just reading up on it now. I will post his whole tweet later (unless someone wants to beat me to). I think CRN needs to suspend him for 1-3 games.

However, the hilarious thing is for the LAT do such a lengthy story on this in such a short notice (over a tweet) after ignoring years of scandals after scandals coming out of Chetey Petey’s cesspool.

Classic Trojan Times. Fuck those assholes.

This is frustrating

I want UCLA to take shots downfield, but that’s hard to do when your QB can’t take a 5 step drop before getting hit. Maybe on first down, we can go play action w/ max protect and a one man route. I dunno…I’m at a loss.
