Misery loves company. This site was started, I believe, in 2005, during the death throes of the Karl Dorrell era, but also during the final 4 run in basketball.

Now, here we are, in 2011, having survived Karl Dorrell, only to have worse results with Rick Neuheisel and an uncertain future at best with Jim Mora. And the basketball program wheels have now spun off. There are 2 common denominators throughout this period.

First, on the negative side, this has all happened on Dan Guerrero's watch. And Chancellor Block continues to be indifferent to the slide in attendance and donations, making him an enabler at best and a co-conspirator at worst. Second, on the positive side, this continues to be the go-to location for hard news and insightful analysis on Bruin sports.

Thanks Nestor, G, DC and all the rest for putting in all the untold hours to keep this going, and giving us a sense of community which is missing elsewhere in our interactions with our alma mater. Here's to 2012.

I would say that it can't get any worse, but that would be tempting fate. In the meantime, we still have Bruins Nation. Thanks again.
