  • Week 9: Weber State @ UC Davis
    A steady, methodic buttkicking. Another disappointment. Hope they're better next week up at Portland.

    I didn't notice the front, I usually focus on the D backfield. Makes sense, we'll see.

    Maier et al made it almost look easy on that drive. The little draw for Gilliam, with four receivers spread, a beautiful pair of blocks at the point of attack, beautiful.

    Back up, only dark for a couple of minutes. Sorry I panicked.

    And, Pluto is down. Got four minutes of action, almost better than nothing.

    At this pace, these guys better hydrate.

    At least once I drove Rolf from a soccer game to a football game, but I can't even remember now (maybe a home soccer game, road Hayward State? long time ago.)

    Second on Casey Merrill getting some love and recognition. If for no other reason then I can tell some of my Casey stories. (most involved beer, and lifting heavy things.)
  • Select your 2nd favorite all time Aggie QB
    Jim Speck - one of the older kids I looked up to throughout middle and high school. Best athlete I grew up with, severed his achilles in high school basketball (about ten feet from where I was sitting, I still remember that sound), never quite the same lightning foot speed, but still a great scrambling QB. Last game of his freshman year vs Boise State, epic performance, falling short at the end. First class person since 7th grade forward.

    Bob Biggs - the Aggie hero when we were in high school. The season of the Miracle Game at Hayward (listened on KDVS), Boardwalk Bowl, wonderful memories. Got to know him when I matriculated, another first class guy over decades.

    Mike Moroski - hated playing hoops against him, so quick for his size. Would just torch me over and over, with his sidekick/mouthpiece John Sharper talking smak on his behalf nonstop while Mo silently grinned that grin. Oh, great QB, excellent pitcher, another wonderful guy since the first day of practice his freshman year.

    Like picking my favorite brother. Impossible. Great athletes, better men. Must be the water in Davis. Oh, Ken and the rest of those youngsters were pretty great too.
  • WEEK 8: AGGIES @ THUNDERBIRDS
    Man, I love Bob Dunning and his writing style at the ol Enterprise so much. He was my first boss, I was a teenaged stringer writing up Little League and city recreation softball games a long long time ago. He was a great friend to my mom as well.

    I didn't know until last week that SUU coach Demario Warren is a former Aggie. The injuries hurt, but would love to see fewer missed/broken tackles, and fewer penalties.
  • WEEK 8: AGGIES @ THUNDERBIRDS
    Our punter is pretty good, kinda would like to see Hawk give him some more action. Interception for the D, they might survive this yet.
  • 2019 BATTLE FOR THE GOLDEN HORSESHOE
    I can't believe I hadn't noticed the 'Club Fred' helmet sticker this year, in the CP game recap video above.
  • 2019 BATTLE FOR THE GOLDEN HORSESHOE
    another cornerback in man coverage, no safety help (they are in run support), beat deep 1 on 1. Not too good.
  • 2019 BATTLE FOR THE GOLDEN HORSESHOE
    During a commercial break, the mike was open, and one of the announcers bitched at the director about the camera cues (indication of which camera/monitor is live at a given moment). Not a polished telecast.
  • Week 6: UC Davis @ North Dakota
    And a drop on the last offensive play. Thinking about getting two yards after the catch for the first down. Disappointment.
  • Week 6: UC Davis @ North Dakota
    false start, bad snap, delay of game penalty. Not good.
  • Week 6: UC Davis @ North Dakota
    Went to man, better results. Left the O with a minute.
  • Week 6: UC Davis @ North Dakota
    Playing zone, with too much cushion
  • Week 6: UC Davis @ North Dakota
    It's not like I only post when we're winning, but this fourth quarter has been fun. Nice to see the other team's O-line worn down by our D, who has played with some fire this half. Their chance to seal the win here.
