On a more football related note, I was planning on heading to the Redlands game Saturday... anyone disagree about that being the best game to go to this weekend?

Redlands game on Saturday should be a good one...but why is it scheduled the same time as Texas and Ohio St?  I heard ABC had a tough decision to show Texas vs. Ohio St. over the Redlands/Whitworth match-up.

dawgs go deep

I think that the smack talk on this board should end....poking fun is ok and I realize there is  a fine line,  it just brings out the worst in all of us.  Amen.

I am not knocking the Oxy preseason, but I think that playing a weak schedule makes makes their won loss record misleading.

Wow ... I have been working so much it is hard to get on the computer to check this site out, but I decided to take time from my wonderful lunch break to post a few thoughts about all the action/bickering I have missed.

First:  WHY DO WE ALWAYS COME BACK TO OXY'S PRESEASON SCHEDULE?  I understand that you Redlands guys are mad.  Hey I would be as well.  I mean you guys play these tuff teams and lose by only a couple points. While oxy plays these "easy" teams wins by a large margin and then makes it to the playoffs.  I know it is hard on you guys, but don't worry when Oxy makes the playoffs again I will have my buddies pick you up some souvenirs.  Just tell me what you want ... hey the playoff shirts from the last two years were really nice!  Have you seen ... that right you probably didn't see them!
O.C. RAH!

I would rather not make the dance then give up 60+ and get the piss beat out of you. Redlands has been down the last two years and has not deserved to go to the playoffs. And Oxy could barely beat an average Redlands team. Pretty scary to think when Redlands gets back to a real level of winning football the program in known for.

Who in their right mind as a football player or fan would say that you would rather not go to the playoffs of not have your team go then to go and get beat!  You know what?  I hate the fact that oxy got smashed in both years it was real disappointing, but I would have done it all over again just to be able to make the playoffs and say that I made it.  I am sure that Eye and Oswald will agree.  Really ... I don't think that you believe that!
O.C. RAH!

Is the area really so dangerous that they have to close all the exits to car traffic aside from that one which they have a security guard at???

The area is not the safest around, but it is definitely not the worse either.  Head down to Central LA then come back to Eagle Rock and take another look. ... Assuming you make it back!  The gates being locked were due to an increase in car theft on campus.  They assume it was a ring that was in the local area as well, but to prevent it they took the extra steps and the theft stopped.  I am sure every school would have done what they felt necessary to address the situation if it came up on their own campus.  I have been to every school in the SCIAC and each one has it's up and it's downs, but Oxy is where I called home for the last 4 years and I loved every minute.  I am sure that ever school has its good and its bad so why don't we just end it at that and talk about football because to be honest I think that is why we are all here!

Man this is fun!  Hope everyone has a good rest of the week and can keep their mind on work and not on all the games going on.  I will be attending the Oxy opener.  Is anyone else?
O.C. RAH!

Gotcha. I just wish they had put up signs that said something like "this way to the only freeking exit on campus that's really far away from the gym."  ;) It's sorta a weird thought since I went to a school where you could leave your car windows down and your wallet in plain view and nothing would happen.

I don't think I've ever been to central LA (except for perhaps skirting by on a highway) and I don't plan on it!!!!

I have been reading a lot the past few days and my only question is this.....

Is there anyone out there from Redlands that might just think that the past 2 years games vs. Cal Lu were not a fluke and that maybe, just maybe Cal Lu could be a little better than Redlands?  I know it might sound crazy and I will probably catch some crap but what the heck.

DGD-  I cant believe we have a Redlands fan roaming the streets of Thousand Oaks.  If I see a guy walking through the parking lot of Vons with a UR sweatshirt on, I might just have to "tap" him lightly ;)  Looking forward to a great season......except for Oxy, Redlands, Whittier, La Verne, CMS, Pomona.  I would however like to wish Cal Lu and Cal Tech the best of luck this year.

One last thing.....the new guy on here rooting for Cal Lu, dont say anything stupid about Cal Lu.  If you are an alum, you should be proud of that and not have to come on here and make yourslef, and the rest of the CLU fans, look like idiots.

tigre....did a bulldog biteyou on your tail?     ;) :D :D

You are right about the preseason suff it cuts both ways as I posted before.  

Good luck to you stripes fans, or is it striper fans?

I think I am going to the game on sat...any UR fans going?  Im the 6 ft 6in guy that is built like Arnold and being followed by a parade of beautiful women. :D ;)

GO DAWGS........TRAP THE RATS!

I believe the movie "Valley Girl" was based on many Cal Lu students.  It is gross to see the amount of BMW's and Acura's that drive to the cafeteria every day (about a 1/4 mile walk from the dorms)

A small D1 comment:

USC is in Central LA.

I know and I am not happy since I just got two free tickets to the USC vs Nebraska game next Saturday!  Don't get me wrong I love the tickets and I will use them just hate leaving my car down there.  I am going to the game to watch my cousin play for Nebraska.  I know I live in the OC,  but for that one day I won't be rooting for USC! 
O.C. RAH!

simply heaven for them when daddy's BMW shows up on campus.

I think you're confusing Oxy w/ USC or Cal Lu.

Could not the OXY faithful have a guano cleaning of Guano Rock? 

What exactly is that supposed to mean?  Is that some form of Northwest migrant humor?

Tooth-  I hate to admit it but that is about as true as it can get...
