In part one of our Rebuilding the shield series, I explained the beginning of the raising of the Titanic that is the Oakland Raiders. In no way, shape, or form are we saying that this is the only way it will work. This is just one way that we believe will help turn the Raiders around and put then back on top of the NFL world.....In part one of our Rebuilding the shield series, I explained the beginning of the... more

As the season begins to wind down, the post-season picture begins to gain clarity. This clarity is what allows coaches, players, and fans to know what it is that their team needs to accomplish over these final weeks of the season in order to reach primary or secondary goals that they have for their team....As the season begins to wind down, the post-season picture begins to gain clarity.... more

It's true about this year being a 'down' year for the Pac-10. The MWC and the WAC teams have shown that they can compete and win in the Pac-10 this season, which for an elite conference is not good news. With that reality, teams from other lesser-conferences would still be hard-pressed to make a case against either of the two teams playing in the Pac-10 marquee matchup this weekend....It's true about this year being a 'down' year for the Pac-10.

The first half theme has been the ineptitude of UCLA's offense or the magnificent Cal defense, depending on who you're talking to. You could also say that it's a combination of both. The Bruins have struggled...The first half theme has been the ineptitude of UCLA's offense or the magnificent... more

Stephens signed Assembly Bill 626 into law, which turned the State Normal School at Los Angeles into the Southern Branch of the University of California at Berkeley. They became the second university in the state of California's history...On May 23, 1919, California Governor William D. Stephens signed Assembly Bill 626 into... more

No game for the Bears this weekend. Bears Backers may go into withdrawals after such a complete victory last week against the Arizona State Sun Devils. Jeff Tedford and the rest of his gang may be happy with the outcome, but are they satisfied?...No game for the Bears this weekend. Bears Backers may go into withdrawals after such... more

If you believe in preseason polls, which I do not, then the Arizona State Sun Devils should have no trouble beating Cal on Saturday. The only problem with that premise is that sports have and always will be a 'what have you done for me lately' affair when it comes to prognostications. Take my word for it....If you believe in preseason polls, which I do not, then the Arizona State Sun Devils... more

When a team is bad, it's easy to throw caution to the wind and make adjustments where necessary. Are the Bears a bad team? A 3-1 record might tell you that they are a pretty good team, but they haven't been as consistent as their record might lead you to believe...When a team is bad, it's easy to throw caution to the wind and make adjustments... more

The last time so many young players on the Cal football team were getting opportunities to play was probably in coach Jeff Tedford's second season (2003) where he rotated between Aaron Rodgers and Reggie Robertson at the quarterback spot. Even then, it's probable that the 2003 team was still a little older. Their quarterbacks were definitely not Sophomores....The last time so many young players on the Cal football team were getting... more
