I'm not even a Ducks fan and I'll +1 that.

Why do people presume PDX people love Seattle teams?!?!?!

Well, there are some people who are Mariners and Seagulls fans down here, but I hate how the rest of us are forced to watch the Gulls or go to a sports bar.

FSNW probably campaigned to the NFL/MLB for broadcast rights in Oregon akin to Comcast doing it with the NBA in Washington after the Sonics left.

The contracts with the Ducks/Beavers for FSNW probably has language in it that the MLB/NFL games take precedence over college football games.

All I know is, I was extremely unhappy when the Seagulls moved to the NFC west because I knew they would bump my 49ers off the regular schedule and I'd have to go to the sports bar to watch my team. I hate Seattle.

I feel you. I hate having Seattle constantly rammed down our throats on the weekly FOX NFC broadcast. I'd much rather watch Arizona, or any number of the east coast NFC teams.

Well, and that's just it. A great matchup could be on, but we're watching the Seagulls.... no matter what.
 
I wonder if HCP was the one who fucked up that replay they aired at the end of the game?
The dark green patch on the belly of the Ducks uni's looks funny.
 
You know better then that son! Man I have a looooooonnnnnngggggg drive home!

Looked like sweat at first.
 
Just now got home.. kick ass crowd tonight
 
I'm worried about this season. But I suppose we barely escaped purdue last year.

I like LaMichael James. I think he is good. We should feed him at least 15x per game, imo. Our O-line needs to get better, and for the love of god defense...

I just don't think Masoli is capable of throwing the football. I haven't been impressed with his throwing game so far. The only decent pass he made all night was to a guy who dropped it.
 
Ah, I miss my carefree days as a U of O student. Back then, we KNEW the team sucked donkey balls. There was no false hope to torture us!

Did the coaching change make this big of a difference? Did our former coach/new AD bail because he knew his recent recruiting was awful?

I am a lot more worried about our offense right now believe it or not. Our Defense was constantly put in bad situations last night. They also gave us 17 points last night. With how much time they are left out to dry on the field, and how many bad situations they are put in.. I would expect any Defense to get gassed. I do agree about our Line, and James though, Barner has also been a pleasant surprise.

I think a lot of it has to do with how little time the line is giving him. I'm not saying Masoli will ever have great accuracy. But he is having to go almost exclusively to his first read every time, since he has a lineman in his face about 65% of the time.

The recruiting and coaching are fine. It's just too young on te o-line and receivers. It happens.

This. I dont see how people dont understand that. When you lose 3 offensive lineman to the NFL, its not going to be a seamless transition.

Either the coaching is inferior to what it was, or the talent level has gone down. Pick your poison. Masoli was over-hyped and makes an easy scapegoat - but it isn't fair to put it all on one guy.

Yes it has, hence the "losing the 3 lineman to the NFL" reference. While Masoli may have been overhyped based on his last 4 games last year, I dont think he has been nearly as bad as many think. There is only so much one person can do with a garbage O-line.
