NCAA Blogdome: Wildcat ... Wild ... Cat... Pow
As much as I'd like to discuss yesterday's crazy college game, I fear I wouldn't do it any justice. I just can't get into the college athletics like you die-hards do. I blame my Canadianess.

Oh 49ers, what have you gotten yourselves into now? It seems that in order for the team to acquire the land that it needs for a proposed new stadium in Santa Clara, the 49ers would have to purchase and operate the Great America Amusement Park, which is next to the site.
