Oregon Uniforms Getting Downright Silly
Presenting the only college football jersey that Dick Cheney might try to shoot. Oregon has played 11 games this season and has used 12 different uniform color combinations (I think they changed at halftime during the USC game). This is beginning to confuse even their most ardent supporters. This fe...
Lacrosse Cheerleaders Gotta Keep A Heads Up
You might have wondered why Major League Lacrosse would possibly need cheerleaders. Wonder no longer: Major League Lacrosse needs cheerleaders so they can be hit in the face by errant shots. Duh....
Jay Gibbons Finally Finds A Home
After his rather famous letter to 29 major league teams recently in which he asked for another shot at baseball with a minor league contract, former Oriole and HGH connoisseur Jay Gibbons was rather surprised to get exactly zero offers.

Oregon Ducks
1. Should of Just Been a Duck. The Oregon student section, or The Pit Crew, was awesome enough to get mentioned (with an accompanying picture) in Sports Illustrated as one of the nastiest, most verbally abusive, over-the-line student sections in the country.

It also obliterated Dennis Dixon's Heisman chances; he's not likely to play the rest of the season. All told, a rather eventful ...
Dennis Dixon Takes Tougher Classes Than Matt Leinart
You might remember a couple of years ago, when everyone had their proverbial panties in a proverbial bunch about Matt Leinart taking only one class his senior year, ballroom dancing.
