LET'S SEE NOW, WHERE WAS I?




Of course! How could I have been so careless: Go Ducks!!!

And in case you are wondering, yes, I am ashamed that it has taken me seven days to acknowledge the return of the only reason I ever wish I could spend more time back in Eugene — our perennially-ranked and notoriously-outfitted football program.

Last weekend I made the first of about a dozen of these seasonal pilgrimages out to Summer's in Arlington to root on the mighty Ducks as they ran roughshod over the Cardinal of Stanford. Today's road test against always-dangerous Fresno State should be closer, but absent a medical downgrade, Jonathan Heisman... er, I mean Jonathan Stewart should be ready to rush for another 150+ yards tonight.

It's a 10 p.m. start out here, so I'll be watching it on ESPN 2 from my own couch instead of a booth near the confluence of Wilson and Clarendon Boulevards. It may not be quite as rowdy, but I'll try to hold up my end.
