Not sure how I feel about this thread – I think it could be incredibly interesting, but then again, when I think how I acted when I was 17-21 . . . well, I’m just happy nobody cared enough about me to blog about my behavior. I think it’s one thing to criticize on field antics and another to criticize someone for how they act at school and parties. It would kind of make me feel like paparazzi.

But that’s just my opinion, maybe I’m making too much of it.

One of the perks of being in marching band is that we get to hang out in the tunnel during pregame. Before the UDub game, Max Unger “asked” us to “shut that stupid-ass purple band up.” Naturally, we shut that stupid-ass purple band up. Also, J-Will almost definitely prepares his pump up speeches for the tunnel before warm-ups. They’re way too good to be off the top of his head.

I have met several athletes over several sports, including football. In addition, being a current student, I have heard rumors. I have also been a bit more privy to most, as my current situation allows me a little more access than most students receive.

There is not one student-athlete on the Oregon campus who I can honestly say I’ve had a negative experience with. You hear things, both good and bad, and you do occasionally get to see student-athletes in their natural environment (i.e. class—go ahead and make fun if you wish).

Now, I do feel that there is a social problem at Oregon where athletes are treated differently (unequally) than your regular college student. But that is for another time and place.

butthol, I’m sorry. You have a natural curiosity that’s understandable; I had it too as a HS student. If you want, e-mail me at Robmail2000 AT gmail DOT com.

Superman’s weakness is kryptonite. Blount laughed at superman for having a weakness.
