The 12 Days of Duckmas: Day 1

In keeping with the Holiday Season, I would like to present a series called "The 12 Days of Duckmas", counting down 12 of the best moments from Oregon Duck Athletics in 2008. This isn't meant to be a comprehensive list by any means and is certainly not in order of importance. If anything is left out, the 13th day will be for finishing up the leftovers, taking back the unwanted gifts and spending those giftcards. 

Now remember to sing along now...

On the 1st day of Duckmas, Chip Kelly and crew gave to me...

 

a 65-38 win, 694 yards of total offense, a dashed Rose Bowl dream and a Holiday Bowl birth

I'm not sure there will be anyone in Duck Nation that will forget the 2008 Civil War football game. The hype surrounding this game was unbelievable. All Oregon State had to do was win the game and they were heading to their first Rose Bowl since 1965. Oregon came in wondering if the offense had finally arrived after getting by Arizona. The Ducks had a gameplan coming in and executed it to perfection. The "rebuilding year" had turned into 9-3 for the season. The calls for Mike Bellotti to be fired....all but silent.

All that was left to say was 65-38

Looks like he’s in absolute nirvana. He’s the one with his helmet off, two bodies to the left of the ref.

it also felt good

yesterday, seeing Boise St. lose. I would normally have rooted for them, but after seeing their epically dirty play versus the Ducks, taking Masoli out of the game among other things, fuck Boise State and Chris Peterson and their lame-ass blue field.

I agree :)

BSU has been overrated the whole year, done nothing on the field outside of the Oregon game, and I disliked their fan reaction to the hits.

TCU is the best non-BCS team. They played a tough schedule, and should have beat Utah.

totally of subject but....

I have to get this off my chest. I HATE it when you tell some one merry christmas and they say o well iam jewish or whatever they might be. And they have this loook on there face.
This is a Christianity country. I hate also the happy hoildays thing because you might make someone upset. if some said happy hannukah or whatever i wouldnt get all mad….. I would just say thank you. no need to get all hostile

DOES ANY ONE FEEL THAT WAY ALSO??

I think it’s silly that people don’t accept it as a nice gesture but get offensive.

But even more important, is that in this country, it is specifically a non-state religion where people are allowed (For better or worse), to believe whatever they wish. Many of the founders may have been christian, and many people in western culture are christian, but in America, you can believe whatever you want to believe – It’s truly a beautiful thing.

Merry Christmashanukwanza.

The thing is

I guess I have a Jewdar when it comes to that, so I tend to not say Merry Christmas to them. Or say Merry Christmas to anyone in general.

Some people love to get offended

So consider it a compliment. I’m not even a christian, but I say “merry christmas.” I’d love to say, “Merry Saturnalia” but few would understand, and some jews would probably get offended :) Happy Holidays does offend me though…only because some think that’s what you should be saying and I always want to do the opposite of what I’m told I should do, by those who like to tell others what they should be doing.

Merry Christmas!

I agree

I long for the days when pounding the beavers was a mere expectation, rather than a source of pride.

Ho Ho Ho

last night was great, Beaver fans were quite as a mouse, I made sure to where a duck beanie and my beaver honk relatives avoided conversation about the CW game.
It was a welcome change from last years christmas eve festivities

thank you Santa
