I hope you didn't drink too much of the above, but if you did, here's a little Morning Quack to take the edge off:
- ESPN's Ted Miller used the St. Patrick's Day theme in all his posts yesterday, discussing everything from the Pac-10's greenest units to the best and worst spent green to what makes each Pac-10 team green with envy. He even handed out a few four-leaf clovers. Oregon, of course, got plenty of mention.
- While most of us were distracted by the news regarding Bryce Brown's decision to attend Tennessee on Monday, The Register-Guard ran Ron Bellamy's column on why Oregon should retain Ernie Kent as the Ducks' head coach. But unlike R-G columnist George Schroeder, who wrote a piece last month in defense of Kent, Bellamy emphasizes Kent's success in academics as the primary reason for keeping him around, pointing out that Kent has lead the Ducks to "the best academic progress rate in the conference for the past several seasons."
- Just days after the Ducks captured the NCAA Division I Indoor National Championship, GoDucks.com reports Ducks Galen Rupp and Ashton Eaton have been named National Indoor Track and Field Male Athletes of the Year by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA). The award is quite a mouthful, but certainly nothing short of deserving for Rupp and Eaton.
- If you have a few extra minutes, read Ken Goe's feature on former Oregon football player Bjarne Jensen. It's an interesting, albeit tragic, story that's definitely worth a read.
- A few announcements from Oregon's football team: Redshirt freshman Jennings Stewart, the Ducks offensive scout team award winner from last season, will play on the other side of the ball next year; defensive tackle Hayden Piper has left the team; and redshirt freshman Dion Jordan moved back to tight end from a season at wide receiver.
- One last thing: Make sure you show you're support for 21-year-old Oregon student Kailee, one of 64 coeds vying to be named America's Hottest College Girl by CollegeHumor. Voting in the match-up between Kailee and Texas A&M's Arlette begins this Friday.
That's all I've got. If you see something else around, post it in the comments.
GO DUCKS!

Kailee is hot, but she’s no Amanda Pflugrad.
There is NO WAY she should lose to that A & M girl. NO WAY! If she loses it’s another indication of lack of respect for the PAC 10.
"When Bellotti attempted to shake the hand of Oklahoma State quarterback Zac Robinson after the game, Robinson offered his left hand. His right was swollen and battered from the Ducks' defense."

God bless the Pflugrad family.

We have THE BEST cheerleaders in the country
I am not trying to be biased, but we really do. They are not over-tanned or apply their makeup with a paintball gun. They really are beautiful…
May we hand you your taints on a silver platter...

its not biased, truth
sorry to burst your bubble but the first thing you get when you make the squad is a make up paint gun.
Ducks Go!
Already miss you MB

Make squad = make-up gun? Really? I was imagining for some kind of spanking initiation, like in Animal House.

I concur.
That chick from A&M is not even on the same level as Kailee. Not even close!!!1

Didn’t the Oregon helmet go against the Texas A & M helmet last year?
Internet rivalry!

I may be in the minority...
But Kailee is not hot, and she is not hotter than the A&M girl (who isn’t really hot, either, but is better looking than Kailee).
Sorry to be the party pooper on this one.

I didn’t even look at the Texas A&M girl… I’m at work, and some/most of the pictures of Kailee aren’t exactly work appropriate – grey area at best. Better safe than sorry.
However, given your previous stated opinion of Erin Andrews, I’ll take your word for it. Until Nate chimes in.

In fact, they all look like girls who are bitter that they didn’t make the first cut for Playboy’s college issue. There’s a prevalence of skankiness among the contestants. Also, fake tans.

Don’t like the orange-leather look, huh?

There’s really nothing more unattractive than that burnt orange-tinted fake tan crap. Yuk.

My favorite part about that is her teeth are super bright white, and her eyes look like some dark void. Surely, this woman is evil.

She is hot in real life
I worked with her last summer and I can assure you that in real life she is very attractive. She got into some slutty college girl calender and got, well, sluttified for the pictures. But she was hot.

Oh – and green beer is a shame.
If you’re gonna drink, do it right!
1. First, take a wide raw potato, and cut in half, or at least a 2 1/2 inch cut from the end.
2. Then take an ice cream scoop (A spoon works too), and scoop out a chunk of the inside of the potato half. You’ll want to keep at least a 1/4 inch wall of potato.
3. Throw in the freezer for a couple hours so it hardens, and cools. You should now have a potato “shot glasses”.
Grab your favorite Irish Whiskey, for me, it is Bushmills. Tullamore Dew or Jamison’s works too.
Slainte!

Mmmmm
Big Tullamore Dew fan here. I might have to try that potato shot thing.

You might be thinking “WHAT?!?! A shot out of a potato? That’s CRAZY!” – but trust me, it feels so right when you do it.

I'm more of an Irish Car Bomb fan...
Half a pint glass of Guiness
a Shot of your favorite Irish Whiskey and Bailey’s
Drop the shot glass in the Guiness and chug!
Tastes like chocolate milk and is VERY delicious! I have gotten in trouble many times for drinking too many. They taste WAY too good.
May we hand you your taints on a silver platter...

The sad thing is
There are not a lot of bars that I frequent that have Guiness on tap. I sometimes have to settle for Black Butte Porter. While tasty on its own, it does not belong in a Car Bomb!

BBP with Irish Cream? Ugh. No thanks.
I’ll take a Black Butte, Irish Whiskey, and an Irish Cream separately though.

Sorry to distract everyone with the hot chick.
But come on, what’s better for your hangover, huh? Let’s be honest with ourselves here.

NEVER say that you are sorry for distracting us with a hot chick
I could be telling you that I was terminally ill and if you cut me off in the middle to show me a smoking hot chick I wouldn’t be offended in the slightest!

a picture of perfection!
JShufelt, that is doing it right. Of course, I prefer not to ruin a good
potato with jamison’s.
