Quack Fix: The case against an agent who allegedly paid an Oregon player, and Saturday's Civil War sold out

in Morning Quack Fix
Email
PrintNot a whole lot out there today (for the second straight day). Despite the shortage, no weekday is the same without your Wednesday Morning Quack Fix:
- During a hearing at the Oregon State Capitol yesterday on Senate Bill 5, a bill pushing to broaden the definition of an agent under Oregon state law, news arose that the Oregon Attorney General's office had been investigating an agent who allegedly paid former Oregon football player Fenuki Tupou back in 2008. The case has been dropped by the AG's office, but it's an interesting finding amid all the agent backlash going on around college athletics.
- Planning to attend the second edition of the hardwood Civil War at Matt Court this Saturday? Well, I hope you already have your tickets, because the Oregon athletic department is reporting that all tickets for the game have been sold. In fact, as the R-G's Bob Clark points out, tickets for next week's homestand against the Bay Area schools are also running low, so if you want to get to the Matt this season, you better get on it.
- Incoming basketball recruit Jabari Brown has been selected to the 2011 Jordan Brand Classic to be played in Charlotte on April 16. Brown is one of only two future Pac-12 players invited to the game.
- The No. 14 Oregon baseball team kicks off its season this Friday with a four-game series against Hawaii in Honolulu. For those looking to catch the Ducks live (who don't live in Hawaii), the Diamond Ducks host their first game at PK Park next Friday, Feb. 25.
- Also ranked 14th nationally is Oregon's softball team, its highest ranking since 2007.
- It sounds like former Oregon All-American defensive tackle Haloti Ngata's continued success in the NFL is going to pay off...quite literally. The two-time Pro-Bowler garnered the elusive franchise tag from the Baltimore Ravens yesterday. Of course, if the current collective bargaining agreement isn't renewed, the distinction will dissolve on March 4. Either way, Ngata can expect a big payday sooner or later, and the franchise tag is a great accomplishment for the young tackle.
- ESPN.com's Ted Miller took a look at each Pac-12 team's quarterback situation yesterday, and lists Darron Thomas as one of four potential All-Americans from the conference. Like last season, the Pac-12 will have a number of high-quality QBs to boast heading into 2011, and for us Oregon fans, it's nice not having questions surrounding the position this offseason (knock on wood).
As always, leave any relevant links or comments below.

That reminds me of one time I was shopping in Best Buy, I was by the digital cameras and I heard one of their employees say “pwned”. It brought up some animal instincts in me that made me want to jump out and beat him up. Luckily for all of us, I was able to tamper my animal instincts.

It should be referred to as a complete waste of money and resources. I mean, a piece of cowhide meant to carry a wallet and other sundry items couldn’t possibly cost that much, right?

Makes me hungry. One Saturday morning we (the wife and I) were watching one of the shows and ended up spending half the day preparing taquitos with beer-tequila-guacmole sauce and pork chile verde. The verde in particular we have made into our own summer specialty. I roast the chilies, onions, and tomatillos on the grill and simmer it all together in a dutch over directly on the grill.

Well....
She would grocery shop, and make fabulous delicious dinners, and always do all of the Christmas shopping.
What, expecting something else?? You are such guys.
I think if I add up everything, I’ve probably spent over $8000 on my drums over the years. That includes symbols (And replacing symbols), sticks, heads, thrones, hardware, the actual drums, and various percussive instruments. The killer is, I don’t even set up most of my drum kit for shows.
Add in various cables, mics, stands, a guitar, a uke, hand drums – I’m probably over $10000 total. I’m saving up now for an electronic drum set so I can practice in my apartment – so I’ll be adding a significant chunk here soon-ish.

I know what you mean by that,
my husband was a guitarist (he passed away four years ago). I now have a basement full of guitars, amps, pedals, recording equipment, etc that I know he spent a lot of money on. Unfortunately I have no clue how to sell it!
Most cities have at least one trustworthy music store.
One with a good rep that will buy or consign equipment at a fair price. One just needs to be careful. You’d hate to end up selling a ’59 Les Paul Standard Sunburst for $200 when they can go for well over $100K. It happens.

That’s why I never bought anything new, other than strings, cables, picks, etc. Still spent a small fortune, but not as much as otherwise.

I hate the sound of aged/tarnished/overplayed cymbals, and those are very expensive.
I use a new pair of sticks before each show, because a worn stick breaking mid-song is a pain. and I use pretty lightweight sticks, because the drums are a subtle addition to our music.
I’m also very picky with the instruments I buy. Old doesn’t always mean cheaper with instruments. I usually am willing to save up a few extra months to get something better than something that is just “fine”.
I also got my drums at a steal of a price, brand new. But when you have a potential 10 piece kit, you need the right type of hardware to make it all setup cleanly.
While I don’t have regrets buying what I’ve gotten, I would have probably gone back in time and told myself to keep with a smaller kit. Unless you’re in a fusion band, or a drummer that frequently plays in several genres, keep it simple and compact.
It's spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-S-K-Y"
Well of course there are differences.
Cymbals and sticks can vaguely be compared with sticks strings, I suppose. Although only Bill Gates would be able to play drums if you had to replace cymbals as often as you do strings to maintain your preferred tonal qualities. And instruments don’t necessarily get cheaper but amps and cabs generally do, unless one absolutely has to have a vintage SVT head or Hi-Watt stack. For example, I bought my Trace-Elliot AH-500 for $500. It was $2500 when new. Paid a total of $1500 for cabinets that were well over $3000 new.

by BigGreenWreckingMachine on Feb 17, 2011 10:48 AM PST up reply actions
Yeah. Sticks can probably be compared with strings. Cymbals are a lot more rugged, but thinner cymbals can break and crack fairly quickly. My first cymbal set was actually some shitty sheet bronze set that were coated in titanium. Super loud, super pingy, and they just didn’t fade. You would choke the crash, and your whole arm would vibrate as you gripped it. I actually trashed my splash from that titanium set. It has a huge crack running down it. I keep it around, as a “memento”.
I’ve had to replace that, a ride, and two crash cymbals, and another splash cymbal. This is from about 9 years of use.
It's spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-S-K-Y"
Heh.
A drummer in an early band I was in had a GIANT ride cymbal, 24"? 26"? Thing must have weighed 10 pounds. Sounded like beating a hub cap with a cat. We’d get a song going and he’d start whaling on that thing and eventually he’d get this resonance going that would wash out the entire band. Just a skull-splitting “pssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.” Yeah. We hid it from him after a gig. “Uh…no idea where it is…must have been left behind.”

I’m fine with buying something that’s useful and practical. $350 sounds like a bit much to me, but maybe that’s just the cost of quality and you’ll use that thing for the next 10 – 15 years. That’s reasonable. It’s still a manpurse, which is questionable, but at least it makes some sense.
I just get a bit crazy about paying $1,000 extra because it’s “Gabbardini and Jimbo” or whatever name is currently en vogue. Can you not get a perfectly functional purse or tote or handbag or whatever for $100?
Defending maligned chants since 2009
To ask a woman to settle
for “perfectly functional” would be like asking them to properly grill a steak. They just don’t have the tools/ability to do it.
/ohnohedi’int
I take exception to that,
I am an excellent griller and if I could find one purse that was perfectly functional I would take it in a minute. I own probably 5 purses, but don’t think a single one cost over $30. I love a good sale, plus I’ve never made it to the Coach outlet store.
I just
love stirring the pot. I have a good friend whose wife is much better at the grill than he is.
The first time I let my boyfriend grill burgers
we ended up calling them hockey pucks, and he still blames me!
I have many very functional handbags that I bought for less than $100.
I also have some for which I paid (ahem) more than $100. Regardless of the label, they are as a rule much nicer than the <$100 handbags. Very nice lining, excellent leather and stitching, extra special style. But I do I admit to having a love of the impractical.

There is a toilet that cleans itself
and dispenses a new sanitary covering on the seat between each use. Pretty awesome. Forget the name of it but my business teacher showed us a video in class that was pretty hilarious.
Girl goes into the bathroom at night club. Lays out some powder on the seat. Toilet thinks someone just finished going to the bathroom and “cleans” the seat off.

Are you contradicting yourself in the same thread again?

What are you guys talking about?
Me and my friends have referred to them as the Zers since the 90s.
Amazing that the Basketball Ducks could play their last 3 home games
in front of three sellout crowds with a shot to win each one. That’s going to be a great weekend to spend in Eugene . . . two games at Matt and three games at PK Park.
See, this is what pisses me off about Altman.
I was counting on just being able to stroll up and buy a ticket to a game, if not the CW, then at least Cal or Stanford.
Now it’s going to cost me a bloody fortune. And there are ZERO tickets available on StubHub.
Why couldn’t he just take his 0-18 like a man?

$14 for GA tickets. If that’s too much to pony up, go mow some old lady’s lawn. Preferably near your lawn so you can yell at the kids that come strolling across it.

And I’m too old to climb the fucking stairs. And that steep pitch makes my vertigo kick in.

a thought on the agent problem
If the Lane County DA didn’t want to prosecute because they would favor to go after a more violent crime over a “victimless” crime, couldn’t the school just get somebody in their legal department to charge the un-licensed agent. Wouldn’t this be looked at by the NCAA as good policing of your athletes, and perhaps violations would be curbed because agents knew you meant business.
Even if the school couldn’t do it, would it be possible for a 3rd party (alumn or anyone with an interest in the matter) to charge them?
Thoughts?

Charge him with what? I’m not an attorney, but I like to play one on a blog and I don’t know if a school is allowed to charge citizens. They could sue him in civil court I guess, but I have a hard time believing that the school would be or would want to try and show how they were harmed in the situation.

Just bought two tickets to the Cal Game
Will be the first time My wife and I have been to the new arena. Other than walking around and looking at the pretty pictures, anything I should do/check out from you ‘seasoned’ MATT goers?
Quack Quack Bitches!
Plan to spend some extra time walking around the concourse
so that you can look at the pictures and read the inscriptions. Also go up to the top and look down. The steepness of the slope is amazing. It is a great venue!!!
I finally visited Matt Court last weekend during the WBB game.
My advice is to prepare to spend a lot of time with a slack-jawed stare directed at the court as you think to yourself, “Holy crap, that looks infinitely better in person than every picture I’ve ever seen of it.”

For my experience
I was so wrapped up in watching basketball that I didn’t even look at the floor.
I credit my urine for the victory.
So who do you all think will make Ted Miller's Top 25 Players of 2010 list?
He’s up to 23 today, so far its
No. 23. Jermaine Kearse, WR, Washington
No. 24. Jurrell Casey, DT, USC
No. 25 California RB Shane Vereen
LaMichael James and Darron Thomas are locks. Casey Matthews should be too. Especially with Kearse there, Jeff Maehl has to make it. Cliff Harris needs to be there. Kenny Rowe made the pre-season list and was great though his sack total was down, and Brandon Bair deserves to make it. Of course that’s 7 players for 22 remaining spots. While the Ducks deserve a lot of representation after such a great season with a lot of great individual performances, it seems unlikely that he’ll give a third of the list to the good guys.
A lot of oregon players should be at least considered.
Top 3 will be
1. Luck
2. James
3. D. Thomas
I’d put money on it.

OT,
but wanted to thank you for recommending the “Scoreboard, Baby” book. WOW! I wanted to wait til I was finished reading to comment but I just had a sales guy in my office asking who the Ducks fan was. I said me, and he said he liked the Ducks but was a Husky fan. I showed him my book and he hurried right out the door!

They had to go to a different University to actually test the soil samples.

They beat us on the field. Nothing else matters.
I foresee a Bush/USC thing happening a year or more from now.
They did beat us on the field,
but I don’t agree that nothing else matters. We don’t deserve the NC regardless of the results of the investigation, but if AU has its wins voided it does matter to us. They would have beaten us by by cheating egregiously and that needs to be recognized.
To me
that doesn’t matter. They didn’t cheat on the field (that they weren’t penalized for). They cheated in recruiting.
I’m glad Cam was eligible for the game.
OTOH...

so....
many of you know that I coach high school baksetball. We had our senior night tonight, and had a huge crowd because the winner of the game clinched second place and a home playoff game for the first round of state. We give the seniors the microphone, where they usually thank their parents, coaches, teammates, etc. One kid gets the mic, calls out some girl from the stands, and in front of pretty much the entiree school says
“hey, uh, you know I like you a lot, so will you be my girl”
Balls. Of. Steel.
Oh yeah, and we won and got our home playoff game too.
