I am an early riser since I’ve gotten old. I mean I wish I could sleep 12 hours like I did in my youth, but these days it’s more often six hours.

That said, early quack always makes me happy. Thanks J.

Ha, thanks for that. I copied and pasted that from the RG article and didn’t even both to check the names. I was wondering why SBNation didn’t auto-link his name.

No problem. Neon Dion Mathis. I figured there was an explanation like that or I wouldn't have...

Once again, thanks for all you do around this site.

Anyone seem to think that our players who get in trouble don’t have an option other than to take a plea bargain (in an attempt to eliminate any continued negative PR) for a reduced sentence, rather than taking the case to court?

I’m not suggesting this case should go to court, it just seems like all our players take the plea and deal with it (and it would make sense that the school does NOT want any sort of exposure that a court case would bring about).

I don’t think the plea bargaining thing is unique to our athletes. It’s pretty standard operating procedure.

Has anybody noticed when somebody calls Casey Matthews overrated the first thing they point out is “because of his last name”? When they say that it makes me think they’re being lazy & comparing him to Clay when they are two different players.

Because it hasn’t happened already, that is my thought as well. This doesn’t seem like a real complicated story. We know what happened, we just don’t know how. I have to believe that Chip Kelly already knows how Alonso got in that situation.

--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog

by jtlight on May 6, 2011 8:16 AM PDT up reply actions  

one twist that could occur

is if Kiko has agreed to enter a substance abuse program or the like. That could change the sentence to suspended and also the how he’s viewed by coach and school. I’d be surprised if he did not get some kind of diversion after the DUII, but this could be a stop at Serenity Lane (if that still exists) or the like.

I say this having wandered into the wrong apartments many times in Eugene (nobody locked their doors in the 80’s!), and sometimes not apartments, most notably when I walked into the kitchen Poppi’s Greek Taverna, curled up on the prep table and passed out. I learned about this after the fact from a Lane County Deputy Sheriff

Per his probation agreement he can't consume or possess alcohol during the duration

So in addition to submitting regular drug/alcohol tests for alcohol rehabilitation he might have an in-house monitoring station as well.

by jtlight on May 6, 2011 10:09 AM PDT up reply actions  

Not necessarily...As long as he is present in Eugene on the day of his alcohol treatment classes that's all they need

Because he already had a DUI, he’s probably going to get an extended treatment program. For Oregon, Diversion rehabilitation last 4 months for the first DUI, but since he had another public incident I am willing to guess that his classes will last a full year.

They didn't overcharge him.

They charged him with the crimes that he committed. If you think the law is too harsh, that’s an issue to be taken up with the legislature. But his actions (as far as we know from what the media has reported) did include burgling a dwelling, which is a felony.

How do you figure?

He agreed to plea to the lesser charges in exchange for the felonly being dropped. It happens all the time, but it doesn’t mean he wasn’t guilty of the more serious crime.

By the same logic, just because a charge was dropped didn’t mean he committed it.

by jtlight on May 6, 2011 10:42 AM PDT up reply actions  

While this is true, that also doesn’t mean he was guilty of the more serious crime. Prosecutors do make plea bargains to reduce their trial load and in the interests of judicial economy. Sometimes this means that the defendant, who was guilty of a more serious crime, gets a substantial benefit. But sometimes the prosecutor will feel free to make a plea bargain to a lesser offense than what is charged due to evidentiary problems, including problems to the degree that the defendant did not commit the top charge – that is not uncommon.

If we were in the original key of F natural we’d only have to flat B, as opposed to sharping everything except B! I suppose it could be worse, if the piece resolved to a secondary dominant we’d be shifting into modes of limited transposition. While technically a tri-tone substitution in a standard dominant blues would count as moving into that realm, since the extensions are still diatonic you’re really just augmenting the IV as opposed to shifting into a full diminished mode.

For our next lesson we’ll be covering the whole tone scale. Please refer to The Simpsons Theme Song.

Aside from whatever punishment awaits Kiko

he was very fortunate that he wasn’t shot by some homeowner. I mean a big, drunk, determined guy breaking into a house could go very, very wrong in those parts.

Didn’t a Japanese exchange student get killed by an armed homeowner when he showed up to the wrong house on Halloween?

Guy’s got to get his life on track. Sad to hear everyone call out Kiko’s name when Kelly asked for guys who played well during his post Spring Game speech.

Bieber fan apparently confused about how to measure success on Feldman's chat today
what is your take on the beavers this year? im so over hearing about the ducks…they start getting better goto the rose bowl and lose then goto the championship and lose..are the beavers gonna start making some noise this season

"I tell you the truth," Canzano answered, "Before Abraham was, I suck."

by GustyJ on May 6, 2011 1:58 PM PDT up reply actions  

If by "noise" he means "a .500" season, then probably

I’m not sure though…I don’t think the beavs offense will be able to handle a lot of Pac 12 defenses without a decent running game.

by axemen23 on May 6, 2011 2:00 PM PDT up reply actions  

Maybe he means noise literally. I think the Beavers are capable of a loud fart. It might stain the underpants a little, but it will certainly be noisy.

I would also assume that farm animals, when being abducted, tend to make loud noises

So that could also be what our friendly Bieber Believer was referring to.

Am I the only one who just laughs when USC fans start making threats about going independent?

I just find it funny, especially considering the current condition of their football program. I really would like to see them try to pull that on Larry Scott. Pretty sure Pat Haden would get the closest thing possible to the Chip Kelly stare.

by ppilot on May 6, 2011 2:35 PM PDT reply actions  

USC would NEVER get a better deal than what we are all about to get by going independent.

I am not entirely sure if this is true or not, but I would imagine that their fanbase is not large enough or spread out enough to sustain going independent (a la BYU or Notre Dame who have large and widespread fanbases).

Their fanbase in SoCal has magically disappeared to a certain extent in the past few seasons…Maybe they have moved to other parts of the country or something! /sarcasm

You point out the most important fact. They have fair weather fans.

And they haven’t even begun to see the worst of this. Many of you have a much better understanding than I do about how their scholarship limitations will play out over the next couple seasons, but from my understanding they are gonna be in trouble in about 4 seasons.

That list is wildly inaccurate. Unless a recruit comes out and says “these are my top 10, 8, 5, 3” or “I’m no longer interested in…”, they kind of make their best guesses.

He has got good speed for a tall lanky guy like him.

It is interesting that he seems to play an h-back type of position sometimes in high school in addition to TE. Solid pickup I guess. I would assume that he is being recruited for the Lyerla TE/H Back position.
