The video is incredible, better than anything UO marketing has done in the last decade. Unfortunately, the song doesn't live up to the video. A rehash of a mediocre Mark Morrison song is the lyrical highlight; disappointing to say the least. I watched it a second time without the terrible music and really enjoyed the experience.

Bah, it's brilliant. These guys aren't professional musicians, so it is what it is. I think they did a fantastic job.

On a side note - a friend of mine offered me a free tic to the game at Reser. Sweet seats. Naaah!
Yeah i don't know that I'll ever go to a game at Reser again. We've been through this before, but I've never had a worse experience at an opposing teams venue as I have in Corvallis. I've been to UW, WSU, UCLA, USC and Cal's venues, and while I've had mixed experiences, some good some bad, the 3 times I went to Reser were by far the worst. It's too bad too because it's so close to me. I dunno, I'd probably go if I got tix on the cheap I guess.

I've never been there. I told my friend that I'd wear Duck colors and root for his Beavs. He suggested that it wasn't a very good idea.
No matter. All's well that ends well and I'm 14 rows up on the 50 tomorrow! Woot woot... GO DUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yo, Met... thanks for the sig! GO DUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah what he said was totally minor, he shouldn't have said it, but it hardly makes Kelly "classless." They were in the midst of a heated game, there was some bad officiating going on, and the refs were basically letting Stanford get away with faking injuries to slow the Ducks down. Kelly was frustrated and let his emotions get the better of him.
You can read Kelly's lips, telling the official, "you watch, he'll be back in on the next play." This BS happened at ASU, and last Saturday it happened again in Autzen. It was completely obvious what Harbaugh was doing and Stanford should have been flagged for it.
