What Final Four team are you rooting for?
UCLA's out and all of my brackets are destroyed because I picked exactly 0 Final Four teams correctly, so I don't REALLY care who wins. But in order for the games to actually be interesting, I want to have some kind of vested interest in a team. Most people hate North Carolina, but I do have some...
California vs. UConn look back
Like many Cal fans, I got up at 9:00 in the morning with the attitude that our team had nothing to lose and everything to gain in a matchup with #1 UConn. I only follow the Cal women and had not seen a single minute of UConn basketball all season, but the stats speak for themselves. I'm generally...

Next Year: The Beat Goes On
Had few mins to check in before we head out and enjoy Philadelphia (as I had mentioned before this is actually a pretty fun city to visit). I can't add any more to what T wrote in terms of appreciating and showing gratitude to our three great seniors. I am going to miss all of them. Despite the...
NCAA Tourney - Ep 1. Bears on a Plane!
Hey CGB'ers, I'm writing this fanpost in the Natasha Vital style -- the blog. One from the road. Due to dumb luck and the power of unemployment, I am able to tag along with the spirit groups as they cheer the Bears in the NCAA (women). We are in LA! Which is just a return trip for a lot of the...
Heading to Philadelphia Early In The Morning ...
So here are some numbers that were going through my head last 48 hours as I was thinking whether or not we should check out our basketball team in person. Some numbers for UCLA basketball and Coach Howland when I see them in person. UCLA is 1-0 in a second round game (saw them beat #1 seeded...
