Like many Cal students, I hate Stanfurd with a passion. And like many Cal students, most of my animosity stems from the fact that The Farm rejected me in the college admissions process. Regardless, we all know how much Stanfurd licks a salty nutsack. Yet somehow, we can't win the Big Game.
For those of you unfamiliar with this, the Big Game is the annual football game between Stanfurd and Cal. For the past some odd years, Stanfurd has somehow used their equestrian connections to manipulate the officials and cheated Cal out of a victory. But this year will be different- it has to be because its the last time I will see the Big Game at Cal and we have to win.
The only other intercollegiate sport I care about is basketball. Cal, while notably better in basketball than in football, has yet to make it to the Big Dance. Two years in a row Cal has made it to the NIT ... whoop-dee-freakin-doo. We even won it one year- what does that make us the 65th best team in the country? Meanwhile, The Farm's barn team has managed to choke during March Madness. Maybe's its because they're not used to the pressure- those rich, elitist preppies. At least Mad Dog Madsen won't be back this year. But this will be the year- we will make it to the Dance. If only Kidd and Abdur-Rahim hadn't left.
This may all seem like a bunch of senseless rambling. And you're probably right. But that's what Cal football and basketball has driven me to. But this year will be different. It has to be.
