I’d like to think the Kincks were reading…

But, they probably traded Zach Randolph to the L.A. Clippers for other reasons than my vindictive rambling.

However, I'm okay with being a Knicks fan now.

Plus, they were shamed pretty severely by LeBron and the Caves tonight, so it makes me feel like more of a fan.

And, Zach Randolph has to move to L.A. To play for the Clippers. The Clippers. You know, that other team from L.A. The 2-12 Clippers. Good luck, buddy.

Today at work, I overheard a couple of coworkers talking about the Civil War. And, because I never get to talk about Oregon football with anyone in New york, nor do I ever get to be an expert on anything local, I rushed over.

"It's called the Civil War," one guy asked. "Do they shoot each other?"

Nope, but I did inform him of the long history, which he then pulled up on Wikipedia.

I told him about OSU's near sweep of the '60s. How the Ducks controlled the '80s. I told him about the toilet bowl. And the fog bowl. And last year's double-overtime fiasco. I nearly foamed at the mouth with anticipation. And my coworker was the sports editor. So he listened and laughed and understood completely.

And on Friday. At 7 p.m. The Beavers are going to win again. Even if it won't be a Quiz show.
