1. Black Uni (not) Optional. Seriously these new Nike (fitted) jerseys are ugly as hell and need to be put away. That said, if Stanford wants to pick up a set before they come to Pauley in a couple weeks I’ll be willing to rethink my position. I am sure that they could probably get a set at a good price over on Figueroa and Jefferson.
2. Dude with the rat-dog taking a nap courtside. Yeah, you. Get the F**K out of Pauley!
3. Steve Lavin. I am pretty close to not harboring white hot rage against him anymore. Time heals all wounds etc… He does a pretty good job on TV and seems to like it. He speaks well of UCLA and preaches the gospel of Coach Wooden. He even handled the awkward situation with Dan Guerrero pretty well. However, you wore a RED F*****G tie into Pauley and refused to change out of it! Bad form. I remember when you had 9 inch armpit stains on those cobalt blue shirts before halftime. Don’t make me use Google Image.
4. Darren Collison will have to be our leader back to the Final Four. The tournament is guard centered and while Love, Luc and Shipp are great weapons we need Collison to be the General and lead us. I think he did a great job late in the second half to help spark and maintain the rally.
5. With Kansas losing today (to OSU, yikes!) UCLA has to be in line to get the #1 seed in the West, right? Kansas and Duke have to drop below us. I say that Memphis will too. They don’t play anyone in conference and have had some weak non-conference showings. They don’t play a lick of defense. If they get a #2 seed in the tournament drop a bill on the #15 with the points and thank me afterwards. If you can find a moneyline it will be somewhere near +500 which should cover your bar tab for the first weekend of the tourney.

Couldn’t agree more about #2.
1) Who gave that d-bag a ticket courtside?
2) Who let the d-bag bring his rat dog in?
3) Why did ABC keep showing that d-bag over and over (and the idiot with the 20 year old Duck hat).
