Weekend Recap
Ducks, Indians and Kitchen Remodeling, Oh My!?
A few days removed from Black Thursday, I've got a thing or two to say about the Oregon Ducks and the rest of the season:
1) I'd rather be Oregon than Oklahoma. At least our quarterback survived the Bronco debacle. Unfortunately, the Ducks may have lost safety TJ Ward to an ankle injury.
2) Few things have changed since the loss. There are plenty of opportunities to get back into the Rose Bowl. If Oregon digs in a focuses on each game instead of the prize at the end, they could find themselves back in the national picture, no matter what the BCS voters think. (BTW, they think Oregon stinks and now that won't change because many of them won't spend any more time on the Ducks.)
3) Point #2 is how it should have been anyway.
I will be part of this Saturday's Oregon Duck pregame show on KUGN live from the Moshofsky Center starting at 8am. I will be with Jerry Allen and Mike Jorgenson on that program. Yes, it is a BIG foot in the door.
I'm encouraged by the Roseburg Indians win over Gresham Friday night.
Returning players in the right places (and alot of them) combined with some quality depth may lead Roseburg back into the lime-light.
I wouldn't say Roseburg is ready for a state championship run, but how about finishing second in the SWC and getting a home playoff game.
But who would ever aim for second place?
Roseburg hosts Sheldon October 9th in what may be the league title game.
I spent the Labor Day Weekend...working.
We've all but gutted the kitchen, painting, refinishing the cabinets, replacing the trim all around and replacing some cabinets with shelving instead. New countertops went in Sunday and all my hard work paid off when Jannie loaded the shelves with her Pyrex against the light blue walls and white shelving and cabinets and squealed.
No really. She squealed.
That was all the payoff I needed.
Now, wainescoating, dozens of miter cuts and touch ups await us to make the whole thing "pop".
I am looking forward to Tuesday so I can recover from the three day weekend.
