It is sad when the tragic shooting of all of those people in Tuscon makes the 2nd page of our local paper; however, plastered everywhere I go is football.  As an Oregonian, I do not feel priviledged having the ducks represent my state.  They stand for one thing, winning.  I feel it is only a matter of time before the NCAA finds something University of Oregon is doing that is unethical.  College football has been blown out of proportion by donors such as Phil Knight.  Can he not think of anything better to do with his money?  All of those poor players on the duck sidelines tonight hopefully realize they are puppets.  Phil Knight is pulling all the strings.  I am a college football fan, state of Oregon fan, and tonight...  an Auburn Tiger fan.  War Eagle!
