Best thing we can do is kick UCLA's asses this and next year...and do the same to Tennessee (on their own turf and then again on ours) when we meet...)

Also, I don't dislike the weasel any more. I actually kind of like the guy in that he is an underdog and doesn't seem to take himself too seriously.

He's now a likable scoundrel. Like Paul Newman or Robert Redford in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Pac-10 all the way (except when UW plays OOC).

I must say, however, I don't care for the comparisons to Paul Newman or Robert Redford. Newman and Redford are American icons. The Weasel, not so much. I agree with you though, after reading the positive press reports the past few years, he just isn't as easy to hate as he once was (though I'm always willing to reconsider).

In my mind, Neuweasel will always be a morph of Hermie of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and Eddie Haskell of Leave it to Beaver -- leaning more toward the Haskell character. Eddie was always obnoxiously sweet and a do-gooder, but only when it served him. As soon as the grown-ups left the room --- right back to his real self.

Other than the beavers and the huskies, I almost always root for the pac-10 to win in non conference games, especially against SEC opponents! I can't stand the SEC's arrogance. Even though I can't stand slick rick, I'd rather see SEC fans cry, Kiffin fail, and Bryce Brown rethink his decision.

Also, it's always good for our conference when Pac-10 plays good against BCS opponents.

Hah. I had to scan some deeper recesses to recall "Hermie." Good one.

I was meaning to compare him to the characters those actors played more than the actors themselves. In that film, they were criminals. But, they were also intended to be liked by the audience. I don't know how he did it exactly. But, Neuweasel seems to have found a way to be likable, despite his past crimes.

Slick Rick has calmed down a bit as of late so I'll take him over Tennessee. Some SEC fans just drive me nuts...

I've been racking my brain trying to figure out which is which?!? Are they are interchangeable?!? However, I think Slick has more Slime characteristics and Lame Kitten is just a douche. IMHO of course.

No question in my mind. I gotta go for Slick Rick over the SEC. Might be blasphemy, but I think I would even go Beavers over SEC. Although Beaver Blogger would be the most annoying person in the world. Now if you asked me Huskies v SEC, then I would have some real heartburn.
