Send him down to Longs Meat Market. I don't know where the best fries are, but they have the best burger in town.

He "loves his Grandma".
Oh, and he's a pretty good football player too!
I like this kid already!

for some reason I've heard lots of Ducks fans claim our colors are green and gold ... pretty weird because I would never say that yellow is gold

The Yellow is one of the reasons I'm proud of the Ducks. So many schools have yellow in their colour scheme but seem to think that calling it gold makes it fancier. West Virginia and Wyomng both come to mind, I remember reading a preseason magazine where it said Wyoming's colours were brown and "Wyoming Prairie Gold", just a fancy way of saying yellow I guess...
To get back on a more important topic, sorry if this came up and I missed it but last I heard we were waiting for Diante to arrive on campus, is he officially enrolled and ready to go? This video made me even more excited about what kind of player he can be.

Being friends with Lynch and living in the Bay area, I'm surprised Cal didn't pick him up. Seems like it would have been an easy sell. Good job by the Duck coaches for getting this kid.
