(No Ratings Yet)BREAKING NEWS! Request for retrial withdrawn (Excuse Me For My Voice)
Posted August 15, 2008 at 4:03 pmI’m at a complete loss for words at what has just came up on the SAHPC court case page:

(No Ratings Yet)Post-practice: Saturday (BearTalk)
Posted August 9, 2008 at 9:24 pmDon’t ever let anyone tell you practice doesn’t matter. The Bears had their first double-day Saturday, and the evening session was a lively one. It culminated with a big commotion at the end of situational action, when the offense and defense engaged in a dispute whether wide receiver Marvin Jones was inbounds after hauling down [...]

Posted August 8, 2008 at 9:17 amI’d like to talk a lot about practice or the overall merit of it; not that I think it’ll have too much correlation with how Cal performs this season. But of course the usual rules are in effect–practice is closed except to a few beat reporters like Okanes from the Contra Costa Times and Andrew [...]ShareThis

Biggest news: Projected starting left tackle Mike Tepper is out with a pectoral injury and pulled hamstring. [...]

Posted July 29, 2008 at 2:16 pmThere’s nothing that cures a season-killing streak in which you lose six of seven games like… removing names from your uniforms?
So says Jeff Tedford in today’s Chronicle:
Maybe as jarring as the gold stripe down the middle of the new Cal helmets, will be the lack of names on the back of the newly designed jerseys. [...]

Posted July 11, 2008 at 3:29 pmThe pre-game Storyline:
After a sub-par performance the previous week, the now #8 Bears would need a better performance against Louisiana Tech to continue to get respect with the pollsters. Nevertheless, the Bulldogs were expected to be an easy team for the Bears to beat.
The pre-game reality:
Every BCS team should fear playing a solid WAC [...]
