For some reason, The Bart has the entrance closest to where I park for the CSU games, Gate C, closed this year. Not bad if it's me, but my Dad doesn't particularly like the cold. The three other gates remain open.

Me: "Is Gate C going to be closed all year?"
Ticket-Taker: "Yes, but the other gates are all open."
Me: "Why?"
Ticket-Taker: "Not enough business."
Me: "?"
Ticket-Taker: "How about a roster for tonight's game?"

Meal of Links

Here is what the Google Intranet looks like. Has some very cool features.

They are doing a movie about Joe Namath. Broadway Joe will be played by Jake Gyllenhaal. I hope they show the part where Namath failed to beat a team with a winning record after Super Bowl III. Well, at least mention it.

Red meat, burgers, pizza, eggs, Canadian bacon...all good for you. Surprised that Carl's Jr. hasn't figured a way to get all of that on a bun.

Exercise Yard

As I mentioned, I took my Dad to see the Cleveland State game tonight. Ah, Cleveland State, the land of acceptance. Where students can where the shirt, "God Thinks You're a Faggot". Seems rather offensive, but I guess he realized if he wore it to a CSU game, not many people would be attending.

The opponent tonight was the Matadors of Jim Rome's favorite college, Cal State-Northridge. Northridge was the third leading scoring team in the country coming in. Hard to believe that in the first half when both teams struggled mightily. Might have been jet lag. If Northridge had a big man in the middle, they would be pretty special. CSU did lead at the half by two.

But Northridge played a decent game in the second half and eventually pulled away for the win. They hit some threes down the stretch to help out. CSU ran into the same roadblock as last year. They just cannot put teams away while leading with less than 10 minutes to play. CSU loses, 78-68.
