Kevin Riley, the freshman QB is from Beaverton, Oregon.

So he must’ve been confused by the Oregon State Beavers, whose coach shares his last name.

I couldn’t even get through all of this one and I dislike Cal, that game was theirs and Tedford blew it completely. He does that at least once a year, but this was above and beyond the usual Tedford giveaway.

#7 – Western Ferentz. That’s a perfect name for him.

I also noticed that when the QB gets up the ref is standing there with his hands out to get the ball and he runs off the field with it. Talk about completely losing your head.

That, without a doubt, was the biggest brain cramp of the 2007 season.

I remember watching that game live, with a roomful of dudes with absolutely no rooting interest one way or the other in the game.

The fact that all six of us were roused from our post-game beers and snack food coma — to scream in unison some variation of “what the f*ck is he doing??!!” at the TV during a game we were only mildly paying attention to — speaks volumes of the level of stupidity involved.

i was watching this live and was screaming at the qb through my tv even though i couldn’t have cared less about this game. it was just so fucking obvious.

“that’s really gonna sting the beavers”

Obviously #1 must be Dixon blowing his knee.

I still think this is painful to watch. It was even worse at the time, even before we saw what an unmitigated disaster the season would become for Cal under Western Ferentz.

Granted the kid had the wherewithal to realize he should skidaddle the field immediately, so it should have had the savy to go outside rather than inside, even as a freshman …

BUT

Don’t you get the sense that your friendly commentator is a joy on the little league field?
