DUCKS. BEAVERS. BLOGS. PRISON.

For those of you starving for all the Oregon Ducks and Oregon State Beavers blogs you can handle, we've found them here and here, respectively. Shocking to find that Oregon State was so troubled by offseason problems-including the infamous "Gaysheepgate" incident-that they completely overhauled their discipline policy in response. Arizona State had a player arrested for first degree murder and didn't do this. Not to trivialize incarceration, but as someone writing this from heart of the Prison Belt, who doesn't know someone who was arrested once between the ages of 18-24? And what law-abiding person doesn't, on meeting someone who's actually been "behind the wall" * at a party, corner them and milk them for stories of shivs, gangs, and riots? Years of watching Escape From Alcatraz,Stir Crazy, The Longest Yard, and Cool Hand Luke gave us the demented impression that prison could be fun as long as you found a cool buddy, a guy who could smuggle you extra cigarettes through the prison laundry, and make a dramatic escape involving a papier-mache mannequin, cayenne pepper, and a rope made from twelve years'worth of saved dental floss.
* Official prison movie lingo. We're street like that.

Cool Hand Luke sez: prison is fun, kids!
