Cal Defense Leaves Little Option For Air Force :: No. 13 Bears open 2004 with a 56-14 victory.

Uh, I just love this coach. Had to drop the story on the blog. What’s a better post after an article about the Antichrist? (USC comes to mind). After last year I’m certain that USC sees the Bears coach, Tedford as the Antichrist — at least to them. Should happen again this year. But I digress.

Of course, especially with the Firefox browser, this University of California website falls apart. This is a school with a Computer Science Dept, no less. Sad.

By the way, I only mention this because this head Coach, Jeff Tedford is the only current offensive genius working in football today. Nobody has been able to figure out his weird system. Generally speaking the Cal Bears stink, but this guy has developed something new.

    The only other offensive genius out there @ Pac 10 land is USC’s offensive coordinator is: Norm Chow.

    Based on my understanding, noth Tedford and Chow are running different variations off Bill Walsh’s West Coast Offense (WCO).

    Also heard that Chow is running Pete Carroll’s copy of Walsh’s playbook.

    I’ve only recently begun converting over to Firefox fulltime and have noticed a lot of sites like this where it’s just a mess (ironically, I find MSNBC works better in Firefox). What in the html of this site is causing all the problems and is it that hard to fix (from either Mozilla’s or the web developer’s point of view)?

    Hi John
    I don’t understand what you mean about the site not showing properly in Firefox. I’m using 0.93 and it appears to me to show properly–I didn’t go to Internet Explorer to compare, however.

    Um, yeah, we have a Computer Science department at Berkeley, John. The one that invented BSD Unix, RISC computing and the SPARC architecture. In the top 5/highest echelon of CS departments in the world.

    Surprisingly, we don’t have any classes titled “DHTML for Content Monkeys”, or “Frontpage and You”. We concentrate on writing our own operating system, or a compiler for a new language, during a semester. And surely no one from Berkeley CS goes near the football team’s website, for heavens sake.

    Perhaps I’ve been trolled, but you live in the Bay Area and visit Berkeley on a regular basis, right? Why you dis’n us?

    You’ve been trolled. Easy pickens’. Nice laundry list, by the way. So how come Stanford grads make all the money?

    Ugrads:
    1) I don’t accept your premise.
    2) Sense of entitlement.
    3) Alumni
    4) Grade Inflation (see #2).

    Grads:
    1) Entrepreneurial spirit vs. academic focus
    2) Sand Hill Road, SRI, Dad’s money
    3) Luck (Inktomi vs. Google)
    4) Alumni

    There’s a hook in me somewhere, but I don’t seem to care.
    Keep the chum comin’.

    Okay. Two real heavy weights of computer knowledge have 
weighed in. We've heard of those schools, sure, and they're good. 

But it's the little guy that makes the web spin. Notice 
that "Anonymously", who writes above has coined a great and 
wonderful phrase ---- "What in the html is THAT!" 

Not as subtle (nor as difficult to read, first time) as emoticons, but 
very expressive. Don't you think?

    Yeah, well you subtly answered the question in a weird way. And not with your list. It was the last lines. You said “There’s a hook in me somewhere, but I don’t seem to care.” Not caring. The Berkeley M.O. It’s a respectible position. The entire student body has this attitude. Nihilism is what they call it. It permeates the campus and hardly exists at Stanford. Tedford and the football team is the only hope. AND I’m certain he’ll quit before long.
