Of course, the cost to upgrade is a different matter, but just throwing it out there for people's thoughts.

I'd rather Cal spend the money on NIL for elite WRs for Sagapolutele to throw to.

Remember the screens before the stadium remodel? Yeah the current displays are not big but we have had it worse

admissions question: will a 2.5+ gpa and/or a ged certification from any accredited institution (including prisons) get u accepted into the university of minnesota's honors program??

direct quote from slugrat on the minnesota scout message board:

"Traditionally ACC teams struggle in the Pacific Coast Time Zone. I like our chances."

so does slugrat know where california is on the map & that the game is gonna be played on the left coast??

the university of minnesota=the land of 10,000+ mosquitoes (and a couple of really dumb azz map challenged alums)

them golden gophers knowledge of TIME & its impact upon football games is truly remarkable!!

nairb17: "Davis, Loya and Tafai are used to playing late games on the West Coast, I'm not sure how much that will help, but thought it was worth mentioning."

slugrat: "I'm not sure that's how it works. They have been in Minnesota for months. I read that the body takes 1 day per hour in the time zone to adjust. That being the case, they are pure Central Time Zone Heads at this point."

shocky feels stupider just reading this ****

Isn't there some kind of agreement with the Panoramic Hill people that the scoreboards can't become bigger than the existing frames (that have existed since the 1920s)?

Just pasting my post on the insider board from several days ago on this topic. In case it helps.

Quote:

Ok, let's cover the scoreboard thing again.

I hate the minitrons. I've always hated them. They were the first topic I discussed with the administration before the remodel even started and I even offered to provide an anchor gift for larger jumbotrons to Sandy. But in probably the worst decision of her tenure, once we had thoroughly beaten the Hill People to a pulp in court and they literally didn't have a legal leg to stand on, we inexplicably gave them a bunch of concessions to "make them go away" (wait, what?). These included a severe curtailment on our ability to host other revenue producing events at Memorial in the off season (Stanford just made $4.8m from hosting Cold Play for two nights in their stadium by the way) and keeping our scoreboards "in their historical format". Bleah.

This imbecilic agreement expired in January 2025. Yay! So those limitations are now gone. But our original Environmental Impact Report (EIR) under which the remodel was approved under CEQA does NOT contemplate a larger video board (the light pollution it would cause, etc.). So we would need a new EIR. As far as I know, that is not being undertaken at the moment because Cal simply doesn't have the money given all its other commitments and needs to take this on. A new video board would probably be about $5m at Cal when all was said and done. if someone walked in tomorrow with a $5m check for a videoboard, I'll bet you'd start seeing that EIR underway pronto.



Yes, I remember the concessions made to the Hill people but thanks for the detail. Now that the agreement is expired, I say if the money is there, f*** 'em and put up the biggest brightest scoreboards you can. The University's "neighbors" have since proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are not ever going to become less legalistic, and in the years since that all happened the state's politics have become a lot less charitable to "environmental" lawsuits that are simply intended to block construction.

sycasey, chancellor lyons should reduce his overwhelming # of responsibilities & delegate future bookings of memorial stadium to shocky, his 1st concert would be a monday niter starting at 9:00 pm featuring before the dawn with opening band the people's park warloads (not signed to any label at this time)

outta respect for the strawberry canyon homeowners all incendiary and other potentially lethal explosives would be safely launched from the rugby field with oversite from the berkeley fire department & the band would be limited to only 3 encore songs

2025 folds of honor at american dunes: 1st round update

CONGRATS to matthew "dirty" miyamoto bouncing back from a double bogey 1st hole to shoot a battling 72 (with 5 birdies, tied for 13th in the individual competition), not too bad for a guy whose greatest golfing achievement this summer wuz winning the jesuit high school father/daughter 3rd flight scramble or something

the 1st hole at american dunes is a dead straight 390 yard par 4 with utility lines & a service road way left of the faux sand dunes, this should be a safe utility wood off the teebox followed by a wedge to the center of the green for most collegiate golfers...however the skittish (it's a shame coach wilson & coach ireland don't mandate their guys get a yoga/meditation practice like schulzie so they can chill the **** out with deep breathing relaxation techniques on the 1st tee of big tournaments while also preventing back pain injuries) bad news bears got lost in the woods looking for a honey pot en route to playing the 1st hole with 2 pars, 2 double bogeys & a quadruple bogey, no es bueno ay caramba!!

trevor, the good news is that u beat charlie by 11 strokes in his 1st collegiate tournament at shocky's beloved coore & crenshaw restored maidstone in east hampton back in the day, let's build on that manana amigo!!

https://instagr.am/p/DOUWVfijDXw
anyways this is hopefully a learning experience and the sun will probably rise tomorrow in michigan and our bears will battle again like boats against the current in the struggle that must be with ur 50 year friendship teammates


but yeah cal is in a disappointing tied for 10th (outta 15 teams) at +14 after the 1st round, them bears got walked to the car today but it's important that tomorrow will not be still leaking thru the roof



life is NOT linear (and there will be trauma along the way *that u will probably survive)#


2025 folds of honor at american dunes: 2nd round update

clutch rebound day on the faux links by lake michigan with great scoring that could've been unreal low scoring if the bears hadn't misjudged the increase in the velocity of the the swirling winds on holes 1 thru 4 which they collectively played in an abysmal 13 over par, does anybody in this program other than callixte alzas (the 2026 cal commit is the best jr player in europe) know how to control their ball flight trajectories???

moto, ur 25 foot straight downhill par saving putt on the brutal par 4 16th hole wuz ******* money (ur putting stroke is 100% pure)!!...u wuz featured on the golf channel all morning long which is probably the only time u evah been on tv except for that time when kcra did that investigative story on u pulling the fire alarms at all the sacto red lobsters...6 birdies today, u got the game to WIN this tournament manana!!


charlie, u got the highest gpa on the team & an exemplary work ethic, uncertified life coach shocky's advice is that u need to diversify and maybe steal a car or something when u get back to campus...tied for 17th gotta luv ur 4 birdie output today!!

sihao, ur birdie 3 on the team's final hole today wuz ice in ur veins nails & gives the bears momentum...ur tied for 17th heading into the final round, let's finish strong brah!!

daniel, r u forgetting to hit practice balls before u tee off brah???...ur +9 on holes 1 thru 4 the last 2 days, let's work on getting warmed up, deep breathing relaxation techniques on the 1st tee & a clear dialed in strategy on how u wanna attack the first 4 holes tomorrow, got it??
https://scoreboard.clippd.com/tournaments/238464/scoring/stats/course

trevor my man, wut a difference a day makes!!...coach wilson & coach ireland r running the deep dive analytics and based upon ur 10 stroke improvement from a 81 to a 71 today they are projecting u will shot a course record 61 in the 3rd round, let's ******* go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cal's monster class best advice for berkeley freshman:

if ur gonna have late nite naked azz yoga with a very flexible curvy brunette yoga female from national city at evans diamond (because both of u got ******* roommates that r always ******* around & don't give u no privacy or something) make sure u use the 3rd base dugout wall which is less visible than the 1st base dugout to anyone who might be looking out the window at haas arena & don't let ur heart get broken when she walks u to the car forevah telling u that she still loves u but also telling u the lame sorry azz excuse that's she flunking outta berkeley & gotta focus on her academics and then despite all of that unfair devastation to u she finds time 2 years later to pose in playboy's girls of the pac 10 with her airport landing strip in full view for everybody on planet earth which u learn about while stuffing ur face with a pineapple & ham pizza slice at blondies on a tuesday afternoon prepping for ur next haas biz ad class



yeah shocky is a big fan of william faulkner



dreams & nightmares in beserkley (trauma is part of life & u will probably survive)#




yeah the jet ****** up & the biggest loser in this deal is his lovely moms javona who would sit in the north end zone lower bowl with 15+ family & friends at all of his home games just a 15 minute drive from oakland, that kinda familial get together isn't ******* happening in an empty azz rose bowl in pasadena

poor choices to a certain extent are a part of life, are those tears in the corners of our eyes or just the creeping bay area fog??...do broken hearts ever truly mend??


shocky got walked to his car by a curvy brunette yoga female from national city back in the day during his berkeley daze (dumb as **** decision with devastating consequences for everybody with no way out)#

There is only one Cracker Barrel in Northern California and it is no where near the Bay Area. There is no Cracker Barrel in Los Angeles County, Orange County or San Diego County either.

There is a reason all our starting RBs, WRs and TEs left while none of our defense did. Given decisions made by others, Javian made the best choice for himself, including going to another good academic school and playing for coaches that better understand a smart, academically oriented African American young man from Oakland, California.

I am sure he will enjoy winning 3 games in Westwood this season and then looking for another program in 2026

I honestly think he will stay at UCLA to get his degree unless there is a coaching change at Cal and he sees an opportunity to come back to get his degree here. Education is important to him, which is why he chose Cal despite our 4-8 record and why he chose UCLA despite their 5-7 record.

calalum, shocky is predicting that by the time tommy tofi turns 30 there will be corporate expansion and a cracker barrel in south san francisco that will be looking to hire an academically disinterested former football star with ****** up knees, got it??

agree with ur statement re: the jet's ucla coaches but would also add "soon to be unemployed" to ur descriptors of them

javona thomas tole me last year from her former perch at memorial stadium (15 minutes from home on gamedays) that jaivian is interested in becoming a physical therapist after his football days are over...with a total of 60 yards rushing in 2 games & the worst offensive line in the big 10 the jet will hopefully be able to stay healthy until his final college game in november of 2026 but honestly the odds are against that actually happening

stykur, where do u see the bruins "3 wins" coming from??...if they lose to new mexico this friday nite at the rose bowl (the la times is projecting less than 10,000 actual attendees), there's a near 100% probability that ucla goes 0-12 this fall

the cal staff is staying in touch with a couple of the 8 2026 current ucla commits particularly elite long snapper 3.5 gpa giancarlo cereghino from caldecott tunnel high school

2025 folds of honor at american dunes: 3rd & final round update

CONGRATS to daniel heo solving the riddle of the first 4 holes (playing them in +1) before rolling in 5 birdies the rest of the round to finish with a morikawa precision like 67!!

a key takeaway from this tournament is that ALL 8 players on the roster will compete for playing time, there are no developmental chops this season (which has not been the case the last couple of years in berkeley)


but overall a kinda disappointing tournament finishing 5th in the field but hopefully with a much greater awareness of the specific areas of much needed improvement (starting with calibrating ball flight trajectories in windy conditions) necessary to become a 2026 legit contender at the ncca men's championship at la costa's legoland course late next spring

the upcoming qualifying rounds will be uber competitive with the program's #1 golfer zinqin zhou hopefully returning to action after some back issues (that is 100% preventable with a yoga/meditation practice), world ranked amateur true freshman xihuan chang (who has already competed in 2 us amateurs advancing to match play in 2024) & fellow haas biz student athlete charlie bundy all hungry azz bears ready to fight for traveling spots to seattle later this month, let's ******* go!!

2025 bmw championship at wentworth (london):

michael kim is representing them california golden bears in the heathlands (shocky luvs sunningdale old & new, st george's hill and swinley forest)

2025 procore pga tournament at silverado:

shocky is posting up here in yountville on a beautiful fall evening & will be walking all 18 holes with 2 time defending champ max homa & byeong hun an in the morning & 2025 ryder cupper collin morikawa & james hahn in the afternoon...yeah 15+ miles is nothing for a feral doggy dog like shocky in search of scooby snacks!!

Shocky1, you are correct. I was a long distance runner for 42 years, I completed 50 marathons, 75 1/2's and numerous 10ks and 5ks, as well as other assorted distances including 2 50k ultras. I am now 65, and can't do it anymore for various reasons, but I did and still do eat correctly, and more importantly, healthy, athletically, and organically.
Life is good here in retirement in Ventura, and we still get up to the Bay Area for an occasional game, plus my father (98 years young and an old Blue) and my sister still live in the Lafayette, Walnut Creek area. Next time we plan to go, I will let you know. Would love to have a couple words and exchange ideas as I think we are on the same page.

Cheers my friend, and I am always around even when I am not around.

They are why he, and most of our offensive players, left. It has nothing to do with Ws and Ls. For many young smart, politically active African Americans from Oakland or Los Angeles who are drawn to Berkeley in the first place, there are more important issues and principles right now than winning football games. It is like asking if all the Cal basketball players that fled Mark Fox's program would have come back if he had just won more games.

Given decisions made by others, Javian made the best choice for himself, including going to another good academic school and playing for coaches that better understand a smart, academically oriented African American young man from Oakland, California.

I am sure he will enjoy winning 3 games in Westwood this season and then looking for another program in 2026

I honestly think he will stay at UCLA to get his degree unless there is a coaching change at Cal and he sees an opportunity to come back to get his degree here. Education is important to him, which is why he chose Cal despite our 4-8 record and why he chose UCLA despite their 5-7 record.


Could Rolo, Harsin and the RB coach recruit him, especially if we have a good season?

They are why he, and most of our offensive players, left. It has nothing to do with Ws and Ls. For many young smart, politically active African Americans from Oakland or Los Angeles who are drawn to Berkeley in the first place, there are more important issues and principles right now than winning football games. It is like asking if all the Cal basketball players that fled Mark Fox's program would have come back if he had just won more games.

minnesota game depth chart update: typical cal misdirection bull**** with cade uluave (ineligible for the 1st half) still listed as a starter and braden miller as the starter at right tackle (shocky will be on the field with rogg machine for the pre game warm ups & will be shocked if leon bell has not EARNED running with coach famika anae's 1s as rt1)

nfl update (yawn):

Lots of assumptions and opinions here. The current players who did transfer in seem very happy to be here.
