How's this for Boston Market? Just got an email from my buddy saying that this insider he knows has confirmed with a major donor that Tedford has been fired.

I know, I know . . . this is not reliable in the least bit. But, I trust my friend, and I really want to believe that he is right, . . . so I'm going to start celebrating now!

Tedford, thanks for turning around our program 11 years ago and getting the stadium remodeled. You've helped the university but now it is time for someone new to take over and finally return us to the ROSE BOWL!

Go Bears!

I also got a message from my friend whos family is on the inside saying Tedford is gone

You got to write the post! What else is there in your life now?????

Don't worry Oskiblue has no life.

In fact, I call BS, cause I know for a fact Oskiblue has no friends.

Is this the kind of cynical world you want to raise your daughter in Ducky23? Plus, we both know that you believe me and that you've already started to celebrate. You'll be sending out some derogatory group email in about . . .

Well, as much as Cal needs Tedford gone, him being gone is sad.

There is nothing sad about this! The future suddenly seems much brighter!

Breech, Silver, Feldman, and CGB all reporting that Tedford has been canned.

You are right. I am extremely relieved that I don't have to bring my daughter into a world that has Tedford as the HC at Cal. that would be a very cruel thing to do.

I salute you Oskiblue. You were the FIRST. want a medal?

This.

The celebration over the state of football and Tedford leaving seems really inappropriate. Relief, sure; hopeful for future, maybe; celebrating - huh??

Feel the same way.

Seriously. This is like putting your dog to sleep. Necessary, for the best, but not a cause for celebration.

I'm pretty much a realist and in this situation there is much to be 'real' about but I agree with you, there is a sadness here and its origins go deep. There is a lot of good that I will remember about the Tedford era.

Espn says gone

As much as I wanted him gone after '09, I would have felt this little bit of sadness. But that part of me is numb, and I'm going to celebrate that he's gone. Nobody deserves over $1M per win, which is what he "earned" this year if you include his bonus for "coaching" the Nevada game. We got a new stadium, and he got well over $20M from Cal, so I'll call it even and look forward to someone reviving the program (again). Hopefully, the next person can bring us to the promised land at least one time. Overall win totals and mediocre bowls are meaningless to me.
