At this point UCLA and Utah have earned a top 10 ranking. Amazed TCU didn't drop after their performance.

Coaches poll out. Cal #25 Ducks #24 Trees #21 SC #16 Utah #12 UCLA #10

Am I the only one who doesn't think the new jumbotron is that great? An obvious upgrade but damn.. Still pretty weak compared to some out there. Why not go big or go home?

Just when you thought this couldn't get any more ****ed up. Someone took the rape kit from evidence, opened it, and left it on the front door of the victim's mothers house. Wow.

Yeah good call. Wasn't necessarily referencing the Stanford game for offensive problems. Mainly the overall tenure of Sark. The offense still hasn't been balls to the wall. Granted, its much better than Kiff's.

Damn you're right. Had OC mixed with QB Coach/Assistant HC. I could have sworn he was calling the plays for one year (2005??)

How the hell is Gatto still in the Pioneer League?

Rebel scum, GB.

Congrats Taylor!

Gibson is going to spend the year in San Diego from what I'm reading. Makes sense. Give him full playing time and let him develop. Make a nice run with Freddie this season and get a monster haul for him next offseason perhaps.

Gibson ink'd to a 3 year 2.3 AAV extension.

What happened to the Sark that ran those juggernaut offenses and attacked from start to finish a decade ago? That's who I was hoping for when he took the job. No where near that.

Have at it gents. The 2015-16 t-shirt motto for the Ducks is "Close is not good enough"

A 4x4 animal style with a Guinness is the dream.

The 2006 Cardinals were by far the worst hunk of shit ever to 1- make the playoffs and 2- win the whole damn thing. **** that team.

Ryan Kesler officially given the 2nd "A"

Weaver did help the team. He got thrown out early.

I'd go 40% Dipoto/Arte 30% Players 30% Scioscia Dipoto/Arte- There's only so much I can blame JD for without including Arte into the conversation. Arte handcuffed JD with potential moves thanks to the Pujols/CJ/Hamilton deals. Without at least Hamilton's deal, we might have Greinke or another impact bat right now. Without being able to spend much money, Jerry went out and did basically nothing at 2B. Decided to let it be a 3 man fight for the spot with 3 guys who have no business being a starter on a 98 win team a year before. He didn't do anything with the rotation. Richards, Shoe, and Santiago weren't going to repeat their 2014 seasons. I said it from the very beginning that in no way can you bank on that nor should you. I was very disappointed that we didn't bring in another arm. Players- What can you say? A very streaky team that has overall been very mediocre. The offense lives and dies on the bat of Mike Trout. The same Trout who refuses to swing at the first pitch if his life depended on it. Erick Aybar who at times has a negative IQ on the field. Having absolutely nothing at 2B. Our catchers being absolutely terrible at the plate. Pujols' body breaking down right in front of us. Weaver sucking, CJ sucking. Richards, Shoe coming no where near to their 2014 performances. Santiago falling hard back to Earth after a fluke 1st half. A lot of this stuff can't be fixed by management. Its on the players to step up and perform and they haven't. Scioscia- Some of his decision making (particularly with the bullpen) infuriates me. Continuing to roll Salas out there in high pressure moments and time after time getting shelled is beyond me. The lack of panic even in mid September when we're 4 games out. Taking 2 months to finally move Kole back to leadoff was a joke. I just don't think Scioscia has the team anymore. Again, that's just my personal belief. A change is needed.

Lose some weight, fatty.

Nate not wanting to get into a long argument? What's going on here...

Rookie camp underway at Anaheim Ice today. The big boys are there too. Early looks have Chris Stewart getting time with the Twins up top.

You're the real MVP for saying that with a straight face, Tank.

Ianada? Jesus Christ, AO. You never fail. Bravo.
