Late night at SDSU vs. TCU
Paul pic, originally uploaded by mclanea. We had a good time at the game last night. But a 7:30 PM tip off is just a little too late for a 7 year old. Context: This picture was taken after everyone had left the sold out arena. We were seated directly next to the student section.…

Basketball fever
I’m an Indiana kid. Growing up, I played 21 from the time the neighbors driveway thawed until school started. Sometimes dozens of games per day. Not to sound like a John Cougar Mellencamp song, but we played until our fingers bled. Then we’d have lunch and play until it got dark. Where I went to…

Fixing College Football
Mark Cuban is admirable for trying to fix college football. Let’s start with this: It’s broken. 2010 is case in point. In mid-January Oregon will play Auburn in a game labeled “the BCS championship game.” But, if TCU wins the Rose Bowl they deserve to be co-national champions, too. We’ll simply never know who is…

Metrodome Collapse Video
Whoa. That was intense! Act of God? Or maybe, just maybe, there is a conspiracy! I kind of think that Minnesotans will do anything to see Brett Farve never play in their stadium again. This makes me giggle knowing that I’m looking for sunscreen on my way to the Chargers vs. Chiefs game today. But…

San Diego State Aztecs Go to 7-2
Who would have thought that the college team in town would be the best team to play at Qualcomm Stadium this year? I know I didn’t. I took Megan and Paul to the Aztecs game last night and had a blast. We didn’t get home until about 11:00 PM, but I think we’re slowly making…

SDSU beats Air Force
When I decided to buy season tickets to San Diego State I have to admit that I did it on a whim. In 2008, they were horrible. But they got a new coach and I figured that for less than $100 per seat, I couldn’t lose. My hope has always been that my kids would…

San Diego State Aztecs taking the field
Some differences in the pre-game stuff worked out between game 1 & game 2. (Minor) The group of students who welcomed Monty the Aztec with his spear went over to the student section then made their way to the 50 yard line. Also, they changed the timing of when the alumni came out to stab…

SDSU taking the field against Nicholls State
Last night, Paul and I went to see San Diego State beat the tar out of Nicholls State. (It’s in Louisiana. I had to look it up, too) The final score was 47-0 but Paul and I left at the beginning of the 4th quarter when it was 30-0. If you listen to Brady Hoke,…
