GO DUCKS

I can hardly contain my joy at being in the U.S. for a college football season for the first time in eight years. It's a little irritating to be on the East Coast as the Pac-10 games start as late as 10pm if they are aired at all, but I'm not going to complain. Not too loudly.

The Hubs, on the other hand, is gutted. Rugby, specifically internationals and Six Nations, is not on TV at all and it's blocked online; we're assuming because of licensing fees. We're hoping that might change now that rugby is in the 2016 Olympics and the U.S. will have to improve their team as god forbid there's an event we don't compete in.

Alas, it's not a perfect world. Though it will be a little more perfect when UO are at the Rose Bowl this year.

GO DUCKS!
