Killing a Nation

Today was my third day of training and the big news out of Bend is that its ok for me to tell stories about the taxpayers I encounter as long as I don't use their real names. So for instance I can tell the story about "Taxpayer A" who stole the payroll tax from his business and used it fund illegal jet ski races on his private lake in Central Oregon.

In other news Oregon hosts Alex Brink and Washington State this weekend at Autzen Stadium. Its pretty sad that Washington State has been forced to start a QB from the Midwestern League for the past 4 years. I mean if Alex Brink is your schools all-time leading passer it doesn't say much about your team.

Despite Washington State's lowly status, Oregon is vulnerable right now and I see WSU hanging around for several reasons.

1) WSU does have a pretty good offense and Oregon's defense is in the gutter right now.

2) Oregon is Rich, Cool, and 4-1

3) Jonathan Stewart has a sprained thumb and will fumble at least twice

4) Oregon might wear white helmets (which have finally been approved)

I think Oregon will win, but it will be a close game for three quarters before Oregon scores 21 unanswered points in the 4th quarter to win by 20+. Oregon 42 WSU 21
