A Salute to Our Bruin Warriors (14 clicks)
With the Fourth of July just around the corner, I thought something along these lines would be rather appropriate. While Bruins may have their differences, especially when it comes to what part of California they come from, or what NBA team they support, there is a group of Bruins all of us can get behind and support.

Name Recognition (43 clicks)
I know it's the offseason because I'm having way too much fun (and trouble) with this game.
The rules are simple: Type the name of every school in the BCS conferences in 12 minutes or less. You can type them in any order, and several variations of a school's name will count. It's the honor code here, so no looking at a map or anything like that.

Basketball Dream Match-ups (34 clicks)
After reading N’s post about the home and home series with Kansas in ’09-’10, I remembered a post by M from a while back about football rivalries that aren’t, but should be. This got me wondering, what basketball rivalries are out there that aren’t but should be? I’m going to take it a little farther than that and not only limit it to rivalries, but home and home series as well.

Ben Ball 08-09: Not Taking Anything For Granted (86 clicks)
As excited as w all are about Howland's K extension and the three straight Final-4s, we need to maintain our perspective wrt to our expectations for next season. Already I am getting the sense that some UCLA basketball fans are taking the Final-4 appearances for granted and that they are expecting a reserved spot in Detroit next April.
