Wow! Just got out of the car after a 2 hour drive. Obviously missed the latest news.

Is that right? I thought I heard he is still on the practice squad, but got a pay raise to the league min. $495k/yr.

Nothing says happy 15th anniversary like listening to Doug Marsh and Sott Kelly in a hotel room from your husbands phone in Calistoga. Not the W I was hoping for, but go Ags!

Yeah, I didn't do enough digging. When we purchased our tickets for the Stanford game last year, you could buy a parking pass for $25 to park in the dirt lot. The $60 "day pass" offered on the UCD website is obviously special event parking and you're paying a premium for a "Team Aggie Pass." False alarm... Move along, nothing to see here ;-)

On a side note, looks like they need to update the seating chart... Section 107 - Band-Uh!

Thanks. "Single Game" parking passes are listed at $60 for Lot 53. Seemed ridiculous. $60 total is much more reasonable ($10 for my son, $40 for me, and $10 for parking).

What's Bland's status for this game? Any word on why he didn't play against Cal?

I was trying to explain to my 12 year old son why the band wasn't at the game Saturday. He was really looking forward to seeing the band do their thing. Any word on when they'll be back?

Exactly. Thanked him for all he does. My son (in the middle, celebrating turning 12 today), was holding his UC Davis hat in his hand. "Hey Doss!" "Oh, now you want to put your hat on... ;-)"

Ooph, back to back drops by Doss.

Stanford had a very similar policy last season. There were a few really upset people outside of the metal detectors that weren't aware. We're sitting in Section EE (which has bench back seats). When I saw the notice about no "Cushions with metal hardware," I made sure my dad had a seat with some back support.

Getting fired up. Taking my son and his buddy for his 12th bday, and meeting up with my dad, brother and nephew. Should be a good time!

Two games in to the preseason, and Doss' stats look pretty good.

5 catches for 38 yards. All other receivers have 1-2 catches.

“He’s going to get a lot of playing time in the postseason.”

I hope that's not a typo and Gruden is right ;-)

Hopefully the slip and slide drills pay off.

Is he still on that same team, or even in the same league? I saw he was suppose to play in Australia, but that fell through and he is going to stay in Europe.

Maybe I've been lucky, but I've found street parking for a few events at Cal. I take a left off of Piedmont a few blocks before the stadium. But maybe that was during the summer and an entirely different situation.

I always love the focus on academics. Makes me proud to be an Aggie. Headline from the article:
"Senior biomedical engineering major becomes the first Aggie to be drafted into the WNBA"

Ouch. I'm at the game with my son. Tough to watch.
