Understanding that today will drag on forever, The Bear Insider has provided a few ideas on how to spend your Friday:
Listen to band music - a sprinkling of USC here and here and a dose
of Cal's here,
here, and here; and then support the band.
If it's before 12:45 p.m., PST - bid on a replica of
Memorial Stadium.
Re-read this article written by Coach Jeff Tedford about the 2002 turnaround; and in the
spirit of equal time, read this article by Pete Carroll about USC football.
Buy a #8
jersey.
Look at this map
and be glad you're not in the middle of it.
Since there's no bowl game to plan for, scout out airfares and
hotel rates in Tucson, Seattle, Jackson, and New Orleans.
Become a BCS nerd.
If you sat up in press row tomorrow, at your seat you'd find a set of Cal,
USC,
and Pac-10
game notes.
Read every newspaper you can - San Francisco
Chronicle, Oakland
Tribune, Contra Costa
Times (free reg. req.), USA Today,
Los Angeles Times (free
reg. req), Los Angeles Daily News and Long Beach Press Telegram.
Gag mightily.
Enjoy a good fark.
Relive the Free Speech Movement.
Print out a Bear
Backer application.
And finally, if you're superstitious, don't click here or here.
