Speeding bullets

By David Dunch

You've got to feel sorry for Evansville and Alabama. Both schools sent their women's soccer teams to sunny California last weekend and got absolutely spanked by our phenomenal team. They must have felt like citizens of Atlanta as General Sherman was marching toward the Atlantic. Our squad rolled up 18 (that's not a misprint - 18!) goals in two games. In fact, I think I actually scored a goal. Anything less than an undefeated season and a national championship for this team is out of the question.

=It's more than a little ironic - not bad, just ironic - that the school's brand new fitness center, which will have its Grand Opening on Friday, is named after a former football coach Pat Malley, yet the school doesn't have a football team. Oh well. Just something to ponder.

The NBA will be starting soon. They have a lot of work to do to repair the damage done by last season's lockout. The league lost a lot of fans, including a certain sports editor of a Bay area college newspaper.

I saw For Love of the Game recently. Great movie, but it doesn't have much to do with baseball. The ads are deceiving. However, I wasn't angry at all because the film featured the gorgeous Kelly Preston. I'd take her over baseball any day.The softball team is angry with me for my witty remark in last week's column about them. Hey, prove me wrong. Shut me up by your play this year.The men's water polo team played in a tournament called the UC Santa Cruz Slugfest last weekend. Great name.
