Improbable

While talking to one of my undergraduates at the photocopier today, she informed me that she had yelled herself hoarse at the Arizona-Arizona State game Friday. I told her I'd watched the game and rooted for the 'Cats, even though my Pac-10 allegiances lie with Cal. "Oh, that makes sense. They're a lot better than us at football." I explained that my devotion was based on personal history rather than performance. And then I reflected on the horror of the 2001 season. Maybe they should perform a live sacrifice or two in Jeff Tedford's honor. Then again, there's always the hurricane-delayed Southern Mississippi game this Saturday to bring my thought balloon back to earth.
