The character of oregon's team, or lack thereof.

After thinking about the images from last night's game, my opinion or oregon is pretty firm.
1) They're so arrogant that they won't take 3 points in the red zone. They just assume they're going to convert on 4th down so they go for it. I've criticized Sark for this cavalier and un-James like approach to football, and oregon deserves the same criticism. When you're playing a great defense like stanford, you don't take scoring position for granted, especially considering that stanford doesn't have a high-powered offense. 3 points matters, dipshits.
2) huff crying tells me that they're soft. I've seen a lot of teams lose this year and over the past several years. Sure, huff's emotion shows that he cares. Fine. But there's an old boxer's adage that the character of a fighter is not shown when he is kicking the shit out of somebody else (as oregon often does). Rather, it's when somebody is kicking the shit out of him. huff is a big grandstander and likes to showboat after touchdowns. So how does he compose himself when he is on the other end of the beating? He sits on the bench with his head in his hands, and then he cries.
3) deanthony thomas laughing on the sidelines tells me they're devoid of character and unity. Even the ESPN crew talked about this. While huff is sobbing, dat is acting like he's hanging out with friends at a high school dance. Not a care in the world. Pretty shitty.
They're arrogant, soft, and devoid of character and unity. Sure they're all full of shits and giggles when they're beating people, but this is their behavior when things don't go their way.
Whatever, it's oregon. I'm not surprised.

I promise once the Larry Coker gimmes are over you'll have plenty to make fun on.
Huff crying only tells me he's passionate about the game and doesn't like to lose. You're probably one of those assholes that tells your kids (if you've got any) that it's not ok to cry or to 'be soft,' and by doing so perpetuate the fallacy that it's not ok to cry or show any emotion if you're a man. Your male children will end up emotionally stunted and unable to deal with the shit life throws at them.
I agree that Thomas is arrogant and he should shut his fucking hole before the game. Don't talk big if you show up playing like a pansy.
DAT is electric, but the past two games have made me question how valuable he has actually been. Oregon got by just fine without him, and I couldn't help but think he was soft the past two games. Maybe he is still hurt, but my opinion of him has gone down.
I don't know how they are soft, devoid of character, etc. They lost a game to a pretty good Stanford team. They didn't play well. They have gone to four BCS bowl games in a row, and will probably go to another this year.
Whatever. I'm right, and you know it. Your program has always lacked class. oregon has a ton of talent. Nobody can deny that. But it's built on glitz, cockiness, and smoke-and-mirrors. On top of it, your fans are complete trash (as a former oregon player basically said).
When stanford lost to Utah this year, they didn't act like your guys did last night. I'm no stanford fan, but it's the truth.
Oregon has beaten the fuck out of Washington ten years in a row. I don't mean close, hard fought games, they are physical fucking beat downs.
Stanford beat some kids with pride. Next year Sark and his Fucktard coaching staff will come to Autzen and get their asses pushed in for the eleventh time in a row.
Your players lack confidence, they don't work hard, and when they get down they give up. Worry about that while Oregon hits their fifth consecutive BCS game. Slingblade is no Chip, but he can't be much worse than Sark, brah.
Talk to me when our guys are doing the lawnmower while they blow a lead to a WAC team.
That being said OREGON the program is healthy and kicks everyone's ass except those schools with exceptional defensive front sevens so all these observations of character flaws for going for it on 4th down and shit are stupid. It has nothing to do with arrogance and more to do with simple math on how many points you statistically end up with for going for it more often.
Backside intel off twitter - fowl play in Tallahassee. Some mention of two well connected businessmen with ties to Pac-12 refs. I kid you not
Like I said Quooks and Doogs are way more similar than either side wants to admit.
