No 'Big Dance' for Cal Bears: 'One and Done'

It seems basketball itself is the interruption to stop this blog's interruption.  USC managed to rout the Bears in the first round (hence the 'one and done' title) of the Pac-10 Conference Tournament yesterday and ended the season and hopes for hearing chants of "hip, hip Jorge"* become part of the national lexicon as the Cal Bears (and fans, too)hoped to march through the madness until the Final Four; okay, okay, realistically the fans we're hoping to at least get to the Sweet Sixteen, exceeding last year's performance. 


Selection Sunday is March 13; Daylight Savings Time officially begins as well.




*"Hip, hip Jorge" was this season's cheer for the outstanding performance of Cal junior Jorge Guiterrez, 6'3" guard, and coach Mike Montgomery's first scout selection as his first-year Cal coach, after 16 years with arch rival Stanford!
