I love Washington until they beat Notre Dame in two weeks!

and still believe that the NCAA sanctions handed down in the early 90s have contributed to their serious downfall for the past 20 years. The Bears still have to get by $c themselves, but you’re right… if both Cal and Washington continue to play at the level they have been, December will be very interesting.

As a side note, what’s up with the Pac-10 no longer respecting the cross-town / cross-state rivalries as the final game of the season?!?!

This is incredible. This required a lot of planning. First, the person creates a whole bunch of usernames because each username posted no more than 2 things. Then, he/she has every username join the respective blog (covering all 32 blogs means at least 64 usernames, probably closer to 100.). Then, he/she copied and pasted that spam message to every one of the spam posts (some with different titles), and had the computer power to post all of them basically at once. Then, the spammer did a second round with all of the usernames. All of this took around 20 minutes.

It’s not right and a big pain in the butt, but sometimes you gotta admire someone able to do that, just like those guys who robbed a computer store clean in like 30 seconds.

Is it possible to ban an IP Address instead of a username, Shake? That would make sure the spammer doesn’t come back.
