10. Going to other Pac-10 arenas and listening to the announcers do half as good a job as our announcer does. I think I left Mac Court with a headache after listening to whoever had the microphone stumble through the entire game like Yogi Berra through an advice column. "When you come to a fork in the road, take it." Thanks, Mr. Berra.

11. Uneducated people at basketball games who point out a billion times that there are two Tarvers on the floor at the same time. Thanks. Next time I'll be sure to remind you and your friend that there are two drunken idiots standing behind me.

12. Sitting down at football games. Isn't it mandatory to stand on the bleachers at football games? I'm pretty sure every student has been doing that since freshman year of high school.

13. The OSU Softball Complex. Calling play-by-play is never any fun when the place isn't named after someone famous or at least a big-name company. From now on, I'm going to refer to it as the Miranda Diamond at McGowan Park.

14. Pac-10 officials. Do I need to explain this one?

15. Those sports writers who make fun of Frosty the Turnover Man's hair even after he is in the NFL. That's so weak. Who would stoop to such a level?
