Our Egos are Easily Fed

It appears we’re going big-time, as we were recently received this email:

"Dear Goldenblogs–

We thought you’d be interested in the following Web site that went live today and features footage of former Golden Bear star Marshawn Lynch at a recent Nike photo shoot. You’ll be able to check out exclusive interviews, view behind-the-scenes videos, grab a draft countdown widget, scroll through a bevy of images and download the press kit containing the official press release on Lynch’s Nike signing and high-resolution imagery. Lynch is part of Nike’s 2007 rookie class that boasts nine of the most heralded prospects entering this year’s NFL draft including JaMarcus Russell, Brady Quinn, Adrian Peterson, Gaines Adams, Amobi Okoye, Calvin Johnson, Leon Hall and Greg Olsen. Please let us know if you have any questions.

www.nikerookieclass.com

Best regards,

Brandan for Nike"

That’s right, we’re big time.  And I do have some questions - where’s Daymeion?  (Oh, right, he’s probably still running the 40.)  Of note, the site tells us how Marshawn’s mother sits in the same seat every time, and he has to wait until he hears his mother saying to have a good game before he feels ready to go out and play.  Awwwww.  He continues to go on about the level of preparation required to play in the NFL.  Also, Marshawn looks really, really, really thug.  Observe:

Amazing.  That such a calm, bullish man could exhibit such a fierce gaze and playing style.  Anyway, there’s not too much else to the website for now; enjoy listening to those few clips that exist on the website, but I imagine more content will be available there after the draft once we know where each prospect is going.  I’m calling Marshawn at 12 to the Bills now.

We interrupt

the regularily scheduled post about the Spring Game to bring you this Mental Note.

 

Mental Note:  Build a time machine, go back in time, and strongly (strongly!) encourage young TwistNHook to become an absurdly good swimmer and that Cal is the best university in the world (that shouldn’t too tough).  Also, that it’s OK to become a Warriors fan, because it’s gonna work out eventually (BARON!).

 

Bee Tee Dub, in a no way related story, let’s take a look at the front cover of California Magazine (the magazine for California and Californians!) about great Cal alumni.

 

 

 

Ok, so who knows how to build a time machine?
