Stay Classy California
This is just a small reminder to stay classy on Saturday. While I didn’t go to Tennessee, all the Cal fans who did kept saying the same thing: everyone was really nice and friendly. Let’s return the kindness and hospitality. There’s no need for any unnecessary or unwarranted insults and harassment. Smiles and "Go Bears!" will do just fine. I’m sure all of you guys/girls have had bad experiences at other Pac-10 schools. Let’s not stoop down to their level. With an increasingly successful football program comes more attention and scrutiny. Let’s not make fools out of ourselves. Remember who you represent - the #1 public university in America, The University of California. We’re educated, classy, and civilized, so let’s act that way.
See everyone at the game. Be loud. Be classy. Let’s send Tennessee home with a big L and a positive Pac-10/Cal experience (except for the losing part).
Go Bears! Beat Tennessee!!!
Ah man, no “you have a cute cousin for a wife” jokes?

Well said Hydro.
Perhaps another reminder would be to not engage with the tree-sitters or associated protestors. The last thing any of us need is an embarassing scirmish caught on film (and as can be seen from their litany of YouTube videos, they love to video tape stuff).

Ken is right. Leave the tree-sitters alone. Harassment of the tree-sitters can only hurt our cause and draw more attention to their activities.

“Cute cousin for a wife”??? Is that the best you got? Why not ask us if we get divorced is she still my sister? Or if you can tell a snobby Vol fan by the fact that he wears socks to church.
