In this sports roundup, everybody lost!

San Jose State? Lost 50-7 to #5 Ohio State. In consolation, they got $500,000 for their troubles.

Cal? Lost 30-28 to USC. They led 21-3 in the 2nd quarter, but a touchdown, which replays revealed wasn't even a catch at all, by USC was the turning point. Break out the lights next week as UCLA comes to town. Cal's stadium doesn't have lights because the people who live even further up the hill say it will block their views of the bay. As a result, this is the first time they've put up the temporary lights in about 3 years. Game time is 4 pm and will be shown on TBS.

Oak Grove? Lost a close one to Pioneer 23-20. Pioneer! They suck. Now OG sucks for losing to them. Next week is arch rival Santa Teresa in the homecoming game. Let's see how lame the floats are this year. I should know, I worked on them every year. It's the first time they've played ST on homecoming since my freshman year there. The theme for our float that year? Sink the Saints. Lame, yes, but we did win that year, so you can imagine how much worse the other people's floats were. In related news, the OG band and colorguard got first place at their competition in Modesto.

The Sharks? Lost 5-3 to Vancouver as shown to the left. They really need to sign those holdouts.

The Giants? Lost 5-4 to the Cardinals. They'd better watch out because a Cardinals win in Game 4 will tie up the series. Luckily, that didn't happen and the Giants have the chance to win the series and face the Angels in the World Series tomorrow night. They won tonite 4-3.

Finally, the Raiders. Lost 28-13 embarrassingly to the winless Rams. No comment since I'm a 49ers fan. (The Niners play on Monday night.) But since most of my friends and relatives are Raiders fans, hahahahaha.
