When I expressed my surprise at the 7:30 pm UCLA game start, I wasn't expressing disappointment. I live in California, so 7:30 pm is great for me. My son's asleep by 8:30 pm, so I have theÂ whole second half to myself.

I was just surprised that it wasn't a 6 pm start, which used to be the kickoff times for most (all?) Thursday ESPN games in the not-too-distant past.

If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
