EWU grads vs. Oregon alums
There are Eastern graduates everywhere you turn around here.
And while the numbers are much smaller, there actually are a fair number of people in the Spokane area who attended the University of Oregon.
So it’s not all that unusual for alums of the two colleges to find themselves in the position of being co-workers. Which raises a question.
How should they discuss Saturday’s football game?
A) Unbridled trash talk. B) “That’s a nice little team you’ve got there.” C) “Who is Vernon Adams?” D) “Well, we know what would happen in nature if these birds met.” E) Don’t bring it up. F) Wear Nike logo apparel. G) “Well, it’s not like playing Michigan State or USC. Who is Eastern’s big rival, Cattle Ranch Tech?” H) “Were Flounder and Otter students when you were there?” I) “I see EWU is trying new uniform looks. Wonder where they got that idea?” J) “I don’t think we will win, but I certainly hope several of your key scholar athletes get injured.” K) Other.
